with the thought of ° idiot !! ° past him.
The front door of the ski hut opened and the whole family stormed back into the warm. Only one person was carried and that was Uncle Loui, who had gone overboard with skiing and now wore a cast around his left foot. Aunt Tete scolded him. "That you always want to show it to everyone, you idiot!" "But I only do that to impress you honey, hehe!" he laughed and kissed his wife. "It's disgusting!" Ranma grumbled and hung up his wet ski gear. He grabbed one of the folded blankets and sat on the sofa in front of the fireplace. Everyone did the same.Fifi wanted to go under the covers to Ranma's fear, but before that, to her displeasure, was caught by Grandpa Arthur and pushed between Grandma Louise and him. Akane, who was the last to come in, couldn't find a blanket and the only free seat was next to Ranma. More or less reluctantly, she sat down next to Ranma, who more or less reluctantly opened the covers for her and jerked something to the side.
Ranma couldn't sleep all night. He was constantly rolling from side to side, staring holes at the ceiling, and hitting his pillow over his head. He couldn't think of anything to give Akane. And even if he had an idea, how was he going to find something in this deserted area? ° This is the last dump ... I'll never find anything for Akane here ... No business .. nothing .. Damn it. ° He was annoyed that he hadn't taken care of a present sooner. Why was it so difficult to find a present for a girl?° I have to ask her again tomorrow, I have no other choice .. ° he thought defiantly and fell into a restless sleep.
The next morning a problem was raised again at breakfast. There was no Christmas tree in the ski hut. "But honey, why didn't you take our tree with you?" asked great-grandma Ottilie Soun shakily, while she refilled her now empty flask with new sake. "Quite simply Grandma! It didn't fit in the taxis. So who cares about a tree?" Soun asked and looked around. Grandpa Arthur answered. “I do it voluntarily.” No one answered, everyone looked down. Everyone knew Grandpa Arthur's fondness for dry, bare fir trees. In addition, he would most likely never find his way back. "Uh ... Akane, Ranma! You will take on this task, will you ?!" Soun smiled at the two of them without hiding his pleading in his eyes. "Yeah ..." both sighed at the same time. Akane made an annoyed look on her face, but inside she felt, to her alarm, a small feeling of happiness that grew bigger and bigger."But I could go with little Akane if Ranma didn't like it!" croaked Happosai and immediately jumped with the cry "Come here little Akane!" towards Akane's bosom. There was a bang and Happosai lay head down under Ranma's foot on the floor. "Get ready, Akane! We'll leave in a moment, the earlier we go the better!" Ranma grumbled, let go of Happosai, which let out a soft crack, and went into his room.
Akane rummaged through her entire suitcase in her room, looking everywhere. Under the bed, in the closet, in the drawers and all over the hut. But she couldn't find her hat. “Anyway, I'll just go without it!” She was about to leave when she saw that it was starting to snow and storm outside. "Great!" she grumbled. "Maybe Ranma happened to have my hat?" she wondered softly. She walked down the hall to Ranma's room and stopped in front of the door. Her heart was pounding. She shook her head. ° Pull yourself together !! ° She knocked and after hearing someone come in, she entered.Ranma was already fully dressed in his room and only tied his scarf on. "Hey Akane, do you want to go out without a hat on?" he asked her. "No, of course not .. um did you see my hat by chance?" "Hm. Is that a pink one?" Ranma asked thoughtfully. "Yes!?" said Akane. "Such a pink one, with a ball on top?" asked he. "Yes!?" Akane protested again. "No, I didn't see them." Ranma grinned and buttoned his jacket. "You idiot! Then why are you talking about the bush so long? !!" Akane scolded. But Ranma only replied, "Because it's so much fun to tease you, Akane!" and he laughed. "And what do I do now? It's storming outside if you haven't noticed yet ?!" Akane growled and pointed to the window - her hand was already loosely on the handle of her hammer-. "No problem!" said Ranma, rummaging around in his suitcase and after a short time put a black woolen hat on Akane's head. "It should go, right?" he smiled, Akane just looked at him astonished and brought a barely audible "thank you" from his lips."Come on now, we're going!" said Ranma and took her by the hand and pulled her out in front of the hut in the freezing cold. It was storming so hard that you could barely see more than five meters. Akane was about to loosen her grip on Ranma's hand when he squeezed her a little tighter and pulled her closer to him. “So we don't lose each other.” He said looking at her, Akane having the feeling that he had seen a little red sheen on Ranma's cheeks. They went off and did not notice how a storm was slowly brewing in the sky.

I hope I can get the next part out before Christmas and I hope you enjoyed this part.
