Hello again! Here is finally the second chapter of this story. There isn't as much drama as I planned, but I still hope you enjoy it.

Before getting started, thank you for the review dragon96! Let me assure you I really take them in consideration when I write. For this chapter, I tried to keep the guys into character as much as possible. By the way, I enjoyed writing it! =)

Just to not break the tradition, let me say, I owe nothing but this crazy product of my imagination. All the characters and the DBZ thing belong to Toriyama. T_T

Chapter 2

Her New Body

"You are such an idiot" mumbled Piccolo, still frozen by Gohan's words "why didn't you just tell me so? Why did you make this wish?"

"I… didn't wish for it, Shen Long took it the wrong way…"

"Shen Long heard the wish inside your mind" she told him "he never takes things the wrong way"

"Piccolo…" Gohan didn't know how to follow from there. What should he say? If Piccolo saw in his mind what probably Shen Long did, the embarrassment he felt would certainly multiply by a million now. "Piccolo I…"

"Shut it kid" she looked away.

Gohan felt a shiver run all over his spine. The woman's voice was soft and had a bit of sweetness, but something in the way she said that… just the way of saying it… it was totally Piccolo's way.

Piccolo sighed. She turned her gaze to stare at Gohan. She knew the kid; she had known him since he was four, and by that time he (for she was a he back then) had felt the tender love of a father for his child. The same feeling crept inside his heart as years passed by: on the Freezer thing, when Cell came, when Goten was born…

But years passed by, faster than Piccolo would have like to. Years of visits and nonsense chatting (you know, having a teenage boy talking about school and stuff like that). Then Bu came inside de picture and Gohan was no longer either a child or a teenager, but had nearly turned into a man. He would've never admitted it, but the very moment Vegeta told him Gohan was death, his heart stopped beating and the pain he felt was close to the one a sharp knife would do if incrusted inside it. That's when he first noticed: he was falling in love with the boy.

However things didn't come out right for him to be with his beloved one. A girl was stealing his hearth. After the Bu incident, Videl became a nice girl: she showed even interest in knowing Piccolo better, since he was Gohan's best friend. Piccolo understood that he had to step back, being a namekian after all. He wanted Gohan to be happy, no matter what, so he gave him his blessing despite the hearth break, which healed a bit when Gohan broke up with her.

Now everything went clear as she stared at Gohan's eyes. Gohan loved her too, but was too afraid to tell her for some unknown reason. She blushed, a thing she'd been doing for a while now, her saiyan body responding to emotions like his namekian one would've never done.

Gohan looked expectantly at her. He had just confessed aloud his love! What was she going to say now? And he sensed the person before him was still Piccolo… HIS Piccolo…

"I…" began mumbling the girl "Gohan I…" her heart was pounding so fast, was it because of the nervous feeling she had? Her namekian body was easier to control, or was it because of the years of practicing in it? After a few agonizing seconds, she spit out a "Let's get moving kid" Gohan looked at her with a 'confusion' look.

'Well done, that came out pretty well!' she thought. Piccolo turned her back on Gohan "I want to find out if I can turn super sayian as soon as possible" she justified.

"Yes… of course" Gohan whispered. Piccolo began flying again towards the Kami sama's tower. 'I wonder if she… if HE feels the same for me…' he thought as he followed his former mentor. 'No, I don't think so. He would have said something…'

A few minutes later they came inside the Room of Time. A strange feeling came over both warriors; finding themselves completely alone for the first time in a while, and being aware of their feelings… it was overwhelming.

Piccolo decided to make the first move. She slowly took off the shoulder's weights she always carried with along with the cape, and removed her turban. Gohan decided to mimic her as he took of his white shirt and removed his shoes. Neither of them would admit it, but they were spying each other from the corner of their eyes.

She had a gorgeous body. Gohan noticed right away from the very moment she took off the weights, and even when he tried Piccolo not to notice, she soon got him staring at her.

