CrAzY-Fan-Fic-Addict- Hey, sorry everything's been so short and far apart, I can only do this in school cause I don't have my computer hooked up at home anymore, and well I have to finish my homework before I can mess around on the net. As for the Marron bashing / Trunks liking Pan, I can't ruin the ending now can I?
Anyways, I will try to be more consistent with everything now. Sorry about that, but now, on with the story.

The next couple days where like game of Cat and mouse for Trunks and Pan. Trunks, trying to find Pan, then Pan running and hiding from him. No matter what Pan had told herself, she just couldn't look at him without seeing him in bed with Marron. The image was permanently burned into her head. She knew she couldn't avoid him forever, but she just couldn't make herself feel the hurt every time she looked at him. Sighing, she walked to her locker, hoping she beat Trunks there. Pan quickly entered her combo then started to rummage through her locker throwing her stuff in her backpack, when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Swearing softly to herself, she turned around and forced a smile onto her face. She came face to face with a pair of deep blue eyes, feeling hers well up with tears but refused to let them fall.
"Hey Trunks, How's it going?" Pan choked out, the words feeling like crackers in a parched mouth. (A/N: I like crackers…. But not when your mouth is all dry and stuff, then they are all yucky)
"I don't know Pan, why don't you tell me why you have been avoiding me for the last few days?" Trunks said sounding hurt.
"Avoiding you, what do you mean? You just keep missing me that's all." Pan replied, her excuse sounding weak even to herself.
"That's funny, because every time I try to approach you, you run away like a scared little bird." Trunks said, using his body to trap her against the lockers. Pan took in a soft shallow breath, the heat of his body causing her to feel slightly off kilter.
"Ok, so you caught me, so what are you going to do about it?" Pan said, crossing her arms across her chest, as if they could protect her from the way her body was reacting.
"I want to talk to you about what happened. Give me a chance to at least tell what happened from my point of view. Can you at least give me that?" Trunks said taking a small step back, sensing her discomfort.
"Alright, I will give you that, after all, we are best friends." Pan said sheepishly. Trunks sighed and put his arm around her shoulders, then immediately knew it was a bad idea; being as he felt her physically tense.
"So, where should we go to talk huh? How about the park so you can swing, and I'll push you just like when we where little?" trunks said a little more enthusiastically.
"All right, sounds good." Pan said pasting a faux smile on her face that she knew he could see through. They where putting on an act for those around them. Pan almost chuckled when she thought of how they came to the agreement that what happened between them stayed that way after a huge rumor started that Trunks had gotten Pan pregnant. Sighing she continued to walk with him, still smiling, so those around them will think everything is just fine between these two strange best friends.
Once outside, the two walked to Trunks' convertible and hopped in, speeding off towards the park. Trunks handed Pan his cell phone and she immediately hit the speed dial code for her house. Pan's father picked up on the first ring.
"Hello, Son residence" Gohan quipped cheerfully.
"Hey Daddy, Trunks and I are going to go chill at the park and study for finals and such. Is that ok?" Pan said, asking permission even though she knew she had it as soon as she said study.
"Sure thing sweetie, just don't be home to late, ok?" Gohan replied with a chuckle. He was waiting for those to get over themselves and get together. In fact he had a bet with Bulma going that it would be before the end of the year.
"Don't worry I won't. Bye!" Pan exclaimed before hanging up. "Ok we're set, now will you please hurry up, I really do have to study." Trunks laughed as he pushed down harder on the accelerator.
"I know, I guess I could to, but then again, it would just be a waste of time, you know?" Trunks said with a shrug of his shoulders and a sharp right turn.
"Well not all of us are super geniuses like your mum and you, I mean, sure, I am pretty smart, but I still like to study just in case I have a major brain fart or something." Pan replied to him with her tongue stuck out and her lower eyelid pulled down. Trunks just laughed and pulled smoothly into a parking spot near the park entrance. Pan suddenly remembered why they had come to what had been their favorite spot as children. They weren't there just to have fun and laugh like they used to, they where there to discuss something that could be the end of the Pan/Trunks friendship. Sighing, she hopped out of the car then walked into the park, heading straight for the swings, leaving Trunks behind to capsule up the car then catch up. Pan shook her head then sat on the swing and began to brace herself for getting her heart smashed.
