December 9th
Boys are so dumb. Trunks went home the other day, but he should be back tomorrow. He told me he had to tell his mum and see if she had any ideas about that we should do.
We lets see: we should not have had sex and we should not being telling people about this yet. Bulma is going to loose so much respect for me out of this.
I looked around my room. It was a teenager's room; band posters on the wall, shit under the bed, dirty clothes on the floor. I'm not ready to have a baby. I won't be ready for about another five or so years.
I walked downstairs and let my body fall limply onto our couch. Mum was out being... mum. No big changes there. I was alone again. Me and whoever it was that was growing in my stomach.
Then it hit me; I couldn't call my baby 'it' or 'the baby' until it was born. I needed to think of a name. For a girl... Marina? No, I hate a girl named that. Maybe Jennifer. Nope, too popular.
The phone rang and I reluctantly answered it, fearing that it might be my mum or one of her friends.
"Hello?"
"Maz, hey it's me." Trunks didn't sound too happy, but he didn't sound too distraught either. Something was not right with this picture.
"What's up?" I didn't really want to talk to him at the moment. I guess you could say I'm still a little bitter about being pregnant even though it's not entirely his fault.
"I talked to mom..." He paused, I think for emphasis or something like it. " And she wants you to come out here and see us."
I didn't understand. "Why?"
"Dunno. Just said it would probably be good for you to take a break, come out, and see everyone out here."
"She wasn't...mad?" I asked reluctantly; I didn't really want to know the answer, but my mouth has a tendency to do whatever it wants.
"She didn't really want to talk about it. Said something about needed to talk to Dad and ChiChi or something. I'm not sure. Have you told anyone yet?"
Yeah, great way to put the limelight back on me, buttwad. "No... Not yet." I didn't even want to think about telling anyone yet. However... " I think we need to think of names though."
Silence for a moment... "I already thought about a couple."
Oh no, I knew where this was going. I am stopping the whole running gag about undergarments right here and now. "Sorry Trunks, no child of mine will be named after any of the clothes that I keep in my top drawer."
I swear I could almost hear him grinning.
"So that's where you keep them, huh? I'll hafta keep that in mind. But on a serious note, I did think of some names. I was thinking along the lines of Catherine or Katarina if it's a girl and Jason or Barry if it's a boy."
"I don't like Jason or Barry...they're too...commonplace. I like Catherine though. I thought of a couple names too. For a girl, Emily or Bianca and for a boy Marius or Alex."
"Hmmm... I don't like the name Alex; I knew a gay kid named Alex. I've never heard of Marius though. I like it."
"Then it's settled. If the baby is a girl, it's Catherine. If it's a boy, it's Marius." I was quite pleased with the outcome of the names. Katerina reminded me a stripper name, which I have a feeling is where Trunks found it.
"Ok then. I'll be back out there sometime tomorrow to pick you up, so see if someone can give you a ride to school, kay?"
"That's fine, I'll just see if Panny can pick me on her way."
We said out goodbyes and I hung up the phone. I really am pleased with the turnout of the names. I was terrified that he would suggest Trunks Jr. or Vegeta the second. I dunno.
Now I just need to tell people. But who first? I'm not worried about telling Mum. I doubt she'll even care. I need to tell Panny and Uub though. And I need to tell Videl, because she's really the closest thing I've ever had to a mum.
She's going to be so disappointed in me. Which, overall, is much worse than her being mad. Do ever remember when you screwed up as a kid and your parent was just like 'I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.'? Well, I know it hurts a lot more.
I picked up the phone and began to dial Panny`s number. After talking to Videl for about 5 minutes, it was decided that I would go over there for dinner tonight.
Wish me luck
