pure. Thanks! I'm going to Florida for over a week so I hope this will
tide you over. Please review!!
Chapter 17
Goten pulled away quickly taking a step back. "I'm sorry I didn't mean for that to happen." He whispered as he turned to leave.
Bra tugged on his arm feeling the tightened muscles underneath his shirt. "I didn't mind." She said as she blushed.
Goten sighed stepping back. "This can't happen. Your too young."
Bra stiffened, "No I'm not! I'm old enough to have a boyfriend!"
Goten smiled sadly, "I don't want to be just your boyfriend."
Bra's heart almost stopped in anticipation as he stepped towards her again. "I want to be so much more."
His large hand cupped the back of her head as if she where an infant as he bent down and kissed her one more time.
Bra stood in shock as he turned and walked back into the house. Slowly she lifted her fingertips to her lips where she could still feel his warmth. A sly smile crept across her face as she headed to her room.

Pan tried to stifle a yawn as she sat next to Trunks. Trunks turned to her smiling, "Guess I interrupted your sleep huh?" He asked.
Pan opened her mouth to reply as the yawn sneaked out. She covered her mouth tactfully. Embarrassed she only nodded.
"We'll I guess I better get you into bed." Trunks said regretting his use of words as Pan's eyes shot fully open.
"Uh, I mean to your own bed." He added sheepishly, making Pan relax a little.
He stood up offering her his hand as he pulled her up from the couch. He paused for a second as an urge to sweep her up into his arms filled him but he pushed it aside. He led her to one of the closed doors and opened it as he nodded inside.
"Sorry there's only one room, I'll sleep on the couch." Trunks said looking a little guilty.
Pan stared at the single bed in the room as something began to dawn on her. "You had this planned didn't you?" She asked turning to him with her arms crossed against her chest.
Trunks sighed remembering that she could read his thoughts so he couldn't lie to her. "You're right, I did plan this. I went to speak to your father and he said that he wouldn't allow me to see you. I was desperate and I wasn't thinking clearly at the time. If you want I'll take you home."
Trunks ran his hand through his hair nervously waiting for her to explode. Her response surprised him.
"You went to my father?" Pan sighed as she went in and sat on the bed. She shook her head in disbelief. "I can't believe after all that has happened he's still trying to control my life!"
Trunks took a small step into the room. "It's not that bad, at least your father cares about you." Trunks said sadly thinking of his own father. "I can't blame him though. If I had a daughter as beautiful as you I would be overly protective too."
Pan blushed at his comment and threw a pillow at him to cover it up. He caught it with ease. "Night Trunks." Pan said lying on the bed with her back to him.
"Night." Trunks whispered reluctantly leaving the room.

