Chapter 10

Sam was in her room, changing into her p.j.s when Trunks looked in on her.

"You doing okay?"

"I think I can handel changing into a pair of shorts and a tank top. Why do you ask?"

"You were acting kinda weird at the party. Just thought I would make sure you were okay."

She looked over at him. He was leaning into the room from the bathroom doorway. No shirt on, a pair of gray sweats, his hair just a little messed up.

"I'm fine, okay. Really."

"Nothing you want to tell me?"

"Nope, not a thing. Why do you ask?"

She tried to act as if the question hadn't caught her by suprise. She wasn't sure if he knew or not.

"No reason. Anyway, you going to bed yet?"

"Not yet, why?"

He reached his hand out, "Come here."

She put her hand in his, and allowed him to pull her to him. He wrapped his arms around her, and kissed her.

She pulled back, pursed her lips and sighed. "Who said you could be the one to start?"

"I did, you going to do anything about it?"

"I just might," she asnwered, a smirk on her lips.

She pushed him flat against the wall, her hand slipped over his chest, down his abdomen, util she stopped at his waist band.

"Sam, you sure you want to do that?"

"You gonna stop me big shot?"

Her hand slipped under his waist band, no far, but just enough to make him feel it.

He reached down to stop her, grabbed her wrist and pulled her hand out.

"Now, wait just one minute. Before we go and tie any body to the bed, we need to take care of something first."

"I didn't say anything about tieing anybody to the bed, but if ya want we can. And don't worry, I got something from the doctor earlier."

He was confused, he thought she had been in the room the entire time, actually now that he thought about it. She was. She probably went before then.

She went to her nightstand, took out a small compact looking thing, opened it up, took something out and stuck it in her mouth.

"Birth control?"

"What, so I was thinking ahead."

"When did you get those?"

"Two days before we..........well. You know."

"Oh, alright. Now come here."

'Please let that little pill work.'

He heard her thought, but he didn't say anything. He pulled her closer, lifted her up, kissed her, and carried her to the bed.

She pulled him down with her when he sat her down. She let him go, he stepped back, slipped out of his sweats, and got beside her on the bed.

Sam pulled him on top of her, he traced the side of her body, making her sqiurm.

"You seem to be good at making me squirm, don't you?"

"What can I say, you're just tickleish. I can't help that."

She started to pull her shirt off, but with him over her, it was difficult. He sat up, took the sides of her shirt and pulled in off of her.

"So what were you planning on doing to me?"

"Oh, I don't know, tourture you maybe, tie you to the bed, I was just going to go with it."

"You are bad. Tourture, tieing someone to the bed. What is going on in your head?"

"Wouldn't you like to know?"

He reached over and turned the bedside lamp out.

That next morning:

Sam stretched, yawned, and rolled over, draping her arm over Trunks. Who was already awake.

Trunks was on his back, next to her in the bed. When he felt her arm across his chest, he looked over at her.

"Morning sleepy head."

"Morning. What time is it?"

"Not a clue. It can't be that late though."

"Why not?"

"Because, I heard either mom or dad walk down the hall way a little while ago."

"Oh, well, we should probably get up anyway."

"What for, you usally sleep in till almost 11 anyway."

"I do not. I at least wake up around 8."

"Yeah, when I'm in bed with you."

She hit him. Which only made him laugh, and roll over to look her in the eye.

"I don't know why I put up with you. Honestly. You're mean to me, you pick on me constantly, and................"

He had slipped on hand underneath the blanket while she had been talking, and was tracing circles on the inside of her leg.

"And?"

She tried to go on, but no words came out of her mouth when she tried to speak. She bit down on her lip, closed her eyes, and ended up holding her breath.

He went further up, trying not laugh at the reaction he was getting.

"Go on. You were saying?"

She reached down, pushed his hand down, and took a deep breath.

"That was low, even for you. And that was just wrong, you do that right when I'm in the middle of a sentence."

He leaned close to her, kissed her, and then said, "I actually could've went higher before you even noticed. Think about that one."

"Trunks, you are impossible. I mean, is there any time when you wont try and start something?"

"Yeah, when mom and dad are in the room. Why do you ask?"

