I forgot to describe Lucy! Ok, so Lucy is just slightly taller than Aelita. She wears light blue boot cut jeans that have pink butterflies up the sides and a dark colored T-shirt with a wolf on it. Her hair is red, not glaringly red, but more of a mix of brown and red, she has deep blue eyes and a bunch of freckles on her nose and upper cheeks.

Now that's over with, on with the story!

"Come on you two, we'll be late!" Odd had finally finished wrapping the gifts, if you could call it wrapping, he had shoved the gifts in the bag and placed a piece of tissue paper lightly over it.

"We're coming!" Aelita called back, pushing herself to her feet and dragging Lucy after her. The two girls had spent the afternoon talking about the past, occasionally laughing hysterically at something they had done. Odd rolled his eyes, it had been a long afternoon as lonesome male and he was ready to get some backup.

"Odd!" Adele called, "Don't forget your cell phone." Adele threw his cell phone across the hotel room at Odd.

"What did you do to it?" He asked, not knowing if he should be touching it or not.

"Nothing! I had to keep it away from Marie and Louise!" Adele huffed, "But if you'd rather I let them get it in future-"

"No!" Odd said, cutting her off, "Thanks for saving its life."

"Hey Jeremie!" Yumi greeted him as he opened the door.

"Hi Yumi." Jeremie replied, following her into his living room.

"Anyone else here?" She asked.

"Nope, but Aelita called, her and Odd are bringing a friend." Jeremie said, looking at Yumi hopefully.

"I've heard nothing about this friend, as far as I knew their only friends were us." Yumi said, seeing Jeremie's eyes begging for information.

"Knock Knock." Ulrich said as he stepped in the door.

"Do you ever use a doorbell?" Jeremie asked him.

"Nope, heard from Odd?" Ulrich replied, surveying the room.

"Him and Aelita are bringing a friend." Yumi piped up.

"Did they give a name to this friend?" Ulrich asked, looking thoughtful.

"Umm, I think they said, Lucille, or Lucy, or Lu," Jeremie said, "Aelita was talking really fast."

"Lucy huh?" Ulrich mused, "I think Odd's told me about her."

"Really?" Yumi and Jeremie asked in unison.

---

"So you finally decide to arrive?" Yumi asked, shoving Odd playfully.

"You wouldn't believe how much Aelita and Lucy can talk." Odd replied exasperatedly.

"Hey guys," Aelita said, following Odd into the house, Lucy in tow.

"Hi Aelita," Ulrich called from his spot on the couch. "You must be Lucy."

Lucy looked sheepishly around, her freckled cheeks turning slightly pink.

"Yea, everyone, this is Lucy." Odd announced to the room in general.

"Great introduction Odd." Aelita growled jovially.

"Lucy, this is Yumi, Jeremie, and Ulrich." Aelita said, pointing to each person in turn, "And you already know Odd."

"Hard to know the way you've been talking." Odd grumbled, flopping down in an armchair.

"Hello Lucy," Jeremie said, "Sit down." He patted a spot beside him on the couch, which Lucy took. Aelita smiled and took a spot on the floor facing everyone while Yumi occupied the remaining armchair.

"What do we do now?" Aelita asked, excitement bubbling up inside her.

"I hadn't thought about that." Jeremie admitted, looking at his feet sheepishly.

"That's ok," Lucy said, "I have lots of ideas!"

I'm glad that Lucy has ideas, because right now I sure don't. Ideas are appreciated greatly, any party games or anything. I hope you like it so far, and I hope you like Lucy.
