Chapter 10: Peter and Taelia

Kaitlyn's POV

After we left the factory, me and Aelita decided to head up to the dorm for some breathing room. It had been a rough day, and I was exhausted.

"So, a virtual world, huh?" I said, barely believing what had just happened back there. I thought that was all science fiction, maybe everything is possible.

"Yep. Ha-ha, pretty cool, huh?" Aelita giggled.

"I guess, but it's just kind of unreal." I said. Lyoko seemed very intriguing. I didn't know much about it, but the more I hang out with the group, the more I guess I'll get to know what it is.

I was thinking so hard about Lyoko, that I bumped into this guy. "SORRY!" I said quickly.

"It's okay." He smiled. He had brown hair and brown eyes. He wore a red shirt, and brown pants. He appeared to look as if he had been weight lifting, he looked pretty muscular. He was actually pretty cute, but just by looking at him, a guy like him just couldn't be single.

"Hey, would you maybe know where dorm 205 is?" He asked. His voice had a sing-song melody to it, that just made you want to listen to every word they say.

"This is the girls' floor, it's one floor down. And you're in room 205?" I said. That was Jeremie's dorm number.

"Yes." He responded quickly.

"You're in the same dorm as my cousin." I said, as I smiled.

"I'm Peter, Peter Carter. I just moved here from the U.S." He said, kindly.

"I'm Kaitlyn, Kaitlyn Belpois. So did I, ha-ha." I giggled.

"Cool! What part?" He asked.

"Missouri." I said. I glimpsed over at Aelita, and I could tell she loved every second of this.

"Oh, nice! Are you here on a scholarship or-?" He asked.

"Nah. I moved due to inclement weather, my whole town was torn to pieces by an F5. I'm from Joplin." I said.

His facial expression suddenly changed from perkiness to sorrow. "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. That storm was all over the news." He said. (A/N: If you're from the US and reading this, you should know which storm I'm talking about. The Joplin, Missouri storm was a real life event that happened last year.)

"Yeah, But I'm okay." I said, and smiled.

"That's good to know. Well, I better get going. It was nice talking to you, Kaitlyn." He said, and waved at me.

"You, too." I said, and smiled. I waved back.

Aelita then came dancing up to me. "Kaitlyn's got a crush!" She said in a sing-song voice.

"No I don't! He was just kind of cute, that's all." I said, smugly.

"You should've seen the look on your face." Aelita said, giggling a little.

"Okay, okay. I admit it, maybe just a little." I admitted. He looked somewhat like Ulrich, except, honestly, he was a little more built.

My stomach started growling. I checked my phone for the time. It was nearly dinner time.

"Hey, you want to go down for dinner now?" I asked.

"Sure." Aelita said, and smiled.

"Okay, let's go!" I said.

We walked downstairs to the cafeteria. The evening air was cool and crisp, like a late summer night.

We walked into the cafeteria, which smelled of baked chicken and mashed potatoes. The aroma made me even hungrier.

When we got to the front, the server greeted us.

"Well, what'll it be? Steak or Chicken?" She asked kindly.

"Chicken for me, please." I said.

"Same here, please." Aelita said.

She handed us two trays dazzled in potatoes and chicken. I looked straight ahead at the table, until a bright patch of dark red hair caught my eye. The wearer wore a dark red jacket with a dark red skirt and knee high socks. I recognized that style anywhere.

"Oh, hell no…."