She just sighed, rolled over and got out of the bed. Luckily she had slipped on an oversized tee shirt before they had fallen asleep.

He laid on his side, watching her.

She had picked up her brush and was brushing her hair out in front of the mirror in the bathroom. When she started at the top and went down, the shirt she was wearing came up, but then went right back down. It was considerably short anyway, coming only to her mid thigh.

When she set the brush down, she came back into her room and started going through her drawers to find what to wear.

"What are you doing?"

"Getting dressed. Something you should probably be doing too. You got a problem with that?"

"Well, I was just wondering what was wrong with what you have on."

"What's wrong with it? Trunks I'm in only a tee shirt. One of yours I might add. I'm not going out like this."

She went into the bathroom and closed the door, leaving him in her bed.

By the time she came out he had gotten up and was in his room.

She looked in on him. He was pulling a tanktop on, his back to her.

She just watched him, giving him quite an intense look over. He straightened his shirt, ran a comb through his hair, turned and looked at her.

"What you stareing at?"

"You. There a problem with that?"

"Any reason you're stareing at me?"

"Cuz I felt like it. That okay with you?"

She walked over to him, wrapped her arms around his waist, and pulled him close to her. She held herself against him, feeling his heart beat speed up.

She laughed and kissed him, opening his mouth wider with her tounge. He wrapped his arm around her and lifted her from the floor, still keeping her in the kiss.

To Sam, the rest of everything else just sort of dissolved around them. The heat from his body enveloped her.And if it had been early in the relationship, it would've scared her alittle, but as of that moment, it excited her. She never wanted to let him go, ever.

At first neither one of them heard the knock at the door, but it came again, harder.

"Trunks, you in there?"

They parted, and Trunks let Sam down.

"Perfect timing. One more minute and I would've been in heaven," Sam said sarcatically.

"Easy girl. You'll be back in heaven were you belong later tonight. That is if I have anything to do with it."

She gave him a look, "Trunks, you and I both know that I'm no angel."

He just smiled and went to open the door. Bulma was on the other side and told him that Goten had called.

"I'll call him back."

"Trunks, is Sam in there?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Just remember to call Goten back okay."

"Alright."

Bulma left and Trunks closed the door.

Sam sat down on Trunks' bed took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. With her eyes closed she rested her head in her hands.

"Hey, you okay?"

She noticed the hint of concern in his voice. She didn't know if she was really ready to tell him.

"It's nothing really. No big deal."

She stood up, and went to open the door. Trunks followed her out, wondering if she was really okay.

When Trunks called Goten back, Sam suggested that Goten and Marron come over for a while.

Sitting on the floor in Sam's room:

Sam and Trunks were lying on their stomachs on the bed. While Marron and Goten were on the floor.The small tv was on but they were talking amongst themselves instead of watching what was on.

"Wait so you mean you were actually a trouble maker?"

"Oh yeah, dating guys just to make my step dad mad. I thought it was hillarious. Would you beileve that I dated a guy who had over 20 tattos?"

"No. Did you?"

"And also, I dated a guy who who was old enough to be my dad."

"How old were you?"

"I was..........almost 14 I think. Yeah 14."

"And how old was the guy?"

"I don't know, mid 30's, something like that. I never really asked."

"You never asked the guy how old he was?"
"No, and we met on the internet. I was mad and I wanted to really drive my step dad to the wall, so I agreed to see the guy."

"You really were a rebel wern't you?"

"Well, the worst thing I did was stay at a guy's house with three other guys for two full weeks. Mom flipped and David hit the roof."

"Well, I would imagine. I mean I wouldn't want my daughter dating a guy old enough to be my brother."

Sam just started laughing. She almost rolled off of the bed but Trunks grabbed hold of her.

After calming down alittle Sam went on, "Now, that was just me being a typical rebeling teen. Nothing compared to what I did on my 16th birthday."

"And that was?"

"I told mom and David that I was going off with some guy and that we were going to get married."

"And?"

"I thought David was going to have kittens. He totally flipped out. I thought it was funny till he slapped me around alittle. And when I fought back he hit me hard enough to knock me out."

"He did that?"

