Summary: Vegeta was -never- blown up. No one died. Frieza was defeated and Pan and Trunks hate each other. What could possibly be more dangerous then two Saiyans roaming around the palace, setting things on fire, and causing much more chaos? How come they're always hanging out if they hate each other?

Friendly reminded, this story is AU :]

Chapter Four: Black Holes And Revelations

Pan did not know what was going on. One minute she was lying next to Trunks, curled into his chest about to fall asleep, then the next minute, well; she was really shocked. Trunks was on top of her! Not only was Trunks on top of her, but he was pressed snugly between her legs and the way he was looking at her, she couldn't describe it. His eyes were so intense; she felt it was too intimate and wanted to look away but she couldn't take her eyes off of his own. The way Trunks fit against her body was sending shock waves throughout her entire body and she felt a familiar sensation between her legs. She couldn't believe that Trunks was making her feel this way. This was the boy who had tortured her as a child but whom she had grown to tolerate and become best friends with. She shouldn't be in this intimate position with him and yet here she was, in Trunks' bed, with Trunks on top of her.

And then Trunks was suddenly kissing her. And it was unlike any kiss she had ever experienced before. Her heart was bursting with some kind of feeling and emotion she had never felt before in her life. It felt like her whole body was throbbing and humming with passion for Trunks and Pan suddenly realized what emotion she was experiencing; love. True love, unbelievable love, like she had loved him her entire life, like he was the only person she could ever be with, and she realized that he was kissing her with the same amount of love that she felt. Her blood felt like it was tingling and on fire with the amount of passion she was feeling and when his tongue reached her mouth she couldn't resist the moan that rose in her throat or the shudder of pleasure she felt.

Suddenly, they weren't in Trunks' room anymore. They were in the kitchen, on the floor and Goten was in there happily chatting away to the two of them as Trunks kissed her as if his life depended on it. Pan wanted to stop kissing Trunks, but she couldn't. Her brain was trying to stop but her mouth just kept going. And Goten wouldn't quit talking, completely oblivious to the two of them. And he kept asking Pan if she wanted more fried chicken. He just kept asking her and asking her, "Pan, do you want more fried chicken?" She didn't understand why he kept asking her and she wanted to push Trunks away but she couldn't because her hands were in his hair and she couldn't seem to be able to control her own body anymore.

And then Pan's entire body jolted and she was suddenly awake and she was able to move. Her eyes were wide open and she realized she was practically bathed in sweat. She was still curled up next to Trunks with his arms around her and Trunks was sound asleep and he didn't have any idea that something was wrong with Pan. Pan slowly moved her body away from Trunks so she didn't wake him up and sat up as she moved to the side of his bed. She lifted her hair up to wipe the sweat off the back of her neck and fanned out her shirt so she could cool down and have a decent breath. She looked at Trunks' clock and saw that it was 7:13 and knew that Bra would be awake. Bra woke up at seven o' clock everyday no matter what day it was, just to make sure she looked perfect if any occasion were to rise up. Pan thought back to her dream before she lost the memory of it entirely.

She had no idea what kind of dream that was. All the emotions from her dream were gone and she couldn't believe she had dreamt that she felt that way about Trunks. She hadn't ever thought of him in that way, had never thought of loving him like that. She looked over at his sleeping form once more before standing up to go and talk to Bra. This was serious. She didn't know what to think anymore, about Trunks or anything. After feeling those kinds of emotions towards him, even if it was just a dream, she didn't know how to think about him anymore. She was already walking out of Trunks' room and towards Bra's as she continued re-evaluating her entire life. What if she could develop feelings like that for Trunks? Maybe Trunks was the one meant for her. She knew they were close, hell, closer with each other than some of her boyfriends had been with her. But that didn't mean anything, did it?

She could be close with a boy, especially if it was her best friend and have it not mean anything! And she knew she wasn't being a tease to Trunks. She knew how he felt about her, she knew he didn't have any feelings towards her, any romantic feelings anyway. Pan was suddenly at Bra's door and she was slightly nervous and she didn't know why. She knew she needed to talk to Bra about her dream but she knew that Bra was going to insinuate things. Pan was about to knock on the door, that's how nervous she was. Pan never knocked on any ones door, she just barged right in and here she was about to knock on her door, what the heck was wrong with her?

