Chapter 2
Disclaimer: I don't own DBZ/GT.
A/N: Heeeere's the second chapter! Sorry it took so long but out stupid teacher is making us write so many stories at school, that when I come home I wanna do anything BUT write stories! ^__^ Heehee…
That caught Marron's attention and she opened her eyes and stared at Trunks with amazement.
"Wha…?" she found herself saying.
Trunks looked at her and smiled. Marron felt herself smiling back at him.
"Trunks," the teacher turned to look at the purple-haired wonder. "Please sit down next to the girl with the pigtails." Some of the students laughed at the mention of Marron's pigtails. Trunks sat down in a desk beside Marron.
Marron turned to look at Trunks and her mouth just hung open. She couldn't find the words. This was a miracle. Finally she wouldn't have to suffer in this stupid school all by herself. Now she had someone who's actually stand up for her. Marron was so happy she let out a little squeal, which caused some people to stare at her.
Trunks turned to Marron and smiled at her again. "Hey, Marron," he said, "How are ya?"
"Good." Was all that Marron could say.
Then the teacher began to talk again. She went on and on about the science project and some other boring stuff that teacher's talk about. Then she mentioned that Trunks would need a partner for the project and like lighting Kia's hand shot up in the air.
"Yes, Kia?" said Mrs. Whitherworth sweetly.
"I would kindly volunteer to be Trunks' partner since I don't have one myself," Kia replied very politely.
Marron snorted to herself. Kia was never so polite. She probably was just going head over heels about Trunks like all the other girls that have met him so far. All the other girls except for Marron. She, on the other hand, didn't find it as strange as all her friend's from her other school did.
"Why thank you, Kia," the teacher said back at Kia. "That is very kind of you."

When the bell for lunch finally rang, everyone was glad to get out of the class. The sworn of students all piled up in the cafeteria. Marron, like many others, hated the school food so she brought her own launch. But Trunks didn't know about it yet, so he had to go into the line.
After Trunks got his lunch he headed for the last table in the cafeteria in which sat only one person, Marron. Trunks had to ignore quite a few invitations to join other people at lunch. It was only his first day and already he was very popular.
Trunks set his tray down on the table and sat down across from Marron.
"Hi, Marron!" he said cheerfully. "Why are you sitting here all alone?"
Marron sighed and answered Trunks' question, "Because everyone in this stupid school hates me. That's why."
"Really?" Trunks raised both of his eyebrows and stared at Marron in pure shock. "I thought every guy in this school would go crazy for you!"
Marron blushed a little while Trunks just gave her a friendly smile. Then Marron looked down at the food Trunks had and laughed.
"Are you really gonna eat that?" she asked him surprised.
"Uhh… Yes I am…" said Trunks a bit confused. "Why?"
"Nothing!" said Marron quickly and stifled in some laughter.
Trunks just looked at her weirdly then looked down at his food. On his plate lay some mushy green stuff with a bit of some brown stuff lying beside it. Trunks felt as if he was about to throw up. But he didn't. He was hungry. Really hungry. If he didn't eat this he was going to starve! Being a sayin's tough…he thought.
Marron almost spit out her orange juice she was drinking, when she saw that Trunks put some of the disgusting stuff on his fork and actually ate it! Whoa! That guy must be crazy! Thought Marron to herself then quietly got back to her own lunch, which was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

That day when Marron got home she was too excited to tell her mom the news about Trunks. She ran up the porch stair real quick and was careful so her skirt wouldn't fly up. But when she got to the door, Marron was surprised to find it locked.
"Mom!" Marron called as she knocked on the door. "Mom?"
No one answered so after about 10 more minutes of knocking Marron decided to visit Trunks instead. It's gonna take a while to get there…thought Marron and sighed. I wish I could fly like my mom and dad!
"Marron!"
Marron turned around to see who had called her name. She smiled a grateful smile when she saw that Trunks was running up to her.
"Where are ya going?" he asked her.
"Hi, Trunks!" Marron replied cheerfully.
"I was just in the neighbourhood so I decided to come and see how you were doing. And now I see that you're leaving somewhere. May I ask where?" said Trunks and bobbed his head to one side.
"I was going to visit you since I'm locked out of my house, but I guess I don't need to do that anymore since you're already here." Answered Marron.
"Hmm…" Trunks though to himself. Then he startled Marron by picking her up and flying off in to the air. "Let's go for a ride." He said with a mischievous grin.
Marron let out a little 'oh!' of shock and grabbed on to Trunks so she wouldn't fall. She looked at his face and saw the grin she remembered only too well. He used to always grin like that when they were little kids. Marron closed her eyes and thoughts of the past flashed through her mind.
The seven-year-old sayin landed softly on the small island. His best friend did the same at his side. Trunks looked around and saw a little girl with blonde pigtails sitting down, playing with an old turtle.
Marron giggled a little as the turtle stuck out its head from its big shell. Then she saw the two boys and looked at them with interest.
"Hewwo!" she said brightly.
"Hey Marron," replied the younger of the two, Goten.
Trunks just crossed his hands on his chest and humphed. He looked away from Marron. He though she was just a little brat. But he didn't dare say it out loud because she would instantly call her mom and he would get in a lot of trouble.
Goten picked Marron up and she giggled again. Unlike Trunks, Goten actually liked to play with Marron. He didn't think she was a little brat at all. He actually thought she was a sweet little girl. Considering the fact that Marron never told on him.
Trunks couldn't hold it in anymore. "Why are you playing with that little twerp?" he said angrily.
"She's not a little twerp!" replied Goten offensively, but set Marron down on the ground anyway.
"Yes, that's right! She's a BIG twerp!" said Trunks and grinned.
"MOMMY!!!" cried the little 3 year old. "Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!!!"
"Oh no…" groaned Trunks as he flew a little off the ground. "C'mon Goten! Let's get outta here!"
Goten nodded nervously and followed Trunks. The two sayin boys were out of site before Juuhachi-gou came out.
"What's wrong, honey?" she asked as she picked Marron up into her arms.
"Twunks called me a twewp!!" she replied as tears started to shine in her eyes.
"That's alright… I'll get him next time," Juuhachi-gou grimaced.
Marron opened her eyes as the cool air blew in her face. She looked at Trunks and smiled. He changed, thought Marron to herself, a lot. But I know he still has Chibi-Trunks buried in him somewhere.
A/N: I'll stop here for this chapter. Heehee… ^__^;; I bet you're all starting to wonder when the Truth or Dare part is going to come in. Well, to tell you the truth that's going to be somewhere in the end. Maybe in the 3rd or 4th chapter. ^^;; I hope. Thanks for reading!