"Yeah, then all I knew was I woke up in my room with a wash cloth on my head and the right side of my head hurting. Mom was crying and David was no where to be seen. Found out he was at a bar with some other girl."

"Geeze. That had to be hard. Growing up with a guy like that."

"Hey, I survived. I'm here now aren't I?"

"Well yeah, but still. Guys like that shouldn't be around people."

"No, he's just a mean drunk. Other than that he hardly said a word to me. He didn't like me from the begining. But I was used to the routin. Mom went through three other guys before David. The first and second guys were jerks, but the third I liked. Till we found out he was gay and that it would never work."

"That's a bummer."

"You're tellin' me. But then school got out and I heard that Bulma was needing an asssistant or something and I jumped for the opportunity. David had left for awhile and mom said I could, and well, now I'm here."

They all sat there, quiet for a minute. Sam sat up, sighed and said, "Anybody up for going out somewhere?"

"Where?"

"I don't know, somewhere. Anywhere. I don't care, just out."

"Sounds good to me."

"Great, let's go."

"Think we could stop for lunch somewhere though. I'm starving."

"When are you not?"

"Funny. Real funny. But true."

The four started laughing again.

Walking down the street:

Marron was holding hands with Goten, and Sam had her arms wrapped around Trunks' left arm.

"Where to now?"

"Good question, any ideas?"

"No, that's why I asked."

"Oh, well. Um..............thinking.........not coming up with anything..............I don't have a clue."

Trunks looked down at the girl with an odd look.

"What?"

"I don't get you sometimes."

"That's okay, sometimes I don't get me either. It's strange, beileive me."

He jus nodded, "okay."

Seeing a convient store Sam thought that she should check if she was pregnant sooner rather then later.

At the same time Trunks saw Gohan.

"Tell you what, you go talk to Gohan and I'll go make a quick stop. Got a small problem."

"Alright, I'll meet you inside then."

"Kay," she kissed him on the cheek and walked away.

"I'm going to go with her."

"Alright."

The guys went to talk to Gohan while the girls went into the store.

Sam found what she was looking for and went to the front counter to pay. After paying, she asked, "Could you tell me where the bathroom is?"

"Down that isle and to your left."

"Thank you."

Marron came up beside her as she was walking down where the girl at the counter had told her.

"So?"

"I'm gonna check."

"And if it's positive?"

"If it's positive I'm gonna freak. And iff it's negative I'm gonna be very releived."

"But if it's positive, you're going to have to tell him. You know that right?"

"I know. That's why I'm hoping it's negative."

Getting to the door, Marron waited outside while Sam went in.

She was in there about ten minutes before Marron went in.

Sam was leaning on the small counter, looking at herslef in the mirror, the test beside her.

"I have to wait five more minutes."

Marron was quiet, Sam looked at her watch.

"Sam, you know that I'll help anyway I can."

"Just hope and pray that it's negative. I'm not ready for this. I mean, I'm only 17. Mom didn't have me till she was 20. Sure I've baby sat before but that's different."

She stopped when Marron placed her hands on Sam's shoulders.

She looked at her watch, "2 minutes left."

"You'll be okay. Really."

"I'm scared. Terrified is more the word actually."

"I know. I'd be scared too. But it's okay. You'll be okay."

Marron hugged her and Sam hugged her back.

"I don't know what to do. And how am I going to tell him that sort of thing? He'll have puppies!"

Marron stepped back to look the other girl in the eye.

"I'll help. But we'll worry about that when we know. Okay?"

Sam nodded.

"Okay, how much longer?"

"About 30 seconds. You look, I wont be able to."

They just stood there and looked at one another for a minute. Sam's alarm went off on her watch, causing her to jump.

"Alright, here goes."

Sam picked up the test and closed her eyes. Marron took it from her and looked.

Positive.

She set it back down. Took Sam's hands in hers, squeezed them alittle, and sighed.

"Well?"

Sam opened her eyes. "What is it? Am I?"

Marron just nodded.

"Oh no! You're not kidding. I'm not ready to be a mom. I can't be a mom! Oh great and how do I tell Trunks? Shit. "

"Sam!, calm down. You can handle this. Okay? Listen to me. Trunks is not that hard to deal with. He normally doesn't freak out that bad."

