[Episode 35801] [Episode 35801]Sheila held onto Ranma tightly, squeeling in thrilled delight, as her finacee held her in his arms, while bounding from roof top to roof top with ease. While they had talked over their lives and such the night before and the Dojo, she found it hard to believe a normal human could bound from usch heights with relative ease...well that notion was out the window and she believed!
Ranma chuckled as Sheila gave another thrilled yell as he jumped off into the air. As much as he wnated to stick around and hurt the two bastards some more, and use Mousse & Kuno as punching bags if they continued to misbehave, he REALLY wanted to talk to Sheila. In private without ears and eyes listening in.
While it wasn't a TOTAL secret place, the underpass of the canal bridge was his favorite thinking spot besides the Dojo roof. Once there he let Sheila out of his arms...although reluctently as he had gotten use to the feeling of holding her close to him in such a manner.
Sheila eyed their surroundings. " What's this place?"
" Kinda my secondary hang-out when I need to think and be alone. Nothing fancy, but it gurantees no prying eyes, nor ears since this area of the district usually is quiet this time of day. We can talk in relative seclusion. " Ranma informed as he walked over to the canal edge.
Sheila walked up beside him, they were both silent in thought for a full minute, before Sheila decided to break the silence.
"..So what exactly did you have in mind to talk about?"
Smiling at her warmly, grateful she broke the silence as he was still in thought at the time, Ranma answered her back. " Us, what are we gonna do, the baby, etc."
" Oh." Sheila nodded her head. "..Ranma are you willing to marry me just because of the baby...or is there more to it?"
Ranma nodded, he expected that question at some point. " Well Sheila I've thought long and hard about that and I can say I can give you a straight answer, no stuttering, sugar coating, nor any pretenses or what."
" Okay..."
Ranma turned to face her fully. " Sheila remember this morning when I told you I felt that I really liked you? Well that was the truth, and there's more. Don't take this the wrong way Sheila, but yours well..a tomboy."
While not taken the offensive, Sheila did huff lightly. " Your point being?"
" Well Sheila at one point I DID, like that uncute tomboy Akane, but as time went on her anger and pride, along with my own mouth and ego kept getting in the way of us forming some sort of relationship. I tried to fix up my end of the bargin...yet... Sheila do you trust me?"
Sheila nodded instantly. " I do Ranma, you've proven to me your someone I can trust beyond a doubt with my life and any secrets I tell you, and that you would do the right thing when the time was right." Sheila then almsot felt blinded by the loving warm smile Ranma gave her...it could give Kasumi's bright smile a run for the money.
" That...was another major issue between me and Akane. She NEVER trusted me, at least fully. Whenever something happened, she jumped on the bandwagon blamming me for everything wrong that happened, and jumped to conclustions in situations where I was being set up. As far as I've concerned whatever she and I had is dead."
Ranma took a second to think of what he was to say next then continued.
" Sheila, you trust me, and you maybe a tomboy, but you aren't an uncute, violent, angry, or sometimes psychopath bitch. You're a strong woman who's far from the damsel in distress, and have the skills to back it up, where as Akane keeps bitching she can fight, but all she hasto show for it is slightly above basic moves and brute strength. You have grace, above par skills, and can back up any words you may say about handling yourself."
Sheila smiled warmly and hugged Ranma, relishing the warmth she felt from his words. He returned the hug as he continued.
" You have all the qualities I had loved about Akane, and then some without the faults. And for the record Sheila despite your so-called birth-defect I think you look beautiful in your hybrid form, and because there's a wonderful person that accomanpies the package you came in, it wouldn't matter what if you aren't some big-chested knock out or not. You have your own inner & outter beauty I find attractive. Sheila besides the baby, the reason I want to marry you is because I know I would be happy with you, to me your best thing that happened to me since comming to Nerima."
Sheila felt her eyes moisten in happiness, Ranma's words were so good to hear, and they were geniune..sincere...making her heart swell and beat rapidly.
" Sheila I want to marry you most of all is because, I think I am, truely, deeply falling madly in love with you...and I want to spend the rest of my live with you, and raise our child together." Ranma said sincerely taking her hand into his, his eyes locked onto hers.
Sheila looked up at Ranma, tears of joy leaving her eyes, unable to speak as she was choked up with happiness, she threw herself at Ranma wrapping her arms around his neck, and kissing him with all the pent up passion she could muster. Her actions doing the speaking for her.
..I love you....
AN: Awwwwwww wasn't that sweet?
