Chapter 4
"You are not going out tonight that late!" Gohan yelled.
"But DAD!!!"
"You can go out, but you should start at 7pm and be home by 10pm. ON THE DOT!"
"OK! OK! I'll go ring them then and reschedule." Pan ran upstairs and picked up the phone. She checked that no one was around, then dialled Trunks' number. Damm it! Bra answered. Well, better make a fake voice then…
"Hello. Is Trunks Briefs there?" Pan said in her fake male voice.
"Sure! I'll just go get him!"
Gullible Bra, she didn't suspect a thing. Pan thought
"Hello, Trunks Briefs here. How may I help you?"
"Trunks! It's me!" Pan whispered.
"Oh…Hello…Mr…Nap. What's up?" Trunks said, catching on.
"Change of plan."
"Family?"
"Yep. Anyway, I'll meet you in front of the shopping centre about 7pm, k?" She whispered, trying to hide the fact that she was talking to Trunks, in case her dad was listening.
"Sure, 7pm. That'll be fine. Casual clothes ok?"
"That's great. No use being uncomfortable."
"Yeah. Ok. 7pm. I'll be there. Thanks. I'll see you there then. Bye."
"Bye."
Pan hung up the phone and hugged herself on the inside. Still, no one suspected a thing.

Trunks was waiting for Pan when she arrived a little after 7pm. She must have flown as fast as she could to get there in time. She landed and ran towards him, stopping right in front of him.
"Hey"
"Hi…you look lovely tonight." Trunks took her hands and kissed her gently.
"Same to you." Trunks let go of one of her hands, and they started walking towards the shops. "We're not gonna tell anybody yet, are we?
"Nup, Dad wouldn't like it, and Mum and Grandma would say that I should be concentrating on my final exams." She looked up at Trunks, who's eyes were darting around, as if he was looking for someone.
"Looking for anyone?"
"Anyone that would know us and see us." His eyes continued to scan the area.
"There's not many people here, and no one that we know would be here anyway."
"We should still be careful." He realised that he was being WAY to conservative. Pan leaned up and whispered in his ear.
"That's what makes it so much fun!" Pan replied, and realised that she was being too much like herself when she was with Bra, but much flirtier. Trunks noticed.
She is so sexy when she acts like that, all flirty and stuff… He thought, and relaxed a bit. "So, what do you want to do?
"We could see a movie…or go shopping. I don't really care."
"Lets go shopping, there's no good movies on at the moment."
"That's fine with me. Let's go."
So for the next 2 hours they went strolling around the shopping complex. They didn't buy anything much, just a new brand of styling gel for Trunks and a new bandana for Pan.
It was 9pm when they left the shops, there was nothing left to see. Pan had another hour before she had to be home. Pan didn't want this night to end, and neither did Trunks. They decided to walk to the park and just relax on one of the benches. Over the course of the hour, they talked, and talked and talked, Pan lying against Trunks' chest and Trunks playing with her black hair.
Soon it was almost 10pm, and Pan had to go. She didn't want to be late home, cause if she was, her dad probably wouldn't let her go out for a while.
"I have to go now…again. Dad'll kill me if I'm late. " Pan was really upset. Trunks wrapped his arms around her in a big hug.
"Pan, we can always see each other, though it'll be really fun if we keep it a secret for a while, and don't worry about me, I'll be fine. Remember…" Trunks stared into her eyes, and she stared into his. "Your uncle is my best friend, and my sister is your best friend. We'll always have cover."
"Yeah, you're right. I HAVE to go now, ok?" They kissed for what seemed like a minute, then Pan started to raise off the ground. "Whenever I call you, I'll use that name that you made up on the phone today, k? Love ya, Bye." She kissed him again, then flew up a bit higher.
"Bye Pan…see ya soon." Trunks stared up at Pan, flying away at lightning speed. I'm so in love with you, Pan…you're so beautiful and smart, sigh. He stood up and started to fly home. Both of them were in a state of elation, and they didn't want to leave it.
