Chapter 11: The Breakdown and The Kiss
On their way to Capsule Corp. the radio started to play a song.
Sound the bugle now play it just for me As the seasons change remember how I used to be
Now I can't go on I can't even start I got nothing left just an empty heart
I'm a soldier wounded so I must give up the fight There's nothing for me lead me away Or leave me lying here
Sound the bugle now tell them I don't care There's not a road I know that leads to anywhere
Without a light I fear that I will stumble in the dark Lay right down and decide not to go on
But from on high somewhere in the distance There's a voice that calls remember who you are
If you lose yourself your courage soon will follow So be strong tonight remember who you are
Your a soldier now fighting in the battle To be free once more that's worth fighting for
And with that the song ended. That song struck Alex right through her heart. She felt like crying of all she lost. But no she won't cry crying is for the weak. And she won't do it. She has to be strong. As they both got to C.C. they walked right in but apparently nobody was there.
"I wonder where is everybody? They must be out." he said as he walked in the kitchen looking for something to drink.
Meanwhile Alex was looking at the pictures that was hanging from the wallsin the livingroom. And some on the tables. She came across a picture that showed Trunks and Goten playing at the beach when they were little. She saw another that had Vegeta and his daughter Bra. Alex thought she was like 8 years old there.
But then something caught her eye she took the frame to get a better look. the showed Trunks' family. It showed Bulma and Vegeta sitting down on the sofa and Trunks and Bra back to back behind them.
Alex couldn't help it but a tear slid down and it landed on the frame. She envied Trunks he has a mother who was alive and a father who doesn't drink and beats you for no reason and he was a good father at that.
She couldn't help but think she wasn't gonna have a family like that. Never. Alex broke down and cried. Back in the kitchen. Trunks heard something like someone crying.
When he entered the livingroom he saw Alex onthe floor crying. He hurried to her worried about her. He knealt down to her level.
"Alex what's wrong?" he asked as he took her into his arms. "There it's ok..."
sniff"I envy you Trunks" she said.
"Why is that?" he asked as he looked at her.
"Because you have a mother who is alive and loves you very much and a father who doesn't beat you cause he's drunk(A/N well he may beat Trunks up but that's only in training he doesn't do it for no reason) and he loves very much. I just keep thinking that I'm never gonna have a family like yours."sniff
"Don't say that you deserve more than just a family you deserve to be loved too."
"Who would want to love a cold hearted, troublemaking, streetfighting girl who's life is a nightmare?" she said lowering her head.
"I would."
Alex raised her head and looked at him. "I'm sorry as much as I like you too you can't love me." she said lowering her head again.
"Why not?"
"Because I'm not the one who your suppose to end with."
"So tell me who do I end up with?"
"I'm sorry Trunks but I can't tell you that."
"Why not?"
"Cause if I told you the whole entire future would change and then I would be the cause of the trouble. I just can't risk in changing your destiny." she said getting up from the floor. Trunks did the same.
"Alex there's one thing you need to know."
"What's that?"
"I make my own destiny." he said as he pulled Alex into a warm and passionate kiss. As they broke away they looked at each other starring into each others eyes.
All these emotions hit Alex like a ton of bricks. She never felt this way before. So this is what it feels like to be loved. To be loved by someone. To be cared by someone. To be kissed by someone who loves you.
No it can't be she's only been there for 2 days it can't be 'love'. Besides she's in a fantasy world. It can't be real or is it?
"I'm sorry Trunks but I can't." she said as she turned around and ran up the stairs to her room. Trunks stood there thinking about what she said. This is first time that he truly loves soembody. And that sombody is Alex.
Alex sat on the floor near her bed in her room thinking about what just happened.
'What am I getting myself into? This can't be happening. Am I really in love? With Trunks? No it can't be. He has to fall in love with Pan not me. Wait a minute Trunks said she was 13 they should have been dating by now. I am totally lost here.'she thought.
'Maybe when we crashed here in the first place it changed everything. Even if we didn't do anything. But I don't know that for sure. Shit I'm back to square one. I've got to figure this out. I'm gonna get some rest it's been a long 'long' day.' Alex took of her shirt and put a white T-shirt on. She went to her bed laid down and in moments she fell asleep.
What will happen between Trunks and Alex? Will Alex ever give him a chance? Next chapter something happens to the girls read and find out thanx for reading love ya.
