Trunks POV
Geeze, why did I have to go and get married. I don't even love my wife. I don't even consider her my wife. I even thought about objecting to this marriage when the minister had said if there were any objections to this marriage, and what not. But I stood there, letting my true love slip through my fingers. I walked out of the church holding my new bride's hand, and got into that limo, as I watched my love run out and look for me. And still I did nothing to stop the car. And now, it's been five months, five miserable months without seeing her. And now, I'm about to be a father. Great, just what I needed, knock up some woman I don't even care about. Why did I have to be such a coward and a jerk. I still remember that limo ride, as we pulled away from the church, whispering those words, hoping she would hear, while my wife is already trying to get my clothes off me. I knew then and there, it was gonna be a long life without Pan by my side.
Now comes the baby shower, at least I'll get to see Pan again. Hoping she'll be alone, and possibly waiting for me. But I can't think like that, I'm married now, not happily married, I'm never gonna be truly happy without Pan wearing that ring of mine. Why didn't I ask Pan.......

Finally, the day for the baby shower comes. I wait inside hoping that Pan will show. I'm extremely nervous, it's been so long. Will she have changed any? Will I look different to her? So many questions pop into my head. But they are all laid to rest when I finally see her. The most beautiful creature to ever walk this planet, graces me with her appearance. I don't care that mom or dad or even bra or goten showed up, just Pan, my sweet Pan. I stayed away for the most part, trying to think of what I would say to her. Plus I didn't want to go near my father, as he walked to her as she was mocking him. He then started to yell at her, she didn't seem to mind him at all, so I stayed away, not wanting to embarass myself or Vegeta today. He then soon stopped yelling and leaned against the wall next to Pan. It was amazing, she looked more like him than I did. Same stance against the wall, same angered expression. They stood there for a minute or so before Pan was rushed by her old friends, Bra and Marron. So still I stayed away, I wanted to be alone with her, but couldn't find the right time. Then Goten whistles and stops everyone from talking. He talked about some mumbo jumbo crap about a new Z warrior or whatever, I was too busy thinking about Pan to hear. After Goten had finished talking, stupid windbag, go away why don't you. I mean he was my best friend and all, but sometimes I couldn't stand him. I saw Pan and Vegeta talking for a few minutes, but I wasn't close enough to hear. She then walked outside, perfect, I can go out there and talk to her, maybe even tell her how I feel about her. I waited a few minutes then silently walked out there. There was my goddess, sitting on the stoop. I gently placed my hand on her shoulder. She looked up at me, and instantly looked away. I had just missed her eyes, it had been a while since I saw her beautiful eyes. I was right there, why didn't I just come out and say it already.
"Hi Trunks," she had said a bit gloomily.
"Hey Pan, why are you out here," I was concerned about her, after all I loved her.
"Oh....I'm just thinking."
"About what?"
"About you, and your....wife."
"Why," I asked, hoping she would tell me that my "wife" wasn't right for me, and that she was.
"Because," her face not looking at mine yet. "Because you are going to forget about me, and all your time will be consumed with the new baby." She said as I saw a few tears come from her eyes.
"Oh, well, you see Pan," I wasn't sure how I was going to say it. I thought more along the lines of, I want to be with you always, and that I love you, but what came out was, "we don't spend any time together anymore because I have a family to think about. I have a new life ahead of me, That doesn't mean we'll stop being around one another, you're my friend, and we'll still spend time together. But I suggest you go look for someone, like I did...." Oh yeah, great advice, I don't even love the woman I'm with and I'm telling her to look for someone? I put my shoulder on hers and gently kissed her cheek. What soft skin she had, she might have been a tomboy, but still she had soft skin, and I loved it. If only it had been her lips I was kissing. I saw her blush, and then she looked at me a bit confused. "It's not healthy to be sad all your life Pan. Go out and have some fun with life, and look out for those you care about. At least you know I'm always here for you." Still I had not said what I wanted to say, why can't I just say it, plain and simple, I love you Pan. She looked at me with a smile and nodded. I nodded and stood back up. I walked to the door, "Come back in later ok? it's getting kinda late." Having said that, I hesitated and entered the house without telling her how I felt. Why was I such a coward, and I began to wonder if I would ever tell her how I felt
