Chapter Sixteen

You're the Only One That I Want

Gohan glanced at the pretty blonde walking beside him. After the pastry shop, Erasa had suggested that they take a walk together in the park.

This definitely felt like a date. Gohan dug his hands in his pockets and lowered his head, letting out a sigh. While he enjoyed Erasa's company, he didn't want this to be a date. Videl was the only one he was supposed to go on dates with. Videl was his girlfriend.

He had to make it clear to Erasa that he only saw her as a friend. It was going to be awful, she was going to be heartbroken, but it had to be done. He couldn't let something like this happen again. He didn't want to give her false hopes. Erasa deserved better. It wasn't fair to her. He couldn't let her believe she might have a chance with him.

He massaged the back of his neck and glanced over to her again. Erasa turned to him to meet his gaze and beamed at him.

His heart clenched painfully, but he forced a smile in return nonetheless. "So, um…" he started awkwardly, still rubbing his neck. "Is… Is this a date?"

Erasa blushed and looked away, tucking her short strands of hair behind her ear. "O-Of course not…" She bit her lip and met his gaze again, her cheeks flushed and her eyes sparkling. "I mean… What would you think if it were a date?"

His throat tightened. She was looking at him with so much hope.

Gohan stopped walking and turned to her fully, a frown creasing his brow.

"I'm still in love with Videl," he stated firmly.

"I know," Erasa said, lowering her head. She shuffled her feet, her hands linked behind her back. "I don't expect you to get over her in a blink. But I thought it might help you get your mind off her." She raised her head again and smiled at him. "Of course it's not a date, Gohan. But I'm your friend and I was worried about you, seeing as Videl rejected you."

Well, now he felt like a jerk. Still, he knew Erasa wasn't being completely truthful. He knew how she felt about him, and while she affirmed that this wasn't a date, Gohan had a feeling that she had hoped it could be.

"Thanks, Erasa," he said with a smile. They resumed walking together. "I'm fine, though. I mean, yeah, it hurt like hell when Videl rejected me…"

"But at least you managed to stay friends despite that," Erasa added, looking over at him happily.

Gohan turned away and lowered his head. He really was a jerk. He shouldn't have suggested to Videl that they keep their relationship secret. This was on him. Now Erasa was going to hurt that much worse when she found out that they had been lying to her. It was his fault that Videl had felt the need to lie to her best friend instead of coming clean to her. It was his fault that Erasa was still hoping he might someday share her feelings. They should've told her the truth from the beginning.

"Yeah…"

But now the lies kept on piling up. How were they supposed to get out of this mess?

"I was nervous about mentioning Videl to you earlier," Erasa admitted. "I thought it would hurt you to think about her."

"I'm always thinking about her," he murmured, unable to help himself. After all the lies, it felt good to say something truthful.

Erasa didn't reply, and they walked side by side in silence. Gohan felt his chest tighten in guilt. He had hurt her, hadn't he? He couldn't just tell her how he felt about her best friend so blatantly, he had to be more tactful. It wasn't helping his situation, either, and it was only hurting Erasa more. She already knew how he felt, yet he found nothing better to do than rubbing it in.

"Sorry. I killed the mood," he mumbled, digging his hands in his pockets once more.

"You're just being honest with how you feel. I wish I could be more like that…"

He understood what she meant by that, and Gohan felt a lump rise in his throat. It would be easier to reject her properly if she just confessed her feelings to him. As much as he hated the idea of hurting her in that way, Gohan knew it had to be done.

But how was he supposed to do it if Erasa still wouldn't admit to him how she felt?

She motioned to a bench and suggested they take a break. Gohan agreed, and they sat together on the bench.

Ah, what was he doing here? He should just put an end to this – whatever this was. He had meant to reject Erasa today, but it wasn't working. If Erasa wasn't willing to be honest with him about how she felt, then there was nothing that could be done. If he couldn't tell her clearly that he would never share her feelings, then there was no point in continuing with this charade.

"It's been nice, hanging out together, just the two of us," Erasa said softly.

"Yeah…"

Which was true. He did enjoy Erasa's company. Gohan wished he didn't know how she felt about him. It would've made things so much easier and less complicated. He could've just been his usual oblivious self and not have to worry about breaking her heart.

"It's getting late, though," he said, rubbing the back of his neck as he glanced at her.

Erasa smiled at him. Her eyes were sparkling in that peculiar way as she gazed at him, and Gohan felt his throat tighten.

How could he have missed it? It was right there under his nose the whole time. The way she looked at him… How could he not see that Erasa had always been hoping for more?

"Yeah, we should probably head back."

