11:00 pm, Tendo residence. By this time the rain was already gone, leaving behind deep damp puddles, waiting to evaporate for the following day. The only one left awake was Akane Tendo, stirring but never sleeping. She just couldn't, not after what happened today; or to be more precise what didn't happen. I know I shouldn't expect anything of Ranma, but still! It was my birthday. Honestly, why can't he be more considerate of others… Just because we're engaged doesn't mean he has to like me or anything, but really. Even a card would've been good enough, you know, something to show that at least he's a good person, but why should I care? I don't like him! He wouldn't even like a tomboy like me anyhow…
Suddenly, she heard a light rap on the window. Ranma was hanging from the roof, his hair flowing down in one long braid. He was still wearing his regular Chinese martial art fare; the long red silk ribbon-up shirt, baggy black pants, and slip on shoes.
The window squeaked, letting in the chill of the cold night air. "What do you want Ranma?" He slipped in, landing without a sound.
"Well, umm," For some reason he was hesitating. "I… well you see I…"
"Come on! Spit it out! I don't have all day you know." Wait a minute… Is Ranma blushing?
Ranma cleared his throat, readying himself to speak. "I wanted to give this in private…"
He took his arms out from behind his back, and presented her with a gift. Attached was a tag, and scrawled on it were the following words. "Happy birthday Akane, hope you like this. Found this a while ago near Jusenkyo, and I've never really had the use for it so yeah. Here you go." She tore up the layers of newspaper and duct tape to reveal a small candy tin, which to her surprise was somewhat heavy. The tin plinked open, to reveal a necklace with a smooth gold triangle.
"Wow, thanks Ranma…I never realised-"
"Here, let me," He took the necklace from her hands, and put it delicately around her neck. The jewel seemed to glow, as if it was pulsating. Akane smiled. "Well, do you like it?"
And by surprise, Akane took him into a tight small hug, fingers clutched at his back. "Yes, Thank you."
Ranma put his mouth close to her ear and whispered, "You know, you're cute when you smile."
