Chapter 9

Gohan let his head slowly drift down until his lips met Videl's. They felt like silk he thought as they gently touched once then twice. Not sure of what to do but not wanting the wonderful sensations that this was causing in him to end he gently placed his hands on her shoulders and brought her body against his so that she was sitting on his lap.

He heard Videl sigh in contentment, as he once again tasted of her sweet lips. She tilted her head back and arched her back so that their mouths could meet more easily. "Gohan." She whispered gently as she pulled back just a bit, just enough to suck in some air. Needing more of her he once again captured her lips trying to show his need for her and his confusion for that need in that touch. Videl groaned as this time he drew away breathless.

"How was that?" He asked breathless.

Videl who was still sitting in his lap looked up at him in awe. "Incredible." She laid her head against his chest reeling in the feel of his arms around her.

"Maybe this bonding thing isn't so bad after all."

Gohan chuckled.

"You still owe me some answers though." Videl said She felt him tense under her.

"Didn't I already answer all your questions Videl?"

Videl glared at him as she reluctantly pulled to interrogate him. It was just too hard for her to concentrate when she was that close to him. No, and remember I can read your thoughts so don't try to lie to me!" She said climbing to her feet and smirking down at him.

"Well uh wouldn't you rather start your flying lesons?"

Videl smiled at his sad little ploy to change the subject. "Well do that later. First I wanna know how you lifted that bus."

Gohan just shrugged. "I've been training all my life practically, I guess I just got really strong."

Videl looked at him angrily she knew he was holding back. She walked over to him and sat down on his lap again only this time she facing him her legs straddling his. She drapped her arms loosely across his broad shoulders and looked deep into his eyes.

"It's okay Gohan I promised you that I wouldn't tell anyone. Don't you trust me."

"Of course I trust you Videl." Gohan sighed. "I just don't want you to think that I'm a freak."

Videl looked shocked, she felt the uneasiness in him and she realized that he really was afraid of what she thought of him. "Gohan." She breathed lifting his face up to look at her. "I would never think that of you. You are the most wonderful, trusting caring person I have ever met. No one has ever treated me as well as you do. Even after I treated you so badly you were still nice to me. If we are bonded for life then I'm the lucky one. Please whatever you are hiding just tell me. It can't possibly be as bad as you think."

"Okay, but don't freak out okay? I'll answer any questions that you have as best that I can okay?"

Videl nodded and gave him a warm hug for trusting her. She climbed off his lap and sat next to him on the grass again. He forced a smile as he took a deep breath.

"I'm a Saiyan."

Videl just continued to stare at him. "What's a Saiyan?"

Gohan thought for a second before replying. "Well Saiyans come from Planet Vegeta."

"Planet?" Videl asked her eyes widing as she was starting to catch on t o what he was saying. "You mean you're an alien?"

Gohan nodded watching her intently. :That explains so much: She thought to herself. "So are parents Saiyans?"

Gohan smiled since Videl hadn't run away screaming. "My mother is human, my father was a Saiyan and me and Goten are half Saiyan, er or Half human depending on the way you look at it."

"Why is the planet named Vegeta? Are you guys related? Are there any other saiyans? Have you ever been to planet Vegeta? How…."

"Whoa! Slow down!" Gohan chuckled. He felt like a weight had been lifted off of him. He didn't have to hide or lie any more. "One at a time… let's see… No Vegeta is the crowned Prince of Vegeta. We are not related" :Thank Kami: Gohan thought to himself and Videl laughed reading her mind. He blushed slightly he had forgotten their bond. "Planet Vegeta was blown up so I never got to go there. My dad and Vegeta were the only survivors."

"How are Saiyans different from humans? You look the same, well except for your hair." Videl said grinning as she ran her hands through his unruly hair. (A/n Wouldn't you just love to do that?)

Gohan blushed rubbing the back of his neck. "Well we're strong, we can harness our energy for attacks, and we eat a lot!"

"Energy attacks?" Videl asked something slowly dawning on her. "That wasn't a meterite was it?" She asked.

Gohan shook his head no again pulling her into his arms. "I'm sorry, I want you to know that I would of killed him if he had hurt you."

Videl looked into his fierce eyes and she believed him. "I know Gohan." Videl said as they softly kissed again.
