R.a.p.i.
Chapter 4: A fairytale...
Took hours to think about one !Tihihi…
Akane sat in the water, sighing inwardly. That evening had been a torture!
Flashback…
"Iiiiiiiiiiiiek, mommy! Look at me, I´m a girl!" Ranma-chan screamed like hell. She bounced through the bathroom like a gummy ball on drugs.
Akane´s eyes widened.
She had totally forgotten about that girl-boy thing.
"MOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMYYYYYYYYYY!" If Ranma kept screaming and moving like that the house could easily break into pieces.
Akane managed to catch Ranma in her arms after a while. "Shhhh… Shhhhh, Baby, calm down!" She forced Ranma into the hot water, hoping that being a boy again would prevent her fiancé from destroying the house.
When the little boy looked down at himself he stopped crying and smiled brightly. Wow, luckily children get happy that easily.
"Mommy, look, look! There he is again!"
Ranma squealed and looked at his penis, then turning to look at Akane proudly, who turned bright red.
That must be the most embarrassing thing he has… anyone has ever told me!
„Mommy? Are you feeling well? You look funny, cause your face looks like a crab!"
At that point of the day Akane felt like drowning herself.
End of Flashback…Akane dropped down under the water. Luckily Ranma had stopped thinking about his girl side. Taking over the warmth of the water Akane relaxed a little. Closing her eyes she surfaced again.
She opened them again when she heard a giggle. Ranma was swimming in the water, circling around Akane. He watched her with his bright blue eyes.
"Mommy, what are you doing?" – "Just relaxing a little, darling." She sighed.
"Why are you wearing a bathing suit?" She frowned a little.
Cause you´re normally a disgusting pervert and I won´t ever take a bath with you naked!"Because I freeze so easily!" she put on a fake smile.
"Ah, ok…" he swam some more rounds in the water when he suddenly yawned.
Ok, no question he is a damn cute child…Akane stood up and went out of the tube. Looking at Ranma she wrapped a towel around herself and than took one for him. "Come on, Ranma, it´s been a long day, you need to sleep!"
"No! I´m not yawn tired!" He swam to the point of the tube furthest away from his "mommy".
Akane shook her head. Children… "Ranma, out of the water, NOW!" she demanded, looking serious.
Ranma pouted, not wanting to leave the water.
"No, what if I turn into a girl again when I leave the water?" His eyes started to look puffy.
"You won´t! I promise, now get out!"
Ranma started walking towards Akane, who caught him in the towel and whirled him up into the air. Ranma started giggling. Yep, they do cheer up that easily… Smiling Akane dried him and then took the little figure into his room. She put on his pyjama and laid him down on his futon.
Ranma looked up at Akane with sleepy eyes.
"Mommy? Why did I turn into a girl?" he asked in a quiet voice.
Akane sweat dropped. She started stroking his hair gently, while she thought about an answer.
"You know…I… I…I believe in magical beings called fairies. And these like to… to play nasty tricks on us." She started.
"So they tricked me?" Chibi Ranma asked, not really understanding what she meant.
"Yes. When… when you were playing next to a magical spring at a place called Jusenkio how is it spelled in English? they changed your fate so you fell into a spring. And now you turn into a sweet little girl whenever you get into contact with cold water."
Ranma nodded lightly. "That´s a pity." He said, yawning again.
His eyes were nearly closed.
"But mommy, what´s fate?" he asked, already nearly sleeping.
Akane lowered her head and kissed Ranma on his forehead.
"Fate is that your curse brought you to me." She whispered next to his ear.
"Good night, Ranma."
A little smile formed on the sleeping child´s face. "Night, Kane…"
Akane left the room, not noticing the familiar pet name Ranma sometimes used for her.
"Mommy?" a quiet voice whispered next to Akane´s ear.
"Uhhh, I wanna sleep." Akane turned her back towards the source of the sudden noise.
"But, mommy, I had a bad dream!" Ranma´s voice turned whining.
Akane rubbed her eyes sleepily. She stared at the little figure standing next to her bed until the memory of the passed day came back.
No, it wasn´t a nightmare. He IS a child! Akane felt the urge to close her eyes and go on sleeping until that crazy episode of her life was over. Instead, she sat up and patted Ranma´s head. She yawned and lifted him up, placing him on a free space in her bed. "What about, sweetie?""I was a grown up. And there was a panda and a pig and a kitten and a duck and they all were crazy, mommy! And there were these girls, wanting me to go with them."
He remembers things! Akane´s eyes went huge as she listened to the story of the little boy next to her, who cuddled up in her lap.
"You know, mommy, you were there as well… And some weird people wanted to marry you! I don´t want you to marry, mommy." Lil´Ranma said while watching Akane with innocent, sleepy eyes.
Akane´s heart filled with warmth. That was the sweetest thing Ranma had EVER said to her.
Akane! He is just a kid, who thinks you are his mother. Of course he wants you for himself. Don´t think he´d ever say something like this when he gets normal again.
"I won´t marry any of them, darling, don´t worry. Do you remember what the people looked like?"
Chibi Ranma shook his head. "They had no faces, that´s why they scared me."
Akane sighed. "Wanna sleep here?" she asked and laid down again.
Ranma cuddled up into her arms. He looked into her eyes.
"Your eyes are like chocolate, mommy…" he said, before closing his eyes.
Akane smiled at the little creature in her arms.
Why can´t he stay like this forever? – Cause you love him and can´t marry a child! – I DO NOT love him! You drive me crazy! – Huh? You´re arguing with a voice in your head, don´t think it could get much worse…
Akane shook her head and yawned again. She had to go to sleep before she really would get insane. "Night, Ranma."
"Night, mommy." Came the calm reply.
Akane closed her eyes. Hopefully he would sleep until morning.
"Mommy?" Ranma asked.
Nooooo, go to sleep!
"Yes, darling?"
"When I´ve grown up I´m going to marry you!" he said cheery, before drifting into dreamland.
Akane´s eyes shot open.
Shall remind you on that when you are your old self again!
End of chapter 4.
Author´s notes:
Yippie, another chapter done. I liked this one in a way, though.
I was thinking about stopping when Akane had put Ranma into bed, but then the chappy would have been so short again, so I wrote some more.
Hope you like it so far, would love to get reviews.
Luv ya all, thanks for reading,
Ria, the little star. :D
