Chapter two!
A/n: w00tness! second chapter! Wow, I'm happy! . Anyway, on with the story!
I awoke in a strong man's embrace. I looked up and saw Goten holding me and sleeping soundly against a tree. I smiled at him and cuddled against him. (What in the world happened? How'd I get here?) i thought. I looked around my surroundings.
We were in a field somewhere out of the city. Night took over htis side of the planet. But the thick white blanket of snow was still just as beautiful. Goten slowly opened his eyes and looked down at me with a smile.
"Hey Marron, you feeling ok?" I blinked a few times and thought for a moment. (Oh yeah, I remember earlier today a car was coming at me. But I don't remember what else happened...)
"I suppose so, but I don't remember what happened. What did happen?" I said still cuddled against his chest to keep warm. He stroked her hair a few times and sighed.
"Well, you almost got hit by a car i pushed you out of the way and onto the concreate." Goten began and pointed to the back of my head. I placed a hand there and looked at him puzzled.
"That's why I have a huge headache..." I mentioned feeling a huge knot on my head.
"After that, about 10 men jumped out of that truck with guns and shit like that. They told me to hand you over and no one would get hurt. Of course I refused. Trunks however told Pan to leave and he stayed to help me out."
I nodded to what he was saying so far. "So, this must have been when I was passed out."
"Yes, I told Trunks just to leave because I could sense a bit of fear in him. But he didn't want to leave you and I behind. Finally I had to yell at him and he flew away to catch Pan."
"Oh..." I said a bit dissapointed.
"Mhm, The men still wanted you and I refused and shot some blasts at their feet. That's when they started shooting. I flew away with you but for some reason they still chased me, and I couldn't fly that fast either with the wound in my stomach."
My eyes widened when I heard him. I moved away and saw a huge blood stain on his white shirt. I put a hand over it and made a sad face. "I'm so sorry." Then I gave him a big hug.
Goten hugged back and smiled. "It's ok, thank you for you're concern though." I cuddled him again. And for some reason, I was growing attached to him. It's hard to explain but I started to have great feelings for him. "That's how we ended up here." I smiled at him and he smiled back at me.
I stood up in the cold and looked around. To the east was Capsule corp. I could see it very clearly. I cocked an eyebrow and helped Goten up. We slowly started for Bulma's home.
Once we came in, bulma and everyone rushed to Goten and myself. After we settled in and we were given a senzu bean we began to tell the story.
"Oh Lord, I'm so happy you guys are ok." Bulma said hugging both of them. Chichi hugged Goten so tight that it actually started to hurt. Goku placed a hand on Goten's shoulder and grinned.
"You did the right thing son. I'm proud of you. You not only saved your own life, but you saved Marron's as well." Goten smiled with some proudness.
Over to myself, my mother and father were hugging me and kissing me too. Just about everyone was more concerned about me because I'm not a saiyan like Goten. If I would have gotten shot I would have died.
We were all relived that no one died. That would have been a terrible thing to remember the day before Christmas Eve. I looked around wondering about Bulla. Then I thought we never called her. But then I saw her walk downstairs to everyone else.
Bulla ran up and hugged me and Goten both tight. "I'm glad you guys are ok!" Goten and myself hugged back and smiled.
"Thanks Bulla." I said. Then I saw Trunks standing at a corner on a wall. I blinked and didn't even bother going up to him. I knew he was probably mad and also didn't want anything to do with her.
So I turned around and started talking to Goten and Bulla. After we ate dinner I decided I should head to bed. I said good night to everyone and went upstairs.
Once in the guest room, I sat on the bed and looked at a picture of Bulla, Goten, Trunks, and myself. This thought brought memories into my head and I smiled. I set the picture down and felt the knot on the back of my head.
A knock was made at my door and I told whoever it was to come in. Trunks stepped in and stood next to the door after closing it. I looked at him waiting for him to say something.
"Are you ok Marron?" trunks said sitting down on the bed. This time, I didn't smile. Instead a frown took over my face and i looked at the picture again.
"Yeah sure, I'm fine. But I wouldn't think you'd care." A confused looked ran over Trunks' face. He sighed and looked at the ground with his lavender hair covering his eyes slightly.
