Just a short and sweet oneshot I thought of.

"Ulrich?" A soft voiced caused Ulrich Stern to raise his head from the biology homework he was currently working on. "Yeah?" He questioned. Emily smiled a little, and started toward him.

"I don't quite get Section B, and Jim told me you'd help me." Ulrich sat up a little straighter.

"Section B, don't worry, that part's a piece of-Ah!" Emily, who had been leaning over the desk, suddenly slipped and fell into his lap. Thrown of balance, Ulrich grabbed her hand and was pulled towards her face.

"You okay?", he murmured, "That was some fall-"

"Ulrich!" Yumi was standing in the doorway, looking shocked. Ulrich quickly dropped the prone girl. "No!" He shouted. "I can explain!" Yumi shot him a steely look. "I don't want to hear it!"

******Three Days Later*******

4:30 PM "Yumi, pick up!" Ulrich jerked his knee up and down impatiently, cradling his phone to his ear.

"Hello, this is Yumi Ishiyami, I can't get to the phone right now, please leave a message."

"Ugh!" Ulrich tossed his cell at the wall and slumped against his bed. Damn it. Why won't she answer the phone? But a grim part inside of him already knew why. Yumi was hurt, and, being Yumi, avoiding him.

5:00 PM

"Jesus, Yumi, I need to talk to you! Emily slipped and fell into my lap! Nothing happened!"

Ulrich hung up after leaving what felt like the millionth message. If I could just get her to talk to me, I know I could smooth this over... Suddenly it hit him. A grin spread over Ulrich's face as he exited the dorm room.

5:26 PM

Ulrich ran, slightly out of breath, to the Ishiyami's door. However, before he could knock or even ring the bell, the door swung open, almost causing him to fall back.

"I don't want to talk to you!" Yumi nearly shouted at him. Despite her anger at him, Ulrich grinned. "But you opened the door, didn't you." Ulrich thought he saw a faint blush go over the hollow of Yumi's throat.

"I only answered so we could get this over with and you can leave!" Ignoring her outburst, Ulrich began his explanation. "Yumi, nothing happened between me and Emily. She fell on me!" Yumi scowled. "Oh yeah? Looked more like she fell for you." Ulrich groaned. "Don't be like that! The only person I have eyes for is you! I love you Yumi, don't you get that?" Yumi looked taken aback. "Yeah, well I love you too!" She yelled, then promptly slammed the door in his face. Feeling incredibly nonplussed, Ulrich sat on the front steps and waited.

5:42 PM

"Hey," Yumi said softly, sitting down beside him on the concrete stairs. "Why are you still here?" Ulrich ran a hand through his hair. "Because I need to make things right." Yumi was quite for a while. "And you love me?" He smiled a little. "Yeah. And I love you.
