Decisions
When morning came, everyone slept a bit late so the house was unusually quiet. Tenchi went outside to sit and think. To his surprise Ryoko was already up and outside. "Morning Ryoko." Tenchi was trying to hide his confusion. "Did you sleep well?" "Do you love me Tenchi?" Ryoko's face was serious. "Ryoko I, I don't quite know how to answer that." Everyone else was up by now and at that moment Ayeka walked outside. "Lord Tenchi, aren't you and Ryoko going to join us for breakfast?" "Just a minute Miss Ayeka." "I'm not very hungry." Ryoko said as she looked down at the ground. Tears were coming. She tried her best to hold them back. She didn't want Ayeka to see her when she was weak. "Please excuse us Miss Ayeka." Said Tenchi. "Of course Lord Tenchi." Ayeka said as she walked back into the house a little confused and angry. ::Oh, Lord Tenchi will not be with Ryoko! I refuse to see that happen! If Ryoko so much as…. :: Her angry thoughts trailed off.
"Ayeka come on, your breakfast is getting cold." Sasami said. "Where are Tenchi and Ryoko?" "They're talking outside." "Oh well. I hope they're not going to miss breakfast. Who will eat it?" "MEOWWW" Ryo-ohki was looking up at Sasami. "Oh, you will eat it." "Meow meow meow." "Ryo-ohki, you're so silly." "Meow" Sasami picked up Ryo-ohki and gave her a hug.
Back outside, Tenchi and Ryoko were still talking. "Tenchi, last night I saw you holding me. I also saw everyone else. I don't know why or how I saw these things but I did. Also, I fought four demons who seemed to be bent on killing me." "Ryoko, I'm sorry. Are you okay?" "Yes, just very confused." "I'm sorry. I can't answer your question. But I do care about you. You're like a sister to me." Ryoko sighed. "Fine, lets go back into the house and act like nothing happened. Okay?" "Ryoko, please don't be mad." "I'm fine Tenchi! Just fine!"
As they walked back into the house everyone was asking, "Ryoko are you okay? What happened?" "Yes, I'm fine." Ryoko said, still sounding sad and confused. As they ate no one said much of anything. Occasionally they would exchange glances. All were unsure what to say to Ryoko or if they should say anything at all. Sasami looked at Ryoko with a confused expression. "Ryoko you're usually so brave and strong. What happened that would make you so sad?" Grandfather shot Sasami a look. "Sasami, I think it best not to talk about it tonight." He said in a soothing yet stern voice. Tenchi and Ryoko hardly looked at each other during breakfast. Both did not know how to handle all that had happened. And Tenchi was still unsure what had actually happened. After breakfast was over everyone went to their normal activities. The house was still quiet since no one new exactly what to say.
That night as everyone was going to bed, Tenchi's mind was filled with questions. ::Why does Ryoko keep asking if I love her?:: He decided to take a walk to try to clear his mind. While he was walking he was thinking of nothing but Ryoko. ::Her hair, her eyes, and that cute little way that when she gets mad her face turns red and you can almost see smoke coming from her ears. Also, her voice. Her beautiful voice.:: Tenchi pondered these things for what seemed like hours as he realized….OH MY GOSH! I think I do love Ryoko. :: Tenchi ran back to the house as fast as he possibly could. He couldn't wait to tell Ryoko. His heart was pounding, his hands were sweaty, and his thoughts had gone from confused to pure joy. He had never felt like this before. He wanted to hold Ryoko in his arms and tell her everything would be okay. As he ran he kept yelling "I LOVE RYOKO!"
When he got to the house Ryoko was sitting by the lake gazing at her reflection. The house behind her was dark. Tenchi ran to Ryoko as fast as he could. She jumped up and said, "Tenchi, what's wrong!?" He grabbed her and held her in a tight embrace. "Nothing's wrong Ryoko, nothing at all." Ryoko of course by now is very confused. "Ryoko, all I can think about lately is you." Tenchi said sincerely. "Ryoko, I" "Yes, Tenchi?" "I….love you." "I love you too." Ryoko said as they stood there holding each other. Both wanted this moment to last forever. "Tenchi, can this be true?" "Ryoko, I'm so sorry. I was so blind. I love you. I truly love you." They gazed into each other's eyes and then shared their first kiss. As this was going on, Ayeka awoke and looked out her window. :: Oh no, this can't be happening. Tenchi loves me, not Ryoko! No :: "But Tenchi, I thought you said I was like a sister to you?" "Ryoko, I'm sorry. I was so very wrong. Can you ever forgive me?" "Of course Tenchi my love." Then Tenchi carried Ryoko back into the house. "Tenchi, I don't think those demons I fought are dead." She said as she explained everything that happened. "We'll go and take care of them tomorrow. Tonight, lets just be in love."
Then as they were just about to share another kiss, a noise came from outside. They looked out the window. The four demons were standing outside and they didn't look happy.
Well, Ryoko and Tenchi are finally together. I wish this would happen in the show! Oh well, maybe one day it will. Please review and tell me if ya like what I've written so far.
