Sometimes…
The waves were
crashing down her feet and the sunlight illuminated her face. The yellow
sundress really suited her with
that straw hat also with a yellow ribbon.
She just stood there watching the sunset.
She tucked her midnight blue hair behind
her ear. She turned around, smiled and said.
" Ne, Ranma. Isn't the sunset beautiful?"
The boy faced her and nodded. "Yeah. It
is beautiful."
She smiled. One of her sunny, warm, heart
melting smiles. The boy wondered. Why he ever thought of her as uncute.
" Ranma." She said, snapping him out of his
reverie. 'What was your life like before you came to the dojo?"
Ranma was startled by her question but
answered anyway. "Well… adventurous." He said. "Going from place to place,
learning
different techniques, meeting new
people." "Why'd ya ask."
' Well there might be a time when you will
lea—" She stopped herself before she could say any more.
Ranma understanding what she meant said.
"But I like it better when I came to your place. I mean I never had a home
before.
at least now there's a place I can go
home to."
Akane smiled at this. She sometimes
wondered why she ever thought of him as a jerk.
"How about you?" He asked "How was your
life before I came."
" Well safer, less kidnappings, no martial
artists turning at your doorstep to challenge you." Akane said.
Ranma turned red at this.
" but" she added. "I like it better when
you came. There was never a dull moment."
Now it was his turn to smile. "You know
Akane, you're so different from my other fiancés."
"How so?" Akane said sarcastically. "Maybe
because I'm an uncute tomboy, with no figure and a dunce at martial arts."
"That's not what I meant." Ranma said
panicking.
"Then what is it then." Akane growled, a
blue aura already forming around her.
"It's just…" Ranma took a deep breath.
"You're not afraid to disagree with me, your independent while the others
aren't and
you aren't so willingly to give yourself
to me and the others are. You're kinda unique."
"Oh…" Was all Akane said.
"You are pretty special." Ranma said
absent-mindedly. "I mean as much you don't believe it. I really care for you
and would just
do anything than to see you get hurt
because you really mean a lot to me----"
Ranma suddenly stopped. Realizing he had said
too much.
Akane was surprised at first that Ranma
would say things like that about her but she smiled warmly up at him.
"Thanks Ranma. That was really nice to
hear." She tiptoed and brushed her lips against his own. She smiled at him one
more
time before turning and walking away.
Ranma stood there, dumbfounded. He placed
his middle and index finger on his lips and thought.
"She kissed me! Akane kissed me!"
He turned to the spot where she was a
while ago and couldn't help smiling at it. If he was going to get married to a
tomboy.
At least she's a cute and nice one.
"Cute and nice big deal!" His mind told
him. "If you get married to her. You'll be the luckiest man alive."
Ranma didn't argue with his mind this
time. All he felt was pure happiness as if he was on heaven. He turned and Then
suddenly
a thought struck him.
"Akane… There is something. I never got to
tell you today. I love you…"
He really was so scared before that some
other man will take her away from him or an incident he can't handle will take
her away
too also by his own shyness and pride will
too separate them. There was some close cases. He can fight every threat that
will
separate them but what if that threat is
Akane herself or his own shyness. But know he knows for sure that Akane feels
the same
way he does for her so it doesn't really
matter.
He walked away from the beach, following
Akane and feeling light hearted than he did in his life.
~Sometimes, I went to shout to let the whole world know
how lucky~
I am to have
you… but sometimes I just want to hush and be
Quiet … because the world might take
you away from me…
