| Lip-Locked Chapter 2 Disclaimer: Just loyal #1 DBZ fan�putting teenage Gohan through the turmoil of being� teenage. Long story short� I don�t own DBZ or any of its characters� but I swear it�s real!!!!!!!!!!!!! *** Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh� Gohannnnnnnnnnnnnnnn������������. Oh hey! To answer some of your questions� this story takes place in a world where Buu never happened. And they never entered the tournament. Just pretend Videl offered to keep Gohan�s Saiyaman secret in return for learning how to fly. She has her short hair, and, since Buu didn�t happen we are all going to pretend that Goku�s back on Earth. We�re only twisting the storyline a tad, eh? LIP-LOCKED CHAPTER 2 �VIDEL!� Hercule�s eyes looked like they�d pop out of his head any minute. �Dad! It was just an innocent kiss!� Hercule started nodding. �Yeah, sure, okay, fine! It was just an innocent kiss� WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY HE HAS HIS HANDS ALL OVER YOU!� �Not all over me.� Hercule screamed. �Get OUT!� He grabbed Gohan and tried to toss him out of the room. But, of, course, couldn�t even pick him up. Saiyans can be mighty stubborn sometimes. Hecule tried again. When he found that he couldn�t lift this mere boy he stood back and put on that boastful tone of voice. �Listen, if I wanted to I could crush you like a small piece of fruit. Get out of my house NOW!� Gohan dropped his head and shouldered his backpack, sighing. He left the room. Things would probably be better if he didn�t start anything. �Wait, Gohan!� Videl followed him. �I�ll give you your shirt tomorrow.� Gohan nodded and exited the house. �WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING BY THAT, VIDEL?� Hercule screeched �Shut up, dad,� Videl said, slamming her door on his face. Videl stared at her math book and shut it, slipping it into her backpack. She changed into her pajamas, brushed her teeth, and hopped into bed. She tossed and turned until two o�clock in the morning. Everything that had happened that night had really been� strange, and now that was the only thing on her mind,,, that kiss� She threw off her covers and walked to her window, opening it and letting a cool breeze enter the room. Maybe if I just kill Gohan I�ll be able to sleep�she mused. I wonder if he�s even thinking of me� Gohan opened the door to his house and slipped into his bedroom, placing his backpack on the floor. He moved quietly so as not to wake Goten up. It was two o�clock in the morning, he had gone for a very long flight to the middle of nowhere to sort out his feelings but it hadn�t really done any good because he still wasn�t quite sure about how he felt. He climbed into bed and put his hands behind his head. He wasn�t at all sleepy. Gohan heard his dad snoring in the other room. Videl�Gohan smiled. Hm? I wonder how dad felt when he married mom. Was it the same warm feeling I get inside when I think of Videl? GOHAN! WARNING! WARNING! DON�T THINK LIKE THAT! Oh, get a hold of yourself, Gohan! She�s rich, she�s famous� she�s beautiful� she�s everything you definitely can�t get� stop fooling yourself. The kiss probably meant nothing to her anyways. The next day Gohan was absentmindedly wandering the Orange Star High School campus on his lunch hour when he noticed two girls in his English class standing by their car looking unhappy. �Do you two need help?� Gohan asked politely. One of the girls batted her eyelashes at him. �Yes. My car isn�t working.� �Okay, thanks for narrowing all the problems down,� Gohan said with a smile, dropping his bag onto the asphalt. The girls giggled. Gohan threw them an odd look and popped open the hood of the car. After a minute of inspection he shrugged. �Everything looks fine, I�m sorry I don�t know what could be wrong with it. Usually I�m pretty good at figuring this stuff out, Bulma once showed me-� One of the girls grabbed his arm. �Bulma? Bulma as in THE Bulma Brief? Wow!� Gohan gave her a small smile. Yeah, as in THE Bulma Brief. Really. How many �Bulmas� can there be anyways? �Yeah, Bulma Brief,� he answered. Gohan checked the oil. �You have enough oil,� he stated. �Enough what?� The girl asked still clinging to his arm. �Oil, and could you please detach yourself from my arm?� The girl frowned and let go of his arm. What was it with girls? Most seemed to latch onto him like he was the last breathing male on the planet� first Erasa, then Angela, now Videl and him were getting all weird� Gohan opened the driver�s seat door and started the engine. �Well, there�s your problem! You don�t have any-� The hood of the car slammed shut, Gohan jumped a foot in the air, hitting his head on the top of the car. �I HATE it when that happens!� Videl stood there, laughing her head off. �Real funny,� Gohan said. He turned to the other girls, �You�re out of gas.� He shut the door and walked up to Videl. �So what�s up, Gohan? Playing �hero� again?� Gohan laughed an glanced over his shoulder. Both girls were now pouting at the sudden attention Videl was getting. �Um� not really. What do you want?� �Just wanted to see how you were doing.� �Oh.� �Yeah.� They both looked around for a minute. �Ummmm�� Videl said, thinking of something to say. After all, what do you say to your best friend that you just kissed? Gohan ran his hand through his hair. He read a bulletin attached to one of the school�s parking signs: ORANGE STAR HIGH SCHOOL HONORS DANCE AND AWARDS CEREMONY PARENTS AND STUDENTS INVITED SATURDAY 8:30 - 1:00 ORANGE STAR AUDITORIUM WELCOME TO ATTEND IF YOU HAVE A GPA OVER 3.0 FREE FOOD, MUSIC, DRINKS, AND FUN STUFF TO DO (A/N: I couldn�t come up with anything better. So sue me. (Not really.)) That�s it! �Hey, Videl, um� I was wondering if you�d like to �um� go to the Orange Star High School honors dance with me tomorrow?� Gohan scratched the back of his head. �But if you already have plans�� Videl considered it for a moment. She had never been to a dance, and had never planned on going to one. But� for Gohan she�d make an exception. �Sure.� Gohan had the most surprised expression on his face. �Really? �Yup, pick me up at 8:00.� With that, Videl left. Gohan stood still, dumbfounded. �Dende! what did I just do!� Gohan exclaimed� smacking himself in the head. *** This chapter was necessary to continue the chapter before and set up the next chapter. They go to the dance. Originally I was going to have Videl go to his house� but then Gohan only would have been embarrassed in front of the Z gang� I want him embarrassed in front of� THE WHOLE SCHOOL! Yes� I have something in store for him. (He should run while he can!) So sorry this one wasn�t as funny or anything�but trust me� we are working up to it� <smirks a maliciously evil smirk that would make Vegeta cower into the darkest recesses of his gravity chamber> Love ya! |