They got up and walked to the park's exit. Gohan tried to think of the bright side. He did have fun hanging out with Erasa, and he wasn't forced to break her heart just yet. Things may have not progressed, but at least they didn't get any worse.

"I finished a book the other day," Erasa said, starting the conversation as they got on their way back. Gohan couldn't help the smile tugging at his lips as he turned to her at her prideful announcement. "It was a romance, but it ends in a tragedy. I've seen the movie about it a while ago, so I got curious when I came across the book."

"What was it?" he asked eagerly, getting curious.

"It's called One Day. We only read about the same date year after year. We also get snippets of their first day together all throughout the story. I felt it was really well-thought."

Gohan raised his eyebrows. His interest was piqued. "What's the author's name?"

Erasa tapped her chin in thought. "Hmm… Daniel… no, David something…" She shook her head and moved her backpack around to fish her phone out. "Let me just look it up online. I didn't pay a lot of attention to the name on the cover."

Gohan chuckled. "I guess you were too riveted by the book's content?"

She beamed at him. "I was! You know, I've never been a big reader, but I really loved that book. It made me want to find something new to read."

He grinned. "Yeah, books tend to have that effect. How do you think I became a bookworm?"

She laughed slightly as she tapped on her phone's screen. "It's David Nicholls!" Erasa exclaimed proudly. "One Day by David Nicholls. You want to borrow my copy?"

"I'd love that, thanks."

Indeed, Gohan enjoyed Erasa's company a lot. She was fun to hang out with, and there was something adorable and endearing about her. Like a little sister that he felt the need to protect.

If only he could have stayed oblivious.

ooOoo

"Well, this is me," Erasa said as they stopped by the front entrance to her building. She was beaming at him. "Thanks for walking me back."

Gohan smiled, and the girl felt her heart swoon. Gosh, he was just so damn handsome.

"My pleasure."

Unable to resist, she hugged him goodbye. Erasa closed her eyes and breathed in deeply, tightening her arms around his back as she snuggled up to him. Hesitantly, awkwardly, Gohan patted her back. She cracked a smile. His shyness was so cute.

"I had fun," she murmured. He smelled so nice… How she wished they could just stay like this…

"Um… Yeah. Err… Me too."

Gohan put his hands on her shoulders and gently pulled back from the hug. Erasa felt a pang when his warmth left her, but she couldn't help the smile forming on her lips at the adorable blush on his face as he scratched his hair uneasily.

He was just too cute. She loved him so much.

Before she could stop herself, her hand touched his cheek, as though it had a mind of its own. Gohan looked at her with a slight frown, maybe confused by her brash action.

She just couldn't resist anymore. Her heart was going to explode. Her eyes lowered to his lips and her throat tightened in anticipation.

"Erasa, what are you…?"

x

Gohan's eyes widened as he was cut off by Erasa's lips on his. He was so shocked that he couldn't even react. He was paralyzed by the foreign touch.

She pulled back before he could command his body to push her away. Why hadn't he pushed her away? Now Erasa could be thinking that he was okay with what just happened – or, worse, that he actually liked her kiss.

She had her head lowered; he couldn't even tell what she was thinking. So Gohan examined her ki. He knew it was an invasion of her intimacy, but he had to know what was going through her head right now. He had to assess the damages.

He felt conflict and confusion in her aura, and Gohan had no clue as to how to interpret that. He figured it could've been worse. Erasa could've been all giddy and excited instead, which would have definitely been the worst-case scenario.

"Well, um… See you tomorrow."

With that, Erasa turned around and rushed inside her building. Maybe she was embarrassed by her bold move. Maybe she realized it was a mistake, what with him being too shocked to even react. She knew how he felt about Videl, after all. Even if they hadn't gotten together, Gohan wouldn't have been ready to be with someone else after she rejected him.

He turned around and briskly walked away, finding himself a deserted alley so he could fly home.

But instead of taking off to the sky, Gohan leaned back against the wall. His face contorted in a grimace and he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. His eyes prickled. Why did it come to that? Videl was the only one who was allowed to kiss him. Videl's lips were the only ones that he wanted touching his.

He covered his eyes with his large hand. Why hadn't he pushed Erasa away immediately? Why didn't he see what she was about to do? Why couldn't he turn away in time and avoid her kiss?

He sniffed and wiped his eyes, before blowing out a long breath. Looking up to the red sky, he saw the image of the girl he loved and felt his heart tighten with guilt.

Without thinking, Gohan took off and shot through the sky at breakneck speed. In no time at all, he arrived at his destination and floated around the Satan House to get to Videl's balcony.

