" COULD YOU LOVE ME ? "Written By: Debs-dragon Disclaimer: I don't own so you don't sue. Chapter 20
"Oh Trunks... tell me you are not a dream." said Marron. "I'm really here." he replied. She looked at him then laughing pulled him close burying her face in his neck. He put his arms around her and held her trembling body close to his. Her tears bathed his skin. "I can't believe it." she said. "I keep thinking that I'm going to wake up in a minute and you will be gone." Trunks ran his finger down her face, tracing a line down her cheek and across her lips. He brought his lips to hers and lightly brushed them across. She closed her eyes and sighed. He brought his lips back and kissed her again, she responded and opening her mouth slightly deepened the kiss. He put all his heart & soul into the kiss, willing her to feel how much she meant to him. Her fingers ran through his hair pulling him further into her embrace. At last they parted, each aware of how much the other loved them, the need for words long gone. It was as if they could read each others emotions. "Oh Trunks, I missed you so much." she said. "I missed you to Marron." "How long are you here for?" she asked. "Err... well... I hadn't thought about that yet." he said. "I should go & see if they have any vacancies." "Stay in our chalet with us." said Marron. "Theres heaps of room and I'm sure that mom & dad wont mind." "I don't know." he said rubbing his chin. "Come on, lets ask them." and Marron got up. taking Trunk's hand in hers she led him back up the beach to the chalet. Juuhachigou & Krillin were sitting out the front. Krillin was reclining back dozing in the sunshine while Juu was reading a book. "Ummm... Mom?" said Marron. "Trunks is going to stay for the rest of the holiday but he hasn't got anywhere to sleep. I thought he could sleep in out chalet with us, we have plenty of room. Would that be okay?" Juuhachigou thought for a minute. "Yes I suppose so but you will have to sleep on the couch though as its only a two bedroom chalet." Trunks grinned "Thanks. I dont mind in the least." He squeezed Marrons hand. "Come on." said Marron. "its hot, lets go swimming." She tugged at Trunks but he stood there with a silly look on his face. "Whats wrong?" she asked "I just realised that I didn't bring any clothes or anything else with me." he said. Marron punched his arm. "Why you idiot. Looks like I shall have to take you shopping then. " Trunks looks sheepish. "Do we have to? I'm not all that into shopping." Krillin looked up. "I can relate to that Trunks!" he said. Marron put her hands on her hips. "Well your the one that came without anything." she said "So come on it wont take long." Trunks rolled his eyes and looked at Krillin for help. Krillin waved his hands in the air. "Don't look at me bro, your on your own..." he laughed. Trunks sighed. "Okay. You win." Marron squealed and dragged him off to the islands shopping centre.
Juu smiled to herself as she watched them go. A couple of hours and several shops later Marron finally decided that they had enough clothes and necessities to keep Trunks going for the rest of the holidays. They headed back to the chalet each loaded down with bags & parcels. Juu raised an eyebrow when she saw them return but said nothing. Krillin opened one eye and saw a bag laden Trunks go past. He chuckled to himself and returned to his dozing. Marron & Trunks went inside and dropped the bags on Marrons bed. "Here. I'll make some room in my closet for all of this." she said. They unpacked and soon everything was neatly put away. "Phew." said Trunks as he sat down to relax. "I'll get us a drink." said Marron. "I still can't believe you are here." she said. "Believe it." he replied. "If you need further proof then check out the major blow out on my credit card." he laughed. She blushed. "I'm sorry about that. I suppose we did get a bit
carried away." "Don't worry about it. I'm not." he replied. "What about we take that swim now?" "I'll just go and get changed then." she said and skipped off to the bedroom. Juuhachigou came in. "Thanks for coming Trunks, you have no idea how worried we were getting about Marron." Trunks stared into his empty cup. "Yeah it hasn't exactly been easy for any of us." he replied. Juuhachigou smiled at him. "From what your mother told me over the phone Trunks I believe thats an understatement." Trunks looked up & laughed. "Well I suppose I havent been the easiest of people to live with either these last few days." Marron came in wearing her lemon coloured swim suit. "Aren't you even changed yet?" she said to Trunks. "Oops, sorry. Wont be a sec." and Trunks dashed off to the
bedroom to change. They spent the afternoon playing around in the warm tropical waters. Marron was so happy, she stayed close to Trunks continuously touching or kissing him as if trying to assure herself that he was really with her. As evening began to close in so they made their way back to the chalet. Krillin had just got out of the shower. "About time you two showed up." he said. "Whats up dad?" asked Marron. "Hmm, thought you would have forgotten." replied Krillin. "It's the New Years Eve dinner and dance tonight." he said. Marron put her hand over her mouth. "Oh gosh, I had forgotten." she said. "Don't worry you still have a bit of time up your sleeve." said Juuhachigou, But I suggest you get moving and hurry up and start getting ready now." Marron headed for the shower. A little while later they were all waiting in the lounge room for Marron. Juuhachigou was wearing a full length red velvet gown that had a low cut V shaped neck line and long sleeves. Krillin wore his cream trousers, white shirt & cream jacket while Trunks wore black pants, white shirt and had a matching black jacket slung over his shoulder. "Come on Marron! We will be late!" shouted Krillin. "Coming!" she called back and she came out of her room and approached her parents. Trunks gasped when he saw her. She wore a full length gown of emerald green satin, it had a split up the side that stopped at mid thigh. The bodice clung tightly showing her curves and leaving one shoulder bare it covered the other shoulder before continuing down into a full sleeve. She walked up to Trunks & took his arm. "Lets go! I'm famished." she said. Trunks smiled, "Me too." He swallowed, "Wow you look gorgeous." She batted her eyelashes at him...... "Your quite the dashing young man yourself." she teased. They proceeded to the resort restaurant for dinner
