Hey everyone! OK well, one of the reviewers had a few questions. No, none of the characters are saiyans. I haven't quite figured out the whole Gohan, ChiChi and Goku thing…I'm not sure if that even comes into the story so I haven't really thought about it. Really sorry about that…if I write another fanfic, I'll make sure that I think about the relations properly!! ^_^" Haha, I love these faces…*cough cough* sorry once again.
Oh yeah, one question from me. What's "My Sassy Girl"? I've never heard of it…but then again, I'm not Korean and I don't watch non-english movies…I hope I'm not being racist…
Well…I guess I should start writing, eh? Oh yeah…I need a disclaimer. I don't own DBZ nor did I have anything to do with its creation…and so on.
Ages- Trunks=23, Pan=21, Goten=22, Bra=20
Chapter 4: Reasons
The door opened and the place was full of flashing neon lights and a couple of the guys were trying to pick up girls. A tall guy with brown hair had answered the door and greeted Trunks with a slap on the back. "And you couldn't even tell me Trunks? I'm insulted!" he handed over some plastic cups filled with beer.
"Tell you what?" Trunks shouted over the music as Pan and Trunks followed the brown-haired guy inside.
"What do you mean? You've been dating Pan for a month and you couldn't even tell me! Or was she so ugly that you just didn't wanna embarrass yourself? Eh?"
Pan tapped the guy on the shoulder and said in a sweet voice. "Are you dating someone?"
The guy gulped and shook his head. "No way babe. I've been waiting all my life for someone like you to come along."
"Awww…that's so sweet! Pity I'm already taken then."
"Who you with?"
"This gorgeous lavender-haired guy right here." Pan smiled and took his arm. "And next time you think about calling ME ugly, you better make sure I don't here it! You arsehole!" Pan threw her beer in his face and stalked off.
"Shit. Sorry man…I thought you knew she was there…" Trunks helped his friend clean himself up.
"I didn't even notice her man! Next time introduce me to people would ya?"
"Sorry Billy. Just as a warning, she's a vicious lil' girl, so be careful around her."
"How can you put up with her? Or are you the guy with the mysterious powers that can calm her malicious powers down."
"Uh…she woke up on the wrong side of the bed today?"
"Lame excuse mate."
"She's not that bad…"
"She sounded nicer on the phone, though kind of flirty. Make sure you keep this one hooked, she's a babe even if she is evil." Billy punched Trunks arm and walked away to join a crowd of girls. "Hello ladies!" Trunks heard Billy yell to them as he walked away to find Pan.
Trunks found Pan chatting to Rachel and had a sudden thought. Wow…she's beautiful. Wait, what am I talking about? She's a devil! Trunks walked up to Pan and Rachel. "Hey Pan, hey Rachel. Pan, I was just wondering whether you'd be kind enough to dance with me." He bowed to over-exaggerate things and Pan's eyes slimmed, whilst Rachel watched with despair.
"What? Dance with you? You must be-" Pan cut herself off, remembering that they were meant to be 'together'. "Oh, sure honey. I'd love to." She accepted Trunks hand and followed him to the dance floor. He has a really strong grip…I like it. Pan! What are you thinking? You hate this guy!
Trunks and Pan danced with each other until the song ended. Then a slow song came on and the two looked at each other with disgust. If we don't hold each other close, people will guess we're not together…crap. At least I can find out why she's doing this I guess… and it'd be nice to hold her close to me. I've gone mad. I actually wanna hold this devil close to me. Trunks, what is wrong with you? Pan was about to walk away when Trunks grabbed her hand. "Don't you wanna dance anymore?"
"I don't feel like it." Pan said and tried to pull away, but Trunks still held her.
"Just one dance and then you can do whatever you want and I won't give a damn." Trunks smiled.
"Fine." Pan said, rolling her eyes in the process. Trunks held her waist and let Pan rest her head on his chest. Pan smiled. This actually feels nice.
"So why are you doing this?" Trunks muttered.
"Doing what?"
"Pretending to be my girlfriend."
"Because…well, firstly I need somewhere to stay. Secondly, you're so easy to beat up. And last of all, it's funny to watch you pretend to be my boyfriend." Pan smiled.
Trunks pushed Pan away a little bit and looked down at her. "That's all?"
I like you too. No I don't! Where did that come from? "Yeah, what else do you expect?"
Trunks frowned. "I could dump you right now."
"But your friends would say you were an idiot for dumping such a gorgeous girl wouldn't they? And Rachel would start hitting on you again and you'd actually have to tell her that you don't like her." Pan grinned. I actually feel kindda bad…this is so wrong; I can't feel guilty about THIS!
"I never said I didn't like her." Trunks replied flatly.
"You implied it when you refused to go out with her."
"Maybe I will go out with her."
"Doubtful Trunks, very doubtful."
Trunks turned around and walked away from Pan. She watched Trunks leave her and was a little shocked. Why'd he do that? Did I do something wrong? Pan shrugged and went back to Rachel.
Trunks sat outside and rested his head on his hands. He pondered over his thoughts and had a conversation between himself for a while. Eh? What was all that about Trunks?
So she's using you…at least she's pretty. Did you expect her to actually LIKE you? Get real! I swear she hates your guts!
But the question is- do you like her? I personally think you do-
No way! I so do not like her. She's evil and exists for the sole purpose of making my life miserable.
But is she really making your life miserable?
I guess not…but she's still evil. She's only ruined my social life and made my friends think I've manage to pick up a babe for my girlfriend.
But you like her anyway, you'd let her get away with that.
I don't like her! Why can't you get that through your-
Trunks, this is stupid…you're more or less talking to yourself.
Trunks grunted and stood up. He stretched his back and walked back inside. Pan was having a drink and chatting to a guy from Trunks's Programming class.
"Hey Pan? Listen, I'm gonna head back home. You coming?" Trunks ran a hand through his hair and sighed. I should just dump her now. Make life simpler. If only…
"What? Oh, hey Trunks. Daniel, this is Trunks, my boyfriend. Trunks, this is Daniel. You're going home now? What's the time?"
"Hey Trunks, we already know each other from our Programming class. It's about 12…" Daniel said, checking his watch.
"Really? That's a bit early to be leaving a party…" Pan hesitated.
"If you wanna stay, you can. I'm heading home though, I think someone put some bloody strong alcohol in my drink."
"You okay? I'd better take you home…you don't look to good." Pan smiled at Daniel. "It was nice meeting you Daniel. I'll see you in uni some time." She took Trunks's arm and they left the party.
"If you like him, then hurry up and break up already." Trunks said with a frown.
"I don't like him though." Pan sighed and Trunks snorted.
"Yeah whatever. Let's just go home, or should I say let's go back to my place." Trunks shook Pan's hand from his arm and walked off, leaving Pan to follow him.
He's pissed. Pan thought to herself and followed Trunks to the train station.
Alright…I was running out of things to write, so I'm sorry if it's not that great. Wellz, I hope you guys didn't think this chapter was that bad! . Thanx for reading this and I hope you guys have a really good time doing whatever you're doing! Next chapter SHOULD be about why Trunks is so pissed and whether he really does have feelings for Pan…and maybe even whether Pan has feelings for Trunks! (If I remember! =P)
Ok, thanx a lot! Lotsa luv,
dark-assassin xoxo
