He powered down and up and down and up again five times and she cried when he powered down, but began smiling and clapping when he powered up.
'Oh gosh this is going to be a long night' he thought as he stayed in his Saiyan form knowing he was going to feel drained the next day.
Pan entered Trunks apartment slowly looking around. She was still going to kick his butt he was suppose to meet her at lunch two hours ago, then ignore her phone calls.
She saw him sleeping on his couch not even noticing the baby on him she snuck up behind the couch her mouth close to his ear.
"TRUNKS!" he bolted up almost dropping the baby, he looked up into the innocent and sweet smiling face of Pan. Boy was he going to kill her.
"Pan what the hell! You could have..." the rest of his sentence was halted as Funimiko began stirring crying out loud as their yelling woke her up.
Pan was confused as to why he had a baby in the house, while Trunks shot daggers at her quickly rocking the baby, but that didn't help and he went to warm up a bottle.
"Um... Trunks the last time I checked kidnapping a baby is a serious crime and believe you me I will testify against you in court whole heartedly" Pan said and Trunks rolled his eyes gently positioning the baby so that she was comfortable and he was able to feed her.
"Very, funny Pan, but this is my daughter" Silence answered him for a few seconds before Pan burst out into a fit of laughter. Maybe he should go into comedy and become the next Katt Williams, because tears were leaking out of her eyes right now.
When Pan noticed he wasn't laughing she sobered looking flushed. "Oh your serious?"
"Yeah, I got Marron pregnant" Pan made a face at that and shudder while asking the stupid queustion "How did that happen?" The Saiyan fought control not to throw the babies bottle at his friend.
"Gee, I don't know Pan. You see when a man and a women are in love and they both feel safe enough to past the just kissing, and touching stage the guy with a very big drum. He smirked. Puts his drum in the..
"Okay! You sick pervert I get the picture unfortunately" Pan said shuddering again "And I'm sure the guy has a very small drum" she said taking the smirk right off his face and he mummbled "I hate you" under his breath.
Silence followed for a few minutes with only the sound of the baby sucking her bottle, her little fist clenched near the bottle, but not holding it, with her eyes closed. Pan felt the old feelings for wanting a child come back again and she inwardly sighed.
"Why are you here anyway?" Trunks asked his eyes still on his daughter.
"A certain person was suppose to meet me for lunch, yet didn't come and didn't even think to call me to tell me they couldn't make it so I've come to take revenge"
Trunks mouth shaped an "O" as he remembered he was suppose to meet her, but wanted to find some way to make it up to his friend.
"Would you still want to take revenge if that certain person apologize profoundly, and promises to make it up to you?" he said with a hopeful smile and Pan pretended to think about it for a second.
"Yeah only if it involves lots of ice cream and a chance to hold you adorable daughter" she said and he smiled while nodding his head in a yes.
Trunks handed Funimiko to Pan thinking he had to help her since he'd just learned yesterday how to hold her without dropping her, but to his suprise Pan didn't have a problem perfectly holding the baby and the bottle. In fact it seemed natural in some way, but Pan felt her longing come back ten fold when Funimikos' eyes opened looking at her.
"Hi Miko" Pan said creating a nickname already for the baby and the baby gave her a slight smile.
"I'm guessing she likes you" Trunks said and felt an unknown feeling watching them together 'Pan would make a great... Okay I'm losing it'
Miko's father so deep in thought barely heard Pan talking to him.
"Trunks? Hello?" she said making a snapping sound with her fingers and he came back to his senses.
"Huh?" Pan rolled her eyes
"I asked when did you guys have a baby, because I don't remember you saying anything about having a baby or planning to have one?"
The silver haired man sighed running a hand through his hair "I would like to know the same, but apparently Marron knows how to keep secrets and didn't tell me until yesterday. Then again I'm not sure if her placing her in my arms, telling me that's my daughter and quickly running off is a polite way to tell someone"
"No it isn't it's a hell of a funny way to do it" Pan said trying to make a smile show on his face, but that didn't quite happen.
'Ok Panny savw jokes for later' she thought. "Well, if it's any comfort to you Miko is too beautiful to be either one of you guys child" Pan said not completely meaning to make a joke, but a slight smile graced Trunks' features and she couldn't be any happier.
