This story is for those who love Ranma and Akane as a couple!

We finally, had gotten married. The wedding didn't go over so well with our friends though, they still had some old feelings left behind. Of course, Ukyo, Ryoga, Kuno, Kodachi, Happosai, and Shampoo wouldn't sit still, but Mousse could've cared less. In fact he tried to help us. In the end everyone settled down, of course Happosai used some sort of sleeping gas on them and then came after me. Ranma had already planned for him though. He told Happosai that his precious collection was hanging over a waterfall somewhere and Happosai ran off.

By the time everyone came to and Happosai returned the ceremony was over and the reception was scary to say the least. The presents were traps and jokes that our "dear" friends had given us to our horror. Our parent's eagerly sent us on a honeymoon and didn't tell us where or anyone else, but somehow our honeymoon still got crashed. Anyways, now we're settling into life as a married couple and preparing for the day we take over the family dojo. Unfortunately, it hasn't been as easy as we hoped.

"Hey Akane, are you still taking those culinary lessons at night?" Ranma asked.

I smiled "Of course, I even learned to properly label everything so I won't mix things up. Kasumi's new culinary classes have been paying off, why do you ask?"

"This curry tastes like feet." Ranma groaned.

I growled "What was that?"

"Taste it." He insisted.

I took a taste and gagged "This can't be right; I tasted it before I left the kitchen. Kasumi even saw me."

"Yeah okay, then you have no sense of taste." Ranma grumbled.

I hurried back to the kitchen not even satisfying him with a comment. I found a note with a doodle of Ukyo that read: If the food is no good I can bring some of my five star restaurant cooking! I heard Ranma sigh as he read over my shoulder.

"So I guess we'll be eating takeout again." He said nonchalantly "What do you want tonight?"

I crumbled the paper in my hands and walked around him to gather up the dishes.

"Akane, you knew things like this would happen." Nabiki was leaning up against the wall in the hallway "Anyways, for a thousand yen I'll go get us all some good grub."

"How about you use your own money?" I growled walking passed her into the dining room where we ate all our meals.

"Here Akane, let me help. Don't mind the others, I know you worked hard. It'll be okay; oh don't you have somewhere to be?" Kasumi helped grab the dishes off the table.

I paused surprised "What, how did you know?"

"Dr. Tofu tells me everything; we are a couple after all. I do hope you're okay and that you aren't catching a flu or anything serious." Kasumi smiled.

"Oh, of course, I'm sure I'm just out of shape. I also have other errands today too, so I'll be leaving soon." I smiled back at her "Thanks for the support Kasumi."

I turned and stopped startled, almost dropping the dishes as I saw Ranma right in front of me with his arms crossed.

Kasumi gasped surprised that he had snuck up on us "Oh my, hello Ranma. Is something the matter?"

At that moment Genma, Ranma's dad, and my own father came strolling in "We heard dinner was ready. Are we a late, Ukyo told us you had just started eating when we passed her coming home."

"Oh father, I'm afraid Ukyo played a nasty prank on Akane; she ruined the food." Kasumi replied "Let's go get something from the market. We can all get something we want that way. I've just got to get the dishes done first. Can you carry the dishes for Akane?"

Our parents took the dishes not wanting to upset Kasumi and followed her out of the room. I watched them before returning my gaze to Ranma who was still standing in front of me waiting for me to speak to him.

"Ranma, if it's about the food, I apologize. I should really go help Kasumi now." I went to move passed him and he blocked me.

"Why are you going to see Dr. Tofu? Are you hurt or sick?" he questioned me.

I laughed trying to lighten the mood "Honestly Ranma, it's nothing to be concerned about. I am just getting a checkup to make sure I'm in top shape."

Ranma narrowed his eyes at me "You'd tell me if something was wrong, right?"

"Of course, I would tell you. Why are you so concerned anyways? You never were before." I quickly moved passed him toward the hall as he followed.


I wasn't for sure what was up with Akane, but I was her husband so I had a right to be concerned. I watched as she did the dishes with Kasumi. She seemed okay, but she seemed like she didn't want to tell me something. She avoided my gaze and kept a conversation with Kasumi going. After though, she brushed passed me and out of the house toward the dojo.

"Hey Ranma, spar with me real quick." She smiled as I followed her inside.

I shook my head "I don't fight girls."

She threw a pail of cold water on me as I turned away "There now spar with me."

I sighed staring down at my woman form "Fine, Akane."

I turned and she began to throw punches at me and a few kicks. I dodged each with ease, but she kept attacking me. She didn't care this time that I was avoiding her moves and I wondered why. Then she stopped for a moment to catch her breath.

"Hey Akane, I thought you said you were leaving soon." Nabiki popped in the dojo staring at us.

In the few seconds she had my attention I felt something hit me and I figured Akane had planned this I thought before blacking out.

It's just an intro and it's not the best, but let me know what you guys think!
