The Love They Never Knew
Shamie-Chan: Yeah! I’ve made it to my second fanfiction ever!!! I was so
surprised by the reviews I received for my Kagome x Sango fic and it
made me jump to getting a new fic done and here it is! Oh, here’s the
“Deep Manly Voice” to give you the rights and so on a so forth. ^^
Deep Manly Voice: Shamie-Chan in no way owns the characters of Ranma ½.
The characters are all works of the glorious Rumiko Takahashi.
Shamie-Chan: I only own the situation, not the characters. Enough with
this and on with the fic! ^o^;;
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
It was Saturday night at Ucchan’s and Ukyo was sitting at one of the
tables, sipping some herbal tea, watching the TV mounted in the upper
corner of the establishment. Closing time was a half hour ago and she
was glad. There had been great business today but the rush of all the
people was almost overwhelming. She was thankful for Konatsu, knowing if
it weren’t for him the day would have been a nightmare.
Her thoughts came to an abrupt halt when a figure casually entered
Ucchan’s front door. “Shampoo…” Ukyo looked surprised at her company and
decided this must be some new plot of Shampoo’s to get Ranma, why else
would she come. Shampoo was her rival chef and rival fiancée for her
Ran-Chan. “You know it’s called breaking and entering if you enter a
closed establishment at night don’t you honey?”
Shampoo smiled and leaned against the wall to her side. “We need talk
spatula-girl.” Shampoo glanced towards the door for a second but soon
was looking straight into Ukyo’s eyes again.
Ukyo knew something had to be going on, see looked over at the door and
found nothing amiss. “And what is it we need to talk about?” Ukyo looked
toward the wall Shampoo had been leaning against seconds ago, but found
no one there. She turned abruptly to find Shampoo seated next to her.
She jumped slightly, regained her composure, opened her mouth to ask how
Shampoo did that but was cut off by Shampoo suddenly leaning forwards
inches from Ukyo’s face.
“Great-Grandmother no happy. You take good business all day this day and
she want know why.” Shampoo continued looking deep in Ukyo’s eyes.
Now Ukyo was officially uncomfortable, being so close to Shampoo. But
soon she became annoyed. She looked sharply at Shampoo with a flustered
face, “Maybe it’s because Ucchan’s dinning is better than the Cat Café.”
Ukyo smiled when she saw a hint of anger pass through Shampoo’s face.
She leaned back in her chair becoming bored with the situation.
“Anyways, it’s not like you can do anything about my business being
better than yours. Maybe you walking around naked after turning back
from neko-mode scares away your more fortuned customers, sugar.”
“Aiyaah! Is you saying Shampoo ugly?!” Shampoo jumped out of her seat,
looking down at Ukyo angrily.
‘Uh-oh,’ Thought Ukyo, ‘I better not get her mad in here , I don’t want
to pay for the damage she’d cause.’ “Uhhh, Shampoo? Can we discuss this
later? I’m actually really tired from today’s work and I don’t think
it’d be fair to fight you when I have the obvious disadvantage.”
Shampoo’s face furrowed in concentration. She looked down at Ukyo again
only to find her standing up next to the chair she had been sitting in.
Then she looked at the door again and visibly became less tense. Her
anger subsided and she let out a little whimper and she looked down at
the floor.
Ukyo was intrigued. She looked at the door and still found it the same,
she walked to it, opened it, found no one outside and shut it again. She
plodded over to Shampoo angrily, “This is starting to annoy me. What’s
going...” She let her sentence trail off when she saw Shampoo’s sad
face. She looked like she was going to cry right then and there. Ukyo
put her hand on Shampoo shoulder and whispered, “What’s wrong.”
Shampoo shrugged Ukyo’s hand away and stepped back. “It nothing, I go
now.” Shampoo turned to leave but she was cut off by Ukyo, “You know you
can tell me what’s wrong don’t you sugar?”
