Chapter 10- A Date Cut Short
*MANDARIN* 'THOUGHTS' ~SOUNDS~
-----------------------------------------
Ranma woke up groggily. He had a splitting headache from the other day and he didn't feel like getting up. So he just stayed in his bed looking up at the ceiling. When he got home last night it was like hell. Somehow everyone had found out that he had a date with Shampoo and they all had something to say. Like Kasumi said that she hopes that they have a good time. Nabiki, who was probably the one who told everybody, said that this must be Shampoo's welcome home gift. Soun, like always, broke down in tears whining about Ranma breaking his little girls heart. Genma started talking about betraying his family and honor, but that was quickly cut off by a bucket of water. And Akane said that she doesn't care what that baka and bimbo do, and to make her point clear she got out her hammer and sent him flying.
'Damn that Akane. I don't know why she has to overreact about everything. I mean its just a stupid, simple, date. *Sigh* Thats right, the dates today. What the hell am I gonna do? I dunno how to plan a date. I don't even know where to take her. Hmmm, maybe I can take her to the park........No, thats too romantic. Maybe the movies........Nah, too dark. Out to eat maybe......Well yea of course but what else. DAMMIT, maybe I should just canc-' Ranma's thoughts were immediately cut off when a foot kicked him in his stomach.
"Wake up boy, its time for your trainning. You're already in enough trouble with going out with that Amazon, and now you want to sleep in. You just have no priorities, boy. " Genma said looking down at his son.
"Feh, you wouldn't know priorities if it got up and slapped you in the face." Ranma said while getting his trainning clothes on.
-----------------------------------------
Shampoo sqinted as the morning light hit her eyes. "Argh, I hate mornings." Shampoo said as she rolled out of bed.
Shampoo groggily walked to the closet and saw that she had two pairs of clothes out. One was just a plain white t-shirt and jeans. The other outfit was a long blue Chinese dress with a long split on the side.
'Why the heck do I have that dress ou.....Oh yea, I have a date with Ranma today. *Sigh* Why the hell does he always have to do this? Always playing games with my heart. I....I just can't take it anymore. He doesn't know how it feels and probably never will. All he has to do is pick his favorite fiancee and be happy with his life. While the fiancees he didn't choose have to live with the pain. *Sigh* Well I can't think about it now, I'll just get myself even more depressed.'
Shampoo got her t-shirt and jeans and started to walk off to her bathroom when her brother walked in. "Hey Shampoo, hurry up. You know you still have work to do."
"I know, I know. I'm just now getting ready, so be patient and get out." Said Shampoo annoyed.
"Alright, I'm getting out. But before I go, I just wanted to know are you really going out with that Ranma guy?" Asked Zane.
"Yea, I am."
"And do you actually love this guy?" Zane asked curiously.
"YES, I DO ZANE!!! NOW GET OUT!!" Yelled Shampoo.
"Hey, why are you so bitchy today?" Asked Zane.
Shampoo glared at her brother, "I'm not bitchy today. I'm just not a morning person and you're really getting on my nerves right now."
"Ok, you might not be acting bitchy, but you are acting jumpy. So....why are you so jumpy?" Zane asked suspiciously.
"I'm not jumpy. Just....just mind your own business."
"Sorry, but your business is my business. And if this is about your date.....don't worry about it. It'll be fine. I promise you." Zane said reassuringly as he put his hand on her shoulder.
Shampoo gave him a small smile, "Thanks, Zane."
"Yea, whatever. Just hurry up and get your butt down stairs." Zane said as he left her room.
Shampoo smiled as her brother left the room, "Stupid Zane." Shampoo mumbled as she started to get ready again.
-----------------------------------------
5:53 p.m. The Tendou Home
Ranma hurried as he got ready. He was late thanks to Akane giving him a one way trip to the other side of town. So then he had to hurry up and get back, take another bath because he ended up landing in garbage, and get dressed again. Ranma was wearing his green shirt instead of his red shirt and some black pants.
Ranma then hurried out the door as fast as he could trying to avoid the Tendou's and his father as he left. He didn't want to be later than he already was. And plus they had been bugging him all day about this date. Including Ukyou and Kodachi who both were talking about if she gets a date with him then they should get a date.
"Dammit, the date hasn't even started and everything is going wrong." Ranma said to himself as he ran rooftop to rooftop.
-----------------------------------------
6:11 p.m. The Nekohatten
Shampoo, Cologne, Zane, and even Yukie were waiting for Ranma to arrive. Garland was busy serving the few customers that were there. Shampoo had called Yukie earlier that day to ask her if she would help her get ready. So when Yukie got there she was introduced to everybody and of course ended up not taking her eyes off of Zane the whole time she was there.
"How could someone be this late for a date?" Yukie said aggitatedly.
"Dunno, maybe something happened and he can't come." Shampoo said while not looking up from writing in her journal.
"All I know is that he better come, or else." Zane said threateningly.
"Don't worry Great-Grandson, he'll be here. He just has a tendency of being late." Said Cologne.
"Hey Shampoo, what are you writing in the journal?" Yukie asked curiously trying to look over her shoulder.
"None of your business." Shampoo said looking up giving Yukie a mocking smile.
"Come on, you've been writing in that ever since...." Yukie was cut off when Mousse attached himself to her.
"Oh Shampoo, why do you have to go on a date with that fool Saotome? You know that you and me were meant to b-OUCH!!!" Mousse was then knocked unconcious by Shampoo and her bonbori.
