Author`s Note: Hi again! Big hugs to those of you who reviewed! You made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Hehe,well,sorry that this has taken me a while. I haven`t gotten my 5 reviews yet,but when I do,this will go up.

Also,I have this horrible urge to start my Gohan/Marron fic... But I want to finish one of my 4 fics that I`m already working on. What do you think? Ehh... well,enjoy the chapter and remember to review!

Marron and Trunks followed everyone back into the room and sat down. Marron was surprised when Trunks wrapped his tail around her`s.

Trunks broke the slightly awkward silence."Alright,we all know what`s gunna happen,so lets just get it over with. Goten,take Bra somewhere slightly remote and kiss her because everyone in here knows that you want to."

Goten looked at Bra and opened his mouth to say something,but no words came out. He stood shakily and he and Bra left the room.

Pan looked at Trunks and raised an eye brow."Now what? This game is dead now." She sighed. "I`m going to call Uub." She noticed Marron`s raised eyebrow."What? I can`t help it! He`s hot!" Pan giggled before walking out of the room.

Marron sighed and laid down on her stomach,her tail still tightly tangled in Trunks`. A million stupid little nagging thoughts were running through her mind. This wouldn`t work out,as much as they tried to make it,she knew it wouldn`t.

"What are you thinking about?" Trunks asked softly. He scooted over to her and laid down next to her.

She opened her eyes and sighed again."This won`t work,Trunks." She didn`t look at him,but she could feel his gaze resting on her.

"We could at least..." He started before she cut him off.

"No,it wouldn`t work. I`m just a girl...nothing special..and you`re the prince. We`re two different people from two different places with too big of problems."

"Marron.." He lowered his voice a lot." I know we don`t get along very well... But I really like you. If you think I`m just going to give up... You`re badly mistaken."

She looked up to meet his alluring gaze. He had one eyebrow raised and he was smiling very sexily. He moved his hand and touched her lips gently with his fingers.

He was breaking down her walls one by one,and neither of them knew it.

"Marron. You`re a stubborn little pain in my ass... and it`s a total turn on. I won`t accept you turning me down again. Give us a chance."

She looked at him,a fire in her eyes that burned into his soul. "It would never work Trunks." She lowered her eyes and rested her head on her crossed arms. "I can`t just try things like this. There`s quite a bit about me that you don`t know."

He laid on his stomach next to her and put his face right next to hers. "I would know if you would give me a chance and tell me." He put his arm around her waist and pulled her to him. He positioned her face and brushed his lips against hers once more.

Marron kissed him back,but not with the passion that he held. He couldn`t do this to her-it was too painful for her to turn him down. She broke the kiss and rested her head on his chest.

She felt him sigh as he put his hand on her back and clutched him to her. She closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep,soon followed by Trunks.

"Marron.. Marron,wake up!" Goten whispered as he gently shook her. "C`mon,you have to work today and then we have your doctor`s appointment."

Marron blinked her eyes open and noticed that Trunks was still clutching her body to his. She slowly wriggled out of his grip and stood. "Thanks G." She whispered before she walked into the bathroom to shower.

She threw her work shirt over her head and quickly pulled her hair into her two pony tails. She ran into Pan`s room and glanced at the clock. She had just enough time to do her make up and have G get her to work.

When she walked into Goten`s room,she noticed that Trunks was still passed out on the floor,but now he was sprawled out where they had once been. "You ready?" Goten asked her,breaking her concentration on Trunks` most prominent facial features. "I`ll tell him you said goodbye." Goten smiled sympathetically.

Marron forced a small smile. "Thanks. Lets go though." With that,they left,after Goten scribbled out a note on where he was and that he would be back in a little while.

They climbed into the car and Marron turned on the radio. Goten reached over and shut it off. "What`s up,Mare? You`re all weird this morning."

Marron but her bottom lip. "Trunks wants to try being my boyfriend or something like that. But I have ... my problems and so forth. That and the whole arranged marriage shit that my mom and dad got me into." She sighed.

"Do you like Trunks?" Goten asked as he kept his eyes on the road.

"I don`t know. We don`t get along... So I shouldn`t like him... But it`s almost like I love to fight with him and I like to give him evil looks. I guess it`s kind of like a grammar-school type of thing,ya know?"

Goten smiled. "Yeah,I know. But he`s the prince. If he decides that he wants you,chances are,that he`s get you... arranged marriage or not."

Marron sighed. Why did things have to be so complicated? "So,did you and Bra have a good time last night?" She asked with a sneaky smile on her face.

Goten almost blushed."Yes,a very good time,actually. She isn`t very shy when you break her out of her little shell."

Marron laughed as the pulled into the mall where she worked. "Well,G,what time will you be picking me up for my doctor-thingy?"

"I`ll pick you up at 1500. I haven`t decided if we`ll fly or not,I`ll have to think about it."

She got out of the car and leaned in the window."Thanks for the ride G... And tell Trunks some of my secrets... just not the dark ones that could imprison me or you." She grinned as he nodded and waved goodbye to her.

She turned and walked into the mall. She smiled at the faces of people that she had come to know since she had started working there. Ton worked at the electronics booth and Mi worked at the ice cream shop next to where she worked.

As she walked into the back room,she could taste Trunks` kisses again. 'Damn.' She thought. This was just what she needed to help her think about something else. She sighed as she walked out onto the floor to clock in and start her day.

Trunks had woken up and jumped in the shower. Pan and Bra had obviously beat him to it,since there was little hot water left and he had to settle for lukewarm water.

He had been upset when he realized that Marron was gone,but not mad because she had a place in society to go to work and he couldn`t get upset over that.

When he got out of the shower,Goten had just gotten home and was fixing himself something to eat. Trunks wandered into the kitchen and sat down across from Marron.

Goten didn`t look up from his plate of something that looked like eggs. "I have something I need to tell you about Marron. Actually,a few things."

Trunks raised his eyebrow."Alright then,let`s hear it."