"Yeah until now. He hadn't been told he's a father yet."

"It's okay, now let's just go back out there, and we'll figure out what to do okay."

Sam allowed Marron to pull her, by the hand, out the door.

When they opened the door, Trunks was leaning against the wall by the door, and Goten was standing in front of him, talking.

Trunks just glanced over, saw Sam's distressed look and did a double take.

"Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, great, perfect, just wonderful." Sam rambled.

"Yeah everything is fine. Let's just go okay."

Marron pulled her away from the bathroom, let Trunks take her, and went to stand by Goten.

"So where to?"

"We could go to the park or something, I don't know."

"Park will work, cuz I can't think of anything else."

"Great let's go."

They left the store, and when they got outside, Sam stopped.

"Wait, I got a better idea. Well, maybe not a better idea, but it's somewhere else to go."

"Where?"

"It's a small clearing out by my house, small waterfall, little stream, what do ya think?"

"Let's go. Sounds great."

They left for Sam's house, Sam leading the way.

Sam touched down and sat down on the tree limb. Resting her head in her hands.

When the others touched down, she looked up. Goten was holding Marron, and when he touched down he set her down.

Trunks walked over to her and sat down next to her.

Goten and Marron looked around, seeming impressed by the sight.

Sam looked over at Trunks, sighed, thought about telling him, changed her mind, and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Are you sure everything is okay?"

"Yeah." 'No. It's not okay.'

He wrapped his arm around her.

"Sam this place is beautiful."

"Do you come here alot?"

"Yeah, especially when I just need time to think."

Sam stood up and started walking around. Hugging herself. Trunks watched her, wondering if he should do or say something.

Marron walked over to her, placing her hands on the girl's shoulders. She said something to her, but they were talking quiet enough, he didn't hear.

Sam looked in his direction, then back at Marron, shook her head and Marron nodded.

Again Sam looked over at him, then back at Marron, bit her lip, and nodded slightly.

Marron said something else, turned the girl to where she was facing him, and gave her a little push.

Sam started walking toward him slowly. Marron was walking behind her.

Sam started to turn back but Marron stopped her and pushed her forward.

Goten sat beside Trunks and asked, "What's going on?"

"Not sure. But I'm going to find out."

He got up and started toward the girls.

"Oh crap, he's coming over here."

Sam turned to walk away but Marron made her face forward.

"You have to tell him. And today is as good of a day as any."

"But.,.......I don't know if I can........I can't do this."

"Yes you can."

Trunks stopped beside Sam, touched her shoulder, causing her to jump.

"Sam?"

Marron stepped away and went to where Goten sat, very confused.

"Samantha, is there something going on?"

Yes. There is. Trunks, I need to tell you something, but I don't know if I can."

He took her hand in his, pulled her close and held her.

"You know you can tell me anything. And I'll always be here. Sam I love you. And nothing will change that."

"Not even if I'm pregnant?"Sam muttered.

He froze, Stepped back to look her in the eye and asked, "What?"

"I'm pregnmant Trunks. I am. I took the test and it was positive."

"And I'm the........."

"The father? Yeah, you're the father."

He couldn't speak. He opened his mouth to respond but nothing came out.

"Sam I...............I don't know what to say. How, when...........how could it've happened?"

"Trunks, please. I'm not ready for this either. Trust me, this was not suppoused to happen. "

"Then how did it happen?"

"I don't know okay, I probably screwed up somewhere, I don't know. But it happened. I'm pregnant and the only one who could possibly be the father is you."

He just looked at her. Shocked, dumbfounded, confused, and speechless. Sam stood about two feet away from him, tears in her eyes, afraid, confused, and lost.

She bit her lip, trying to hold back tears, "I can't undo what happened, and I don't know how to fix it. I just thought you should know."

He watched as she turned around and started back to where Goten and Marron sat.

"Sam, wait. Samantha.", he called after her, causing her to turn.

He went to her side, looked her in the eye, pulled her to him and held her.

She wrapped her arms around him and said, "I'm not ready to be a mom."

"We will get through this. I promise. As long as we live through telling mom and dad."

