Chapter 3

It has been four years since Laura started to pull her life together to become what she wanted to the most. Over the years she became beautiful and in shape from all her exercising and hard work through determination.

She had studied hard and finally became a Children's Pediatrician with a more than sufficient salary. She owns a modest house of her own not too far from her work space and uses her own nice car to travel to work.

Laura was content.

A faint smile came onto her lips as she stepped inside her car to drive off to work. However, she followed her routine and stopped at a Coffee Shop at first. She would always buy a Café Latte before heading off to work.

Laura parked her car just outside of the Coffee shop before locking it and walked inside. She walked over towards the front counter and received a smile from the register Lady.

"Morning, Sara."

"Morning, Laura. Your regular I take it?" Sara asked and Laura nodded. "Coming right up!" Sara moved away from the counter and started to make Laura's beverage. Laura let her eyes lazily travel on the menu in front of her while waiting for her Café Latte.


Meanwhile...

Unknown to Laura, Trunks and Goten are in the same Coffee Shop. They're sitting on the other side of the small restaurant while conversing and enjoying their own snacks and beverages.

"I'm telling you, Goten. I think my Dad's out to kill me. We've been training for nonstop and I barely escape his training" Trunks said while sighing heavily. His body still ached slightly from the training but by now he was used to it.

"I don't think he's out to kill you just yet, Trunks. After all you're still alive right now" Goten pointed out with a playful grin and Trunks glared at his friend. Goten really found this entertaining but only because he was free of training and his father wasn't Vegeta.

"Whatever, I'm going to get us some napkins" Trunks muttered and Goten watched as he walked towards the counter.

Laura thanked the register lady for the drink after she paid and turned to leave. However, she bumped into someone with a very strong figure. She smiled apologetically towards the person and was about to apologize until she saw who she bumped into.

Her face instantly fell and a frown replaced her smile. She recognized the familiar short lavender hair and ice blue eyes that only belonged to one person. Trunks Vegeta Briefs. The one person she was most definitely not pleased to see.

Trunks blinked a few times in his own surprise but instead of being annoyed, he's amused and impressed at the same time. To be honest, Laura was drop dead gorgeous. She looked nothing like she did in High School.

Laura turned around to leave as quickly as possible but Trunks was faster and grabbed her arm to stop her. "Hi, Laura. I'm surprised to see you're here" Trunks said and Laura gave him an annoyed glare.

"Well, there aren't a lot of redheads walking around town" Laura replied smugly and Trunks frowned slightly. "If you don't mind, I'm late for work" Laura pulled her arm from his firm grip before she pushed past him.

She was quick to exit out the front doors of the Coffee Shop and didn't even spare him another glance. Trunks stared at the door where the female rushed out and smirked. All his thoughts of getting napkins vanished and were replaced by one female.

"Damn, she's hot!"


Trunks returned to the table in silence and Goten raised an eyebrow at his friend's behavior. He glanced at the Lavender haired male's hands to see that he had no napkins once to ever.

"I thought you said that you were getting napkins" Goten pointed out and Trunks seemed to snap out of his haze. Instead of commenting on Goten's pointed out statement, Trunks sat down with his smirk still showing.

"You won't believe what just happened, Goten. I ran into that redhead, Laura from High School" Trunks said and Goten 's brows furrowed as he tried to remember where he heard that familiar name before.

"...Laura Smith? Isn't she the one who had a crush on you in High School?" Goten asked as he started to remember her and Trunks nodded. "Yeah, that's her. She wasn't too happy to see me" Trunks said as he frowned slightly and Goten gave Trunks a peculiar look.

"Not every girl you meet is going to be happy to see you, Trunks" Goten said and laughed at his friend. At times he didn't get the lavender haired male at all and at other times he almost knew him too well.

Especially when it came to girls.

"But she was hot!" Trunks said and Goten's eyes widened. "No way. Laura Smith, wasn't she overweight and really unattractive?" Goten asked as he recalled the memory of the fellow classmate of High School.

"Yes, but now she's really hot. I'm gonna ask her out!" Trunks said and a smirk played onto his lips once again. "Wait a minute, wasn't this the same girl that asked you out and then was turned down by you?" Goten asked.

"Mmhmm" Trunks said and his smirk slightly widened, almost forming a grin. "So now that you're suddenly interested, why would she go out with you now after all these years?" Goten questioned once again and Trunks frowned.

"Well don't make it sound so terrible. I wasn't attracted to her then and besides, I think I'm ready to give it a try" Trunks said feeling his determination return. Goten smiled at his childhood friend knowingly and gave him a high five.

"Go for it man!"
