Chapter 7 Results
Erin ran down the stairs and rushed into the lab to look for Bulma. Trunks wasn't far behind her. He had gotten up after she ran out of the room. Erin found Bulma sitting on a stool and looking at something. Trunks had caught up with Erin by this time. He was standing beside her. Erin "Bulma?" Bulma turned around and smiled at Erin. Bumla "Good Erin I'm glad you came so fast." Erin "Well… what am I?" Bulma "Well I guess someone is a little impatient." Erin "Can you blame me?" Bulma "No I can't." Erin "Well.?" Bulma "How should I put this….." Erin "Just tell me!" Bulma "Erin your a sayian. Erin "Oh." Bulma But I do have good news for you." Erin "What's that?" Bulma "You aren't related to Vegeta or Trunks. So you and Trunks can continue dating." She smiled at both of them. Erin and Trunks both anime fall. Erin "what are you talking about!" Trunks wrapped an arm around her shoulders and dragged her out of the room. Erin "Trunks! Why did u do that? Your mother thinks me and you are going out." Trunks "Yeah I know." Erin "So why didn't you tell her we aren't?" Trunks "Because you didn't tell me what was going on between you and Goten." Erin "That's your big reason?" Trunks "Yes it is." Erin "Ugh… you are the most difficult person I have ever met!" With that she stomped off. Trunks smiled to himself and went to look for his father to tell him the news.
Trunks found Vegeta in the GR room training. Trunks knocked on the door. His father opened it and let him in. Vegeta "what do you want brat?" Trunks "Mom has the results to Erin's tests. She is sayain." Vegeta smirked and said "I'll start her training tomorrow. She'll have to be strong so she can bear you an heir." Trunks blushed and said "What are you talking about!" Vegeta "You and the onna are going to be mates one day and since you are my son and the only fighter left in the family you and her are going to have to have a child to live up to the sayain name. Seeing how your sister is not much of a fighter. She has more human in her then sayain." Trunks "Father are you saying you're proud of me?" Vegeta "Sometimes brat you do something right. Like picking that female that is if you can handle her." Trunks "Father I know I can handle her but I don't want to. She's more then I want deal with. I think she suits Goten more anyway." Vegeta "I know you really don't believe that. But fine have it your way. Give her up to the Clown's brat." Trunks laughed and shook his head. He left to go look for the others.
Erin was waiting outside for Goten to come pick her up. She was sitting on the stairs when he showed up. He landed and said "hey you." Erin stood up and walked over to him and said "Hey whats up?" Goten "Nothing. You?" Erin "Just waiting for you to get here. Took you long enough. Trunks was asking questions again." Goten laughed and said "I know he's watching us right now. But don't look or he'll know we know." Erin laughed and said "I don't see why he's making such a big deal out of it." Goten "It's because he likes you." After he said that he picked her up and took off.
Goten landed and put Erin down. Goten "You know you could have asked Trunks to teach you." Erin "I thought he would be to busy. Now let's get this lesson started." Goten "Alright. But I need to know are you a sayain?" Erin "Yes I am." Goten "Okay then teaching you this should be pretty easy." Erin "Okay so how do I start." Goten "Okay all you have to do is control your energy and use is to push it under you and that's all you have to do." Goten floated a few feet above the ground. Erin gave him the yeah and I'm suppose to do that how look. Goten came down and said "Sit down." Erin sat down and Goten sat in front of her. Goten "Alright try to push out some of your energy. Like this." He held his hands out and formed a small ball of light in his hands. Erin stared and then tried it. Goten "Relax. Don't try so hard. It will come to you. But you have to relax." Erin "that's easy for you to say. You can already do this." Goten laughed and so did Erin. Then in her hands formed a ball of light. Erin "Goten look, I did it!" Goten "Yeah you did. Now just harness that and push it under you." Erin did and she floated a few inches. Goten "Now try moving around." Erin started to go higher. Goten smiled as he watched her. He knew she loved every minute of it. He wished Trunks could see her like this. After about two hours Goten said "Okay Erin lets go its getting late." Erin "okay I'll race you back." After she said that she took off. Goten yelled "Hey no fair. Wait up."
