Videl was taking her now derange husband to bed when the doorbell rang. "Sweetie can you get that," said Videl. "Yes ma'am," said Pan.
Pan open the door and was greeted by Goten. "Hey Panny. Can I come in," asked Goten. "Well of course, but try not to make too much noise. Alec should be taking a nap. How did you find out where we live," asked Pan.
Goten walked in and follow her to the living room. They sat down. "Well your address is in the school system, so it's easier to find you now," said Goten. Pan smiled, "Yeah you're right. So what brings you here," asked Pan.
Goten took a deep breath, "Pan...I know who is the father. I'm not that dense as everyone thinks. At first I thought he got his blue eyes from your mom side, but when I saw Trunks and Alec together; I knew he is Alec's father. Another thing Alec is three years old. I saw you three years ago, and the three of us went to a party. I lost you, and I never saw you again. If we never have came you would of never got pregnant,".
Pan was trying to hold back her tears. " I may have hated myself for going to that party, but I don't regret having him. I created the light of my life. You have no idea how much it hurts seeing Trunks in my son. How much I love Trunks, and the fact that he has no idea what we made together. I still love him,".
"Imagine Alec would inherit his lavender hair. It would be a dead giveaway. But you have to tell him the truth," said Goten. "I'll tell him when the time is right," said Pan.
Goten stood up, "Bullshit. When is it going to happen? When Alec is 18? That's my best friend, and he deserve to know," he said angrily. Pan stood up too, "Quiet down would you. Why can't you just let me be happy. I finally get my wish,".
"What will hurt you more. Breaking up with you on your first date, because he found out, or after a year of dating him, so you told him the truth, and poof he's gone," said Goten walking to the door.
"Wait...since you're here. Do you want to see his baby photos," asked Pan. Goten smile, "Sure, and I have to ask. Why Alec?," asked Goten. Pan walked to a dresser, and pull out an album out of the draws. "I was reading a book full of boy's name, and when I came across the name Alec, and I just fell in love with it," said Pan.
She hand him the album, and he look at each page carefully. "You know mom has been taking videos of me during the whole pregnancy. After the birth, when he came home, his first step, his first word, and when he became potty trained," she said looking over the photos with Goten.
"Why did she do that," he asked. "Well she told me that just in case I found his father, and he can see what he has missed," she said. "Well if you tell him now he might be never miss any moment of his life," he said.
Pan sighed, "Look Goten you need to let it go. This is not your decision to make. He's my son, and I decide what is best for him,". Goten was about to response back, but saw Alec walking down the stairs. "Hey buddy,".
Pan turned around and saw her son. "Hey baby how did you sleep,". "Daddy?" said Alec rubbing his eye. "No. It's not your daddy. Just your uncle. Well Panny I got to go. Is it alright to tell mom that she's a great grandma now," asked Goten.
Pan nodded, "It's fine. It's not really a secret anymore that I have a beautiful son. If anything she will pass the news along to Bulma, and it'll be a chainreaction,". "Be sure to tell Videl and Gohan bye. Bye Panny. Bye Alec," said Goten walking out the door.
Videl came back down. "I think dinner should be done about now," said Videl. "How's dad," said Pan. "Oh he's fine now. Just need to nap for a bit. He should be coming down soon," said Videl.
Pan got Alec into his sit and set up the table. "Smells yummy grampa," said Alec. "As Videl set down the food Gohan is walking down the stairs. "No one needs to worry about me. I'm fine. I just needed time to process the idea of Pan and Trunks equals Alec," said Gohan.
"How was I made," asked Alec. "OH you don't need to know that until you're waayyyy older," said Pan. Alec ignored his mom as he stuff his face. "Aww look at you baby. You're a mess," said Pan.
"Mommy I'm thirsty. Can I have some milk," said Alec. Pan nooded. She got up and got him a small cup of milk, and handed it to him. "Big and strong like Trunks,".
"Just like daddy," said Alec as he slips his cup. Videl and Gohan looks like him in shock.
"Wow seems like he's a better influence than the three of us," said Videl. "I was surprised too. Behind all that facade he shows he is the Trunks I fell in love with," said Pan.
After about half a hour Alec fell asleep next to his plate. "Well I'll clean up his face, and then put him in his room. We'll talk about why my brother was here," said Gohan picking up the boy to clean his face.
