Marron and Mika were walking to the library.

"I canft believe James; the all star QB of the football team asked you out on a date!" Mika
yelled.

"Mika, like I told you before, itfs just a little thing." Marron started. "Ifm just going to help him
with his homework, then were done!" Marron said, trying to hide her smile.

"Whatever Marron, whatever." Mika said.

Before Marron could say anything else, a red convertible came up to them. The top
opened and they saw James.

Marron started blushing. "Hey James."

"Hello ladies, would you ladies like a ride to your destination?" James asked.

"Sure! I would!" Marron said. She threw her bag in the car and hopped in the front.

"How bout you, Mika?" James asked.

"Well, actually, no thanks." Mika said. "Ifm meeting someone at that restaurant over there
and itfs like 2 stores away, but thanks anyway."

"Okay, ciao!" James said, and took off.

Marron turned around and waved at Mika. She gave Mika one of those "Thank you, but I
hate you anyway" looks. She turned back around and put her seatbelt on.

"So, Marron, to the library?" James asked, looking at her.

Marron smiled. "To the library."

~*~*~*~*~

Trunks was walking down the street. He just went to a deli and bought a quick sandwich for
him and Goten. Even though they were using Gotenfs car, Trunks was the one driving.
When he was walking, he saw Marron and James, in one car, headed to the library.
Trunksf mouth dropped open and he almost dropped the sandwiches. He was in shock.
"WHAT THE HELL?!?! WHAT THE HELL IS MARRON DOING WITH THAT DAMN
A**HOLE?!?!?!?!" Trunks thought angrily.

"Yo, Trunks!! Give me my sandwich already, dude! Ifm starving!" Goten yelled.

Trunks dropped out his gaze and looked at Goten. "Sorry, man, I was in shock." Trunks
said. He walked to Gotenfs car and hopped in. He gave Goten his sandwich. He started
the engine and went off. Goten opened the radio to some really loud music and started
eating his sandwich.

"Where we going?" Goten asked.

"To the library." Trunks answered.

"LIBRARY!?!?!? WHY THE HELL ARE WE GOING TO THE LIBRARY!?!?!" Goten
shrieked.

"To follow Marron." Trunks answered in an angry yet calm voice.

Goten got more interested. "Why are we following Marron?"

"Because I have no idea what the hell shefs doing with that damn bastard James." Trunks
answered angrily. "First of all, I thought she didnft like him. Second of allc" Trunks looked
at Goten. "Hefs a dick!"

Gotenfs eyes widened. "Chill out Trunks! Your getting a little angry there." Goten looked at
him. "Maybe your just jealous!"

"Jealous? Of what?!?!" Trunks asked.

"Well, therefs 3 options, your jealous James has her, or your jealous she already found a
guy for your bet and you havenft, or both." Goten answered.

"Whatever Goten." Trunks said back. "I could get any girl, at anytime!"

Goten looked at Trunks. "Your acting weird, VERY weird."

Trunks looked at Goten. "How am I acting weird?"

"Well, your usually shy around girls, your never THIS determined, even though it is a bet, to
get just ONE girl." Goten answered.

Trunks didnft answer, he just kept silent.

"Yo, Trunks, you want your sandwich?" Goten asked.

"No, you can have it." Trunks said. "My hunger just disappeared."

"Okayc" Goten said drooling. "Looks good!"

~*~*~*~*~

Goten and Trunks got to the library and Trunks took out 2 sunglasses.

"Whatfs that for?" Goten asked.

Trunks put the one with a dark purple tint on, and handed Goten the one with a dark green
tint. "Just put it on!"

Goten shrugged and put it on. "Well, how do I look?" Goten asked.

Trunks looked at him. eUghcgay." Trunks said laughing and went out of the car.

"Excuse me!?!?! I donft care what you say! I donft look gay!" Goten said. He pointed to a
guy with some girly looking shorts. "Thatfs gay!"

Trunks laughed. "Whatever Goten."

"What?? It is!"

Trunks and Goten walked in the library, and saw Marron. "Well, well, well, therefs little
misscACK!!" Trunks yelled. A girl with a cart accidentally bumped into Trunks.

Trunks rubbed his head. "Ouchcstupid booksc" Trunks said.

Goten cracked up. "Ugh, make sure to remember one thing Trunks, watch your step."

"Ifm sorry, are you okay?" The girl asked. She was a tall lady, about the age of 32.

"Yeah, Ifm fine." Trunks said standing up. He looked at Marron, she was still flirting with
James!! "Whatfs so good about that damn pink haired raisin head?!?! She didnft even
notice me!!!" He yelled in his mind.

"Yo, Trunks, we may want to get seated." Goten suggested.

Trunks looked up at Goten. "Oh, yeah, I knew that." He and Goten walked to a table 5
tables away from Marron and James.

Trunks pretended reading a book, while listening to James and Marronfs conversation.
Goten on the other hand, was flirting with one of the librarians witch was a student at the
school.

Trunks heard everything that they were saying.

*~*

"I really enjoy writing poetry and short stories, but ofcourse I never get any good comments
from Trunks. Itfs always, eHow sappy could you get?!?!f, or eThat was corny Marron, donft
you write anything else besides Love poems?f or eIt was cool, I guess, I donft really like
sappy love poemsf." Marron said.