Shampoo looked annoyed for a moment but soon the sad look came over her
face again. “I no think it your business.” Shampoo started going to the
door again but was once again cut off by Ukyo, “Obviously something is
wrong, and I would like to know if I could help.” Ukyo gasped inwardly,
‘Why am I doing this for this girl, she’s my rival!’ But one look into
Shampoo’s eyes told her to stay there.
Shampoo stood still for a moment thinking, than said, “Okay, I tell
spatula-girl. But you no tell anyone, you understand yes?” Ukyo nodded
her head and both girls sat at one of the booths. Shampoo put her head
in her hands and stared blankly at the table. “Great-Grandmother get
letter. It say Shampoo must get a spouse in three week.”
Ukyo gasped, first thinking that there was no way she was letting this
girl get her Ran-Chan, then she thought about the command and
discontinued to be mad. “How can they force you to get a husband? That
sounds cruel!”
Shampoo looked up at Ukyo and blinked, “Amazon counsel say my time is
soon up. They already think they give to much time. Shampoo family will
lose status if Shampoo no marry, so Great-Grandmother now pushing
Shampoo very very hard to get Ranma.” She looked at the table again and
sighed, “Great-Grandmother say I need get rid of nuisances who stand in
way.”
Ukyo looked at Shampoo dumbfounded. ‘Why is she telling me this?’ Then
she saw a tear fall down on the table counter. Ukyo felt her heart beat
hard. Now she and this girl may be rivals, but she didn’t hate Shampoo.
Even if she wanted to, she couldn’t hate the bubbly Amazon. “Shampoo,
why are you telling me…”
“Shampoo no really love Ranma, what Shampoo really love is living here.”
Ukyo’s jaw dropped. Shampoo sat up and looked at Ukyo across the table.
“Shampoo no like Amazon village. Here I feel more worth, here I feel I
have home.” She thought a moment and continued, noticing how Ukyo’s
mouth was clamped shut, “At home, many hate Shampoo for fighting skills
and still so young. But Great-Grandmother want go home, she push Shampoo
too too much to get spouse and stay in high rank.”
It had never occurred to Ukyo that Shampoo liked living here. Then she
thought about it harder and completely understood. She herself felt the
same. Here she had people that cared for her, and here she had made a
living and friends. She had never noticed the impact this community had
on her.
Then she realized Shampoo wasn’t nearly as dense as she thought she was.
But soon she felt pity for Shampoo, knowing that Ran-Chan was the only
person Shampoo could marry that fit the standards her village put on
her. Mousse obviously cared for Shampoo, but she had beaten him before
and the only other person she could think of was Ryoga, but Ryoga was
still in love with Akane. Deep down she knew Ranma would never give into
her or Shampoo. But she pushed those thoughts away when she felt the
sorrow that came along with them.
Shampoo was looking at her funny when Ukyo came back to reality, “Ukyo,
I need spouse. I no need go back to village; I just need spouse to keep
family in high rank. I no know what do!”
“Shampoo, I have an idea,” ‘I can’t believe I’m doing this, she’s my
rival… But she doesn’t love Ranma, she’s no longer a threat!’ “ I can
pretend to be a guy,” ‘No no no no no! You cannot do this! What if you
get caught? What if Amazons hunt you for the rest of your life if this
plan gets screwed up?… If I do this she’ll stay away from Ranma.’ “And
we’ll go to your Great-Grandmother and claim that I beat you in battle
and she can leave back to your village and tell them. What do you
think?”
Shampoo looked up into her new friends eyes questioningly and only saw
truth. Tears started flowing down her cheeks, “You really do that for
Shampoo?!” Ukyo blushed and nodded. Shampoo lunged across the table and
hugged Ukyo with all her strength, almost causing Ukyo to break a few
ribs. “Thank you! Thank you too too much!”
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
One week later Ukyo was blushing severely, looking down at the official
marriage papers her and Shampoo were about to sign. She had no idea
Cologne was going to go to these extremes.
Cologne had ordered they stay in the same living quarters until she
leave. Ukyo had been dressing like a boy ever since the meeting she had
with Shampoo (not that that was out of the ordinary), and now they had
to sign the papers right before Cologne, the cities mayor and Ryoga.