"I always care for you Marron. And you know, I care for you to much I think, because I find myself gradually comming onto you. If you don't know what I mean then what I'm trying to say is that I love you. But obviously you don't love me back so I guess this is where the conversation stops." Trunks stood up and walked out of the door.
I just sat there on the bed full of guilt. I had no idea he felt that way about me. I laid on the bed and sighed in confusion. (But he doesn't love me he loves Pan.) i stood up and walked out of my door and saw him.
"Trunks wait!" but Trunks put a hand up and turned around. i looked at him with guilt.
"I don't want to listen to you now. Why don't you go to Goten instead?" My face went blank and my eyes flashed in anger.
"You know what! I will, all I was going to say was that i loved you too but you know what, I don't anymore!" I walked back to my room and slammed my door shut. I growled with anger heading to my bed.
"Men can be so stupid! God damn!" I laid face first onto my bed and fell asleep. And all throughout the night I had bad dreams. One of my dreams was even of Trunks. But I killed him...
When morning came I woke up from the rays of the sunlight shining through the window. A yawn was the first thing I did and I rubbed my eyes. I stood up and decided that I'll pack my stuff and leave.
After I got my things together and got dressed, I walked downstairs and saw Trunks and Bulma. "Thank you for letting me stay Bulma. But i have to go now. I'll see you later tonight perhaps." Bulma said bye and I left.
As soon as I reached my house I walked inside and set down my stuff. I greeted my parents and went to my room. I was still angry at Trunks, very much so. I just decided to sleep until night came. And sleep i did.
At about 5:23pm my phone rang in my room. With my face still in the pillow I reached for the phone. Once I got ahold of it, i sat up.
"H-hello?" i said pushing strands of hair out of my face.
"Marron? It's me Goten." Goten sounded somewhat happy. So I listened to what he had to say.
"You seem happy, whats up?" I sat in indian style on my bed and waited.
"Well, Bulla and her boyfriend broke up today because T.J was cheating on her and was about to force her to have sex with him. Luckily she's stronger than him huh? Anyway to make a long story short, me and her are going out now. I figured she was heart broken and she needed someone like me to be with her so yeah."
There was a long pause. I was once again heart broken. I fell for Trunks and got rejected and now this. (But, I need you too...)
"Marron, you there?" Goten asked concerned.
"Y-yeah, I'm here..." I put my head down and sighed.
"Oh, ok. The real reason why I called is I just wanted to know if you were going to the Brief's tonight for the party."
"I don't know...I may or I may not." I said gloomily.
"Aww come on! Please?" He pleaded.
"Alright I'll go, I'll be there at seven."
"Ok cool, see ya!" Goten said.
"Bye." With that I hung up the phone. I wasn't exactly happy, Goten has a girlfriend and Trunks has Pan. And what do I have? Nothing. But I thought I might as well get ready to leave.
I pulled out a red jump-suit with a picture of santa on the right side of my chest. I zipped up my outfit to my chest and sprayed some Refuge perfume on my neck. I let my hair down in wavy locks and put on some lip gloss.
I got my red high heels and put those on as well. I was all ready set to go but I knew it was to early so I went downstairs and decided to go and snack on something.
Seven o'clock came and I got in my car and drove to the brief's house. Once I stepped in it was like a teen party! I thought there would be a whole bunch of adults here but instead it was a whole bunch of teens.
She saw Goten and Bulla and went up to them. "Hey guys!" I said happily and excitedly.
"Hey Marron!" Bulla said giving her a friendly hug. I smiled and looked around the house.
"This little party is awsome Bulla!" Bulla nodded in agreement. She sipped some of her red wine and pulled her blue hair behind her ears.
"Yeah, I told my mother that we needed to have a fun party this year so here it is!" I smiled and looked around. I saw a whole bunch of my friends from school here. But out of the corner of my eye I caught a glance of an older teen like myself.
I studied him for a moment and smiled brightly. (Justin!) I thought, (I haven't seen him since sixth grade!) " Be right back Bulla." And I took off to him.
