A/N: Hello there once again! Chapter 2 is coming at you! :D There's a little bit of swearing in this one, so if you're super sensitive you might not want to read it, but it's really not that bad. I really enjoyed writing this one, just 'cause I fell in love with this couple after watching two very cute PVs with them. Once again, the fuffiness and Yuki mischeviousness continues! :3

Couple: GumixDell

Gumi leaned against the wall and let out a frustrated sigh.

He was doing it again.

Gumi glanced over at the door she was standing next to and willed it to open. When nothing happened, Gumi gave another exasperated sigh.

"What are you doing Gumi?"
Gumi gave a small squeak and looked down at the source of the voice. Yuki had snuck up on her while she was busy fuming. Gumi gave Yuki a large smile.

"Hey short stuff!" she exclaimed as she lightly ruffled Yuki's hair, "Shouldn't you be outside playing? You'll never grow up nice and strong if you keep lazing around the house like a turtle!"

Yuki's eyebrows rose in confusion. She never understood the similes Gumi made.

"Any who," Gumi continued, completely oblivious to Yuki's confusion, "I'm waiting for Dell to finish working so that I can invite him to the movies, but that big jerk wad hasn't come out even once in the last three hours!"

"Wow Gumi! You've been waiting here for three whole hours?" Yuki exclaimed. Yuki had a hard time waiting fifteen minutes and she really respected Gumi being able to wait three whole hours.

Gumi proudly placed her hands on her hips and gave a small smirk, "Yup! And I'm going to keep waiting here until Dell comes out of his room!" Gumi began to knock on the walls of Dell's room.

"You hear that Dell?" Gumi said raising her voice to be heard through the walls, "I can wait here for you aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaall day!"

Yuki smiled at Gumi's declaration that she could wait there all day. Yuki had no doubt that Gumi would do just that in order to get her way. But, Yuki felt bad making her wait that long, she had to do something to help her! Suddenly, a thought struck Yuki.

"Hey Gumi, why don't you just go in and force him to come out with you? If it was my boyfriend, that's what I would do!" Yuki declared as she looked up at Gumi.

"Well," Gumi said as she closed her eyes, "As much as I love spending time with him, I know how important his work is to him. I can't just be selfish and pull him away from that…as much as that absolutely sucks…Plus, Dell can get pretty testy if you interrupt him when he's concentrating on a new program." Gumi finished her explanation and once again leaned back against the wall.

When Gumi opened her eyes again, she found that she was alone.

"Huh? Where did Yuki run off too?" Gumi said as she scanned the hallway for the mysteriously disappearing young girl.

CLICK!

Gumi turned at the all too familiar sound of a door closing as she realized that Yuki had just entered into Dell's room.

"Ah! Crap!" Gumi said as she grabbed the handle and began to desperately turn it, hoping against all hope that the door hadn't locked behind Yuki. But it was locked and it wasn't coming unlocked.

With nothing to do but wait, Gumi leaned against the wall and began to play nervously with the goggles on her head. She silently hoped that Dell was in a good mood.

Yuki gave a triumphant smile as she closed the door to Dell's room. When Gumi had been explaining how she was scared to go into Dell's room, Yuki had decided that she was going to be brave and face up to Dell.

Her smile spread wider as she realized just how brave she was. She had done something a nineteen year old girl had been afraid to do and it had been easy…so far. She felt like the bravest person in the whole world!

Stopping her silent celebration, Yuki turned around to look at Dell's room. It was sparsely decorated with a random collection of dark furniture. Near the ceiling, there was a small window to allow a tiny amount of light in and a large amount of smoke from Dell's cigarettes out. But Yuki didn't really pay much attention to that, her eyes grew wide as she took in the spectacular site in Dell's room.

Right in the middle of the room stood the biggest computer Yuki had ever seen. It had three or four screens all placed at different levels. It gave off a soft humming sound as it processed all the information that the four screens were feeding it. Yuki could only see the back of the computer and already she was impressed beyond all reason.

Yuki shook her head and put her mind back on the mission. She had no time to be distracted by shiny computers, she had to find Dell and make him feel sorry!

He's probably still on his computer working, Yuki thought to herself, Well then, it's time to stop working and go on his date!

She quickly walked around the large computer and put on her best angry face to make sure that Dell felt sorry for leaving Gumi outside. As Yuki rounded the corner, her angry face quickly melted into giggles as she saw the scene before her.

Dell was asleep face down in his keyboard. The text on the screens of the computer which had been neat and orderly turned into nothing but random letter and symbols near the end. Yuki watched as Dell rolled his head in his sleep and typed out more incoherent text onto the screens.

Stifling her giggles, Yuki quickly put her angry face back on. She walked over the where Dell was sleeping and abruptly tapped him on his shoulder. She leaned back after her task was done, crossed her arms and waited for the young man to wake up.

