"I'm a Fool to Love You"
      by skeezy5

=======================

Ranma 1 / 2 etc. all belong to Rumiko Takahashi...

=======================

To be read while listening to "I'm a Fool to Love You".  
Preferrably the rendition by Billy Holiday.

=======================

[We see Akane sitting at her desk, crying.]

I'm a fool to want you,
I'm a fool to want you,
To want a love that can't be true,
A love that's there for others too.

[We see all of the girls (and guys) who are after Ranma.]

I'm a fool to hold you,
Such a fool to hold you,
To seek a kiss not mine alone,
To share a kiss the devil has known.

[Various cuts of Ranma kissing Mikado, Shampoo, and Kuno.]

Time and time again,
I said I'd leave you,
Time and time again,
I went away.

[Various cuts of Akane saying that she and Ranma are through.]

But then would come the time,
When I would need you,
And once again, these word's I'll have to say,
I'm a fool to love you.

[We see Ranma coming in at the nick of time during the Dojo Destroyer
fight, but then, there is the ensuing confusion involving the Instant
Nannichuan and the alleged kiss with Shampoo.]

Pity me, I need you,
I know its wrong, it must be wrong,
But right or wrong, I can't get along,
Without you.

[We see the scene near the end of the Hiryuu Shouten Ha story, when 
Ranma believes his cure to be lost and is preparing to leave.  Akane
shows up and tells him that she's going with him.]

I can't get along without you.

[We see Akane once again sitting at her desk, crying.]

[Author's Notes]

Mmm...  Read one too many songfics lately and decided to do one myself.
Unfortunately for y'all, it probably won't be the last.