Gohan walked upstairs to Alec's bedroom. The little boy loves his dragons with his dragon wallpaper, stuffed dragons, and dragon figurines in a glass cabinet. After cleaning him up Gohan put the boy down to his bed, and turn on a small radio that play a lullaby, and left the room to speak with his wife and daughter.
"So why was my brother here," asked Gohan. Together they sat in the living room on the couch.
"He knows, and he kinda threaten to tell Trunks if I don't," said Pan. "How did he know," asked a surprised Gohan.
"Well he just put the events together. We went to a party three years ago, he lost me, I disappeared, and voila three year old son shows up. He feels a bit guilty about it. Thinks I regret it all, but I told him I am happy with how my life came to be," said Pan.
"I can't believe he figured it out. But sweetie I know his heart was in the right place. I do agree with him. You need to tell Trunks. Wait any longer and that door of a future together will never open again," said Videl.
Gohan nodded in agreement, "I agree with them, but we can't force you. It's your choice. Get some sleep sweetheart," said Gohan.
Gohan got up and kiss Pan in the forehead. He grabbed Videl's hand, and they walk into their bedroom. Pan stayed on the couch looking through many scenarios.
~Earlier with Goten~
"Hey son. Where ya been," asked Goku. "I went to visit Pan," said Goten taking a seat next to his father.
"I am still hurt that my son never told us they were leaving. How is she doing," asked Chichi. "I have to tell you something. Mom dad...you two are great-grandparents," said Goten.
Seconds later.
"BULLA IS PREGNANT," yelled Chichi. Chichi magically pull out a pan and was about to smack her youngest son with it, but Goku was holding her down. "Mom calm down. I didn't get her pregnant. What I'm trying to say is Pan is a mother. Didn't you hear me say 'great-grandparent'," said Goten.
"What? Oh my poor Panny. She needs all the help she can get. She needs diapers, doctor appointments, and everything," said Chichi. "Mom...she already had the baby, and he is three years old," said Goten looking at his mother in the eyes.
"But she's only 16 now right," asked Goku. Chichi looks like she is heartbroken.
"She got pregnant at 13, and it's all my fault. If I hadn't lose her none of this would have happened. She wouldn't have disappeared on us," said Goten. "What do you mean if you hadn't lose her," asked Goku.
"Three years ago when she was last here she slept over remember. Trunks snuck in, and took us to a party. I know it was stupid, but it seemed like a great idea at the time. I was looking after her, but I got sidetracked and next thing I knew I couldn't find her anywhere. I thought the worst. I feel extremely guilty so useless, but she said that she doesn't regret the party, because her son is everything to her," said Goten.
Chichi grabbed a hold of his hand. "It wasn't your fault honey. You tried your best, and if she wanted to tell us she would have years ago. She's safe and happy. That's all that matters," said Chichi.
"So who is the father," asked Goku eating his drumstick.
"That is a secret I promise to keep," said Goten. He later explained how he came to find out about Pan's son.
"I want to see him," said Chichi. "I think they'll tell us soon when we can," said Goku. "At least tell me if my great-grandson is adorable," said Chichi. "Adorable black haired and blue eye you'll ever see. When is dinner? I'm starving," said Goten. "Me too," said Goku.
"Both of you are always hungry. You ate a drumstick too," said Chichi walking into the kitchen. Once dinner was ready Goten and Goku ate like it was the end of the world.
~Saturday Afternoon~
Knock Knock.
"Can you get the door this time," said Goten. Videl sigh and walk to the door and gasp. "Trunks. What a surprised," said Videl.
"DADDY," said Alec. "Hey there little guy. Ready for today? Where's your mom," said Trunks picking up Alec to his shoulder. "I'm right here. How you find me," asked Pan walking down the stairs.
"Well to tell the truth. I went through the city files until I found the Sons,". Pan raise her eyebrows. "Okay I follow you home," said Trunks.
"Goten told you," said Pan. Trunks nodded. "It's nice to see you again Trunks. You've grown well. How is your family," asked Videl.
"Everyone is doing okay. Hello Gohan. How are you?," Trunks said offering a handshake. Gohan took advantage of the offer.
"Um dad? I think you're hurting him," said Pan worrily. "Please let go," said Trunks. After a few seconds Gohan let go. "Be nice dad. We'll be back before dinner," said Pan.
