Chapter 7

Pan sat by the window on the observation deck with her knees up against her chest, looking out at the stars. They would reach Planet M-2 in a couple of hours and she hoped everything would be back to normal by then. I can't believe Grandpa walked in on us like that! Why am I so hot again? I haven't felt like this for a long time, but ever since I got back I've been feeling kind of weird. Then there's Trunks, he sure runs hot and cold with me. I think if Grandpa hadn't walked in on us, we would've…No! No way, Trunks thinks I'm a kid; he would never…he's just messing with me, right? She sighed, "I wish I knew what was happening!"

"Hey, there you are! I thought you found a hole to crawl in or something."

"Now is not the time Grandpa!" She growled.

"Whoa!" He waved his hands in submission. "I was only kidding, no need to snap at me."

"I'm sorry. I'm not feeling well again and I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with Trunks. I'm sorry about earlier Grandpa; please don't be mad at him. He did nothing wrong and it's partly my fault too. I know he's so much older than me, I promise it won't happen again.

"Don't make promises you can't keep Pan-Chan," Goku sat down on the other side of the window seat. "Come and sit with your Grandpa."

She complied moving closer to him and laying her head on his small shoulder.

"Do you love him?"

"Don't you think I'm a bit too young to know what love is?"

"No, I don't. Look at Chi Chi, she loved me since she was a little girl, even before I knew what it was," he chuckled. "I know what's been happening with you and Trunks and I know about the kissing."

"Grandpa, I never meant to, you know. I only asked him because I wanted to learn…"

"It doesn't matter to me Pan; I don't want to know why you did it. Do you love him?"

She sighed, "I love him, more than anything. It hurts so much knowing he'll never feel the same way."

Goku smiled, kissing the top of her head. "Trunks is only trying to do what's right, but I'm afraid he's in way over his head. At the moment he's acting on pure instinct and he has a lot of regret after."

"I don't understand?"

Goku sighed and explained the situation between her and Trunks. Everything he was told and all he knew.

Pan listened intently, frowning at certain things. She couldn't understand why no one bothered to warn her about this. "Wait, you said Bulla rejected Uncle Goten because he's not a virgin, so that means I will reject Trunks right?" She asked hopefully. The thought of being intimate with him was both scary and exciting, her blood was literally boiling.

"No you won't. Trunks is…well you know. Don't make me say it!"

Pan burst out laughing, falling on the floor. "No way, no way! You're telling me he's nearly thirty and never had sex before?!"

"That's not very nice Pan-Chan. Trunks is kind of old fashioned when it comes to love and he chose to wait. You should be happy."

"Grandpa!" she blushed.

Goku chuckled then looked at her seriously. "This is not a joke Pan, the two of you have already bonded. There might be no other way out; you can go to him now if you want, I won't stop you. He is suffering more than you. The males always have it worse; at least that's what Vegeta told us."

"I can't believe you are practically giving me permission to have sex with a man fourteen years my senior! Are you crazy! You have got to be kidding, no way am I sleeping with him." She huffed.

"Ok, ok geez…I'm only trying to help! I'm going to check on Trunks."

"Oh my Dende, I can't believe this is happening! What am I supposed to do now? My birthday is in a few days; maybe I should hide up here until then. This could be my chance to have him though… but it's for life. Am I ready for such a commitment? He's years ahead of me, I've never even had a serious boyfriend. Besides he doesn't even love me, or want me. He'll only be doing it because of his Saiyan hormones! Wait, do I really love him then? I think I need to lie down…"

###

Goku unlocked the Gravity Room, "Trunks…" He found Trunks sitting against the control panel with his head in his hands.

Trunks looked up through blurry eyes and watched as Goku approached him. "I'm so very sorry for my actions earlier."

"It's ok Trunks, I understand. I've explained everything to Pan and she's sort of well just screaming things mostly. I don't think she really knows what she wants too."

"She must be livid! She probably hates me. I couldn't control myself Goku, and I don't know if I'll be able to next time I see her. Her scent is so strong now, it's driving me insane!