A yawn came from Funimiko's mouth and they both looked down to see she had finished her food. Trunks went to the sink taking her bottle with him to rinse it out, then went to take Miko and lay her down back on the couch.
"Trunks!" Pan yelled and he jumped a little not understanding what was wrong with her.
"What?"
"I know your not going to just lay her down after she finished eating"
"Uh... yeah" Pan looked at him with disgust quickly snatching the baby up from the couch.
"I think I should call Child Protective Services on your behind" she was still glaring daggers at the confused man.
"Where's her bag?" Trunks pointed to it and she rummage through it to find a semi-long cloth and used her finger to tell Trunks to come towards her.
He went forward still confused even as she placed the cloth on his shoulder then gave him the baby.
Pan helped him manuver the small child one hand under her butt as her head rested on his shoulder comfortably.
"You do know how to berp a baby right?" All she got was a blank stare. "Trunks didn't you pay attention when your mom had Bra?"
"Of course not!" he said and she shook her head in dismay, boy was he not ready for fatherhood.
"Okay take your free hand and place it on her back" Pan instructed while Trunks did as he was told.
"Now some people softly pat the babies back and some people make slow circles on the babies back, but what my dad used on me was the soft patting so try that"
Trunks felt his daughter nestle more into the cloth as he softly patted her back despite feeling weird just standing and doing that.
"You can walk around if you want" Trunks walked around a bit getting the hang of it and he didn't see Pan looking at him finding both of them irresistibly cute.
Within minutes a loud berp was heard and Trunks smiled "You are definitly mines" and Pan shook her head typical of a him.
Pan followed Trunks into his room to put the sleeping baby on his bed. "She needs a crib" Pan stated.
"Yeah I know, but I at least have to wait a week until I get paycheck to get one"
"My dad still has my old one so I could get it for you"
Trunks' thumb stroked Funimiko's forehead "Sorry, but no hand-me-downs I want my princess to have the real thing"
Behind him Pan smiled at how easy he seem to be getting into the father role.
"Don't think of it like that Trunks It'll only be until you get the new one and I kind of need to find a way for my dad to stop showing me that crib everytime I come over. Talking about how he wonders if I can still fit into it. Do you know how creepy that is?"
The young man chuckled. "No, but I can imagine" she snorted at his laughter.
They went into the livingroom where Trunks told her the entire theme of yesterday and Pan couldn't help, but laugh at certain parts.
Trunks laid his head against the couch closing his eyes before opening them and that's when Pan saw the fear and doubt he had in his eyes and she felt heart go out to him.
"Pan I'm scared out of my mind I mean just months ago I was a single guy that just got out of a serious relationship, a guy with a great job, a guy that the thought of having children right now did not even cross my mind. And learned that just yesterday I'm a father and then knowing how my dad was to me. Pan I'm scared what if I fail her like Vegeta failed me? What if I show her love by being an ass the way my dad was to me? Pan what if I just can't handle it and see that I'm more like my dad then I want to be? Then I'm doing this on my own I just... I just don't know"
Pan stared at her best friend and was suprised at how he spilled his guts, because one thing Trunks had adopted from his father was hiding his emotions even when it was only her and him. She knew Trunks' fears are similar to those around the world, but she knew he would be an excellent dad, and he wouldn't be alone, because he had her.
Trunks had closed his eyes after his saying his piece, yet opened it again when he felt Pan place his hand in hers, while their eyes locked.
"Trunks you don't have to worry about a thing, because your going to be a great dad nothing like Vegeta, but don't think I don't understand your fears, because I do, but I promise you, you'll do fine. As for the being alone part your not, because I'm going to be right there with you the rest of the way, because that's what friends are for you idiot" Pan added so her voice wouldn't crack under the lump in her throat.
Her response was a low chuckle and him bringing her in his arms, while her head rested on his chest.
"Thanks Pan"
"Hey like I said what are friends for?" she said while burying her face deeper into his scent.
When Trunks was sure Pan was asleep he pressed a kiss to her forehead answering her question.
"I don't know, but I do know your the bestest friend a person can have"