The three of them walked out of her house. "So is there anything you want to do," asked Trunks. "I got nothing. How about you Alec," asked Pan. "Anything daddy wants to do," said Alec.
"Well I was hoping you don't mind we have a picnic at Capsule Corp in our backyard," said Trunks. "Sounds perfect," said Trunks. "Surprising you don't live too far from me," said Trunks.
They walk in silent and arrived at their destination. Pan walked inside the familiar home of the Briefs. "Hey Trunks. Why is it quiet? Where is everyone," asked Pan.
"My sister went on a date with Goten, my parents went out which is very rare, and my grandparents went shopping," said Trunks. "If I didn't know any better. I would say I'll be in trouble if Alec wasn't here," said Pan with a smile.
"You could say that," he said with a smirk. "Is this a park," asked Alec. Trunks stifle a laugh. "No little guy. This is my backyard. I know it's pretty big. It's good for hide and seek,".
"Can we play that," asked Alec.
"After we eat okay sweetie," said Pan. Alec smile and nodded. Everyone settled on a blanket. "So what we're having," asked Pan. "We got a few burgers, chips, sandwiches, cookies, soda, applesauce, and yogurt," said Trunks. "Yummy," said Alec.
After they ate Alec was getting sleepy. "Come here little guy. I'll take you to a room, so you can sleep," said Trunks taking him to his arms. Alec yawn.
Trunks took him to a room on the first floor, and put him on a bed and cover him in a blanket. Pan was in the living room watching tv. "So Pan. Is it really hard as people say. You know raising a kid," he asked as he hopped on the couch next to her.
"Well it is, but since a single parent is much more harder. I'm lucky enough to have my parents help," she said looking at him.
He didn't realize how close he was to her. Close enough to kiss her. She look at his lips than his eyes, and back to his lips. He lean in close, and he felt it. A spark between them. She kiss him back, but then felt his tongue asking for entrance, and she happily accepted it.
About five minutes of making out. Pan pushed Trunks away for air. "Um Trunks before this gets serious. I have to tell you something,". She could feel her heart pounding away fast. "How much do you love Alec," she asked.
"Wow. Okay. To tell the truth. I can't say I love him, but he's a cool kid," he said. Pan took a deep breath. "I know this is going to be hard to believe, but it's the truth. You're the father of my baby. You're Alec's dad," she said.
"I'm nobody's father. I know who I slept with, and you're not one of the," he said angrily. "It was three years ago. We were both drunk. Don't you remember," she said. "You have me confused with someone else. We didn't have sex. I would have never slept with you drunk or not," he said.
Pan's heart broke at his words. "So you only ever thought of me as your friend. What's the difference to now? You think that since I have Alec I would just open my legs for you? I lost my virginity to you, and you lost it to me,".
"Stop being so crazy. I thought you were different. Having Alec gives you a different vibe, but I was wrong. You're just like those girls. Childhood friend my ass. You just want my money. Get into a relationship with some rich guy, and pin him as the 'real father'. Your stupid plan failed. Don't you know you never pin it on a friend. Are you sure you're fit to be a mother?," he said.
"I'm not crazy. That's our son. I'm telling you the truth. You're his father. Remember our kiss at school? You said it felt familiar. Don't you think it's because of our night three years ago. Try to remember," she said with tears.
"Stop saying that. It's not true. The Panny I knew would never lie to me like this. Accept the fact and move on," he said keeping his cool.
"I'M NOT LYING. LOOK AT HIS EYES. HE HAS YOUR BLUE EYES," she yelled.
"I'M NOT STUPID. YOUR MOM ALSO HAVE BLUE EYES," he yelled back at her.
"WHY CAN'T YOU ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE HIS FATHER,".
"CAUSE I'M NOT THE FUCKING FATHER OF THAT FUCKING KID. YOU KNOW WHAT?! GET OUT OF MY FUCKING HOUSE, AND TAKE THAT GODDAMN SON WITH YOU,".
Trunks slap Pan hard, and she is shaking so much now and crying nonstop. At that moment Alec show up. "Mommy daddy. Please stop fighting," he said with tears in his eyes.
"I'M NOT YOUR FUCKING DADDY, AND I NEVER WILL BE," shouted Trunks angrily. "Why are you being so scary," said Alec crying next to his mom.
