Chapter Ten: Ranma
I had one of those dreams you don't want to wake up from, but you do, and then you can't return to the same one as hard as you try. It was a good one too, and it made me feel great as well. I was fighting Ryoga and I beat the stuffing outta him in no time. Then afterwards Akane and me were lying on a patch of grass just staring up at the sky and all. There weren't anyone bothering Akane, or me and I think we were both happy. Just sitting there in the warm sun all day. It sounds boring, but when I was dreamt it that opinion is opposite.
I finally got back to sleep. That food I ate for dinner that Akane made didn't settle well in my stomach. But it wasn't the horrible stuff she usually made. Plus I did have a bunch of junk food later in the night. That would probably give me the "swirly stomach effect", as I like to call it. My second dream wasn't so great. It was me being beaten up by Akane thousands times over, and then I recall my first dream. In it I gave Akane a necklace and that was followed with fireworks in the sky. The second dream ended with me in the sky exploding. It's strange that I can hate Akane one time, and love her the next.
"Wake up pervert!" I snapped awak upon hearing Akane's yell. Before I could react I was thrown onto my panda father who then threw me onto the floor. See, right now I hate her for doing that. Especially for calling me pervert..
I was pissed at her, but I stopped upon seeing her cute smile. It was like that other time, and I couldn't bear staying mad at my fiancée. "What was that for?" I asked as I rubbed the bump on the back of my head.
"I want you to come eat the breakfast I made you." Once I heard that she made me food I became wary. I don't know if I should eat this mysterious breakfast.
"A breakfast? Made by you?" I darted for the window, but found myself held back. Finding that I was caught by Akane I did what any self-respecting Saotome would do and lie. "Ah! I was, er, only getting another shirt."
"Are you going to eat or not? I won't let you eat anything else this morning." I guess I should try it. If I don't she would never allow me to live it down.
"Okay I'll eat it." I stood up in anticipation, but found myself unclear on what she made. "What is it?"
"It's an omelet." She was talking pretty loud, and she grabbed my hand rashly and pulled me out of my room and downstairs. She flung me to my spot at the table and left the room. I found it cute how she went all about things the way she did.
"Hey m'boy she's made you a special breakfast." Pops said soaking wet with hot water. He was trying to pressure me into something again regarding Akane. I simply grabbed him by his collar and threw him across town. I don't want him interfering with this breakfast. I can handle this on my own.
Akane came back in acting confident and placed an omelet before me. "Dig in." At least it appeared to be an omelet. It wasn't exactly folded over, and the ingredients were all big chunks and pointing out of the egg meal.
"Right. It looks" I was going to tell the truth, but I looked at her and got nervous and decided I didn't need a trip into the stratosphere today. "Great Akane." I almost choked on my own lie.
"So eat up. It's really good."
I looked to her to see if she would leave me with the food. She didn't so I couldn't throw it away. So I reluctantly took up a pair of chopsticks. "Okay then." I ate it and swallowed it in seconds. I never even tasted it. "Uh, it seems okay."
"Seems okay?" She didn't believe it and had that tone in her voice that made me cringe. "Well, try some more and this time savor it."
"Uh, right, right." I nodded nervously and looked back to the food breaking a sweat. "Here goes." I took another piece up in my chopsticks and stopped there.
I ate it and chewed it slowly. It didn't taste that great, but it wasn't bad. "Well?" I sat and thought about it some more. What do I tell her? I love it right? Right.
"Okay. Here's my opinion." She looked at me intently, and I got nervous. "I love it, but I hate you." No! I didn't mean to say that! I looked down to the plate in pain, but I saw that Akane was hurt more. She stared at me for a moment, but she cracked. I saw a tear in her eyes. I dreaded what would follow. I didn't mean to say that though. I love her. At least I think so.
