"Pan... We need to talk." His gaze was so stern and serious, I began to get really frightened about how hurt and mad he really was.
I approuched the bed slowly but stayed a step away just so he would not be uncomfortable with me being too close. I wanted to lay down next to him and curl up into his arms and pretend like he was fine, we were all safe and none of this was happening but with the look he has on his face at this moment, I am sure he's kick me off the bed and look at me like the crazy little brat he'd always known.
He patted the bed next to him and faced a less pained smile onto his face. "Have a seat." I sat down quickly but I was totally rigid. Why, when I knew my father and our friends were fighting to save the world, did I have to urge to just spend time with Trunks? I felt as though the rest of the world melted away, while I sat on the edge of Trunks' bed exchanging stares with him.
"Um... W-What did you want to talk about?" I tired to pull my thoughts together but I don't think it helped because I sounded more like a little girl trying to talk to a new boy for the first time, then I did a woman talking to a man she had known her entire life.
Without warning, Trunks placed his hand over mine and smiled. "I thought I told you not to come."
I felt the warmth grow up into my face as he smiled. "I know. I'm so sorry." The guilt set in and I felt my eyes well with tears. "Its all my fault that you got hurt. If I had not been distracting you..."
He leaned up slightly in his bed and placed a finger over my lips sliencing me immediatly. I tried to look away from him out of shame but he placed his hand under my chin, pulling it up to look him in the eye. Without a word, his eyes also misted over as well as he wiped each of my eyes with his thumb. The gesture was so small but the feel of his skin to mine made my stomach so tumbles. Without even realizing what I was doing, I too reached my hand up and wiped his eyes as well. My hand found its way to his cheek.
"I thought you were gonna die. I don't know what I wou--"
There his finger went over my lips again. "Shhhh. I'm fine. We'll all make it though. We've done it before. Remember space?" We both giggled at that. Then I felt his hand behind my head pulling me towards him. Before I knew it Trunks kissed me. It was more like a brushing of the lips but the impact of it hit me deep and when he pulled back sheepishly with a blush highlighting his face. I felt breathless. Part of me wanted to run and hide but a larger part of me wanted to kiss him again. To show him that I wasn't little Pan-chan anymore and to show him how much I really did care.
"Promise me something, Pan-chan." He looked as though he was pleading through his eyes.
I was almost speechless but I managed to squeak out, "Anything."
"Be safe and come back in one piece after you save the world. Is it a problem?"
"I promise." I ran my hand through his hair without even thinking. "Will you be okay while I'm gone?"
He caught my hand and pulled me down to him so our chests were almost touching. "I'll be fine, as long as you come back safe."
"I will. I promise." I smiled.
He pulled me closer and kissed me again but this time it was a more passionate, almost a hungry kiss. "I'll be waiting then. Be safe."
I jumped up and smiled then ran out the door before I lost my nerve. I left the Capsule Corp quickly before anyone could question me about Trunks and my conversation. As I got back to the battle scene, I watched as Yamcha, Tien, 18 and Krillin were struck by a large ki blast sending them flying into a nearby building. Dad and Vegeta were now super sayajin and preparing for a new wave of attacks.
When my gaze caught up with Brolly, a feeling shot through my body, so intense that I'd never before felt anything like it. The rage was insane. This man had hurt my friends and was trying to destroy my world. How much more was this man willing to do? My whole body began to shake as I felt the rage well up within me. I felt as though I could explode. Thats when I saw Dad and Vegeta attack Brolly. He grabbed one of them in each hand and sent them hurling across town and into a local highrise building.
That was it! The rage welled in me so strong, I wanted to cry but I could not surpress it. I wanted to take that man, rip his head off and spit down his throat! A primal scream came out of my body that would wake the dead and before I knew what was happening, the air around me turned gold and it took me a moment to realize that I had become a super sayajin!
