At the Smith Residence...

It was early morning as the sun rose in the sky to ensure yet another sunny day in Satan City. All teenagers and business workers were getting ready for another day. But, a specific pair of teenagers was getting ready for High school...

"Laura! Are you up yet? Breakfast's ready!" A female called inside a dome like house. The called person let out a sigh as she got up from her bed and grabbed her school uniform she had prepared the previous day before she changed.

"I'm on my way! Just give me a few moments!" Laura replied with a shout form her room and moved towards the mirror.

Laura was an overweight 18 year old High School student that went to Orange Star High School located not too far away from her home. She had a pair of reddish brown eyes and her skin was a porcelain color.

Laura neatly combed her red straight hair that hung below her shoulders and gave herself a stared in the mirror in front of her. Yes, today was the day. She was definitely going to do it! She was going to tell him she liked him!

Laura hurriedly put on her school shoes before grabbing her bag. She headed down stairs towards the kitchen and met her Mother who plated up her breakfast.

"Morning, Mom" She greeted and the female smiled at her daughter. Her mother immediately noted her lightened mood while Laura sat down to eat her breakfast.

"Morning, you seem quite in a good mood today. Excited for school, Laura?" Her mother asked as Laura took a bite out of her toast and she shyly smiled.

"I guess you can say so" Laura replied and her mother laughed lightly. She cleaned up everything after she cooked and made sure everything was spotless before she left for work.

"Well, put that good mood to use and hurry up. We don't want to be late, now do we?" Her mother said and Laura nodded as she quickly finished up with her breakfast. She knew very well that her mother hated to be late for work.

"Yes, Mother"

Meanwhile at the Brief's residence...

Bulma rushed from the living room to the kitchen as she quickly finished up with making breakfast as well as changing for work. Her mornings were always so rushed to make enough food for the hungry house residences as well as getting ready for work.

"Morning, Mom... Where's Dad?" Bra asked as she stepped into the kitchen, dressed in her school uniform. She had her blue hair neatly combed in a ponytail and her bag was put on the chair where she seated herself.

"Morning, Bra. He's probably busy training...again. Where's your brother? He knows that we're going to be late if he sleeps in" Bulma said while frowning in disapproval and Bra shrugged.

"Argh! TRUNKS! WAKE UP! WE'RE LEAVING IN TEN MINUTES!" Bulma yelled towards the upstairs room and Bra winced slightly at her sensitive hearing. "If he doesn't hurry up, I'm going to skin him" Bra chuckled at her mother's words and continued to eat.

Trunks, who was woken up by his mother's screeching jumped out of bed and mumbled curses underneath his breath. His alarm didn't go off and resulted in him sleeping in. He quickly pulled on his school clothing while trying to comb his hair and brush his teeth.

"I'm up! I'm up!" Trunks said as he rushed out of his room and down stairs hoping he would at least get something to eat before they left.

"You're late, Trunks! When did you go to sleep last night?" Bulma asked as he entered the kitchen and he paled slightly at her glare. "Whatever, just eat up your breakfast before we go" Trunks sighed in relief before he sat down and ate his breakfast.

"Woman! Where is my uniform?!" Vegeta's voice reached Bulma's ears and a tick mark appeared on her head.

"Maybe if you opened your eyes for once, you'll see that I put it out for you on the cupboard! Are all Saiyans blind?!" Bulma yelled back at the male while the two siblings looked at each other before sighing.

It was just another morning at the Brief Household.

Later on...

The bell rang at Orange Star High School and the students who were still outside of the school building went inside, still conversing with their friends.

"Morning, Trunks!" Goten stepped into the classroom and waved at the lavender haired male who was already seated.

"Morning, Goten" Trunks said followed by a yawn and Goten snickered at his partner. He went to sit down next to him and gave him a grin.

"Someone slept late last night, either that or a rough morning" Trunks let his head fall onto the table below him and gave his friend a look that described his mood. Goten laughed at his partner and patted him on the back in his own way to soothe the male.

Their classmates soon entered the room as well and sat down on their own spots. A particular red haired female also stepped into the classroom but went unnoticed to the Lavender Haired male despite her eyes immediately fixated on him.

Their homeroom teacher came in and put down his folders before putting on his glasses. He greeted the class before he started to take the Student Attendance. Trunks let out a sigh as he sat back up in the chair and didn't even notice a pair of reddish brown eyes staring at him.

It took Laura all morning to gather up her own courage and struggled slightly to concentrate in class. It had been so long that Laura had crushed on Trunks Brief but she never really had the courage to tell him that she liked him.

She found that each time she wanted to talk to him her courage ran away despite seeing that he didn't pay her attention. However, today was going to be different and she was finally going to confess to him.

Lunch time came very slowly for Laura but as soon as the bell rang she found herself out of the classroom. Laura entered the cafeteria and found that the Lavender haired boy sat next to his friend. This was her chance and she wasn't going to waste it at all!

"Geez, we're not going to be in school for long and yet, we still get so much homework? I sometimes wish that the teachers would give us a break for once" Goten moaned as he lay lazily onto the palm of his hand while staring at his food.

"It's because we're in our last year that we get so much homework. You just want to flirt and chill all day long so stop whining about it" Trunks said and Goten pouted while glaring at him. He muttered something incoherent under his breath before looking back at his food.

Trunks' attention was drawn when a red haired female neared him and he glanced at her. "Um, Trunks? A-Are you busy right now?" She asked nervously and Trunks raised an eyebrow. It was obvious that she was very nervous because she was playing with her fingers.

"No, do you need something?" Trunks asked as he looked at the girl while and Goten glanced at the girl in the corner of his vision. He finally decided to eat and not just stare at his food knowing that lunch would be over soon.

"I...I... I really like you!"

Goten almost choked on the food he swallowed down at the sudden confession and looked at Trunks who was in even more shock than he was. Laura felt her face burn up at her sudden boldness and the silence that suddenly came over the cafeteria was crushing her.

"You're kidding, right?" Trunks said and Laura's eyes widened, her heart dropping in her stomach as she looked at the male.

"No, I've always liked you ever since we entered the same High School" Laura said, her voice softer now and she averted her eyes to the ground. Trunks scoffed at her statement and her eyes traveled back towards him.

"Too bad for you that we were put in the same High school" Trunks said and Laura felt her heart break into pieces at his words. "Sorry, but I don't feel the same way. There's no way that I'll eve like someone like you"

Someone...like me?

The entire cafeteria started to murmur and talk while some of the students started laughing. Laura immediately rushed out of the cafeteria with tears cascading down her cheeks. She had never felt so much pain in her heart before and she just wanted it to stop.

The rest of Laura's day was hell with all the students talking behind her back and some of them even laughed when she passed them. She tried her best to get out as soon as possible and held back her tears until she finally reached home.

As soon she entered her room, she burst into tears, finally breaking down. She couldn't believe he had been so heartless and that he would never like someone like her... Laura wiped her tears despite them not stopping to flow down her cheek and made a vow.

She was going to better than she ever was in High School.
