Chapter 15
Goten & Bra made their way back to the table and they all finished their drinks. They headed back to the car. Trunks insisted that Marron sit next to him in the front so Goten, much to his disgust was relegated to the back seat with Bra. Marron rested her head on Trunk's shoulder as he drove. They reached the Capsule Corp and Trunks dropped Bra & Goten there before driving Marron home. They pulled up out the front of Marrons home and Trunks turned the engine off. "Would you like to come in for a drink?" she asked. "Sure, why not." he replied & got out of the car. He followed her inside. "Mom, Dad, I'm home." she called. "Okay honey." called her dad from the lounge. Marron took Trunks through to the kitchen. "What would you like?" she asked He caught her around the waist and pulled her towards him. "What would I like?..... Hmmmmmm, how about I start with a kiss & work from there?" he nuzzled her neck. "Trunks, please." she murmured & blushed, "What if my parents should come in?" "In that case I'll have to settle for a cola then." he said. She fetched the drinks and put them on the table. While they were enjoying their drinks Krillin came in. "How was the movie?" "Good." she replied. Juuhachigou's voice floated down to the kitchen. "Krillin, I need you to come & help sort out your clothes for packing." Marron sat bolt upright in her chair and the colour drained from her face. Krillin didn't notice as he left the kitchen but Trunks did. He reached across the table & put his hand over hers. "Whats wrong? You look like you have seen a ghost." he said. "Might as well have." she replied. "Oh Trunks, I forgot all about this but we are going away on holiday in a couple of days." His heart plummeted. "How long for?" he asked quietly. "Two weeks." was the sad reply. "But it may as well be 2 years." she muttered. Trunks sighed, "Not much we can do about it." he said "Life can be so cruel at times." said Marron, "Just when we begin to get to know each other another obstacle is placed in our path." "When do you leave?" he asked. "Day after tomorrow." "What time?" "10 am." Trunks thought deeply "Then we still have tomorrow to be together." he said. "But tomorrow's Christmas day and I dont think our parents would like it if we didn't spend the day with them." she replied. She got up & walked over to the sink, her shoulders slumped & her body began to shudder as she started to cry. "It's just not fair!" she sobbed. Trunks, alarmed by her tears jumped up & put his arms around her & pulled her close to him. He stroked her hair as her tears soaked through his shirt and dampened his skin. "Dont worry ." he said softly. "The time will go quick and before you know it we will be together again." She continued to cry."I dont know if I can last that long." she whimpered. "I promise I will wait." he said. He put his finger under her chin and raised her face to his & looked deep into her eyes. "Hey I'm not exactly happy about you going either but its something that we cant change no matter how much we wish we could. I'll speak to your parents and mine and I'm sure they wont mind if we spend tomorrow evening together." She stopped her crying and hugged him close. "Thanks." she whispered & kissed his cheek. "It's going to cost you...." he grinned. She pulled back & putting her hands on her hips she stared at Trunks. "Hmmm... is it now? And just what is it going to cost me?" she raised an eyebrow. Trunks rubbed his chin.... "Well now, I'm not really sure yet but I think I can come up with something." She laughed and went to punch him. He dodged the punch and caught her arm, pulling her close. "Naughty... Naughty." he admonished and crushed his lips against hers. So caught up in their kiss were they that they didn't notice Juuhachigou walk into the kitchen. She took one look at the couple locked in their embrace and quietly backed out of the room shutting the door softly. Krillin came downstairs and headed for the kitchen. Juu stopped him. "I don't think thats a good idea." she said. "But I want a drink." said Krillin. "I'll get you one in a minute." she replied. Krillin looked at her. "Okay, whats going on?" he asked. "What do you mean?" she replied avoiding his eyes. "Your hiding something from me, arent you?" he said. "Err... No I'm not." she said. Krillin went for the door again. Juuhachigou grabbed his hand. "Trust me. You DON"T want to do that." she said. "Alright. Thats enough." said Krillin starting
to get angry and he pushed the door open. Marron & Trunks stood, still locked in their kiss. Krillin gasped, Marrons eyes flew open. They pulled apart. Marron turned away and Trunks went bright red, wishing the ground would open up & swallow him. Juuhachigou walked past Krillin & put her finger under his chin gently closing his mouth. "So, Who's for a drink then?" she said....
