Chapter 7: Veronica meets Cleo
(Trunks' POV)
Three months has passed since Cleo and I found out we're having a baby. All I've been doing was working, training, and keeping an eye on my wife. "Sir, a woman on the phone name Cleo said she claims to be your wife, and she wants to talk to you. Do you want me to transfer the call to you" My secretary, Maddie said on the speaker.
"Yes, would you." I command her. Just in seconds, I heard a calming cheery voice. "Hey Trunks, how was your morning meeting?" Her voice greeted. "It went well. How are you and the unborn kid doing?" I replied.
"Fine. We're fine. The baby is really active. He's been kicking and turning all afternoon. Well…anyways I called because I wanted to see you at your job." She said excitedly. "Sure, it would nice for you to come. I mean…come on my employees needs to meet their boss's wife. Don't you think, babe."
"Okay, I'll be there shortly. Bye Trunks." My mermaid wife said. "Bye." I hung up and press a button to inform Maddie to let Cleo in once she gets here. "Maddie, my wife, Cleo will be here so let her pass in, okay." I called her. "Okay, sir." She responded back. Later, I heard a bam sound from my office door and an average size thin woman appeared right in front of me. Oh great it's her. I hope she's gone before Cleo arrives.
"Sir, I tried to stop her." My secretary came into my office. I looked at her. "It's okay Maddie. I'll handle it." I gave her a signal to leave which she returns back to her desk. I return to look at the obnoxious woman who standing very annoyingly. "Hello Trunks, it's nice to see you again." The woman smiled very seductive.
"Why are you here, Veronica?" I said with a dark tone.
(Cleo's POV)
After hanging the phone up, I packet up some snacks for him. "Hey Gaby and Pan, do you guys want to come with me to visited Trunks?" I spotted them since they came back from school. "Sure, we would love to company with you. Right, Gaby?" Pan look at her friend. "Fine, since there's nothing to do. We'll go and annoyed my big brother." Gaby agreed. So we all grabbed our stuff and hopped in the limo. I'm still not used of being in a wealthy life. Wow now I know why Rikki feels uncomfortable when she goes to Zane's house or a party. From thinking about Rikki, I miss her, Emma, and Bella. Maybe after visiting Trunks from his office, I could call them to see how they are doing. And my family too.
Once we arrived from the Capsule Corp., a secretary name Maddie leads us to my purple hair husband's office. "Hello Mrs. Briefs, I'm Maddie your husband's secretary and it's nice to meet you." The nice lady shook my hand. "Oh you could just call me Cleo." I informed her. Then Gaby and Pan greeted her back. "Hi Maddie, I love what you did your hair." Pan notice Maddie's hairstyle. "Really? Thank you Pan. You're such a sweetheart." Maddie smiled.
"Sup' Maddie, Is my big brother in his office?" Gaby looked at her. "Yes, you may all pass in."
Once Gaby opened the door, I saw a woman tried to kiss him, but Trunks quickly dodge her. At first, I was upset that he decides to cheat on me but when he dodges that slut I quickly recover. Stupid hormones, they're driving me crazy.
"Cleo, this is not what it looks like." Trunks looked scared. "It's ok, Babe. Gaby warned me that your crazy ex-girlfriend might be here." I smiled at him. When I look at that woman, she stopped harassing him and also looks at me. "Hi Trunks, Gaby and I will see you guys later." Pan greeted him awkwardly. "What? We're leaving…but I want to stay and see this?" the fourteen years old whined. "Well… you can't! Come on let's wonder around this building, okay." Pan dragged the saiyan princess out of Trunks' office.
After the girls left, the woman stepped away from Trunks and glared. "Trunks, who is she?" Her finger pointed at me. "I'm Cleo, his wife." I smirked.
"So you weren't kidding about you having a wife." The skinny woman continued. "So who are you?" I demanded her. "I'm Veronica…his former girlfriend." She still continues glaring at me.
