Pairings: Pan and Trunks, Goten and Marron, and Bra and Uub.

Three weeks before the senior ball.

"Hey Pan wait up." Pan turned around to see her seventeen- year-old best friend running up behind her. The girl caught up to Pan and stopped she bent over grabbed her knees to catch her breath. "You could have slowed down for me you know."

"Sorry B. I just was thinking." Bra Briefs looked at her friend Pan Son. She thought it was peculiar that Pan was thinking, Pan was not one to ponder over things.

"About?" Bra raised her left brow.

"About this years senior Ball." Pan said lacking enthusiasm about going. "I don't want to go Bra. However because of one stupid school rule that was set three years ago. All seniors must attend one school event or risk not attending graduation with the rest of the senior class."

"So don't go. It's not like you want to attend graduation anyways." Bra suggested. She knew Pan was not one for big gatherings. The only reason she went to the Capsule Events is that Trunks Briefs, Bra's older brother was attending.

"You don't understand Bra. Father has invited everyone to my graduation, not to mention old friends from my grandfathers past. This is a huge event."

"Then go to the senior Ball."

"I don't have a date." Pan said forgetting about who her boyfriend was.

Bra looked at her friend shocked. "Uh Pan? Have you forgotten who've you been dating for the last two years?"

"No, but I can't go with Trunks that would be just wrong. Besides no one knows we are even together." Pan looked around to make sure no one was watching.

Bra started to laugh a little. "Well maybe this is the time for you guys to make it official, to start dating in Public. Pan you are eighteen now."

"I know but what if Trunks doesn't want to be together in public with me. What if he finds me to be too ugly to be shown off as his girlfriend?" Pan started rambling as she began to feel insecure about her looks.

Bra looked at her friend. "Pan you do know that Trunks loves you for you and does not care what you look like. You do remember the day he did ask you out."

Pan nodded her head. "I had the mumps. I looked like a chipmunk who was storing his food for the winter." Pan remembered.

Flashback.

Pan had been in bed for most of the day. She had come down with the mumps and refused to see anyone. However, one lavender haired male saiyan was adamant about seeing her.

"Why can't I see Pan? I really need to ask her something. It won't take long." Trunks asked. Trunks Briefs wanted to tell Pan how he felt about her. He also wanted to know if she would try her hand at a relationship with him.

Pan had heard the commotion and decided to check it out. When she saw Trunks staring back at her. She ran back into the room. Pan sat and cried, as she now knew that the one man she loved could never love her.

However, she had been wrong. Pan turned and saw the doorknob of her door turning. "Oh great, he's probably in need of good laugh." She tried to hide under her covers.

"Pan Chan?" Trunks asked. He looked for her and finally found her tucked beneath the covers. He walked over to her bed. "Pan Chan?"

"Go away?" She said in a very quiet voice. Trunks could not help but chuckle a little. Pan closed her eyes. 'I knew it all he wanted was a good laugh.'


"Pan is you going to come out of there anytime soon? I need to talk to you." Trunks tried hard for Pan to come out from beneath her bedding.

"No! Go away; I do not want you to see me like this. All you'll do is laugh." Pan told him she was embarrassed at what she looked like.

"Panny Chan. I promise I won't laugh." He leaned down and tried to pull the covers off her of her. However she held a firm grip on them. "Pan Chan please. I promise I won't laugh at you. Just let me talk to you." He tried to pull the covers off her again.

"No, tell me where you are. I don't want you to see how ugly I am." Pan said insecurely about how Trunks would look at her. Trunks however chuckled a bit.


"Pan if you think that I'm going to laugh at you. Then you don't know me at all." Pan came out from beneath the covers as she tried to hide her swollen face. Trunks quietly walked over to her. He grabbed her chin and turned her face towards him. "Pan look at me."

"No! I do not want you to see me Trunks. Not like this I look so ugly." Pan put her self down.

"No you don't."


Pan turned to look at him. "Oh no. Then why do I look like a chipmunk. Trunks I look like a chipmunk." She lowered her head. He lifted it up.

