Code Lyoko Road Trip Chapter Two:
Wow. I almost forgot about this story. But thanks to the reviews and favorites I didn't. Anyways I also think the fist chapter of my story sucks, so maybe chapter two will be better. So let me know what you think.
Yumi's P.O.V. (Day 1)
"What do you want to talk about Princess?
"Jeremy."
"What did the boy genius do now?" I laughed as we entered the showers.
"Nothing. And that's the problem. One day I think he likes me and the next I'm not so sure. Odd said to cut him some slack and that he'll come around."
"For once Odd's right. Jeremy is smart when it comes to computers but no that much when it comes to girls. Maybe you should make the first move."
"I don't know how. I am clueless about relationships. Yumi, I want what you and Ulrich have." The pinkette sighed.
"Hard work Aelita. You know getting together with Ulrich wasn't a stroll in the park. Maybe this trip will bring you two together."
"Hopefully."
Leaving the showers I jumped when I felt two arms wrap around my waist. "Hey Ulrich."
"Hey Yumes, Aelita."
"Hi Ulrich."
"What's wrong Lita?" Ulrich asked concerned.
"Nothing just thinking." She shrugged as we entered the cafeteria.
"Oh Ulrich Dear!"
Ulrich and I groaned in unison when we heard the girly shriek.
"Go away Sissi. Not today." The brunette complained as he buried his face in my hair.
"You don't have to show off because she's around Ulrich Dear."
"No one is showing off Sissi." I rolled my eyes.
"And no one was talking to you Ishiyama."
"Don't talk to my girlfriend like that." Ulrich defended.
"Your what?"
"Ooops. Did we forget to tell her?" I laughed as me and Ulrich left the shocked girl and headed for our table.
We walked over and saw that Jeremy, Odd, and Aelita were already seated.
"We have to hurry." Jeremy whispered quickly.
"Why?" Odd asked curiously.
"We only have two weeks until X.A.N.A.'s peak of power. Two weeks isn't long when we might have to travel around the whole country of France It should be fairly safe with Aelita and I doing all the computer work."
"What's the first clue Jer?" Aelita asked her crush.
"The most live able city in Europe. Nantes, fair enough. I highly doubt that the rest of the clues will be so easy."
"Can we at least have breakfast before we leave?" Odd whined.
"Yes we can have breakfast before we leave Odd." Jeremy rolled his eyes. "Come on you two let's go get in line."
"Yumi I really need to talk to you." Aelita said quickly as the boys left.
"Is this about Jeremy again?"
"No." She blushed. "It's about you."
"Me?"
"Yes you. I really don't want to do this but I have to. Jeremy told me to honestly ask you if you and Ulrich's relationship will get in the way of this trip."
"Excuse me?" I asked shocked.
"Yumi don't take this the wrong way. Jeremy's just looking out for the team. You know how your fights with him distract everyone else." Aelita explained.
I huffed leaning against my chair agitated and embarrassed. "Are they asking Ulrich this too?"
"No. Ulrich would never even consider the question. That's why we had to ask you since your more level headed when it comes to your relationship with Ulrich."
"No. My relationship with Ulrich will not get in the way of this trip." I hissed.
"Do I have your word?" Aelita questioned looking me in the eye.
"Yes, you have my word Aelita. I know how to control myself."
"With that temper?" The pinkette laughed.
"I could seriously hurt you, you know?"
"Yeah, but you won't." She shrugged as the boys we joined the table.
"Here Yumi."
"Thank you Ulrich." I gave a small smile before taking my breakfast from Ulrich and glaring at Aelita.
"Here's the plan." Jeremy started. "We'll drive to Nantes get what we need and stay the night. Then we'll go from there."
"Whatever." Odd said through a mouth full of food.
"Sure." Ulrich agreed.
"Yeah." I shrugged.
"Okay. How about I do a budget plan so we don't blow all the money at one time?" Aelita suggested.
"Good idea." Jeremy congratulated.
"Ugh why Aelita? This trip is supposed to be fun." Odd groaned.
"Odd this trip is not for fun. It's to save the world." Jeremy lectured.
"You bore me." Odd said simply before going back to his food.
The rest of stifled a laugh at Odd's comments.
"Not funny." Jeremy said indignantly feeling offended.
"It's okay Jeremy." Aelita comforted patting his hand.
