Last time:

(Trunks' p.o.v.)

I smirk when she blushes, "It's a pleasure meeting you too, Trunks and Vegeta.  I must be going inside now."  She quickly goes back inside.  She doesn't look too bad.  What'll the guys say when I tell them I'm dating a college girl? I look back at Gohan and smile. 

            "The movers are almost done but we could go to the back, we have a couple benches out there."

Chapter 9: There's beauty within?

*~*

            I lie on my bed and stare at my boring ceiling.  What do I do now?  What do I do when I'm bored?  Go to Pan's house.  I sigh and glance out the window.  Everything seems so... empty now.  I get up and change into khaki pants and an old wrestling shirt.  I slip on my brown sneakers and walk out the door and towards the park.

            On arriving there, I smile a bit as I watch our school cheerleaders practice.  I sit down on a bench and just smile.  I recognize someone.  Is that Celia?  I stare at the brown hair, green eyed goddess as she did flips across the grass.  I smile as her uniform skirt would rise up and I would see her thighs.  I shake my head and look away.  God Uub!  You have Pan, remember?  It's not like I've never this before though.

            I get up and walk across the field with my hands in my pockets.  I smile a bit when Celia runs over to me, "Uub!  I haven't seen you since our dinner two weeks ago!"

*~(^-^)~*

            I lay lazily on the couch after a day and night of unpacking and putting things away.  I watch the Saturday afternoon cartoons while eating a bowl of Cap'n Crunch (A/N:  I dun own that either).  Being so engrossed of the TV, I don't notice mom walking in the living room until she said, "Pan, why don't you check out the city?  You don't accomplish anything sitting on your bottom!"  I groan and sit up, turning off the TV.

            "Okay but I get the car!"

*~(^-^)~*

            "So how did we end up here again?" I laugh a bit as Goten looks down and scratches the back of his head.  I lean against the window outside of a store as I wait for Marron and Bra to get out.

            "Bra's your girlfriend; she made you go, remember?" I just smirk as a couple ladies pass by.

            "You're lucky you don't have one.  I wouldn't be surprised if Bra was buying me a leash in there!"  I laugh out loud as Bra hits Goten with her purse from being behind him all this time.

            "Don't worry, Goten.  I'm gettin' there," I smirk and put my hands in my pockets.

            "Oh, Trunksie!  Who's the lucky girl??"  I cringe a bit as Marron bats her eyes.  Girls like that scare the hell outta me!

            "Oh just a girl named Pan.  She's the professor's daughter AND she goes to college!"  I slap Goten's hand and smile as he laughs, patting my back all at the same time.

            "Damn, Trunks!" I glance around and notice someone looking at clothes on the other side of the mall. 

            "Hey, I gotta go you guys, I just spotted someone so I'll catch up with you guys later," I slap Goten's hand and leave right before Marron would nag and try to make me stay.

*~(^-^)~*

            I walk inside and it's totally different from minor cities.  This is Tokyo, Land of Malls!  I begin to look around, still trying to get used to this huge place that's bigger than all our malls put together (A/N: Remember! Pan's from some random small city!).  I smile a bit and go inside a random clothing store with a bunch of sale signs on them.  Hey, if I'm looking around, I might as well shop too!  I smirk as I glance at my mom's credit card.

*flashback*     

 "Remember!  If you get lost, use this!" Evil grin on Pan's face.

*end of flashback*

            I check out the rack filled with olive cargo pants on sale for 12 Yen!  "Are you lost?" I glance up and blush a bit when I see the clearly lavender haired guy in front of me.  "You know, the girl's section is that way, right?"  I turn my head and notice the pink section.

            "And..?" I smile a bit.

            "And why would you want to guy clothes?" I just blink as my face turns beet red.  I bet he thinks I'm some cross dresser!!

            "Oh, yeah, that's right," I slowly turn around and mentally slap myself as I walk towards the horrid section of fluffy clothes and leopard panties.

*~(^-^)~*

            Wait!  Shit!  What am I doing?!  "Uh, hey Pan?  Come back here," I mentally smirk as I notice her eyes shining again and her cheeks turning red.  Not bad Trunks…  "You're not busy are you?"  I lean against a rack and give her my award winning smile.

            "No, I'm just touring around the city.  I've never really been to Tokyo," I glance down a bit as she fidgets, almost not looking like a college chick.

            "I'll give you a tour of the city, if you want me to.  I have time," I glance at my watch, "it's only 5:30."

            Pan smiles a bit which, oddly enough, makes me smile.  "Sure, I'd love to.  I need to be back at home by nine.  It takes me a while to get home too, if you don't mind."

            I just shake my head and touch her hand, "No problem, lets go."

*~(^-^)~*

            We walk hand in hand exiting the mall.  For some reason, it doesn't feel weird or awkward like it normally should.  It just feels nice.  I glance up at the tall buildings and clouds when we're outside.  "We can just use my convertible if you want," I look at him now and smile a bit.

            "We'll have to come back here then, my car's parked in the garage."  We continue walking until I stop and almost gasp at the sight of that convertible.  Trunks opens the door for me and I slowly sit down inside this black, leather car.  I feel so under dressed sitting here!  He leaves the top down and just jumps in.  Amazing.