"Crap, I completely forgot about Vegeta. I was stresing about about telling you. I can't tell him. No way."

He chuckled alittle, loosened his grip and looked at her. "You're really having a baby?"

She nodded.

"9 months right?"

She nodded again.

"Then I guess we have awahile before we have to start thinking about names huh?"

She laughed, "Well, we still have to find out if it's a boy or girl."

"Right."

When they got back to C.C., Sam was still nervous.

"It'll be fine. I promise. I'll be right beside you."

Goten and Marron had went on to his house.

They went into the house to find Bulma and Vegeta both in the kitchen.

"Mom, dad, there is something we need to tell you."

Bulma looked up and asked, "What is it?"

"Well, you both know that Sam and I slept together."

"Who doesn't?",Sam muttered.

"And well........something happened that neither of us planned on. No one wanted this to happen, but it did."

Bulma was slightly confused, Sam was just going on and on.

"The girl is pregnant."

They all looked over at Vegeta who was leaning against the counter.

"Dad how did you.........how did you know?"

"Did I not tell you this would happen?"

"No, you said that if she gets pregnant."

"Still. The girl is pregnant. That's the whole point. Is it not?"

"Right."

Vegeta walked across the kitchen and left the room without another word.

Bulma sat at the table, eyes wide, and speechless.

"So?"

"What can I say, Trunks. I mean, you come in here and tell me that I'm going to be a grandmother in nine months. What do you want me to say?"

"Anything. Just say something."

Bulma got up and walked over to Sam. "You're really?"

Sam nodded.

Bulma smiled and hugged the teen then hugged her son.

"Any name ideas?"

"Well not yet. But we will be working on it."

Bulma hugged them again, then had to get back to work if she wanted to get what she was doing done before dark.

One month later:

Sam and Trunks stood at the check in counter in the doctor's office.

"Mitchel was the last name?"

"Yes, Samantha Mitchel."

The girl behind the counter was looking for the name on the appointment list.

"Here we are, Samantha Mitchel. The doctor will be with you in a minute."

"Thank you."

They went to go sit down to wait and Sam started to sway alittle.

Trunks held her to steady her. "Alright?"

She nodded. "Okay."

They sat down and Trunks took her hand in his.

"So, we have a name picked if it's a girl and if it's a boy. Right?"

"Right. Damen if it's a boy and Akira if it's a girl."

"Okay, alright. You nervous?"

"No, you."

She shook her head, then started to nod.

He chuckled and squeezed her hand gently.

About a 5 minutes later, a nurse stepped into the waiting room. "Samantha Mitchel?"

"Coming."

They got up and followed the nurse to one of the rooms.

Waiting for the doctor didn't take too long, When the doctor came in, Sam saw it was the same one as before.

"Alright Samantha. What are we doing today?" She looked down at her clipboard, "Finding out if the little one is male or female."

"Right."

After finding out:

Sam went back into the examining room to get her bag that she had left.

The doctor was waiting out in the hall, and when Sam came out she asked, "Any names picked out?"

"Yeah, we had one picked for it it was either one."

Trunks came around the corner. "Ready to go?"

"Yeah. Thank you doctor, and I'll be sure and come by if anything comes up."

"You do that, and if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to call."

"Right. I will."

They left the doctor's office and went back to C.C.

Sam first went to tell Bulma, which would evidently get to Vegeta, then she called Marron and told her, which got it around to Goten and Gohan.

Then Sam called what little family she could get a hold of.

Later that night:

Sam sat up in bed, reading, while Trunks lay on his side asleep.

She marked her spot, closed the book, then removed her reading glasses (which she hardly ever wore), and laid down next to him.

He turned over and wrapped her up in his arms.

"What time is it?", he asked sleepily.

"Late enough. Go back to sleep."

He sighed then whispered, "I love you."

"I love you too."

They fell asleep in eachother's arms. Sam's head resting against his chest, and his arms wrapped around her as if protecting her and their unborn child.

The baby shower followed, along with the unpredicable moodswings and outbursts.

Then came the day.

Trunks was on the phone with Goten while Sam was in the living room.

She stood up and then bent over. "Oh crap, TRUNKS!"