"Are we ready to go?" Jeremy asked still offended.
We all agreed standing up.
"Odd." Ulrich called.
"Yeah Ulrich?"
"No singing in my car."
"But Ulrich. That's the best part about a road trip. The road trip songs."
"No singing."
"Thank you for establishing that now Ulrich." Aelita grinned as we all shivered at Odd's singing.
"I call shot gun." Odd yelled as we packed our bags in the trunk.
"No you don't." I replied pulling the taller boy by his collar. "You sit in the back."
"But… I don't want to sit in the back with the lovebirds though."
I watched as Jeremy and Aelita's faces lit up.
"Too bad." Shaking my head I pointed to the backseat.
"You just want to sit next to Ulrich is all." Odd grumbled under his breath.
"You want to say that louder Della Robbia?" I threatened.
He may be taller than me but I could still take him.
"Nope Yumi." He smiled getting the backseat with the 'lovebirds'.
"I owe you one for saving me from sitting with Odd." Ulrich smiled as I sat beside him.
"Hey, I heard that!"
"You were supposed to Odd." Ulrich snickered.
"I am just offended." Odd pouted crossing his arms across his chest.
I laughed before giving Ulrich a kiss.
"Can you two at least wait until we get to a hotel and you can get a room?" Odd requested from the back causing the other two to laugh.
"He recovered fast." I pulled away blushing.
"Tell me about it." Ulrich muttered as he pulled out the parking lot.
"How far away are we from Nantes?" Odd asked.
"Two hundred and twelve miles."
"How long is that exactly Jeremy? I mean in regular language?"
"About seven hours." (I really don't know.)
"That's a long time though."
"I thought you liked road trips though Odd." I asked turning to face the grown up little boy.
"I do, but it's still a long time. And no singing." Odd sighed.
"You could always go to sleep." I suggested as I placed my sunglasses on my face.
"Sleep is boring though."
"Everything is boring to you Odd." Ulrich commented.
"It really is." Aelita agreed. "How about you draw a picture? You are an artist."
"I forgot my paper in my suitcase. And that's in the trunk." Odd sighed again as he looked out the window. "How about a game then?"
"We are not playing truth or dare." Jeremy said quickly.
"Why not?"
"You don't know how to control your self that's why." Ulrich explained.
"Sleep is still a good option." I tried again.
"You guys are no fun. I'll just text Sam."
"Good idea." I said secretly glad that he would just shut up.
I leaned against the window as I tried to sleep.
"Okay once we're in Nantes for a while Franz should be able to pick up on our location and find out where to send us next."
"But Jeremy, won't X.A.N.A. also be able to do the same thing then?" I asked.
"No X.A.N.A. will be searching this whole continent where as Franz will know just where to find us at."
"Aw, smart." Odd nodded. "So there is basically no danger in this road trip?"
"Not at all." Jeremy confirmed. "It's just the big fight when X.A.N.A. reaches his peak in two weeks. That's where it gets dangerous. But once we have Franz it'll be so much easier. We take down X.A.N.A. and then we shut him down for good."
We all quietly took this in.
"Wait Odd?" Ulrich asked suddenly.
"Yeah Buddy?"
"Where's Kiwi?"
"With Emily."
"Odd."
"Yes?"
"Emily does not like you."
We all quietly giggled at the stated fact.
"Yes she does.'
"No she doesn't. The last time you spoke to her she slapped you. Did you tell her to watch Kiwi?"
"I sent her a text."
"And did she respond?"
"Well, no. I thought that meant an automatic okay." He admitted sheepishly.
"Odd."
"Yes?"
"Emily's allergic to dogs."
"No way." Odd shrieked before grabbing his iPhone.
"And how do you know that?" I asked.
"That's why she threatened to tell Delmas about Kiwi. Why? Jealous?" He smirked.
"No." I huffed blushing.
"She's not answering." Odd whined.
"I think it's because she has caller ID." Jeremy replied.
"Very funny. But the well being of Kiwi depends on her."
"Stop being dramatic and text her from my phone." Ulrich ordered throwing his BlackBerry at Odd.
"Okay." Odd agreed catching the phone.
"Oh Odd." I just shook my head at the purple clad boy.
"What did Emily say Odd?" Aelita asked.