            He puts on a pair of really sexy dark sunglasses with a tint of dark purple and starts the engine.  "So, where do you want to begin?"  I can't help but blush and look down when he smiles.

            "Where's the park?"  I smile a bit and jerk back when he quickly leaves his parking spot and zooms out into the street; I even feel my hair fly around from the wind.  Right after my suggestion, Trunks just puts his stick into first and zooms onto the street, switching to second like it was nothing!

*~(^-^)~*

            The park?  Hm... park... At least it isn't some boring museum!  I quickly drive around the city as I look for a park.  Lake Yagami?  I stop because of the traffic light and think.  Should I bring her to the pond?   I shake my head a bit and glance at Pan.  No one knows about it... why should she be any different?  Well she is more ma-

            "So what school do you go to?"  I look at Pan and smile a bit.

            "I'm going to be a senior at Orange Star.  What about you?  What's your major?"

            I see her eyes widen a bit and she laughs.  Hmm... I'm not that young...

"Oh no-"

"Oh there's the park!  That's Lake Yagami, one of the biggest parks in Japan; right in heart, almost like New York."  We cruise around until I find the parking lot.

"Wow, it's beautiful.  Such opposites, I love it!"  I smile to myself.  That's the first thing I thought about when I saw it.

*~(^-^)~*

            As we get out of the car, I smile a bit as we walk together.  It's almost like a date!  To go through the entrance, we go under this wooden, flowery arc and I automatically feel as if I'm in Never, Never Land!  Right when I go through this door, I see a large pond with ducks and dragonflies.  There are gazebos in different corners and people picnicking all over the place.  There are hot dog and ice cream stands as well as benches and bike pathways.

            "It's great isn't it?  I swear it's another world out here."

            I smile and look at Trunks.  "Yeah, almost like the secret garden."  I turn my head as we continue walking and watch as little kids play around in the trees.  There are two boys and one girl and they're all playing tag.  I remember when I was younger and I'd be playing games as if that's the only thing that matters.  All of a sudden, I feel someone pull my hand I automatically look up, about to flip this guy over until I realize it's Trunks.

            "C'mon, I want to show you something."  We walk further into the park where now I see a big baseball field, a couple tennis courts, volleyball areas, play grounds, and a basketball court.  We move deeper into the woods, away from the music and loud noises.  I look around at this area, which is just a bunch of trees and dirt.  Where is he taking me?  After going through the patches of trees, Trunks moves a branch to the side and I can't help but gasp.  "Beautiful isn't it?"  He smiles and brings me in.

*~(^-^)~*

            "Like, I can't believe him, how can he just talk about some other girl and then bail out on us?  And who's this Pan bitch?"  I keep chewing my gum frantically as I breathe out and roll my eyes.

            "Shut up about it, Marron.  You're always jealous or angry about something.  Just knock it off."  I glare at Goten and then to Bra.

            "Bra!  Like oh my Kami, are you going to let Goten talk to me like that?!"  I twirl my hair and spit my gum out on the sidewalk and we walk out of the mall and to Goten's car.

            "Oh, uh.. Kami, shut up, Goten!  Don't listen to him, Mar.  You know Trunks will come back to you.  He always does."  I smile and nod.

            "Yeah, but I can't wait any longer.  Trunks will be mine before he leaves."  I smirk.  I've got the perfect plan.

*~(^-^)~*

            We walk inside the true secret garden, me holding Pan's hand.  I know that this is unlike me to actually use this almost sacred place to pick Pan up but this is a college girl... woman.  She was just laughing at me earlier because of how young I was.

            Now, I don't want to sound queer but this is a very beautiful place that no one really knows about.  It's a small open area with a tiny creek that runs through it and a pond in the middle.  This part of the park is the darkest area at night since there are no lamp posts here.  The small waterfall near the rocks has the water looking silver instead of clear because of the sky that transforms to dark blue every night. 

            I lead her towards the creek and watch as she would sit on the grass and touch the water.  "This is such a perfect place.  Why is no one here?"

            I stand up, not wanting to get my pants dirty.  "Nobody really knows about this area.  Everyone stays in the fields; only kids actually go in the forest."  I walk over to a tree and just lean back against it.  We stay around in silence and I smile as I'm able to just lean back and close my eyes, like I always do.  At least Pan's mature about it.  Marron would be dying to make out!  I smirk and suddenly feel as though someone's watching me.  "Do you want to go now?"  I smile a bit and roll my eyes when she blushes again and looks at the grass.  "It's 7:30."

            I watch as she gets up and walks to me.  "I might have to start heading out soon.  Traffic's terrible out here."  I nod a bit and watch as she picks a flower and starts walking through the woods.  At that point I realized that this girl can't be like all the others.  She's not pretty at all but she's interesting…real interesting…

            I follow her out of the woods and put my hands in my pockets as I walk with her out of the park.  I look up at the setting sun and glance at Pan.  Why didn't she ask me to continue the tour some other time?  I just shake my head.  Pan will be mine.  I don't care how young I am.