"He doesnft really sound like a good friend to mec" James started off.

"What?? Actually Trunks is a great friend, even though hefs a stupid jerk." Marron laughed.

*~*

"STUPID JERK!?!?" Trunks said in his mind.

Goten was back and pretending to read a book, and laughed quietly. "Trunks, did you hear
what she said?? She called you a stupid jerk."

Trunks didnft say anything.

"But, although despite that, I agree with her!!"

"What?? Why??" Trunks asked.

"You are kind of mean to her, when it comes to her poetry, but then when were alone, you
tell me you really liked it! Like that one poem called, "Starry Starry Night" that she wrote,
when she asked your opinion, you said you didnft like it! When she left, you said it was
sincere and really good!" Goten reasoned.

"So? Your point?" Trunks asked.

"My point iscyou should be more honest!! Like me! Everyone wants to be me!" Goten
said laughing.

"Goten, nobody wants to be gay." Trunks joked.

Goten raised an eyebrow. "And no one wants to be buttmonkey like you either, Trunks."
Goten said back.

*~*

"Thanks for helping me with my homework, Marron." James said. "I really appreciate it."
James smiled and gave Marron a kiss on the cheek.

Marron turned deep turnip red. "Anytime James."

"You want a ride home?" James asked.

"Sure, why not?" Marron answered. They both stood up and got their stuff. James put his
arm around Marron and they both walked out.

*~*

Trunksf eyes widened. "Did you just see what James did to Roons!?!?" Trunks yelped.

Goten looked at James and Marron. "Yeah, he gave her a kiss on the cheek and put his
arm around her, and now hefs going to drive her home." Goten answered smoothly.

Trunks looked at Goten angrily. "THATfS MY POINT BUTTWHIPE!"

Goten looked at Trunksf suspiciously. "Your just jealous."

Trunks turned around and looked at the door. "Whatever, Ifm just concerned."

"Concerned my butt! Youfre jealous! Admit it!!" Goten told him.

"Fine, maybe a little." Trunks answered.

"Whatever, Trunks. Youfre extremely jealous, therefs no point in hiding it either."

"IfM NOT JEALOUS! GET THAT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL!!" Trunks yelled loudly.

Goten backed up. "Chill out mancwere in the library. Calm down, I was just joking
around!!"

Everyone was looking at them, shocked and angry.

Trunks looked at everyone. "Oops, sorry, I was justcpracticing a skit." Trunks told them.
Him and Goten had huge sweat drops on their heads. "But, were leaving nowc" Trunks
said waving his hand with Goten.

They walked to the door. "Bye-bye."

Once they got out, Goten looked at Trunks. "What were you thinking?!?!?!?!?! WE WERE
IN A LIBRARY!!!" Goten yelled.

"Sorry, I guess, I justc"

"Went insane cause you were jealous!" Goten answered.

"WAS NOT!!" Trunks told him.

"You were to." Goten said back. The two friends walked to the car. They were still arguing
about Trunks being jealous and not being jealous.

~*~*~*~

Trunks was walking down the hall, he was miserable, but he still acted confidant. He
walked down to his 2nd period class and sat down beside Goten.

"Yo, Trunks, whatfs up?" Goten asked.

Trunks didnft answer. He kept scribbling Marronfs name on a piece of paper.

Goten looked at his friend. "Why so glum, Trunks?" Goten asked. He looked at Trunks
while he was scribbling Marronfs name on a piece of paper. "Trunks?"

Trunks sighed. "What?"

Goten looked at him carefully. "Why so glum? And why are you scribbling Marronfs name
on a piece of paper?" Goten asked.

"I donft know, maybe Ifm bored and miserable? Good enough for an answer?" Trunks
answered with a twist of anger in his voice. He ripped the piece of paper out his notebook
and crumpled it and threw it in the trashcan.

He was slouching in his chair. He looked really bummed out.

Goten started getting worried. "MAN! WHOfS GOING TO SPAR WITH ME NOW?!?!?!"
Goten thought. "And why is he so glum?!?!"

The teacher came in with a student behind her. "Good Morning class, we have a new
student today, her name is Shellise." The teacher started. "You could sit in that seat in front
of Ben."

Trunks looked at the new girl. She was really pretty. She had burgundy hair, with dark
brown eyes. She was tall and had a nice figure.

~*~*~*~

Trunks was putting some stuff in his locker, and saw Marron come up to him. He didnft
look at her. "Marron if this is about the bet, Ifm not backing out, I already found the girl." He
told her. "Are you backing out? Do you give up?" Trunks looked at her.

Marron looked at him annoyed. "As if Trunks, I would never, Ifm just saying that we should
make a written proclamation." Marron started. "So, we donft forget what the consequences
will be."

Trunks looked at Marron. "Fine with me. Is that all?"

"Yeah, I got to go, James is going to drive me home, see yeah." Marron said. She gave
him a peck on the cheek and walked away.

Goten came up to Trunks. "Woah, did you and Roons hook up already, Prez?" Goten
asked giving him a sly look.

"No, the war just began." Trunks answered.