She didn't have to wait long, as the young man slowly raised his head from the keyboard. He stared dazedly at his computer screen for a few seconds as his mind caught up with his body. As his mind finally woke up his eyes spread wide and a deep scowl appeared on his face.

"Shit!" I fell asleep again! Dammit!" he exclaimed as he began to furiously type on the keyboard.

Not happy being ignored, Yuki loudly cleared her voice. It may have been true that Dell was asleep, but she wasn't letting him off easy! Dell stopped typing for a second and looked over at where Yuki was standing. After he realized who was in his room, he quickly turned back to his typing.

"Hi Yuki," he said, his voice flat and uninterested, "What are you doing in here?"

Yuki gave an audible huff to let Dell know that she wasn't happy being mostly ignored, "I came here 'cause Gumi wants to go to the movies with you!"

At the mention of Gumi, Dell once again stopped typing. He looked extremely annoyed as he took a cigarette from the pack on his desk, lit it and stuck it in his mouth. He turned to look at Yuki, and his face said he was clearly not amused.

"Dammit," He said almost as if talking to himself, "that girl doesn't think of anyone but herself does she? She knows that I have to finish this program soon and now she's even sending in little girls to ask if I'm done in her place."

Yuki felt her blood boil. She couldn't believe it! Dell was such a meanie! Why Gumi wanted to go to the movies with him, Yuki couldn't even begin to understand.

"Fine then!" Yuki said as she turned her back to Dell to show her anger, "I'll just tell poor Gumi who's been sitting outside your room for three hours that you're not coming! And even though Gumi said that we shouldn't disturb you 'cause your busy, I'm glad I did so that I can tell you just how mean you're being to her! You…you…big jerk wad!" Yuki finished, employing the name that she had heard Gumi use earlier.

Yuki balled her hands into fists and began to stomp out of the room to show just how angry Dell had made her. She had only taken a few steps when she felt someone place a hand on her head. She looked up and saw Dell looking straight ahead with an unreadable expression on his face.

"Come on, I might as well see what that idiot is up to. I don't want her to starve waiting out there for me."
Not yet fully willing to forgive him, Yuki gave a slight nod of her head, but stuck her tongue out of the side of her mouth at him as they headed for the door.

"This isn't working…" Gumi whined as she fell to the floor.

After waiting a few minutes for Yuki to emerge from Dell's room, Gumi had become worried about the young girl's face. She eventually decided that she would pick the lock and save Yuki from her untimely doom. So far though, Gumi had been unsuccessful in her attempts.

"Man…" She continued to whine, "It's never this hard in the movies!"

Gathering up all her remaining enthusiasm, Gumi picked up her bobby pin off the ground, "Alrighty! Let's try this again!"

Just as Gumi knelt down again to attempt her daring rescue, the door abruptly opened and Gumi was face to face with a surprised Yuki. Gumi's face instantly lit up as she squeezed the life out of Yuki.

"You're alive! I thought that since you hadn't come back in so long that Dell had killed you or something!" Gumi exclaimed as she continued to hug Yuki tightly.

"What the hell do you mean, 'Dell had killed you or something'? I'm not some sort of psychotic killer"

Gumi looked up at the familiar voice and saw for the first time that Dell had emerged from the room along with Yuki. She quickly released Yuki and stood up to look Dell in the face. There was a moment of heavy silence between the two of them. Yuki nervously looked from one to the other wondering what was going to happen next.

Gumi jumped up and hugged Dell tightly, "You're alive too! I missed you so much! I know you've been busy working on your new program, but I haven't seen you in four days and it made me sad! Let's go to the movies!" Gumi rambeled everything out at once and was smiling and near tears of joy the entire time.

"Gumi! Get the hell off me!" Dell yelled as he gently removed the girl from himself. Yuki gave a grin as she saw the slight pink that had crept onto Dell's face.

"My God Gumi, I leave you alone for a little bit and this is what you do? Don't you have a life or something?" Dell asked as he continued to smoke his cigarette. Gumi gave him a glare of disproval that he pretended to not to notice.

Quickly shaking off her annoyance, Gumi gave a huge grin, "Of course I have a life! I just want to spend this bit of it going to a movie with you!"

Yuki looked up at Dell and lightly pulled on his shirt. Dell looked down at her and was greeted with another one of her "angry" faces.

Dell gave a sigh as he put out his cigarette on the bottom of his shoe, "Fine…I'll go. But it's your damn fault if I don't finish this program on time and then you'll owe me a pack of cigarettes."

Gumi squealed in excitement, completely ignoring Dell's deal and she latched on to Dell's arm.

"Hey! What the hell are you doing? I never said that you could freakin' hang all over me!" Dell said as he tried halfheartedly to escape from Gumi's grip.

"This is pay back for not seeing me for four whole days!" Gumi responded as she clung tighter.

Yuki watch the two of them go and she gave a childish giggle as she watched the occasional pink splotches creep onto Dell's face. She was beginning to see that Dell wasn't such a bad guy and she thought she might understand just a little why Gumi liked him so much.