But before Pan could knock the door swung open and there stood Bra with a raised eyebrow staring at Pan's raised fist. Bra didn't know whether to be concerned or laugh. Her best friend, practically her sister, was about to knock on her door. Pan was still startled when the door opened and Bra finally spoke, "I felt you outside my door. It was creeping me out. You were just standing outside my door and not coming in and I was rather curious." She finished slowly, motioning for Pan to go inside the room. Pan lowered her fist, pursing her lips, before walking inside Bra's room and heading for her bed. Bra closed her door and cautiously followed Pan, sitting down across from her on the bed. "Pan? What's wrong?" Bra asked, concerned by her best friends actions.

Pan wasn't looking at her in the eye and Bra was growing more and more concerned by the minute, "Pan! You better tell me what's wrong or I swear...Pan, you're scaring me, just say something!" Bra said, her voice becoming more high pitched and her speech running together in a jumble of words. Pan noticed her friends concern and finally spoke, "Bra, I had a really weird dream." To say that Bra was angry was understatement; Bra was furious. "A dream? You had a weird dream?! Pan, I thought someone died or your were pregnant or I don't know! You're scaring the hell out of me because of some dream?" Bra practically screeched at her. Pan winced, "I'm sorry but this dream is really freaking me out Bra!" Pan said, frustrated with everything. How was she going to tell Bra that she had just imagined a dream where she kissed Trunks?

Bra seemed to forgive her slightly and asked what her dream had been about, "Well...you see..." Pan couldn't seem to form a coherent sentence and was soon stuttering more words out, delaying the inevitable of what she had to tell Bra. Bra just stared at Pan incredulously, but let her friend stutter through a couple more words before Pan finally got the the point, "I dreamed I kissed your brother!" Pan shouted, clearly concerned about it. Pan looked at Bra expectantly, but Bra just stared at her for a moment, blinking in confusion before a smile rose upon her lips. Bra was suddenly giggling and that did not make Pan happy, "Bra, this is serious! What does it mean? Why would I dream that I kissed Trunks?" she asked, hoping Bra would hear her talk over her stupid giggling. "I'm sorry, Pan. That really isn't what I was expecting to hear from you." Bra paused a moment, a smile still on her lips before continuing, "Do you want to know what I think it means?" Pan nodded eagerly and Bra continued again, "You like Trunks!" She said in a bubbly sing-song voice, "K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" She just kept singing and singing that stupid song and Pan was going to punch her in the face if she didn't shut up soon. Bra noticed her friends anger and stopped her singing.

"Pan, I don't know why you would dream that you kissed Trunks." Bra said seriously which surprised Pan, "Maybe...you like Trunks but you just don't know it yet. I do know that this dream will probably change how you look at Trunks forever. It's inevitable Panny..." Bra said, using her childhood nickname before continuing, "You've seen Trunks in an entirely different perspective and things are bound to start changing." Pan furrowed her brows, "Changing how?" She asked and Bra shrugged her shoulders, "Maybe you wont see Trunks as your best friend anymore. You could start to see him as a boy you could like or maybe you could see him as your brother. Maybe even your enemy. Maybe your dream means you're making a transition from teenage relationships to more serious relationships. Maybe you like a boy that Trunks hates. Maybe your subconscious is ready to let you know that you love Trunks." Bra said before continuing quickly, not giving Pan a chance to say anything, "It could be anything, really. But any decision really isn't up to you, I suppose. The choice is up to your heart." Pan pondered Bra's words for a minute, wanting to ask Bra what she was insinuating but she kept silent.

Pan knew one things that Bra was right about; this dream was making her think of Trunks as different and she didn't know what to think of that yet. It scared her to death, she didn't want things to change, she liked how things were right now. Pan groaned, letting herself fall backwards on Bra's bed and Bra let out a small laugh and rubbed Pan's knee, "Panny, don't worry!" Bra seemed to use that nickname when she was trying to comfort her, "Everything will turn out all right, don't stress over this, okay?" Bra stated, "And try not to act all gooey eyed over my brother!" She joked, receiving only a glare from Pan. Bra gave Pan a sympathetic smile, "Let's go get some breakfast, okay?" Pan gave her a weak smile back before the two girls stood up to head off to the kitchen.

