Crushes Can Hurt!

:Ring Ring Ring: Pan rolled in bed, ignoring the ringing her cell phone was making. :Ring Ring Ring: She huffed and threw the covers over her head. Ring Ring Ring She pulled them down to her waist and looked at the clock. Who would be calling her at this hour:Ring Ri-:

She decided to pick it up this time. She cleared her throat as she clicked the talk button. "Hello?" she asked sleepily.

"Y-You never told me that Old Yeller died!"

Pan pulled the phone away and stared at it as if it were the first she had justseen the device. She checked the caller ID. "Trunks?"

"Yeah! You never told me Old Yeller died! I'm so sad now."

"Are you crying?"

"I'm not meaning to!" He yelled at her, sobbing. That was embarrassing for them both. "I was going through your movies and I saw that Old Yeller movie and decided to watch it, so I did, and now I'm sad."

Pan sighed and it made the phone crackle. "I can't believe you're crying. I never cry."

"Shut up! And you do too."

"Jeez, I guess the hormones must've kicked in hard for you." She sighed and turned on her night lamp. "So what do you want me to do?"

There was a small pause. "Nothing."

"Then why did you call?"

"I dunno."

Pan groaned and closed her cell phone and pulled the covers over her head. "Idiot, he gives women a bad name."


Pan was driving in Trunks' car, which she had wanted to drive ever since he got it, to pick up Bra. Apparently she had a surprise for her, or him to be exact. She pulled up to the restaurant that Bra told her to meet her at, but when she got out of the car, she was immediately confronted by the blue haired girl.

"Trunks!" Bra ran up to her, "Alright, you're here!"

Pan raised an eyebrow at her, "Uh, you're in a good mood this morning."

Bra just smiled at her, "Well, I might be able to get a new office with a discount since Mom and Dad won't let me borrow any more money."

Pan wanted to laugh at this. It was about time that Bulma and Vegeta put a stop to her allowance. "Alright, so then why am I here?"

Bulma laughed nervously and rubbed the back of her neck, "Well, you see, the woman at the office is a big fan of yours and, well-"

Pan narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms, "Bra, you didn't do what I think you did, did you?"

"Just one date, I promise!" Bra clapped her hands together, begging.

"No way! I'm not gonna waste my time just so you can get a bigger office!" Pan walked over to the door and was about to open it, but Bra grabbed her by the waist.

"Please, Trunks, please!" She tugged her away from the door, "I promise I won't ask for anything else and it will just be one date! Please?"

Pan sighed and removed Bra's hands and turned to her. "One date," she put one finger up, "Just one and you owe me big time."

Bra smiled and nodded, "Alright, sounds good to me. She's in there and you must spend the entire day with her and drop her off at her house tonight. Her name's Victoria Stanton." Bra pushed Pan towards the entrance of the restaurant. "Go get her tiger."

Pan grumbled and walked in. She looked back to see Bra climb in her car and drive off. She grumbled again for Bra leaving; she could've at least stay at another table or something. She walked up to the front desk where a woman smiled at her.

"Welcome to Mazuki's, how may I help you?" She had short curly hair and braces on her teeth.

Pan removed her sunglasses. "I'm here to meet someone. Victoria Stanley, I think."

The woman ran her finger down the list. "We don't have a Stanley, but we do have a Stanton. Is that who you're looking for?"

"Yeah, that's her."

"Follow me please."

Pan followed her to the smoking section and got a big whiff of nicotine. She showed her to a table where a blonde young woman sat with a cigarette in her hand, looking out the window. Pan jumped when she saw who it was.

"Vicky?" Pan asked out in astonishment. Today was a school day, so why was she here? Better yet, how did Pan get herself to date one of her friends?

Victoria looked up at her and smiled widely and stood up. "Mr. Briefs, how are you?" She stuck her hand out and Pan shook it. "I'm so glad you made it. I'm not bothering you, am I?"

Pan sat down in front of her, "Um, no actually." How dare she skip school! And just to get set up on a date with Trunks, too! She's evil! "So, you own my sister's new, or actually wanting to get, office?"

Victoria smiled, "Actually my daddy owns it, but I can definitely talk to him about giving it to her for half price. We go to the same gym."

Pan smiled, and mentally laughed. She also went to the same gym with them. Bra went to gyms to check out boys, and Victoria the same. Why I am friends with these people? "Oh, really? So what do you do?"

"I'm actually a student," she said as she buttered a roll.

At least she's telling the truth about this. "Really? What school?"

"Tokyo Fine Arts College."

Pan wanted to fall out of her seat. There it goes, right out the window. Okay, gotta act like Trunks. What would Trunks do? Her mind instantly drifted off to a bracelet that had 'W.W.T.D.?' She focused it back on her date. "Really? So you're interested in art?"

She took a small bite of the roll and swallowed it. "Well, actually I want to be a writer, a novelist more like. I've been writing all my life, but I only show my closest friends my work." She gave Pan a cute, flashy smile. "I'm a little nervous about showing it to other people."

