Hey guys! This is one of my favorite chapters. I'm sooo sorry I didn't update when I said I would. My wifi is temporarily down so I'm using others when I can. So it might be a bit before I update again. Anyway I'm not sure how many chapters this story will have, but we'll see. Nothing to say right now, so, on with the book.

I couldn't get the smile off of my face. I was running as fast as I could to get to Orange Star High School. I was so happy to see that boy again. I practically tripped over people trying to get there. The closer I got, the more students I saw. The same ones as yesterday too. Including the blonde and her friend.

"Oh! Hi! It's you!" She shouted, grabbing the other girl's hand. I looked at the watch I bought yesterday exactly for this occasion. I had a minute to spare. I waved at her again, stopping in my tracks. "Didn't think I'd see you here again. Do you have a kid here?" She asked with a bright smile. I shook my head "Nope." I don't think so. I thought to myself. "Oh, well, what brings you here again?" She asked. "I'm meeting someone." I said simply. I guess I could put it that way. "Oh? Who?" She asked. "Just a friend." I said quickly. She nodded. "Well, what's your name?" She asked. I smiled, rubbing the back of my head. "Goku. And yours?" I asked with a big smile. She was nice, after all. "Erasa. And this is my friend Videl." She pointed to the black haired one. She scowled, turning away, then blushing slightly. "Well, it was nice to catch up a bit. But I've got to go meet my friend now." I say as politely as possible. She nodded. "Maybe we could hang out some time. You seem really nice." She said. I nodded to her. "I'll see you later!" I say, not minding if I do this time.

I hurried as fast as I could to the school. I was smiling to myself, thinking about what I would say. Before I could even decide, I saw him, walking with a few books in his hands this time. He was looking around in every direction. I quietly walked up to him, stopping right in front of him. "Hi." I said. He jumped, his books flying. I caught them immediately. He raised his eyebrows, then blushed deeply. "Oh, um, hello." He said. I handed him the books. "I'm sorry for scaring you." I said sincerely. He smiled. "It's okay. What brings you here again?" He asked. I blushed a bit. "Uh, I was hoping I'd run into you again." I chuckled. He laughed. "Well, you did. Uh, I'm going shopping for clothes. Care to join me, stranger?" He said in a flirty tone. I laughed outwardly. "Sure. Maybe we can catch up a bit." I say, turning in the direction of the plaza I went to yesterday. He followed me. "So, what's your name?" I asked. "Gohan. And yours?" He said, batting his eyelashes gently. Cute. I thought to myself. I smirked. "Goku. So how old are you?" I asked, guessing around 16. "16." He said simply. Ha! I knew it! "Dead on." I muttered to myself. "What was that?" He asked. I chuckled lightly. "I just guessed that's how old you were. I was praising myself." I laughed. He giggled. "Well, then I'll guess you're age too. You like like you're in your twenties. Twenty-one would be the lowest. Twenty-five tops." He said. I sighed again, just like I did to Erasa. "I'm 35." I said. His eyes bulged out of his skull. "What?! There's no way you're 35!" He said loudly. I laughed. "I am. People say that a lot. I guess I'm immature." I said laughing very hard. Gohan laughed just as hard. "You seem very mature, Goku," He said in a playful tone. "I think it's just your looks. You look extremely young." He said, giving me a reassuring smile. I returned the smile, and thought of what to say next.

"So, got any plans tonight Gohan?" I asked as innocently as possible. He shrugged, looking down at the ground. "Not really. I was just gonna go home and do nothing. Why?" He said casually. My cheeks turned red as hell. "Well, I don't have much going on, do you want to come over and have dinner?" I asked, praying to the gods that he would say yes. He smiled. "Well, I would, but I don't want to interrupt you and your wife." He said. I laughed on the inside. As if. "I don't have a wife Gohan." He stopped completely. "You don't have a wife?!" He said like it was the weirdest thing ever. I shrugged. "Yeah, so?" I said, not really looking at him. He looked embarrassed. "Uh, well, um, y-you know... You're,a-um... hot." He mumbled. Now I looked embarrassed. I couldn't believe he just said that. I wanted to say, "Well you're much hotter." But obviously I didn't. I tried to play it off with a soft chuckle.

"Thanks Gohan. Women can just be hard to deal with, I guess." I said casually. It was true after all. He nodded. "Definitely. Well, uh, Then I guess I will join you. If you really want me to." He said, giving me a tiny smile. I smiled back. "Great! There's never anyone at my house, I'm always lonely." I said giggling a bit. Gohan giggled too. "Same here. I guess we'll both have a change tonight." He said.

I stopped, realizing we were at the shopping mall. "Here we are." I said, pulling the door open for him. "Thank you." He said with a smile. "You're welcome, m'lady." I said with chuckle. He slapped my hand and rolled his eyes, then giggled as well. We walked into the nearest clothing store, with 'STUD' In big black letters. Gohan picked out an arm full of clothes, and tapped my hand. "Will you tell me how they look?" He asked, his cheeks heating up. Aww, how cute. "Of course." I said, following him to the dressing rooms. He tried on each outfit, then came out and showed me. Each one looked good on him. "I have one more." He said, rushing back in. He came out a moment later with something I wasn't expecting to see. He was wearing a pair of black shorts that rode low on his hips with a matching belt hanging loosely on them. He also wore a black wife beater and a necklace.

My eyes fell out of my head.

The wife beater was tight, hugging his muscular chest, and now I could see his arms that were well hidden by the baggy white shirt he had for school. They were toned and large, but still a bit smaller than mine. The shorts were tight as well, hugging in all the right places.

I sat there gawking at him like an idiot. He was so sexy.

