I just have to say this before I go on with my story...
Is there any one out there that is crazy enough to study on a holiday from 12:30 pm to 8:00 pm with only one or two five to ten minute breaks during that time period? I know I'm that crazy fool. I'm actually going to be writing for the next hour... hour in a half for this fanfics before I watch DBZ-uncut episodes. And I still have to study for a Spanish Vocab Test, an English Test over a book I read along with some notes on the Romantic Era in American Literature, AND study for a World History test. And you think I'm cool and composed with having to do all this crap in one day? Yeah... I did study on Saturday and Sunday. Two hours on Saturday and three on Sunday! So no, I'm not exactly a procrastinator. I guess... I'm becoming as crazy as Son Gohan is with his studies... I just don't make A's all the time... even though I do all my work and study for a good few hours...
Is it just me... or am I trying to be an over achiever?

Chapter 2
§±§±§±§
Gohan glared at his mother and Bulma. They were now currently at Capsule Corporations currently getting ready for this 'engagement party'. Videl was also sitting beside her boyfriend looking very angry as this thrown out information. I mean... yeah, she did hope to one day marry this guy. He was that one person in a billion who made her the happiest person alive even if he just smiled at her. That said much! But here come his mother and long time family friend making a decision that the two would become MARRIED?
"Are you two insane?" shouted Gohan as he raised his arms in the air from frustration. Out of all the messes he had gotten into in his life, this had to be far by the worst. Yeah, he did hope to one day ask Videl for her hand in marriage but... this wasn't just proper! "What makes you think that I had wanted to even pop the question 'would you marry me and be my bride' or better yet, become engaged?"
Bulma and Chichi noticed Videl's eyes as she sat on a near by couch. It looked as if a small wave of hurt crossed her features at those words stated.
Gohan had also felt the emotion, which hit her that instance; he didn't realize the words he stated till he actually stated them. He immediately regretted saying it.
Chichi huffed as she stood up from her chair and crossed her arms stubbornly. "The reason why we felt we should announce such an event is because we can just see it in your eyes."
"And," added on Bulma with a smile on her lips as she stood up beside her friend, "We felt that it would be the best for you two. You both have been bonding for months now. I just know that this bond must be driving you two crazy in wanting to complete it!"
Instantly, the words hit both Gohan and Videl like a ton of bricks... well... for Gohan- like… a million tons of bricks (being a saiyan and all). They faces became scarlet as they glared evilly to the two women. But the two wives of saiyans just sighed as they went into dream mode.
"Oh, I can just see the little grandchildren running around!" exclaimed Chichi, her eyes becoming all starry as she clasped her hands together at her chest.
Bulma also smiled as she imagined all the little Gohan's and Videl's running around the Capsule Corp building shooting ki blasts at Trunks and Goten all the while destroying the house.
Both women sighed deeply smiles still placed on their face. "If only..."
Both Gohan and Videl's face became the color of plums. One could swear that if their faces turned any darker their blood vessels would burst from the skin.
That would be a sight to see!
While the women were still in dream mode Gohan glanced over to Videl. She noticed his orbs from the corner of her eyes, and she looked at him. She immediately glared. 'So... you don't want to marry me? Is all this some act to cover up a fact that you could be gay?'
Gohan mentally choked as his eye began to twitch. 'Videl... do me a favor."
Videl continued to stare at her boyfriend, her blue eyes alone urging him to continue.
'Make sure to never let that though pattern enter your mind again,' he warned as he crossed his arms slouching in the couch.
Videl just rolled her eyes hiding a smile from gracing her lips. Gohan could be such a child at such times. She looked over his posture once again; this saiyan had slouched his back on the couch he was sitting on while his muscular arms crossed his broad chest. A pout was placed on his lips as he sulked silently. She knew every thought that entered his mind, and she couldn't help but mentally laugh at every one of his silent rants.
He glanced back over to her, his glare still present. 'What's so funny?'