"She said that she'll tell Theo to take care of Kiwi in his dorm. Whew. That was a close one." The eccentric boy laughed. "Hey Ulrich?"
"Don't you dare you say that you are hungry." Ulrich answered.
"But I am."
"We just ate an hour ago." Jeremy reminded him.
"SO? I'm hungry right now though." He pouted kicking Ulrich's seat.
"Kick my seat again Odd and I will break your leg." Ulrich warned.
"I'm bored, hungry, and worried about Kiwi. And there is still no singing."
"Odd."
"Yes Ulrich?"
"Shut up."
"Okay." He sighed.
I pulled down the mirror because the sun was shining in my face and was surprised at what I saw.
"Ulrich look."
Ulrich looked into the mirror and looked in the backseat.
"The menace finally went to sleep."
"That and look at the lovebirds."
I turned and saw how Aelita was laying on Jeremy's shoulder and Jeremy had his arm around her.
"Maybe they'll finally get together."
"Maybe." I agreed turning back around.
I grabbed Ulrich's free hand across the console before falling asleep.
A couple of hours later:
"Come on Yumi wake up."
"What?" I groaned sitting straight up.
"We're here." Ulrich smiled from standing on my side of the car. I turned to see the others at the trunk. "Already?"
"Already." He confirmed grabbing my hand.
"What time is it?"
"Three. There isn't a time difference."
"Aw." I nodded as I dropped Ulrich's hand to grab my suitcase.
"Will you lovebirds come on?" Odd yelled from the entrance of the hotel.
"I'll kill him one of these days." Ulrich muttered.
"You and me both." I agreed as we made our way to the hotel.
"You guys! They have an all you can eat buffet!" Odd told us as he jumped up and down like a kid in the candy store.
"That's great for you isn't?" Ulrich answered.
"It is. Now check in so we can eat."
"How many rooms do we need?" Ulrich asked us.
We all quickly turned and looked at one another.
"Let me rephrase that? Who's sharing with who?" Ulrich tried again.
I wanted to say I was sharing with Ulrich since we did it plenty of times of Kadic but I didn't know if he wanted that and I didn't want to embarrass myself.
"How many beds are there?" Odd asked.
"One. You know since vacation time they're out of twins."
"Oh." Jeremy answered.
"I'm sharing with Yumi." Ulrich announced looking at me blushing.
"Okay." I agreed blushing myself.
"Okay so how about Jeremy and Aelita you share to keep the tradition alive?" Odd suggested.
"I don't think that's such a good idea. How about Odd you and I share a room and one of us takes the floor?" Jeremy requested blushing madly.
"Fine." Aelita snapped apparently hurt.
"Okay then." Ulrich shrugged before going to the counter. "We're on the sixth floor."
We all nodded as we climbed into the elevator in a tense silence.
"Is something wrong Aelita?" Jeremy tried.
"No." Aelita said simply as she crossed her arms.
"Don't let your relationship with Jeremy get in the way of the trip." I whispered teasingly in Aelita's ear.
She glared at me before turning back to the opening doors.
"Let's go out our stuff down and go get something to eat." Odd planned out.
Ulrich gave a key to Aelita and one to Jeremy, before we entered our room.
"I'm tired." Ulrich said out loud before falling on the bed.
"This is a huge bed." I commented.
"I know."
I climbed onto the bed and laid beside Ulrich. I smiled when Ulrich pulled my closer to him.
"You talk in your sleep." Ulrich said randomly.
"Wait. How many times have you been around me when I'm sleeping, and you're just now hearing it?"
"I've never been awake while you were sleeping long enough to hear it." He shrugged.
"And?"
"And what?"
"And what did I say Ulrich?"
"My name a couple of times."
I felt a hot blush take over my face. I thanked God that Odd wasn't awake to hear that.
"And that you love me." Ulrich continued laughing.
"It's not funny Ulrich."
"It's okay Yumes I love you too."
"You better."
Our conversation got interrupted by a knock on the door.
"What?" Ulrich yelled.
"We're going to meet Odd downstairs to eat." Jeremy called back.
"We should go too." I told him sitting up.
He swiftly pulled me back down with him before connecting our lips.
"Are you two coming or not?" Jeremy interrupted again.
"We're coming." Ulrich yelled back as we stood up. "This is going to be a long road trip."