Erin beat Goten back and was waiting in front of the front door. Goten "No fair. You had a head start." Erin "So you have been flying longer then I have so I think it's fair." Goten "Erin can I ask you something?" Erin "Yeah sure Goten. What is it?" Goten "Well….Would you ever consider going out with Trunks?" Erin "I don't know. I mean maybe if he asked I guess would." Goten "So then you like him right?" Erin "I didn't say that but he seems nice enough." Goten "But could you like him after you spent time with him?" Erin "Yeah most likely. Why?" Goten "No reason." Erin "yeah I'm sure." They walked inside together. Trunks came down and asked "Where did you guys go?" Erin "Goten taught me how to fly." Trunks "Really? I could have done that for you." Erin "I thought you would be busy and I didn't really want to bother you." Trunks "Well next time just ask if you need anything. Okay?" Erin "Alright." Well I'm going to go look for the guys. I'll see you two later." She went upstairs to look for the guys. Goten and Trunks watched her go. Goten "I know something you don't know." Trunks "What's that?" Goten "Erin said she would consider going out with you if you asked her." Trunks "What? Why would I ask HER out?" Goten "Because you like her that's why." Trunks "I do not. I thought I did but I don't." Goten "Yeah right." Trunks "whatever I don't care if you believe me or not." Goten laughed and said "Hey I gotta head home. My mom is gonna kill me if I'm late again. But I'll see you tomorrow when her training starts okay?" Trunks "Okay Buddy see ya tomorrow." Goten "Bye" Trunks "Bye" Goten took off and went home. Trunks went up stairs to his room to think about what Goten had said about Erin. Trunks thought maybe I should ask her out. Wait what I am I thinking. I can't ask her out. But I guess she is sorta cute. In a way.
Erin went up to her room and laid down on her bed. All she was able to think about was what Goten had asked her. Her thoughts kept drifting back to Trunks. She sat up and said out loud "Why can't I stop thinking about HIM!" Trunks heard her and came in her room and said "Who? Goten?" Erin "No boxer boy." Trunks "Then who?" Erin "That's none of your business. So don't worry about." Trunks "Alright I get the hint Fox. Sorry for caring." He turned to leave until Erin called to him "Trunks I'm sorry I didn't mean for it to sound like that. I just have a lot on my mind right now." Trunks "Its okay. Hey that's the first time since we met that you have called me Trunks instead of Boxer boy." Erin "Yeah I guess it was. But don't get use to it." Trunks smiled and Erin smiled back. Trunks "I think this was the first civil conversation that we've had that wasn't an argument." Erin "Yeah your right again Trunks" Trunks "So now what?" Erin "I don't know. Do you wanna do something?" Trunks "Yeah sure. How about a movie?" Erin "Sounds good. Should we get the others?" Trunks "Nah. Rob and Max are still scared to come out after what happened and Jay is staying with them. My dad won't let Bra out of his sight for long either." Erin started laughing and so did Trunks. Trunks "So what about that movie?" Erin "Alright just let me change first okay?" Trunks "yeah sure" Trunks left her room and closed the door. Erin changed into low cut jeans and a white tanktop with a cream colored jacket over it. She took her hair out of its ponytail and brushed it really quickly and went down stairs to find Trunks. He was waiting in the kitchen for her. Trunks "I like the new look. You should leave your hair down more often." Erin "Thanks." Trunks "alright let's go." They left and went to the theater. They bought tickets to go see the Village. They found seats and watched the movie. After the movie they left and Erin said "I have seen scarier things under Jay's bed. That movie was a disappointment." Trunks laughed and asked her if she was hungry. She said "Yeah." Trunks "where do you want to go then?" Erin "I know! Trunks I'll take you there but can we fly instead of taking the car?" Trunks "Yeah but we have to be careful." Erin "Okay follow me then." Then went behind a building and took off. Erin led Trunks to a boardwalk near her old apartment. They walked down and they stopped at a hot dog stand. Erin "This place has the best hot dogs in Japan." Trunks smiled and said "Well I guess you're easy to please." She smiled and said "what do you want on yours." She ordered for them and paid the guy. She handed Trunks his. Trunks "I would have paid for this." Erin "I know but you paid for the movie so I'll get this. So now we are even." They walked down to the end of the pier and watched the ocean.
Erin "This is my favorite place." Trunks looked down at her and said "I can see why." Erin "I use to come here just to look at the stars. It helps me think." Trunks just nodded. Erin shivered slightly and Trunks draped an arm over her shoulder and pulled her closer to him to keep her warm. She didn't protest. Instead she moved closer and wrapped an arm around his waist and lean against him. He smiled at her as she watched the waves. They sat down with their feet hanging over the edge. After a while Trunks noticed that Erin had fallen asleep against him. He smiled thinking to himself she trusts me enough to fall asleep here. I guess Goten was right I do like her. A LOT. He picked her gently and flew them home. He went into her room to put her in bed. He moved her sheets down and placed her in bed but she was gripping his shirt and wouldn't let go. Finally Trunks gave up and got in next to her. She rested her head on his chest and he put his arms around her and pulled her closer. He fell asleep with her in his arms. That was the most peaceful sleep both of them have had in a long time.
