Chapter 1: intros

Akane Tendo sat lazily at her desk looking out of the window to see a couple walk hand-in-hand. *Sigh* I wish i had something like that in my life. Someone to hold me when i'm down, and be there when i'm not and all that other stuff. Maybe i just wasn't meant for this* A lot of thoughts had been passing through her mind. Most of it linking to her "ex-fiancee". Flashbacks of the previous recess -just about an hour ago-came flooding back to mind....

********** "You selfish stubborn jerk!!! What da F#!& is ur problem?!?

"You are! calling uncute would be complementing you!!"

"You aren't exactly the best looking youself PERVERT!!!

"That's the thanks i get for saving ur ass all the time. you wouldn't stand a chance compared to Shampoo and Ukyou !! How did i get stuck wit you?!! You should be thanking me for saving your ugly butt all da time!!"

A crowd seemed to be forming around the two quarrelers since their daily fights had never seemed to go this far. Many had noticed the tears forming in the Tendo's eyes.

"Fine!! i guess if I'm not 'worthy' to be ur finacee then i guess we should call this whole thing off!!!"

"Fine!!"

"FINE!!!"

With that the two went to opposite sides of the field until they were called back in. **********

*oh that jerk!! why does he always have to be comparing me to those two! i know i'm not the best but i know i'm not that bad.* Akane then sneaked a glance at Ranma.* i wonder who he'll choose between the two now. I should feel relieved that i'm no longer with him but....then why do i feel so depressed?* At the other end of the row Ranma was having thoughts of his own..*uncute....tomboy......stubborn my ass, compared to her.......who does she think she is?!?.....my fiancee...?????... Damn,!! Why do i do that?! well not like she doesn't have any part in it.. *Sigh* guess I'll have 2 apologize at home*

Both their thoughts were interrupted by the closing of the door. At the entrance stood a boy their age and Ranma's height. he was a bit tanned and dark brown hair that lay upon a head with practically one of the most attracive faces in the school. as the girls drooled over him (except for Akane ; p ) the guys just searched to see what was so special about him. "AH," the teacher said realizing the new student, "i'd like you all to meet Ta- "i'd rather just to be named Riyo" "alright Riyo, I'm assigning u 2 sit next to umm... Akane Tendo. And she'll help show you around at lunch time. now for homewor-" RING!! soon the teacher was just talking to himself and an abandoned classroom.

*********************

"So,.." Akane, finishing off the last of her sandwich as she walked beside Riyo, "where are you from?"

"I came from a school about to hours from here. I had to move because there were too many problems there"

"oh," Akane looked down at the grass then to her side to see far away Ranma with some of his buds and a group of girls. saddened a bit she stayed quiet.

" I came in time to see the fight last recess" catching Akane's attention he continued. "so, that guy is ur fiancee, huh?" slowly Akane nodded, "ex-fiancee"

Riyo then came to her ear as if to tell a secret and quietly said,"it's his loss, someone like you wouldn't come close to being uncute."

As he backed away, Akane looked at him shocked but then came to a nice smile. He smiled a genuine smile of his own. They both continued to walk as Akane slowly began to think more of this person in front of her. A wind came and chilled the air making Akane shiver a bit. Riyo then took off his jacket and rested it on Akane. He then gave out his arm and obiediently Akane held it. The two continued to smile and walked throughout the recess unknowing of eyes resting on them.

Ranma turned his head to see Akane with Riyo. He thought he saw her looking this way but instead kept watching. the people with him too began to look in their direction. Something in him grabbed his heart when he saw him closing in on her and whisper something in her ear. The smile is what surprised him and the others. Barely had Akane ever smiled in front of others. Ranma kept thinking of different things that jerk might have said to her, different ways to take her away from him. the offer of the jacket and the holding of arms only squeezed his heart more but on the outer appearence he showed no emotion. A girl in the group came to Ranma and practically shouted,Probably trying to see if Akane would hear "Geez, wat a slut! She couldn't settle with having every other guy in the school drool over her but shes gotta have the new guy as well." Many of the kids in the group, except a couple, were either friends of Akane or one of her worshippers, and they were doing a lot to hold down from punching this girl into next week. Ignoring the death glares the girl then turned towards her target, Ranma, " you shouldn't hang around those type of sluts, doing anything possible to get whatever guy she wanted." Ranma then turned towards her and said something to surprise the others, "your right," The girl's smile grew but then fell as she saw him walk away with the rest. " What are ya doing?" she asked, Ranma simply turned towards her and said, "taking your advice, staying away from sluts like you." as if stating the obvious.

The girl watched the others chuckled and walk away with only two girls staying behind. "humph, don't worry sweet Ranma you'll be mine soon enough."

A/N: okay I'm not gonna tell you how dis ends but i could stand any pointers in the end. please r& r!!! I'm starting to write mainly only 4 Inuyasha and Ranma 1/2. I'm usually 99% a Ranma+Akane person but this one could be different O_O
