Chapter 9

Pan was nervous and she could tell that Trunks was a bit on edge as well. They decided that today was the day they were going to inform everyone about the news. Neither of them knew what to expect and could only hope for the best reactions.

Pan knew she couldn't run away from telling everyone about her pregnancy anymore and she had to face them head on. After all, she told Trunks and since then, it almost seemed like their relationship was slowly mending.

Trunks put a hand on Pan's shoulder as they stood in their bedroom, Pan staring at her self in the mirror. She glanced at him and he gave her a small smile with a comforting squeeze on her shoulder. Oh, that was right. She wasn't alone in all this.

"Don't worry, Pan. I know that our parents and even your grandparents are going to be ecstatic. Not to mention our friends." Trunks stated, and noticed how Pan's stiff shoulder relaxed somewhat. He saw her silently nod and a nervous smile played on her lips.

Without a second thought he leaned in and gave her a chase kiss. Pan blinked in surprise and he gave her a smirk. His eyes showed hos sincere he was and once again she was reminded that he wanted this baby with her. He wanted to go through this with her.

As if on cue, the doorbell rang and they snapped out of their gaze. "That must be them. I'll go see them in." Trunks said and left the room to welcome their guests. Pan watched his exiting figure before letting out a breath she didn't know she even had.

She could do this. She had to do this. The sooner she got this off her shoulders, the better she was going to feel. She could feel the adrenaline pump through her system and consciously put a hand on her belly before smiling.

"You're going to surprise a lot out of them." She silently whispered to her growing belly before chuckling. She turned and exited the room. She could hear the doorbell ring once again, knowing that more of their friends and family has arrived.

"Ah! Trunks! How is my boy doing?!" Bulma's voice echoed throughout the house as she crushed her son in a tight embrace. Trunks laughed lightly at his mother's death grip and saw Vegeta giving him a small smile.

"I'm doing just fine, Mom. How are you?"

"Well, besides your father driving me crazy with still breaking the training room and your sister's busy partying lifestyle, I'm doing great" She said and ignored the comments she received from both his sister and father.

"Look, Bulma's here! Oh, hey, Vegeta!" Goku's loud voice came in from behind them and they glanced back only to be greeted with an innocent grin. Gohan and Videl along with a few other familiar faces walked beside them as they arrived.

"Hey, Trunks, how's it going? Thanks for inviting us over. It's been a while since we've been at your place. Where's Pan?" Goku asked while looking around, not seeing his granddaughter anywhere but before Trunks could reply he was intercepted.

"I'm right here, Granpa!" Pan said and smiled at everyone who came. She greeted them with hugs and was almost crushed by her own mother in a hug. She could feel her heart warming up. She never knew that she missed them all that much.

It felt great to have everyone together again. She could see Trunks and Goten already laughing in their own world and the other were busy conversing. There were a few faces that she rarely saw and would love to catch up with.

"So, how have you been, Hun? Have things been going better here?" Videl asked as she and Gohan sat down with Pan. Pan knew exactly what her mother meant and gave her a small nod, her parents' feeling relief go through their hearts.

"Yeah, some…things happened and we've slowly started to mend our relationship." Pan replied, almost slipping to tell them about her pregnancy. She wanted to tell everyone when they were all settled and the guests stopped arriving.

"I'm so glad to hear that"

"I agree. We were worried about you two but as long as things are going well then, we're happy. We want our little girl to be happy" Gohan stated and Pan could feel the tears want to collect in her eyes. She hugged him tightly and smiled.

"Thank you, Dad"

"Where's my favorite daughter-in-law?" Bulma asked and Pan laughed lightly at the female's statement. She broke the embrace with her father, feeling much better and most of the nervousness fading away. She stood up and waved at the blue haired female.

"Bulma, I'm your only daughter-in-law" Pan said as Bulma walked over towards her, a drink in her hand and a warm smile plastered on her face. She rolled her eyes and put her one hand on her hip while giving Pan a playful look.

"Either way, you're still my favorite" Bulma said while giving her a wink. "It looks like you two are glowing again! It's been a while since I saw you and Trunks this up and running. Is there something that we need to be celebrating on?"

"A-ah…u-um…about that… I just quickly need to go check on something. Excuse me" Pan hastily left Bulma in confusion. Why did she have to be so smart? She could figure everything out from the beginning but hopefully she wouldn't tell anyone.

