Chapter 7 A Night to Remember
Ranma hugged herself in the blister cold. 'Stupid soda!' He ungratefully thought as he leaned on one of the tree branches that were owned by the willow tree that he sat on. He sighed inwardly. There was nothing to hide now. Everybody knew now about his Jusenkyo curse. She hugged herself tighter, it was getting dark and colder. 'Maybe I should go home now. Akane . . . Oh! I almost forgot Akane!' Ranma snapped back to reality at the thought of Akane when . . .
"I found you!" someone shrieked.
Ranma was so shocked by the sudden appearance of that someone that he nearly fell off the tree. (come on animate!!!)
"Ranma!" She screamed as she grabbed Ranma by the arm and gently took her up on the tree branch again.
"Whew that was close!!!" Akane said, the back of her hand, wiping the sweat that had formed on her forehead. "What were you thinking Ran! . . ma . . . " Akane said, slightly cut by the look in Ranma's face. "Ranma? Daijobu?" Akane said quietly.
Ranma nodded, hugging herself again.
Akane noticed the shivering in Ranma's body and by impulse she hugged her.
Ranma blushed. He felt her again, her warm chest, the scent of her body, her heartbeat, her cold arms, her breathing and her gentle touch. Then suddenly he felt warm lips against his cheek. Ranma blushed crimson or even worse.
"Ranma . . . Arigato . . . for helping me awhile ago." Akane said still hugging the little thing in her arms " And sorry . . . this wouldn't have happened if I kicked his butt in the first place. " Akane apologized. She, then, smiled and continued "You know what . . . Ranma. I've always wanted to thank you."
"For what?" Ranma replied, curiously, not feeling his present age at the moment.
"For everything . . . You've always helped me, saved me" her eyes glistened "And every time I want to thank you, I say different things . . . and sometimes knock you out. ^giggles^ What am I saying?" she thought out loud when she realized what she was doing." You probably don't understand. Ne Ranma? I'm sorry I'm saying crazy things again." Akane said feeling a bit hopeless as she felt the cold wind gust around them.
"Ranma?" Akane silently said in a gentle voice. "Let's go home . . . we might catch a cold if we stay here longer. . ."
Ranma nodded and they leapt from the tree.
Akane smiled as Ranma took her hand, holding it tightly.
'It almost felt like . . . its Ranma . . . ' Akane thought as she held little Ranma's hand onto hers.
Ranma, however, has his own matters in his head. He didn't care if those people knew about his curse. The hell they care. Besides if he goes back in his normal stature, those people who had seen him changed wouldn't have guessed that it was him.
And now as they walked down the street he thought, 'Akane would we ever be this way if I ever go back? Eh?! What way? What am I talking about!!! ^syntax error in his brain^ Why do I keep thinking of her anyway!!! Eh?! Why am I holding her hand?! Did I do that?!' Ranma was startled, yet at the heat of the moment he didn't let go of Akane's hand, instead he held it tighter, afraid to let go.
~^~^~^~^~^~^
A/n :The end! Nah! I was just joking! Fast forward please! Sorry I'm too lazy again! To the "THAT NIGHT" part please!
~^~^~^~^~^~^~
That night
It was nearly 8:00 PM when the two arrived at the Tendo Household, both tired and exhausted from the days events. And instead of eating dinner, they slumped themselves to bed (They're still sleeping together in this part. Okay?) after fixing themselves, of course. And for the first time that week, both had slept the moment they reached the bed. They deserved sleep and the upcoming events. Trust me. ^_~*
Around 2:30 AM more or less
Ranma woke, he had heard Akane moan. Then suddenly he heard her crying while sleep talking. He stood up and went to check on Akane if there was something wrong. Lifting her bangs, he saw, tears that had made its path across Akane's cheek.
"Ranma . . . co . . .come back . . ." Akane softly said as more tears flooded out from her eyes.
Ranma was struck.
'She wanted me back . . .?' Ranma thought as he stared at the girl. He caressed her cheek, careful no to wake her up.
'You wanted me back.?' Ranma thought.
Then again , the same words escaped Akane's lips.
Ranma then spoke.
"Akane. I'm here, I've always been, if you just look at me . . . I want to be back too. I . . . I want . . . you . . . I"
And with that Ranma shut his eyes as he neared Akane's lips, leaning closer to her when. . .
AKANE"S EYES FLOPPED OPEN!!!
Ranma fell on his back in shock. Was she awake the whole time? Did she hear what I just said? And before he knew it he was 2 meters away from Akane's bed.
Akane stood up, shocked herself. "Who's there?!" Akane said bravely, thinking that it was some thief who entered her room.
"A. . . Akane-oneechan? It's me." Ranma said while his hand ran through his hair, scratching his scalp lightly.
Akane was dumbfounded with what she saw.
"Nani? Akane-oneechan? Daijobu? Akane!!!" Ranma screamed when she didn't seem to respond. He frantically went to her, shaking her shoulder slightly. "Akane!!!"
Then he noticed, that he was looking down on Akane. This must mean . . .
"I'm back to normal!!! I'm back!!! Yahoo!!!!" Ranma jumped around wildly, leaving Akane astonished.
'He's back. . . Ranma. . .but how'd he know . . .' Akane thought as she saw him spun around the dark room.
Then suddenly . . . the lights were on. . . ^_^
"What's happening here, Akane-chan?" Soun asked glumly but his face changed as he saw Ranma. "Ranma-kun!!! You're back!!!" Soun said tears flowing from his eyes, happily dancing around with the famous fan. . . with Genma.