He landed with a soft clack; Videl's curtains were drawn as usual. Putting down his satchel, he went to the glass door and knocked. A sad smile curled his lips when he heard her rushed steps coming closer. She opened her glass door and beamed when she saw him.

But before she could even open her mouth to say anything, Gohan grabbed her face and seized her lips possessively. Videl readily kissed him back, wrapping her arms around his back. He moaned and deepened the kiss, letting the delicious sensations wash away the feeling of another girl's lips on his.

He hoisted her up and walked in her room blindly, unwilling to break the kiss. Videl wrapped her legs around his waist, her hands moving to cup his face as they kept their lips locked.

Gohan gently laid Videl on the bed and finally broke the kiss, letting his forehead drop against hers.

"I love you," he murmured hoarsely, his breathing short.

"I love you too," she replied in a heartbeat.

He buried his face in the crook of her neck and let himself be immersed in her delectable peachy scent, by the feeling of her soft body all pressed up to his.

"She kissed me. Erasa."

He felt her go rigid against him and his heart clenched painfully.

"I was so shocked… I didn't even react…" he went on, trying to explain, to justify himself. "It felt like nothing… Like drinking cold milk." He tightened his arms around her. "I feel like an idiot. I should've seen it coming. I should've been able to avoid it, like you with Reece. You're the only one I want to kiss, Videl… You're the only one who should be kissing me."

He felt her hand run through his hair in a tender caress. She pressed her lips on his neck, just behind his ear. "I'm sorry, Gohan," she murmured. "It's my fault… If I hadn't lied to Erasa, if I had just come clean to her instead…"

"I'm the one who told you we should keep it a secret," he mumbled into her hair.

"And I agreed to it… We just keep digging ourselves in a hole, and it keeps getting deeper and deeper…"

"I wish I never agreed to hang out with her."

Videl sighed, her breath tickling his skin. "Let's just… Let's just forget about it tonight."

Gohan raised himself slightly to look down at her. "Yeah. That sounds like a good plan…"

She cracked a smile, and Gohan felt his heart swell with love. He cupped her cheek. She was just so beautiful. He closed the distance between them, his nose brushing hers, and closed his eyes.

His heart hammered in anticipation. Videl's breathing was heavy and short. She ran a hand down his back, slowly, tenderly, and Gohan felt a shiver course through his body. He wished his clothes weren't in the way, that he could feel her hands on his skin.

He burned for her. He ached to make her his.

"I love you…" he breathed, before closing the final millimeters between them, savoring her delicious lips once more.

Videl encircled his midsection with her legs and pulled him closer, all against her, and Gohan groaned into her mouth when he felt his hardening crotch pressed hard between her thighs.

"Videl I… I want you," he rasped out, his lips just over hers. "I want to make love to you."

Her breath hitched. Gohan pulled back slightly to look deep into her eyes, his face serious. Her lips were parted, her face was flushed, her chest was heaving rapidly.

He noticed what she was wearing for the first time. A gray strapped top and pajama shorts. The fabric was so thin that he could tell she wasn't wearing a bra.

His throat tightened. His fingers twitched. He wanted to touch her. He was dying to slip his hand under her flimsy tank top and cup her breast.

He rolled away from her and sat on the bed. "Forget I said anything," he forced himself to say. "There's no need to rush things between us."

Without saying a word, Videl moved closer to him. She cupped his face and made him look at her. She gave him a sheepish, adorable smile, and then she nodded her head.

He swallowed. His heart was thumping hard against his chest. "Are you sure?" he murmured hoarsely.

She simply closed the distance between them and kissed his trembling lips.

"I love you, Gohan," she whispered, looking deep into his eyes.

She kissed him again, and Gohan let his mind shut off as he held the girl he loved more than anything in his arms.

He pushed her gently to lie on the bed and took off his shirt, before getting on top of her, pressing his body down to hers, feelings her curves mesh into him in the most perfect way. He nuzzled her neck and breathed in deeply. Her scent was so intoxicating.

He started kissing her skin, savoring the way she tasted, reveling in the way she reacted to his touch. His hand moved to her stomach, and his fingers barely grazed her as he slipped under her top. Videl gave a shiver. She let out a small gasp when he cupped her breast.

Gohan raised himself to look at her. Her eyes were shut tightly; she was biting her lip.

He squeezed lightly. She felt so soft, so perfect… He ran his thumb over her nipple. Videl sucked in a shaky breath and let out a moan. He swallowed. Goodness, he wanted her too much. She was just too desirable.

He let go of her breast so he could lift her top over her head. Their clothes needed to go, right now. He was getting impatient. He needed her too much. He wanted her too much. He couldn't wait any longer.

