Innocent Feelings
23
Jealous
After a few hours of flight, it was a relief when the jet landed at the end of the road, just by the beach. Videl cracked her neck, a bit sore after piloting for so long, while her classmates wasted no time rushing out of the jet and heading for the beach. Some even stripped and ran into the sea, too overjoyed to wait to get in the water even though the weather was cooling down and the sun would be setting soon.
By the time she got up from the pilot seat, the jet was almost empty: only Gohan stayed behind, patiently waiting for her with that gentle smile of his. She grinned at him when he extended his hand and rushed to his side to take it in hers, beaming up at him as they got off the jet together and joined the others.
The sight of the sea, the gentle waves crashing on the shore, the water glimmering in the sun, the pleasant breeze bringing the smell of the ocean to her nostrils… It felt invigorating. Videl took off her sneakers and her socks to feel the sand on her feet. Gohan did the same, then wrapped his arms around her from behind and rested his chin on top of her head, letting out a sigh of content.
"I'm glad you made my mom change her mind about letting me come too," he said softly. "I really would've missed out."
"What's the point of going to the beach without you? You had to come." She breathed in deeply, a content smile playing on her lips, as she leaned into his embrace. "The sun is setting."
Gohan hummed in reply, and they both fell silent as the sun slowly made its descent towards the blue sea. The lazy clouds around the burning star took up a lovely orange and purple color as the sky darkened little by little.
"I love you," Gohan murmured in her ear, and Videl closed her eyes for a moment as her heart swelled in pure bliss.
"I love you," she said back in the same low tone, raising her head to catch his eyes. She was met with his tender smile, and then Gohan lifted her chin and dipped his head towards her, kissing her slowly, like he was savoring the very taste of her lips. Videl felt her whole body tingle, and she let out a sigh of delight.
Could this moment be any more perfect?
ooOoo
The stars shone brightly in the night sky when the group of teenagers headed to Videl's beach house where they would be staying for the weekend.
Like everything Hercule Satan owned, his beach house was extravagant and luxurious. It had over thirty bedrooms, which was more than enough for the class of twenty-six plus Nevy. It also had a giant kitchen with a stacked up fridge and a bar counter with stools, a dining room with a huge oak table, a living area, as well as a recreation room with the latest game consoles, the most expensive flat screen TVs, and even arcade games. Every room had tons of luxurious decorations, from famous paintings to sculptures representing the man of the house himself, to the glistening chandeliers hanging from the ceilings.
The teenagers were in complete awe at the place and couldn't believe their luck to be in the same class as the one and only Videl Satan. To think they got to spend the weekend at her beach house!
"Hello, everyone," a perfectly well-groomed blonde man in his late thirties welcomed the class in the living area. "I'm Daniel, your butler for the weekend. Feel free to ask me anything and I'll tend to you as best as I can. Please refrain from making too much of a mess, however, as Master Satan would like to get his house back intact."
Most of the teens gaped at the man, unable to come to terms with the fact that they had a friggin' butler.
"Let me introduce you to the other members of the staff," the butler continued before clapping his hands loudly, and just then two women and another man walked into the room. He motioned to the youngest of the group, a red-haired woman in her twenties. "This is Gabriel," he said. He followed with the woman standing next to her, an older lady in her fifties. "This is Ariel. And this is Raphael," he finished, showing the brown-haired young man in his late twenties, early thirties. "We will make sure you have a wonderful time here."
"Thanks, guys," Videl said. "By the way, I don't think you've met my boyfriend," she added with a grin, tugging at Gohan's hand. The boy in question tensed, as he wasn't fond of being the center of attention; still, he bowed respectfully at the staff.
"I'm Gohan, it's a pleasure to meet you."
"My, my, you got yourself a real gentleman, Videl," Gabriel commented with a devious smile.
"It's Miss Videl," the older maid scolded her colleague, frowning disapprovingly at her familiarity with the boss' daughter.
"Videl is just fine," the girl waved it off. "Anyway, you guys didn't happen to make some dinner for us, did you? We've spent all evening at the beach and we're starving!"
"But of course," Daniel said with a low bow. "We will bring everything to the dining room in a moment."
"Actually, I think we'd rather eat outside."
"That is a very good choice, Miss Videl. If you'd give us a moment to set everything up outside…"
"Do you need some help?" Gohan offered, taking a step forward. "It can't be easy to carry enough food and cutlery to feed all of us."
"Oh, no, it's fine, thank you," Daniel refused politely.
"Are you sure? I'd really like to help."
"I think it's a great idea," Videl cut in, smiling at her boyfriend. "It'd be more fun if we all lent a hand. Right guys?"
The class agreed, some more reluctantly than others, but nobody would ever dare to contradict Videl. And neither could the butler, for that matter. While he was embarrassed to accept the help, he couldn't possibly say no to the young mistress.
ooOoo
With everyone's hunger sated, their bellies full and content, the teens had set blankets on the sand and relaxed on the beach, watching the calming sight of the waves crashing, letting the whisper of the sea lull them gently.
"Okay, I'm bored," Rubby declared, sitting up. "Let's play a game."
"Oh! Let's play truth or dare!" Erasa piped up, grinning deviously.
