**************************************************************************

Lunch Time...

" Mmm..fishsticks.....*drools*"

"What can I get for ya, sweetums?" asked the cafetaria lady.

"Hmm..let's see. Well, fishsticks would be nice, as a matter a fact, they're all I need!"

"Well...actually hun..."

"...Come on, pile 'em up! I want a guiness record on my plate!...c'mon!!!" I yelled anxciously.

"Sigh... as I was saying sweets...we're all out of fishsticks!"

"....Wwwwwhat!! No!! That won't do! That won't do at all!!!!!!" I

"Yea!...the last few were just given out to that young man over there a few minutes ago!" she said while pointing to a familiar face... it was Trunks!

"Thanks lady!" Then I stormed over to him and laid down the law! He was just about to take a bite into his sub sandwich when....

*slam* I slammed my fist against the table. "Hey BUDDY!"

".... o_0 ' ...??.....uh......c..can I....help you...with something?" he said in a confused tone.

"Hmph..I dunno?...you tell me! Those are fishsticks in your plate...aren't they?"

"Huh?..." Trunks eyed his food. He saw two fishsticks, one half eaten on his plate. "Uh yeah, I guess. Would you like s..." he looked up and his eyes met mine. "..hey...it's you!"

"Huh?" Psheeh! Well great of him to Finally notice me! I thought. "Uh..yeah, t-that's right!"

"Hey kiddo..keepin' outta trouble I see!"

"Erm...about the fishsticks!!!! You're almost finished!! Can I please have at least one of 'em! C'mon don't make me beg" I begged.(lol) Yep..that's how much I loved 'em! Didn't care how foolish I looked! As long as I got what I wanted! ^_~

"Aheh..wow..is that all! Man..." he finished his half-eaten one and picked up the last whole one to give to me. "Here you go!"

He had his hand outstreched toward my direction with the strip in his grip. I felt kind of guilty taking it..there was no need for me to be so bossy to him at all..he was very kind. ^_~

"Thank you." I said with a smile. As I finished my fishstick I became that much more satisfied. "Mmm...yummy in the tummy! *sluRp!* " Then I remebered who I was with! "Gasp! Please tell me I did not just say that outloud! I thought. "Ugh..I am such a dork!"

"Hmph...*smiles*...cute." he says.

"Gasp! He just said I was cute!" I thought. "Maybe I should ask if I could sit with him..sit with a senior....how totally cool! ^-^ !!!

"*Ahem*..uh...do you mind if I uh....s..sit...here?"

"...um..well actually...."

Gasp! Wait ago Pan-chan..he's going to say no! You just HAD to open your big mouth didn't you! You just HAD to volunteer to sit your big freshman butt down!!!..... "Oh..that's ok..you probably have friends coming, so..."

"...yeah, I do."

My heart sank. "..I'll leave."

"Sigh..No, wait a minute....you more than welcome to stay and eat with us if you'd like..it's just...."

"Gasp! Really?? Thanks!! You're too kind!" I bowed. I made sure I took the seat right next to him! ^.^ Soon after I sat down the remaining seats around us filled up with some of Trunks' so-called..."buDDiEs"

"Hey man..what's up?"

"Heeeeey...Trunks my man!"

Two boys greeted Trunks.

"Hey, Jesse... Ryu. How you guys been?"

I couldn't of felt more out of place.

"Who's the kid?"

"Yea...what's going on?..ya kid watchin' or sumthin'?" The two of them joked, contributing to my discomfort.

"........" I really wanted to leave.

"Come on you two..knock it off! She's just a freshman." he answered.

"huh?".....I didn't know whether to be happy that Trunks was sticking up for me, or sad that he only thought of me as a little freshman!

"Am I hearin' right, bud?" asked Jesse.

"Yea..I'm with Jesse! What's the reason for you and dollface here!"

"..dollface?" I repeated.

"Your known to do a lot better than this...this isn't scoring many points on the richter scale if ya know what I mean!"

"Yeah, this is weak Briefs...even for you!...You're getting soft man!" added Jesse. Trunks was now annoyed.

"What's THAT suppose to mean!!"

"It means ditch the baby and let's go score off some real chicks! C'mon!" yelled Ryu.

"Gasp!" I had never felt so hurt in my life.

"The only babies I see around here are you two!" he yelled back.

"Us!!??" replied Ryu.

"You mind explaining?" added Jesse.

"You two are the same guys who if you can't get a date with a girl you really like don't go to school for at least a week out of the shame of being rejected!"

"He, he, he!" I giggled. The two boys glared at me.

"Um....s-sorry...*ahem*."

"Sigh...come on man, this is definitely killing our image, not to mention our reputation with the ladies!" explained Jesse.

"I still say she goes." said Ryu.

"Is that all you guys think about? Look, if she goes..then I go. Got it?"

"Dude..you can't be serious!" exclaimed Ryu.

"fine....FINE!. She...she could stay." answered Jesse.

"JESS!!"

"Ryu?" Trunks looked at his friend to see if he could get his approval.

"Sigh............whatever." he replied.

"Cool!....now..let's eat!" said Trunks as they continued on with their lunch.

"..........!!!Wow!!!!...0.0...was this really happening?" I thought. "Trunks stuck up for me!...a-a-and he won! .....WOW!! '' *gRoWL* Uh oh..that's my stomache!!! ^_^'

"Uh..can somebody..pass the fishsticks?.....please??" ^.~' *~
