Love Is Odd
Oh my gosh! The world's going to end! Princess Chi, the yaoi princess, has committed high treason. She wrote a story that has no yaoi in it what so ever. Not even a little shounen ai. *giggles and falls over*
Hiya! Yup, you heard right, this story has no yaoi in it. This is a Pan romance story. Gohan and Videl are a couple. ChiChi and Goku are a couple. Vegeta and Bulma are a couple. Goten and Bra are a couple. Of course Krillin and Juuhachi are a couple, they happen to be my favorite m/f couple. But I'm not telling you who Pan has a crush on.
This chapter is written from her POV for the most part. I'll let you know when it's changing. As always I don't own DBZ.
***********************************************************************
Oh Dende save my mortal soul against such impure thoughts. Every time I see him I get weak in the knees. Every time I'm near him I want to rush into his arms. I don't care if he's older than me. What difference does age make when you're dealing with destiny. I know it's destiny, it has to be.
From the moment of my birth he has been there. He's trained with me. He's laughed with me. He's held me in his arms as I cried my eyes out over first love lost. He's shared secrets with me I'm not even sure he told tousan or ojiisan. What more could a girl ask for?
Okay, maybe I could ask to be a little bit older so he'd notice me. I told him I loved him once before but I was only fourteen at the time. He told me that I was a sweet girl but I was too young to know what love is. Well now I'm seventeen so maybe I'm finally old enough for his liking.
This is torture! I'm in hell! He's standing right over there talking to tousan but he may as well be a million miles away. I hate these damned picnics!
Every Damned Sunday we all get together at Bulma sama's house and have a picnic in the backyard. Everyone comes because it's tradition. Even he comes. Though he'd much rather talk with tousan or spar with onijiisan Goten than look my way. That's what he's doing right now. He and tousan are propped up against a tree talking about something deep no doubt. Tousan's brows are furrowing together as he points at........
OH MY KAMI! He's pointing at me! Me of all people! Maybe I've finally managed to catch his interests. Maybe He was asking tousan if I was dating anyone. Oh Kami tousan's beckoning me to go over there. Could it be, did he ask tousan if it was alright to date me? Oh Dende, you know I don't ask for much but please let me have this one thing!
Must settle down! Must walk over there casually and seductivily. Oh knees don't give out on me now. I wonder if he can see the utter delight painted across my face. I think I'm going to hyperventilate.
End Pan's POV
***********************************************************************
ChiChi, Bulma, Videl, Puar, and Juuhachi sat at the picnic table giggling as if they were their daughters and grand daughter's ages. The girls who actuall fit those ages lounged lazily by the sparkling pool in the Briefs' backyard. The men in the group were all stretched lazily under the weeping willows after having there fill of the food. Goten, Goku, Vegeta, and Uub were curled up together sleeping peacefully.
"I'm halfway tempted to wake them up," Yamcha admitted as he continued to whittle the stick he was holding with his ki, "But I don't have a death wish."
"Why do they do that anyways, Gohan," Krillin asked as Vegeta snuggled even closer to Goku,wrapping the younger Saiyan's arm around him. Uub yawned in his sleep and scootched closer to Vegeta and Goku's warmth. Goten followed suit.
"It's a Saiyan thing. Saiyan's are pack animals in a sense. When resting they sleep cuddled together as both a defense mechanism and for the added warth. There's an alpha male and an alpha female but they aren't always mates because the alphas are simply the strongest ones. Even though tousan is lower in rank he's the strongest so he's our alpha. That's why even Vegeta cuddles up to him.
Of course Pan is the alpha female. That why Bra and Marron are cuddled up next to her right now even though they aren't sleeping," Gohan nodded in the direction of his daughter and her friends.
"But Marron and Uub aren't Saiyans," Tien pointed out.
"Feh," Piccolo snorted, "You baka ningens know even less about Saiyans than I do. They tend to adopt the cubs of other species into their packs. Why do you think they except us all so readily? It's because they were either cubs when we met them or we were. Uub, Marron, and myself are the only ones of the adopted cubs that act remotely Saiyan though and that's why we cuddle next to them when we cat nap during the day."
"I doubt Dr. Gero would have gone after your tousan if he'd known what complicated territorial animals Saiyans are," Juunana chuckled, "Speaking of odd Saiyan behaivior, what's wrong with your daughter, Gohan?"
"What's wrong with Panny," Uub yawned as he stretched like a cat and crawled over to Gohan and Trunks, propping himself between them, "Oh and next time you must have one of the discussions be a little quieter. I'm surprised those three didn't wake up."
