Chapter 6

          'I can't believe that she took him back after everything he did to her,' Trunks thought as he reached the park that was a few blocks down from the apartment.

          "Mom was right…I shouldn't have waited so long…and now they're getting married," Trunks thought as he sat down on the bench and looked up at the sky.

          All of a sudden, Trunks doubled over in pain and grabbed his head in his hands, trying to stop the pain that he was feeling in him.  He was soon on his knees, grasping for breath, when he felt like he got the wind knocked out of him.

          'What…is this…that…I'm feeling…' Trunks thought as he opened his eyes and tried to see straight while trying to stand up at the same time.

          Trunks managed to sit back down on the bench, but the pain he was feeling was getting worse as he sat there.  Then the pain had subsided a bit and all he felt was fear when he closed his eyes.  While his eyes were closed, he saw an image that looked like Pan and he could only guess that what he was feeling was Pan's pain and her fear.

          'Pan…I left her alone…with…Derek,' Trunks thought as he quickly got up, ignoring the pain and fear he felt going through him and made his way back to the apartment.

          "After I propose to you, you now turn me down!" Derek yelled as he walked slowly towards her, knowing that she couldn't get away from him fast enough.

          "Derek…this was wrong…after what you did, I never should have taken you back," Pan said as she moved away from him.

          "You thought you were playing a game?  Seeing who could get you first!" Derek yelled as he made a move to punch her, but she quickly moved out of the way and dived underneath the dinning room table and as Derek fell, loosing his balance, she quickly got up and made her way to the front the door.

          Pan was almost there when two arms came around her and threw her to the floor, her head hitting the edge of the couch when she fell.

          "You are mine…and you accepted me!" Derek yelled as he walked up to her and picked her up from the shirt.

          "No…Derek…I'm no ones…especially not yours," Pan said as she slapped him across the face, only to have him punch her back, making her fall backwards on the couch and again, hitting her head on the table that was placed in front of the couch.

          Pan slowly got up only to be pushed back down onto the floor while Derek placed his foot on her back, preventing her from getting away from him.

          "Now, Panny…you have to behave," Derek said as he put some pressure on her back, causing her to yelp.

          Pan slowly opened her eyes and saw Derek, the gleam in his eyes and the smile that was on his face scared her even more than before.

          "Derek…please," Pan said, but she was pulled up roughly and was slammed into the wall.

          When Pan opened her eyes again, she saw that Derek was pulling back his arm, getting ready to punch her, but the blow never came as she saw Trunks run up behind him, pull him away from her, and started to punch the living daylights out of him.

          'Pan, please be alright,' Trunks thought as he quickly climbed the stairs and got out the keys to the apartment and opened the door to see Derek slam Pan against the wall and pull his arm back, getting ready to punch her.

          Trunks quickly made his way over to them, pulled him away from her and gave him the first punch in his stomach and the next one on his face.  As Trunks kept on punching Derek, he felt a hand on his arm that held him back.

          "Pan," Trunks said as he saw her face and saw how beated up she was, he quickly picked Derek up by the shirt threatening him that he would finish what he started if he ever saw him near Pan again and threw him out the door.  Trunks walked back up to Pan, took her left hand, slid off the ring and walked back to Derek, who was trying to get himself to get up.  Trunks put his foot down on his back, and tossed the ring at him, making another threat to him before he closed the door.

          "Pan, are you alright?" Trunks asked as they made their way to the kitchen to get some ice for her head.

          "…"

          "Pan?" Trunks said as he looked at her and saw how her she wasn't focusing straight.

          Trunks picked her up slowly in his arms and walked over to her room, getting some bandages and cream for her cuts that were on her face.  He carefully applied the cream and gently wrapped her head to stop the bleeding and gave her some aspirin along with water to take for the headache he knew she was going to get.

Pan slowly opened her eyes and saw Trunks' look of concern for her along with worry and anger.  "Trunks…" Pan said, before her world went black.

Pan slowly opened her eyes to the sun shining in her face.  She slowly turned away, her head pounding, and saw that Trunks was sitting uncomfortably in a chair, holding her hand in his.  Pan slowly smiled at the thought of how cute Trunks looked, even with a scowl on his face.  She giggled softly, but it woke up Trunks none the less.

"Pan…"

"Thanks, Trunks," Pan said as she slowly sat up, smiling a small smile at him.

"Pan…why didn't you tell me?" Trunks asked as he stretched in the chair and looked back at her, still holding on to her hand.

"Trunks…I wanted to tell you, but…"

"But what, Pan?"

"I was afraid of how you would react and I wasn't even sure about myself," Pan said, looking down at her comforter.

"Pan…I…I care about you…too much," Trunks said as he let go of her hand and leaned back in the chair.

"Trunks…"

"No…Pan…I was mad when I found out that you took that bastard back after what he did to you…and the fact that you said 'yes' only pissed me off more.  I'm sorry about how I reacted, but…I think of you more than just my roommate or friend, Pan," Trunks said, not looking at her.

"I…I don't really understand what it is that you're trying to tell me," Pan said, a million thoughts running through her head.

"What I mean to say is…I love you, Pan," Trunks said as he looked into her eyes and saw them brimming with tears at what he just said to her.

          'Great, now I've made her cry.  I knew she wouldn't return the feelings that I have for her,' Trunks thought as he let his gaze drop to the floor.

          "Trunks, I've got something to tell you," Pan said as she reached for his hand, her tears flowing freely down her cheeks.

          "…"

          "I love you, too, Trunks," Pan said as she leaned forwards and gave him a small kiss.

          As Pan started to pull away, Trunks quickly wrapped his arms around her and held her closer to him, giving her small kisses on her cheeks, jaw and neck.  Pan giggled as Trunks kissed a spot on her neck and she wrapped her arms around his neck, giving him a hug as he stopped kissing her.

          "Pan…"

          "Trunks…"

          They both laughed and leaned forward again, their kiss more passionate than their first and slowly, Trunks started to lie her down, not breaking the kiss.  Trunks held her tighter as she did a low moan from his touch and they both slowly started to break the kiss.  Trunks gave her one last kiss and rolled off of her, while Pan snuggled into him with Trunks wrapping his arms around her again, relishing in the warmth she brought to him.

          "Trunks…"

          "Hmm…"

          "Thanks," Pan said as she smiled up at him and closed her eyes.

          'I love you, Pan,' Trunks thought as he kissed the top of her head and closed his eyes, sleep overtaking them again.