"I know, and she's also trying to comprehend the situation, but she's young and it's not easy. I told her to stay up in her room until Planet M-2; I think you both need the distraction. Come on let's go, I'm starving!"

###

Trunks bit his lip; he had managed to get through the past month without losing control. Now it was all over. She turned fifteen while he was supposedly a metal slab; her heat cycle was now complete. Then why do I feel so empty? They had managed to avoid each other for the most part and only spoke when necessary. "I need to see her!" He went to his room to get something first, and then proceeded up to the observation deck.

###

"Pan…"

She looked up when she heard his voice and shut her diary, hiding it under her pillow. "Hi…"she smiled at him as he stood awkwardly in the makeshift doorway.

"Hi, can I come in?"

"Err…where's Grandpa?"

"He's sleeping."

"S-sure, come in…"

He let out a breath, he didn't know he was holding and sat beside her on the bed. "This is for you." he handed her a shoe sized box. "I've been collecting it since the start of our journey."

"Thank you. What's it for?"

"Happy Birthday," he whispered. "I'm sorry we never got to spend it with you."

"You remembered?"

"Of course I did." I've been counting the days. "Open it."

She opened the box slowly, inside was an item from almost every Planet they visited. A beautiful lilac scarf from Imecka, a dress from Gelbo, similar to the one Trunks had to wear. Some honey from the Monmaasu and the red apple from M-2. There was even some sand in a bottle from Rudeeze.

"Don't let Giru see that apple ok," he chuckled.

"Trunks, I don't know what to say? Thank you so much!"

"It's the least I could do," he shrugged looking at anything but her.

She put the box down and turned to face him. "I'm glad you're ok Trunks."

"What do you mean?"

"On M-2, when I saw your slab shatter, I-I…" She grabbed his hand. "Thinking you were dead, the thought of not seeing you ever again. In that moment it felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest!"

He squeezed her hand. "Nah, if anything were to happen you could always wish me back." He grinned, trying to lighten the mood.

She closed her eyes trying to stop the tears and embraced him. "I don't ever want to live without you…I love you…"

"I'm fine Pan; see I'm not going anywhere." He grabbed her arms, untangling her from his neck. Searching her eyes and seeing nothing but love and devotion. It was scary to think that someone could love him so deeply. "I should go," he couldn't think of anything else to say. He didn't want to hurt her.

"Please stay with me tonight." She begged

"That wouldn't be wise Pan. I don't know how to control my urges, for some reason I'm still feeling the effects of your heat cycle which should've ended by now. You must understand, my Saiyan instincts will take over and I could hurt you in the process. You're so young with your whole life ahead of you and I don't want to take that away."

"I trust you Trunks; you're all I live for. I don't care if you don't love me."

He wasted no time capturing her lips, kissing her deeply. Her arousal was driving him crazy, he was trying to take it slow but his Saiyan side had other plans. He laid her down gently trailing kisses along her jaw and down her neck, licking and nipping while breathing in her scent.

She moaned pushing her hips up, grinding against him, her eyes rolling back in her head.

He grabbed her hip trying to create as much friction with their clothes on. He had never felt so turned on, all he could think about was how right this felt. Her age never even crossed his mind. She was a Saiyan woman ready for mating and she was his. He growled ripping her top and bra off, exposing her small breasts. Everything about her was petite, but she was perfect in his eyes. He ran his hand up her side until he reached her breast, massaging it with his right hand while taking the other one in his mouth.

"Oh Trunks…" She moaned pulling him up again and kissing him passionately; she couldn't get enough of his lips, grabbing hold of his shirt.

He sat up allowing her to take it off completely.

She stroked his abs with her fingertips and they rippled under her feathery touch. He was gorgeous, his body flawless. She wanted to see all of him, placing her hands at the top of his sweat pants, ripping them in a swift motion.

He bit his lip, scrutinizing her reaction.

She looked at him wide-eyed, wrapping her hand around his thick girth. "Will it hurt?"

"I-I'll be gentle, but we can stop if you want to. It has to be now though, I'm losing control." He growled

"No, please I want you!"
