First Love

Chapter four




I had just gotten my car back and I was going to use it to take me
to the park where I would meet up with Trunks, Pan Marron, and Goten. We
decided that since our one outing where we had lunch had been well, disrupted
we should go out and do something to make up for it. So instead of going to
a restaurant or someplace like one we decided to all go to the park and have
a picnic. Everyone had decided to have it right after school got out on Monday
. So as soon as I heard the bell ring, announcing the dismissal of school, I
packed up all the books I would need into my backpack. Today it was fairly
heavy, seeing as I had English homework today. See I wanted to learn how to
speak English because it is one of the most used languages in the world so
I thought it might be a good idea to take the class. Anyway, I slipped my
backpack onto my back and headed towards my car. When I got to the parking
lot I threw my backpack into the back of the convertible and just jumped
over the driver's door into the driver's seat. I felt my body relax into
the interior of the car, which was a light color of black leather. I tried
to sit up a little in the seat so I could retrieve the keys to the car that
were in my pocket. I dug my hand into my pocket of my jeans and came out with
a pair of silver colored keys. I picked out the one that would start my car
and stuck it into the ignition, turning it in the process and like magic the
car started giving off a soft purring like sound. I drove the car onto the
road and being a nice sunny day, I had the top down. But because the top was
down my hair kept flying into my face and I had to brush it back behind my ear.
After awhile I just gave up and let my hair go wherever it wanted. Coming to a
light, I saw that it was red so I slowed down till I came to a stop. As I waited
for the light to change I got tired of listening to the sounds of traffic so
I turned on the radio. Surprisingly a song I knew and liked was just coming on.


I...
Love to love you,
I...
Love to love you

Some boys are full of noise
But boy you caught my ear
Wanna see if you've got something to say

No lies or lullabies
The nonsense stops here
Be my man you can be on your way

Play it smart boy
(Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?)
If you wanna reach me
Touch my heart boy
(Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?)
'Cause that's how to please me...

What you want
I can be
I'm the girl of your fantasy
As long as you love me (As long as you love me)
What you want
I can do (I can do)
All I ask of you (oh oh)
If baby you love me

Some boys want pretty toys
But I'm so much more
Can't you see that I'm a girl you can trust?
Get real with how you feel
Around my back door
Is it love or is it only a crush?


I was almost to the park and I calculated that by the end of the song
I would be there. So I let the song's rhythm and music over take me and I
started to sing along with the song.


Listen up boy
(Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?)
And stop talking smack now
Back it up boy
(Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?)
Boy step off that track now

What you want
I can be
I'm the girl of your fantasy
As long as you love me (As long as you love me)
What you want
I can do (I can do)
All I ask of you (oh oh)
If baby you love me

What you want
I can be
I'm the girl of your fantasy
As long as you love me (As long as you love me)
What you want
I can do (I can do)
All I ask of you (oh oh)
If baby you love me

I...
Love to love you
(Oh) Love
Is this love?
Does it fall from heaven above?
Do you feel it boy?
Can you feel me boy?

I know it's not right
I know it's not wrong
But right here right now
Is where I belong

What you want
I can be
I'm the girl of your fantasy
As long as you love me (As long as you love me)
What you want
I can do (I can do)
All I ask of you (oh oh)
If baby you love me

What you want
I can be
I'm the girl of your fantasy
As long as you love me (As long as you love me)
What you want
I can do (I can do)
All I ask of you (oh oh)
If baby you love me


