Chapter V

About nine months later ChiChi and Gohan came through the door and ChiChi had a baby with her. Some of the other girls came around her to try and see the baby but she tried to avoid them as much as she could. 18 and I stayed in the corner of the hallway and watched her come through. Goku came out of one of the rooms and stood by 18, "What are you looking at?"

"Get out of here," 18 mumbled.

Goku caught sight of ChiChi and the child in her arms and he stopped dead in his tracks. It almost seemed like he had no idea that this was going to happen. 18 sighed at him, she always told me she couldn't stand how stupid he was.

"Are you telling us you had no idea," 18 yelled.

"I must have forgot," Goku laughed.

"You are an idiot. Hey Videl, I heard there was something you wanted to ask Bulma."

"What was that? How Vegeta could reach her to kiss her," Goku laughed.

"Shut up," 18 said, "Anyway she's coming back to see ChiChi today because they were best friends when she worked here. ChiChi was luckier than Bulma because ChiChi got pregnant before she had to work and now all she does is waste her training on this idiot."

Goku laughed, "It's good training."

"Shut up," 18 snapped at him, "Well Videl you better stop kissing Gohan or his mom might have to have another kid to get him out of here again."

Goku laughed at this again but 18 wasn't amused by him. Madam came over to ChiChi madder than I'd ever seen her, "Are you incapable of having girls? No more, I will make sure of it."

Gohan looked around the hallway and he caught my eye. We looked at each other for a while but he just followed his mother away. I sighed and watched him go, what could I do?

"Why don't you go to your girlfriend? Oh God, why don't you just marry her already. It sounds stupid to say that you are her boyfriend," 18 said hitting Goku on the shoulder.

"I don't know. Maron told me that I couldn't marry her. Wait, that's what she told ChiChi."

"Who cares, elope."

"Whatever that means."

"Jesus Christ you are stupid aren't you?"

As they went on fighting I ran down the hall to see if I could catch Gohan. He was going into his room alone when I spotted him down the hall. I started to run to catch up to him before he shut the door. "Gohan wait," I yelled, but he didn't hear me. Luckily, I slid and caught the door with my foot before it completely shut. He turned when I came in and shut the door behind me.

"Gohan?"

We just looked at each other for a while. I wasn't exactly sure what to say to him, I wanted to know if he missed me like I missed him. He stayed where he was but I inched closer to him. As soon as I was close enough I threw myself into his arms and held on to him tight. I felt myself start to lose my composure but he was holding on to me so I was okay. If he was holding me that must have meant that he missed. I looked up at him and broke away from him.

"What did you do while you were gone," I asked him backing up a little.

"Took care of my mom mostly."

"Oh."

There was silence for a minute and I just stared at the floor. I felt him grab my arm, "It's your turn." I smiled back at him but his only lasted a few seconds.

"What is it?"

"You only have a few more years."

"Wh-," I couldn't say anything to reassure him about anything because I had no idea what was going to happen to me. Besides if I talked I would have burst into tears and I didn't want to cry in front of him.

I came out of his room feeling horrible about things that I couldn't even help. My fate was already sealed and I couldn't change the writing now. This is where I was born and this is what I was born to do. Right? What could I do?

18 was waiting for me with Goku in the same spot. "You think he would be excited to see his kid and wife," 18 scoffed.

"I'm excited but she's been mobbed with people so I'll leave her alone for a few minutes," Goku responded.

"Yeah and then you'll have your reunion at night right? So you guys can fuck each other all night. Just don't keep me up."

"Sure thing 18," Goku responded without even flinching at her words.

The door opens as 18 tries to get Goku at some thing. Bulma walks in on King Vegeta's arm. "Hey Vegeta," Goku yells happily but Vegeta just ignores him. Vegeta lets Bulma go and she keeps walking.

"This is your chance to speak up," 18 whispers.

I nod and try to get her attention, "Excuse me miss….uh Bulma!"

She stops and turns to me, "Huh? Yes?"

"I was just wondering if I could ask you a question?"

"Well I'm kind of limited on time but if you can make it quick," She says glancing back at Vegeta who is now occupied with Goku.

"Great. I realize how lucky you are to get out of here and I congratulate you on that but," I glance back to make sure Vegeta isn't listening, "Do you love him?"

Bulma doesn't answer me right away. Instead she glances back at Vegeta too. Then she looks at 18 and back to me, "Does that really matter?"

"I think so."

"How old are you," She asked.

"Thirteen."

"You'll know in a couple years okay."

That was not what I wanted to hear at all, "I want to know now Miss…Bulma." But she didn't stop that time, she just kept walking. I put my head down and thought of what Gohan had said to me. It wasn't what he said but the way he said it, maybe he loved me.

At night I went back to his room and climbed in bed with him. He just looked at me and sighed like he used to. "Get out of my bed," he said shaking his head.

I got out and handed him the box, "Let me in your bed."

Gohan sighed, took that box and as soon as I got in handed it back, "Get out of my bed."

I repeated what I had done before, "Let me back in."

He took it, sighed and finally gave up, "Okay what do you want?"

"You always ask me that same question every time I come in your room. What do you think I want?"

Gohan looked at me for a minute, "Aren't you still too young for that?"

I hit him, "Shut up not that. Don't mistake your fantasy for mine."

"Okay Videl."

"Sorry I didn't mean to find out your secret."

He hit me a little and laughed. "Shut up Videl."

"But seriously Gohan if that's what you want just tell me cause that's what I'm hear for."

"Shut up," he said making me laugh.

"I love you Gohan," I whispered to him.

He didn't say anything for a minute making me nervous. "Stop joking around."

I sighed, "What's your mom going to think when she finds out you have been in bed with me?" As I said this I started to pull the straps of my dress off my arm and a look of panic crossed his face.

"What are you doing?"

"Making it more incriminating for you," I laughed.

He grabbed the straps and tried to pull them back up, "Stop."

"Stop?" I reached for his hands and held on to them. We looked each other in the eyes for a moment and I laughed at him, "You are so nervous aren't you. You could help me you know."

"What?"

"Help me," I reached for his pants and he jumped back making me laugh at him.

"Quit it."

"Oh poor Gohan." I wrapped my arms around his neck and tried to kiss him but he moved back. " Sorry. I won't do that." So instead of kissing him on the lips I kissed his neck and he tried to pull away. Obviously not very hard or else he would have gotten away from me. Eventually I felt his body relax and I found his lips and kissed him the way I originally wanted to.