The same happened to Gohan; Piccolo would give a glance every now and then to stare at the boy's worked out body. He wasn't wearing anything down the shirt, so his tanned muscles showed even better. A faint smell of sweat came to her sayian nose, giving her a shiver up to her spine. 'What is happening to me?' she asked herself, noticing Gohan glaring at her, causing her blushing 'I shouldn't feel this way about him, I decided that long ago!'

"What are you staring at?" she asked aloud.

"Well…" mumbled Gohan "It's just… how to put it… you should… change your clothes…" Gohan was blushing violently.

"What for?"

"Ehm… you know, because you are a girl now and… well… your gi…" Gohan didn't know how to tell her: her gi was still the same she wore while being a guy, and back then it would always shown a bright, green, male chest… but now that she was a girl, it would only show the curves of a fine pair of breasts… So he merely pointed to her, hopefully she would get the idea.

Piccolo turned her eyes down to check on her breasts. She instinctively raised her right hand to gently brush the in between, and then curve of her breasts followed. Gohan was right, her gi was exposing them too much. She really didn't know why that was a problem, and really didn't care about it.

But Gohan thought differently.

Yes, it was truth that this person was still the same Piccolo he knew, only the body different; but what is to be done, when you have been in love for so long to a man who cannot consummate love and then, suddenly, he has the right body to do so? What could he do, if he actually felt attraction to the female body, and now his infatuation had a gorgeous one? And just staring at the way she explored her new body… the heat he felt was intoxicating.

Then Piccolo did something Gohan never expected. She took off the top of her gi. Gohan, his face now completely red, felt that his heart would explode inside his chest; he turned his back on her to stop staring at her exposed upper body.

Walking slowly, she moved towards the bathroom, so she could contemplate her reflexion on the mirror. She stared at herself, her back facing the opened bathroom door, and cursed again the dammed change she suffered. That body was too sensitive! Every movement she did with her hands gently cupping her breasts made her whether shiver or feel like giggling. She hated that.

Gohan, on the other hand, was sitting in lotus position, failing in his attempts to meditate. Every time he closed his eyes the only picture that might pop out inside his mind would be Piccolo's firm, topless breasts…

"Gohan" she said approaching him "are you alright?"

Gohan was sweating, his eyes were shut and a slight pain, now getting stronger, was all he felt in between his legs.

"Eh… yes… I'm fine really just… just give me a few minutes and I'll be fine…" he said, almost panting.

"What's wrong kid?" she asked, leaning down to reach his level.

Gohan stared at her. She was wearing her gi again, only this version didn't have a too opened V neck, but it had a white turtle neck on it, just as Gohan's purple battle suit had when he was a kid.

"What?" she asked "Oh… this… it's just that you looked really uncomfortable around me with the other."

Gohan smiled. Piccolo sat next to him and both meditated for a while. That was refreshing; Gohan could sense Piccolo inside his mind, and that feeling finally gave peace to his excited body. The pain between his legs took a little longer to dissipate, but it finally did after a few more agonizing minutes.

They decided that it was the best to meditate the rest of the day; in that way, Piccolo could adjust to her new body mentally before starting physically.

That idea didn't last for long.

After a many hours of meditation, Piccolo felt empty again. Her stomach was making funny noises, and she opened her eyes and placed a hand on her abdomen. "It feels empty again" she whispered.

"You must be hungry" Gohan said "let's find something to eat"

"I feel dizzy" she whispered again.

Gohan got closer and placed a hand on her forehead. "You have no fever" he told her, gently "I believe you are weak since you have never eaten before. The meal you got this morning might have not been enough"

"I hate this"

"I know" Gohan was feeling guilty again "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for this to happen"

Piccolo didn't answer. She remained silent while staring at the floor, trying hard to think of something to say.

"I'm going to find you some food" that being said, Gohan stood up and moved to the kitchen. When he returned, he had already placed some meat, two large bowls of soup, some salad, a couple of apples and a cake on a table. "This place is really magical, there's plenty of food for both of us" he told her, while approaching "can you walk?"

"Yes" she stood up and began walking. Three steps later she had to stop; the dizziness made everything blurry.

"Here" said Gohan, raising her from her feet, and carrying her princess style to the kitchen. She slightly blushed.

"You don't have to do this Gohan" she said.

