Chapter 5
~*~*~*~*~
Trunks walked into the living room where Makoto was cuddled up in a large blue comforter with Sanku, watching a scary movie. Her hands were gripped onto the comforter while her eyes were plastered onto the screen. Sanku didn't even see him enter the room. He decided to sneak up on Makoto and place a hand on her shoulder. She screamed and fell off the couch. Her eyes glared at Trunks as she chucked a pillow at him.
"You idiot!" He let out a chuckle.
"You missed the ending!" said Sanku. Makoto turned her head to screen to see the credits. She growled.
"You idiot!" She crawled back onto the couch and sighed.
"Mako-chan, can I sleep with you tonight?" asked Sanku looking at her with pleading eyes. She nodded.
"Sure thing. You think I would be able to make it up those creepy stairs with Trunks loose in the house?" He chuckled as they both turned off the tv, lights and headed up stairs with Trunks. They went into separate rooms where they went into dream land once they all hit the bed.
~FLASHBACK~
A woman in a dark green dress sat in a large chair with her legs swung over the side. A book in her hands while she read it with excitement. Another woman walked into the room and cleared her throat gently. The girl with emerald eyes looked up to see her mother standing there. Quickly she rose from her seat and bowed her head gently.
"Are you ready my daughter for your big day?" asked the woman whom looked at her with her light green eyes. A strand of brown hair touched her face where she quickly drew it back.
"Actually Mother, I am nervous. I have never met my fiancee nor know what he is like. I do not know what to expect of him." The woman smiled at her daughter.
"Do not worry. Just know one thing. You are the Princess of Jupiter, the future Queen, and only heir to the thrown. If any problems come about, just have me help you. Would you like to know where you are going for your wedding night?" asked Queen Jupiter.
"It would make me more comfortable about knowing."
"You will be placed away in the the honeymoon chambers at his palace. There will be no disturbances to you for two nights. Come with me my child and let us get you ready." She followed her mother out of the room.

A guard stood before them as they exited from their ship. Her future parents through marriage stood before them. The man looked ruthless with always that look that scared you to death. She grabbed onto her mothers hand with hers gently.
"Your daughter is so beautiful. I wish we could have had a daughter but, a son is always nice since I will get a daughter weather I like it or not. You may call me Bulmahn. I don't like the formalities," said a blue haired, blue eyed woman with a smile.
"Thank-you Bulma. Shall we have the wedding?" asked Queen Jupiter. She nodded.
"Please follow me. Everything is set up. The court is in order, the preist awaits along with my son. I believe he's pacing outside of the door. Soon he's going to to make a large hole in the floor," she giggled. They walked down the long halls until they looked to see a man pacing. Bulma stopped them behind a corner. She looked at her future daughter and smiled.
"We will be waiting for you. My son will treat you right. I can tell you have butterflies in your stomach. We'll be waiting for you both. The doors will be opened in five minutes. You have enough time to introduce yourselfs. Knock him dead," she smiled with her fingers holding Makoto's chin gently. She then practically pushed her out into a nearby wall and then ran off with Queen Jupiter. Slowly, she started walking toward the lavender haired man that was pacing across the floor. She froze once his blue eyes looked up at her. Like a reaction, she took a step back once he took a step toward her. Something or someone seemed to be pushing her forward. It stopped when she was in front of him. He took her shaky hand and kissed it gently.
"It is nice to meet you Princess Makoto," he spoke in a deep voice. She bowed her head gently.
"Nice to meet you Prince Trunks." He smiled at her gently which seemed to make her melt. Her knees where about to give out and she could feel it. Some how, he must have as well. He caught her just as they gave away.
"I can tell you are nervous as well." She nodded.
"Very." His hand gently held up her chin.
"You have no reason to. I do not bite." She let out a little giggle. He turned his head at the sounds of the doors opening. He sat her on her feet and gently took her hand.
"No turning back." They entered and went up to the preist. They repeated the vows, and then he kissed her gently, sealing it. The two Queen quickly took them both by the arm and started leading them down many halls, twists, and turns until they came to two gold doors. They opened them, pushed the inside, shut them, and locked it.
"You better be nice," ordered both women and then walked away with the keys happily. Makoto stared at the door with her face filled with shock and fear.
'I am not ready for this,' she thought with fear. She felt herself turned around and his lips against hers, holding her gently but, she wasn't responding. He stopped and looked at his bride.
"What is wrong?"
"I cannot do this. I am not ready for any of this."
"How old are you?"
"Sixteen." He let go of her and started pacing.
"Great!" She turned him to face her.
"You two-faced imbecile!" She pushed him away from him. He grabbed her arm and turned her to him. She pushed him away from her. She walked away from him and sat on the couch. For the next two hours, both of them sat on the other side of the room in silence. There was a knock on the door which caused both of them to jump. Makoto went over and opened it. She was pushed in with a maid who took her into the bath room. Bulma walked in. They heard commotion in the bath room.
"Let go of my dress!" Something broke and the maid quickly ran out with her hair messed up.
"I will not touch that devil child!" She exited the room quickly. They heard the door lock. Bulma walked over to it and knocked on it.
"Makoto! Give me the dress."
"What do you think I am? A child!? I can take my clothes off perfectly fine! I'm not stupid!" She opened the door, shoved the dress out, shut the door and locked it again.
~*~
At midnight, Bulma handed her a night grown under the door. Makoto had already bathed for a long time and was dead tired.
"Will you come out now?"
"No."
"DON'T MAKE ME KNOCK DOWN THAT DOOR!" She looked to see the door open slowly. Trunks ushered Bulma to leave. She quickly left and locked the door. He looked to see her make it slowly come out, make it over to the bed where she crawled in it and closed her eyes. He crawled in next to her and gently moved the hair away from her face.
"I'm sorry for acting like a two-faced imbecile. I just expected you to be older. You look older than you told me. More like 18. Will you forgive me?" he asked.
"If you hold me I will." He kissed her forehead gently to have her turn to him with those emerald eyes that seemed to smile at him. He opened his arms for her where she buried herself in his warm embrace and chest. He held onto her like she was the only thing that he could live for. She smiled gently at him as she fell asleep.
~END FLASHBACK~
Makoto quickly sat up in her bed. She felt a cold chill run over her as she left her bed and went through the bathroom where she entered into Trunks' room. She crawled in with him where he placed his arms around her gently.
"Bad dream?" he mumbled.
"Flash back of the past." He nodded and kissed her forehead gently.
"Everything will be fine. Just go to sleep Mako." She cuddled into his arms where she was about to fall asleep only to have Sanku crawl in with them both where his eyes closed once he was in the middle of them both.
AN: Sorry for taking so long. Hope you like it so far!
