Chapter 5 ~ Dinner in heaven or hell?

Pan was humming a song that she couldn't remember the words to, if she could, then she wouldn't be humming it, she'd be singing it. Pan dropped her many shopping bags on her bed and flopped down on it, she continued humming as she closed her eyes and thought to herself, 'Oooo! Life is grand! It's great to be alive, to wake up and to see the shining sun, the singing birds, the-"

Bra pushed Pan out of La-la land by pulling her up from her bed, "Pan? What's going on?"

Pan looked at Bra blankly, "Whatever do you mean, Bra?"

Bra had an annoyed look in her eyes, "You know very well what I mean, Pan, why are you acting so strangely? First you say you will shut Trunks out of your head, next you're going out to dinner with him!"

Pan smiled, "Forgive and forget, I always say."

Bra snapped, "You've never said that before!"

Pan shrugged, "So? People change."

Bra started growing angry, "Pan, what's going on, it's not fair leaving me in the dark about what's going on between you and Trunks, I am your best friend, you know."

Pan looked innocent, "Nothing's going on between Trunks and I, we're just friends."

Bra folded her arms, "Pan! Get this through your head! He doesn't know you are Son Pan! He probably is just hitting on you!"

Pan shrugged again, "What's so bad 'bout that?"

Bra laughed a cold laugh, "Oh, you know Trunks, the most he's ever taken a girl out was like, a week, he's like that, he dumps girls all the time, he can break a girl's heart without even blinking!"

Pan smiled and thought, 'That's why I am going to break his."

Bra snapped her fingers, "Are you even listening to me?

Pan shook her head, "Not really."

Bra yelled in frustration and stomped out of the room. Pan felt a little bad for ignoring Bra, but the feeling soon passed. She started humming again as she emptied her shopping bags. Piles of clothing appeared on her bed. Pan held out a baby blue vest and threw it in a corner, she needed to dress absolutely perfect for her 'date' with Trunks, the thought of revenge took over every corner of her mind as she rummaged through the piles of clothing.

Bra folded her arms across her chest, she was listening to Cheryl and Maria talk about some sort of nail polish remover. She glanced at the clock, it was almost 7 o'clock, her annoying brother would be arriving at any moment now, Bra sighed, she hoped Pan knew what she was getting herself into. The intercom buzzed and Maria ran to get the door. Her mouth dropped open in shock when she saw who was standing there, "Y-y-you're t-the C.C p- president, aren't you?"

Trunks shook his head, letting his violet bangs fall in his face, he brushed them aside and said, "Vice-president."

Maria looked like she was about to faint. Trunks looked into the room and called out, "Hello Bra, dear sister of mine."

Bra slapped her forehead, "You idiot! Why did you say that?"

Maria's jaw dropped, "HE'S YOUR BROTHER?!"

Trunks rolled his eyes, "Of course not, I'm her husband."

Maria's jaw dropped even further, and Trunks laughed, "I was being sarcastic."

Pan walked out of the bathroom, dressed simply in a pair of tight leather pants and a blood red scoop-necked t-shirt.

Trunks whistled, "Hey, you look great."

Pan smiled, "Thank you very much." She grinned, she knew Trunks inside and out, he gets tired of girls who falls for him too easily and those who play hard to get. That's why she was going to do neither.

"Bye Bra." Pan waved.

Bra gave a little wave, "I hope you have a good time."

Pan smirked and thought to herself, that I will.

As Pan and Trunks flew to their restaurant in Trunks' 'new' hovercraft, since Bra has 'taken' his old one, Pan asked Trunks, "So? Where are we going?"

Trunks smiled a mysterious smile, "Heaven."

Pan didn't say anything back and Trunks stared at her with those deep, cerulean eyes of his, "Have I told you that you have a cute nose?"

Pan giggled, "No."

Trunks smiled, "Well, you do."

Pan sighed, oh, how she used to swoon at those eyes of his, and how her knees were weak and shaky when he would give her a compliment, funny how she didn't feel that way anymore.

The rest of the trip to 'heaven' was in silence. And if it wasn't Pan, couldn't remember what else she said. The only thing on her mind was how much she hated Trunks. . .

They arrived in front of 'heaven' and Pan saw that it was indeed Heaven. Aside from the name, there was silver mist drifting around in the restaurant. Pan noticed that she couldn't see her feet through the mist. Trunks lead the way up a spiral staircase that was meant to look like clouds. Pan gasped when she reached the second floor, there were shiny glowing stars everywhere! On the walls, hanging from the ceiling! And even on the floor! The floor was out of glass and there were random stars painted on the glass. Pan felt like she was actually in heaven! Aside from the fact that she had an evil revenge plot in her mind.

