Best Friends

Best Friends

Chapter Four

I don't own Dragonball so don't sue.

*The Son House-

Pan's Bedroom*

* Pan's POV *

Trunks... my best friend. He has always been someone special in my life, and now these feelings are confusing me. What if he doesn't want to be more than my friend? I have always known him, and I could tell him anything, but not this. I am so miserable. Not until Marron asked Trunks to the prom did I feel so outraged and jealous.

I mean, she's always been after Trunks, but it has never really mattered to me much. Maybe it's because he never paid any attention to her. At school, all the girls like Trunks and some would say they think they love him, but I never felt like this. I guess maybe it's finally hit me that Trunks has meant more to me than just a friend.

I can still remember that day at Capsule Corp. I was five years old, and Bulma was having a party. It was the first time I have ever wore a dress. When I arrived at the party, Trunks was dancing with Marron, and she gave him a kiss.

It was funny, seeing the surprise on his face. I new he was going to be sick, so I went to rescue him. We danced until we couldn't stand any longer. It was late and every one was leaving. I asked Mom and Dad if I could stay the night at Capsule and they said yes. We stayed up late, even though we were told to sleep. That night was the fist time I felt complete.

We made a promise that night, this is what we said, "We make a promise on this night, of are ever lasting friendship.

No matter where we are,

or who we meet,

We will never let it keep us apart.

We will always have each other,

In a call,

Or a letter,

and even a visit or two.

Through the bad and the good,

Through the tears and laughter.

Our friendship will never die, just grow.

We have a special friendship that not even the strongest winds can keep apart.

Friends for life and one day maybe more."

I don't know why he wanted to make this promise, but I'm glad we did because like we said, our friendship will never die just grow.

* Meanwhile *

* Capsule Corp-Trunks' Bedroom *

* Trunks POV *

At an early age I fell for the most wonderful girl that could ever walk the planet. I was just six years old when the feeling came for my best friend. We are always together and we do almost everything with each other. I could tell her anything and she could do the same, but when it comes to what I feel for her, I'm speechless.

My mother told me once that liking someone is sometimes complicated and yet so simple. She was right. After all this time, I have dealt with the complicated part and now it's time to make it simple. In a week will be the last dance of my high school and I will not spend it with a girl I feel nothing for. I will do whatever it takes to have Pan by my side.

Over the years, I've realized what Pan really means to me. There will be those who say I'm too young to know what love is, but love is just a word that we use to express how we feel. But if what you feel can not be said, how can you say that it is not love?

In a few weeks, I will be leaving for college, and I'm afraid that I will lose her. I mean, I'll be back of course because Mom's already talking about me taking over and becoming President of Capsule Corp. The idea is not well noted in my part, but how do you say 'no' to a mother like mine? It seems I don't have the ability to say 'no' to anyone.

Don't get me wrong, Marron is the sweetest person, but she is just not for me. I have a week to find someone to take my place. Maybe I'll get one of my friends to ask her. I mean, they all have a thing for her, but they're all perverts and I don't want to do that to her. I'll find someone. What if I can't find someone? Maybe I just won't go. What have I done Dende to deserve this? Do you hate me? At one time today I thought everything was going good, then something or someone always interferes.

She is all I see,

all I need.

Forever friends, or

maybe more.

You and I.

Together through out all time.

Friends for life, and maybe one day something more.

She is all I see,

all I need.

Forever friends, or

maybe more.

Only time will tell.

Can it work between two friends to become something more then what they are? All I know is, whatever happens between me and Pan, I believe our friendship will only grow because I know what I want. She is all I see and all I need.

* The Day Before the Prom *

* Capsule Corp

Trunks bedroom *

"Hey, bro! So, are you ready for the big dance tomorrow?" asked Bra sitting herself on the bed.

"Yep!" said Trunks while fixing his hair.

"Wow! You seem to be in a very good mood, for someone who was bummed out just a week ago." said Bra, looking confused.

"That was then." said Trunks, now looking at his sister.

"What changed?"

"My date."

"Your not taking Marron? Wait you going to take Pan. Oh that is so romantic, I have to call her." said Bra picking up the phone.

"No!"

"Why not?"

"Because she doesn't know she's going!"

"How do you expect to take Pan if she doesn't even know she's invited?"

"Well Sis, I plan on surprising her."

"Well, how do you plan on doing that? And what about Marron?"

