"Part One"
* The Son's House *

A loud knock coming from the door sounded throughout the house as Videl scrambled to answer it.

"Coming!" yelled Videl.

"Oh! Hello Trunks. Are you here to see Pan?" asked Videl.

"Umm, yeah." said Trunks with a blush.

"Well, she's in her room. You can go upstairs, if you want." said Videl smiling at Trunks as she let the young boy in.

"Thanks." said Trunks, dashing upstairs to Pan's room.

* Pan's Room *

"That's a dress, Grandma." Pan said fearfully as she looked desperately for a way to escape.

"Panny dear, of course it's a dress! You're going to wear this for Bulma's party tonight." said Chichi, giving the five year-old a look that could kill.

"But... but..."

"But nothing. This is what you're going to wear, whether you like it or not, so try it on now!" demanded Chichi.

"Fine!" yelled Pan, storming into the bathroom.

Chichi thought she was imagining things when she heard a knock at the door. It was so quiet and shy, it could barely be heard.

"Come in." said Chichi, wondering if there was actually someone on the other side.

"Oh, hello Trunks. Pan's in the bathroom trying on her dress."

"Dress!? Pan!?" asked a shocked six year-old.

"Yes, Pan in a dress. What is it with dresses?"

"Umm, there's nothing wrong with dresses, but this is Pan!" said Trunks, looking strangely at the older woman.

"Hehe, yes this is Pan, but you can't forget she is a girl and girls need to wear dresses. Plus, I'm not going to let her leave this house wearing those suits that Goku wears."

"Umm, well, can I stay to see the dress?"

"Of course, but first we have to get her out of the bathroom!" said Chichi, screaming at Pan to get out.

"Pan get out here now!"

"No!"

"Pan... get... out... here... now...!"

At that moment, Pan walked out wearing a white dress with roses printed at the bottom. She looked very pretty.

"Wow!" exclaimed Chichi.

"Trunks!" yelled Pan, surprised with his presence.

"Umm, hey Pan! You look pretty." said Trunks, while trying to hide the blush on his face.

"You look great Pan. I told you." said Chichi, looking up and down, examining her granddaughter.

"Pan, take off that bandanna. It doesn't match with the dress."

"What!? But Grandma...!" yelled Pan, giving her grandmother a desperate look.

"Fine. Go change and play" said Chichi, walking out the door.

"Well, I'll wait for you downstairs." said Trunks, walking out of the room.

"Okay."

* Downstairs *

"So, did you get her to wear the dress?" asked Gohan, looking at his mother coming down the stairs.

"Yes, but it took long enough. She did as she was told though." said Chichi as she walked towards the kitchen.

"Hello Gohan!" said Trunks, seeing the older man sitting on his recliner.

"Oh, hi Trunks. I didn't know you were here."

"Yeah, I came to pick up Pan so we could go spar at home."

"That's good. Did you see her in the dress?" asked Gohan, looking at the boy whose face had just gone red.

"Umm, yes sir! She looked pretty."

"Oh really? So, do you like Pan?"

"Umm..."

"Daddy!" greeted Pan, coming down the stairs and running to her father.

"Good morning honey. I see you and Trunks are going to spar today."

"Yeah! Is Uncle around?"

"I think he's in the kitchen, eating."

"That's him alright." said Trunks leaving, the two and heading towards the kitchen.

"Well, I'm going to go now. See you later." said Pan, giving her father a kiss on the cheek and dashing to the kitchen.

* In the Kitchen *

"Come on." Trunks pleaded with his other best friend.

"Not until I'm done eating." said Goten, quickly eating the breakfast his mother made.

"Uncle? Uncle...? There you are! Lets go. We have only a few hours to spar until we have to go to that stupid party." said Pan.

"But...!"

"Come on. You can eat it on the way." said Trunks.

"Yeah! Come on, let's go!" yelled Pan, pushing her Uncle to hurry up.

"Fine, but you two owe me big time."

"Yeah, whatever." said Trunks, walking towards the kitchen door.

"Bye everybody!" yelled Pan as she followed Trunks.

"Bye!" yelled Goten with his mouth full.

So our three little warriors were off to train. Can't you see the love in the air? Well, this is going to be another long story. It will be all romance about our two favorite couples. I hope you like it so far. Please review. I can't wait until the party. Can you picture Trunks and Pan dancing together? So sweet!