She let a smirk grace her lips as she leaned closer to him, 'You.'
He noticed her finger poke the center of his chest before looking up to her eyes. 'And why am I so humorous?'
She just shrugged, 'You just are.'
Gohan cocked an eyebrow while lightly smiling, 'Right...'
"Oh! Bulma! Look!"
The two were snapped out of their thoughts when they noticed the beaming women's faces.
"They're mentally talking to each other!" exclaimed Chichi extremely excited as she clapped her hands together. "Oh! I'm so pleased! I'll be getting grandkids before you know it!" Chichi dashed out of the room.
"Hold on Chichi! I still need to get the list of guests!" shouted Bulma running after the mother of the hybrid saiyan.
The two teens just stared out the door till Videl sighed, "Those women are going to be the end of us."
Gohan nodded his head in agreement as he straightened his posture. "I just hope nothing more unexpected comes up."
"Yep," replied Videl.
The two just sat there.
Just sitting there... quietly.
They didn't even blink.
They just sat there...
Sitting...
Sitting...
Sitting...
Gohan paused as he looked over to the writer of the story before turning his attention to Videl. "Do you think the author's becoming a bit repetitive?"
Videl looked to the writing from three lines before current times; she nodded her head. "Yep."
But alas! The two saiyans were saved from boredom when two certain individuals arrived on the scene of the crime... er... story I mean.
Heh...
Vegeta looked to the comments made as he entered the room. "What's the author smoking?" he questioned while frowning.
Out of nowhere, a lightning bolt came to strike Vegeta. However, because of Vegeta's supersaiyan speed, he was able to dodge a horrible fate of becoming... a crispy saiyan. Hmmm... Saiyan fries.
Goku also noticed the strange comments... but ignored them as his happy-go-lucky smile came upon his features once again. "Hey guys! I'm so glad you hear that you two are finally tying the knot!"
"Dad," started Gohan as he sighed, "I haven't even asked Videl the question, and she hasn't exactly given an answer."
Goku blinked before tilting his head to the side, "Then how can you two be engaged?"
"Chichi and Bulma want us to be married as soon as possible," replied Videl a bit reluctantly.
"Is it the grandchildren thing?" questioned Goku as he sat on a couch.
The teens nodded their head.
Goku just mouthed 'Oh' as sympathy was displayed towards the two in the room.
Vegeta, on the other hand, was the opposite of what Goku was to the hybrid saiyan male and full-blooded human female. "I don't understand this whole marriage thing. Why don't you two just complete the bond? It'll make things easier on the two of you," commented the prince as he smirked to the two.
Both teens looked up to the full-blooded saiyan prince in horror. Goku also turned to the prince while gasping as he held a hand to his chest. "VEGETA!" exclaimed the father of Gohan, "How DARE you suggest such a thing! I am so ashamed!"
Vegeta smacked Goku up side the head. "You're such a moron Kakarot. Look at those two!" exclaimed the saiyan as he grabbed his rival's head roughly turning it to face both Gohan and Videl. "You can just see the look in their eyes; they LONG for each other! They want to be forever in each other's arms... they want to-"
"VEGETA!" shouted Gohan as his face turning that lovely shade of plum as it had once before from embarrassment. "This is a PG 13 story! How dare you suggest such a thing?"
The prince blinked as he frowned, "Suggesting that you two wanted to eat a bag of chocolate is wrong?" Vegeta turned to Goku muttering, "I think these kids have lost it."
Goku nodded in agreement. "It must be the women's goings."
There was a small pause in the room, which foreshadowed the next thing to happen... an almost shrilly voice.
"Goodness gracious Videl!" exclaimed a voice from the back of the room.
Both Gohan and Videl turned around somewhat sighing in relief that it wasn't the dreaded women from hell. Erasa ran up to the two and hugged both quickly; Sharpener walked in behind with a look of astonishment written on his expression. The blonde female squealed in excitement. "Why didn't you two tell me that you were already engaged? This is the biggest news I have heard since you and Gohan started dating!"