"Well…Veronica it's nice to meet you, but Trunks and I are going out. Right, babe." I went to Trunks and hugged him tightly. From Veronica's point of view, she didn't take it well when Trunks wasn't lying about him been married. "Humph!" She grabbed her small purse and walk out of the office. I hope she gets the idea that Trunks doesn't want her.

(At Restaurant)
Since I owe Cleo from Veronica's problem, I took her to a nice restaurant to calm her down. "Okay, let's see what we have here." I opened the menu to see what's good. "I'm in the mood for seafood. What about you?" Cleo putted down the menu. "I wonder if they have a 72 oz of New York steak." I looked up and Cleo's eyebrow went up. "Trunks, I don't think they serve a 72 oz of steak." "Well…doesn't matter I'll get a steak." The waiter came in and we order our meal.
(At home)
We came back from our date. "Hey Trunks, can I borrow your phone?" Cleo asked. "Sure, who you're going to call in this hour?" I asked her curiously.
"I am calling my family and friends. I haven't talk to them for six months." I passed the phone to her, and she went to a private room to call them alone. I went upstairs to call it a day. "Ok, I'll see you after making your phone call." I yelled upstairs.
(Cleo's POV)
I sat on a couch and begin to dial one of my friends' numbers. I swear could feel my heart beating fast. I hope they're not mad at me.
(Rikki's POV)
Ring, Ring… my dad answered the phone. "Hello this is The Chadwick's residences, who am I speaking to?" I looked at my dad and turned back to the TV. My dad looked at me. "Sweetie, its Cleo." I froze when he said Cleo called. I ran to him and he handed the phone to me. "Cleo is it really you?" My voice changed from shocking to excited.
"Yes, Rikki it's me." She responded back. "Cleo, where have you been? We all miss you especially Lewis."
"Rikki I don't fucking care about Lewis. You know he broke my heart." Wow somehow she is not the Cleo I known. Man, Lewis and Charlotte messed her up pretty bad. "I'm sorry Rikki for my outburst." She apologized.
"It's okay I shouldn't have said his name." I'm double shock about Cleo's behavior. "Rikki, the reason I called you because I'm ready to come back and visited you guys. Also, I need to learn to face Lewis and Charlotte." I can hear the hatred tone when she mentions nerd boy and the redheaded slut.
"Wait you're just visiting. Are you not staying here?" I was disappointed about Cleo not staying here. "So when are you coming?" I asked. "Tomorrow." She said. "Okay I'll call everyone. I'll see you soon. Bye." The last word I heard from her was. "Bye." We both hang up. I can't believe it. For six months Cleo finally will come home.
Next thing I did, I called Emma. "Hey Emma call Bella and tell her to meet us at your house."
"Why? What going on?" She said worriedly. "It's about Cleo."
(Cleo's POV)
When I hang up the phone, Gaby appeared in front of me. "So can I go with you and Trunks to Australia?"
"And…how do you know I'll be planning to go to Australia?" I said curiously. "That easy, I overheard you from your phone conversation with your friend, Rikki." Wow that's weird. "Well…I have to go convince your brother about this trip." I said. "Well good luck I'll see you in the morning." We both head upstairs. Once I opened the door, I saw Trunks already asleep. I hate to wake him up. He gets really cranky. "Trunks I need to talk to you." All I got from him is "What, woman. Can we talk in the morning?" he said. "Well…no because I want to go back home and visit my family and friends." Just when I said "home", he woke up. "What? Visit tomorrow?"
"Yeah…can we go please? I'm ready and I want my father and sister to know they're going to be grandfather and aunt." I gave him a puppy face. He groans. "Ahh… fine we'll leave in the morning." He finally said. "Oh can Gaby come along?" I said hopefully. "What? Why?"
"Because… she really wants to see Australia." I said. "Fine, she could come." I smiled happily. I gave him a goodnight kiss and went to get ready to go to bed.
