Just Friends

Author notes: I'm Back! Ok, lame intro but this is my first Ranma ½ fanfic. So I hope you guys can accept it. I'll accept flames etc, but please no vulgarities. Thanks! Oh yeah, just for your info, Ukyo and Akane are best friends. Ryoga is Akane's boyfriend. For all those Ranma/Akane fans, this is not a Ryoga/Akane fic. Sorry to disappoint those Ryoga/Akane fans. Thanks! Sumimasen! Sayonara!

Chapter 1- Just Friends

As Akane slowly jogged back home, her mind kept on replaying the scene that happened on Saturday evening.

+Flashback+

Akane slipped into the seat opposite Ryoga as he gulped hard. *This is going to be hard*(Ryoga) "Oh, Ryoga you shouldn't have booked such an expensive place," Akane cooed, "I mean it must have cost you a bomb to actually get a place. You really shouldn't, but thanks anyways." She said.

"Akane, I have something to tell you."

"What my darling?"

*What have I've gotten myself into?* "Err. Akane.I.just wanted to tell you that the past few months have been the happiest moments of my life.err.and.I have something to tell you!" He finished lamely.

"Take your time Ryoga; you know I'll wait for you." *I wonder if he is going to propose soon?*

"Actually Akane, I think.err.I think we should.err.break up." Ryoga finally said, not daring to look into Akane's brown eyes.

"WHAT!! WHY?" she demanded.

"Err.Its just that, well, umm I realized that you do not love me," Ryoga explained, "At first, I was very happy that you had chosen me and had even moved in to live with me, but you don't seem to care about my feelings and you only seem to agree to whatever I say and I don't think that really qualifies as you know, love.

"But I DO love you!" Akane said *Oh GREAT! How did I manage to screw this up? I thought he would never notice it! Help me dear Lord!"

"No Akane, you don't, deep down you know you don't so that's why I think we should break up. Please just ponder about it for a while and you know what I'm saying is true."

"That's not true!" Akane gushed. "All I did was love you and this is how you repay me?" *Quick, try and salvage the situation. You know you need it.

"It's okay Akane, you don't have to lie to me anymore." Ryoga said almost sounding sympathetic.

"You jerk! BAKA!I hate you!" Akane screamed, not minding if she was in public. Then standing up quickly, she stood up and started to run towards the door. *Hurry! Make sure he sympathises with you to take you back. Must make it look dramatic!* Running slightly slower, Akane had expected Ryoga to catch up with her, only, he did not. *GREAT! He didn't come after me! What to do? Arrgh! There goes my plans!* Angry with herself and Ryoga, Akane left the restaurant without even looking back.

*Guess that means I've to pay the bill.again.Great!* Ryoga thought annoyed. *I still hope we can still be friends though.*
