Ranma 1/2: Two Become One [ON HOLD]

Ch. 3: Fight for Affection

I pant softly as I jog and performed a few karate moves down the street. I stopped as I neared the entrance of my house. I wiped my forehead as I pumped into my father, "Ooops! Sorry father I didn't see where I was going." 

"It's Fine, Megumi. How was your morning routine?" He smiles.

"It was refreshing!" I happily said.

"Say Megumi, can you and Akane take Ranma with you to school today." Father said as he sits down for breakfast.

"Sure dad-W-Wait! What? Why father?" I claimed as I finished wiping my face.

"Ranma and his father will be staying with us for a while." He says happily as he opens up his newspaper.

"You're not serious are you?" I raised my eyebrow. Hoping what I herd was wrong, yet father shakes his head. Signaling that he was indeed serious.

I sighed, *Why Me?*

After taking a quick bath, I changed into my blue uniform dress. While I tied my hair with my white ribbon, Kasumi calls out to me, "Megumi I made your lunch bento. Is on the table, Ok?"

I smiled at myself on the mirror since I was satisfied how I appeared, "Ooookie!" I quickly walked out my room when I noticed that Ranma walking down the hallway.

"Uhh..." Ranma was stumped as well, he didn't expect to see me. He stared down at me not knowing if I was going yell at him or anything. I notice his reaction, which made me feel awful. I didn't meant to hit him yesterday, but what girl would not freak out when they find a guy in the restroom?

"Ah Ranma..." I grabbed my left arm as I looked down at the floor, "Umm...I am sorry about yesterday I really am." I rubbed my shoulder out of nervous reflex.

Ranma was shocked. *What? She is apologized to me?* Ranma scratched his head, "Its ok. I don't blame you for reacting that way. I supposed you were shocked. It's was our fault for not explain everything for the beginning. Everything would have been different if we did. I am sorry, I didn't meant all that to happened yesterday."

I was surprised to hear him apologized, I didn't expect him to apologize back. I looked up at smiled at him, "Thank you, Ranma. Well I hope you're ready, I'll wait for you so we can go to school together."  I walked down the stairs. Ranma stared at me dumfounded.

"That's a great quality she has to become your fiancé, Ranma." Genma speaks behind him.

Ranma was shocked to see his father behind him, "Ack! What are you talking about?"

Genma smiles, "She is courteous. She apologized to you for hitting you yesterday. Wouldn't you think that makes an attracting characteristic for a fiancé?"

Ranma blushed, "N-No it don't!" Ranma grabs his school bag from his father's hand.

I am walking beside my twin, while Ranma walks on the fence. I looked up at Ranma, "Aren't you afraid you gonna fall onto the water, Ranma."

"Tsk! Nah, I got perfectly good balance." He smirks to himself.

I pondered to myself as I grabbed hold of my chin, "Hmmm...What are we gonna say when our classmates sees us walking to school with Ranma, Akane?"
