Chapter 10 “Phone Time”

Trunks lay on his bed staring at the ceiling. He rolled over and picked up the phone then dialed in a home bound number.
  “Hello?”
  “Hey Bra.”
  “What pea brain?”
  “What should I get Marron as a gift. You know, a just to show I care gift.”
  “Why should I tell you?” Bra asked, her voice rising in suspicion.
  “Come on. Chocolate and roses are to normal. She has all the roses she could ever ask for right now from some one she doesn’t know. I want this gift to be one that she would say 3 years from now, ‘hey remember when you got me.....’ ”
  “Oh, one of those kinds of gifts. But you haven’t even officially been on 2 dates. Aren’t you kinda throwing yourself on her?”
  “Well I don’t want one like that. Plus we will be having more dates. Plenty more.”
  “Well, I don’t know then. Maybe you should make her something. Hey ask Goten. He’s the one who’s been rolling in th girlfriends lately. Well not right now but a few weeks ago.”
  “Well, what would you like to get in your third date?”
  “I’d like him to give me a good night kiss, for him to tell me he loves me and maybe a small stuffed animal. But that’s me, so don’t do that.”
  “Uh ok. Thanks for the help.” He says as he hangs up the phone. He sat there for a few seconds then dialed Goten’s number.
*****
  “You what?!”
  “Mom, I’m fine. Bulma took me to the hospital and they fixed my up. I’ll be on crutches for a while. And don’t worry, I am going to school.”
  “And your at her place aren’t you?”
  “Yeah.”
  “Well just watch out for Vegeta.”
  “To late. At dinner he remarked on our similarity. But other than that he has done nothing.”
  “Ok, well sorry to cut this chat so short but your father and I are going out to eat, so we’ll be hearing from you later, k?”
  “Ok. Love ya and miss ya. Tell daddy I love him too.”
  “Ok I will.”
  “Oh and mom. If you and dad can, I’d like you 2 to come down to see my new place. There is plenty of room so you could spend the weekend down here.”
  “I don’t know.......”
  “Please! Please! Please! Please! Please!”
  “Marron.” 18 sternly replied.
  “Sorry.”
  “Well then you have persuaded me. We’ll be down there this weekend.”
  “YAY!!”
  “Well we’ll see you this weekend then.”
  “Ok bye.” and with that she hung up the phone. Not two seconds after she put the phone down it rang.
  “Hello?”
  “WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN BULMA’S LAB!!!!!!” Marron froze when she heard the voice on the other end.
  “ANSWER ME!!!!!!!!”
  “I’m in the room that I am staying in for the night.” She heard the dial tone. * I will make not make and contact that I can avoid* She pulled the paper out of her pocket and dialed.
  “Hello?”
  “Hey there, did you have a nice talk with who ever you talked to?”
  “Mom and dad? Yeah. They are coming down this weekend so we need to find a place to hold it. So you talking to Goten?”
  “Yup. Hold on I’ll click you over.” Marron sat there for a few seconds then heard a click and Trunks laughing.
Goten was singing.
  “Some day my prince will come. Some day my prince will come. Till then you ’ll hav-”
  “Uh Goten?”she interrupted
  “What?! Marron?!”
  “My what a lovely singing voice you have.” Marron laughed.
  “Why thank you. Hey Trunks what do you think?” The only answer they got was the click of the phone.
  “Trunks?” He asked again.

No answer.

  “Hmm, wonder where he is.” Marron spoke. As soon as she finished the sentence there was a tapping on her door.
  “Come in.” she said. The door opened and Trunks walked in holding his phone. He smiled sheepishly. “It broke.”
Marron smiled and Trunks closed the door then walked over and pressed a button on Marron’s phone before sitting down beside her.
  “Hey Goten. Your on speaker phone.”
  “Alright. So we’re all here, right?”
  “Yup.” Marron and Trunks said in unison.
  “Goten you should see Trunks’ hair. I put it in dread locks after you left.”
  “Aw, how cute.” Goten squeaked.
  “You have no idea.” Marron laughed. “Anyways, my parents are coming this weekend.”
  “I can make Friday and I know that you can, Goten. So where do we hold it?” Trunks asked.
  “Anyplace that can comfortably hold about 20 people and enough room for Goku and Vegeta to be able to chase each other.” Goten stated. Trunks and Goten laughed.
*****
 “Where is that boy?” Vegeta growled. “He’s getting lazy. He needs to work out.” He heard Trunks’ laugh and followed it to a guest room. He listened for a while.
  “They don’t need to know about it.” Trunks said.
  “Right. Got it?” the blonde from dinner’s voice said.
  “Got it. Well I guess I’ll be seeing you guys around.” he heard Kakarot’s son’s voice say. The two voices said bye and then there was a click. For a few moments he just heard whispers, then he heard foot steps head toward the door. Trunks jumped when he saw his father standing there. Vegeta “hmphed” and stormed off.
  “Oh Trunks come here.” Trunks turned around and walked back to where he was sitting. Marron snatched the ‘broken’ phone out of his hands. She plugged the cord back into the receiver. “Broken? Uh huh.” she smiled.
  “Well I guess I’ll be seeing you tomorrow.” he said. He bowed and ducked out of the door.

She laughed to herself and changed clothes then tucked herself into bed.
