Friendship, Anger, & Love
Chapter 3: Friendship and Love
A/N: I have updated chapter 3 to make it longer, because chapter four was so small! Please read the changes!
Pan tossed the third bag empty bag of potato chips to the floor. Trunks and her were lying on her queen-sized bed, chatting about the past four years, just like nothing had ever happened between them.
"No, but seriously…" Trunks pulled another chocolate-covered strawberry off of the plate.
"I missed you…" Pan looked at his slowly try to get the chocolate off without harming the strawberry. 'That looks real sexy… but why am I thinking this?'
"Mmm… same here…" he said, mouth full. "But… wait…," he swallowed, "I thought you were mad at me all this time."
"Yeah…" Pan nodded, sorrowfully. "I thought I was, but it wasn't worth it, seeing how much fun we are having now… and I realize how much I missed you…"
Trunks nodded. "Yeah…" He thought about what he had said. "It was wrong of me to do what I did…" He pouted, slightly.
Pan shushed him. "If you say you're sorry one more time… I'm going to have to kill you…"
"Sorry…" Trunks said, pushing his limits.
"Oh… now you're going to get it!" She grabbed a corner of a bandana she had lying around. "Tug-o-war… you, me, now!"
Trunks put down his strawberry and grabbed the bandana. He tugged once, and Pan came flying toward him, landing into his chest. "God, you suck!" Trunk said, now playfully tickling her sides.
"Ah! Stop!" Pan said as she tried to pull away. He was too strong… and, besides, she liked being where she was.
He obliged and wrapped his arms around her playfully. "I missed you so much…" He whispered into her ear.
She giggled. "That flatters me!"
He laughed. "So what has been goin' on in the wild world of Pan Son recently?"
"Oh, you know… this and that…" She made a 'I'm too popular for this kind of thing face' and rolled her eyes.
"So, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Nah…"
"Have you had one?"
"No…" Trunks was shocked. Pan, looking the way she did had never had a boyfriend. "What about you… Tell me seriously…"
"No, I don't have a boyfriend…" he said, jokingly.
"God, you're stupid…."
"Oh, thanks… no, I don't have a girlfriend… haven't dated since I left…"
Pan felt her heart become lighter. Trunks, with his reputation, was open. But just because he hadn't dated, didn't mean he hadn't slept with every girl he saw.
"Oh, by the way…" Trunks said, grabbing another bag of chips and pulling the opening apart, "Do you want to go to the carnival with me… just as friends…" He said, afraid of what happened last time happening again.
"Absolutely…" She said, picturing a romantic ride on the Ferris wheel.
"I was thinking Bra and Pan could come along too, but I haven't seen either one of them to ask… Are they living together?"
Pan nodded. "Bra's pregnant with Uncle Goten's kid."
Trunks laughed, but then realized they weren't married. "That's not very funny…" he said, correcting his outburst.
"Yeah, I know… so she won't be able to make it, and Goten won't want to come if she's not going… they're getting married once the kid's born, so that's good…"
"Well, it'll just be us two, again…" he sighed, pretending to be bored with always having her alone, but really, he enjoyed it.
"What? I'm not good enough for you?" Pan said, sarcastically, looking over her body.
"Naw, you're too good…" Trunks found an opportune moment to kiss her, but decided not to, after what it had done last time. So, Pan took advantage of it and followed through with a kiss. "You're such a hypocrite…" Trunks said, laughing.
"Times change… I'm not 'Panny' anymore…" She said, happy with her actions.
"You'll always be Panny in my eyes…" He said, kissing her again. Pan giggled as he kissed her ear and whispered into it, as to keep it a secret, "Is Pan still a virgin?" He pulled away, being sure to keep her reaction into consideration.
Pan looked surprised, but she let it go. She nodded. "I don't know why, but I kinda was saving it for someone I was closer to…"
"That would be the smart thing… I wish I had done that…" Trunks sighed. "So who do you think this special person is?" Trunks said, secretly praying it was him.
"I think I always wanted it to be you…" she whispered as she kissed his lips.
Pan broke the kiss and tugged at the base of Trunks' shirt, as if asking, 'Can I take this off?' Trunks nodded as he gave her one last kiss on her forehead. She pulled the shirt over his head, revealing his well-built chest. Pan ran her fingers down his chest looking it over carefully.
"What?" Trunks said, touching her hand on his stomach. "You've seen my abs before…"
"Yeah…" Pan said, innocently. "But not like this…" She kissed his lips.
He chuckled as their noses touched. "You haven't changed a bit, Panny…"
"What?" Pan was too lost to hear anything.
"Nothing…" He said, looking into her eyes as though he saw her soul.
"Okay…"
Trunks removed her shirt and looked, thoughtfully it her. "I love you…" he said, whispering.
"I love you, too…" she said as he kissed her forehead.
He slipped her shorts off of her legs delicately. She smiled up at him lovingly as he scanned her body overtop of her. "Are you sure this is what you want?" He asked.
Pan nodded.
The next day…
Pan woke up to see Trunks staring at her face. He mouthed the word 'hi' and smiled. Pan giggled. She was happy, for the first time since he had left.
Trunks pulled her closer to him and kissed her forehead. "I love you…"
Pan smiled. "I love you too…" she whispered. "We have to get going to have breakfast with Goten, though… remember?" She said, still not wanting to move.
"I don't want to move, though…" Trunks said what was on her mind.
"Me neither… but I sort of think that we have to…" She said, kissing his lips, but starting to get up at the same time.
"Kay…" Trunks said, also moving to get up. They both stopped. "Can't we just cancel?" He laughed nervously.
"No, we can't cancel! Get the hell up!"
"Fine!" Trunks said, finally moving to get up.
Pan ran toward the shower and climbed in after making sure he was really getting up. 'Was what I did right?' She questioned as she shampooed. 'Hell, is anything I ever do right?'
Trunks turned off the guest bathroom's shower. He reached for the towel and dried off his body. 'Shit… I hope I didn't do anything I'll regret later…' He said, recapping their night. He sighed. It was too late to change anything now.
