chapter 9: Promises
---------

"Mmmm..that was delicious,Videl!" Bulma and Bra patted their full stomachs,satisfied.

"Thanks. It's Pan's faviorite." Videl winked.

"So..Terri's not giving up,is she?" asked Bra,leaning forward with interest.

Pan's head snapped up. "I don't think. Somehow,she just doesn't strike me as the type of woman who forgets something so easily."

"I know. By the way,Trunks started to work again today at Capsule Corps." Bulma remarked.

"He did?" Pan blinked.

"Yup. You know Trunks. He can't stand sitting around at home doing nothing." added Bra.
-----

Terri dialed the number of Capsule Corps impatiently. *I haven't heard from him in a while. Hope he still knows I exsist.* she thought bitterly.

"Hello, Capsule Corps. To whom do you wish to speak to?" The operator asked.

"Hello,I'd like to speak to Trunks Briefs,please,and make it snappy."

"I'm sorry,Mr Briefs is in a very important meeting right now. May I take a message?"

Terri frowned. "I'm not going to listen to your shit! This is important! Call him NOW!"

"I'm sorry,I cannot. And if you continue to curse I'll be forced to-"

"Damn you! I said give Trunks the phone,NOW do you hear me? If you don't I'll make sure you get kicked out of Capsule Corp for good!" Terri spoke threateningly.

The operator seemed to have taken her threat seriously because she spoke shakily saying,"Y-Yes. Of course. Right away. Now,what was your message?"

"Tell him it's Terri. And it's important. And hurry up,would you?!"

"Right away,miss. Please hold."

About 5 minutes later,Trunks' voice came over the phone,and he did not sound happy to say the least. "Hello?"

"Trunks,darling,it's me. You haven't called me for so long that I-"

He sighed. "Terri,I thought I told you I didn't want to see you for awhile. What's the emergency?"

There was careless laughter on the other end. "Oh,Trunks..when will you learn? There IS no emergency,dear,I just wanted to speak to you."

"What?! Do you have any idea how important that meeting was for me!"

"Meeting,shmeeting. I don't care. I want to talk about us. How about-"

"TERRI!" He sounded really angry,"Get the hell out of my life,okay? Because as far as I'm concerned,we're through!"

She froze. Regaining her composure,she spoke icily. "It's that kid,isn't it? Pan? That bitc-"

"Don't you dare talk about Pan that way,or I'll-"

"Or you'll what? I'm afraid you've begun to fall for your little friend. I thought I might give you another chance. But now,Trunks,you're going to find out what I can do-the HARD way." And with that,she hung up the phone.
------
Trunks tiptoed through the front door quietly. He wanted to surprise Pan,but he didn't think she would be up this late. He reached her room,and tiptoed next to her. She looked so sweet and innocent that he didn't want to wake her,but he had to.

"Pan chan,wake up." he shook her arm gently.

"Mmmm.." Pan mumbled and buried her head in her pillow tightly.

Trunks covered his mouth to keep from laughing out loud. "Panny..wake up. It's me."

Pan opened an eye sleepily. Realizing who it was,she bolted out of bed,blushing. "Trunks! What are you doing here?"

"What,I can't meet my girlfriend whenever I want to?" he teased.

"Sure you can. But I don't know WHY I would think it was a little bit strange for you to come creeping into my house at midnight?"

He laughed. "Oh,Panny," his face suddenly lost it's cheerfulness however,"Terri called me at Capsule Corp today."

Pan frowned. "What did she want now?"

"Just some attention,I would think. But..Pan..she spoke of getting even somehow,and that worries me about your...safety."

Pan rolled her eyes. "Trunks,you know I'm perfectly capable of taking care of myself!"

He smiled gently,and took her hand in his. "I know you are..but it still worries me. I swear that I'll always be there for you and take care of you until the day I die."

Pan kissed him on his lips softly. "Trunks,you don't have to make promises like that-"

"But Panny,I want to." He said,kissing her back.

She sighed as she fell into his arms,thinking of Terri and what she could do to be with Trunks again.

A/N: Yes,I know I said Terri's Plan would be explained in this chapter..but I couldn't cuz I had to explain stuff a little more. I promise the next chapter will be Terri's Plan! Review!

~check out what I added!~

Trunks pops out of the fic again and gives me the thumbs up sign. "Whoo hoo! So far,so good. I'm still with Panny."

I smile. "Yup. But watch out in the next chapter.."

Trunks pauses. "Why?"

"Terri's back and she's gonna do something which isn't very nice.."

"Oh NO! I hate her,I hate her,I hate her!!!" He frowns and pops back into the fic.
