Chapter 9: Girl Talk

The girls were in Bra's room changing, or more accurately were in Bra's room while she threw clothes at Pan from across the room. Pan always borrowed clothes from Bra when she was here. Pan waited until Bra emerged from the depths of her closet before asking her, "What did you think you were doing sitting on Goten's lap earlier?" Pan had been rather shocked when Bra had waltzed in and settled herself on his lap without a moment's hesitation. When it came to Goten Bra was usually much more reserved, almost bordering on painfully shy. Bra had the good grace to at least blush before answering, "What? That wasn't a big deal it was fun. Besides Pan you know I've had a crush on him for ages." Bra grinned at Pan. "Yeah, I know which is why I was so shocked." Pan answered her. "Well, I was still a little tipsy and I used that to give me the courage, he was sure surprised wasn't he?" Bra turned to her dresser and began riffling through one of the drawers. "Anyway, forget about me, what was with you?" Bra asked with her back still turned to Pan. "Me? What about me? I didn't do anything," Pan asked. "Here, wear this instead, its comfortable and still sexy, and you looked like you wanted to shove Trunks down on the pool table and have your way with him." Bra explained and tossed Pan a lacy blue camisole tank top. Pan pretended that Bra's words hurt her before saying, "That's ridiculous. I would never shove him on the pool table just to have my way with him. Not of course that I would mind too much if he were to decide he wanted to do that to me." Pan had started her speech with an indignant note in her voice but ending up smirking. She threw the shirt she had been wearing back at Bra. Bra just rolled her eyes at her and before she could say anything, there was a knock at the door.

"Who is it?" Bra called out." "It's Mom," Bulma answered through the door. "Come on in" Bra answered while tying the ties around her neck of her white halter-top. "Hi girls, did you have fun at the mall?" Bulma asked before sitting down at the bench for the vanity table. "That color will look really good on you." Bulma waved toward the shirt that Pan was still holding in her hand. "Yeah, I think so too." Pan looked down at the shirt and then pulled it over her head. "Ohh, sexy!" This came from Bra before she sat down on her bed. "The mall was fun, we bought lots of cool stuff, or at least Marron and I did, and then we caught a late lunch." Bra answered Bulma's question with a motion towards the bags from the mall that were still piled by the door. Bulma laughed, like mother like daughter. "Did I hear Goten earlier?" she questioned. "Yeah, he's downstairs with Trunks, he gave us a ride home" Bra answered. "Why did he give you a ride, didn't you drive to the mall?" Bulma asked, slightly confused. Bra refused to look at her when she asked the question, "Well yeah…" Bra started to answer her and then hesitated; she looked at Pan for help.

"Umm, well, the thing is when we stopped in for a late lunch we decided we'd order some…drinks, since Bra's able to now and everything, and you know how we are when the three of us are together, we kinda forgot we were only going to order one and before we knew it we were the slightest bit drunk. So we called Goten to come get us so we wouldn't have to drive ourselves." Bra still looked rather sheepish but Pan could see her breath a small sight of relief that she had taken over the explanation. Bulma frowned and told them, "Well, since both of you are legally able there's not a lot I can say, but do be careful of the number you order next time okay? Someone might not always be there to drive you home." Bulma switched topics and smiled before asking, "What were you girls talking about before I knocked? I heard something about someone having there way with someone else?" Pan blushed and Bra laughed. Bulma knew perfectly well what they had been talking about and the girls knew it.

"So, how is operation snag Trunks working? I assume that he's the one you are going to have your way with?" Bulma asked Pan good-naturedly. Pan blushed even brighter and answered, "Umm, well I don't know how it's going really." Bra interrupted her by saying, "It's going great, he hasn't been able to keep his eyes off of her all night." She was so happy. Her best friend and her brother were well on their way to being a couple and she had been able to be herself around Goten. Bulma smiled at Pan before turning back to Bra. "And what about you Bra? Now that Pan has decided to go after Trunks are you going to finally go after the man you want? If you aren't going to then someone else might snatch him right out from under you, Goten is very popular with the girls you know." Bulma saw the embarrassment on her daughter' face for just a moment. Bra had thought she was doing a good job at hiding it, but apparently not. "Oh, honey I'm sorry to embarrass you, its not that apparent to everyone, I knew because I'm your mother, and a woman, and I've also head you talking about him with Pan." Bulma reassured her daughter.

"I figured that you and Daddy wouldn't approve, and he's so, I don't know; different form all the other guys that I've been afraid to even by myself around him." Bra admitted. It felt good to confide in her mom like this, for so long she had only had Pan to talk to about it. "Of course he's different. And I only want my children to be happy, however they accomplish that is up to them, but as for your father, who knows? You know he won't want anyone near his princess." Bulma cautioned Bra, it was true that no one ever knew how Vegeta would react. A short while later, their discussion on men finished Bra and Pan headed back downstairs. With the thoughts of snagging their men fresh in their minds they had both dressed the part. Both sported tight hip hugger jeans and Pan wore the camisole Bra had given her earlier while Bra's pants had rips up and down the legs, revealing the tanned skin below. Both girls wore a smile that if anyone had looked close enough to tell, just screamed, "Determined". They had a mission and nothing was going to stop them.

I apologize for everyone who has been waiting patiently for the next chapter. I have a crazy schedule and this summer I was taking a class online and working so this story kind of got pushed to the back burners, but hopefully I will be have more time to write on it since I'll be at school and not working as much. Thanks to everyone for being so patient, and thanks for the reviews too, they inspire me to write more.
