Digimon Fan Fiction / Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Rika's Wish ❯ Starting Over ( Chapter 9 )

"Videl hold on a second were do you think you are going?" Gohan was right behind her and videl was walking deeper into the park just mad at the fact that she is actually in a different dimension.

"Who cares were I go it is better then being here." Videl finally stopped walking and just stood there just looking out at the sun.

"Well if you want to go I cant stop you but I can say that if you leave I might not be able to find you if I find a way home." Gohan was right behind her and told her this and she turned around with an eyebrow raised.

"How would you do that?" She was interested how he would get them home.

Gohan just shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know but there has to be a way back if there was a way here you know."

Videl just shook her head, "I guess you right." She sighed in defeat and boy she hated loosing.

"Of course I am now lets go back so we can get some sleep cause I am bushed." Gohan said yawning at the end.

Videl laughed a little liking the kid persona he had. So they walked back to find michael just sitting next to a tree and it looked like he was in deep thought to but it broke when he say gohan and videl coming towards him.

"So you two look like you could use some sleep well the place I am taking you is not the most comfortable but it keeps you out of the weather." He starts to float a little and takes of into the sky. Videl is eyes are huge for seeing this first gohan and now this guy. Gohan starts to fly away to until he hears a "hey" from behind him.

He looks over and sees videl pouting and tapping one foot on the ground. "Oops sorry videl I forgot."

"Whatever." She says. Gohan goes down to her and scoops her up in his and hands and starts to fly away. Videl was turning red a little bit with the close contact that was happening with a boy. Gohan on the other hand was like a cherry he was blushing madly and he tried to think up of way to stop but he couldn't. Videl saw this and got and thought up an evil idea. She started to snuggle closer into his chest with her head and just laid there enjoying the torture she was giving him. Gohan felt videl moving a little and she just started to get closer to him and laid her head on his chest and gohan didn't know how red a person could get but he thinks he just broke the record.

Michael looks behind him and sees the two and smiles. `There a cute couple.' He looks forward again and sees the hideout and starts to descend. Gohan sees him descending and does the same thing and soon they touch to the ground. Gohan puts videl down and videl is laughing quietly to herself to see what gohan looks like.

"So how long have you two been going out?" Michael asked curious.

"What?" Both gohan and videl said they were both blushing hard to.

"We don't go out we just meet today." Videl said to him.

"Oh sorry I just assumed cause how close you two were and all." He was walking towards the cave when he said that and the others started to follow.

Videl mentally kicks herself for forgetting that he could of saw her do that. "It was nothing the wind was getting in my face that's all." She lied.

"Uh huh ok well here we are this is Guilmons hideout." He pointed to the cave. They all walk in to see that it was dug out some just recently but it was pretty big.

"This is were we are staying?" Videl asked a little concerned.

"Yeah why?" Michael looked at her confused.

"I won't be able to sleep on this floor what about keeping warm and stuff?" She was getting upset now she couldn't sleep in this without at least something to lie on.

"Who said that you would be sleeping on the bare floor?" He looked confused at her he knew what she meant but he just wanted to mess with her.

"No one I was just assuming that…"She was interrupted by michael.

"So you assumed I wouldn't think of this and just let you guys sleep on the floor how heartless do you think I am?" He looked like he was getting mad but he was trying to suppress his laughter. Gohan listening on the whole thing stepped in front of videl to guard her.

"I think that she didn't mean to upset you." Gohan was just glaring at him daring him to start anything. Videl just stared at gohan in disbelief he just stepped in to protect her no one has ever done that not even her own father did that.

Michael just busted out laughing gohan and videl just stared at him in confusion. "I am sorry I was just messing with her but it looks like I got a little ahead of my self." He looks at them and then gohan starts to laugh to videl who isn't the least bit amused steps out of the cave and walks over to a tree and sits.

Gohan over to see videl sit next to the tree and starts to feel stupid for laughing.

"I didn't mean to hurt her." Michael says. Gohan looks up at him and just shakes his head meaning that he believed him. "I have to get some stuff for you two to lay on I'll be back unless you want to come with me."

"No I better stay here and keep watch on videl." Gohan said in a calm voice. Michael nodded his head and took off. Gohan watched as michael took off and then he looked back at videl. Gohan sighed and slowly started to walk towards her.

"Videl I am sorry for laughing." Gohan whispered to her but she didn't say anything but stayed like that. Gohan thinking that she didn't hear him was about to say it again.

"I thought you were different from the others I had this impression you were but I guess I was wrong." Videl said quietly that it sounded like she had grief in her tone.

"What do you mean different?" Gohan sat next to her.

"I have been laughed at all my life people always saying that I can't be stronger then my dad and to leave the fighting to the men. When I train all people do was laugh at me and people even at the school call me names and stuff. My only two friends I had there was Erasa and Sharpner but they weren't close friends they laugh to sometimes but they did treat me well. Then I met you gohan something told me you would be different after the way you forgave me for being such a jerk to you when we first met but as I said I was wrong." She slowly but surely started to cry.

