Knock Before Entering

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

It wasn't hard to realize who they were bunking with. The 3 couples got their own rooms, Trunks and Goten shared a room, and Pan, Bra and Marron shared a room. The three adult's rooms were on the top floor of the three story house. The boys' room was on the middle floor, and the girls' room on the bottom floor, right when you get into the house.

The girls, especially Pan, were sticky from their food fight, so they didn't bother putting anything away quite yet. First, they pulled out swimsuits and ran to the bathroom. Bra got their first. She exchanged her now dirty bikini for a red and pink Roxy bikini. It had an O-ring in the front, holding the top together, and at the sides of the bottom, holding it together.

Marron speeded inside second. She pulled out her pink tankini and threw it on, not having to tie any strings, and stepped out of the bathroom, holding the door open for Pan.

Pan jumped into the bathroom and stripped off her dessert caked clothes. She rinsed off her face and hair in the shower. Feeling fresher, she pulled out her string tied white bikini. It had nylon underneath and a cotton net design on top. She was about to put on her top, when...

The boys were not interested in putting anything away quite yet either, considering they were as chocolate caked as Pan. They shifted through their messily packed suitcases and pulled out swim trunks. [teehee]

Goten shooed Trunks out of the room so he could change, while Trunks headed downstairs to the bathroom. He found the bathroom and burst into it, not thinking at all that someone may be in there.

Pan heard the door swing open and immediately screamed. She grabbed a towel off the rack and tried to cover herself, while Trunks stormed out almost as quickly as he barged in. Both their faces were tomato red

'That was terrible,' she thought at first, while tying the top of her bikini together before she slipped it over her head. 'But, you didn't mind it too much, did you?' she asked herself, as she tied the bottom part together, grabbed her dirty clothes, and ran back into her room, face matching the red in Bra's bikini.

'You're such an idiot Trunks!' he thought to himself as he saw Pan run from the bathroom straight to her room and slam the door. Knocking this time, although he knew well that no one was inside, he entered the bathroom.

Quickly slipping his "trunks" on over his boxers, he exited and dropped his clothes in his room before heading outside.

The girls were already there. He and Goten joined them while Trunks tried very hard not to look at Pan. She was doing a good job of hiding herself behind Bra and Marron though.

"Lets go on a walk down the beach and check out hott guys and see what there is here," Marron suggested. Pan quickly agreed Bra, not wanting to be left out, followed.

They walked halfway down the beach and saw some pretty hott guys surfing. They sat down to watch, not trying to be that obvious. A boy came out of the house behind them and noticed them watching his friends surfing. He walked past them, holding one of his surfboards, and joined his friends in the water; but not before winking at the pretty blonde.

Pan took this time to bring up her story.

"You guys, when I was in the bathroom, Trunks walked in on me," she told them. Bra snorted and Marron looked shocked.

"Did he see anything?" Marron asked. Pan shrugged.

"I didn't exactly have anything on top, but he ran back out just about as quickly as he came in. I don't think he did..." Pan replied. Marron shuddered, but Bra was still laughing.

"Oh god, my brother. I swear, if it was anyone else, he would have just kept looking. He's such a slut, you know that right?" Bra informed them. Pan looked at her wide eyed and Marron shook her head.

"You mean... I never told you?" Bra asked in shock. They both shook their heads, only a bit confused.

"Okay well, like every single girl he's dated, he's screwed. I swear, he comes home late every single night, flying through the window. And he has no shame about leaving them! I can't wait until he knocks up a girl and is forced to marry her or something," Bra went on. Pan looked shocked and Marron gasped.

"I never thought of your brother in that way!" Marron said innocently. Pan agreed, her crush on Trunks almost completely dissolving.

"Dude Marron, that guy surfing is TOTALLY checking you out," Pan said to cover up her surprise. Marron looked out at the water and saw a boy sitting on his surf board. He had very dark hair and light green eyes, and looked very cute. She blushed.

"Come on you guys, you know he's looking at you. I mean, I'm wearing a tankini, you guys are so much prettier!" she exclaimed. Her blonde pigtails hung down her shoulders. Bra stood up and shook out her waist length blue/lavender hair.

"Let's go back, I wanna give my brother grief about walking in on Pan," she said. Pan shook her head and protested but Bra was obstinate. Marron smiled and looked out at the water again. She indeed saw the boy's eyes watching her.

Trunks and Goten were just splashing around in the water when the girls returned. Trunks was still avoiding Pan with his eyes, but this time it wasn't as easy.

Bra made it even worse.

"So, Trunks? I guess you've never heard of knocking on the door huh? Saw more then you liked did you now?" Bra smirked.

Pan started blushing furiously and tried to get Bra to shut up. Marron, who didn't think the story was that funny before, was almost hysterical, but trying not to laugh. Considering Pan was her best friend, and Trunks looked murderous at the moment, she didn't have a death wish.

"Shut up Bra," Trunks mumbled, turning a slight pink. Bra smirked again, a typical Vegeta smirk, and didn't shut up.

"So it's not enough to have all those girlfriends, that you have to walk in on my best friend too? Tell me you didn't do it on purpose. I dare you," she taunted him feverishly. The pink in his cheeks quickly erupted into a flaming red.

