Chapter one
Disclaimer: …
A/N: My fourth story. I'm going to update it along with my third one. Anyway, this story is going to be updated once a week so yeah… Just telling you now.
He sat at his desk and stared at the computer screen. Today was suppose to be his day off but his mother had called in to tell him that the documents he supposedly 'lost' had been found. He grinned at that thought. Pan really knew how to get him out of work when she wanted her way. She was bored and he was busy. The only way he could go hang out with her would be if he finished in time. Her definition of finished differed from his. In other words, her plan was to pretend they went missing. Bulma had been furious when she had heard but none the less, she let him have the rest of the day off. How his mother had found them was something which intrigued him. After years of working with computers, he would of at least been able to pull that one of.
Today was different though. Trunks had wanted to spend time with his fiancé, who went by the name Kayla, but instead he was to spend the day in the office. He had proposed to her a month ago but the wedding had been delayed. She had been disappointed but had pretended to be fine with it. The day after the bad news he had purchased her a diamond necklace and her bad mood had disappeared.
"KNOCK KNOCK"
"Come in!" He shouted. The frown on his face didn't waver. How could someone interrupt him when he had specifically asked for no visitors. He had said no one and he had meant it.
His secretary who was a short plump lady walked in. She was grinning and he couldn't understand why. "Your fiancé is at the door waiting. She wanted to know if she could come in."
The frown on his face disappeared immediately and was replaced with a smile. "Of course, tell her to come right in." In a way he was a bit frustrated she had come by when he had told her their plans had been cancelled but he couldn't just tell her to leave.
Kayla strutted in right after the lady had left and went to sit on his lap. "Hello Trunks!" She said in a sweet voice. "I was wondering if we could go shopping today, just me and you."
Trunks sighed and rubbed his head. He had somehow gotten a headache during his short conversation. "I thought I told you I was busy. I have a lot of paperwork to finish and having you here isn't helping." She gave a scowl. Something told him he would have to rephrase his words if he didn't want her being mad at him for the rest of his life. "I mean you're so beautiful that I won't be able to concentrate because I'll be too busy staring at you." She gave a smirk this time and he knew he had said the right thing.
"If you put it that way, then I guess I can understand. Anyway, if you don't have time then I'll see you later." Kayla stood up and walked out the door before banging it shut. She didn't even give him time to say goodbye.
"Woman!" He grumbled. After the words had slipped from his mouth he instantly thought of his dad. Trunks shook his head and smirked. He was definitely hanging around his dad too much. "I'm going crazy!" He mumbled before turning back to his computer and typing furiously.

"Marco!" Goten shouted as he searched the waters for his niece. They were at Bulma's having a swim. She had decided to invite a few people over but they hadn't been able to find Trunks. Instead they took a dip in pool. Bulma had said he was in the office and probably wouldn't be around.
"Polo!" Pan shouted back. She was sitting in a chair nearby and was trying hard not to laugh. The rules were you couldn't get out of the water but she had broken that one and so many others ages ago. "Give up Uncle Goten. You're never going to find me."
"I wouldn't be surprised why." Bra muttered from the chair next to her. The two of them giggled. "I wonder why he didn't use his energy to try and find your ki?" The two of them laughed even louder and a grunt could be heard as Goten knocked his head on the concrete.
"Are you okay Uncle Goten?" Pan asked as she rushed over to him. Tears had begun to form and were still falling at the corner of her eyes. She couldn't contain the laughter and her sides had also started to ache.
"I'm fine!" He answered back as he gave a heart-filled grin. It was funny how he could smile even with a large bump on his head. "You little cheater!" Goten said as he laughed as well. "The rules were you couldn't go on land. I played by the rules so why didn't you?"
"That's why you never win!" Bra sniggered.
"Hey I win!" Goten pouted. "I won the last time we were here. When I was playing with you, remember that time. Well do you?" She grinned at him and stopped talking for a moment.
"Hey, I wasn't feeling well. You can't count that time." She gave him a light punch in the arm. He grabbed her waist and threw her in the water. She resurfaced and gave him a glare. Pan laughed loudly and grabbed her sides. Goten then turned his head around and threw her into the water as well.
"You are so dead!" The young girls shouted. They huddled together and thought of a plan to get back at him. He gulped nervously and backed up a bit. He bumped into someone and turned to see it was only Trunks. "Hey Trunks. I thought your mom said you were in the office. What are you doing back so early. Skipping work huh?" He nudged his friend and Trunks frowned.
"No, I forgot some papers at home and I had to come back for them." He sighed. "I can't believe she made me do it today. Why couldn't she give it to me some other day. "Anyway, are you guys having fun?"
"Yeah, why don't you join us. I don't think Bulma would mind that much." Trunks raised an eyebrow. "Actually you know what. Maybe that work is more important." He ran back to the pool. The girls gave him another glare and he grinned. Then without warning he jumped in and made a big splash. More laughter could be heard as the three tackled each other. Goten had the upper hand as he dunked both their heads under water.