"Thank you, thats the seventh time he's mistaken me for you." Yukie said catching her breath.
"No problem, but I told you before that you can hit him yourself."
"But I don't....." Yukie was now cut off as Ranma ran in panting in sweating.
"*Pant* I'm.....*Pant*.....Sorry..I'm....*pant* late." Ranma finally said.
When Shampoo saw Ranma enter she didn't even notice that he was sweating and panting. 'Wow, Ranma looks good today. But of course when doesn't he.' "Ohh....Thats ok lets just get going." Shampoo said as she put her journal in her purse.
"Ummm.....Ok." Ranma said as he finally took a good look at Shampoo as she stood up. 'Wow, Shampoo looks good. Wonder why I haven't noticed before?'
"Aww....Shampoo this is the first date I ever seen you go on. Well I hope you two have a good time." Garland said as she came back in from the kitchen.
"Yea, I hope you guys have a good time too." Yukie said as Shampoo and Ranma began to walk out.
"Don't have too much fun." Cologne cackled as the two left.
"So....um Ranma were are we going to?" Shampoo asked nervous.
"Oh well first we were gonna go out to dinner and then I guess to the.....movies." Said Ranma.
'The movies....that seems sort of dark' Thought Shampoo. "Oh, ok" Said Shampoo trying to put on a fake smile.
-----------------------------------------
Dinner turned out fine for Ranma and Shampoo. They actually had fun and started talking. Ranma had took Shampoo to an exotic resturant that had belly dancing. Ranma blushed as Shampoo got up and joined. Then Shampoo tried to make Ranma get up and join them, but of course he was too embarassed to get up and try. But all the time that Shampoo was up there dancing Ranma couldn't take his eyes off her. Which now brings us to after dinner.
"That was fun." Shampoo said as her and Ranma stepped out the resturant.
"Yea, but it was sort of weird." Ranma said turning his head so Shampoo wouldn't see the blush on his face.
"It wouldn't have been so weird if you had just joined in." Shampoo said flashing him a cute smile.
"It would've been weirder if I had joined in." Ranma said smirking.
"Aww...come on it would've been funny to see you do that."
"Yea, funny for you. Where did you learn how to belly dance from anyways?" Ranma asked sort of embarrassed by the question.
"Yukie taught me."
"Should've known." Ranma said grimly.
"What time does the movie start?" Shampoo said looking at the time.
"It starts......." Ranma looked at his watch and his eyes went wide. "...RIGHT NOW!!!"
"Well lets just run there."
"We still wouldn't make it there in time."
"So, we'll at least make part of the movie."
"Whatever you say." Ranma said jumping on the roof with Shampoo.
-----------------------------------------
Ranma and Shampoo started running at full speed. First they were running side by side but then Ranma took the lead. But then Shampoo took the lead. And then Ranma took the lead again and the Shampoo took the lead again, until it became a full force race. They ran their hardest and fastest. They didn't even know they passed the movie theater. It wasn't even about who was even winning it was just about having fun. But finally they both stopped at an empty lot to catch their breaths.
Once Ranma caught his breath he spoke up. "So...who won."
Shampoo smiled, "I don't know, but lets just say I won."
"WHAT?!? How come were saying that you won."
"Because.......I landed first." Shampoo said proudly.
"Please, I landed first. You just didn't notice."
"Fine then, we'll fight for it." Shampoo said getting in her fighting stance.
"Feh, if were gonna fight for it then I already won." Ranma said proudly.
"Shut-up and just fight." Shampoo said getting out her bonbori's.
Shampoo then charged at Ranma which put Ranma on defense. Ranma was on the defense until he swept under her feet but she jumped over that easily. Ranma then started to attack Shampoo but not full force. He noticed that Shampoo had gotten a lot better and had a lot more moves. But Ranma saw an opening and swept under her feet again which caught her off guard, and she ended up on her butt. Ranma took this chance to pin her to the ground. Shampoo struggled a bit but gave up after awhile.
Ranma smirked, "You give up?"
Shampoo sighed, "I give."
"I win." Ranma grinned sticking his tongue out teasing her.
Shampoo just scowled at him but still had that playful look in her eyes. After awhile Shampoo noticed that Ranma and her were still laying there looking at each other. They didn't know why but they were both couldn't stop staring at each. As they looked into each others eyes there heads began to move towards each other, until.........their lips met.
Shampoo was stunned, but apparently not stunned enough to not kiss back, 'OH MY GOD!!! I'M KISSING RANMA!!! AND HE'S KISSING BACK!!! Hehe, he's a good kisser.'
Ranma was just as stunned as Shampoo. He was stunned by the fact that he was actually kissing Shampoo and enjoying it. 'I'M KISSING SHAMPOO!!'
But it abrubtly stopped when Shampoo broke it off. "Umm....I.....I....got.....got...t..to..g....go.., BYE!!!" Shampoo said as she ran away.
Ranma was still sort of dazed after Shampoo ended the kiss. But as he snapped back to reality he noticed that Shampoo dropped something. Ranma walked over to the item she dropped and picked it up. He almost screamed when he saw the cover but he quickly opened it up so the cover wouldn't show. On the inside of the cover it had some doddles and stuff but in bold red letters it said, 'SHAMPOO'S PRIVATE JOURNAL!!! DO NOT READ!!!'
-----------------------------------------
Yep, Ranma kissed Shampoo. I hope you all liked it (I didn't), and I hope you all don't think the kissing thing happened too early. Anyways R&R, THANKS!!!