"Shut up NOW Bra!" he said, much louder this time. He grabbed a towel and started to dry himself off, but Bra wasn't done yet.

"So did you like what you saw? Are you admitting it? Are you going to cheat on your girlfriend with Pan, and then dump her as soon as we get home?" she continued, well aware that her brother was past boiling point. But this was just too much fun.

"Bra, I'm going to kill you!" Trunks snapped and started chasing his sister around. He was of course much faster then she was, and she didn't have much time to call for help.

Goten watched the whole conflict with interest, then turned to his thoroughly embarrassed niece.

"Pan, did Trunks walk in on you while you were changing?"

Pan sensed a hint of 'parent-ism' in his voice. After all, he was her uncle, to some standard. It was her turn to blow up.

"What's it to you? Why can't everyone just stay out of my fucking business? I shouldn't have told you," Pan said irritably to Goten, and shot at Bra, who was busy running for her life. Marron looked a bit hurt, and sat down on the sand as Pan walked, and would have stomped if it wasn't in the sand, away as fast as she could.

"Wow..." Goten said, amazed Pan blew up like that. Normally she had a much longer temper.

"Yeah, totally..." Marron seconded. She definitely wasn't used to seeing her best friend blow up at people. Normally, Pan could take a lot more crap and keep going. There must be something about the particular incident that really irked her.

"Well, this... is... awkward," Goten said as he sat down next to Marron. They both looked at each other, then looked away. Goten started to snigger and Marron looked at him oddly.

"Did you see Trunks' face when Bra was taunting him? That was the most embarrassed I've ever seen him!" he laughed. Marron started giggling into her hands, but soon they were both rolling in the sand, not bothering to contain their laughter.

"We better stop before Pan comes back. She might blow our heads off! And Trunks doesn't look too happy either..." Marron laughed.

"Eeeeeee!!" Bra squealed, trying to get away from Trunks. He was much faster, and almost tackled her quite a few times.

"Daddy!!" she cried. Trunks felt Vegeta's KI rise and stopped chasing his sister. He figured his father would beat him to a bloody pulp if he was caught tormenting his sister. She was a total daddy's girl.

He then sensed a rise in someone's KI. Recognizing it as Pan's, he followed it, and the footprints in the sand. He walked for awhile, then found her sitting on a rock in front of one of the houses, talking to a surfer. He felt the jealousy swelling up, and couldn't figure out why.

Pan looked up and saw him. She immediately looked away and kept talking to the boy she was talking to. Trunks knew he could take the guy, but figured it would only piss Pan off more.

The guy obviously sensed the tension because Trunks saw him seemingly say goodbye, and walk into his house. Pan looked at Trunks and started to blush again, her cheeks turning a deep red. She stood up and turned her back towards him, obviously not happy.

Trunks couldn't help but stare at her bikini. He noticed this and began to blush himself. He walked closer to her and sat down on one of the rocks. Deciding to keep his distance, just in case Pan decided to blow his head off, he called out her name.

"Pan," he said softly. She wouldn't look him in the face.

"Pan listen, I'm sorry. I didn't think anyone was in there. I didn't walk in on purpose, I swear. Bra said some pretty gnarly things about me, but I wouldn't ever do that," he apologized. Pan heard the sincere ness in his voice, but she herself was a good actress.

"I forgive you," she said simply. He was waiting for another response from her, but she didn't give one. He grabbed her arm and turned her around to face him.

"Pan look, I'm REALLY sorry. Don't be mad at me for it, please?" he pleaded. Pan looked at him. He looked pitiful, like he was begging Buu for forgiveness or something. She almost broke down, but remembered what Bra said. Suddenly, he looked like he was begging her into bed with him.

She spat at his feet.

"You're dirt sometimes Briefs. You amaze me sometimes," she whispered angrily. He looked shocked. She swung her arm loose and walked back down the beach, any feelings she had for him, erupting.

He sat on the rock for awhile, watching her walk away, getting smaller and smaller, into the sunset.

"Kami, she's beautiful when she's angry," he said out loud to himself. Waiting for the sun to go all the way down, he moved off the rock and sat down on the sand, still watching Pan, and the sunset.

Once the sun went down, he took off into the sky, and reached the house in a matter of seconds.

Meanwhile at the house.........

Bra and Marron were sitting in their room, playing cards and Goten was watching TV upstairs. They heard him groan occasionally and complain that the Lakers were scum and shouldn't be winning.

Bra was beating Marron mercilessly at Spit, Speed, and War. Marron was a good loser though. They had been playing since the fight died down and Pan and Trunks walked off. They were waiting for Pan and Trunks to return from wherever they were. Everyone was. But by now, it was definitely dark.

Suddenly a large crash was heard from upstairs.

"It sounds like someone just flew through a window," Marron said. Bra nodded.

"Trunks," she replied. Then they heard a knock at the door. Marron saw a figure in a bikini outside, shivering and obviously cold.

"Pan..." Bra and Marron both said simultaneously. Marron went to get the door. Pan came in and sat down on the floor next do Bra. She was shivering, so Bra threw her a blanket off her bed.

