Hi Minna! I'm back with this new fic. It's a sequel to NCU, so Ranma and Akane are together right now. I really want to thank everyone who reviewed NCU; you all made me really happy. Okay, enough talk. On with the story!
JSYK: WAFF means warm and fuzzy feelings
Disclaimer: I don't own Ranma ½ :(

"So what do you want to do today after school?" Akane asked her fiancé, as they walked through the school gates, hands intertwined intimately. No one was surprised by this show of affection these two displayed, everyone having gotten used to it months ago. Almost everyone.
Kuno stood close by, tears streaming down his face as he watched the happy couple stroll by him. "Why does this have to happen to me I ask you?" He said hysterically to his fellow Kendo club member.
His fellow club member gently patted him on the back. "It's okay. It was kinda expected thought, them being fiancés and all…" He said.
"Who asked you anyway!?" The distraught boy yelled.
"Quit you're balling. You're hurting my ears." Nabiki said coming up behind him.
"You're just jealous because I do not lavish my affections on you. You wish you had me. Everybody does." He replied smugly.
Nabiki rolled her eyes heavenward. "Please, I want you like I want a hernia. You're as ugly as the day is long." She replied as if she were bored, walking inside the classroom, a flustered Kuno slowly trailing after her.
"What did you have in mind?" Ranma glanced back at his love. It had been about 3 months since the truth potion had worn off and he had confessed his love to Akane, to which he was extremely happy that he had. He smiled, chuckling silently. 'If it weren't for the truth potion, I might have never told her how I felt. Maybe I should thank Shampoo,' then shook his head as an after thought.
Akane, who had been silently watching the display of emotion on his face, smiled. "What are you thinking about, Ranma?" Akane asked curiously, her eyes dancing with amusement.
Ranma pulled himself out of his thoughts to look at Akane. "N-nothing." He stuttered slightly. Although he loved her, he didn't want to seem like a complete sentimental fool. "Anyways, you didn't tell me what you wanted to do." He inquired.
"We should go to the movies." Akane said, as she let Ranma lead her to their classroom.
Life was good.