All gohan could do was just sit there and take it all in. He felt so ashamed for laughing. "Videl I am so sorry I didn't mean to laugh I mean I didn't want to make you feel like this towards me. I didn't know all this about you I am not what you think I am I am the same guy you first thought of."

"Why does everyone always have to laugh at me?" She was starting to cry a little harder. Gohan didn't have an answer yet but he just close to her and pulled her into a hug and the weird thing is she didn't pull away she just cried her heart out in his shirt. Gohan wasn't going to say anything yet he was just going to let her cry by the sounds of things it sounded like she has had this bottled up for a long time. Videl was starting to calm down a little until she finally stopped crying but she didn't remove herself from gohans embrace she felt warm and safe in his arms and she sighed a little feeling her eyes getting heavy until she finally fell asleep. Gohan just smiled and just let her sleep he didn't want to wake her so he didn't move.

"What are you doing?" Michael asked. Rika yelped and turned around.

"Damn you michael don't do that you want me to die young!" She yelled at him a little mad at him for doing that.

"Well if it's to get rid of that temper then maybe." He smiled at her and she just glared at him.

"Fine then if you feel like that I will just die right here then." She crossed her arms and turned around so he couldn't see her smile.

"It wouldn't be the same though if you were to just die right here who would I mess with then." He wrapped his arms around her waist and laid his head down on her shoulder and yawned.

"So you use me as your entertainment?" She didn't move and just smiled a little more.

"No not at the moment right now I am using you as a pillow." He chuckled at her.

She looked over at his face and laid her head back so it was leaning on his neck. "You tired?"

"Mmhmm how did you guess?" He smiled at her.

"Just looking at your eyelids beginning to droop some." She put her hand up to his hair and started to stroke it some.

"You wouldn't happen to have some extra blankets and pillows would you gohan and videl need them." He asked nudging his head into her neck some more.

"Yeah we have a lot we don't use you can grab as many as you need." She broke there embrace and already missing it lead him to a closet full of quilts and pillows. Michael went and grabbed some and put them in a pile in front of him.

"Well I better get going now I'll see you tomorrow ok." He picked them all up and was about to take off out of her window when rika grabbed him.

"Hey I didn't get to say goodbye." She hugged him and he just smiled and when she let go he took off. `What is coming over me we are just friends right?' Rika was confused and she wouldn't sleep tonight because of the thoughts she was having.

Michael returned with all the quilts and pillows for gohan and videl to lay on but he couldn't find them until he saw them at the tree. He quietly walked over to them and saw they both were asleep and still in each other's embrace. He smiled at the site and walked into the cave setting up there make shifts beds.

Gohan woke up realizing that he fell asleep he felt something on him and looked down to see videl still asleep on him. He just stared at her taking her features in studying her face. Her long hair in there pony tails still, `I think she would look better with shorter hair.'

"Finally you woke up." Michael whispered to him.

Gohan looked over to him, "well what can a person do."

"I made your both your beds so you can sleep in." Michael pointed to the cave.

"Thanks." Gohan carefully got up making sure he wouldn't wake videl and he slowly walked into the cave putting her down on the blanket and putting the quilt over her. Gohan heard her moan wondering what it was he just shrugged it off and left the cave to let her sleep. That moan that came from videl was her feeling that her warmth was disappearing.

"She must have been really tired." Michael said.

"Yeah." Gohan sighed.

"Is something up?" Michael sat in the tree above gohan was standing.

"Nah just thinking of all the stuff that has happened I can't belief this has happened I mean how did it happen and why Videl and I.?" Gohan had a lot of questions but all of them couldn't have been answered.

"Well I can't answer your questions but I can give you this. I have learned in life that sometimes the universe or for example our planet gives us a destiny to fulfill sometimes and well maybe this is some kind of destiny that our mother earth gave you and videl and even me probably." Michael said all this from his heart he didn't even have to think of what to say to him.

"You must have done some adventures in the past to say that." Gohan looked up at him with a smirk on his face.

"You can say that." Michael looked down at him and smirked as well.

"Well I better going to bed and I want to fight you tomorrow to see how strong you are." Gohan said walking into the cave.

"You can count on it." Michael said looking up at the stars.

(Next day)

Videl stirred in her bed and slowly open her eyes to see that she was in the cave. She frowned thinking that it was all a dream but part of her smiled remember what gohan did for her yesterday. He let her cry on him and that felt so good to let all that out. She looked around to see if she could spot the other two but she didn't so she got up and went out of the cave.

"Gohan are you here?" Videl yelled out.

"Right above you." Gohan was sitting in the same place that michael sat last night. "Sleep well?"

"Yes I did umm gohan thank you for yesterday." She got interested at the ground all of a sudden.

