Chapter 4: A Very Special Day

Thankfully she accepted his present. When she opened the small package, she saw a sparkling ring.
Akane looked at Ranma, touched. The latter noticed this and stood in front of her. He took the ring and put it on her finger. A moment later he walked behind her and whispered something in her ear. "What do you want to do today?" "Uh .. so .." "Take your time. I'll wait for you upstairs." "Phew ..." He went to his room and sat on the bed.
Akane was still sitting motionless. She still couldn't believe what he just did. Ranma gave her a beautiful gold ring, engraved with her name.
"OH Ranma. Why ...?" She looked at the ring again before going upstairs to Ranma.
Meanwhile, Ranma has packed a bag. When Akane wanted to enter his room, she saw Ranma right in front of her, he was just going down to get Akane. "Come on, we're going."Then he took her hand and dragged her into the entrance area of ​​the hotel." Tell me, Ranma, what are you going to do? And why in such a hurry. "" If we don't hurry, we won't make it in time, is that enough? "Just when he was finished with his answer he let go of it and then went on straight ahead, but at a certain speed.
* What is he up to? * Because all the way, they hardly talked to each other until: "You, tell me. Is it really true that you never learned to swim?" Asks Ranma, ending the silence. "Huh .. um .. yes? Why do you want to know that ?!" he returned to her kindly, with a smile on his face that made Akane's heart beat faster. Shortly afterwards she saw the sea on the horizon. She couldn't believe they had come here. "Here we are. So how about? Would you like to learn to swim ??" he said the last words more quietly than the first. “Hm?” She wasn't listening properly as Akane was impressed by the beautiful view.They march to a shady place under a palm tree. Akane took her swimsuit out of her pocket and went to the nearest changing room. Ranma went to the showers first, showered cold and took off his clothes because he was already wearing them. When Akane returned, Ranma noticed that Akane has a new swimsuit. "You ... look great." "There ... thank you ..." A slight shimmer of red settled on her face.
Ranma wants Akane to come into the water with her. Since Akane cannot swim, she defends herself first, but Ranma was able to persuade her to come into the water. He took her hand and took her into the water. Akane wonders why he was so nice to her. “Why are you doing this?” “It's about time you learned to swim.” Akane received it like an insult, whereupon she slapped him and ran out of the water. "Wh ... wait!" "Why should I?" Akane stopped and turned to Ranma. "You're making fun of the fact that I can't swim yet."Slowly tears came to her eyes." But no! "" Then why are you doing this? "Now it fell to her. She went out of the water. Ranma followed her. When Akane was almost out of the water, she suddenly hugged Ranma from behind. She stopped." Please stay here. I just want to show you. It wasn’t on purpose in case I insulted you. "" * sniff * Is ... Are you serious ...? "He read loosely and Akane turned to Ranma. Ranma nodded in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, Akane grabbed his hand and went into the water first. + What did she suddenly have? + Ranma wondered in her mind. + Well. +
Ranma taught Akane to do it now. What surprised him most was that she was very attentive and understood it very quickly. It was fun for both of them, especially since no one bothered them. After a while, Akane could swim as well as Ranma. After they both came out of the water, Akane thanked them in an unfamiliar way. She looked at him. Deep in the eyes. Ranma felt a certain warmth.He wanted to hug her right away, but he couldn't just do that. (What a shame ??) "Thank you, thank you very much!"[Akane]"I was happy to do it." (Although it had to be quite exhausting to teach Akane to swim!) In the evening they both go back to the hotel. On the way home, Ranma asks Akane what they want to do tomorrow and also: "Akane?" "What is Ranma?" "Would you like me ... um ... with me ..." It was obvious to Ranma somewhat uncomfortable. She didn't understand, so she asked. “Yes?” “Are we going to the thermal springs together?” Ranma said it briefly, but a little loudly, which startled Akane. "Just ... the two of us?" She asked nervously. Ranma nodded. Akane grinned friendly and answered with a “YES” (sounds like a wedding, doesn't it?) “OK, how about 8pm at the springs ?!” Ranma said, relieved. "OK. I'll be there."
In the meantime they have arrived at the hotel. Akane pensively goes into her room and imagines many things that probably never would be.For example that he says that he ...
It is now 7:45 p.m. Akane put on her swimsuit, takes a towel, and sets off for the springs.
In the meantime, Ranma has prepared something that Akane will never forget. A little before eight, Akane arrives at the springs. She looks around and notices that nobody is there. Now Ranma comes around the corner (the spring has a wall to separate man and woman. He comes from the other side ...). Ranma tells Akane to come in. At first she hesitates a little, but then she walks into the water.

So. The CUTE part comes in the next chapter. If you send me a few comments, you will get it sooner. Promised!
