Chapter Six

Why Gohan Should Avoid Small Children and Beds.



Videl smirked. She had caught Gohan off guard yesterday. He had looked so cute standing there with his mouth open.

In fact, so cute, she had wanted to run back and shove her toungue in.

'But enough about yesterday.' She thought. 'Let's look forward to today!'

Vegeta's plan depended way to much on if his assumption's about Gohan's instincts were correct, but Bulma seemed to think that it might work.

Videl would try it. Let's see if Gohan's inherited 'mother' skills would trap him into his own demise--err, lifetime of being with Videl...*cough*

"Gohan, doll, you and Videl are going to be taking care of Trunks and Goten today!"

"Wha--?! Mom, no! How could you do that to Videl?! How could you do that to ME?! Both of them at once?!"

"Well there are TWO of you." Chi Chi said, exasperated.

"You're going to make me lose my best friend!"

"Why do you say that Gohan?" Chi Chi was facinated by the way he appeared to be tearing out his hair.

"She's going to run screaming out of the house!" Gohan was faintly sobbing. "You just don't understand how hard it is..."

"Oh yeah, about that...You can't come back into the house until 10 pm tonight. So you'll have to take the boys somewhere else."

"Anything else I need to know before I begin my last day on earth?"

"Videl will be spending the night."

"NO!" Gohan appeared to lose his coloring, and was now a faintly white color. After a few seconds he started to go blue, so Chi Chi hit her son's back.

"Breathe, son, breathe!" Choking and gagging, he did so.

"Mom, Videl spending the night is not such a good idea."

"Why not? Is there more going on here than you've told me about?"

"NO! NO! It's just, aren't you worried about a girl spending the night?"

"Videl is your best friend! Plus, Goten and Trunks will be here..."

Gohan sighed, resigned now to his fate. It was going to be a long day and night. "Alriiiiiight."

Videl found herself arriving at the same time Trunks did. Gohan walked out of the house slowly with Goten, looking as if the apocolypse was near.

"What's wrong, Gohan? You look like death." Videl said teasingly.

"You've never babysat for the two terrors before."

"The two terrors?" Videl asked, wondering why they were called that.

"Yep. Everyone calls them that. Apart, they're two nice kids, but together...Welcome to hell."

"Oh my."

The day was peaceful enough. It started out with swimming at a large lake about a mile away from Gohan's house. The walk itself was enjoyable, with gentle breeze and rolling hills.

Gohan knew it couldn't last. It was an inborn fear of doom that seemed to always come true...Just like his headache= evil plot sensor.

Swimming had been fun, he admitted. And Videl sure had looked nice in her black two-piece swimsuit...

Gohan slapped his head against his hand as the other three walked ahead of him, skipping madly. 'I can't think of my best friend like that! Arrrrg!'

As he caught up with the others, he noticed Videl talking to Trunks about a particular plant and it's uses.

'She sure is great with kids..' Gohan slapped himself repeatedly.

Videl looked up at him. "Are you...okay, Gohan?" She asked, in a tone that conveyed her true question of 'Have you gone insane, Gohan?'

"Yeah...Ahahahahahahaha...Just fine..." He said, with a familiar goofy grin.

"Oooooohkay."

Gohan sighed. 'Life sucks.'

The calm couldn't last, that he knew.

And as day turned into night, the feeling that something predatory was creeping up on him increased.

Gohan suddenly didn't feel so good.

In fact, he felt very, very, afraid.


***


Gohan's mother left a note.

"You and Videl will sleep in your room. I laid the futon out. Goten and Trunks will sleep in Goten's room. My room is OFF LIMITS.

Love, Mom"

Videl smirked. 'Everything's going according to plan...'

Bulma Briefs and Vegeta sat in the livingroom of Bulma's Capsule Corp home as Chi Chi told them of how well everything was progressing.

Vegeta smirked. "It will work. In Gohan's increased state of awareness caused by the change in his hormones, he should be more responsive to Videl's 'attacks'.

Bulma frowned a bit. "You aren't figuring in Gohan's incredible amount of self control."

Chi Chi sighed. "Well, Good Luck Videl is all I can really say..."


***



Everyone had settled in nicely, and Gohan(after a 5 minute argument) finally convinced Videl to take the bed.

"Are you sure you'll be comfortable?" Videl asked.

"Yes, Videl, it's fine." Gohan replied from his prone position on the futon.

They turned out the lights and Gohan was just starting to drift off when...

"Gohan?" Goten's sleepy voice knocked on the door.

"Yes Goten?" Videl answered, and Gohan looked up to find her still awake.

Goten opened the door, and a thin sliver of light creeped into the room. "I'm really scared...Can I sleep in here with you guys?"

"Sure, Goten." Videl answered. "Why don't you sleep up here with me?"

"Okay..." He crossed the bedroom and climbed into bed with Videl. All was silent for a few minutes, until Goten started whimpering.

"What's wrong, Goten?" Gohan asked, slightly confused.

"It doesn't feel right."

"What doesn't?"

"I like sleeping with Videl, but it doesn't feel right without Gohan here too. Can we all sleep together?"

Gohan choked.