"No problem what are friends for if you ever need to talk I am always there to listen." He smiled at her and she looked back her and smiled to.

"Thanks." She looked back at the park it was a beautiful day. "Where is michael?"

"He said that he had to work." Videl just shook her head and sat on the ground leaning into the tree.

"Why did I agree into going to this stupid photo shoot?" Rika asked herself. She got bored on listening to her mom and her contractor talk so she decided to walk around a little bit to check the place out. Rika was wearing a white dress that went down past her knees and had a white hat that went with it. She came to some place in the building that looked like the storage area that had a lot crates and boxes around. Something flew past her that made her dress blow up so she quickly covered herself.

"What the heck was that." She looked around but something caught her eye she saw a blur it was moving the crates and boxes around. "Michael?"

Hearing his name he stopped what he was doing to see who called his name when he saw rika his jaw fell to the ground seeing her in a dress. "Rika what are you doing here?"

"I am here with my mom I am going to be doing this stupid photo shoot. What are you doing?"

"My job I needed one cause I needed to feed myself some how so they needed people to move heavy boxes so this was the perfect job for me." He should her lifting about four boxes with one hand.

"I see…are you going to watch me during the photo shoot?" She gave him an innocent smile.

"I wouldn't miss it for anything." He smiled at her. Rika smiled and waved at him and started to walk back at to the office. Rika and the her mother walked into the photo stage and just waited for the photographer to come and when he did rika got a little nervous all of a sudden.

"Well this must be rika you are just as pretty as your mom so let us get started." The photographer said. Michael walked in behind the cameras and rika saw him a smiled a little it michael gave her the thumbs up. Rika got into the stage and just stood there and waited for the photographer to start taking pictures.

"Can I get a smile please." Rika tried but failed but she then looked over to michael started to make faces at her and that got her to laugh a little but as soon as he took the picture and the lights flashed her smile went back to dull. Michael saw this and was wondering what was wrong. The photographer started to take the pictures faster and that the lights would keep on flashing faster. This reminded rika of lightening and she didn't like lightening.

She was becoming afraid of all the flashing lights and wanted it to stop now. Michael saw the look of fear in rikas eyes and knew what it was. "Stop it." Michael told the photographer but he didn't listen he kept on taking the pictures. "Stop it!" Michael said a little louder but still the photographer kept on taking them.

Michael looked over to rika and saw a tear roll down her face and that is when michael got pissed his eyes turned a deadly red. "I SAID STOP IT NOW!" He yelled and flew over to the photographer and picked him up by his collar making him scream. "Can't you tell that she wasn't enjoying it!" He was mad and wasn't going to hide it either he was torturing his friend with that stupid camera. He grabs the camera out of his hands and smashes it in pieces.

Rika looks at michael with shock she never knew he could have that kind of anger in him. Rika throws her hat down and runs out of the building. Michael sees this and looks at the photographer and growls at him and drops him to the ground. Rika is running still and doesn't feel like stopping but she doesn't feel herself on the ground anymore when she feel hands grab on to her and lift her up.

"Need a ride?" It was michael he looked at her and smiled.

"Thank you michael." She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned her head across his chest.

"You ok?" He was worried about her.

"I am now." She said.

"That guy was a jackass I wanted to beat him to a pulp but that would of not have gone over well with the authorities." Michael was joking around with the authorities part but it gave rika a small laugh. "I will take you home so you can get dressed." She just shook her head and just lay there in his arms head on chest.

Gohan and videl got bored just sitting there so they decided to walk around the park some. "This place is beautiful they don't have parks like these in our world." Videl said.

"Yeah but where I live I don't need a park I have a forest and mountains." Gohan said not really interested in the park. He was hungry I mean real hungry. They walked a little longer until gohan sensed that michael was coming and stopped.

"What's wrong?" Videl asked looking at gohan who was looking up at the sky.

"Michael is coming." When he said that he came into view with rika in his arms. Michael landed next to them greeting them.

"Hey guys what's up?" Michael asked.

"We got bored and decided to walk." Gohan said.

Rika and Videl stared at each other and michael and gohan noticed this. The girls walked up to each other and began to talk to each other.

"About yesterday I am sorry." Videl said.

"Me to." Rika replied back.

Rika and videl smiled. "So what is it like to sleep in the same place with them?" Rika asked.

Videl grinned at her question. "Well let me tell you this that cave won't smell the same because those don't know how to control themselves." Videl laughed a little.

"Hey!" Both guys said. Videl and Rika started to laugh seeing gohans and michaels faces.

"How about I take you to my house so you can clean up and get some new clothes." Rika offered videl.

"That's real nice of you rika I think I will it is better then staying with these barbarians." Videl laughed again.

"Hey!" The guys said again.

The girls left and left behind two confused guys. "What just happened?" Gohan asked.

"I don't know." Michael said. At the same time they said "Women."