The only reason Ryoga was there was because he was the only person
Shampoo and Ukyo knew they could trust and also the only person they
knew they could talk into it on such short notice. Ukyo at the moment
was rather irritated by Ryoga would had had a nosebleed since he walked
in the room they’d be signing the papers in.
Thankfully, Cologne was too happy to notice Ryoga’s state. Soon the
papers were signed and Shampoo and Ukyo were wed. As they were leaving
Shampoo winked at the mayor, who winked back in return. Ukyo saw the
exchange and raised an eyebrow at Shampoo. “I tell “husband” secret
later.” Shampoo pretended to say it playfully as to not make Cologne
suspicious. Ukyo blushed and gritted her teeth at the word husband but
smiled non-the less.
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
The next day, Cologne left to China, taking the paperwork with her.
Before leaving she informed Shampoo that she expected an heir to their
family, but that she was never going to see Shampoo again unless it was
absolutely necessary.
Once Shampoo and Ukyo returned from the airport to Ucchan’s, Ukyo
stammered, “Heir? And what was that secret you said you’d tell me
later?” She was flushed and embarrassed about the situation, and also
itching to get her bandaged off from around her chest. Cologne had been
spying and she had not a single chance to get her bandage off and now
she was starting to feel the pain from constantly wearing it. She only
took it off during her showers that were guarded by Shampoo.
“Oh!” Shampoo smiled as they both walked up stairs to the house part of
Ucchan’s. “I forgot. You no worry about heir, I no need that for some
time.” Ukyo sighed in relief. “And I wink with mayor because he know our
secret and we get divorce papers quick.” They both heard someone enter
the front door and a little “Hello? I need to speak with a girl named
Shampoo.” Shampoo looked at Ukyo, said “It here, I get.” And took off
back down stairs.
Ukyo continued walking up the stairs and swiftly made it to her bedroom.
She looked around and saw hers and Shampoo’s clothing sprawled across
her floor. She took off her shirt and unbound her self and took a big
breath of air. “Oh, that’s so much better.” She fell forward onto her
bed; she spread her arms wide apart.
It was quite surprising how fun this had been, her and Shampoo actually
had a lot in common. Staying up at night and talking to her had been
fun. Shampoo had placed her mat on the floor next to Ukyo’s that
morning, since now Shampoo was going to live with Ukyo, working as a
waitress at Ucchan’s because Cologne had sold the property of the Cat
Café. They had been sleeping with each other before as to convince the
ever-obsessive Cologne that they were seriously to be married.
As Shampoo walked back up the stairs she felt a lump in her chest. Ukyo
was the first person she had ever really been a friend with. She was
Shampoo’s first friend and Shampoo knew this warm feeling she had for
her was slowly growing to something more. This wasn’t what she had
expected to begin with. What she thought would happen was Ukyo laughing
at her, telling her, “Good luck!” But she helped her, she went through
all this and things were all good now!
She looked down at the papers she had been given and felt the lump grow.
Her hand was on Ukyo’s doorknob now and she knew that she loved Ukyo.
She opened the door and found Ukyo lying topless on her bed. Her eyes
grew wide and she froze.
Ukyo heard someone enter her room, squeaked and rolled over the side and
came up with one of Shampoo’s blouses covering her bosom. “Shampoo!” She
calmed down, “Knock next time, okay honey?” Shampoo blushed and nodded
repeatedly.
Shampoo’s face saddened and she extended the papers to Ukyo, “Paper’s
come.” Ukyo could see Shampoo’s hand slightly shaking and she looked up
into her face. ‘Oh no, she’s going to cry.’
With Shampoo’s blouse still held against her she walked up to her friend
and hugged her, “It’s all over now. You can stay here and things will be
just fine.” But that didn’t seem to help as Shampoo wrapped her arms
around Ukyo and started sniffling. Ukyo started running her hand through
Shampoo’s hair, when she thought to herself, ‘I love this girl.’ Her
heart started beating faster at the thought, ‘No, I can’t really love
her, can I?’
She pulled back from Shampoo, dropping the blouse but she didn’t care.