"You read my mind," Rubby smirked. "You guys up for it?"
Most agreed, some simply shrugged. Gohan, however, didn't like the idea of having to tell the "truth" no matter what, given his secrets, but he figured only Videl had ever suspected him. Just to be safe, he might need to choose "dare" every time, though.
"Who's starting?" Rubby asked.
"I suggested the game, so I'm going first," Erasa grinned. She turned to Videl. "Truth or dare?"
The brunette, settled in between her boyfriend's legs with her back to his chest and his arms around her, rolled her eyes at the predictable turn of event.
"Fine. I know you're dying for me to choose truth, so truth it is."
Erasa grinned wider, a devious glint in her eye, and Videl suddenly felt nervous, wondering if it was such a good idea to let her best friend ask her anything with the whole class present.
"Have you and Gohan done it yet?"
The boy in question choked on his saliva, which seemed to happen a lot when he was caught completely off guard… It seemed to be a frequent occurrence lately.
"Oh my God, Erasa, you can't ask her that," he croaked hoarsely.
But then he got redder than he'd ever looked, as Videl actually answered the question.
"No, we haven't," she said calmly, although her cheeks were flushed. "Now it's my turn. Truth or dare?" Videl asked her friend, not missing a beat.
Erasa rolled her eyes. She was about to answer but Videl cut her off before she could form a word.
"And what I mean is actually, dare or dare?"
Erasa giggled. "Fine. Dare."
"Strip down to your undies and go for a swim."
"But the water is freezing right now!" the blonde protested.
"Good. That way you're going to cool down and get your head out of the gutter."
"You meanie," Erasa complained, but got up to do as she was told nonetheless. Most of the boys whistled and catcalled her as she stripped, and the girl giggled. "You're gonna see me in a swimsuit tomorrow, that's barely any different!"
"I like the lace!" a guy shouted.
Erasa blushed slightly but still kept smiling, not ashamed in the least. She was proud of her body and she knew she looked great, and the reactions she was getting were doing wonders to her self-esteem, too. She was glad, however, that she was wearing a matching set today, and one of her best, too, since they were going off for the weekend. It was light pink with lighter colored laces on the edges, and a little white bow on the panties and between her breasts on her bra.
"Well, off I go!"
She ran and screamed as she dived into the freezing water. However, after just a few moments, the blonde had gotten used to the cold and was actually enjoying herself. She got out soon after, though, not wanting to catch a cold when the summer break just started, and a girl came up to her with a big towel.
"Thanks, Nevy," Erasa smiled at the younger teen, wrapping herself in the warm and comfy towel.
She sat back with the others and they resumed the game. Some disturbing truths were revealed, some embarrassing dares were taken up, some couples were even formed thanks to a few clever questions and dares. Although, Ruler regretted telling his friends of his old habit of torturing small animals and insects when he was a little kid.
"A lot of kids do that," Gohan offered. "My brother's best friend does that too, I think… I'm worried he might teach him his evil ways."
Everyone laughed.
"Hey, I just realized," Ruler said suddenly. "Nobody asked Gohan anything."
The half-Saiyan tensed. Way to thank him for his helpful input… But Gohan figured Ruler only meant to include him in the game and didn't think it would do any harm. How could he know how risky that kind of game could be for the half-alien superhero who unknowingly saved the world seven years ago?
"Right…" Gohan laughed nervously.
"I'll ask him," Nevy volunteered, smiling sweetly. "Truth or dare, Gohan?"
"Uhh dare."
"Hmm…" Nevy pretended to be thinking hard about it. "Okay, I got it. Kiss a girl other than Videl."
Gohan paled. His blood ran cold. His lungs stopped working for a moment. "Wh… What?"
"Kiss another girl," Nevy said again, shrugging. "It's not a big deal, and it's just a game. I'm sure Videl gets that, right?"
But Videl wanted nothing more than to strangle the fake blonde right now for even suggesting the idea. However, she didn't want to be a party pooper, and the dark-haired girl swallowed thickly, repressing her urge to scream in protest.
"…Of course," she said through gritted teeth.
"See?" Nevy beamed. "And I'm even letting you choose who you want to kiss."
Most of the girls perked up at that, looking at Gohan expectantly. Videl clutched the blanket on the sand, her knuckles turning white. She clenched her jaw, trying with all of her might to keep her temper in control. She wanted nothing more than to beat the crap out of Nevy, and all those girls eagerly hoping Gohan would kiss them, too. Damn it. Damn them all. This couldn't be happening.
Gohan wasn't coping much better… He was paralyzed. He couldn't comprehend what was happening. Why was Nevy asking him that? Didn't she realize how appalled he was at the mere idea of kissing any other mouth than Videl's? And in front of her, too? Why was Nevy asking him to do such an awful thing in front of his girlfriend? Was it because she wanted to prove her point from the other day? Even so, after everything he'd told her about how he felt about Videl… How could she ask him that?
"I…" He swallowed hard. He couldn't do it. No way. "I'm choosing truth."
"Hey, that's not how it works," Nevy started to protest, frowning at the boy.
"Cut it out, Nevy," Sharpner growled, glaring harshly at his cousin. "I didn't bring you here so you could mess with my friends."
