I'm soooo sorry for the late update. I've been busy writing that I had no idea I forgot to update my Fanfiction. Anyways, here's Chapter 10!

Warning: There's a really bad word in this chapter.


Chapter 10

As we entered the cafeteria, I noticed Odd was running as quickly as he could to get to the line before anyone else. "He really likes food, doesn't he?" I said out loud.

"You don't know the half of it," laughed Luna.

As I walked to the line of children waiting to get their lunch, I noticed Odd had three trays of food. He beckoned me to him. I responded and walked over. "Umm, I got your food for you."

Jeremy followed. I sat down next to Odd, he gave me my tray. "Wow, thanks, Odd. I know you like food, sooooo I'll give you my meatballs and gravy."

He looked at the meatballs and gravy as I dumped them onto his plate. He then looked at me then the plate and repeated and then started to tear up and then hugged me. "Blaze, you're the best! Thank you for helping a starving child!" he sniffled. I pulled him in for a man hug, or less than one second tap on the back with both hands.

As Odd cried tears of joy on my shoulder, Jeremy was on his laptop, and he looked around the screen, seeing my predicament. He rolled his eyes and continued typing away on his laptop.

Luna, Aelita, and a new kid - I knew he was a new kid, because he had the shy and lost look in his eyes and trying to find a place to sit – began walking down the aisle. I look around and notice that there are no new seats for him so I work up the courage to invite him over. "Hey! New kid! Wanna sit with us?" He walked over and sat down next to me and I said, "Hi, what's your name?"

He opened his mouth, and then said, "I'm Chase."

I responded saying, "Nice to meet you, Chase. I'm Blaze. I'm from America. Where are you from?"

He then said, "Nice to meet you too, Blaze. I'm from Brazil."

I then responded positively, "Awesome! You're gonna like it here." I turned to Jeremy, who was looking at Chase and I. I winked at him - not awkwardly, but like a 'he should join our group' wink.

Jeremy pushed up his glasses and nodded, and the typing on his laptop continued. Luna and Aelita walked over to our table and sat down and began to eat their food. Aelita rested her head on Jeremy's shoulder, watching him work. Odd was gulping down the meatballs and gravy I just gave him. Luna looked at me, and then blushed when I looked towards her. She looked down at her food and smiled. I smile also. Chase was looking shy and not knowing what to talk about.

"Chase? You're new here, correct?" I asked him.

He responded, "Y-yes, why?"

I then ask him, "Have you made any new friends?"

He replies with a sad, "No. I just got here like a few days ago."

I then say triumphantly, "Well now you do!" I point to Odd. "He's Odd…his name really is Odd." Then I pointed to Jeremy. "He's Jeremy. He's the brains of the group, but I beg to differ," I laughed. When he looked at me with a glare, I said, "I'm kidding, Jeremy."

Jeremy responds with a smile. "I know where you sleep."

I laugh and then point to Aelita. "This cutie is Aelita." She blushed, and then Jeremy and Luna punch me. "Ow, I was only stating the obvious!" I yelled in pain. Then I pointed to Luna and said, "This cutie here is Luna." I then yell, "I LIKE HER, SO BACK OFF!" Then I smile and blush, then point to an empty seat. "Umm…Ulrich and Yumi aren't back yet?"

Jeremy shook his head. "No, they went to a movie like 3 hours ago. I'll call them."

I answer before he gets to dial. "Nahh, leave them alone. When will they have some time alone again? Without XANA bothering them for that matter?"

Jeremy then says, "Yeah, I guess you're right."

I say, "Then I guess you will meet them sometime today."

Then Chase waves to everyone saying, "Hi, I'm Chase. I'm from Brazil."

The group then says, "Hi, Chase!"

The bell rings. "Hmm, lunchtime's over. Let's hangout in my room until Yumi and Ulrich get back," Jeremy says to the group.

We all walk back to Jeremy and my dorm. As we walk past a door I hear a dog bark in one of the rooms. Even Chase was wondering what that was. I then say, "Umm…did you guys hear that?"

Odd goes to his door and opens it and points at a dog. "Awwww, it's doggie. Wait…you can't have pets on campus," Chase said.

Odd then says sadly, "Yeah, I know, but I couldn't bear leaving him back home."

I then say, "I wish I could have brought my dog here, but I'm pretty sure he wouldn't even fit in my room."

Then the group came in to the room and sat down. "What kind of dog do you have?" Odd asked.

"A German Shepard," I said happily.

"Aww, I like those types of dogs," Chase says out loud.

I then started to feel sad, and then said, "I miss him though… Wait a minute!" I get up and grab my laptop from my dresser and sit back down. "I think it's time you guys see my dog and family."

I log on to E-sky to see if mom or dad are on. But they weren't, so I send them a quick message saying, 'Hi, Mom and Dad. Send me a reply when you get this.' I close my transparent computer with sadness.

"Awwww, what's wrong?" Luna says as she puts her chin on top of my head.

I put my hands on her face randomly and say, "Oh, my parents aren't online."

She then hugs me from behind as I'm sitting on the carpet, and says, "It's okay. You got us to keep you company."

I blush and hug her and say, "I'm lucky to have good friends like you guys." Then everyone including Chase group hugs me.

Time went on and it was 3 hours until dinner, and I get a text. "Hey, guys, Ulrich sent me a message."

It read, 'Sorry that it took so long. Yumi and I went to a movie and had dinner. We'll be back in about thirty minutes."

I then say at the end of reading the message, "Aww, that's so sweet!" I then clear my throat. "Who wants to go watch football or some hunting shows," I say in a manly voice.

Everyone laughs. "Oh! That reminds me… We will be playing football in gym tomorrow," Odd says.

I then say, "Really? Don't you guys need like helmets and armor for that?"

Then Odd says, "Umm, what? OH! You mean American football! No, we play what you call soccer."

I then started to feel embarrassed, and then thought, Fuck it! I'm from America. I'm representing America.

Jeremy groaned, and then said, "I hate gym. Too much…work." He then laughed.

Then I laughed. "I know the feeling. I don't have a gym class. I already have the two years that I need."

Jeremy then says with envy, "Lucky!"

I laughed and so did the group. We walked around campus for about an hour and then I said, "I heard that Ulrich isn't getting good grades. Did I hear right?"

Odd then says, "Good is just an understatement. He's actually getting worse."

I then say sadly, "Why doesn't he ask for help then?"

Jeremy says, "He's an egotistical moron. I'm sorry but it's true. He's too worried about his ego than his future. I don't see the problem in asking for help once in a while."

I then looked sad, and then I saw Ulrich and Yumi standing in the entrance of the campus. Ulrich and Yumi kiss, and then I look away because I don't want to be portrayed as a pervert. That's so adorable, I think to myself. That was me. I helped them get to that point. I smiled.

"Umm, Blazie? You okay?" Luna asks me, but I'm unresponsive.


Okay, Chapter 11 will be up shortly. Don't worry, I won't forget again.
