Last time on Say You Love Me:
Trunks brought up his knees and wrapped his arms around them placing his head on top of his knees. "I just, fell in love with someone else without even knowing it I guess. I don't understand. I could have sworn I was totally in love with Marron."
"Baka, that's because you've bonded with Pan and not Marron and you did it without even realizing it." Vegeta said as he stood over Bulma and Trunks.
"Bonded?" Trunks asked.
"Yes bonded. All saiyans do with their mates. I've done it with your mother. Kakarott and his mate, as well as Gohan and his mate and now you too have done so with Pan. Later on, Kakarott's other brat with do so too."

Chapter 8: Losing Hope?
Trunks flew in desperation towards the Son house. He had to get a hold of Pan. He hadn't seen her in a week or so. 'When I get there… will she even want to see me?' Trunks thought to himself over and over again. Lowering his head in shame, 'I was such an jerk to her!' He yelled at himself. 'I wouldn't blame her if she didn't want to even see me at all.'
As Trunks battled with himself in his head, the Son house came in view quickly. When he reached the house, he stopped and just floated above. His eyebrows furrowing in thought as to whether go there and talk to Pan, or not. But then his father's words went through his head. Making his final decision, as he really had no choice, he flew down to the door. With a slight hesitation he knocked softly.
"Just a minute!" He heard Videl's voice answer through the door. About a few seconds later the door opened showing a very startled Videl. "Oh um, Trunks, hi! What are you doing here… Aren't you suppose to be at your wedding!?!"
Trunks twiddled with his fingers. "Um well, you see, um…" Trunks trailed off a bit.
Standing there and looking at him in confusion, Videl finally offered for him to come inside and sit in the living room. "Okay Trunks. Seriously now, what brings you here?"
"Well, I was just at my um, wedding…" he paused. "Actually I was just wondering if you could tell me where Pan is?"
A little startled, Videl shifted awkwardly in her seat. "What for Trunks?"
"I just really need to talk to her. It's very important that I speak with her at once. It's urgent that I do so immediately."
Videl could see the desperation in his eyes as he looked at her, she sighed. "I'm sorry Trunks. I can't tell you where she is; I promised her that I would not give any information about her whereabouts or anything to that matter. And, we aren't really expecting her home for as long as 4 years."
Trunks frowned at what Videl was telling him. "Videl, surely you can tell me, please."
"Trunks, I have to respect Pan's privacy when she needs it. It would be very disrespectful if I told you where she was. I'm really sorry. You just have to understand." Videl watched the emotions change through Trunks' eyes. She wasn't absolutely sure as to what was going on, but she had a close enough idea as to what it was.
Trunks bit his bottom lip hard. A sharp pain shot through his chest. He clutched the side of his chair tightly and bent forward, as the pain grew deeper until he blacked out and fell unconsciously to the floor. "Oh my gosh! Trunks! What's wrong!" Videl yelled. Panicking, she quickly ran over to the kitchen where the phone was, she picked up the phone and dialed Bulma's cell number.
*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**
Trunks woke up groggily, his vision was blurred so he was unable to focus on anything around him. The pain in his chest was gone. When his vision finally recovered itself, he noticed that he was back in his room at the Capsule Corps. 'That's odd, how did I get here?' He questioned to himself. Trying to sit up on his bed, a hand gently pushed him back and he saw his mother.
"Trunks honey, you really need to get rest, so don't move and go back to sleep," she spoke softly as she placed his blankets over him tucking him in as if he was 5 again.
"But.." he started to say but was cut off by Vegeta.
"You heard your mother boy," Vegeta spoke sternly as he came into view crossing his arms over his chest.
Trunks sighed his defeat knowing that he wasn't going to be able to get anywhere. Closing his eyes, he fell back asleep quickly. Bulma looked down upon the sleeping form of her son. She frowned, Trunks had nearly given her two heart attacks and in just one day. "First the wedding and now this. I don't understand Vegeta." She looked towards him, her eyes full of worry as tears fell down her face. "What's happening to Trunks?"
Vegeta grunted as his mate came launching herself into his arms and squeezing him tightly as she let the tears fall from her eyes. Placing his arms around her waist, he spoke in a stern tone, "I told you woman. Don't you ever listen to anything I say? The brat is going through bonding pains. Obviously it has something to do with that other brat he bonds with. She's either with someone, hurt, or he had heard some sort of bad news which involved her."
Bulma sighed as she released her hold on Vegeta and wiped the tears away from her face. "My poor Trunks. What's to become of this…" she spoke in a soft tone.

