Here is the next chapter:

The gang was in the school yard after the last bell. They were at their usual bench, talking.

" Why don't you all come for a sleepover at my place this week-end. My parents are going to China with Hiroki to visit an old aunt" "They said I'm old enough to look after myself for three weeks, now that I'm 14" Yumi announced proudly.

"Yeah, that will be a great idea….now that Aelita is with us". Jeremie said, not lifting his head from his laptop. This made both him and Aelita blush.

"Ok, cool, we will talk about our sleepover tomorrow." Yumi replied.

Ulrich was so happy. Aelita was feeling lucky to have such nice friends. Odd was indeed becoming mad, thinking about a whole Pizza for him as usual.

"It's getting late guys. I need to go back home" Yumi said . she waved to her friends before making her way to the gate.

Ulrich stood up and said " Uhm…do…you…want me to walk you back home?"

Yeah…yeah of course. Yumi replied stuttering a bit.

Odd smirked at Ulrich mischievously. Ulrich just ignored him and run beside Yumi towards the gate. The half way was rather silent. They did not know what to say to each . then Yumi started

" Thanks for walking me home Ulrich"

"Anything for you, Yumi" Ulrich replied hesitantly.

Then silent came over again. Ulrich's heart started shouting to him 'Go on, tell her Ulrich, tell her you love her or you might lose her'.

Even if Ulrich wanted to admit his feeling to Yumi, he tried in vain to push the thought away from his mind and heart but he could not. Then he stopped walking and turned to Yumi who has also stopped.

" Yumi , do you mind ifikissyou? He said too quickly to be understood.

"What? Sorry I did not get you." Yumi replied innocently.

Without even replying, Ulrich leaned forward and kissed her softly on her lips. Then he said slowly and uncomfortably " Do…you…love…me?"

This time, Yumi leaned in and kissed him but before she move away, Ulrich wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close to his chest and deepening the kiss.A/n: Ulrich is taller

Ulrich sucked on her lower lip, forcing her to open her mouth. He inserted his tongue deep inside her mouth and Yumi moaned out of pleasure.

Ulrich's tongue travelled all around Yumi's mouth, sucking on her tongue . time and the world have stopped for them. They did not know for how many second, minute, hours or days it lasted. It was like an eternity to them. Yumi had her arms around his neck and one playing with his smooth hair. Then they had to break apart because of the lack of air in their lungs. They panted hard, not being able to talk.

"was that a yes Yumi"? Ulrich asked stupidly.

Yumi nodded, trying to catch some breath.

They continued their way , hand In hand , chatting happily.

Once they reached Yumi's house, they again felt into a passionate kiss before saying good-bye.