The sight of her naked chest made his pants even tighter. He felt flushed all over and he couldn't control his erratic breathing. Videl met his lustful eyes as he got on his knees and hurriedly undid his belt and lowered his pants, kicking them off along with his dress shoes in a rush.

He saw her look down at the very obvious tent on his boxers. She swallowed, before peering up at him once more, giving him a nervous smile.

He felt his throat tighten. "We don't have to do this right now," he whispered breathlessly, ignoring the loud protest of his more than eager erection. "I can wait if you're not ready."

"I…" Videl bit her lip and sat up to face him. She placed her hand on his bare chest, ran it down his twitching abs, and Gohan felt himself grow weak at her touch. "I'm just a little nervous… but I want this too, Gohan…" Her hand reached the hem of his boxers. "You're not pushing me to do anything I don't want to…"

She tugged at his last piece of clothing, letting his penis break free. Oddly enough, he didn't feel embarrassed at all to reveal his naked body to Videl. It felt intimate and special, something only she was allowed to see.

He helped her take off his underwear, and removed his socks as well, feeling too hot and flushed to keep them on. Then he pushed her gently on her back and started slipping her pajama shorts down her creamy legs. He couldn't help himself and kissed the inside of her thigh. The smell of her arousal tickled his nostrils, intoxicating him, making his thirsty.

Moving between her beautiful legs, Gohan tugged at her cotton panties, his face dangerously close to her crotch. He closed his eyes and breathed in deeply. His throat felt so dry. He wanted her so much.

He dipped between her thighs before he could realize what he was doing. Videl arched her back and gasped. He grasped her butt to pull her closer, devouring her mercilessly. She tasted so strange, and yet he couldn't get enough of her. She was absolutely delicious. And the way she responded to his ministrations… The way she moaned his name and rocked her body, the way her thighs tightened around his head, the way she held his head down, her fingers gripping his hair… She was driving him positively insane.

"Oh god… G-Gohan… Ah! Yes! Gohan! Gohan! Oh my god, yes! Yes! Aaahhhh!"

Her inner walls convulsed around his tongue, and then his mouth was flooded with her juice. Gohan drank her like he had been dying of thirst in the hottest desert. She just tasted so good.

x

He raised himself, sitting on his knees; their eyes locked as he wiped his chin before licking his fingers, and Videl felt herself flush even more. Gohan was so… sexy. The way he was looking at her alone was having all kinds of effects on her.

He towered over her, his elbow under her armpit, and grabbed his erection with his other hand, positioning himself on top of her. Videl couldn't help peering down at his penis. Would he even fit? Was it going to hurt a lot? She could tell Gohan was definitely bigger than average, even though he was the first she was seeing – and the only one she would ever see, too.

"We… We can still stop if you're not ready," he whispered, his chest heaving deeply.

Videl smiled as she looked up at him. She cupped his face and brought him down for a tender kiss. She was so lucky to have found him, to be with him, to share this moment with him. He was so sweet, so considerate, so wonderful… She could feel his gentle soul washing over her, appeasing her nervousness.

"Stop… worrying so much," she murmured against his lips between two kisses. "I want this, Gohan. With you. Right now. I want you…"

He deepened the kiss, his tongue doing all kinds of delicious things in her mouth. Videl sighed in delight. She ran her hand down his muscular back, before cupping his tight ass. His body was the most divine work of art. How she loved touching him…

Gohan moved his hands to her chest, fondling her breasts. He pinched her nipples, and Videl groaned into his mouth. One of her hands slipped to his front, her fingers hesitantly making contact with his twitching erection.

Gohan tore his lips away from hers and let out a shaky breath. Videl smiled at the way her touch affected him; she grabbed him firmly this time, and Gohan gasped, his hips jerking forwards. He responded by squeezing her breasts, making her breath hitch.

Videl planted a kiss on his neck, before whispering in his ear, "Make me yours, Gohan…"

He watched her intently, his erratic pants brushing her lips. He slid his hands down her waist and stopped on her hips. Not once did he break eye contact. Videl felt herself burn with anticipation. Still holding his pulsing erection in her hand, she led him to her entrance.

He closed his eyes and gave a shudder when his tip touched her wet folds. Videl took her other hand and touched his cheek, bringing him in for another kiss. Gohan pushed forward, slowly entering her, and groaned into her mouth. She winced and wrapped her arms around his neck, focusing on the sensations of his kiss to try and forget about the pain of losing her virginity.

But Gohan pulled out completely and broke the kiss. Videl gave him a questioning look.

"I can't stand that I'm hurting you."

She felt a smile form on her lips and cupped his cheek. "It's supposed to hurt the first time."