The door open revealing Bulma and Vegeta. "Women. Please can we rest now," said Vegeta. "Yeah yeah just calm...down...Trunks what's going on here? Is that Pan?," said Bulma. "Just ask the whore. I'm going to my room," said Trunks.
Bulma and Vegeta walk to the crying girl and boy on the floor. "Panny? Is that you?," asked Bulma. Pan couldn't find her voice but nodded. "What did that brat do?," asked Vegeta. Pan tried to stop crying.
"I shouldn't have never told him. This was all a bad idea," said Pan. "What was a bad idea? It's okay you can tell me," said Bulma caressing Pan's cheek. "To tell Trunks that he is the father of my three year son, but he won't believe me. He just call me a whore. He yelled at Alec, and he slap me and it really hurts," said Pan rubbing her cheek.
"That bra knows never to hit a women. I'll be back," said Vegeta. "No Vegeta. Please no more violence. Alec has seen enough," said Pan. "Mommy. Why is daddy being scary?,".
"I don't know baby, but everything is going to be okay. Daddy is just a little angry," said Pan sadly.
"I don't care what you say, but I'm going to straighten him out," said Vegeta walking to his son's room.
"Pan I believe you. You will never lie," said Bulma. "Trunks thinks I did. I may have been drunk when it all happen, but you never forget your first time. Guess I wasn't memorable for him. He was fine with Alec calling him daddy, but when it comes to it he won't accept the truth. It was our first date, and I ruined it. I actually thought he would be happy. What can I do to prove him that he's the father of my son," said Pan.
"Honey you're in the house of a scientist. A simple DNA test will settle the whole thing," said Bulma.
"Oh my god! Thank you so much Bulma. How quickly can it be done?," Pan asked. "Just a couple of minutes. So three years old huh. That would mean you were only 13 years old. You're a very strong girl to handle such a pregnancy. It was dangerous of you to have gone along with it, said Bulma.
"You do anything the moment you know you have growing life within you," said Pan.
~With Trunks and Vegeta~
"You didn't have to slap her," said Vegeta. "I got angry okay. I know it's not an excuse, but I didn't know what elses to do. I feel really bad about, but I won't take back what I said," said Trunks.
"You know when your mother told me she was pregnant I was kind of thrill about it. You have a three year son who is scared out of his mine, because of your anger," said Vegeta.
"How many times do I have to say it. I'm not the FUCKING father. I'm glad you were thrill about mom's pregnancy, but I'm only 16. I can't be a dad. My life would be ruin," said Trunks.
Vegeta smacks his son in the head. "And you didn't even bother to think she may have ruin her life enough. She's been a mother for three years, and you acted like a dad for one day. It's hard being a parent, but a mother does so much. What the hell are you doing to do if you really are the father," said Trunks.
Trunks face soften. "I would apologize as much as I can, and I really do like her dad. I know I screw up big time,".
"Sorry isn't going to cut it. You slap her, called her a whore, and you yelled at her and her son," said Vegeta leaving the room.
"TRUNKS GET YOUR DUMBASS DOWN HERE," shouted Bulma. Trunks went down to the laboratory. He was going to say something to Pan, but she looked away. "We're going to settle this right now," said Bulma.
Bulma took salvia samples from both Alec and Trunks, and scan them into the computer. "Pan if this turns out to be positive I just want to say how sorry I am,". Pan shake her head. "You got to do more than saying sorry," said Pan, Trunks sign. "I know," he said sadly.
Bulma looked over at the results, and she walks over to Trunks and smacks him on the head. "You idiotic son of mine I didn't raise you to be this way. Congratulations you have a three year old,".
Bulma let the couple be. She went back up to her husband.
"There's nothing you can say that would make it all better. I was your friend since diaper days. You should have known me better. Did the money made you this way? Did you even know I was in love with you? When I saw you again did you know how hard it was to see you with girl after girl? I'm still very much in love with you. I wanted this to go well so badly, but the fortune you have changed you," she said with tears falling down her face.
"I can't take back what I said, but now that I know I will do all I can to make it up to you. If you have me I would like a second chance at us. And Alec I'm sorry for saying those words. I shouldn't have done that. I'm your daddy, and I will never leave you," said Trunks.
Trunks looked at Pan seeking permission from her. She nodded her head, and he picked up his son. He hugged him, and cried his eyes out. Trunks kept repeating the word sorry.