The girl pouted, crossing her arms. "It's just a game. No need to take this so seriously. What's the big deal anyway? A kiss doesn't have to mean anything."
But Sharpner ignored his cousin and turned to Gohan. "Did you ever cheat on a test?"
Sighing in relief, Gohan grinned, feeling Videl relaxing in his arms. "Of course not!"
"You're supposed to tell the truth no matter what, Brains. Come on, admit it, I bet you've cheated at least once."
"Nope. Never needed to."
"Nerd."
Everyone laughed. Gohan chuckled, thanking his friend with a nod. Sharpner nodded back at him, and mouthed an apology on his cousin's behalf.
"Don't worry about it," Gohan mouthed back.
"Okay, Gohan, it's your turn to ask," a guy declared. "Who do you choose?"
After some thought, the boy grinned and looked down at his girlfriend, comfortably leaning back against his chest, all snuggled up to him. "Videl. Truth or dare?"
She raised an eyebrow at him. "Truth," she replied, figuring that was what Gohan wanted her to choose.
"What do you like about me?"
His grin got wider as he watched his girlfriend get completely red in the face. "Geez… You didn't need the game to ask me that…"
"Yeah, but it seemed like the perfect opportunity, and I've realized that you never really told me… well, why me?"
"Geez, girl," Erasa commented. "You never told him? After everything he said to you when he asked you out?"
"Oooohhh, what do you mean?" a girl asked eagerly.
"Hey, I told you that in private," Videl frowned at her best friend. She sighed. "Anyway…"
Videl knew she had to answer. It wasn't like telling Gohan bothered her, but did he have to ask her in front of their whole class? Hadn't they been the center of attention enough as it was since they got together?
Gohan tightened his arms around her, making her look up at him. She blushed and tried to forget about their audience, smiling shyly at the handsome young man as she proceeded to answer his question.
"I like… your smile, and your eyes, and how they shine when you look at me. I like the way I feel when I see myself through your eyes. I like that you always try to do the right thing… like when you decided not to keep any secrets from me when we got together." She cupped his cheek, and, slowly, the world around them seemed to fade away, and it felt like they were alone, just the two of them. "I like that I can be myself with you, and that I know you'd never judge me. I like that you're smart, and cute, and adorably awkward, and that we always have fun together. I like that you understand how much crime fighting means to me, even though I know how worried you get every time I go off helping the police. And, most of all, Gohan, I love your heart." She touched his chest as she said that, feeling his erratic heartbeats against her palm. "Your kindness. Your gentleness. It always makes me melt."
Unable to resist, Gohan leaned in and kissed her deeply. Whistles, catcalls, clapping, laughter sounded off from all around them, but in that moment neither of them cared. Videl melted, just like always, as the boy she was so desperately in love with showed her just how much he loved her back from the gentle way he touched her.
Nevy grumbled to herself in her corner, unnoticed among the crowd. Did Videl really like Gohan that much? It was so frustrating. Sharpner said she had bad tastes in guys, but geez, this was worst than she had thought.
Still, it was just puppy love. Nevy knew it wouldn't last. She gave them a few more months, tops. Hopefully, Videl was going to dump that nerd's sorry ass sooner than later. Nevy may not know Gohan very well but he was way too nice, and maybe Videl liked that about him, but to her it was just annoying as hell. People like him tended to get on her nerves.
And she was still peeved that his reluctance to kiss another girl forced Sharpner to take his side, and now he was mad at her because that nerd couldn't do his dare. She loved her cousin, but really he ruined everything. Surely if Videl had seen her boyfriend kiss another girl it would have led to tension between them. Why was Sharpner friends with that guy anyway? Since when did jocks hang out with nerds in high school?
Ah, well, she just needed to be patient. Their relationship would blow up on its own eventually. And, if by some stroke of bad luck, they actually stuck it out together… Well, she would just have to take the matter into her own hands.
She grimaced at the still kissing couple. "Get a room, you two!" she shouted, making her tone sound playful.
At least it worked. Gohan and Videl finally broke apart, blushing slightly through the dreamy smiles they both had plastered across their faces.
Nevy repressed the urge to gag. Ugh. What an eyesore.
ooOoo
Gohan was smiling at the ceiling, thinking back about tonight, and more precisely, about the girl he loved. It was late, and they were planning to get an early start tomorrow morning, or in a few hours, he figured, but Gohan couldn't stop thinking about Videl. He didn't care that they had been the center of attention again, it had been worth it. Hearing everything Videl had said, kissing her to his heart's content… He was too happy to care about the rest. Besides, they were all friends, so did it even matter? Well, maybe a little, but right now Gohan's thoughts were only focused on his gorgeous girlfriend and the way her beautiful eyes had shone as she told him all those wonderful things, and the way it had felt to stop caring and kiss her, despite their audience.
The doorknob of his bedroom slowly turned, and the door creaked. Gohan didn't need to wait for it to open all the way to know who was behind it; he leaped out of the covers and rushed at the door just as Videl appeared, wearing a tank top and a pair of shorts. He wrapped her in his arms and kissed her eagerly.
"I was just thinking about you," he breathed against her lips, and grinned as he pulled back. "Then again, when I am not?"
