Akane's New Task: A Sister's Support... [Episode 124340]

Kasumi had never experienced the dreaded 'puppy dog eyes' attack before, after all it was supposed to work best against males, and only stand a chance against females if used by a young child. Perhaps it was that Kasumi remembered taking the place of her own mother for Akane, perhaps it was that Kasumi thought Akane and Ranma went together so well, in any case Kasumi reached out and gathered Akane into a welcoming hug:
"Of course I'll help Akane-chan. What would you like me to do?"

For a long moment Akane lay quiscient in Kasumi's embrace, giving Kasumi time to become aware that her little sister had grown up and most definately was not flat-chested as Ranma sometimes taunted, Kasumi blushed a little at the realisation, but decided not to comment on it, it would only upset Akane, and Kasumi found that she was enjoying the feel of Akane's nude form pressed against her own and didn't want to end the hug until she had to. Akane squrimed a little and Kasumi smiled downwards as Akane turned her gaze up to her older sister, Akane's face was red, quite red, Kasumi wasn't sure if it was the hot bath, the intimate embrace they were in or the subject matter they were discussing. It didn't really matter, although Kasumi found she had to firmly suppress the impulse to plant an un-sisterly kiss on Akane's lips, fortunately, or not, Akane began speaking:
"I... I want to let Ranma know how I feel, that I want to marry him, that... that I love him. And then I want him to... to propose, to tell me that he feels the same way", for a second Akane paused, then she continued in a low, strained voice, "...but I don't know how, every time I've tried to get close to Ranma something has gone wrong, either someone interferes or the Baka gets all stupid and won't stop insulting me until I hit him."
Kasumi began idly running her hand up and down Akane's back, the feel of the smooth skin and firm muscles beneath her hand, forcing her thoughts in a different direction, Kasumi began think out loud, without stopping her hand:
"Part of the problem is that Ranma is scared, hmmm... wary might be a better term, of making a real emotional committment. His fathers training I suspect. And Ranma's only fallback behaviour is what he remembers from his childhood. And you make matters worse by reacting childishly to Ranma's childish taunts. Then again, that's partly why Ranma has come to like you more than any of the others, he finds the way the two of you bicker comfortable and familiar, where the more... adult... approach of the other girls makes him defensive and uncertain. What we need to do is put him in a situation where he has to react as an adult to you, where he can't fall back on childish insults."

Kasumi ended her reply and thought in silence, blushing slightly as she realised that her erect nipples pressing into Akane, and from the feel, Akane's equally erect nipples were pushing into her, almost in reflex Kasumi tried to close her hand, only to realise it had wandered down to Akane's ass and she was squeezing her little sister's firm and sexy behind. Going to a deep blush Kasumi dragged her mind (but not her hands) back to the idea of getting Akane and Ranma married, which seemed a less appealing idea than it had a minute ago. A thought struck Kasumi, and she smiled:
"An Omiai", Kasumi stated with glee, "We get Nodoka-san to arrange a formal Omiai for the two of you, and we let Ranma know that if he doesn't propose afterwards then your engagement is dissolved. The formal setting will intimidate Ranma and remind him that he has to be an adult, you will have your chance to tell him that you love him and want to get married, and once you've done your part, I think we can count on Ranma to do his."
Akane stared up at Kasumi and stammered out in a scared voice:
"But... but what if he doesn't propose? What if he dumps me rather than marry me?"
Kasumi pulled Akane into a tighter hug and leaned forward to whisper in Akane's ear:
"Don't worry. Ranma does love you, he was willing to marry you before, and it wasn't just for the nannichuan water", in her mind Kasumi thought, but was careful not to say, "...and if he dumps you, the sooner the better, you'll need to get over him and get on with your own life."
Leaning back, Kasumi giggled:
"And if you really want him to make the right choice, seduce him before the Omiai."
Akane went totally scarlet at this and mumbled a low voiced reply:
"... but... but I wanted our first time to be our wedding night..."

Kasumi attributed Akane's desire to a strong romantic streak, it struck Kasumi that a lot of the younger girls problems with Ranma could be solved if Ranma just realised Akane wanted to be courted and romanced by someone she could respect. A wicked thought struck Kasumi and she leaned forward to whisper huskily in Akane's ear:
"...and if you want your first time to be your wedding night, just seduce Onna-Ranma, that way your first boy can still be your wedding night", an evil smile played across Kasumi's lips and she found herself adding, "I can feel that you like sexy girls cuddling you, so you'd want to try out Onna-Ranma at some stage anyway."
Kasumi could see the already scarlet Akane blush even more, surprising really, and before the younger girl could burst into denial or make some other reaction, Kasumi let her impulse flow and kissed her sister full on the lips. Akane froze for a second then moaned into the kiss, Kasumi held the kiss for what seemed like a hour, then broke it with a sigh:
"I'm afraid I need to go start on breakfast Akane-chan. You stay here and think things over. If you don't tell me otherwise, I'll speak to Aunty Nodoka, but I'll leave Ranma to you for now."
With those words, Kasumi gently pushed Akane back to the other end of the furo and climbed out, favouring her still stunned little sister with a smile as she left.

=====================================================================

Left to herself, Akane thoughts whirled as she continued to blush, Kasumi was sexy, Kasumi was a great kisser, Kasumi wanted to set up an omiai for her, Kasumi was sexy, Kasumi thought she should seduce Onna-Ranma, oh god!, Kasumi was so sexy, it felt so good when Kasumi held her, when their bodies were pressed together, would Onna-Ranma feel so good?, what should she do if she wanted to seduce onna-Ranma, maybe she should give up on the wedding night and seduce otoko-Ranma, it would be easier to move to Onna-Ranma than to start with Onna-Ranma - wouldn't it?

=====================================================================

Akane's thoughts were a mad whirl for the rest of the day. But she didn't tell Kasumi to drop her idea.