But there was one problem left . . .

Akane blinked once. Twice. Then stress marks coming out of her face. "Ranma you pervert!!!"
Now, we see a Ranma flying to the moon. (Ever wonder why Akane sent him to the moon? Ranma wore small clothes before he returned back to his real age when he came back physically and I guess you know what happened ^rip!^ he had practically had nothing on! Ehehehe!)
"Akane, why'd you do that!!! You lousy tomboy!!!" Ranma shouted as he flew to the moon.
Akane stammered at first and then regretted it miserably. She shouldn't have done that but. . . he's practically naked! What was she to do!!! Well The usual! Mallet him!!!
Akane went by the window, peeking through it and looking at the sky. "Ranma!!!" She screamed. "Baka!!!" and then she smiled happily, a smile that was never seen before.
While in the background, Genma and Soun danced and sung happily. It was a dream come true for them . Because at this rate, Ranma and Akane are practically married. Nabiki and Kasumi, however, were quietly smiling at each other at a job well done. Everything went on well now. . .
In the morning
Everybody woke up extra-early that morning. They all welcomed Ranma back except for Akane, who was quietly eating her breakfast.
"Kasumi-oneechan! Arigato for the breakfast! I'm leaving!" And with that Akane left the house without waiting for Ranma.
"Oi!!! Akane will yah wait up!" Ranma said while he packed his mouth with Kasumi's wonderful pancakes, leaving the others behind smiling.
^_^
"Oi Akane! Wait up!" Ranma followed her, this time not on the fence but by her side.
Akane stopped to wait for him.
And when he reached her . . .
There was . . .
Silence.
They walked slowly, enjoying the morning when . . .
"Akane" "Ranma" they said at the same time.
Both blushed.
Silence once again.
"Umm . . ." They said in unison as they looked each other in the eye. ^_^
"You go first." Ranma said.
"No, you go." Akane replied.
"No, you go." Ranma replied.
Akane finally gave in, for she didn't want to ruin the moment.
"Uh . . . Ranma . . ." Akane blushed.
Ranma looked at her expectantly.
"I . . . um . . . I'm glad you're back." Akane said blushing madly, her eyes downcast while in her thoughts 'Wait a sec. He isn't supposed to know about the curse, right?. He should have a 6-year-old's mind! Oh well . . . whatever.' She said emptying her doubts bin.
"That's all." Akane finished, as she looked at Ranma. "What about you Ranma? What are you supposed to say?"
"About last night . . ."
Akane looked at the other direction.
"Um . . . Ididn'tKNOWthatIwasNAKEDthatTIMEandANDiDON'TknowWHAThappenedNEXT!" Ranma said without even in gasping for breath.
Akane blinked innocently.
"And . . ." Ranma continued.
"Ah . . . Akane . . . I . . ." Ranma started when . . .
"Ranma-sama!"
"Airen!"
"Ran-chan!"
His other three fiancées hugged him, which, caused him to land on the street.
"Ranma-sama!!! I've missed you so much! Are you fully recovered from your measles and chicken pox? OHOHOHOH!!!"
"Airen!!! You've finally got out curse! Now we date. Yes? Yes?"
"Ran-chan how was your Training trip?"
The three asked all at the same time. "What are you three talking about?!" Ranma shrieked, utterly confused.
Akane, however, was enrage. 'After I told him, I was glad he's back! Hmpf!' she thought as she stomped her way to school.
Meanwhile in Ranma's custody
"Look, Ran-chan was on a training trip!"
"Ranma-sama, what a terrible fate you have!"
"No, Airen, has curse and he got out because of our love!"
"Hey, I don't know what you're talking about and I gotta go! See yah around!" He said as freed himself, cunningly running towards Akane, grabbing her hand.
"Ranma-sama! Wait for me!"
"Airen what you doing!"
"Ran-chan!"
The three followed.
"Ranma! What are you doing?!" Akane screamed as he pulled her gently not forcefully.
Ranma looked behind at Akane while running. "Why? Isn't it fun?"
Akane smiled as she replied. "It is fun."
And as if by cue, Kuno, Ryoga, Mousse, popped out of nowhere, suddenly attacking Ranma.
"Why'd you come back! Saotome!"
"Ranma, release Akane!"
"You are not worthy for Shampoo!"
Ranma dodged all their attacks and when he met his chance, He carried Akane (Prince-style) to avoid Akane getting hurt. Then he ran again! Akane clung on his neck, shutting her eyes.
"What are you planning now!" Akane said as she held tighter on Ranma.
"Nothing! I don't plan!" Ranma replied, grinning as he held Akane closer.
With that he leapt over the School's closed gate! (they're late!) And before they reached the ground Ranma looked at Akane, and she him and both smiled.
"What a Big HAUL!!!" Happosai cried as he escaped the girls of Furinkan.
And the chase continued.
~^~^~^~^~^~^~~^~^~^~^~~^
"Well, now, everything looks normal." Cologne said as she stood in a corner, watching the morning's events.
"Hai. Everything is." Kasumi chirped back, basket in hand.
"I guess . . . he chose Akane."
Kasumi looked startled. "Oba-san?"
"Hoho! There is a cure for the curse."
"There is?" Kasumi asked.
"My child, to get out of the curse of maturity you must fall in love. Hmmm . . . so this is the youth." Cologne muttered, a smiled pasted on her face.
"So . . . ka" Kasumi smiled. "I'll keep it a secret."
And with that . . . everything is done.
~Fin~