“Shampoo, I…I… well… umm… I…” Ukyo couldn’t say it, she was already
shocked and didn’t know what to do. Thankfully, Shampoo leaned forward
answering her unasked question.
Their lips met and both girls’ thoughts and fears were far away from
them. Both girls wrapped one another in each other’s arms as the kiss
became increasingly passionate. They pulled back for a breath and
Shampoo raised her hand to cup Ukyo’s chin, they stood there just
looking at each other for a little before they started removing the rest
of their clothes.
Both were blushing at what they were about to do and Ukyo smiled
sheepishly at Shampoo. Once they were unclothed, Ukyo pulled a giggling
Shampoo towards her and they embraced again in another passionate kiss.
Ukyo placed Shampoo on her bed and lay against her. Enjoying the
sensations Shampoo’s luscious body was making her feel. She began toying
with the Chinese girls tender breasts, softly kneading them and pinching
her nipples, making Shampoo sigh and moan in pleasure.
Shampoo soon had Ukyo on her back, not wanting her to think she wasn’t
full of surprises also. She kissed Ukyo’s forehead, then her lips, then
began nuzzling, licking and sucking at her susceptible neck while her
left hand trailed down between her breasts to play with her bellybutton.
Ukyo was gasping in rapture now. She loved the feeling of Shampoo
touching her and placed her hand on Shampoo’s shoulder blade pushing her
towards herself. She felt Shampoo make her way down and moaned feeling
lips around her hard nipples. Shampoo started suckling hard and Ukyo
started gasping, She pulled Shampoo up over her again, their breasts
squashing together and they kissed deeply.
Ukyo rolled Shampoo over and pinned her down, with no hesitation she
went straight for Shampoo’s lower lips. She thrust her tongue in and was
rewarded with a cry from Shampoo who bucked her hips forward. When Ukyo
stopped thrusting with her tongue she started gently licking Shampoo’s
nod of pleasure.
Shampoo’s body was covered in perspiration and she became more and more
tense. Ukyo could hear Shampoo softly whisper to her in Chinese, which
sounded incredibly sexy and made Ukyo become even more satisfying than
before. Ukyo placed a finger in Shampoo and she cried out Ukyo’s name as
everything around her melted and the only thing she felt or saw was
ecstasy and Ukyo’s body. Ukyo could feel Shampoo’s walls tighten and
throb against her finger. Shampoo fell backwards and nodded off.
She woke up to find Ukyo in the crook of her arm; she looked down at her
friend and lover and kissed the top of her head. Ukyo stirred slightly
but was still in a lazy sleep. Shampoo moved her way down Ukyo’s body
stealthily, spreading Ukyo open and lapping her up.
Ukyo’s eyes flew open and she felt the tongue lick and suck and she
moaned in bliss at these wonderful feelings. She began to move her hips
in an ancient rhythm. Ukyo placed her knuckle in her mouth and her lips
began to tremble. She had never felt so fulfilled before and this
feeling was only growing stronger.
Shampoo was moving her tongue as fast as she could, and she felt Ukyo
being plummeted into an earth shattering orgasm. She thrust her hips
forward, screaming Shampoo’s name as wave after wave over came her, and
sent her hurtling into Shampoo’s possession.
She awoke with Shampoo’s sleeping form over her stomach sleeping
soundlessly. Ukyo leaned her head over to the side and glanced at the
papers Shampoo had brought earlier. ‘Those can wait until later. And
anyways, the law said Shampoo needed a spouse, not a husband.’ With that
thought she placed her hands on Shampoo’s back and drifted off into a
sweet sleep.
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
On the cross-country airline flight to China Cologne laughed while
looking at the papers. “Do they really think I’m that stupid? Oh well,
the tribe asked for a spouse, and my Great-Grand Daughter now has a
spouse!” She took a sip of her soda and thought, ‘I saw the attraction
between the two of them from the start, it’s a good thing I sent the
girl to that Ukyo girl.’ She smiled, ‘I know they’ll be happy… I wonder
what they’ll do about the heir?’
THE END