"What the hell is this suppose to mean?" Trunks asked himself. He had spent nearly an hour on the same sheet. It was a shame his table was set up right in front of the window. He could see everything from up there. That was, all the fun and splashing.
"You times it by two you moron."
He swung his chair around and came face to face with a certain Raven-haired girl. She was grinning from ear to ear and he couldn't help but smile.
"How did you figure it so fast?" He asked amused.
"I study calculus for a reason you know!" She rolled her eyes and sat on the chair next to his. "Besides I noticed you seem to be taking longer than necessary. If you needed help you should've just asked."
"So you would've hung out with me rather than swim if you had the choice?" He tilted his head and beamed. She was quiet for a second.
"Do you want my help or not?" She asked annoyed. He had obviously noticed the redness on her face. He turned his chair back around and chuckled. "Besides I've had enough swimming for one day." Her face had cooled down a bit and she only dared to look at him then. "So, where's Kayla. I haven't seen her around for a while."
"She went somewhere with her friends because I was too busy to go shopping with her. I guess she isn't into the computer crap. Besides, she would've only whined some more even if she was around." The smile on his face faded a bit. "Anyway, it doesn't really matter."
"You too busy for your own fiancé? Now there's something worth talking about." Pan laughed as she made herself more comfortable. "Anything you want to talk to me about? Maybe about a certain fiancé, who's supposedly mad at you." She raised an eyebrow.
"She thinks I work too much and I don't spend enough time with her. What do you think?" He waited for a response.
"Well in my opinion, I think you work okay hours. If I know her, which I do." She gave a grin as he rolled his eyes. "Then in order to make her happy again you should buy her a nice gift. If I'm correct she already has a necklace. What about a ring, no wait a bracelet. That's actually a pretty good idea. Buy her a nice silver bracelet with little crystals decorating it."
"You really know what to say don't you!" He laughed as he went over to her and started tickling her senseless. She giggled loudly and tried to swat his hand.
"Stop it, stop it!" She said in between gulps of air. "I'm getting a headache." Her face turned green and he instantly let go. "Fooled you!" She laughed before running out the door. He finally realized what had happened and ran out after her.

"Ha, beat you to it!" Goku shouted happily as he grabbed the last chicken wing.
Vegeta gave him a glare and quickly stood up. "That was mine, now give it back!" He snapped as he made a grab for it. There was a rock beneath him and he tripped over it. Goku only laughed louder. "You stupid baka!" He screamed. "You made me trip over!"
"What is going on?" Bulma asked as her and Chi-chi made their way over to the table. They both had scowls on their faces. "Explain this at once!" She screamed.
"Vegeta stole my chicken wing!" Goku pouted. He had an innocent look and Bulma smiled.
"Vegeta, give him back the chicken wing. This is not how you treat your guest. Especially not to someone like Goku." She stood with her arms at her side, giving her husband a not so happy look.
"But, he stole mine. Why should I give him back what's mine. He's the one that owes me one." He stuttered. Then as quickly as he had said that he went over to Goku and was prepared to punch him in the face. Goku on the other hand had sensed this and moved over to the left, making Vegeta fall over once again.
"Too slow!" The man laughed before sitting down and eating again.
"Men!" Chi-chi mumbled. Her and Bulma were giving each other weary looks.
o
"AHHH!" Pan screamed as she ran through all the rooms with Trunks hot on her tail. She was still laughing which gave her hiding spot away.
"I've got you now!" Trunks grinned as he tackled her to the ground. He began to tickle her all over again and she began to cry, tears of joy that is. "Now say sorry and I'll let you go. You know you can't escape my evil wrath." He attempted an evil laugh.
"I'll get away even if it kills me!" She cried.
"What's going on here?" Asked a not so sweet voice.
The two immediately stopped what they were doing and turned around. Kayla stood with her arms crossed and a scowl could be seen on her face. Something had obviously made her mad and Pan had no intentions of finding out.
"Kayla, nice to see you again!" The young girl coughed nervously. "Anyway, I'll be going now so yeah!" She shifted her foot and began to walk off. Looking back she saw the death glare Trunks was giving her. He clearly did not want to be left alone in the awkward situation. "That's for payback!" She muttered. With his sayian hearing he could hear her. Then grinning again she jogged out of sight.
"Care to explain yourself?" Kayla asked as she continued to stare at him.