She never showed me any of her work! What, am I not her friend? "But if you won't let anybody else read your stuff, then how can you get it published?" Pan also tried the buttery rolls.

Victoria smiled at her again, "Well, I'm working on that actually. I have this great idea to send works in anonymous to this club at my school where they publish short stories called Voyages."

Okay, I'm starting to get a big case of déjà vu over here. "Well that's nice." Pan wasn't sure what to say to that. Nothing added up, everything that Victoria said was basically a lie. She told Pan she wanted to be a model, not a novelist; in fact she couldn't write an essay paper unless Pan looked over it. And she had no idea what the Tokyo Fine Arts College was until Pan said she wanted to go there after she graduated. And Pan had submitted anonymous stories to-

That's when Pan stopped breathing for a minute and swallowed the giant bite of roll she had in her mouth. Victoria was mimicking her! She was doing everything Pan did and said!

That sneaking little-

"Shouldwe order now?" Victoria got Pan's attention again. "I'm getting a little hungry."

"Oh, right." She lifted up her menu and peered over the top at the girl in front of her. I hope you choke on a crouton.


After lunch, Pan had to take Victoria on a ferry from one beach, to the next so she could buy a bathing suit. When she said she wanted to stay at the beach longer, Pan nearly flipped. That meant she had to wear swimming trunks!

Sadly though, they were at the beach and Pan was wearing dark blue swimming trunks that went down to her knees. Victoria was wearing a low cut red bikini with flowers on it. And the only thing they seemed to be doing was tanning. After awhile, Pan got tired of baking in the sun, so she decided to get in the ocean.

"Hey, I'm gonna go see how the water feels like," she said to Victoria.

Victoria raised a hand to block out the sun and squinted her eyes. "Alright, tell me if its cold."

Pan stood up and walked in the water. When it reached her thighs, she got a 'new' cold sensation. She decided to shake it off, and tried not to blush. She put her hands above her head and dove into the water. It wasn't too cold, but it would be much more comfortable if it was warmer. She dove under a wave that was coming to her and went back up for air.

But she didn't see the next wave and it toppled her over, and the worst thing happened.

Pan had lost her trunks.

"Eek!" She dove back under so only her head was sticking out. "Cold, cold, cold! Where'd those shorts go?" She looked around but couldn't find them anywhere. This cannot be happening! No. no, no!

"Mr. Briefs, are you alright?" She looked up to see Victoria at the shore, waving a hand in the air.

Pan immediately blushed, "Um, uh, I'm fine, Vicky, just fine!"

"Is the water cold?"
"Um, yeah actually. It's really cold in the deep end."

"Then why don't you get out?"

"Uh, I'll get out after a few laps. I haven't exercised in days."

"Oh silly, you don't have to exercise, you look great already."

"Oh, ha ha ha, thanks, but I'll stay in here for a little while." Pan ducked her head under and made sure no one was around. Okay, I've got to think of something fast. She put to fingers to her forehead. This better work. She disappeared.

Except she didn't go where she planned to go. Instead she fell on the roof of her house, and by her house, that meant, Pan's house.

"Ah! Oh no!" She covered herself up, but then realized what she was doing. Eew! I'm touching it! Gross!

"Honey, did you hear something?"

"No, did you?"

Pan's face went completely white. Why did her parents have to be home? Shouldn't her dad be at work? And why can't her mom go shopping once in awhile?

"I could've sworn I heard a thump on the roof," Videl said, "Go see if a tree fell on the house."

"Alright, I'll see."

Pan heard the front door open and close and she went behind the house and lowered herself down. She was hanging by her hands when she heard her father coming behind the house. Slowly she moved her hands to move her as far away as she could. But when she got to the side of the house, she couldn't go any further, or Videl would most likely see a hanging naked Trunks through the kitchen window.

"AAAAHHH!"

Pan jumped down and ducked under the window of the kitchen. Oh no! Oh no! She saw me! Oh damn!

Gohan's footsteps ran back to the front of the house. "What is it honey?"

"Kill it! Kill it!"

"Kill what?"

"Over there!"

Pan gulped, Oh no, I'm done for!

To be continued…

(A/N): I would like to thank Tanja88 for sending me the email to finish this little ficcy of mine and scan who seemed to be the only one who got the small joke od Dende going "oh me." Also, I know many of you think I got this idea from Freaky Friday, and yes the two are VERY similair, but in truth, I got it from a Charmed episode, last year,where Leo and Piper switchedpowers and I thought that would be cool if that happened to Trunks and Pan, but they'd have to do more than powers, thus, "Switched!" was created. Infact, I hadn't seen Freaky Friday until somewhat after I wrote this fic. Can you beleive it? Well thanks again everyone for all your wonderful reviews and I'll try to update sooner, I've just been a little busy with work, yay summer's here.
