Author`s Note: Hey all,sorry it`s taken me so long (yet again!) I`ve been busy applying for editor positions and other gunky school junk. Then my car went and broke again and it made me so mad and then I cried...but now I feel better hehe. Anyways,I hope you all enjoy this chapter and thanks you to all of you who reviewed! Please continue to do so!

Marron turned away from Gohan and Pan,closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She hadn`t wanted to do something like that,but they wouldn`t let her get a word in!

She opened her eyes to see Trunks flying away as quickly as possible. Great. Just great. Now she wold have to talk to him too...even though she had wanted to have a 'special talk' with him. She looked down at the ring on her finger and felt the hot tears begin to burn her eyes.

Marron didn`t let her tears fall until she was out of Gohan`s sight and Pan`s sight. That was the last thing she needed right now: a pity party.

She walked to under a large tree of some sort and sat down before the sobs overtook her and shook her body violently.

She felt a strong hand on her shoulder and looked up into the shaking eyes of the root of a lot of her problems.

She locked eyes with him for a moment before deciding what to do. Instead of pushing him away like she meant to,she threw herself into his lap and sobbed even heavier.

Trunks wasn`t sure what to do at first,until he put his hand on her back and began to murmur soothing words. He felt so close to her,he was close to tears himself.

He felt like crying... He had no reason not to! He had just heard that the one person he cared about more than himself was dying and he had nothing that he could do for her.

A cold tear crept down his face and landed somewhere in the tangled mess of Marron`s golden hair. Her sobs subsided somewhat and she pulled back a little.

She looked up at him and had to use all she had to keep her bottom lip from trembling. "Trunks..." She mumbled,searching for the words. "I wanted to tell you... in... in a better way. You weren`t supposed to know yet."

"Marron... I wish you would have told me. I.."

"No." She shook her head,interrupting him. "There isn`t anything yo can besides act as if nothing has changed. " She felt another tremor coming over her. "This... this is why we wouldn`t work." She had lowered her voice to a whisper.

Trunks` eyes widened a bit after the words had left her mouth. Was she afraid he would stop wanting her because of that? "Come on." He stood and offered his hand to her.

She looked up at him through tear-stained eyes."Where?" She took his hand,despite her questioning.

"It doesn`t matter. Just somewhere where we can talk. I have things I need to tell you and I want to hear some things from you."

Marron half smiled. "So I take it I don`t have a choice?"

Trunks smiled."You got that right. We`ll fly." He scooped her up and took off in the sky. He couldn`t help but smile when he noticed she was gazing adoringly ahead. She wasn`t afraid? Most girls he used to take flying were terrified.

She looked up and met his gaze. He was looking at her with a strange glint in his eye,but she dismissed it for the moment.

They landed on a very small island that had just enough room for the two saiyjins,five trees,a sandbar and strange birds.

Trunks set Marron down gently and walked over to a tree before sitting down.

Marron looked around for a moment. "This place is beautiful." She said just above a whisper.

Trunks smiled."This is where I come when I like to be alone or think. I`ve been coming here a lot lately. Thanks."

Marron raised an eyebrow."And that`s my fault?" She questioned.

"Yes,your fault." He paused. "You puzzle me,Marron. You contradict everything I do or say and you still think you`re easy to understand." He smiled and shook his head. He stood and walked over to her before taking her hand. "Lets talk."

Marron allowed herself to be led back to the tree and sat down between his legs as he gently rubbed her back. "Well,what do you want me to say,Trunks?" She asked,almost helplessly.

"Well,I know you`re holding out on me."

She turned to face him and saw that strange look in his eyes again. "What do you mean?"

He smiled. "It was your ki,wasn`t it?"

Marron opened her mouth to reply,but no words came out.

"I thought so. I`ld never felt a females ki before. It`s quite arousing when you think about it."

"You... You`re not mad? Enraged?"

He smiled and shook his head. "No. I`m very intrigued. I`ve never met anyone like you Marron Chestnut." He took her hand and kissed it.

Marron blushed a modest shade of crimson.

"Now you tell me something...things." He grinned like a kid.

"Well...What would you like to hear from me?" She didn`t want to tell him too much,incase he should get grossed out.

"Will you give me a chance yet?" His face softened and became serious.