A sweatdrop fell from the side of Videl's forehead. "Um... well..." She glanced over to her boyfriend... er... soon to be fiancé. And thus, the mental conversation began. 'Gohan, what should we tell them? They are our friends, and I think they should know the truth.'
'That we aren't actually engaged?' questioned back Gohan as he looked to the expectant eyes of his friends. He looked back to his girlfriend. 'I don't know what we should say. I mean... you don't exactly have a ring to prove our engagement.'
He noticed the glow in Videl's eyes die down to a small shimmer of light, 'I see... then I guess...'
Gohan grabbed her hands looking into her blue orbs, a new hope now seen in them as he smiled to her, 'Well... for the time being, we COULD say that we are an engaged couple. I mean, it wouldn't hurt to go along with what my mother and Bulma stated before, right?'
The shimmer in Videl's eyes came back into a full out glow as she smiled to him. 'I guess it won't.' She nodded, 'Okay, the engagement it is.'
Turning back to their friends, the expectant and anxious stares were noticed. Videl laughed at both Erasa and Sharpener. They were so funny at times. Still with their hands intertwined with each other's, they smiled to their friends.
"Of course we are engaged," commented Videl as she scooted closer to her 'fiancé', "Didn't we already tell your two?"
The dumb stares of the two blondes were the only thing noticed as the word 'Duhhhhh' seemed came out of their mouth. They were utterly speechless! In the bond, both Gohan and Videl were laughing. This whole engagement might be good to play by after all! Maybe Chichi and Bulma did something right for the lives of these two lovebirds!
Erasa then squealed loudly as she hugged her friends tightly. "OH! I'm so excited for you two! This is like a dream come true! I always thought Videl would become that old lady who lived unmarried with hundreds of cats running around while rocking in her rocker the rest of her life!"
Sweat drops formed on the back of the heads of both Gohan and Videl.
Erasa's smile seemed to widen even more. "Oh! I just can't wait till the media and the press hear about this! Daughter of current World Champion and Son of Former World Champion coming together in wedding matrimony! It'll be the perfect story for months!" The blonde female gasped as she placed her hands over her pockets. "Oh! Where's my cell phone? I need to tell the press! Oh Bulma! Chichi? I need to use a phone!" She called while running out of the room. Sharpener just followed very well knowing that Erasa could get lost in these maze like halls.
The look of panic and terror soon came across the faces of the two teens, and soon to be married couple. Now because of this one fib... it seemed as if their life would most defiantly be turned upside down...
The sound of laughing was noticed from the other side of the room; it was clearly the voices of both Goku and Vegeta.
The teens looked at the older saiyans in horror, "Oh, this is perfect," taunted Vegeta as a look of smugness came across the face of the prince. "Just wait till Bulma and your mother get the news."
And sure enough... it had to have been about two seconds later a loud shrill of delight was echoing down the halls followed by the phrase, "I'M GETTING GRANDCHILDREN!"
Oh boy... Dende have mercy on the souls of these two... Have mercy on them...

I am now going to hit the books... or notes... once again for about another hour... and maybe an hour in the morning hours. Not sure. But this is my thanks for you, the reader for having some interest in the sequel to my fanfics Rain, Rain, Go Away!
One more note before I let you guys go, I am not planning to update this fic or any of my newer fanfics. I have looked back to some of my older unfinished fics, and I've realized that I have some uncompleted fics I started in 2003! So... I really need to work on those two for the time being. I hope you guys can check them both out. One of them is called 'What Makes Us Stronger' my first fanfics out on in DBZ (a Bulma and Vegeta fanfics) and the second is 'Come On, Be Serious!' a Goku fic when he gets smarter... after some accident with a frying pan... he's now in the past changing history. Craziness is in that story as in this one... it's just taken in the time of the three years before the androids.
Thanks again for reading and please send me a small note in review of how you liked this chapter!