He shook his head. "I don't want you to be in pain at all. I want you to feel good." He moved his hand down her stomach and between her thighs. "Maybe I… Maybe I can help you adjust without it having to hurt you."

He pushed two fingers inside of her; Videl closed her eyes and let out a moan. She felt him turn around her inner walls, as though to get them wider, to make more room for his length. She winced slightly then, and Gohan immediately apologized.

"I went a little hard, sorry…"

He kept going, carefully twisting his fingers around inside of her. Videl bit her lip, feeling the pleasure building up. He added another digit, and Videl threw her head back and gave a guttural moan.

"Ah! It feels so good!"

Then she felt his mouth around her left nipple, while his other hand played with her right breast. Her eyes widened at the sensations while Gohan made a point to drive her crazy with pleasure.

She felt defenseless. Completely at his mercy. She shuddered as Gohan flicked his tongue on her nipple, then he was sucking it and making it even harder. He squeezed her right breast at the same time, while his other hand was still busy between her legs.

"I… I think I'm ready now…" she managed to gasp out.

Gohan raised himself to look down at her. He took his fingers out of her and grabbed his erect member instead. His other hand was still on her breast. Videl cupped his face, marveling at his handsome features.

"I'm ready," she said again, urging him to thrust forward and possess her. "Take me, Gohan. Make me yours."

He smiled, and her heart ached in the most delightful way. He leaned in and kissed her tenderly.

"I love you so much…" he breathed against her lips.

"I love you too…"

She tore away from his mouth and threw her head back when she felt his pulsing cock thrust inside of her.

"Oh my god…"

She wrapped her arms around his neck and held onto him tightly; Gohan slowly rocked his hips back and forth, creating the most addicting friction. She pushed her pelvis upward to meet his thrusts, urging to go harder. She wanted him to let loose, to stop worrying about her and just let go of all restraint. She wanted him whole, without reservation.

He picked up the pace, but Videl could feel that he was still holding back.

She pushed him on his back to get on top, her hands against his chest for leverage. If Gohan wasn't ready to shut his brain off completely, then she would show him that she was more than capable of taking it.

x

She rode him deep and hard, rolling her hips every now and again – no doubt with the intention to make him go crazy. She was breathing hard, beads of sweat glistening on her beautiful skin. Her hair, her breasts were swaying up and down in rhythm with her erratic pace.

Gohan could not tear his gaze away from her. She was incredible. She was a goddess.

She felt so damn good.

His hands were on her hips, his finger digging into her plush skin as he rocked his pelvis back and forth to keep up with her. Videl arched her back and gasped out his name.

Something stirred inside of him. Gohan suddenly rolled them around and got on his knees, thrusting harder inside of her, thirsty for more of this intoxicating friction.

"Oh, yes! Yes! Yes! More! Don't stop, Gohan! More! More! Ahh!"

He lost himself completely. The pleasure was unbelievable. And yet it never felt like enough. He was addicted to her, he couldn't get enough of her, of the feel of her, of the way she writhed beneath him, the way she cried out his name, the way she tightened around his bursting sex.

He was hammering into her at this point, unable to control himself, unable to control anything anymore. He seized her breasts and pushed them together. She was so gorgeous, so perfect. He played with her beautiful mounds, eliciting more gasps and moans of pleasure out of his goddess of a girlfriend.

And then she cried out and her body started convulsing. Gohan hissed at the sensation of her twitching and trembling around him, but he wasn't ready to let this moment end already, so he held back. He stayed still for a few moments as Videl caught her breath, her body still quivering against his.

Then he kissed her deeply, savoring the feel of her breath, of her lips, of her tongue. He moved from her mouth to her chin, her throat, her neckline, her shoulder…

"Gohan…" she breathed out shakily.

His sex was still pulsing inside of her, hard as steel and ready to burst. He indulged his most primal urge and started moving again, making Videl gasp and pant loudly at each of his thrusts. He nuzzled her hair while he picked up the pace, losing himself into her once more. Videl wasn't meeting his thrusts this time; she held onto him and let out all kinds of moans and cries of ecstasy as he pounded her relentlessly.

The sensation was so intense, so incredible. Gohan moaned against Videl's neck, thrusting even harder; something was building up. He couldn't hold back anymore.

"Oh, Videl…!"

His hips jerked and shook violently. Gohan let out a guttural groan, and everything went white. Something cracked inside of him, and the explosion took him entirely.

The pleasure was suffocating.

His body was still trembling as he collapsed on Videl. He held her tightly, unwilling to break their connection.

"I love you…" he panted in her ear.

"I love you too…"

A blissful smile curved his lips. The girl he loved more than anything loved him back… What else could he ask for?
