A/N : Is this fandom even alive?, ergh, more precisely, are the Oddrich/UlrichXOdd WHATEVER-fans alive? XD
I'm... REALLY... Not a fan of UlrichXYumi, boi, don't even let me get started on the problems I have with this ship... *sigh*
ANYWAY, yes, I haven't been writing in forever, YES, I have WAYYYY older Ideas than this one (like DINOSAUR old, they're from my days in the army, lol), yet, I felt the urge to write CL in particular, I don't feel like contributing to Sonic's fandom too much at the moment, It's not in a need for saving as fandoms like Code Lyoko are lmao
(I have a strange sense of duty to help in fandoms that... Are, well, DROWNING)
I've got an interesting relationship with CL, first I watched it when I was 10, dubbed to my native language on the TV and such, was a die hard UlrichXYumi fan (weren't we all as kids? XD), then I rewatched in the English dub when I was 16, I became a UlrichXOdd shipper, and quickly ceased the watching once I learned the original language of the show was French and after the terrible exaggerated voice acting was getting on all my nerves, and now, at the age of 22.5, I'm rewatching, in FRENCH, with broken ass English auto generated subtitles, still much better than the English dub, lol, I've proceeded further than at age 16 (I'm at ep70 now), and I'm gettin' so many memories, the damn crash I had on William when I was 10 is one of these many ;-;
Design for Lyoko, obviously, let's be real fellas, we ALL imagined ourselves in Lyoko, didn't we? :3
I think Imma rate this 'M' because of swearing, MILD sexual themes (I promise there isn't actual sex happening XDD), and because X.A.N.A is a sick, twisted, perverted, sadistic THIRSTY hoe (I've made them the worst here, lol)
You've been warned :D


"Odd?-"

"-Aaa!"

The sound of a plastic tray and other various food items falling disturbed the chatter in the cafeteria, which returned mere seconds later

"You gave me a freakin' heart attack!"

The Brunet's expression unchanging since calling the short boy.

"Has... Everything been alright?"

He asked with clear concern.

"What're ya-"

"you're spacing out a lot, and you're super fidgety around me lately..."

The boy nervously shifted his gaze, afraid of whatever his best friend might say next.

"Have I done anything wrong?, you've also been avoiding me and I'm starting to worry"

The two's expressions inverted, and the Blond could only stare in confusion before the Umber orbs looked determinedly at his.

"Please talk to me, you've been devirtualizing more than usual on Lyoko"

The taller boy put a comforting hand on Odd's shoulder, but the boy quickly moved backwards, suddenly finding his Burgundy sneakers a lot more interesting.

'Welp, this was all fun while it lasted... Aw Man... I REALLY don't wanna tell him'

He sighed deeply and lifted his head, still not daring to look at Ulrich's eyes.

"I'll tell you after classes are over... Ok?"

He said in such a tiny voice, hoping it'll help him shrink so small he won't be visible or heard any longer.

"Ok"

The Brunet nodded, turning to sit at the group's table, while Odd went to Rosa to beg for another lunch.
At the boy's room dark smoke was slowly creeping out of the desk lamp.
The day passed awfully quick for Odd, who was dreading the upcoming conversation

'I know it was obvious that sooner or later he might catch me Red handed, but shit!, that's too early!'
The boy's mind yelled.
Carefully he moved his eyes to look at his best friend, in barely a second, Ulrich raised his hand.

"May I go to the bathroom?"

Suzanne turned around from the Blackboard.

"Yes, Please be quick"

Said best friend got out of the classroom, Walnut orbs secretly following him.
As he was about to walk into the bathroom, a door slammed open right into his face, hard.
Class didn't take long to end once Ulrich came back.
The bell rang, signing the end of the day.

'Oh boy'

His mind anxiously quaked.
They both packed their stuff, and started walking to their room.

'Might aswell enjoy this walk while it lasts, since it'll be the last non awkward walk I'll be walking with him, that is, if even GET to walk with him again'

The Brunet smirked, gently pulling the shorter boy's shoulder to his own shoulder, causing the him to squeak in surprise.

