Author's Note: A little story I wrote when I was bored. I may consider expanding on this story if you guys want me to. So if you like it and want me to make more chapters then please say so. I hope you enjoy.
"Does anyone have any objection as to why these two should not be married?" Asked the priest.
No one said anything, but there was one person who wanted to say something. Pan stood in the back of the church. Her heart wanted to shout out and stop this from happening. Her mind however told her to stay silent. She sighed and didn't say a word. If this is what he wanted, then she had to let him have what he chose. She loved him and she couldn't force him to change his feelings about his bride.
It was Trunk's wedding. He was marrying a girl he had been dating for a year now. At first Pan thought their relationship would amount to nothing. She didn't know how wrong she was. Now he was here marrying this girl. It was breaking Pan's heart. She loved Trunks. She wanted to be with Trunks. Maybe she should have told Trunks sooner. Then maybe she would be the one up there wearing the white dress.
"I do…" She heard Trunks say. Lost in her thoughts, she didn't notice they were already at the vows. With Trunk's commitment the priest confirmed, "I now pronounce you man and wife. You may now kiss the bride." She saw Trunks leaning in to kiss the girl. Tears formed in her eyes. She sneaked out of the sanctuary. Her heart couldn't handle seeing him kiss another girl.
Pan thought she had sneaked away unnoticed. She was not aware that Goku had saw her. He was sitting in the front. Looking at his wife Goku asked to be excused. He told Chi Chi he had to check on something.
Quietly he left the room and followed Pan's ki to a closet. Knocking on the door he asked, "Pan? Sweet heart is something wrong?"
"No…grandpa…it's nothing." He hear her reply. In her voice he heard her crying and knew that something was wrong.
Opening the closet he looked to see his granddaughter with her knees huddled up to her, crying her eyes out. He crawled in next to her and closed the door. Thank goodness that he had been turned back into a child by Black Star Shenron or else he would have never fit in here. Using a small ball of ki Goku lit the room.
He stroked Pan's tear covered face and asked compassionately, "It's alright Pan. You can tell me anything. You know that."
She rested her head on Goku's chest. Even though he was a child now, she still felt safe with him. "Grandpa…I love Trunks…"
Goku was a bit taken back by her confession. "O…okay…" He remarked.
"Oh come on grandpa can't you figure it out yet? I hate seeing Trunks getting married to some other girl! It's breaking my heart!" She buried her face in his chest and let the tears flow.
Goku wrapped his arms around her and placed his nose on the top of her head. "I'm sorry Pan…I was never any good at understanding romantic stuff….but I do know how I would feel if I had to watch Chi Chi marry someone else…." Goku stroked her hair. "I'm sorry Pan….I'm sorry you're hurting…"
Pan started to confess her feelings to him, "I'm part saiyan….it's so hard for me to date someone long enough to fall in love. When I hug someone….I have to keep my power back just so I don't break their spine…when I show them how good I am at fighting they get freaked out." Pan took a hold of Goku's arm and cuddled it up to her chest. "I thought since Trunks was part saiyan too…maybe I could be myself and love him without hurting him…."
"Pan…I'm so sorry…I had no idea you felt this way…" Tears started to drip from Goku's eyes now too.
Looking up and seeing Goku cry, Pan couldn't help but try to rub the tears away from his face. "Please don't cry grandpa…I'm sorry it's alright…really it is."
"No it's not…my grand baby is hurting…please tell me what I can do to make it better. Anything at all Pan. Just name it." He meant it too. He would do anything for her.
Trying to think of what to say to him, Pan thought back to the adventures they shared searching for the black star dragon balls. Then without thinking she said, "Kiss me…"
"W.. what?" Goku asked surprised.
"Please grandpa…just for a moment…don't be my grandpa…be someone who can love me the way I want to be loved…" She asked, knowing that Goku probably thought she was terrible for asking such a thing.
To her surprise he answered, "Okay…" Looking into each other's eyes, they saw one another not as family but as lovers. Even if it was for a moment. Leaning in they felt their lips touch. The sensation flowed through out their bodies. Going further she slid her tongue into his mouth and then he followed.
What seemed like an hour passed but was only minutes and they broke their kiss. Neither spoke a word and she rested in his embrace as a lover. He held her close and together they fell asleep.
It was only a few minutes later and they awoke to the sound of music. The reception had started. Looking at each other, Pan smiled and whispered, "Thank you…" They shared one last kiss together. "Anything for my Pan…" He whispered back to her.
They stepped out of the closet and rejoined their family and friends in the dinning hall of the church. Pan didn't focus on Trunks or his bride. She only thought of the gift that Goku had given her. The gift to feel what it was like to be loved. Chi Chi was yelling at Goku, asking him why he was late. Goku blocked it out as he too thought about his experience with Pan.
Maybe what had happened was only going to be a moment of time kept in their memories. It could develop into more one day but for now it was only a moment. A moment that both Pan and Goku would treasure always.