She giggled into her hand. "I know, I have the same problem with you."
Gohan pushed the door shut and took Videl's hands in his, his eyes gleaming in the darkness as he looked at her.
"Stay with me tonight?" he whispered, and blushed slightly at the possible innuendo. "I mean, just to sleep."
She smirked. "Why do you think I came to your room? It's not every day that I get to spend the weekend off with my amazing boyfriend with no adult supervision. Not that I would have minded doing more than sleep…" she added with a sheepish grin and a light blush.
Gohan chuckled awkwardly. "As tempting as that sounds…" He tucked a few strands behind her ear, kissed her cheek, before whispering in her ear, "Not yet."
"You tease," she muttered, her face heating up.
He kissed her deeply, letting his fingers run through her long, raven locks. Gosh, he loved it when she had her hair down. Videl slowly moved her hands down from his neck, feeling his tense muscles, his perfectly carved pecs, his rock hard abs, through the fabric of his tee-shirt… before sliding her hands under the garment to feel his skin. Gohan pulled back from the kiss and hissed slowly, suddenly having trouble breathing. He grabbed her wrists to remove her hands from his chest – her touch was having too much effect on him. This was becoming too dangerous.
"Let's just… go to bed. We have to wake up early tomorrow."
She pouted in disappointment, and Gohan chuckled. Unable to resist, he leaned in to kiss her again, his hand tracing the line of her jaw. Videl moaned in pleasure, opening her mouth wider to taste him more, wrapping her arms around his neck.
When they pulled back, neither moved for a while as they basked in the afterglow.
"You're really making this hard for me," Videl whispered breathlessly after a few moments, tightening her arms around his neck. "I want you so much right now."
"I want you too, but…" He bit down on his lip.
"But what, Gohan? Haven't we waited enough?"
"It's just…" He gazed down at her, a tender smile on his lips as he stroked her cheek. "When the moment is right, we'll just… know, you know? And I want to wait for that perfect moment. It'll make our first time together that much more special."
Videl smiled in defeat. "Okay, I get it…" She sighed. "Let's go to bed, then."
He leaned in to brush his lips on hers, ever so slightly, savoring the taste of her lips one last time, before leading her to the bed. He lay down first, and opened his arms to welcome his girlfriend in between them. She giggled and readily complied, snuggling up to him as he wrapped his arms around her and rested his cheek on the top of her head.
It felt so… peaceful. Videl closed her eyes and smiled to herself, letting his strong, steady heartbeat lull her to sleep. Gohan was so warm and comfy. She could sure get used to this…
ooOoo
Slowly, he pushed the door open. Sharpner pinched his lips together to stop himself from snickering. "Shhh," he shushed his friends, Binder and Paper, who obviously had a lot more trouble keeping their mirth quiet.
Being on a break meant he could sleep in instead of getting up early every morning, but there were such occasions that were worth the trouble. Pulling a prank on his unsuspecting friends was one of those cases.
Gohan was still sleeping, as expected. His back was to them and the blanket covered most of his body. The three jocks tiptoed inside the bedroom, and Sharpner shushed his friends again who couldn't help giggling and snickering.
"Gimme the bucket," he whispered to the boys who were carrying the item together.
Sharpner grinned as he moved closer to the sleeping teenager, holding the bucket full of ice cold water. He looked at his friends over his shoulder as he got ready to throw the content on Gohan.
"One, two," they whispered together, "and three!"
Gohan's eyes flew open as alarms went off in his head and his instincts warned him that something was about to hit him. The water splashed on the bed and the trio of pranksters cheered and laughed loudly – but then they suddenly froze and gaped at the soaking wet and somehow empty bed.
"What the…?" Sharpner slowly turned his head. Gohan was standing in the middle of the room, carrying a still sleeping Videl in his arms.
"Sharpner, what the heck?" Gohan frowned.
"You… You guys slept together?" Paper uttered, his eyes wide in shock. Somehow the fact that Videl had been with Gohan in the bed made the boys forget about the feat the half-Saiyan had just accomplished. "I thought she said you guys haven't…?"
Instantly, Gohan's face flared up completely. "No!" he denied adamantly. "We just slept! With our clothes on!"
His loud protest made the girl in his arms wince, and she slowly blinked her eyes open. "What's going on?" Videl asked drowsily, her voice hoarse from sleep. "Why are you yelling?"
Gohan, still as red as a tomato, swallowed thickly before replying, "It's just… um… the guys tried to pull a prank on us."
"Hm?" she mumbled in confusion, still half-asleep. Her eyes shot open, however, when she turned her head and noticed the three boys standing in the bedroom.
The bedroom where Gohan was supposed to sleep – alone.
The boy in question let her down on the floor, and one look at his bright blush told Videl that the guys had visibly said something that embarrassed him. Well, who could blame them after finding her sleeping in his arms, in his bed? She knew very well how that looked, and Videl felt like crawling in a hole and hide there forever.
"We actually only meant to prank you, Brains," Sharpner smirked, crossing his arms. "We're not suicidal to try anything on Videl."
"Good for you guys, though," Binder grinned, wriggling his eyebrows suggestively.