"It's only for you to eat something, then you would be able to walk on your own" he gave her his Son smile. Piccolo smiled back, remembering how she used to carry Gohan like that when he was a kid. It was funny to think that he did the same for her now that she needed it.

They sat at the table facing each other and began tasting the food. A couple of minutes later, even Piccolo was a little afraid of the way she was eating; Gohan would only look at her and smile nervously, as he saw her devouring almost everything. He had to hurry up a bit or else she would eat it all. It was a wonderful thing that the room would keep on producing food magically, or they would have definitely starved by the end of the first week.

After they finished eating, and Gohan finished cleaning up the table (a habit his mother forced him to learn), Piccolo felt dizzy again, but in another sort of way. She yawned, and turned to Gohan in search for an answer.

"I have felt sleepy before" she told him as he stared at her in confusion "but never this sleepy"

"It is probably because you ate too much" answered Gohan with a smile "the day it's almost over, according to my calculations. We should probably go to rest now"

She agreed. Her body was different from the namekian one; eating too much, sleeping a lot more, reacting to everything… she would have a long year trying to get used to it. And after that year, she would have to wait another one outside the room! She hadn't thought of that. 'Maybe we could stay here only a couple of weeks' she thought.

Gohan interrupted her thoughts. She saw him moving from the bathroom where he just cleaned up his teeth (another nice habit provided by his mother) and moved to the room's floor, where he placed a blanket before sitting on it.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"I'm sleeping on the floor so you can take the bed" he answered, as if it was the most logical thing to do.

"Dammed kid! The fact that I look like a woman doesn't mean you have to treat me like one!"

"But…"

"Shut it! I'm sleeping on the floor" that wasn't open to discussion.

Gohan didn't reply, of course. He moved right from the floor to the bed. Piccolo entered the bathroom; she had an idea that she had to clean her up before sleeping, just like Gohan did. She didn't like the taste of food on her mouth after eating, so she cleaned her teeth the best she could. When she returned the room, Gohan was already under the sheets of the bed, sitting as if waiting for her to return.

"Are you sure you want the floor?"

"Yes!" she shouted "go get some sleep kid. We begin training tomorrow"

"Sure" he answered, not really convinced about letting her get the floor "good night"

"'Night kid"

She laid on the floor and shut her eyes. Not long after, she had to change her position to another so she could get comfortable. A few minutes later, she had to do it again, and again and again. Her body wasn't really suitable for sleeping; her breasts got in the way and her back hurt with every bad position she took. Gohan stared at her from the bed, searching in the darkness for her beautiful figure. After watching her struggling for an hour, he decided to talk.

"If you can't sleep, I can give you the bed"

"Oh damned you! Why can't I sleep on the floor? I always sleep on the floor!"

"Your body is different, it is a new body, so it isn't used to the hardness of the floor" Gohan shrugged "but my body is" he added, hopefully she wouldn't get angry.

"Fine" she finally said "but only because I need to rest for tomorrow's training"

Gohan chuckled and stood off the bed. She stared at Gohan as he left the bed, and noticed that he was actually sleeping on his boxers. Gohan sat next to her on the floor. It took her a few seconds to put herself together before moving to the bed.

Gohan grabbed another blanket from a pile next to the bed to cover up himself. He turned to his side so his back would face the bed, and whispered another 'good night, Piccolo' before getting asleep. Piccolo didn't answer, but merely stared at Gohan from the bed.

'This kid…' she thought to herself 'he's no longer a kid' she sighed, searching for Gohan's silhouette in the darkness of the room 'I never thought I could be in this position… Gohan… could it be possible? That I…' she shut her eyes. Gently, her muscles began relaxing as his thoughts faded away in a dream from past, with him and Gohan sparring as they used to, and his heart pounding fast inside his chest, thinking of the day the kid would grow old enough to confess him his true feelings for him…

"Gohan…" she mumbled in her sleep. "Go… han… I… love… you too…"

Gohan took a deep breath on the floor, changing his sleeping position, and totally unaware of her words. He sighed while dreaming of his beloved one.

"Pi…cco…lo…"