"Oh she acts weird everytime we're all together," Trunks stifled a giggle, "I swear the girl talks to herself during these things more than she talks to us."
"Hmm, something seems a little out of place. Her ki is fluctuating oddly," Piccolo agreed as he studied the young demi Saiyan.
Gohan's brows furrowed as the discussion switched to the oddness his little girl was displaying. He stared at Pan who was laying in her chair so she could look at them. She did seem to be acting odd. Gohan decided he was going to find out just what was wrong with his little girl.
"Pan chan, could you come here for a moment. I'd like to speak to you," Gohan yelled over to his first born. Pan giddily jumped up and began a half trot over to where they were sitting. Gohan noticed that, despite the fact she looked estatic, an inner battle raged behind her happy eyes.
"Can I help you, tousan," Pan giggled as she sat down in her father's lap and snuggled closer to him. She began to toy with his recently regrown long hair as she cuddled closer to him.
"Oh, I was just wondering if something was bothering you," Gohan smiled as he rubbed her back. Pan pulled away from him, a small frown gracing her once happy features.
"Nothing you can help me with," Pan sighed and stood up. She walked a few slow paces away from her father and took off into the air.
"I'll see what her problem is, Gohan."
"Thanks, I think she'll listen to you more than she'll listen to me," Gohan sighed as he watched his friend take off after his daughter.

Pan's POV
I'm such an idiot. Why did I get my hopes up? I should have known that he could never love someone like me. He needs a girl who's both a fighter and intelligent. I'm smart but I'm not profound enough for him.
Dende just help me get out of here. I can't stand to see my father's sad face or his concerned look. Why do I have to love him? Why does fate have to be so cruel to me? If there was a way to stop my heart from beating his rhythm I would. I'm so hopelessly in love with him it hurts.
If I can just fly far enough away from them maybe I can forget what an ass I was today. I have to make it to the clearing before I start crying. I will not show my weakness in front of him. He is a fighter and a man of honor. He'll never look at me if I can not be as brave as he is.
Great, he's following me. As if my humilation wasn't complete yet now he'll ask me what's wrong. I can't let him catch up to me even if he is faster than I. He's so graceful, it's as if he were built to simply be perfection.
Good, we've reached the trees. If I can make it into deep cover he'll never find me. The one thing I best him at is hiding my ki signature. I've been watching him long enough to know just how low I have to drop my power before he can't find it.
"Pan, stop," he bellows at me. I really have no choice in the matter considering his strong arms are wrapped around me. I can't fight him, he'd easily beat me.
"What do you want." Oh Dende, even I'm surprised by the ice in my tone as I snap at him. He's as taken aback as I because he lets me go.
"Please Pan," he soothing calls to me. I want to melt as he says my name, "I want to help you. You know I care about you."
"But not like I want."
"Pan, please try to understand this. I'm not any good for you. I'm far too tainted for someone as pure as you are. You deserve someone who can love you like you deserved to be loved. You need someone who doesn't have blood on his hands," he cries. Oh guardian, I made him cry. I've never seen him cry before. He's always been my pillar of strength. I never realised that my pillar could crumble.
"That's not true." Now I'm crying as I fling myself into his arms and cry into his shoulder. He looks so surprised it's almost cute as I begin to trail kisses up and down his well muscled neck. "You are everything I could ever want. You're smart, strong, brave, deep, and one of the best people I've ever met. If anything I'm not good enough for you."
"Oh Pan," he murmurs as he strokes my hair, "My sweet Panny. I love you with all my heart but it will never work out. Gohan will kill me. You'd be better off with someone he'd approve of."
I'm in heaven. I have to be dead. There is no way I'm wrapped in the arms of the man of my dreams. He must be a god because the lips of a mortal couldn't be as soft as the pair that are pressed to my own willing mouth. He is everything of beauty wrapped into one perfect package.
"I don't care about tousan. All that matters is that I finally have you," I pant as he finally breaks our kiss. His eyes are as clouded as my own and love is written across his face as he gently continues to hold me.
"I think I've been waiting for this moment for as long as you have," he chuckles as one soft hand winds through my hair and cradles my head pulling me close again. His lips are so soft as he kisses me again. His tongue tentively laps across my lower lip begging for entrance. I never knew something could taste so sweet as his tongue begins to wage a war with mine. He pulls back ever so slightly to stare into my eyes, "I love you, my little demi Saiyan."
"I love you too, Piccolo"