When I got to him I called his name and he turned around. I hugged him really tight. He's changed a lot since the last time I've seen him. In sixth grade he was so short and skinny. But now he's tall and muscular and hot!
His hair was brown and spiked up in the front. He had green eyes and a soft face. Justin gently pushed me off of him. "Eh...who are you?" He looked at me with a confused look. I just smiled.
"It's me Marron!" Justin's eyes widened and he hugged her tight. I laughed a bit and hugged back.
"Long time no see babe! You've changed a lot." He looked at me and smiled. I nodded in agreement and looked at his friends that were standing next to him looking at me.
"You've changed too." I got a glimps of Trunks out of the corner of my eye and looked back at Justin. He smiled at her and took her hand into his own.
"Want to dance?" Just as he said it, a slow song came on. I smiled and took his hand. We started dancing to the song slowly then he stopped and suggested, "You want to go outside and dance on the porch?" I nodded happily and we headed that way.
We slowly danced on the porch and I rested my head onto his chest. I saw Trunks looking at me and I smiled both happily and also to try and make him jealous. In which I didn't notice one different expression on his face.
I looked at Justin's friends and they were smiling and laughing softly to themselves. I grew a bit curious, but I didn't even have to ask why they were laughing. Because Justin stepped on my foot hard and tripped me onto the floor.
I grasped my ankle in pain and I scowled at him. "Why the hell did you do that!" Justin started laughing and walked away. After he started to laugh, everyone started laughing.
It was truely a night that I'll never forget. I stood on one foot and hopped off the porch and started to briefly walk on the foot that hurt. I tried to go as fast as I could.
But unaware of where I was going, I tripped on a tree root and fell down. I scrapped my left knee and scratched up my hands a bit. A tear trailed down my face from pain and embarassment.
I stood up and leaned on a tree with my back faced away from the house. "I need to go home." Then a hand was placed on my left shoulder.
"No, don't go..." I turned around and I was about two inches away from Trunks' face. I blinked and frowned st him. "Look, Marron...I'm sorry about the other night...I really am. Please forgive me. And, no I don't love Pan. She's to young for me. She's 14 and I'm 18."
I sighed not knowing what to do. I was in pain and didn't really want to think right now.
"You don't have to forgive me, but I'm going to fix you up ok?" I nodded and he lifted me up in his arms and flew up into his room and carried me to the bathroom.
Trunks set me down on the floor and he reached up in the cabnit to grab some rubbing alcohol and some bandages. Trunks rolled up my left pants leg and took a cotton ball and poured some of the rubbing alcohol on it.
He gently and lightly brushed the wet cottonball over my knee. I squinched my eyes and growled softly. After Trunks took care of that, he placed a bandage over it and smiled. He helped me up and I rinsed off my hands so no infection would take place.
What I didn't know was that Trunks was right behind me. So I trurned around and looked up and kissed his lips briefly. I stepped back covering my mouth and I muffled, "I'm so sorry!"
Trunks touched his lips and smiled. "It's ok." Then he came up to me and took my hands off of my mouth and he gently kissed my lips. I was so surprised but of course I kissed back. After that was done I smiled at him and he smiled back.
He hugged me and said full of guilty, "I'm so sorry for what i've done in the past." I hugged back and nodded,
"It's ok...And I'm sorry too." Once they let go of their hug Trunks looked at her with a smile then looked away.
"There's something I have to tell you. Right now I'm going ou-" Then the door opened and Pan was in the doorway. Pan's eyes was full of anger when he saw them together.
"Trunks! What are you doing! You're cheating on me!" Trunks looked at me and I looked at him and Pan in confusion.
"Trunks, whats going on?" I demanded. Trunks sighed and looked at me.
"I was going to say, I'm going out with Pan, bu-" Trunks was cut off by me walking out of the room in anger and sadness. I turned back and glared at him.
"So you don't love Pan eh? She's to young remember? You're nothing but a liar Trunks!"
I stormed into my guest room and slammed the door. I laid on the bed sobbing. (Who knew Trunks would do something like this! And after he told me he loved me!) I finally cried myself to sleep...
