(Trunks)

"... And then you have a ten o'clock meeting with Mr. Oshinawa." Trunks tried, and failed, at hiding his groan of dispair as his scheduling attendant left the room. He had been going through negotiations with Mr. Oshinawa for the past three weeks, and had gotten no where. The worst thing was, whenever he was scheduled to meet with Mr. O at ten, he'd know for sure he'd be missing lunch. While Trunks didn't have the same giant black hole of a stomach like his father and Goku, his stomach did require a lot of food, and missing lunch was never on the agenda.

"Alright, today I get this stupid tub of lard to agree to the arrangements and I'm going to treat myself to a delicious lunch!" Trunks nodded as he sat down at his desk to finish any other paperwork he might have missed yesterday. "Well, what do you know, I might even get to take off the rest of the day! Even better, its Friday, so I can finally hang out with Goten!" He hadn't seen his longtime friend in quite a while. They'd kept in touch through phone calls every now and then, but Goten had become a self proclaimed "ladies man". He allowed himself a small chuckle as he remembered his mother calling Goten a "mini Yamcha" when he brought up the fact that Goten was dating yet another girl within a five day span. Getting more and more excited about his possible plans that night, Trunks plowed through his remaining work, leaving him with twenty minutes to get ready for his meeting with Mr. Oshinawa.

"Ready or not bud, I'm taking you down today." Trunks began to draw up plans for getting Mr. Oshinawa to finally agree.


(Melanie)

"So, this is your new house dad? Not shabby." Laura Sparhawk cast an appreciative glance around her father's new house.

"Yes, yes. I know I only chose it to be closer to work, but this place has really grown on me." James came out from the dinning room to join his daughter.

"You said that about every house we've moved to, dad." Melanie poked her head over the railing of the upstairs. "And you never said there was three bathrooms here! What are you and Nick going to do with three of those?" She watched as her father looked around confused before he looked up and laughed at her.

"Well, that's what I was going to surprise you two with when I told you about that trip I'm going to be taking in about three weeks. I'll need at least one of you to come make sure Nick doesn't starve himself or kill himself with his inability to cook." He waited until he heard their noises of protest to die down before continuing. "Besides, you two know you'll miss him. Remember when you both went away to college?" The twenty-two year old twins halted their onslaught of complaints as they remembered their four years of college not being able to see their family on a daily basis. Melanie crossed her arms.

"Hey, we got over it after a month. Besides, you and mom were all about family time, so it really is your guys' fault for that one." Melanie went back to the room she was previously in with the sound of her twin and father's voices drifting up to her. Staring at her reflection in the mirror, she brushed of some stray hairs. She looked exactly like her twin, Laura except with green eyes and hip length hair. She showed a small smile as she remembered when they kept their hair the same length and would wear sunglasses even on the cloudiest day to keep people from knowing which was which.

Walking over to the window, she saw the giant yellow dome known as Capsule Corporation looming across the street. Her family was rich, since both her mother and father had high paying jobs, but their fortunes still paled in comparison to the Brief family. Looking down, she noticed a blue haired woman with a man that had seriously gravity defying hair heading towards their house. "I didn't know dad knew the Brief family... So uncool how he didn't say anything about that!" Melanie began to make her way down the winding stairs as she heard the doorbell sound and her father call out for her to come down.

Soooo, whattaya think? It's still short for my approval, so I'm going to try to make them longer! I can definitely say that I will not be able to update anymore this week, since I'm forseeing the amount of homework I'm going to get.. *le cries* Maybe if you leave some reviews it'll make me happy and I'll try to update as soon as possible! :D Por favorr? :3

LilLaoRyo704: I'm glad you like it! :3 I'll try to update as fast as I can, I promise!

Mr. Perfectionist: Haters gonna hate, my hateful friend. But, you have accomplished nothing in hurting my feelings. Sad for you.
