The Depth of My Love

Marron woke up to a soft kiss on the cheek. Her eyes fluttered open to reveal Son Goten. She smiled slightly. "Goten, what are you doing here?"

He stroked her hair. "To say good morning. Mornin' love," he whispered.

She pushed him aside and got out of bed. "I thought we discussed this. I thought we both understood that I don't want to get involved right now, 'Ten. Don't you remember?" She walked out of her bedroom and into the bathroom. "Turn around." He did so, and she stripped her pajamas and got into the shower.

When Goten heard the water start, he turned around. "Marron, babe, I wouldn't break your heart and you know it. Just give me a chance. Please?"

Marron poked her head out of the shower. "Goten, you know I would love to. But I just can't bring myself to do it. I can't go out with you. I'm sorry," she said, bringing her head back into the shower and continuing to wash her hair.

Goten sighed. "Fine, Mar, but you know I'd go to the edge of the earth for you."

Her head came back out and her eyes twinkled. "Prove it."

Three hours later, Marron stepped out of her red Corvette and headed up to the Briefs' mansion. Before she could knock, Bra flung the door open and pulled her inside.

"Okay Marron, we've been waiting for at least ten minutes! Now get your behind in here and tell us what you're planning in that devious little mind of yours!"

Marron laughed. "Well someone's excited. I'm coming, I'm coming. It's not so easy to walk in these shoes." She gestured to her three-inch black boots.

Bra took her hand and dragged her into the living room, where Trunks, Goten, and Pan where sitting around with sodas in their hands. Marron waved slightly.

"Hi guys," she said. She took a seat next to Goten on the couch and took a can of Coke off the coffee table.

Goten put an arm around Marron and kissed the top of her head. "Hey babe. Now I'm ready to hear your plan."

Marron took a sip of her soda and began. "Well, as you all may have heard, I have refused to date Goten because of my fear of getting my heart broken. So this morning, when Goten told me he'd go to the end of the earth for me, I thought about a way for him to prove it to me. Now Goten, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. It may be a little extreme," she warned.

Pan laughed. "Exactly how extreme? What are you going to do to my poor Uncle Goten?"

Trunks smirked and Goten got a worried look his eyes.

"Well," Marron continued, taking a deep breath, "Goten, would you be willing to move to America for six months? And if I find you're loyal to me for that time, I'll know."

Goten's eyes widened. "Six months? That's a long time, Mar. And especially so far away. But I said I'd go to the end of the earth for you, and that's exactly what I'm going to do. I'll do it Marron," he announced confidently.

Marron smiled. "Really? Thanks a lot Goten. This means a lot to me." She gave him a hug.

"Six months! I'm not going to see my favorite Son sibling for six months?" Bra screamed. She ran over to him and threw her arms around his neck. "We have to throw you a party. I'll plan it! Who wants to help?"

"I'll help!" Pan exclaimed. "We need decorations, and food, and soda, and beer, and presents. Oh presents! What should I get you as a going away present, Uncle Goten?"

Trunks laughed. "Great. Here comes the party squad. You two will take any excuse to throw a party."

Marron leaned her head on Goten's chest. "Thanks again, Goten," she whispered.

"Hey, I said I would do it, and I'm going to," he whispered back as Bra and Pan excitedly continued making party plans.

~~~~~~

The next day, Sunday, Marron called Pan at noon. "Hey Pan, how would you like to take a very long trip?"

"What do you mean Mar?" Pan asked.

Marron twirled a piece of hair around her finger. "Well the whole point of Goten's trip is to see if he can be loyal to me. But unless I go to America, I'll never know the truth. So I need a sort of undercover agent. Would you do me the biggest favor in the world and go to America in disguise?"

"Are you serious? Would I ever! I'd love to go, get away from my parents and spend six months in a foreign country. When do I leave?"

~~~~~~

A week later, everyone (and I mean everyone) stood at the terminal at the airport. Goten was hugging everyone, a duffel bag on his shoulder.

When he got to Marron, she was crying. "You don't have to do this, 'Ten. You really don't. Please, don't do this."

He stroked her hair. "No, Marron, I'm going to do this. But I promise I'll call you every chance I get. Now I really have to go. I'm going to call you when I get there, okay? I love you, my Marron. Bye." He gave her a hug and kissed her on the head gently. "Good-bye everyone. I'll see you in sixth months." And with one final wave, he boarded the plane.

Pan ran out to the terminal with overnight bags and suitcase in her hands. She had a blonde wig on and thin wire frames perched on her nose. She sported a long floral sundress and a floppy hat. Quickly, she gave her friends and family a final kiss, and got on the plane.
