Chapter 9: Trunks?
Slap!
"Ow!" Pan removed the hand that was slung on her face. Bra definitely had some sleeping problems. She pushed her off and climbed out of bed. She stumbled to the window and opened the curtains. A giant, bustling city stared back at her. The ocean was like a picture from a T.V. It all looked incredibly authentic. But it was real. Pan gasped as the colors and people filled her vision. It really was different compared to Tokyo. Hundreds of brightly clad clothing and people were ants down below from their suite way up in the sky.
She grabbed a pillow from the lounge chair and threw it at Bra. She grabbed the other one and threw it at Marron on the other bed. "Whaaaaaaaaat, it's only...10:45. Pan, don't you have any consideration for others?"
"Come look at this view, guys!"
Marron got up and rubbed her eyes. She walked over to where Pan was still gazing, mesmerized, by the view. "Ya, that is really pretty. What are we planning to do today anyway?"
Before Pan could answer, Bra came over and said with her shoulders slumped, "What? I don't see anything."
Pan remembered Bra had probably already been to California and everywhere else Pan hadn't. Bra was unbelievably smart, and spent majority of her time pouring over books and research in her mother's lab. She was also a social butterfly, flirting with guys whenever the chance arose. Marron, on the other hand, was shyer than Pan or Bra. She didn't fight or spar at all. She kept to herself when she could, but when she hung out with her comrades, you truly see her wild self.
"Never mind," Pan said, releasing her thoughts. "I thought maybe we'd see the town today. You know, walk around, pick up guys, and..."
"Shopping!" The other two girls cried in unison.
Once everyone had dressed, Marron in a flowery skirt, Bra in a short jean skirt, and Pan in jeans and red spaghetti straps, they all made their way down to the lobby and stopped at a coffee stand by the door. Talking excitedly the chattering girls reached the pier.
"Hey!" Pan called, "There's Goten and what's her name again? Kathy? Kandy?"
"It's Kass," Marron said in a kind of dull tone. Pan had only a second to dwell on this peculiar act when Goten spotted them and they met up near the ticket stand to the rides.
"Hey guys, whatsup?"
"Not much, we're just out for a little sightseeing and shopping," Bra replied, her usual happy twinkle in her eyes.
"Hey Bra, you look great today, it's nice to finally see you out of the lab." Goten smiled, but Kass grabbed his hand in a kind of possessive way at the same time. She was what Pan would think of as a gold digger girlfriend, she just had that kind of feeling. Her obviously fake blond hair, one of those things only other girls seem to notice, high heels, and a shorter skirt than Bra.
"Uh, thanks, um, hey you guys are welcome to join us if you want," Bra replied, glancing at the possessive moment Kass had displayed so openly.
"No thanks, me and Goten are just going to hang out alone for a bit. So, if you don't mind." She pulled Goten as if to start walking, and the poor guy had no other choice but to follow.
"But, but..." These were Goten's last words, as Pan saw his eyes travel down to Kass's tight butt as she dragged him along.
Marron looked furious. "Bitch."
"I'll see ya later, Dad." Trunks had just finished morning training and had showered quickly and dressed. He planned to walk the streets today and grab some coffee at Starbucks, maybe even a little meal to counter his huge breakfast of hot cakes this morning.
Trunks didn't know it, guys never do, but he looked rather stunning after just training. His muscles still bulged and every girl's head turned to him, regardless if they already had a partner. Since Trunks failed to notice this, he also failed to notice the group of cute girls following him. One of them finally got the nerve to talk to him.
A red headed girl in tight white pants walked ahead of him so that she was in front of him at the street crossing, waiting for the walk sign. She pulled the old bend and snap, and reached down to get her lip gloss, revealing a lacy red thong halfway up her butt (A/N I hate that, don't you?). Getting up she "accidentally" knocked into Trunks.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! I wasn't watching what I was doing," she said.
"No problem," was all Trunks said. But the girl persisted.
"I'm Ashley. and you're...?"
"Uh, Trunks, nice to meet you."
"You're so polite, I like that in a man," she said in a rather sexy voice.
Trunks just blushed.
"Would you like to join me for lunch? I was just heading over to Starbucks for a nice, refreshing cup," She smiled, and even though guilty images of Pan kept crossing his mind, he still said yes.
"Great! Let's go!" Ashley grabbed his hand and they crossed the busy San Diego street.
Laden with bags, the trio stood at the very street crossing Trunks and Ashley had been at only 20 minutes before. Conflict glimmered in the future.
"Guys, I say we call it quits for now," Bra said, hefting her bags to her other arm.
"Ya, me too," Marron picked up her own bags from the ground as the walk sign flashed on.
"Okay, let's stop and get some lunch," Pan suggested.
They neared the quaint little coffeehouse and Pan thought she saw purple hair leaving a table to go inside.
Inside however, Pan saw no such hair. She set her bags down and let the other girls order for her. Nature called.
Marron ordered when purple hair caught her eye walking out of the men's bathroom.
"Trunks?"
Bra whipped around and mimicked her, "Trunks?"
"Hey guys, what's happening? Stopped in for lunch, I see. See you around." Trunks walked out the door.
"Wait, who would he be here with?" Something wasn't right. Bra went to peek out the window. Trunks was seated with a red headed girl that looked quite interested in him, by the way her fingers kept playing with his. "Oh my gosh, Marron, we can't let Pan see them!"
At that moment, Pan came out of the bathroom, wringing her hands with the excess water. "So what's for lunch?"
"Uhhh, we're still ordering."
"Well, I'll go get us a table outside."
Marron blocked her way out. "Ummm, well, me and Bra are kinda tired so we want to stay inside, in the air conditioning." She looked rather hopeful.
"Guys, it's beautiful out. C'mon I'll get us a table in the shade." And Pan went out the door, Bra and Marron after her.
What's eating them? Pan thought, but her thoughts were quickly wiped away by the scene before her.
"Trunks?"
I hope I'm not drawing this out too long, but I promise it'll be good. Sorry for not updating in a while, I had finals. You all know how that is. Well, I'm up and typing again, and since I'm on holiday break, a few chapters will probably make it to the internet in the next couple of weeks. Please keep on reviewing!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