Just as I had calculated, the song ended as soon as I came to the park.
I drove the car to an empty parking space and parked. I stepped out of the car
and started walking towards where everyone should be waiting. As I near the circle
of trees, my sayian hearing allows me to hear their voices but not enough so that
I can make out what they are saying. I started to enter into the trees weaving in
and out of them making my way towards the clearing in the middle of all the trees.
As I stepped out of the trees I saw the scenery before me and I once again remembered
why this was such a great spot. For one it was surrounded by a semi-thick circle
of trees, which made it kind of hard to get to the middle of the circle, so that
allowed some privacy. And then there was the scenery. Once you stepped out of the
trees there was a large circular field of grass and flowers in the middle. With a
tiny pond right next to a weeping willow tree. And speaking of that weeping willow
tree, there underneath it were my companions. I smiled as I saw that they had
already set up all the food and everything, I started walking towards them, but
it wasn't until I was within 10 feet of them that they noticed I was there and
as soon as they did they called for me to hurry up and get over there so they
could start to eat. I sighed and complied with their wishes. When I got to the
weeping willows long drooping branches I used my hand to clear the way for me
to get to the center. When I reached the center I saw a large blanket covering
the ground with all the food on top of it. When I saw where I had to sit I became
nervous. Sure I had gotten pretty good at hiding my feelings for Goten but I was
still nervous around him sometimes. I sighed and sat between him and Marron, I
would of sat someplace else but I could because of they way we were sitting.
We were in a circular type of seating arrangement with Pan at Trunks' left side
and Marron at his right and then having Goten sit by his niece, leaving me the spot
in between Goten and Marron. I looked back at my two friends that were sitting at
either side of Trunks and I wondered who would end up with Trunks. For I knew that
they both had a crush on Trunks but I had NO idea who Trunks liked. We soon started to
eat the food before us, loving the great taste of Chi Chi's cooking. About 30 mins
later you could find us still under the weeping willow tree but with the baskets tossed
aside and all of us lying down on the blanket. I was relaxed just lying there like
that. It was so peaceful. Then all of a sudden I heard Trunks' voice.
"Hey, guys I have a good idea."
"And what would that be?" asked Pan.
"Well, I was just thinking. We are all friends and what about leaving a mark that
says we are and always will be."
"I like that idea Trunks." said Goten. We all agreed and got up from our lying positions.
"So what is this mark going to be?" I asked.
"Simple. We can carve are names into this willow tree."
"With what?" asked Marron
"Well, we have some knives from the picnic." Stated Pan.
"All right. I saw we do it." Said Goten. We got a knife out of one of the tossed
aside picnic baskets and we each took turns carving our name into the trunk of the tree.
After we all had done our names Trunks took the knife and wrote something after our names.
When he moved out of the way, I read it. All it said was 'together forever.' I smiled at
the chose of words. It meant something, something special. It meant that we would always
try to be there for each other. Always be friends. To bad I wanted to be more than friends
with Goten. And to bad that Marron and Pan wanted to be more than friends with Trunks. But
at least Trunks was single, Goten was still dating Paris. They had been going out for what?
Two years now? And it looked serious. I was always thinking that one of these days Goten was
going to pop the question to her. And then they would go off and get married leaving me with
a completely shattered heart. But anyway, I noticed that is was beginning to get dark and I
suggested that we start to head home. Trunks had taken off a few mins after I suggest that
we all go home but not before asking me if I was coming. I had said no because I had wanted
to stay a little longer. I talked to Pan and Marron for a bit and then I walked out from under
the cover of the trees to the small pond. I dipped my hand in the cool water and then took it
out. I was just about to take of into the sky when I heard my name being called.
"Hey, B-chan! Hold on!" I knew of only one person who called me that and I also could
tell who the onwer of that voice was, for I knew the owner well. I turned around just as
Goten was arriving in front of me.
"Yes, Goten?"
"Well, I've been meaning to ask you a question."
"Really. Well, what is it?"
"Umm, well, I've been noticing for awhile now that you always seem to not be your
normal cheery self. And it seems like you haven't been talking to me as much lately, B-chan.
Why is that?" On the outside I acted perfectly calm but in the inside I was beginning to
panic.
"What do you mean, Goten? I've been acting perfectly normal."
"No, you haven't B-chan. And I'm going to figure out why." This time my eyes
widened and I really did start to panic. I mean I knew how persistent Goten could be once
he set his mind to it. And I couldn't just tell Goten that the reason I haven't been acting
my normal self was because I loved him and he loved Paris. No, that was just NOT an option.
"Goten, I don't know what your fussing over. I'm perfectly fine. And even if I wasn't
its not like you would care."
"How could you say something like that B-chan. Of course I care. But please just
tell me what's wrong." I was beginning to lose my patience and I knew I had to get out of
there, fast. So I quickly turned around and before Goten realized what I was doing I took
off to the sky. "B-CHAN!" I heard him yell my name but that made me go only faster. I soon
sensed him right behind me. The next thing I knew I was stopped by a pair of arms wrapping
around me.
"LET ME GO!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs while struggling to get free.
"NO, B-chan! Not till you tell me what's going on!" I was beginning to get scared,
really scared. I felt tears coming on but I pushed them back. I felt him turn me in his arms
so that I was facing his way, but he still had his grip on me. I stopped struggling to get
out of his grip for I knew that it was pointless.
"Nothing is going on Goten! Now let me go!"
"If nothings going on then why did you run away from me? And why are you crying?"
Damn! My tears just hadn't wanted to stay put. And it looked like I was in major trouble now.
I was just becoming more and more pissed at him. Why didn't he understand that I didn't want
to tell him. Didn't he understand that if he pushed me any more I would end up spilling my
secret to him. But then on the other hand that's what he wanted and soon he would get what he
wanted. When I didn't respond he spoke again. "Just tell me, Bra!" Right then and there is
when my anger exploded.
"YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY I RAN AWAY FROM YOU?! YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY I'M CRYING?! I"LL
GIVE YOU ONE WORD! YOU!!" I yelled all of this quite loudly for now I was just mad at him, mad
at him for being so god damn persistant.
"W-what? Me? You're crying because of me?"
"Yes. Because of you!"
"But why? What did I do?" His arrogance was beginning to bother me and before I could
stop myself from answering his question, I did.
"I'll tell you what you did Son Goten! You toyed with my heart! You made me fall in
love with you! And when I fell in love with you, you didn't return my love! God knows how many
nights I cried because of you! Couldn't you see that I loved you??!!!"