"Hey, Goten, can I quickly lend Trunks?" Pan asked and the male shook his head. "Trunks, have everyone arrived yet? Your mother is on the verge of figuring everything out so I think it's time" She whispered and Trunks swallowed thickly.

"Damn, she always knows what's going on. I believe that everyone's here. If you want to do it now, then that's fine" Pan nodded and went to walk away but he grabbed her hand. "Pan, just know that I'm right here with you" Trunks said and Pan felt her heart warm up.

"Everyone! Can we please have your attention?" Trunks called out, the entire room filled with people going quiet after a few moments. Trunks looked at Pan and gave her a nod. She could feel her nerves eat her up again and suddenly wanted to run away but stopped herself from doing so.

"Hi, everyone. Firstly, I would like to thank you all for coming, it means a lot. We all called you here for a specific reason. Trunks and I have something to tell you" Pan said and felt Trunks put a hand on her shoulder.

"I'm pregnant"

She watched their expressions change from shock and surprise to confusion and… "My granddaughter is going to have a baby!" Chichi exclaimed loudly and it was followed by everyone's cheers.

Pan stood there, baffled by the ecstatic emotions. She honestly believed in the worst-case scenario but instead, everyone was cheering and filled with happiness. She felt tears form in her eyes and bit her bottom lip.

"My baby is going to have a child! I'm so glad!" Videl and Gohan were the first to crush her in a tight embrace, followed by Bulma and the rest. Trunks watched as Pan laughed in happiness with everyone and his heart swelled.

He felt a hand on his shoulder and glanced back to look at Vegeta who gave him a smirk. "Congratulations" Only one word made Trunks's eyes widen in surprise. However, before he could reply he was swarmed by Goten and his sister who were asking too many questions.

He tried to keep up but soon sighed and gave up. He looked up and caught Pan's eyes. They shared a glance and then burst out laughing. Everything was going to be alright and maybe, just maybe they would grow towards each other once again.

One month later…

Pan woke up in a start, rushing towards the bathroom. She could feel the nausea washing over her and rippling through her body. She made it just in time and threw up, trying to hold her own hair.

She groaned and briefly closed her eyes. She felt terrible. She knew that morning sickness was part of the pregnancy but that didn't mean she liked it. She sat down against the cold tiled and let out a sigh.

She silently hoped that she didn't wake up Trunks in the ruckus she caused. After all, he still had work in a few hours and he needed the rest. She didn't want to be a nuisance after everything was starting to fall into place.

"Here you go" Pan jumped slightly and looked up at Trunks who held a glass of water. "This should help a bit. How are you feeling?" He asked as Pan took the water and rubbed her back soothingly.

"I thought you were sleeping. I'm sorry I woke you up"

"Don't be. I told you. I want to have this baby with you." Trunks said and the tears unconsciously streamed down Pan's cheeks. She nodded and lay her head against his chest as he rubbed her back.

This was one of the many reasons she fell in love with Trunks Briefs.

Two months later…

"No, I clearly told you that I want it this way. This is the last time I complain. The next time I call, it will be to tell you that you're fired" Trunks slammed the phone down and took a deep breath to calm himself.

He felt a soft hand touch his own and looked at Pan who gave him a comforting look. Her belly had grown a bit in the last three months but she was radiating as usual. He felt all his problems melt away at her touch.

"Do you want some coffee?"

Trunks nodded and she went to the kitchen. Trunks was a lot more on the edge with work and getting everything ready for when the baby arrived. Pan knew that she couldn't help with everything but she could be there for him as much as she could.

She felt Trunks snake his arms around her from behind and pulled her into a hug, nuzzling himself in her hair. They stood still for a few moments as Trunks's hands found her growing belly.

"I'm sorry."

Pan leaned back and gave him a kiss on his cheek. "Don't worry. Everything can be better again. Maybe you should take a short break. Do you want to go shopping with me?" Pan asked and heard Trunks chuckle.

"If we go shopping then we both know that won't be a short break" Trunks pointed out and Pan glared at him. She gave him a playful hit and he chuckled as he stepped away, his hands in the air to show his surrender.

"Do you want coffee, or not?"

"Please" Pan nodded, continued making coffee and Trunks sweat dropped. She was a lot feistier than normal but somehow, he found it entertaining. He pocketed his hands and a smirk came onto his lips.

"Only one hour" Trunks said and watched as Pan's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree. She rushed to their room to get dressed and Trunks blinked in surprise. He looked at the two mugs on the table counter.

"W-Wait! What about the coffee?"