"Yeah but a real cute Chipmunk." He then did something Pan had never expected. He kissed her. It was not a long or passionate kiss. However, it was a still a kiss though. Trunks pulled back and smiled.

"Trunks? Why did you kiss me?" Pan said as she blushed a little.

"I wanted to. I wanted to kiss the one girl I love."

"Love? You love me?" Pan was shocked at Trunks revelation.

Trunks nodded. "Yeah I love you."


"You can't what about my father. What about your father." Pan knew neither Gohan nor Vegeta would approve of a bond.

"We'll figure something out. All I know is I love you Pan and I want to be with you." Trunks pulled her closer to him.

Pan smiled as she laid her head on his chest. She liked being in his arms.

End of flashback.


Pan smiled as she remembered that day. She loved Trunks. She knew he loved her. However she had always felt she was not pretty enough for him.

"Hey Pan don't worry about it too much, just know that Trunks is crazy for you." Bra explained to her friend.

"I know Bra. I know." Pan said smiling. She then looked up to see him.

"Hey! Baby. What's up?" He said slyly.

"Prom." She said inadvertently.

Trunks looked at her with a confused expression. "Huh?"

"My senior ball is coming up, and I don't want to go. However the school is forcing me to attend or else I will not graduate."

Trunks smiled. "Then why don't you go then. What don't have a date Son?" he loved joking with her.

"Trunks." Pan hated it when he joked with her.

"Sorry Pan. Tell you what. I will be more then glad to take you to your senior ball."

"I don't know Trunks." Pan was not so sure if she was ready for Trunks and her to go public just yet. She was afraid of what others may think. She was surprised she was insecure. She had never felt that way.

"Pan I'm not embarrassed about taking you out in public if that's what is bothering you." Trunks told her as he pulled her into an embrace. Pan snuggled into his chest as he held her head close.

"I know. I just don't want you to feel like you have to show me off to everyone."

Trunks turned her around and stared into her eyes. "Pan I love you. I loved you for the last two years, no make that three years. I want to show the world the beautiful girl...no woman who has stolen my heart."

"Really Trunks? Do you honestly want to show me off at my senior ball?" Pan tried to laugh. Trunks chuckled a bit.

"Pan you sound like you are some object I'm showing at a show. Pan I love you, and I plan to show you to everyone. In fact aren't you showing off the fact that you are with me?" He pulled her in and kissed her passionately on the lips.

Pan giggled. "Maybe." She returned the kiss.

"So tell when this senior ball is?" Pan smiled she could not believe that Trunks wanted to take her.

"Friday May 21." She smiled. "Do you think Bra can help with my dress and everything, I'm totally clueless when it comes to girl stuff?" Pan explained. It was true. Sadly, Pan Son never wore anything that looked remotely feminine or even tried her hand at makeup. She never even bothered fixing her hair. I had always been hidden under her orange bandana or a baseball cap.

"You know Bra would jump at the chance to make you pretty. Not that you aren't already pretty."

Pan tried to hide her blush. "I'm not pretty. You're just saying that because you have to."

Trunks smiled. "Pan you have a natural beauty any man would love to date you."

"I don't. I doubt I'll even look good in dress."

Trunks chuckled again. "Pan you could where a burlap sack, goulashes and an Ice bucket for a hat and you'd still look beautiful."

Pan lightly slugged him in the shoulder and laughed. "You are just saying that because I'm your girlfriend. You are supposed to say that."

"Ow." Trunks said playfully as he held his shoulder. "It's the truth, you are beautiful. In fact I don't know any other woman who is as beautiful as you are."

"Trunks you don't have to be so nice to me. I know you don't want to take me out in public so you don't have to bother taking me to my prom, I'll just explain to mom and dad that I won't be graduating with my class." Pan said as she took off.

Trunks sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair. "Pan I love you for you, I don't give a damn what you look like." Trunks said silently.

He got out his cell phone and dialed his sister's number. "Hello." Bra answered.

"Bra I need some help."

" With what?" Bra loved it when Trunks needed her help. "Is this about Pan?"

