*** 6 Months Later ***
I smoothed out my dress one last time before turning to the mirror. I felt tears well up in my eyes when I saw my reflection. My gown was halter-style at the top and the bodice fit perfectly to my body. The beadwork stiched into the dress was simple but classy and the skirt felt to the floor and had a bit of a train. Mom, Grandma, Bra and Bulma had all helped me to pick out the dress so I knew it would be fine.
Bra had helped me with my hair this morning by pulling it all up into a bun and then curling lots of loose strands of hair that were hanging down to frame my face. She had also done my makeup with seemed to take forever but when I looked in the mirror, I was in awe of her skill.
*knock, knock, knock*
"Come in." I turned around to face my guest so I could judge how I looked by their initial reaction to me.
"Hows it coming?" My dad froze once he set his eyes on me. After several moments he came the rest of the way in the door and closed it behind him. "Panny, you look so grown up. I can't believe it."
I fought back tears as Dad wrapped me up in his arms. "I love you, Dad."
"I love you, too. Are you almost ready? We are set to start in a few minutes."
I flashed Dad my most dazzling smile, to mirror what I felt in my heart. "I'll be ready. I've been ready since I was four years old."
"I sure hope not, or Trunks has alot of explaining to do." Dad and grinned and winked which cause us both to laugh. At the moment I realized that Dads eyes were glassy.
"Thanks Dad... for everything."
He smiled at me one last time before turning towards the door. "I'll be back in a few minutes to get you okay?"
With that he was out the door. I sat in a chair and carefully pulled on my shoes as the final finishing touch. Now I was ready. I lookedat the clock on the wall and it read 12:55pm. 5 more minutes until I became Pan Briefs. It was all too good to be true. The last six months had been wonderful. I got a job at Capsule Corp and we spent almost everyday together, even if it was just to have lunch.
I felt his ki appear behind me before I turned around. I froze in my spot, almost unable to turn around. Once I did, I saw Vegeta standing by the door just looking at me with an unreadable expression.
In the last several months I had actually spoke very little to Vegeta unless we were sparring and even then, the speaking was minimal.
"Vegeta, I..." I stopped abruptly when he held up his hand to silence me.
He continued to stare at me in silence a few more minutes before a wide smirk spread across his face. "Dende finally did something right... amazing." His voice was gruff but I knew what he was saying was important if he'd come in here to say it. "If he has to marry, at least he is marrying you... a strong demi-saiyan."
He turned his back to leave but I wanted to say my piece to him too. "Vegeta, wait."
He stopped and turned back around with a scowl. "You aren't going to hug me again, are you?"
I couldn't help but laugh. "No. I just wanted to say thank you. No matter how much you do not want to admit it, you took the place of my Grandpa Goku when he left. That means alot to me, so thanks." I wiped tears from my eyes, hoping not to smear my makeup and noticed that Vegeta smiled a little when I mentioned Grandpas name.
"Its nothing." Then he left and Dad walked back in looking conserned.
"Everything okay?"
"Yes! Are we ready?"
Dad nodded and we made our way to the aisle. Once the doors opened and the wedding march was playing, I finally laid eyed on my future husband. Trunks looked wonderful in his tux and my Uncle Goten was standing right next to him. While walking down that aisle my heart filled wih joy and excitment. My heart was beating so fast that I was afraid it may leap right out of my chest.
When Dad handed me over to Trunks, I met his eyes and got lost in them. The rest if the ceremony was a blur as we spoke our vows and listened to the preacher. Too many happy thoughts and memories were racing through my head to remember exact words but I knew that Trunks loved me and I loved him, so that was all that mattered.
"You may kiss the bride." Thats when I came out of my daze and saw Trunks wink at me. I smiled and then felt Trunks press his lips to mine and seal our wedding vows. I wanted to stand there all night, kissing my husband Trunks but the roar of the crowd behind us made it impossible.
As we walked down the aisle and into our married life surrounded by friends and family, I knew we'd make it through everything as long as we had each other.
The End