When Trunks woke up he was alone, which he hated. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes as he turned over and saw that it was already 9:23 and his stomach suddenly growled in hunger. But before he could even think about sitting up to get ready for his day so he could eat some breakfast his door burst open and he assumed it was Pan. It wasn't Pan, however, he was very close in his guess. It was Goten who was walking through his door and staring at him, "What? What are you still doing sleeping man? It's nearly 9:30!" Trunks was groaning, rubbing his hands over his face and through his hair as Goten practically jumped on top of him on his bed, "What, were you drinking last night? You look like shit, late night, eh?" Goten said, sitting beside him and nudging Trunks with his elbow. Trunks was staring up at his ceiling before inspecting Goten, "Yeah, you look like shit too." Goten chuckled at Trunks' words, "You can thank your father, he set up a sparring session with me and my dad, and the two ended up ganging up on me. Beat me to a pile of pulp. Can you believe that?" Trunks chuckled, "Yeah, I can. Our fathers are tricky and sneaky. You really wouldn't expect it from your father, but he likes surprises, doesn't he?" Goten could only nod in agreement.

"What were you up to last night, who did you drink with?" Goten asked curiously. Trunks tried to chose his words carefully, leaving out the part about that pathetic excuse for a Saiyan cheating on Pan, "I was with Pan, we hung out a little, had a few drinks is all. Basically the usual." Goten smiled, "The four of us need to pick a night to all hang out, we never seem to have a schedule that allows that though." Goten said and Trunks could only nod, "Yeah, actually it's more like you and Bra always have a date and want to be alone with each other." Goten shrugged impishly, "Yeah well, can you blame me?" Trunks nodded in understanding, "Yeah, I know, she's your girlfriend, but make time for your best friend dude." He said jokingly and Goten rolled his eyes, "You sound like a chick." Trunks got all gooey eyed and turned to his best friend, "Goten! Honey bear, why don't you ever want to spend time with me?" He said and Goten shoved Trunks off of the bed, "That's creepy." Trunks was already standing up and heading off to his closet to change his clothes.

Trunks was pulling on a clean pair of pants before Goten spoke again asking the most random question Trunks could ever think of, "Trunks, do you ever think of the future?" Trunks was at a loss for words, he had no idea what to say to his best friend, "What about the future, Goten?" He said, peaking his head out of the closet at the boy still on his bed, "I don't know, well, its just...the future. You know. Finding a mate, bonding, children, the future...I mean, I know Bra is the one. But what if she were to change her mind? What would I do then? And you know, sometimes I worry about you." Trunks scoffed and he knew Goten heard him, "Goten, Bra would never change her mind, believe me, I know my sister." Trunks said, "Thanks man but, seriously, the real reason I brought up this conversation." Goten said and Trunks could only sigh, "You always say no girl is ever good enough. Trunks, is anyone ever going to be good enough?" Trunks was looking through his shirts but he wasn't really looking through his shirts, he wasn't even paying attention to them. He was thinking about what Goten was saying, "I don't want to offend you or anything, but it seems like you're always comparing other girls to someone else, someone in particular." Trunks already knew what was coming, "To Pan, right?" He said before Goten could say it.

He knew that was what Goten was going to say because that was what everyone said. "Hear me out. You're comparing all these girls to Pan. Why?" Trunks was staring at the shirt in his hand in confusion, as if the shirt could answer the question for him. No other girl was as witty as Pan, as strong as Pan, as funny as Pan, as strong minded as Pan, as powerful as Pan. No girl could ever be as good as Pan. Then Trunks felt like the breath was being sucked right out of him and he suddenly couldn't breath because he had suddenly realized something. He had always broken it off with every girl because they hadn't met his expectations. And he suddenly realized that all his expectations were set by Pan. He suddenly knew that Pan was perfect, she was the one that set the bar, and she was the one. Trunks felt like his brain was going to explode with his revelation and he didn't even know that Goten was talking to him again.

All he could hear was the thumping of his heart as he brain seemed to throb along with his heartbeat and he felt like all his blood was rushing to his head and he suddenly couldn't hear. He was so overwhelmed by this revelation and his body's reaction to it that he felt lightheaded and almost fainted. "Trunks, are you still listening to me?" Trunks nodded but realized Goten couldn't see him, "Yeah. Yeah, I'm listening." Trunks said, pulling his shirt over his head before walking out of the closet and into his room. Goten was staring at him weirdly, "I just want you to think about what I said okay. I don't want to see you unhappy. I mean, I know you're happy, but I know it's hard being single and unable to find someone for yourself." Trunks nodded at Goten's words, "Especially with your expectations." Trunks could only snort in response and glance at Goten, "Come on." He said, motioning his head towards the door, "Let's get some breakfast, yeah?" Goten flashed Trunks a smile whilst jumping off the bed, "Good idea, I'm starving." Trunks laughed, patting Goten on the back as he followed Goten out of his room towards the kitchen.