"Yeah," Paper joined in. "You would've been stupid not to take advantage of the trip to do it."
"We didn't do anything!" Gohan protested furiously, getting redder by the second, his fists clenched at his sides. "And even if we had, it's none of your business!"
Sharpner snickered and walked over to Gohan to give him a slap on the back. "Hey, congrats, man. No need to feel embarrassed. You've finally become a man."
"Oh my God…" Gohan complained, hiding his face with his hand.
"We really didn't do anything," Videl sighed in exasperation at the jocks' insistence on the subject. "Gohan wants to wait."
Silence fell. All four boys stared at the girl, who just rolled her eyes.
"Seriously?" Binder said in disbelief.
"Man, what a waste," Paper sighed in dejection, deeply disappointed that his friends didn't have sex last night for some reason. "Do you know how rare an occasion like this is?"
"Anyway, I need to go get dressed," she said, and started walking towards the door. But Gohan caught her wrist before she could get too far. She tilted her head at him questioningly. "What is it?"
He started to say something, but then he closed his mouth and glanced nervously at the boys. "Guys, do you mind leaving us?"
Snickers and giggles followed the boys as they headed out. "There's still time before breakfast!" Paper called over his shoulder. "Don't waste it!"
Sharpner laughed and pushed his friend playfully. "Come on, walk faster."
The door closed at last. Videl sighed in relief, but Gohan had the brightest crimson flush taking up his whole face. "Geez, those guys…" he muttered.
Videl smiled, finding the sight of her boyfriend's awkward reaction endearing. She wrapped her arms around his neck, getting on her tiptoes to get closer to him. Gohan smiled and moved his arms around her waist in response.
"What is it you wanted to tell me?" she asked softly.
"Well… You were going to just go, without even giving me a kiss or anything."
Videl feigned a shocked look and gasped dramatically. "Blasphemy. I must correct my mistake immediately."
Gohan chuckled as they leaned in and shared a long kiss. Shots of electricity coursed through his skin, making his whole body tingle with heat. He moaned, cupping her face with his palms, deepening the kiss. His heart was racing in his chest, hitting his ribcage so hard it felt like it was trying to break through.
Sighing in relish, Gohan pressed his forehead against hers, a silly smile glued on his face. "Good morning," he murmured, his chest heaving.
"Good morning," Videl breathed out, keeping her eyes closed. "I slept like a baby snuggled up to you."
"Too bad we didn't get to wake up together."
"Next time. I intend to sleep in your arms as often as possible."
He laughed softly, stroking her cheek with his thumb. "Sounds good to me."
ooOoo
Videl took a deep breath, the smell of the ocean filling her lungs. She was wearing a white strapped top and light blue shorts over her red bikini, and she couldn't wait to show it to Gohan. She was also eager to see her sexy boyfriend in his swimwear, allowing her to devour his perfectly sculpted body with her eyes.
A strong gust of wind almost made her hat fly away, and she held it to her head to keep it from moving. She looked at Gohan who grinned at her, tugging at her hand to make her walk faster to join the others. He was obviously impatient to get there, and Videl wondered if he had the same reasons as her, or if he just wanted to have fun. Knowing Gohan, though, it was probably the latter.
Well, once she took off her clothes, the clueless boy wouldn't know what hit him.
Most of their classmates were already playing by the shore or went in the water, while the others stayed behind to relax and bath in the glowing sun. Gohan dropped his bag on the sand by a couple of sun loungers and turned to her with the biggest grin. Videl smirked, and proceeded to strip. She took off her hat, then her shorts, revealing her thighs and the red bottom of her bikini; then, she slowly took off her top. Her smirk widened as she set the garment on the sun lounger, relishing the sight of her boyfriend's flushed face, his wide eyes, and his gaping mouth.
But it seemed that he wasn't the only one enjoying the view. Whistles and catcalls sounded off around her, as the boys ogled her exposed body shamelessly.
"Damn, Videl, you're so hot," Sharpner whistled.
"Gohan, you lucky bastard!" Paper laughed. "And you're telling me you've never done this?"
Despite the bright blush on his face, Gohan scowled, sending a murderous glare to each boy staring lecherously at his girlfriend – which meant all of them. Something unpleasant was building up in his stomach, and before he could realize what he was doing, the teenage boy grabbed a big towel from his bag and came up behind Videl.
The girl in question blinked as an abundance of green fluffy cloth surrounded her before wrapping around her, effectively covering her bikini-clad body. She barely had time to give Gohan a questioning look when the boy lifted her up and put her over his shoulder before stomping off in a haste, keen to get away from the hormonal perverts drooling at his girlfriend.
Still on his shoulder, Videl snorted laughing into her hand. When he assumed he had gotten them far enough, Gohan set her down and immediately turned away from the towel-clad girl, covering his face with both his hands.
"Ah… I can't believe it…" he groaned into his palms.
Videl giggled, leaning over around him to look at him. His face was so red that even his large hands couldn't hide it completely. "Gohan?" she called his name, unable to hide the amusement in her voice.
He turned away from her again. "No, please, don't look at me right now. I'm so embarrassed… I can't believe I just did that! "
"Well, who would have thought?" Videl grinned, letting the big towel slid off her body. "You're the jealous type."