After both Ranma and Akane had both finished school for the day, they made their way toward the movie theater. Akane pulled a magazine out of her backpack and started flipping through it. She spotted a quiz that was strictly for lovers.
Ranma noticed her sudden interest in the magazine. "What's in that magazine?" He inquired curiously.
Akane looked up from the magazine and smiled mischievously. "It's a test to see how much in love we are. Why don't we take it?" She said jokingly.
Ranma rolled his eyes "Don't tell me you're into crap like that. That kinda stuff probably breaks more couples up than it actually makes." Ranma said matter-of-factly, putting his hands behind his head in his usually laid back position.
Akane laughed at him. "Don't tell me your scared of a little piece of paper?" Akane said cleverly trying to get the pigtailed boy to comply with her wishes. It worked.
"Hey, I ain't scared of no kinda stupid "Love test" alright? I just think it's stupid that's all." Ranma said irately, truly getting worked up now.
Akane rolled her eyes skyward. "Anyway, question #1. If you could change something about your mate, what would it be?" Akane said looking up from the magazine into the startled boys eyes.
"C-C'mon Akane this is stupid. I love you just the way you are anyways." Ranma said convincingly, deciding to play it smart. His days of imitating planes were over.
"Oh that's sweet." Akane said sarcastically. "No, really, what would you change about me?" Akane asked again trying to pry an honest answer from Ranma.
He stopped and looked at her. "I just said I wouldn't change anything about you!" He practically yelled, desperately wanting to end this conversation.
"Okay, then. Well, I wonder what I would change about you." She stopped to ponder thoughtfully, knowing that if she said something was wrong with him, then he would probably give her an honest answer.
He laughed arrogantly. "Besides my gender problem, there's nothing wrong with me." He said smugly.
"Oh really. Well, besides you being incredibly handsome," that statement earning her a smile. "You could work on being a better martial artist…" She finished, intentionally muttering the last part.
"What did you say? I could be a better martial artist!? What's wrong with me now!?" Ranma yelled getting angry. 'How could she say something like that after all I've done for her?' He thought furiously. Two could play this game.
"Well you could work on not being such a hot-head!" Ranma yelled, coming closer to the surprised girl.
After taking in what Ranma had accused her of… "What do you mean 'not being such a hot-head'!?" She yelled, accidentally proving Ranma right. Then she tried to calm down. "I am not always mad you know. I only get mad when you force me to be that way." She said calmly.
This angered Ranma even more. 'How dare she accuse me of always making her mad?' Ranma silently fumed. "If I'm such a bad martial artist, then why do I always have to save you!?" Ranma said angrily, but he was not finished. Although he should have noticed the all to familiar twitching in Akane's cheek.
"And your cooking stinks! No one should have to go get their stomach pumped after eating!" Ranma yelled before he thought about what he said. 'Oh shit.' Ranma mentally kicked himself.
Akane, who had been quiet during his speech, turned away from Ranma slowly.
Ranma came closer to Akane, attempting to take her quaking form in his arms. But what he was mistaking her quaking shoulders for crying, it was really out of anger. "Akane, I didn't mean that. I was just-"
Akane suddenly turned around. "Ranma no BAKA!!!" She yelled as she sent him flying. That done, she took herself home.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
'I shouldn't have said that.' Ranma thought from his upside cross-legged position on a nearby roof. He slowly put turned himself up right. 'What am I going to say to her?' Ranma silently pondered, thinking of possible ways to make her forgive and forget.
"Stop acting stupid, you know I love you." Ranma chewed over that one. 'Somehow I don't think she'll go for that.'
"Akane, I love you and I'm sorry." Ranma smiled. That could work. Simple and to the point. This decided, he jumped off the roof and onto a nearby fence.
Suddenly he heard screams. "Get the panty thief!" He heard someone yell as a stamped of angry women ran by. Ranma sighed irately. 'That old pervert never stops.' Ranma growled, following the women to catch up with Happosai.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
"What a haul, what a haul!" The lecherous old midget exclaimed as he ran down the street from the mob of angry women. 'They never catch me now.' He snickered looking back. Suddenly he bumped into someone's leg. He slowly looked up the leg of the unknown person to find Ranma.
"Going somewhere, old man?" Ranma growled.
Happosai smiled up at him. "Do you want to join me?" He asked.
"NO! You shouldn't even be doing this!" He yelled taking the bag from the old man and dumping all the underwear on the street.
The mob of angry women suddenly appeared, grabbing their underwear and battering Happosai in the process.
When they had finally left, Happosai picked himself off of the ground and fixed Ranma with his broken gaze. "How could you do this to an old defenseless man?" He wailed.
Ranma only smirked. "Serves you right, you old leech."
Happosai glared at Ranma. "You have angered me. You shall now feel my wrath." He growled, ready to fight Ranma.
Ranma was all to ready to comply. "Give me what you got."
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
Akane paced on the front porch of the dojo angrily. 'That idiot. How dare he say those things to me.' Then she thought over the situation for a minute. 'Well, I did force him to say it but still…' She stopped pacing. 'Well, I am sort of a hothead and I can't really cook.'
A guilty feeling suddenly washed over her. 'I shouldn't have said what I said. And maybe I shouldn't have hit him.'
This decided, she started for the dojo gate hoping that she could find Ranma. The ringing of the phone stopped her. She walked back into the dojo and picked up the phone.
"Dr. Tofu! Why are you calling? Is there something wrong."
There was a pause on the other line. "It's Ranma. You see he's been in an accident and-" Akane quickly put down the phone and ran out of the dojo, desperately praying that Ranma was okay.
'Ranma please be okay. I can't live with myself if you aren't.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
Dr. Tofu turned around a worried Akane entered the room. She nearly ran right into him.
"Is Ranma going to be okay!?" She said in a panicked rush.
Dr. Tofu quickly reassured her. "He's going to be fine but there's something you should know…" Dr. Tofu trailed off when he noticed Akane was no longer there but in the room with Ranma.
Akane ran into the room where Ranma lay. He was awake and sitting on the bed. Akane quickly assessed Ranma. Nothing looked wrong with him physically. She breathed a sigh of relief, happily throwing her arms over Ranma. "Oh Ranma, I'm so glad your okay. When Dr. Tofu said you were in an accident, my heart almost stopped. I love you and I'm sorry." Akane said in a rush, as if she wouldn't have another time to say it.
Akane's relief was short-lived. The blank stare that Ranma fixed her with caused Akane's heart to plummet to her stomach.
"Do I know you?"

MWAHAHAHA!!!!!!! A cliffie! So how did you like it? Think it's worth continuing? I know it's not the most originally plot but hey I liked the idea. I didn't really want to do a sequel, but it wouldn't have turned out like I wanted it too if I they weren't already together. Please review and tell me how you liked it. I know it probably wasn't that funny but it will be later on. And if they weren't in character, they will be from then on (it was kind of hard to make them into character when they were already together.) . I got a lot planned for this fic so stay with me. Oh, and the how the accident happened will be explained later. Thanks for reading and remember to review. ^_^ Also, I would really really like to thank my Vamp Queen for beta-ing for me! You're the best!
