Disclaimer: I don't own Code Lyoko. I wish I did, so I'd have access to all the episodes in english, but I guess I'll just have to learn French. LOL.
A/N I never saw any episodes after the ones aired on Cartoon Network, and have heard that Milly ended up with Yumi's little brother Hiroki, but being limited to the first two or three seasons, this is what I'm going with. Besides the point is what I, the fan wanted to see, so just pretend they broke up. Or that it takes place before Hiroki joined Kadic.
Chapter 1
Milly Likes a Different Boy
Milly's POV
3:00. Normally I'd be roaming around with Tamia, looking for a big story for the school paper. I sighed and walked to a bench in the main courtyard. With Tamia gone with her family, I really don't have anything to do. Its hard enough finding a story, but there was no point in trying without my friend there to document it for later. It's times like these I wish I was like Yumi or Aelita. Times I wish I had a life, a boyfriend.
I let my head hang back and close my eyes. Its easier at least. I used to make myself miserable thinking about Ulric all the time. At least I gave up that stupid dream. I sighed again. He was too nice. He had never been mean or spiteful toward me for trying to ask him to dances and stuff. I just finally realized he was Yumi's. I feel a familiar itch crawling up my panties, into my vagina and grimace. The only problem with giving up on Ulric, is that I don't have anyone else to think about. Especially since none of the boys are even interested in me.
I want a boyfriend but more than that I just want to have some fun. Not very lady like, I know but there it is.
Odd's POV
Again with the rejection? It wouldn't bother me so much if she just said no, but it seems like every girl in school likes to hit me. I'd prefer they hit on me, but I'm too much of a lady's man. I tell my friends I know what they want, but it seems like they always just get mad at me for talking to other girls. I know it doesn't help that I'm talking to said other girls asking them on dates, but what I do when I'm not around one girl shouldn't be her problem.
My cheek burned where she had slapped me, and I had learned well enough by now to just stay on the ground while they screem and let them go away. I wonder if maybe it'd be better to be gay? People always make fun of my choice of colors being gay, could it really be that bad? I listen to the girl screaming at me but really ignore what she's saying. I try to picture myself with the only boy I'm close enough to, Ulric, and shiver at the idea. I might be reduced to that option in love, but I won't do it. My hand and I get along just fine.
Finally the girl storms off and I slowly climb to my feet, I hear Ulric in the distence laughing at me with the others, but I don't care. At least my relationships are clear cut and dried. Not like his on and off fog between him and Yumi. It amuses me to no end that the only people not clear on their relationship is them. Even when Aelita was stuck in the computer and confused about what love and other feelings where, she knew they were in love.
I had just managed to get my legs under me when a shadow crossed my path and stopped. Not another girl mad at me, I'm seriously starting to worry about my jaw from all the times they smacked me. I turned and followed the shadow to its owner. Milly. It wasn't that I didn't find Milly attractive in her own way, but some how I had never approached her. She reached out a hand and smiled.
"Hey Odd! Let me help you up." I took her hand and felt a shiver pass over her. She blushed slightly. "I was wondering if we could take a walk. I want to talk to you." Her voice seemed tentative almost nervous as she said this.
There is definately something different about her today. I never got the impression she trusted me enough to come to with her problems. I do have a soft spot for her though. I nod my head trying to hide the concern I feel from showing on my face. She smiles again and I know I've failed. "Is something wrong Milly?"
She shakes her head and starts walking. "I just don't want to talk in front of every one." A slight blush streaks her cheeks and she finishes her thought. "Sissy has a bad habit of showing up when I want to talk, and making me do something embarrassing."
I couldn't arguee that. I still remember when Sissy made fun of her crush on Ulric before the dance. I've never considered hitting a girl like I did when I had to watch Milly run off in tears because Ulric turned her down. I was just happy that XANA had forced a return to the past so she could get to hear him say yes. It's strange actually, I've always felt protective of Milly and I know that my feelings might stem from something less than honorable, but some how I just don't think I could do that to her.
Milly's POV
I know that all the othe girls at school don't really like Odd anymore, in fact they warn other girls to stay away but there is something about the way he's always treated me that I think he might treat me different. I smile. "You do know why the girls all get mad at you right?"
He looks at me and gives me a crooked grin that nearly makes my heart melt. "They can't stand how much charm I have with all the ladies." I don't doubt he believes it either, but I shake my head. "A girl wants a boy thats hers and only hers, we don't want to share a boy with someone else."
His face becomes clouded over with thought as he accepts this and tries to process it against his beliefs. He finally speaks after a moment. "But I don't want to feel like someone else owns me. I'm free and when I'm not around one person I want to be around someone else. It doesn't mean I want to be involved with them." I shake my head again, mildly frustrated with just how dense he can be.
"The problem is that you flirt with them and act like you do want to be involved with them. and they think that you want to be with them. So they get mad because they think their just another girl in a long line of girls."
He processed this than became serious. "Is this wht you wanted to talk to me about?" He looked slightly uncomfortable as he looked at the trees. We had walked into the woods while we talked and he seemed to be worried about something. I shook my head.
"That was only part of it. I wanted to give you good news though. I finally got over my crush on Ulric. It's not that I don't like him any more as much as I've accepted he doesn't like me." I tried not to let the still slightly raw disappointment show in my voice and failed. He stopped and slowly, uncertainly took me in a hug as a tear begain to course its way down my cheek. He gently rubbed my back and started trying to comfort me.
Up close I was surprised that he smelled slightly like flowers. I pulled back and wiped my eyes on my sleeve. I continued. "But I do have a new crush, its not as strong as the old one, but it makes me feel better just thinking about him." He hadn't let go of me yet not sure if I was feeling better yet, I smiled a radient smile and leaned in.
"You..." My voice trailed off and I caught him by surprise with my kiss. I opened my mouth slightly and ran my tongue along his bottom lip asking for entrence. Still in surprise he offered no resistence his mouth opening, and suddenly our tongues were mixing it up, tangling and untangling darting into each others mouths.
Slowly he regained his sense's and broke the kiss, ever so gently. Showing once again how he cared for me, trying not to hurt my feelings. He hesitantly spoke still slightly confused as to what to think about the situation. "Mi-Milly?" He tried to regain some of his composure, then tried to speek again. "Milly, you know I care for you right?"
I nodded happily. He continued ever so carefully. "I don't want you to get upset..." My heart started to sink. "But I need to think about this, I never thought about you this way and I couldn't live with myself if I did go out with you and hurt your feelings." He blushed slightly, and continued. "I'm not saying no, just give me a day to think about it alright?"
Not saying no? Welll that was better than I had really hoped. I nodded and jumped as his cell phone rang. He hesitantly reached for it and glanced at the screen. He looked agrivated by whatever he saw on the little screen and looked up at me. "I have to go right now, but I promise I'll think about it and get back to you right away."
Odd's POV
I turned and ran off toward the school. Milly was right near the woods enterance so I pulled out my phone and called Ulric.
"Odd? Where'd you go? We saw you one minute getting hit from Michelle than when we looked again you were gone."
"Milly wanted to talk to me in private for a minute, now she's right near the woods entrence. You guys will have to use the gym one."
Ulric gave a mammoth shout as he presumably pawned some XANA monster at the school. "That's the way that Jeremie and Aelita went, but me and Yumi are holding off the monsters here. You'll have to go." With that the phone went dead. He knew Ulric had probably hung up on him. He wasn't really worried about his friend's safety. Ulric and Yumi were capable of holding their own. He rushed through the gate at the front of the school and headed straight for the gym.
