Aelita's P.O.V.

I walked into the game room and something felt different. Yumi and Ulrich were sitting on the couch and I knew I was intruding on a personal moment but I couldn't pull myself away.

Yumi was leaned back against the couch with her eyes closed as Ulrich touched her face. His finger traced her lips and cheeks. After a while when he stopped tracing he placed his palm against her face and she leaned into it and opened her eyes.

Yumi then went and placed herself in Ulrich's lap. Ulrich supported her by placing one hand on her back and one on her hip. She then laid her head against Ulrich's chest, more specifically his heart. This wasn't the Yumi and Ulrich we saw day to day. This was Yumi and Ulrich when they thought they were in private. They were so intimate and passionate. Then Yumi leaned up from Ulrich and said "Ulrich are hearts...They're so in tune." They way she said it stunned me. Like it was something she knew yet it still amazed her.

"I know Yumes." Ulrich responded while stroking her hair. Yumi then took Ulrich's hand and placed it on her heart while she kept her on Ulrich's heart.

They both let out a sigh at the same time. I stood and just watched them. I prayed that they wouldn't look up and see me. Yumi then shifted as she moved so she was straddling him and wrapped her arms around his neck and laid her head against his shoulder. Ulrich pulled her to him by the waist. They looked so happy and content. They're never this affectionate in public, but here it looked so easy for them now.

"Yumi." Ulrich said softly.

I saw Yumi leaned up and I could see her brown eyes. And at that moment Yumi didn't look so guarded or tough.

"I love you."

"I love you too Ulrich." Her lips formed into a loving smile.

Ulrich then went and kissed her cheek.
