Passes You By
Chapter 1: Realizations
Disclaimer: I don't own Ranma and all those stuff.",
Akane was watching as Ranma fights Ryoga. As usual Ryoga was beaten and just when Akane was going to help Ryoga stand up, Ranma grabbed her hand and started running.
"Ranma! I have to help Ryoga!" Akane screamed angrily.
"Help that pig another time, we have other problems you uncute tomboy!" Ranma replied and looked at the mob of people chasing them. The usual every morning.
"Ranma! Shampoo is mine! I'm going to kill you!"
"Airen! Shampo rescue you from annoying girl!"
"Ran-chan! I made pancakes for you!"
"Tendo Akane! I Kuno Tatewaki shall save you from that devil Ranma!"
"Ranma hohohohohoho!"
Ranma and Akane ran as fast as they can. They jumped over the fences, went through allies and jumped roof to roof before they lost them. Ranma and Akane were trying to catch their breath. A few seconds later Ranma spoke up.
"This is driving me crazy!" Ranma complained.
Akane was just standing there still trying to catch her breath.
"It's like this everyday!" Ranma continued, "Don't you ever get tired you sexless tomboy?"
"Baka!" Akane replied, "ever since you came here my life was ruined!"
Ouch!
Akane was about to say that she didn't mean it when...
"It's better for me to travel and train a lot than to live in your sick house anyway!" Ranma said angrily as he glared at Akane.
Ouch!
The two just glared at one another then simultaneously turned their backs and stomped away.
Ranma was walking around town with no exact location to go to. A frown on his face made people get out of his way.
That baka tomboy! She makes me so mad!
:beep: "Hey! Look both ways before you cross!" yelled an angry driver.
"My life was ruined...."
"Ever since you came here..."
Did I really ruin your life Akane? Come to think of it...I think I did!
Memories of Shampoo, Kodachi and Ukyo came to his mind as they fight Akane. And the day when their parents announced their engagement.
"Hey! Watch where you're going!" scolded Ranma as he picked up his papers that fell on the floor. But Ranma ignored him and kept on walking.
Then there's only one option for me to do. I am going away from this town. I kinda loved this town. But for Akane...Masaka! What is this I'm feeling? What the heck am I thinking? It this what they call :gulp: love?
Meanwhile inside an Ice Cream Parlor.
"One order of ice cream please."
What the heck is Ranma thinking? Screaming to me like that!? Demo..it's my fault...I shouldn't have yelled that to him. I didn't mean it.
"Another order please."
He doesn't want to live with us? Ranma is that true? Come to think of it I think it is.
Akane was looking back when he was always pounding Ranma with her mallet. Always fighting with Kuno and Ryoga. And the day that their parents told them about their engagement.
"Another order please."
But that is not true Ranma. You never ruined my life. You...things were actually better when you and your father arrived at our home...
"Another order please"
"Are you sure? This is your 4th order of ice cream?"
"Another order please!"
"Hay!"
What am I going to do? I know this is not one of our ordinary fights. Ranma looked hurt when I told him about that. Ranma I hope you won't leave...
"Aaaaaah! What am I thinking!?" Akane screamed and red with embarrassment. Everyone looked at her. She ran out of the Ice Cream Parlor and kept on running.
"Miss you forgot to pay your bill!"
Akane ignored him and kept on running. Akane stopped.
"What am I doing?" she said to herself, "Why am I running?"
"What am I running away from?" she continued.
"You are running away from your true feelings Akane."
"Huh?" Akane was surprised. She turned around and saw Yuka and Sayuri.
"C'mon Akane, you know you love Ranma and you just don't want to admit it." Sayuri said smiling.
"Whatever are you talking about?" Akane said looking innocent.
"We were at the Ice Cream Parlor too Akane." Yuka said, "And you owe us, we paid for your four orders of ice cream!"
"Gomenasai. I'll pay you next time." Akane apologized, "Anyway I do know that I have a problem but it's not with Ranma."
"Don't kid with us Akane." Sayuri snapped, "We know that it's about Ranma. We're your closest friends Akane, we know you."
"And." Yuka added, "We just want to give you some advice."
"Advice? Wait a second-"
"If you love someone say it, say it in front of him out loud before time passes you by."
Akane just stared at them. Not knowing what to say.
"Leave me alone! What do you know about me and my feelings!"
Akane turned her back from her friends and ran away.
"Akane-"
"Don't follow me!"
:sigh: "Why don't those two admit their feelings! As if the whole town doesn't know that they love each other!"