"So, what happened?" Bra asked eagerly.

"Trunks apologized," Pan said, sounding a bit angry.

"And..." Marron and Bra both said. Pan sighed, biting on her lip to stop her teeth from chattering.

"And he acted all totally fucking innocent. You know like, 'I'm sorry, please don't be mad, I'd never do that.' He practically begged me to forgive him. I mean, whatever, right?" Pan said, only partly angry.

"Yeah..." Marron replied.

Pan was shivering cold so she walked to the bathroom, locking the door this time. She stripped off her bikini and jumped into the hot shower. It scalded her skin but she didn't really feel it. She was too busy thinking.

Goten was surprised at his friend. It wasn't like him to fly through windows like that; especially not in front of all the parents. Bulma began to yell at him, for wrecking the window that they would have to replace.

Goten gave her a look, telling her he'd take care of it. He motioned for Trunks to come downstairs and they went into their room and shut the door.

"What happened? You're a mess. I haven't seen you fly through a window since your first girlfriend dumped you," Goten asked, more sensitive then Bra.

"Nothing," Trunks replied. Goten could see he didn't feel like talking, so he didn't push it. They both wanted to shower though. Finding the door locked, Goten waited. When Pan pushed the door open, standing with a towel covering her body, he crept inside, muttering goodnight. She returned the favor and walked into her room, shutting the door behind her.

Since Bra and Marron had already showered, they didn't have to wait. Pan slipped into her PJ's, booty short underwear and a red tank top. She slipped comfortable into the bunk bed underneath of Bra.

"Hey Marron, did you see those 4 guys surfing? Well, I talked to one of them while I was walking. He said that his friend, the dark haired one, was totally digging you and wanted to meet you!" Pan spouted out randomly. The two other girls who were about to drift off into blissful dreams sprang awake.

"Pan??? No way!" Marron exclaimed. Bra put her finger to her lips, suggesting that they keep the noise down to a dull roar.

"I'd believe it," Bra commented. "He was totally cute. And he was totally checking you out the whole time. Every time he finished a wave, he'd look to see if you were watching."

"Yeah, the one I talked to, his name was Josh. He was the one with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was like 6 feet tall and TOTALLY cute," Pan grinned. Summer flings always rocked, and this was almost one of them.

"That's so awesome! He was totally cute. I guess I'm digging him too, When can I met him?" Marron asked. Pan shrugged.

"I don't know, Trunks barged into the conversation, sort of. He sensed that we knew each other and their was tension, so he said he'd see me later and went inside his house," Pan muttered. Marron sighed.

They sat in silence for awhile, before Bra spoke.

"Pan, Marron?" Bra asked hesitantly. The other two girls mumbled to let her know they were listening. Suddenly, Bra wasn't sure if she wanted to reveal her secret.

"I sort of have something to confess," she whispered. Pan and Marron sat up in bed, listening intently now. Bra knew there wasn't any backing out now.

"Well, I think Goten is really hott, and I've had a crush on him for awhile," she said, picking her words carefully. Marron nodded and Pan's eyes got wide and she started laughing.

"No way!" she whispered.

"Pan!" Marron and Bra both scolded. She put her hands over her mouth, and Bra looked almost hurt.

"You don't think it's ridiculous, do you?" she asked even more hesitantly. Pan started to answer but Marron got there first.

"Of course not. He's cute, funny, nice, anything anyone would want in a guy!" she answered. Pan covered her mouth and didn't say anything while Marron scowled at her.

Pan then looked down, ashamed. She began to speak.

"I guess I haven't been quite honest with you guys either. I had a big crush on Trunks," she started. Bra gasped and even Marron was surprised. "But it's over now. I've seen who he really is, and he isn't someone I wanna be with."

Bra nodded and Marron spoke next.

"You have no right for making fun of her for liking your uncle Pan!" Marron scolded her friend, playing peacemaker. Pan nodded and apologized to Bra. Bra just shook it off.

"It's not like you're the only one to fall for my brother's tricks. Marron did," Bra said simply, causing Marron to turn a deep shade of red. Pan's jaw dropped.

"And you two decided not to fill me in on this?" she said in wonderment. Marron looked at the floor and Bra at the ceiling.

"Well then I guess I should put Marron's year long crush on Goten out in the open too," Pan spat angrily, not liking being left out. It was Bra's turn to be surprised.

"And you guys never told me?" she asked. Pan flipped over in her bed, facing the wall, and didn't speak. Marron got up and turned off the lights, sighing angrily as she slipped into her bed. Bra did the same thing. None of them spoke to each other as they all drifted off to sleep.

And in the boys room...

"Okay dude, like seriously, what happened with you and Pan?" Goten asked as he finished his shower. Trunks sighed.

"I'll tell you when I get out of the shower," he responded, grabbing a towel and his boxers and a tank top. Goten nodded, crawling into bed. He was quite tired, and fell asleep before Trunks finished his shower.

Trunks was of course relieved, and knew Goten would forget it in the morning. He threw his towel on the ground, jumped into his bed, and drifted into dream land.