"It's not funny!" Gohan exclaimed, spinning around abruptly to look at her in distress and embarrassment, his face so red it was glowing in the sun. And the red somehow got even darker as he caught sight of his unbelievably hot girlfriend in her red skimpy bikini. "What the heck are you even wearing? It's way too revealing!"
She put her hands on her hips. "I told you I'd be wearing a bikini."
"But it barely covers anything!"
"That is the point of a bikini, silly." She sighed dramatically. "Ah, I'm so disappointed. To think I picked it out especially for you and you don't even like it."
Gohan flushed even more… somehow. "I never said… I mean, it's not that I don't like it," he mumbled, looking away awkwardly.
"Oh?"
He swallowed, and chanced a look at the girl. Gohan couldn't help letting his gaze travel all over her body, marveling at her beautiful skin, her long hair cascading on her shoulders and down her back, her voluptuous curves, her barely covered breasts, her flat stomach, her thin waist, her hips, her thighs, her legs… "I… I do like it. A lot. You look…" He sighed in defeat. "You look gorgeous. And hot – way too hot. I hate that those guys got to see you like this."
Videl took a step towards him. "Is that so?"
"I… I just couldn't stand how all those guys were practically drooling at you, and I just… I just…"
"You kidnapped me."
"I did not!" he protested vehemently. And then his shoulders slumped. "…I guess I did. I'm sorry. I don't know what got over me. I just…"
She took another step toward him, reaching up to touch his burning cheek. "Got jealous?"
"Yeah…" he admitted. "It came out of nowhere, I really didn't expect it. I never thought I could get so jealous." He sighed and offered her a smile. "I'm sorry."
She wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing up her body against his. Gohan got even more flustered. Videl wished he wasn't wearing his tee-shirt so she could feel his skin against hers.
"It's all right, Gohan, you don't need to apologize. Besides," she added with a devious smirk. "You're so cute when you get jealous."
He flushed again but grinned nonetheless. "You just love teasing me, huh?"
She grinned back at him, her blue eyes sparkling with mirth. "Yep! It's because you're so adorable when you're flustered."
Gohan chuckled and buried his face in the crook of her neck, breathing in the delicious smell of her skin, of her hair, his arms going around her to hold her firmly against him, reveling in the feel of her body.
Videl grabbed the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head swiftly. Gohan blinked at the abrupt movement, but his girlfriend only stared appreciatively at his gorgeously carved torso.
"You know, I kinda get it," she said, detailing each bulge of his magnificent, toned body. "I wouldn't want to share this," she moved her hand up and down towards him for emphasis, "with any other girl."
Gohan raised an eyebrow, the tug on his lips betraying his growing amusement. "Is that so?"
But it was short-lived as soft hands cupped his pecs, the touch lighting his skin on fire. Videl ran her fingers along his torso, and Gohan groaned at the feeling. And then she planted her lips on his chest, and Gohan thought he was losing his mind when she started leaving kisses all over his skin. He bit down on his lip when he felt her tongue on his nipple.
And his desire came alive, his swimming trunks tightening around his crotch.
She raised her gaze at him, her mouth still teasing his sensitive skin, and her glazed blue eyes struck him like a bolt of electricity. He got harder.
And he lost control.
Gohan kissed her hungrily, grabbing her butt with one hand while the other cupped her barely covered breast. He groped the beautiful girl boldly, restlessly, his lust for her taking control over him. Feeling his lungs scream for air, he detached his mouth from hers and gulped a few shallow breaths, watching her flushed face and her swollen lips with a smirk. He slid his hand under the triangle of her bikini top and pinched her nipple. His satisfaction grew as she arched her back and let out a long moan. Taking advantage of her position, he dived his mouth into her neck, eliciting more moans and sighs of pleasure out of his girlfriend. His desire was so intense it was becoming painful.
"G… Gohan…"
He moved his head down, leaving a wet, hot trail of kisses and licks on his way to her cleavage, making the girl shiver. Panting in between her breasts, Gohan put both his hands on her buttock to hoist her up, and Videl wrapped her legs around his waist in response. He put a knee down before sitting on the sand, his girlfriend straddling his lap. Gohan took advantage of the new position to access her chest better, and without warning he put his mouth around her nipple and flicked his tongue over it. She fisted his thick hair and arched her back, moaning and gasping at the feeling.
Videl rocked her hips, rubbing her wet crotch against his hard-on, the delicious friction making them groan in unison. Gohan couldn't take it anymore, he lay the beautiful temptress on her back on the sand and kissed her hard, moving his hands to fondle her voluptuous breasts, while pushing his covered erection deeper against her bikini bottom. Videl cried out into his mouth, encircling his waist with her bare legs, holding his face between her palms as she kept grinding her pelvis against his.
He was going insane.
They broke the kiss to gasp for air, and Gohan buried his face in the crook of her neck, thrusting with more and more force between her thighs. Oh, how he wished he could just stop thinking and go all the way, feel her tight walls closing around his bursting sex and pound her senselessly. He pictured himself doing just that, and groped her ass under her bikini bottom to help create the illusion as he kept pushing his erection harder and harder against her soaking wet swimwear.
