Ryouga's Cupid

by Swandreamer

Everything is running according to her plan. He's such a nice guy and good looking as well. He's shyness is on the way though… "Thank you for helping me this morning. It's rare to find someone like you these days…" Thanking him as she placed a cup of tea on the table for him to drink.

"Oh! That's was nothing- honestly!" He chuckled, a bit embarrass with the attention that he was getting from the lady. "Well, anyway, I really have to go. Thanks for the tea." He stood up, grab his back pack and prepared to go. The minute he was about to step outside the door, he hears a loud thunder and observed the dark sky above them.

"You travel a lot Ryouga. Why not spend the night here at my home?" she suggested, inviting him to come back in.

"What?! In your house?" Alone?! With her?! What will Akane think about me! Then, he day dreams getting caught by Akane while being sweet with the lady. No! He thought.

Observing Ryouga's reaction, she hits him at the head with a newspaper. "Hey!" she gets his attention, "What are you thinking?! Snap out of it Ryouga! There's a storm coming, its safer if you stay." Grabbing him by the arm and forcing him to sit down.

"Let's talk more about the girl you like - Akane, right?"

Crossing his arms to his chest he sighed, "I guess there's no harm to spend one night here." and gave her a nod, "Yes, her name is Akane." She smiles with glee as the boy started to open up to her.

"Look Ryouga…" She points at the television show featuring a movie related to the coming occasion.

Wow Valentines day, He thought, everybody's into it - flowers, chocolates… I wonder if Akane like those.

"Ryouga, why don't you ask Akane out for a date?" She suggested.

"A date?! This coming Valentines Day... no way… I just..." he blurted out but had second thoughts about it, "Can I really ask her out?"

"As you mentioned earlier, you seem to like her a lot and I don't see any problem why you shouldn't ask her out. She's not yet married."

She's right! this is my chance to spend time with her!

"You know, I'm an expert when it comes to love! I can help you capture her heart." She winks at him.

"Really?! You're such a good friend!" He almost threw himself to give her a hug, "I just hope Ranma will not get in the way."

"Ranma? Whose Ranma?"

"He is Akane's fiancé." with regret in his voice, "Oh that jerk! He's so insensitive to hurt Akane's feelings at times. I can never forgive him for having too many girls when he has Akane as fiancé."

"I see…" it's a good thing I have my bow and arrow with me.

"Don't worry Ryouga, I'll take care of him."