"What do you think? He asked nervously. I managed to say something after a moment. "You look...HOT." I couldn't stop myself from saying it. His face lit up. "Thanks, you really think so? I don't usually wear black." He said. "Well you should." I said immediately. His face got even redder. "Well, then I'll get the outfit. Let me change out of it." He said. He went back in the dressing room. I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding. I hoped he wore that outfit again soon. I looked down at my pants to see that my hard on was very visible. I blushed and readjusted my pants to it was slightly less so.

"Uh, Goku, could you, um, help me?" I heard Gohan say. I pulled open the door to see he had the necklace tangled up in the shirt with his arm half-in and half-out of the hole. "I kinda got stuck." He laughed a bit. I smiled. "I'll help you." I said, walking forward. I untangled the necklace and pulled it off of him, then moved his arm back in. I pulled the shirt slowly over his head. As I did, I got a look at his chest. My cheeks heated up as I stared. His body was so beautiful. I cleared my throat, and pulled it the rest of the way off. I handed it to him. "Thanks for helping me." He said quietly. I nodded. "No problem. I'll wait outside." I said, turning and pulling open the door. Gohan smiled, but said nothing. I closed the door behind me, breathing heavily. I needed some fresh air.

Gohan came out with all of the clothes he picked out. "I'm done." He said. We walked up to the register. She smiled at us, and took all of the hangers off of the shirts. "200,000 zeni please." She said nicely. Gohan pulled out his wallet and handed her the money. I raised my eyebrows. "You want me to help pay for that?" I asked. He shook his head. "No, I have enough. Thank you though." He said. She bagged the clothes and handed them to him. "Have a good day you two." She said. Me and Gohan smiled and walked out of the store. "Wow, you have a lot of money. How did you get all of that?" I asked. He frowned. "I have a job." He said quietly. "Oh? What do you do?" I asked. He looked like he was about to cry. "I don't want to talk about it." He said, his voice shaking. I put my hand on his shoulder. "Hey, it's okay. I was just wondering. If you don't feel like sharing you don't have to." I said softly. He smiled. "Thank you." He said. We continued to walk back towards my house. I didn't want to scare Gohan so I obviously couldn't fly back.

"So, what do you want for dinner?" I asked, trying to start some conversation. He scratched his head. "I don't care. What ever you feel like making." He said. I still had some left overs from last night. "Do you like mochi ice cream?" I asked. He smiled warmly. "It's my favorite dessert." He said. I smiled back at him. "Then that'll be on the menu." I chuckled. "I'm already hungry." He laughed. I laughed with him. I really loved this kid.

When we got to my house, I had Gohan sit in the living room while I prepared the meal. I made another serving of the noodles and shrimp so there was enough for both of us. There was plenty of dessert left. I let it thaw for a bit so it wasn't hard as rock. When I finished the main dish I placed two plates on the table and left two small ones with the dessert in the kitchen. "It's ready!" I said. Gohan got up from the couch and came to the dining room. I sat down in the chair across from him and started eating. "Whoa, this is amazing Goku." He said with a smile. I blushed. "Thank you. I never thought I was any good at cooking. i'm glad someone likes it." I said. He nodded. "It's much better than anything I've ever made. And I must say, I'm not bad at cooking." He said with a chuckle. I smiled. "I'll bring dessert out when you're done." I said. I was already done with my food. Gohan looked at my plate. "Wow, you ate fast." He said, still working on his plate. I patted my stomach and smiled. "I love food." I said. Gohan finished his soon enough and I took our plates to the sink. I came back with the ice cream. Gohan licked his lips. "Looks good." I set a plate in front of him. He picked one of the balls and ate it. His eyes widened. "This is the best dessert I've ever had." he said, grabbing another. I chuckled. "That's very nice of you to say, but I doubt it." I said. he shook is head. "I'm not lying."

When we finished, we sat on the couch to watch some TV before bed. "Hey Gohan?" I said. He looked at me. "Yeah?" I sighed. "Are you alright? With out parents I mean?" I asked. He looked down. "I'm okay. I make money. I can get food and clothes when I need them." He said sadly. I frowned. "How's your home? What's it like?" I asked. He looked up at me. a couple tears fell from his eyes. "I don't have a real house. I usually sleep in a tree. I don't have enough money for a real one because it costs a lot to go to the school I attend." he said. I moved closer to him. "Gohan, what's your job?" I asked softly. He cried more. "I-I... I strip. B-but, my boss is a pervert, a-and at the place I w-work, they have t-this, 'role playing' thing, where they have five guys in a room, and a rape victim..." He sniffled. "And my boss usually makes me do it. T-they chain me, a-and..." His head dropped into his arms as he cried out. I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, pulling him to my chest. "Gohan... It's okay. Don't cry."I said softly. "Do you want to live with me? I'll pay the funds for your school, and you can quit your job. I'll take care of you from now on. You'll never have to go back to that place." I said. Gohan looked up at me. "R-really?" He asked. I smiled and nodded. He hugged me tight. "Thank you so much Goku. You're amazing." He said. I hugged him back. I let go of him to get up and get some tissues. He followed me. "Here you go." I said, handing him the tissues. He wiped his eyes. "I still can't believe you don't have a wife or anything. You're so kind and handsome." He said. I shook my head. "Gohan, I'm not that great. I'm just like any other person." Not power wise, but looks and attitude. Gohan shook his head. "But you are that great. You gave me a home. That's something a lot of people wouldn't do." He said. I turned and looked at him, stepping closer. "Gohan, anyone who wouldn't help someone as beautiful and gentle as you is a fool." I said, staring him deeply in the eyes. He bit his lip. I leaned forward. "You are beautiful." I whispered. "G-Goku." He hesitated, then leaned forward slightly. "Are you okay with this?" I whispered. He nodded. "I am if you are." He said quietly. I leaned forward the rest of the way, and I kissed Gohan.
