Chapter 3- It Can't Be Happening

The next day at school, Kasama avoided and Trunks as best she could. She sometimes got a glimpse of them together in the halls, but she tried not to notice. She was too embarrassed to talk to Nitzue.

At lunch, Kasama sat at the last table all alone instead of her usual spot. She ate her lunch fast and then hurried into the courtyard to find some place to be invisible.

After school, Kasama cried in her room again.

"I like him!" Kasama told herself sadly. "I like him and he doesn't like me."

Kasama cleaned out her locker for the next period swiftly. It was all part of her plan; since her locker was near Trunks' she would have to use hers fast in order to avoid him.

She turned around to see Trunks coming towards her not his locker. He looked nervous.

"Uh, Kasama," Trunks said nervously. "I, uh, need to talk to you. Um, how 'bout in the quad? After school?"

Kasama's heart shrieked with joy and fear. He likes you! One part of her overjoyed. No he doesn't! He just wants to make sure you don't mess things up with Nitzue! The other half of her told her.

"Okay," Kasama said slowly.

Trunks smiled his seductive smile and Kasama's heart melted.

"In the quad then. Bye, Kas!" Trunks said walking off.

"Kas?" Kasama said. She liked it.

In the courtyard after school, Kasama waited for Trunks. She had already missed her bus and she was beginning to believe Trunks was just tricking her.

She was about to get up and walk home, when she heard him yell.

"Kas!" Trunks yelled. "Wait!"

Trunks speeded toward her.

"Sorry I'm late, I just wanted to talk." He sat down next to her in the empty quad.

"About?" Kasama asked.

"Well," Trunks got uncomfortable again. "Nitzue said you liked me and I wanted to find out if it was true."

"She told you!?" Kasama yelled and buried he head in her hands. "She wasn't supposed to!" She blushed a deep red.

Trunks lifted her head up, blushing too. "I'm glad she told me Kas. I like you too."

"What?" Kasama said staring into his deep blue eyes.

"Yea," Trunks said and he leaned down to kiss Kasama.

Kasama pulled away. "Wait, I can't,"

"Why not?" Trunks asked.

"Because you haven't broken up with Nitzue yet. She would have called or paged me."

Trunks sighed. "I didn't have the heart to."

Kasama looked away from Trunks.

"I better be going," she said and stood up.

"Kas, wait, lemme' drive you home." Trunks offered.

Kasama nodded, "Fine."

In the car, Kasama and Trunks stayed silent.

"Kasama," Trunks said suddenly. "At least let me have one kiss."

Kasama looked at him, finally realizing the car was stopped.

"Just one," she said and she kissed him on the cheek.

Trunks smiled, "You always were a con-artist."

She smiled and kissed him again, this time on the mouth.

"I can't settle for one," She whispered and crawled daintily on his lap.

Trunks pulled her closer, their lips locked in a lustful kiss.

"Trunks," Kasama whispered in his embrace. "I really have to get home."

Trunks kissed her once more and said breathlessly, "Then get in your seat, I can't drive with you on my lap."

"I wish you could," Kasama said and crawled off.

"Me too," Trunks mumbled and started the engine.
