Hello there. This is my first Ranma 1/2 ficcy, and it's a song fic. Heh. I'll be working on an actually story fic for Ranma soon, but this was an idea I had that popped into my head. This fic will be about my favorite (should-be) couple, Mousse and Shampoo. The song is by No Doubt. I'm not sure if this would be called WAFFY-( what dose that mean anywho??) The characters should be IC, but this is a bit angst and dramatic and happy too.
Dis: I don't own Ranma 1/2
Mousse jabbed hard with the weapon he held in his hand. His opponent was relentless, never backing down. He quickly switched weapons and stuck again through and at the air. He never his moves were fast, but he felt so slow. He stopped for a moment, quietly sighing. He'd starting training again.
" Stupid Mousse! Should be working, not training." Shampoo said from his left.
He'd been unaware-surprisingly- that Shampoo was there.
" I have the day off, and I need to train if I want to beat Saotome." Mousse turned.
He was trying hard not to jump over to Shampoo and embrace her. She sighed.
" Muu Tzu, you'll never learn, will you?" She said quietly, but loud enough for him to hear. With that she turned and began walking inside. She smiled to her self; something she'd never let anyone see. She'd been watching him train for twenty minutes before she had spoke. A tiny frown made it's way to her face. How much longer did she have to push him like this?
Mouse turned back and tried to focus again, but it wasn't working. His thoughts had been turned back to his love. He couldn't focus right, and wound up hitting himself with his own mace. He stumbled, but kept standing. After a moment he chuckled to himself, and he remembered a time when they were young; how they'd be training together for lengths of time unknown.
You and me
We used to be together
Every day together- always
He'd always do some of his more complex moves to impress her. For the longest time, he'd just injure himself, but eventually, he was able to almost master the move. However he never used their full potential against her. He was getting thirsty, so he decided to stop and get a drink. As he walked in, he saw a heart-wrenching site; one he'd seen a few times before. Shampoo kissing, or being kissed, by Ranma. The sting was inevitable, but he made his way to the kitchen quickly. After guzzling down three glasses of water, he turned to fine Shampoo enter the kitchen with an order slip.
" If you no work today, no come in kitchen!" She said annoyed.
" I was thirsty." He said with an equal tone, but didn't realize it until he'd said it.
Shampoo blinked at him, then with a near scowl on her face replied.
" Whatever. Airen hungry. Move!" She shoved Mousse a little harder than intending into a counter to get the ramen, then disappeared back outside.
Mousse sighed.
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
Mousse walked back out, watching Shampoo glomp onto Ranma, who was just trying to wolf down the bowl of ramen before him. Mousse grinned. ' All we need now is for Tendo Akane to come in and-'
" Ranma, NO BAKA!!"
Mousse grinned half-heartedly, and went up to his room. Shampoo watched his actions out of the corner of her eye. Now that Ranma was gone, along with his 'Violent-Girl' Fiancee, there were no other customers to serve. She decided to go apologize to Mousse about shoving him. However if he started acting up, she'd just play up something like the tables needed cleaning. Mousse was in his room staring out the window, at nothing in particular. In his mind, replaying over and over all the times Shampoo was harsh to him, but for some reason, they never seemed as real as when she had just shoved him now.
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real,
Well I don't want to know
Shampoo was about to knock on the door, when she noticed it was open slightly. She peered through the crack. He was just standing there, with his back to the door. She entered quietly, and for a moment just watched him; trying to figure what to say.
"Mousse, I-"
" No."
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Shampoo blinked. Did he just say 'no'? She started to feel a little agitated.
" Muu Tzu, I'm sorry." That didn't help one bit. It sounded forced, because of the mix of shock and agitation in her voice. She heard a chuckle. He turned to face her. She stepped back. He was crying; but never like this. She'd never seen him cry out of- what? Defeat.
Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening
Memories came flooding her mind. Things that cut her to the core that she never let anyone know. Never let anyone, even herself, feel.
" I am too." He had a slight amount of venom in his voice.
She knew it was from what she did. All the times she'd pounded him, she never meant anything in it. She may have acted harsh, but she never put those emotions in hitting him. But just a while ago, she had. She bit her lip, anger rising in herself. Mousse sat down on his bed.
" Can you leave please?" He said it softly, but it was hinted with malaise. He brought his hands up to his face, rubbing his eyes and face, but the tear still came silently.
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry
" Muu Tzu-"
" Just go!" He shouted.
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts [No, no, no!]
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
She had finally pushed him too far. She knew he would never hit her, but he was yelling at her. Mostly out of his pain. She winced at his outburst.
" Just go." He whispered. " Go play housewife to your Airen."
That stung her. She opened her mouth to speak, but her words were lost.
It's all ending
I gotta stop pretending who we are...
[Instrumental]
Now was the time that pride needed to be shoved aside.
You and me
I can see us dying ... are we?
" Xian Pu, go-"
" Muu Tzu-Shut up!" It wasn't a command. More like a forcing plea.
Mousse fought the urge to look up.
" Just shut up for one moment." A soft, almost trembling voice.
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts [No no!]
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts!
She walked over to him, placing her hands on his face and lifting his head up to met her eyes. She wiped the tear away with her thumbs.
" I'm sorry. Please understand that."
" Xain Pu-"
She hushed him by slipping her thumb over his lips.
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't speak
Don't speak
Don't speak, No!
" Why don't you go train some more?" She said softly. He looked at her confused. She leaned over and kissed his forehead gently. His look took on an expression of a lost child. She looked back at him, smiling softly, wiping away his remaining tears. Suddenly, his expression changed to one of understanding. He'd do anything for her. She knew that. She relentlessly pushed him away. In doing so, he'd just even further to prove himself. She was pushing not away, but to be his best. Pushing him to exceed his limits. To be the best. He smiled.
I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
I know you're good
I know you're good
I know you're real good, oh!
Don't! Don't!
" Xain Pu. Thank you." He smiled.
" I lov-"
" Hush. Just be quiet." She said softly, sitting next to him. She leant forward, resting her forehead against his, and smiled; hands his on his face. Finally, he understood. But only until he reached his limits, and proceeded past them did she want to hear him say what he'd always felt for her. It hurt her too much. The pain they both suffered. Pain that she caused. Soon, everything would be, as it should.
[Oh, Oh]
Hush, hush darling
Hush, hush darling
Hush hush
Don't tell me cause it hurts!
Hush, hush darling
Hush, hush darling
Hush, hush,
Don't tell me cause it hurts!
