Ranma looked discouragingly at his mirror image.  "Yeash!  As if the firs=
t
time wasn't bad enough."   Ranma was clearly being troubled by his
memories of his first wedding.  A failed and troublesome one at that,
Ranma chided to himself as he tried on the overcoat of his tuxedo.  "Damn.
Well, I hope this time nothing 'untoward' happens."  He sighed knowing th=
e

hmmm.. i'll let that 'untoward' bit pass... it is a dream sequence..

futility of his meager prayer was gone to wishful thinking rather than a
visible sight of hope.  "Ah.  To hell with them.  If they don't want me
and Akane married then I don't give a damn!"  Ranma felt inspired as he

you could make this a little clearer, say with "then damn them".. as is, it
doesn't seem like he's dismissing everyone elses opinion as much as he's
sounding like he'll give up if it won't work out this time..

somehow mouthed those words, but he sensed feeble crying and he
immediately turned around to see who it was.

"Ranma?!"  Akane, in a ravishing yet formal wedding dress, stood teary
eyed at the door.  Ranma rushed up to her and was met by Akane's eager an=
d
encouraging hug.  "Oh, Ranma."

if he mouthed the words, how did Akane hear?

"What is it Akane?"  Ranma calmly lifted up his future wife's chin up,
while deftly and softly wiping the tears off her red cheeks.  "Why are yo=
u
crying like that?"

"Nothing."  Akane further dried the tears off with her own effort while
calming down in Ranma's embrace.  "I just heard what you said, and
that..."  Ranma just trussed his fingers through Akane's finely decorated
hair and beamed a confident loving smile back to her.

"I meant every word."  Both were locked in each other's charming and
heartwarming stare.  Ranma leaned forward and tilted his head to one side.
Akane just closed her eyes in breathless anticipation, which Ranma soon
followed with a passionate and unending kiss.  It was too good to be true=
,
Ranma thought.

His suspicion was right.  Everything went black for him.  Akane's lips
drifted away like a fluttering cloud and soon Ranma's own senses where

that is beautifully done, although the second sentence in it "Everything
went black for him." is a little awkward.. unfortunately i believe it's the
only thing that captures the idea, in several ways. the first, that of his
dream ending, could be replaced and would be if it wasn't for the second
connnotation (i picked it up.. although imight just be looking to far into
things), that he was losing everything that really mattered to him...

awakening to some new, but familiar surroundings.  He blinked in the dim
darkness of the room, wiped the sleepiness from his half asleep eyes, and
tried to figure out what had just happened.

"My room?  No.  This is not my room."  Ranma looked at the obvious clean
and organized desk and bookshelf and immediately got to that conclusion.
"Huh?"  Across his chest was a lifeless limb.  "Akane?"  Ranma finally
looked to one side of the bed and saw his fianc=E9e, asleep with him on t=
he
bed.  But somehow the usually panic and fear didn't set in for Ranma.

he only panics when she's awake :)   ...with good cause...

He just lifted the blanket up to Akane's shoulders, and clearly she
appreciated it by stirring a bit to a more comfortable position.  Her arm
was still on him, Ranma didn't care though.  Somehow this time, he won't
be expecting a hammer sticking our on one end.  Ranma was curious, though.
There seemed to be a piece of paper upon her hand.  Inquisitively, Ranma
tried to read what it had to reveal, even if on the pale moonlight allowe=
d
him to see Akane's handwriting.

say what? oh.. "if only" i think that's what you mean to say.. might want to
replace 'read' with something else (scanned, checked.. not good examples
but..) because read would be much better used in place of 'see' .. maybe
'checked to see what it had to reveal' .. it's your call.. as if it wasn't :)

"I won again.  See you in the morning."  Ranma blinked, looked at Akane
and her beaming smiling sleepy face, and stared back at the piece of
paper.  Ranma smiled, realizing and recalling the silly 'no-sleeping'
contest they started last night. 'Or was it two nights ago?' Ranma asked
himself honestly.  "PS. In case I forget, I love you"  Ranma folded the
letter and placed it under his pillow.  He looked at Akane, the moonlight
softly illuminating her crimson face, and slowly yet meaningfully kissed
her on the forehead before going to sleep again.  He hoped he could dream
that dream again.  And he did.