Videl arched her back and moaned his name, putting her arm on her forehead. With her spare hand, she searched for his and as she grabbed his wrist; Gohan realized that she was leading him between her legs… under her bikini bottom. Gohan gulped as he looked down at her hand, holding his firmly in place, using it to pleasure herself.
"Touch me, Gohan. Please," she begged him, her voice hoarse with lust.
His breathing deepened as he allowed Videl to let go of his wrist and did as he was told. He knew they shouldn't go that far, but his hormones were driving him crazy and his desire for her was bursting out. He could hardly hear the voice of reason's faint protest at what he was doing. One look at Videl's flushed face… her eyes tightly shut, her lips pinched together to stifle her moans of pleasure… He couldn't resist.
Gohan told himself that as long as they didn't go all the way, what they did when they fooled around didn't really matter. He didn't want to stop right now.
Gosh, she's so warm and wet, he thought, running his fingers over her lower lips. The texture was so strange. Squishy and soft, and slippery, and so hot. He licked his lips as he watched her reactions to his touch, his throat dry at the erotic vision before his eyes.
She jerked her head from side to side, then arched her neck and started to cry out, but she put her hand over her mouth to muffle the sound. God, she was so hot. He slipped a finger inside of her and felt her inner walls tighten around his digit. Videl kept muffling the sounds he elicited out of her with her hand. She opened her eyes, and their gazes met. Gohan slid another finger in and spun them around inside of her, stroking what he figured was her clitoris with his thumb; then he started thrusting, relishing every quiver, every muffled scream, every gasp… Videl curled her toes and threw her head to the side, stifling another moan with her hand, but Gohan took it to move it away and made her look at him as he fingered her, closing the distance between their faces.
"G… Gohan… Gohan…" she whimpered as he picked up the pace. She closed her eyes tightly, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Oh my God…"
He smirked when she threw her head back and her body started convulsing, all over… including around his fingers. This time he knew what was happening to her and he felt a swell of pride in his chest that he was able to make her finish, as she had put it the other day.
Gohan sat up, took out his fingers and brought his hand to his face, the smell of her arousal having all kinds of effects on him. He licked the juice off his fingers, his palm, down to his wrist, never breaking eye contact with Videl. Her hair was a mess on the sand, and her chest was heaving deeply as she tried to catch her breath, her hard, rosy nipples having slipped out of the triangles of her bikini top. His stomach tightened. He got harder.
She threw her arms around his neck and brought him down to seize his mouth, kissing him hungrily. "Can't we just…" she panted breathlessly between two kisses, "do it already?"
Gohan froze and pulled back from the kiss. He swallowed. He knew in his heart that they should wait, the moment didn't feel right, not yet… but looking at Videl right now, offering her body to him so eagerly, it was almost impossible to resist.
Almost.
He cupped her cheek and smiled in resignation. "Not yet."
She sighed in disappointment, before casting a glance at the tent on his swimming trunks. "Let me at least help you with that."
Gohan raised his eyebrows in confusion, but when Videl reached over and grabbed his erection through the swimwear, he certainly got what she meant. He gasped and choked in shock, feeling like he was just hit by lightning. Videl placed her spare hand on his chest and pushed him, rolling them over so he ended up lying on his back while she straddled his thighs. She put more pressure on his bulge and Gohan threw his head back. He grabbed a fistful of sand with both of his hands, feeling the last bits of control slip away from his grasp. He tried to hold on to his sanity – he wouldn't be able to resist for much longer if Videl didn't stop very soon.
Ahhh…. But it felt so good…!
Closing his eyes tightly, Gohan gritted his teeth, feeling something building up within him. Summoning his self-control, Gohan told himself that he wasn't some brainless, hormonal teenager, that he was stronger than that.
And so, with unbelievable effort, he sat up and seized Videl's wrist to take her hand off his erection and cease the wonderful thing she had been doing to him. He let out a deep, shaky breath, and responded to Videl's confused frown with an awkward smile.
"It's okay, you don't have to do that," he said. "Let's just go for a swim."
Her frown deepened, her eyes following him as he got up and offered her his hand. "You sure?" she asked, accepting his help and letting him pull her up.
Gohan nodded, leading her to the shore. "I think we went far enough this time. And the water should cool me down."
The waves tickled their toes. The temperature of the water was refreshing, and Gohan wasted no time getting deeper in, pulling Videl with him. He sighed in relief as he immersed his body in the cooling sea. He dipped his head in the water, getting his hair wet. Man, this felt good. And his arousal was finally calming down.
"Gohan, can I ask you something?" He turned to Videl and tugged at her hand to bring her closer to him.
"Yes?" he said, smiling in content.
She blushed slightly. "Have you ever…. I mean…" She got redder, and Gohan raised his eyebrows, his curiosity piqued. "You've had an… orgasm before, haven't you? Like, you've m-masturb-bated before, right?" Videl hated herself for stuttering at that word, feeling like some stupid schoolgirl.
Gohan scratched his cheek, feeling his face heat up at the question. "Well, actually… No, I haven't. When I wake up with an erection I just go to the bathroom. It passes on its own so I never saw the point."
"But don't you feel, I don't know, pent-up? Isn't it frustrating?"
