Leaving Love Behind: Chapter One
It was a beautiful spring morning in Nerima. Ranma and Akane the almost newly-weds were running towards school after their failed wedding. Ranma in his casual red and black outfit and Akane in her school uniform. They knew they were late already from the talk with Soun. Everyone who were at that almost-wedding would know what was on their mind...WHAT AM I GOING TO TELL THE KIDS AT SCHOOL?!.
-SCHOOL-
The story turned into rumors like a hurricane and soon everyone who attented knew about it in a second. As usual the class of A-1 was chatting and spreading rumors of how Ranma and Akane got married rite after they left in their recked dojo. The more and more rumors were spread, the more rumors that were created. It was very noisy in the class of A-1. Well it was until two students opened the door and entered, late as usual, and silence was everywhere.
Akane and Ranma sat in their seats. And in a split second, they were crowded around by groups of interested people who wanted to know about their failed wedding.
"Hey Akane, is it true that you guys are going to have another secret wedding? Or elope?" asked girl #1.
"Is it true that Ranma decided not to marry you after all?"
"Did you have a 'fun time' with Akane after the secret wedding, Ranma?"
"Is it true Ranma dumped you? Or did u dump him?"
"Can we have Akane if you dumped her?"
"Can we have Ranma if you guys called it off?" Ranma wasn't even listening. His head on his hand and thinking of someone very special. What to do.. What to do.. Im sure she's gunna burst in a min or so. Or now. Should i stop her when she bursts? Or should I leave it to her?... "Forget it." Ranma realized he had said that out loud because all the guys who were asking Ranma multiquestions stopped and stared blankly at him.
"So...u still love her?" sniffed a sad boy.
"Whaa?...I.." Ranma didnt understand.
"So this is how you truly feel...we understand" said Boy #2 with tears in his eyes. And on and on they went about Ranma and Akane's love and Ranma felt miserable. But 3 desks diagonal to him, the short-haired girl was just about to burst when his simple words made her blush madly.
-Later On-
Brring! The bell rang for the end of the day and everyone was collecting their stuffs and were heading out. Ranma was one of the last ones out, scared the mob of Akane lovers would attack him again with his leader...Kuno. Coast's clear! Phew..I wonder if Akane left.
"HEY RANMA!!"
"AHH!" shreeked Ranma, now up in a tree.
"Sheesh Ranma, that's a great greeting." said the dark-blue haired chick.
"Oh...Akane. What are you still doing here?"
"I'm here because I was waiting for you! But I guess I'm NOT needed. I have better things to do anyways!" Akane turned around and started to march off, head held high.
"Wait Akane! I didn't mean it that way!" Ranma jumped off the tree with a perfect landing and ran to catch up with Akane who was now running.
"TRY TO CATCH ME YOU BAKA!!" and Ranma and Akane ran towards the dojo.
-Dojo-
"Gotcha!" Ranma pounced on Akane who was running towards the stairs.
"Fine you got me Ranma, now get off!" said the deep-breathing girl underneath a pigtailed-boy.
"I was barley running too!" joked Ranma.
"Watever." And Akane tried to push Ranma off. She failed and thomped back on the floor with Ranma on top of her with his arms balancing his upper body from collapsing on Akane. Then, Akane got contact with the boy's silver-blue eyes. Wha....My heart....it's beating...so fast... -flashback- "Hey Ranma, can we have Akane if you're not gunna marry her?" "Forget it." -end flashback-..He said those words..."Forget it." Akane slowly closed her eyes and waited for him to make his move.
"I gotta go shower. I couldn't shower after gym today at school." Ranma got up and walked upstairs like nothing special happened.
What?! He said those words before! I know he did! And now he's just gunna go? Now he made me feel so embarrased!.........Does he even want me by his side?.. I guess not, he wouldn't want an uncute tomboy like me as a fiance...... I was mistaken...Akane felt tears in her eyes. She stomped off to her room.
-Bathroom-
Oh shit, what am I going to do now? What was that? She looked so cute. It felt like I was gunna burst...I might've kissed her right then and there! If I did, she'd just call me a pervert and hit me with her mallet. But her face...it looked so soft and beautiful....what if I did.. "ARGH! What 'm I thinkin? Damn tomboy, messing up my mind!"
-Dinner-
WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! A loud weeping could be heard from upstairs.
"Where's daddy, Nabiki?" asked Akane at the dinner table.
"He's still upstairs weeping about the failed wedding. Kasumi went to cheer him up." answered Nabiki who had no care if her dad cried or not. "Can't you tell?"
"Oh..."
....................................................and the dinner went on quietly except for Genma's loud eating. No one noticed that Ranma wasn't eating, but had his attention to someone across from him. Akane noticed that Ranma wasn't eating, but she was oblivious that Ranma was staring at her once or twice a minute with his face scarlet red.
When everyone was done, Nabiki turned back to her manga that she has been reading, Genma went into dreamland in his panda form; with his beach ball next to him...and since Kasumi and Soun still didn't come down, Akane was left to clean up. With miserable look on her face, Akane turned to the sink. Damn family... leaving the youngest to work on the dishes?! Hmph!
When Akane was done with the dishes....well after breaking 7 plates and 3 cups, she collapsed on the floor from tiredness.
"Hey Akane, There's some more plates you forgot. And there's still food on them. You better clean them too!" Nabiki ordered as she went to the fridge to get a ice pop.
"Hey!!" Akane saw the plate and bowl and fury came. "Huh? Hey, I forgot about that. So Ranma really didnt eat? What's wrong with him?" I should go talk to him. Akane left the dishes there and went on the hunt for Ranma.
Ranma was up on the roof. -sigh- What am I gunna do now? She's stuck in my head. She was cute even when she ate!! Her soft ivory hands holding the chopsticks, and putting the food between her two smooth pink lips. ARGH!! I can't take it! What if I'm...what if I...What if i l-lo-love her?....Would she accept me?....... NO!! Of course not! What am I thinking?! Damn, but she's so cute...and..
"Ranma? Is that you? I was just looking for you cause you didn't..Ah!" Akane tripped and would've fell flat on her face if it werent for Ranma who has just caught her in his arms. She's...she's..she's in my arms....right now. She feels so light. Ranma's face burned up.
"Sorry." Akane said as she got on her feet. And Ranma slowly calmed down. "You didn't eat. Are you feeling ok?"
"Yea..I'm fine." Ranma said it coldly as he meant it to act cool. Argh, she's driving me crazy!
"Oh I was wondering..."
"Just leave...I want to be alone." No! I didn't mean it to come out like that!
He doesn't want me around. I bet he thinks I'm more weird because of what happened this morning....
"Well FINE! I WAS JUST WORRIED ABOUT YOU AND ALL IT WAS, WAS ONE OF YOUR MOODS!! AT LEAST YOU COULD APPRECIATE MY WORRIES!" Akane screamed in Ranma's face and turned around to leave. No, Akane! I didn't mean it that way! Akane! Wait!!
"AKANE WAIT!!" Ranma wrapped his arms around Akanes waist and pulled her back down into his arms. "I didn't mean it that way. It's just that....you...I think...I think I..."
"Ranma?" whispered Akane out of her astonishment.
"I love you Akane." Ranma finally managed to let it out.
Akane gasped. He loves me? He...Did...Did he just say that?!
