Chapter 12
Gohan flew home slowly. He was exhausted mentally and physically. Vegetas words flowing through his mind. :Easier said than done: He thought as he neared his home. Not wanting to disturb his mother he stopped next to his window and silently entered. He saw Goten sound asleep in the bed next to his. Oh to be young and carefree again. Of course his life had never been carefree. He thought back to all of the horrors that he had gone through as a child, all the hardships that he had faced. He fell to his knees as tears tailed down his cheeks and prayed to Kami that Goten and his children would never have to survive what he was forced to endure. :My children?: He thought to himself, :Where had that come from?: he pondered as an Image of Videl crept into his head. He knew that his father had sheltered him from much harm and that he had given his life so that Gohan's would be easier from then on. And it had been but Gohan would of gladly accepted the danger to have his father back. Even if for just one day.
Gohan awoke with the sun awaking in his window. His room was bathed in soft pink and yellows from the rays reaching in to awaken him. He groaned and lay back with his arm covering his eyes. He had only had a couple of hours sleep. He was about to drift back when all the air was pushed out of his body.
"Good morning Goten." Gohan gasped when he was able to speak. Goten was jumping happily on Gohan's stomach.
"Come on mom said I couldn't eat until you came down. Hurry up!!" He squealed as Gohan grabbed him and threw him across the room where he bounced off of his bed and landed on the floor. He hopped up a second later chanting "Again, again!"
"Enough!" Gohan growled louder than he meant to. He saw the crestfallen look on Goten's face and immediately regretted yelling at the little boy. Vegetas words again went through his mind as Chi-chi popped her head in the door.
"Is everything okay up here?" She asked looking worriedly at Gohan he never raised his voice especially not to Goten.
"Yeah I'm sorry mom I'm just a bit tired." Gohan mumbled as he climbed out of bed and headed to the bathroom for a shower. (a/n in MY fic they have an indoor bathroom!)
Gohan flew to school he felt Videls ki and increased his speed. Gosh he missed her. He landed on the roof and quickly transformed into Gohan. (A/n I'm sure you know he always flys as the Great Saiyaman right? Okay I'm gonna be quiet now) He took the stairs too at a time and slide into his seat just as the second bell was ringing. Videl flashed him a smile and he blushed as he felt a warm feeling fill him.
"Glad you decided to Join us today Gohan." The teacher said sarcastically. Gohan was notorious for being late to class. Gohan slinked down in his seat. The teacher launched into his boring monologue as Gohan focused on Videl. She was so beautiful he thought. As he took into her neatly parted hair and pigtails. He remembered how she let it hang loose yesterday and how soft it was when he ran his fingers through it.
Videl looked over and grinned at him mischievously. :Gohan the teacher just asked you a question.:
Gohan spun around quickly to see the teacher glaring down at him. "Gohan, if you are not going to pay attention there is no use in you being here. Now answer the question."
Gohan sat there nervously. He sweat dropped he know the question, he didn't even know what his speech was about.
:He wants to know which continent that you can penguins on.: Videl told him.
"Antarctica." Gohan replied. As the teachers face fell. He eyed him suspiciously as he headed back to the front of the room. :Gee, thanks Videl.:
:You owe me.: Videl replied evilly. And Gohan cringed as he tried to focus on the class. Luckily next hour was free time and gym after that. Videl had Eraser switch spots with her so she could talk to Gohan.
"What happen last night? I was worried about you." Videl whispered not wanting anyone else to hear.
Gohan swallowed hard as her leg brushed up against his. He tried to ignore it as he answered her. "Not much I just went out to Capsule to talk to Vegeta."
"Capsule? As in Capsule Corp?" Videl asked here eyes wide.
"Yeah. He's Bulma's mate."
"You KNOW Bulma Briefs?" Videl said a little too loud as their classmates looked over at them in surprise.
"Of course, I've known Bulma forever. She was a close friend to my dad."
"Is that how she met Vegeta?"
"Kinda, it's a really long story." Gohan told her not wanting to say too much with everyone gawking at them. "Anyhow, Goten spent the night there if you. If you want to you can come with me after school, I told my mom I'd bring him home with me. Side's I still owe you your lesson."
Videl smiled. "I'd love to go!" :I'd go anywhere with you Gohan.: Videl said winking at him. Sharpner who was listening to their entire conversation, frowned suddenly as he walked over to Videl.
"I thought you were going to the diner after school with us." He said glaring at Gohan. Videl could feel Gohan's ki rising and put her hand on his arm to calm him down. :Geez he's jumpy today.: Videl thought to herself forgetting that Gohan could hear her.
"I changed my mind I'm going with Gohan." Videl said irritated at him. She saw Gohan take a deep breath and begin to relax.
"Did I miss something?" Sharpner asked staring at Videl's hand on Gohan's arm.
Videl smirked as Gohan blushed. She slid her hand up Gohan's arm to his elbow as she rested her head on his shoulder. "Yes." She said snuggling against him.
She heard Eraser giggle next to her as Sharpner turned and stalked out of the room. Gohan could feel his face getting even redder as he looked down at her. Unable to resist he lowered his face to her head and inhaled to sweet essence of her hair. He could feel the heat building up in his body as he laid his head on top of hers.
Videl saw the teacher eyeing them disapprovingly and Videl regretfully pulled away a little. "So you never did tell me what Vegeta said." Videl said looking up at him.
Gohan shock his head ruefully "Trust me, you don't want to know." The bell rang angrily and Videl reluctantly returned to her seat to get her things.
Their next class is gym. (YES Videl is in ALL of Gohan's classes!! Ironic huh?)
The coach had everyone meet in the gym for an announcement. Gohan tried desperately to pay attention but it was hard with Videl being so close.
"Class as you may of heard already but thanks to a generous donation from Capsule corp. We were given new uniforms !" The coach said excitedly. There was a few scattered claps and he looked disappointed. "Any way boys get blue and girls get red."
"What about the sizes?" Asked Eraser. As they formed two lines.
"That's the beauty of it! One size fits all." The coach replied smiling.
"Sure." Videl muttered picking up one of the small red bundles.
Gohan picked up a blue one he looked at it strangely as a thought dawned on him. He held up the one piece spandex suite and groaned. :I'm gonna get you for this Vegeta!!: He silently cursed the man and heard a sweet giggling sound as he looked over to see Videl watching him. He forced a smile as she waved and disappeared into the girls dressing room.
Thanks again!!!
