Revised Impressions


Kagome was surprised to see that Gohan appeared the next morning at her doorstep. She thought after her earlier cold attitude towards him and ditching him, she had driven him away.

"Good morning," she called out, unsure of what else to say.

"Y-yeah," he mumbled, avoiding eye contact. Kagome felt even worse for her actions. The two started to walk together, engulfed in an awkward silence.

"I-I'm not a pervert," Gohan suddenly stuttered out stopping in the middle of the sidewalk, catching Kagome off guard.

He looked so distressed that Kagome felt even guiltier about trying to avoid him. He was genuinely a nice guy. And maybe she was just being paranoid. Being around him did not necessarily mean he would bring trouble.

"I know you're not Gohan," she replied. "And I'm sorry if I seemed a bit…distant yesterday."

He smiled at her, the tension melting away and Kagome felt herself smiling back at him. "It's alright. It's hard being the new student."

"Let me make it up to you then," Kagome pleaded.

Gohan bashfully scratched his face. "You don't have to do that."

"Of course I do. I'll tell you what, I'll make you lunch tomorrow."

"You really don't have to do that," he insisted. He was touched by her offer, but he was still half-saiyan and his food was important to him. Which was the reason he took his meals by himself, so no one could see just exactly how much he ate.

Kagome was determined though and continued, "Please, let me do this for you."

Gohan felt his will dissolve when he looked into her eyes. "W-well if you insist."

"Great. Now let's hurry up or we're gonna be late," Kagome spoke as she grabbed Gohan's hand. He blushed at the contact, but let her drag him along.