Gohan sat looking out the window at the lifeless sky. It seemed so empty now that the moon was gone but it had to be done. Especially since they had their tails back. Trunks might have some control over his altered oozaru form but Pan would not. He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up into Videl's anxious eyes.
"I guess I screwed up again." He said sadly.
Videl squeezed his shoulder. "Well we all make mistakes." She said softly, "No, one blames you for trying to protect our daughter. But sometimes you have to let go."
Gohan sighed. "I bet she hates me."
Videl smiled, "I don't think Pan is capable of hating anyone, she's too much like Goku. Don't worry, she'll be back."
Gohan looked at his mate. "I don't deserve you."
Videl smiled as Gohan swept her up in his arms and carried her to the bed. "I know." She replied giggling as he started to nibble on her neck.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Goten lay in bed thinking. He so wanted to tell Bra how deeply he felt about her. The real reason why he didn't tell them that he knew IT before was because of Bra. So that he could feel her young pliant body against his as he flew, to prolong the few moments that they had to spend together.
Goten was brought out of his thoughts as the house started to shake rhythmically. He covered his head; at least someone was having a good night he just hoped it wasn't his parents.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Pan awoke early the next morning refreshed. She stretched her arms above her headed and then padded into the other room her tail dragging behind her. She smiled seeing Trunks still asleep on the couch. He had tangled the covers around his waist exposing his chest and legs to greedy view. Pan blushed as she wondered what he had on beneath his odd garb. She was grateful that he was asleep and unable to read her thoughts. His hair was mussed, and he had one leg on the floor and his tail was curled around his thigh. Sighing, she reluctantly she pulled her eyes away as she headed to the front door.
The suns rays were shining through the windows as Pan went to open the door. The site was breath taking!!! She opened the door inhaled the fresh air from outside. They were on a beach and she could see the waves crashing angrily against the land just yards from their door. Funny she didn't hear them last night; of course she did have other things on her mind. Looking down at her apparel she debated on walking out in the sand with her nightgown on. Seeing no one else around she decided to go for it.
Unfortunately, she was grabbed from behind and drug back into the house before she could take one step.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Bra headed down to breakfast. She had woken up extra early so she could shower and prepare herself before seeing Goten. She wanted to look perfect.
She stopped before entering the kitchen to yawn. The shaking had kept her up most of the night too. Stepping into the kitchen she was greeted by her mother who seemed more radiant than usual.
"Good morning princess! Your up earlier than usual!" Bulma said greeting her youngest daughter.
The others were eating the mounds of food on the table. Bra glanced quickly at Goten as she told everyone good morning. A slight frown crossed her face as he didn't even take a breath between bites much less acknowledge her. Eyeing the empty seat next to him she headed for it.
Bra smirked at the 'adults' at the table. "Actually mom I'm surprised that all of you are up so early. Seeing as you were up all night too." Bra said cattily.
Bulma, Ch-chi, and Videl's faces all turned bright red, and Bra smiled as she felt Goten shudder next to her. Life was good.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"What are you doing?" Pan asked as she turned to Trunks.
"I thought you didn't want to go home." Trunks stated casually.
" I don't want to go home yet but what does that have to do with me going outside?" Pan asked puzzled.
Trunks grinned, "We'll aside from your improper dress, your father would be able to since your ki."
Pan crossed her arms over the sheer material as she noticed Trunks eyes repeatedly going to her chest.
She frowned as she realized that's how her father knew where she was all the time. It was no fair! "How come he can't find me now?" She asked.
"Actually this is a new invention of mine. The house has a built in ki shield. They won't be able to sense you unless we leave the building."
"Well how come they can't sense your ki if we leave?" Pan asked irritated at being held prisoner.
Trunks smiled, "I can hide my ki, you haven't learned that yet."
"So I'm trapped here?"
Trunks grinned again, "Actually I made two inventions, the other one is a portable ki suppressor. As long as we have them on no one can locate us. Well except for Dende, but I don't think he would tell."
"If you can hide your ki how come you have to wear one?" Pan asked as Trunks pulled open a drawer and pulled out two black cuff-looking devices.
"If my ki is suppressed low enough for them not to detect me I wouldn't have enough energy to fly. This way I can fly undetected."
She watched as he attached one to her arm. All of a sudden she felt really weak and dizzy. Trunks helped her over to the couch.
"Don't worry, it's just a side effect it will go away in a couple of minutes. It won't happen once you get used to it." Trunks said as he snapped his own on his arm.
Pan just nodded wearily as she lay down to stop the room from spinning.

Bra looked over at Goten shoveling food into his mouth. She pouted he hasn't paid any attention to her at all. All the males were stuffing their faces and the females were chatting away. Bra smiled deviously, she lowered her hand under the table and squeezed Goten's thigh.
Thankfully she was fast as she pulled her hand away. Reflexively Goten jerked his leg up, his knee crashed into the wooden table nearly cracking it in two as he choked on his food.
Bra feigned innocence as she caressed his back out of site of the others and leaned towards him.
"Are you okay?" She asked worry evident in her voice.
Goten pounded his chest with his fist as the hunk of meat made it's way down his throat and he gulped in fresh air. The other males didn't even seem to notice his distress but the women were smiling as they paid rapt attention to the pair.
Goten nodded stumbling from the table. "Yeah, I guess I'm full." He said his face still red either from the incident or lack of oxygen.
Bra frowned as he retreated from the room.