"Well, this is what happened... To answer about Marron, I got her another date with a friend that has always had it bad for her. Then how I'm going to surprise Pan? Well, I'm going to be a Prince charming taking his Princess to the prom 'in style.'"

"Bro, that doesn't explain how you're going to get her to go. I mean, what is she going to wear? And what about her hair, shoes and makeup?"

"Don't worry, I have some help."

"Who?"

"Sorry, but that is top secret." said Trunks walking towards the door.

"Where are you going?"

"Have to do some last minute things. Bye." said Trunks, walking downstairs.

************

* Out Side *

"Woman, hurry up!" yelled Vegeta, entering the car.

"Dad, please stop yelling in my ear!"

"Boy, don't tell me what to do. It's your fault I have to come to this stupid bonding thing."

"Vegeta! Was it not you who told me about the stupid... bonding? And if I recall, you said you would rather be related to Kakarott than those Androids who are unworthy, low class, half human, trash." said Bulma staring her husband down.

"Woman, get in the car!"

"I thought so." said Bulma sitting down.

"Hmph."

"Hehehehe!"

"Boy, stop laughing before I throw you out!"

The car was silent.

MEANWHILE

***************

* The Son House- Front door *

"Pan dear, we're leaving and we won't be back until later!" yelled Videl putting her coat on.

"Bye mom, Dad!" yelled Pan from the kitchen.

************

* Chichi's Home *

"Goku, stop eating those snacks."

"But they're so good, and I'm hungry."

"They are for our guest and you just ate ten minutes ago." said Chichi, snatching what was left of the cakes.

"Chichi..."

"No!"

"But, why not?"

"For one thing, they are for our guests and the other for not looking good enough to find out who this girl Goten is seeing!"

"But... he wasn't on a date. He was out with Trunks' sister Bra."

"I don't want to hear it. My baby is keeping secrets from me and you seem not to care." said Chichi in tears.

A knock suddenly sounded at the door.

"Coming." said Chichi, heading to the door.

(Chi-Chi can sure change her attitude, back to the story.)

"Hello!" said Chichi to her guest.

"Where's Kakarott?" asked Vegeta, storming in.

"Hey Vegeta!" said Goku looking at the short man.

"Don't 'hey' me!" said Vegeta looking at the cakes on the table.

"Since you're here, we can eat!" with this said, both men started gulping down the food.

"Hello Chichi." said Bulma walking in.

"Hello. Come in."

"Chichi."

"Oh, come in Trunks."

**************

* Three hours later-

Trunks Car *

* Trunks POV *

It's been three hours, and everything is going great. I was glad to know that my parents liked the idea of me and Pan together.

It shocked the hell out of me when my father said we were bonded. Of course, I loved the idea more than anything.

When I went up to my mother and asked if she could help me out, she asked me what I felt for Pan. I told her that Pan is every thing to me and I could not live without her. In simple terms, I loved her.

She was happy and started crying. She told me that Pan and I were bonded and that my father was the one who told her. But that's not all and that Gohan, Videl, Chichi, and Goku all knew about it. At that moment, a lot of things came to place. That whole thing Gohan and Videl were talking about yesterday now made sense, and now I know why Chichi was harassing me about Marron.

Things are great, I have the help of my family and friends to get Pan to go with me to the prom and I hope for the rest of my life.

At Chichi's, we were organizing who would do what. Everyone was laughing and crying except Dad and Goku. Mom and Chichi made a beautiful dress. We have the shoes and some other things that I had my mother get for me three days ago. I really hope she likes it. Gohan got the limo and called for dinner plans. Videl will do the makeup and hair, and I would bring the roses and myself. All that was left was talking her into going.

That's when my father, of all people, suggested we make her think that there will be a party at Capsule Corp and that way, she won't think twice on why she has to get all dressed up.

Let's just say the whole room was speechless.

But it was a great idea. Every one thought so too. So Videl will tell Pan about the party. Pan will get all dressed up and Videl and Gohan will send her here, but really she will be meeting me at the front entrance of the ballroom in Satan City.(I don't know were they would have a prom at so I made up a ballroom in the city)Where I will be waiting with a rose for my princess.

And from there, we'll see what I have in store.

So what do you think? I know I said it would be longer, but I need a rest. I went to sleep late and I'm tired, but I will have chapter 5 sometime today. Hopefully! Please Review all who read my story, it means a lot to me and I would like to know how many people are reading. So just write something, pleaseeeeeeeeeeee?
