Canto alla Vita: I sing to life

Chapter 9: This kind of love

It wasn't enough anymore. Things went from bad to worse as days went by. The wedding ceremony for Trunks and Nathalie was soon going to commence and Trunks felt nervous and troubled. He missed Ryanna terribly, like a part of his heart was cut from his body, cut up in a blender, and dumped in the ocean to be fed off of sharks and miscellany. tears threaten to fall from his eyes as he looked out of his bedroom window, waiting for his mother to come in and get him for the ceremony. He wore a uniform that his mother and maids had sewed for him. It was white with sewn on saiyan emblems and gold buttons.

His hair was slicked back, against his will, and he wore the Royal Crest around his neck. A knock interrupted his thoughts and sighing allowed the person to come in knowing it was his mother. "Hello Trunks, how are you feeling." "I feel stupid!" Bulma looked shock at his sudden comment. "What's wrong?" Trunks looked down to the floor and admired it for awhile. "I don't feel right. Like this shouldn't be happening." Bulma placed a small smile on her painted lips. "Trunks it's just jitters." "No it's not!" Trunks flung his hands to his slicked hair gripping them out of place.

"This shouldn't be happening! I don't know Nathalie! How am I suppose to spend the rest of my life ruling next to someone I hardly know!" Bulma frowned. "Trunks," she paused and made him look at her. "It's more than that isn't it?" Trunks didn't say anything but let a tear escape his eye. "There's something else wrong, I know it! Now what is it?" Trunks held back a sob and breathed deeply. He looked to the floor in shame as another tear escaped from his eyes. "I miss her." He mumbled but it was loud enough for his other to hear. "You miss who?" "Ryanna, I miss her mom." Bulma sighed and motioned for Trunks to sit down and she sat down next to him.

"Trunks it's been a month, you need to get over it." "I CAN'T" Bulma gave him a knowing look. "You are a prince, she's a wicken. oil and water don't mix and neither do you two." "We were friends, She was like my best friend!" Bulma gave an exasperated sigh. "Trunks, you are getting married, you are gonna become king and rule the land. While this is going on she'll still be plucking flowers and singing that ridiculous song of hers." Trunks glared at his mother, but she continued. "This love you have for her will stop. You'll get over it." Trunks gawked. Love? "Did you just say love?" Bulma slapped a hand over her mouth. "You did didn't you?" Trunks smirked.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." "You know what and you are right!" Bulma paled. "I love her." "No you don't!" "Yes I do!" Bulma shook her head and grabbed his arm. "You do not, you do not, you do not!" Trunks' smirk widened as he let his mother drag him out of the room.

As the ceremony commenced Trunks' smirk stayed implanted on his face. He had a plan and he was determined to go through with it. Nathalie came up the isle with a sad smile on her face. She wasn't really looking forward to this marriage herself because she too had fallen in love with someone. Trunks looked to her and winked causing her to look on in oddity. The man speaking the ceremony rode off words that rolled off his tongue like a pastry but as he got to the "I do's" Trunks said something no one was prepared for. "I don't." Nathalie looked on in shock, along with everyone else.

Bulma stood up angrily. "Trunks don't you dare!" "I'm sorry Nathalie but this just isn't my place to be. We're not meant to be like this." Nathalie smiled slightly and nodded. "I know Trunks." "In fact I don't even belong here, in the palace." He said in a whisper so only she could here it. "I hope someone will bring your heart happiness." With that said he kissed her hand and took off down the isle. "Guards, stop him before he does something even more insane!" "But your grace we're not allowed to touch the Prince in such a matter!" Bulma rolled her eyes. "Just don't let him get away! Surround him by all means!" The guards took after Trunks but he was already half way to his room.

As soon as he got inside he bolted his door and packed various things into a bag. Thumps were heard at his door and he began to panic. he looked to the balcony and ran up to it. The height wasn't that high but it was still pretty steep by his concern {He hasn't learn how to fly yet}. The wind blew a strong breeze and he smiled closing his eyes. Ryanna's song came to his ears and he jumped. Luckily for him the spirit within the wind made his body float like a feather and land safely on the ground. The instant his feet touched the ground he took off rapidly.

Bulma watched her son go and a tear came to her eye. "he really does love her, if he went through all of this just to be with her again." Vegeta placed a hand on his mates shoulder. "Let's give him a few days, if he's not back by then I'll send a search party." Bulma nodded and followed Vegeta inside. Her little boy was gone, the wedding she planned was a disaster, and worst of all her son was in love with a female wicken. She may never see him again. That scared her the most.

Whew! What a rush! Will Trunks find Ryanna? And if so will they live happily ever after? Who knows? Only I do! Stay tuned! REVIEW!