"How did she become all the sudden insecure about the way she looks." Trunks asked.

"Well I don't know, we were talking about the ball and she all the sudden started feeling insecure about you not wanting to tell people you guys are together. She thought you would not want to show someone as ugly and disgusting as your girlfriend. I then tried to get her to remember when you told her you loved her."

Trunks laughed a bit. "She had the mumps. She looked so cute. I knew right then she was the one. The one I wanted to spend eternity with. Uhm Bra can we meet somewhere?"

"Yeah sure I'll meet you at Starbucks™ by Capsule."

"Alright." Trunks said as him and Bra hung up with each other. He headed to the Starbucks™.

Trunks entered the building. He saw Bra sitting on the sofa drinking a cup of coffee. "Can I get you anything?" An employee asked.

"I'll have a regular coffee." Trunks answered. He went over to Bra.

"Trunks. What did you want to discuss with me." Bra asked.

"Can you get Pan to attend the Senior Ball with me?" Trunks asked.

Bra smiled. "Of course I can bro. I can get Pan to attend."

"Great. Because there is something I plan on doing that night."

Bra looked at Trunks. "Trunks you aren't planning on seducing her are you?" Bra looked at her brother. "Oh my god! You're going to take her virginity aren't you?"

"No, I'm not." He then reached into his pocket of his trousers and pulled out a box. He opened it up to show Bra a diamond solitaire. "I'm going to ask her to marry me."

Bra's eyes went wide as she grabbed the box. "You want to marry her?"

Trunks smiled. "Yeah Bra I do. I love her. I never thought I would love someone so much."

"Congratulations Trunks. Leave Everything to me. I will get Pan to that Ball if it's the last thing I do." Bra smiled at her brother. She was happy. Her best friend is going to become her sister-in-law.

"Don't you dare say anything to her either?" Trunks commanded.

"I won't. Do not worry. Oh Trunks I'm so happy for you." Bra smiled giving her brother a hug and leaving the restaurant.

Pan sat in her room trying to find away to get over Trunks. She knew he did not want to be with her. There were much prettier girls out there then her. If anyone saw The President of Capsule Corp with such an ugly woman they would laugh at him. She could be his downfall.

"I will get over him. Even if my whole world revolves around him. I will get over him. He is far better off without me. I'm pretty sure he would want someone like Marron or some blonde like her." Pan said trying to convince her that Trunks would be far better off with a girl like Marron or another blonde-haired woman.

Pan went over to her full-length mirror and stared at her. "Trunks would rather have a girl who can be a trophy wife."

Pan sighed as she thought she could be losing Trunks, the only man she would or could ever love. "Oh Trunks."

She became lost in thought that she did not hear the knock on the door. The knocking became persistent that Pan was knocked back into reality. "Yeah Come in."

"Hey Pan what took you so long to answer, I was out there for five minutes." Bra wondered.

"Sorry B, I was lost in thought."

"About Trunks?" Bra asked.

"He's going to break up with me, I know he is." Pan sunk down into her bed. She looked up at Bra. Bra could see the tears in Pan's eyes.

"Oh Pan, Trunks isn't going to break up with you. You need to stop being so insecure."

"That's easy for you to say, you're beautiful." Pan said a little chokingly.

"Trunks think you are beautiful and so do I." Bra tried to make her best friend feel better however; I was proving to be difficult.

"How can Trunks love a girl like me? How can he love a girl who is so ugly?" Pan would not stop putting herself down. She thought Trunks saw her as Ugly so she thought she was ugly."

Bra grabbed hold of her shoulders and shook her into reality. "Pan You isn't ugly. Trunks don't see you as ugly so you shouldn't either."

Pan sighed. "I just don't know what to do Bra, I really feel like he's going to break it off with me."

"Pan goes to the Senior Ball with him, have fun. You just might be surprised.

Author Notes: Will Pan go to the Ball with Trunks? Will her insecurities ever vanish?

Note: When I began typing, it up it was meant to be a one-shot however, I felt like turning it into a chapter story. It will not be a long chaptered stories though probably only five-ten chapters.