Gohan shrugged. "It's only frustrating when I'm with you and we fool around, otherwise I feel normal."
"But why…" Videl flushed brighter. "Why didn't you let me give you one? Don't you want to know how it feels? I mean… I've had a few while we were… doing stuff, but you never get to, well, finish."
He smiled and pulled her to him, his hand on the small of her back; he cupped her cheek with the other one. "I don't think I would have been able to hold back if I'd let you continue… And the moment didn't feel right for our first time, not yet."
"If that ever happens," she muttered, looking away. "Sometimes I feel like the guy in the relationship, pressuring the girl to have sex with me."
Gohan snorted laughing, trying to stifle his mirth with his hand, looking to the side. Videl flushed, glaring at him through her embarrassment.
"Oh geez… that's exactly how we are," he snickered, his shoulders shaking.
"Stop laughing at me," she pouted, puckering her lips.
Gohan grinned from ear to ear, his eyes shining with mirth and tenderness. "I love you, Videl." She smiled. "I would love you even if you were a guy."
She hit his shoulder. "Stop it. Besides, you're definitely not gay."
"I'd turn gay for you. I think some guys can get 'turned', can't they?"
Her lips twitched, itching to break out into a smile, but Videl forced it down, not letting herself laugh with Gohan when he was mocking her.
"Shut up. It's not funny."
"Yes it is," Gohan insisted, nodding his head. She stuck her tongue out at him.
But Videl couldn't resist the laughter rising from her stomach as Gohan started tickling her sides. She tried to push him away, she told him to stop, but her devious boyfriend only grinned wider and kept tickling her.
"S-Stop it! I-I… I can't… breathe!" she managed to gasp between laughs.
At last, Gohan ceased the torture, but Videl could hardly catch her breath, for the boy stole it away with a mind-blowing kiss. Her knees turned to goo and she melted into his arms; she could feel his grin against her lips as he kept kissing her.
"I love you so much, Videl," he said softly, pressing his forehead against her. "And I'm sure it won't be long before we take that leap together. I just want to share that moment with you for the right reasons. I want to love you the right way."
She leaned her head on his shoulder and sighed in content as he held her tighter. "And I love you for that." She held him closer. "I just want you so much, and waiting is so frustrating."
He chuckled. "You're acting like the guy in the relationship again," he teased, and Videl blushed.
"Yeah, well, stop being such a girl then."
"Does that make us lesbians?"
She laughed against his shoulder, trying to muffle the sound. "Shut up, you idiot."
Gohan grinned and closed his eyes, a feeling of bliss swelling in his heart. "I love you too."
Videl smiled and sighed in content, relaxing in the embrace of the man she loved. "You big goof."
A gigantic wave suddenly crashed onto them and pushed them so hard and so far, they ended up back on the shore. Videl coughed as she got up, the water level reaching her knees, and Gohan couldn't help cracking up at the humorous situation.
"Hey, you stupid sea, who do you think you're interrupting? We were having a moment here!" she shouted at the ocean, fueling Gohan's amusement; he held his stomach and bent over as he laughed harder.
"Y-Yeah, you tell her Vivi!" Gohan gasped out somehow, unable to stop laughing. Videl grinned at him and soon joined him. The young lovebirds weren't able to calm down for a while, tears forming in the corner of their eyes, their stomachs getting sore.
Gohan grinned mischievously and reached out to grab Videl's wrist, before wrapping his arms around her and letting himself fall in the water on his back, bringing her with him. She landed on top of him with an oomph and a big splash, and Gohan threw his head back to let out another hearty laugh. He sat up, and she giggled, before straddling his lap and kissing him eagerly.
"Hey, Gohan?" she murmured against his lips.
"Hm?"
"Don't make me wait too long, okay?"
He blushed and grinned. "Okay." She smiled sheepishly at him, and Gohan cracked up again. "But stop pressuring me so much!"
Videl laughed with him.
ooOoo
Soaking wet after spending most of the morning in the sea, Sharpner sat down on a blanket next to his cousin, who was lying down with a pair of sunglasses on her nose, dry as a fresh towel.
"You're not gonna get in the water?" he asked.
"And get my hair wet? No thanks."
He shrugged. "You're missing out. It's not like washing it is that hard."
Nevy glanced at her cousin through the shade of her sunglasses and gave him the hint of a smile. "Maybe later."
A moment passed in silence between the two. Sharpner gazed at the sea, where most of his friends enjoyed themselves, jumping waves, surfing, playing games. Gohan and Videl had been nowhere to be seen since the boy had taken his girlfriend away in a hilarious fit of jealousy, and the blonde supposed they were having fun on their own somewhere on the beach – which suited Sharpner just fine. He did not need to be there while they got all lovey-dovey and sugary and just disgustingly sweet. Though he appreciated that his friends hadn't been making out in public – well, excluding what happened last night during the game of truth or dare, but such occasions permitted exceptions.
He glanced at Nevy, still sunbathing on the blanket, looking like she had not a care in the world. Something seemed a bit… extreme, about the way she insisted that Gohan kissed another girl for his dare. It seemed as though… Sharpner frowned.
"Hey Nevy?"
"Hm?"
"What's your problem with Gohan?"