Pan had just finished busting her last table at work. It was time for her to finally go home. She and her new friend Claire were going to La Miza that evening.
Arriving at her apartment, Pan went to her bathroom to prepare her bath. Claire was due to arrive in about an hour to pick Pan up. While running her bath water, Pan went to her room and to her closet to pick out an outfit for the evening. She pulled out her favorite tight black leather pants and a tight red halter-top.
After Pan was finished with her bath and getting into her outfit, she applied a bit of make-up. She curled her hair and placed it on top of her head, letting a few ringlets to fall around her face. Checking herself out in the bathroom mirror, Pan gave herself a satisfied smile.
A knock came from the door and Pan rush to answer it expecting her friend Claire to be behind the door. Pan gasped in surprise at the unexpected guess. "Um, Robert?" She questioned. "What are you doing here?"
Robert took a deep breath before he began to speak, "I'm sorry to just come up and show to your door like this, but I needed to talk to you. And may I say Pan, you are looking absolutely gorgeous tonight." Pan blushed.
Clearing her throat she responded, "Well, what is it that you want to talk about Robert?"
"Well you see, the thing is, I can't get my mind off of you. I mean, I know we barely know each other, but you're all I think about." This caused Pan to blush even more into a dark crimson red. "Pan, I'd really like to take you out on a date. So, how bout it?" He perked his eyebrows up as he awaited her answer.
Pan sighed, not knowing what to do, she was still in love with Trunks after all in spite of what he did and said to her. Yet she didn't want to hurt Robert's feelings even though she still had not known him all so well yet. Then the idea popped in her head, maybe if she went out with Robert, she could finally forget Trunks. Giving him a weak smile she answered. "Sure, why not?"
Smiling in joy he picked Pan up and gave her a hug and a quick peck on the cheek. "Thanks Pan. Let's say, I'll pick you up tomorrow at 6? Does that sound all right?"
"Sure thing. I'll be here." She smiled at him.
His dark eyes sparkled, "All right, I'll see you then. Bye Pan."
"Bye Robert." Pan couldn't help but feel a little down about it though. She liked Robert a lot. But she felt she was betraying a part of herself if she went out with some other guy to mostly forget about another guy. Pan ignored the nagging feeling inside her and waited for Claire to arrive.
About a half-hour later, Claire finally arrived to pick up Pan. They went to 'La Miza' and talked about stuff, danced. Pan discussed the Robert issue, but she left out the parts about her feelings for another guy back in her hometown, Trunks. Claire was so excited to see that Pan already was dating some guy and she hadn't even lived there for more than 2 or 3 days. Claire giggled at the fact.
"What's so funny?" Pan asked with a confused look on her face.
"Oh nothing. I just think it's cool that you already have a boyfriend and all."
"He is not my boyfriend Claire. We are just going out on one date, doesn't actually considers us together or anything."
Claire giggled again. "Well not yet."
Pan rolled her eyes and decided to change the subject. "Hey why don't we go rent a couple movies and get some popcorn and hang out at my place."
"Sure sounds like a blast!" With that, they left the club and rented two movies, Moulin Rouge and 10 things I hate about you. They picked up some popcorn and some other sweets. They giggled and chatted all throughout the movies and then dozed off in the middle of one the movies at around 4 in the morning.
*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**
The next day Pan woke up in the early afternoon. She decided that it was about time that she wrote her best friend Bra a letter. Being that she felt really bad that she didn't even tell her she was leaving or anything else to that matter. Getting out a piece of paper and pen, she started to write.
Dear Bra,
Hey girl, it's me Pan. I just wanted to write you tell to tell you how sorry I am that I didn't inform you on my leave. I can't tell you where I am either, in fear that you might tell the others of my whereabouts when I just needed some time off. I should be home in like 2 years or 4 years at the longest. I know that is a long time away, but I just need it. Anyway, I also wanted to tell you what's up in the town that I am staying at. My new school seems pretty good far. And as a surprise, I have no enemies yet. YET that is. Anyway, I made a few new friends here at school, and the coolest one yet, her name is Claire, she reminds me a bit of you, only without the temper and strength so much. Also, I met this guy. His name is Robert. Um, he is taking me out tonight on a date. Anyway, that's all I really have to say for now, I can't give you the address to write back, but I will continue to write you and I should call you as well. Anyway, I want you to tell everyone I said hi, and that I miss all of them. Even Trunks… I love you all.
Love,
1 Panny
Pan folded the letter and stuck it in the envelope and labeled it for Bra Briefs and put the Capsule Corps. address underneath. She made sure she didn't place hers on the top corner. Licking the envelope closed she put the stamp and walked out to mail the letter.

"Baka, that's because you've bonded with Pan and not Marron and you did it without even realizing it." Vegeta said as he stood over Bulma and Trunks.
"Bonded?" Trunks asked.
"Yes bonded. All saiyans do with their mates. I've done it with your mother. Kakarott and his mate, as well as Gohan and his mate and now you too have done so with Pan. Later on, Kakarott's other brat with do so too."
