Note: William and Yumi are seniors, while the others are juniors.

I'm going to go ahead and say that it'll take place a year after Code Lyoko Evolution.

Also; Amity is also a senior as well.

So that means that William, Yumi, and Amity are about 18 in this, and that the others are about 16/17.

I'm also using William's live-action actor, Deigo Mestanza as his face claim in this.

For Amity's face claim, I decided to choose Kristina Bazan.

Disclaimer: I do not own Code Lyoko.


01:

I sighed as I dropped onto my bed and buried my face into my pillow. Another long day at Kadic Academy, and I'm yet again in my dorm room.

Whatever. It's better than being in a house where I'm not wanted.

I have a single room; probably better that way. I'm awkward in social situations. Which makes me wonder why I'm even at this school in the first place.

Probably so that I'm not dragging them down.

I flopped over so that I was lying on my back. My phone buzzed and I looked at it to see a text message from my mom. "How was class? Your father and I wanted to talk to you, so call us when you can."

That's what you get when you're an unwanted child of a pair of celebrities.

I sighed before I dialed my mother's number. "Hello?" I asked. "Hey Amity! How's my girl doing?" my mothers chipper voice greeted.

I sighed.

"What is it mom?" I asked, staring at my ceiling. I heard my mother sigh. "Amity, your father and I are going on a trip." she said. I bolted up. "What?" I asked. "Your father...and I. We're going to be away...for Christmas." My mother said. I ran a hand through my hair.

"I...I thought that you guys were going to come and get me, and that we were going to go to Hawaii." I said. "I know honey, I thought so too. We were surprised when the director of the movie I'm currently filming insisted on sending us to Germany." Mom said.

I felt my heart drop. The one time I hoped that my parents would have wanted to spend time with me, they toss aside the plans just because of a freaking director.

"It's alright mom. There's always next time." I said, pretending to sound chipper. "Amity, I really am sorry." Mom said. I shook my head, but then I remembered that I was on the phone. "It's...it's really okay mom. You and dad go enjoy yourselves in Germany for Christmas. I'll...I'll be here." I said. "I'm sorry honey. We'll make it up to you on your birthday."

I fell silent and felt a few tears slide down my face. "...Mom, my birthday was in October." I whispered. "O-Oh yeah...it was, wasn't it?" Mom replied nervously. "...goodbye mom. I hope you and dad have a good trip." I said. "Bye honey..."

I hung up and dropped my phone onto my bed and covered my face with my hands. I felt the tears finally fall and, that was the moment when I had finally, officially realized, that my parents didn't really care too much about where I'd be for the holidays.


About an hour later, I found myself in the cafeteria. I felt like my eyes were still red from crying and I felt glad that there were barely any other students in the cafeteria to see me. I sat at an empty table and rested my cheek on the cool surface. I was content with the dull murmur of the few students.

That is until...

"Amity!"

He revealed he was in the large room as well.

I heard him walk over to the table and sit across from me. I sighed, leaving my face on the table. "What do you want, William?" I asked. "Aw, come on! Why do you have to be like that?" William asked. I picked my face off of the table and glared at him. "Look, I'm not really having the best day here. So, whatever it is that you came to bug me about, can it wait?"

"Are...what happened?" William asked, looking at me with concern. I shook my head. "Long story short? I'm stuck here during Christmas. My parents cancelled the plans we made a month ago to go on a trip by themselves." I said with a shrug. "Really?" William asked, the shock apparent on his face.

I nodded. "Yep." I shrugged. "Doesn't matter. I can always find some way to keep myself occupied." I said. William put his hand on his chin, as if he was thinking of something. "Don't you even..." I started.

"Come spend Christmas with my family!" William said. I rubbed my temples. "No." I said simply. "Why not? You'll be here alone if you don't." William said, crossing his arms. I shrugged and William sighed dramatically. "Pleeeeeeaaaaaasssssseeeeee Amity!" he wailed.

I raised an eyebrow. "Really? You're resorting to that now?" I asked. William pouted and I sighed. "Fine." I said, rubbing my temples. William pumped his fists in the air.

"What is with you right now? Aren't you acting a little bit...out of character for what you're normally like?" I asked. William shrugged. "I'm just in a good mood, that's all."


As I packed my things for the two weeks that I'd be spending with William's family, I heard a knock at my dorm's door. I opened it to see Aelita She smiled at me. "Hi Amity!" she chirped. I blinked. "Um...hi."

I let Aelita into my room. "Amity, you're going with William for the break, right?" she asked. "U-Um...how did you...?"

"I was sitting at the table behind you guys, working on some extra stuff." Aelita said. "Oh...well, yeah, I'm going with him." I said, shrugging. "Well, I figured that I'd give you this before you left!" Aelita said, holding out a box wrapped in brightly colored paper. I looked at Aelita, the surprise clear on my face. She smiled. "Come on, Amity. Don't be too surprized. Jeremie and I were your first friends after you transferred here, remember?"

I smiled fondly at the memory. They were the first people who treated me like a normal person. They, along with Ulrich, Yumi, Odd and William. They all became my first real friends.

"So I take it that this is from the two of you then?" I asked. Aelita nodded happily and I started to tear the wrapping off of the box. When I had finished, I held in my hands, was a box. I opened the box to see a silver charm bracelet, with five charms on it. A tiny guitar, a music note, a rose, a video game controller, and a book. "Yumi, Ulrich and Odd picked out some of the charms, and William helped us pay for it."

I looked at Aelita and felt tears sting my eyes. "Aelita, this..." I started. I wrapped my arms around her and she hugged me back. "...thank you..." I whispered, looking at her with a smile on my face. I held Aelita at arms' length and she smiled. "It's no problem Amity. You're our friend."