"You're nervous Odd, relax a little"

He said in a low voice, attempting to relax his best friend a bit.
The Blond now completely distracted by the other's closeness to him, forgot how bad the situation really is.


The taller boy opened their room's door, letting the other in before closing it after him.
Odd, still a little rosy from the walk, was staring at the nearest wall

'This crap's scarier than the digital sea!'

his mind cried.
A hand caressed his shoulder in a soothing matter, Umber orbs looking at him gently, and the Blond got about 2 shades darker, yet he started to feel his body give into the touch.

"Tell me what's been bothering you"
Ulrich talked in the same low voice as before, causing the other get goosebumps and smile nervously.

"I... Uh... It's... It's really bad Ulrich"
He confessed, a lot less scared than before.
The Brunet chuckled before extending the range his arm was gliding, from just the shoulder, to the arm, then to slightly grazing the neck.
Odd inhaled sharply.

"I'm sure it's not as bad as you make it out to be..."
He got just a tad bit closer to the other, unnoticeably.
The shorter boy giggled anxiously, he was flushed, nervous and at the same time, he felt strangely comfortable.

'Oh, I'm enjoying what I'm not supposed to, aren't I?, he'll be shocked, confused, hell, even DISGUSTED, and he'll cut me off'

The taller boy's hand was now focusing on fully caressing the other's neck, making said boy pant quietly.

"I-It's... It's"
Odd was struggling to talk from the weird combined emotions he was getting from this whole situation.
"It's really t-that bad..."
He gulped, mentally forcing himself to enjoy the touch as if it's the last.
"It's so...Com-complicated..."
Walnut orbs moved down to the floor.
"You and Y-Yumi have...-"
He fidgeted uncomfortably.
"-SOMETHING, going on... I-I don't get it, hell, NOBODY does, you a-aren't a couple... Yet... You l-like her, she likes y-you..."

The Brunet crept a little closer, still unnoticed.

"And?"
Ulrich urged him gently, smiling.

"A-and..."

The other's hand lifted to stroke his cheek, causing a shiver run down the Blond's spine.

'well, time to get stabbed in the heart... Face it, how can you say no to him when he's touching you like that?...'

As if on cue, the hand started to include the Blond waxy locks in the stroking.
Odd let out a startled moan.

'What DO I even say!? never thought about tellin' him, so I don't even know WHAT-'

"-AndIlikeyou"
He blurted quickly in the quietest voice he could, making him sound like a mouse, Ironically.

'Really?, THAT's the best I could say?'

The Brunet got noticeably closer, gently lifting the other's face, walnut orbs now looking directly at his umber ones.

"Interesting, I like you too"

He smiled mischievously, moving his thumb to ghost over Odd's lower lip, causing the boy to shudder and cease any panting and just stare.
His stare got wider as the other was leaning closer feeling the other's lips quickly on his own.

'Ulrich is kissing me, ULRICH IS KISSING ME!'

Walnut orbs closed as the boy leaned into Ulrich to stand in a more comfortable position.
A tongue intruded the Blond's mouth as the door opened.

"What..."

Odd's best friend was standing at the door, the nasty bruise on his forehead making him register what's going on slower.

"IT'S X.A.N.A!"

The real Ulrich yelled, but it was too late, they both turned to him, smiling wickedly as X.A.N.A's symbol pulsated in their irises.

"Oh Fuck"


A/N : So... Have I improved since 'True colors'? (*cough*IneedtorewriteitBADLY*cough*), I've tried foreshadowing for the first time
Was it good? (subtle and barely noticeble is what I aimed for)
Please R&R, TELL ME if the plot twist caught you unready, or the foreshadowing made you 100% sure it was coming?
Next chapter will be the same timeline, but X.A.N.A's POV, the main reason this story is very obviously in a need for an M rating XD Ulrich's POV afterwards, not sure about the timeline yet.