Trunks said softly, "So, do you like it?"

"I love it! Everything is just so-so heavenly!" Pan smiled.

Trunks laughed, "Well, you're the 'heavenly' type."

Pan smiled, "Thank you."

They sat down in an large round table and Pan suddenly noticed there was no one else on the second floor, "So Trunks? Did you rent this whole floor just for me, or is this restaurant just not too popular."

Trunks smirked, "Just for you, of course."

Pan smiled again, yup, she knew Trunks from the inside and out, this was going to be a piece of cake.

Trunks opened the menu, glanced through it and put it back down, "What would you like?"

"I'll have whatever you're having." Pan ran her hand through her hair, letting a few strand fall over her face.

Trunks frowned, "That might not be a good idea."

"Why not?" Pan was still playing with her hair, obviously taunting Trunks.

"Well, I eat quite a lot." Trunks said.

"So do I." Pan folded her hands daintily across her lap.

"Alright then." Trunks called a waiter and said, "We'll have two of everything."

The waiter, who had a corny French accent looked confused, "Excuze me, sir?"

Trunks nodded, "You heard me, two of everything."

The waiter frowned, "Are you sure, sir? Zat is a lot of food."

Trunks was beginning to grow impatient, "Of course we are sure!"

The waiter raised an eyebrow, "Alright, zen, zees order might take longer since it is very larze."

Trunks nodded and shooed the waiter away. Pan sighed, he really was a spoiled brat, wasn't he? She had never noticed before.

Trunks turned back to Pan and smiled, "Now, where were we?"

Pan twirled her finger in the air, "Where do you want us to be?"

Trunks gulped. And Pan tried very hard not to laugh, if only she brought a camera, the look on his face!

They talked about just about anything for the next half hour as they waited for their food to arrive. Pan was thinking about a nice pair of boots she saw at a nice shop the other day and why she didn't buy them. What Trunks was thinking about, I don't know and don't want to know.

The French waiter arrived with the soup, actually 24 bowls of it. Pan sipped her soup slowly while Trunks wolfed down his share. Pan sighed as she remembered how they used to have eating contests when they were younger, he always won, what she wouldn't give to have those good old days back. . .

After the soup was finished and the two were waiting for the next course fit for an army of kings, Trunks asked again, "So, what are you planning to do when you finish school?"

Pan said softly, "I've always wanted to be a zoologist."

Trunks raised an eyebrow, "Really? You look more like the model type."

Pan smiled, "No, my dad is a scientist, I guess I have to follow in his footsteps."

"My dad is a alcoholic alien." Trunks leaned back on his chair, "I'm glad I don't have to follow in his footsteps."

Pan drew a sharp breath, he was part alien too! And so was she! How could he insult the Saiya-jin race like that?

"Anyways, have you any siblings?" Trunks asked casually.

"Nope, I'm an only child." Pan wished she brought her gameboy or something, Trunks was being an idiot and boring.

Apparently, Trunks could tell because he stopped leaning against his chair and whispered to Pan, "Wanna know a secret 'bout Bra?"

Pan leaned over closer to him and asked, "What?"

Trunks gave a crooked grin, "Did you know that she has a full length poster of Goten in the basement?"

Pan knew, but this gave her an idea, she screeched, "THE SON GOTEN?!"

Trunks looked startled, "Yah, um, you know him, right?"

Pan smiled, "Of course I do, he's only the hottest guy in the whole city!!"

Trunks raised an eyebrow, okay. . . so Goten has claimed his title, no biggie, he'll just have to go back and claim what rightfully belonged to him. "Wow, that's a pretty big responsibility."

Pan laughed, "Yep, girls drool over him."

An awkward silence followed, the waiter came again, this time with the rest of the food.

They ate in silence, Pan was thinking frantically, this date is going from bad to worse, how can she turn this around? Then she smiled, they were most happy when insulting each other. So why not start now?

"You sure eat a lot."

Trunks looked up, "Pardon me?"

"Don't you worry about getting fat?"

"Not really." Trunks said, "What about you? You've eaten just about as much as me."

"More, way more, actually" Pan grunted.

Trunks laughed, "Hah! No one can out eat me!"

Pan smirked, "Wanna bet?"

"Sure."

"Alright then" Pan looked thoughtful, "How about loser gets blindfolded for a half hour?"

Trunks looked puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"I mean loser puts on a blindfold and do whatever the winner says." Pan smiled innocently.

"Uh. . ." Trunks was beginning to have bad thoughts.

"Scared?" Pan teased.

"Of course not." Trunks grunted.

"Okay." Pan laughed, "Let the eating contest begin!"