He looked up. "Crap, Goten meet us at the hospital. It's time."

He jung up and went straight to Sam, who grabbed his hand. "Can we go now?"

"MOM! IT'S TIME!"

He took her straight to the hospital, Goten arrived soon after with Gohan, Videl, and Marron. Bulma and Vegeta got there when he came back to the waiting room.

"It's just contractions for now, but the nurse will come in and tell me."

"How is she?"

"In pain. And she has on hell of a grip too."

They all laughed.

A nurse came in, "Who is with Miss Mitchel?"

Trunks turned around, "Me. Is everything okay?"

"She's asking for you."

He left the waiting room, and went to the room she was in and went to the bed.

"Yeah?"

"Who all is here?"

"Just about everybody. Goten, Marron, Gohan, Videl, mom, dad. Everybody."

Another contraction. The doctor came in, looked at the paper work.

"Well, Sam let's get this baby into the world."

In the delivery room:

"Sam you're going to have to push harder."

"I can't push any harder.",Sam strained out through clenched teeth.

Trunks was at Sam's right, her hand around his, and she was sqeezing hard.

His had was starting to turn red.

She yelled again, panted for breath,then pushed again.

"Alright, SAm just one more and you're done. Come on."
She pushed as hard as she could, her fingernails digging into her palm thought the sheet, and at the same moment Trunks lost any feeling in his hand.

They moved Sa to the recovery room after the delivery.

She had fallen asleep and Trunks was in the waiting room with the others.

Bulma and Goten were still there but the other's had gone home.

Bulma went to look in on Sam and the baby.

The baby girl lay on the bed, in Sam's arms.

Her tiny fingers were curled around her mother's index finger.

Bulma smiled and closed the door.

"How is she?", Trunks asked when she came back.

"Fine, both of them. Sam has her in the bed with her."

"So what is the baby's name?"

"Akira Michelle. I picked the first name and she picked the middle. Michelle was her mother's name."

In the room:

Sam had woken up and was looking down at the baby girl in her arms.

What little hair the baby had was a very light brown. And her eyes were a blue/green color.

"Akira Michelle. You know, Michelle was your grandmother's name. Well my mom's. But she wont be able to see you. She was taken from us. But I can guarentte that nothing like that will happen to me. I wont let it."

The baby just looked up at her, clinging to her mother's finger.

Sam kissed the girl's forehead, and smiled.

Trunks came in quietly, "Hey, your awake."

"Yeah. She is too."

He came and sat on the bed and took the baby girl into his arms.

"I just can't beileve it."
"What?"

"I'm a father. This is just too unreal. I didn't think this would happen till I want in my mid thirtie or something."

Sam laughed.

"Well, you really are a father. To a baby girl."

"She looks like you. She has your smile, and stubborness."

"Stubborness? If anybody she gets that from you. But she has your eyes."

He held her, looking down at her, and he smiled.

Sam sat up and looked at the two. She smiled to herself.

The man she loved and their new daughter, she almost wanted to cry.

Trunks looked over at her, "She's really ours. You and me."

"I know, I was the one who got her here."

"Yeah, almost breaking my hand."

"Liar. You could've handled it."

He laughed, "If she is anything like you, she'll drive me nuts."
"And if she's anything like you, I'll never any sleep."

They both laughed, causing the baby to squirm.

Sam sat right next to Trunks with her feet hanging over the edge of the bed.

He looked back down at the baby then up at the young woman who had brought the baby into the world.

He kissed Sam hard, holding the baby close to him.

Breaking apart, Sam licked her lips and smiled. She reached down and stroked Akira's cheek.

"I love you."

"I know you do. And I love you, really I do."

She took the baby and laid it down in the small bed that was standing beside her own.

Then she pulled Trunks close and kissed him almost as hard as he had her, pulling him down onto the bed with her.

They laid there in the hospital bed, Sam had fallen asleep, as had the baby, and Trunks laid there and stroked the outside of Sam's leg.

He sighed and whispered, "I'll never leave you. I swear to it."

With those last words he fell asleep.

The End

So?

I'll do a sequel only if ya'll think I need to.

Just tell me what you think.
