Flip The Coin: Lost Direction [Episode 162910]

by Kender

Yet, Ryoga continued to sleep onwards, apparently feeling quite comfortable as he slumbered along side her. There was no way to doubt that it was him, what with his bulky body, and strong features. By any indication, it didn't seem like he was put out by the fact that he was bedded down with her. And with her wits dulled by the remnants of her own sleep, she was left a little lost as to what to do about this.

It was especially important to do as she didn't feel threatened by his presence. As this was a rather close contact between the two of them, she understood that they would have usually been ready to smack the heck out of each other for such a transgression. However, she wasn't in a mood to hurt him all that bad, and so he was still left breathing. All that she could do was to let herself mentally pull back and regroup until she could figure out what had happened.

Dropping back down to lay where she'd been sleeping, she tried to ignore the warmth of his body, and found it to be a hard thing to do. Even if she was wearing a shirt over her body, it was not all that much protection against the sense of him being there. Her bare legs rubbed up against each other to keep away from him, until she realized just how that could be taken, and forced herself to stop. This was not a time when she could just let things go on, but she needed to know what the hell was going on around her at that moment.

Laying her forearm across her forehead, she blew out an impatient breath when she saw something that brought her recent memories to the forefront. She immediately remembered just what had happened, and knew that this wasn't something that Ryoga was supposed to get into trouble for. In fact, it was quite innocuous, which made it a rather easy thing to handle. She knew that her dreams, along with the fact that she was unused to waking up with other people sleeping with her was what made her forget.

But now she knew what had happened, and laughed slightly at her own silliness as she looked at the:

• wedding ring on her finger, which Ryoga had slipped onto her hand when they'd gotten married.
• room at the inn where they were staying at, which had had only a single, one bed room available when the two of them had come there.
• medicine waiting nearby for the two of them to take it to deal with their fevers.
• frost on the window, which reminded her that they were there to share body warmth.
• as in any of the above, but she also remembered that she was Ranko, Ranma's girl side taken on a separate life of her own.
• something else.
