Summer time! School is over and Ulrich's dad arranged something special again. This time the group is going to all the major countries in the world! The groups romance become stronger, friendships become better. They're going to make this summer a blast...Maybe.
Last time on Summer Blast:
Ulrich clicked the green button on his phone
"Hello"
"Hey Ulrich, It's mom. It's about your father…"
:::::::Beginning of Chapter:::::
Ulrich took a deep breathe "What about dad"
"Um, the doctors said they might have something that can help, but the outcome is it can take up to three or four days for it to take place. And the other outcome is the stuff there going to give him, sometimes causes death if it doesn't work"
"What are they giving him" Ulrich leaned his back on the wall
"Come on here now, and I'll explain everything"
"Ok" Ulrich said
"Ok, see you in a little"
"See you" Ulrich clicked the red button on his phone.
"What did your mom say" Yumi asked
"She said the doctors might have something that will help him get better, but the outcome is it will take a few days, and sometimes it causes death" Ulrich sighed
"What are you going to do" Yumi asked
Ulrich shrugged "I don't know. I mean I want to say yes give that to him, but I don't want the death part to happen"
"You're all out of toilet paper" Raine turned the corner.
Ulrich and Yumi looked and Raine, the walked out to the backyard.
"So where's the toilet paper" Raine yelled
(Back outside)
"Took you two long enough, what were you doing" Odd asked
"I had to get Raine off my back, and then I got a phone call from my mom about my father" Ulrich said "We have to get dressed and meet my mom at the hospital"
The couples that were laying down on the sun loungers got up and walked into the house.
"What did she say" Jeremy asked
"They might have something for my father so he can get better" Ulrich said
"Um I need to know where the-" Raine said coming up to the group
"Look now isn't good time to ask any stupid questions you have right now, so get out and go home" Trinity pointed to the door.
Raine looked at Trinity "Ook" Raine the walked out the door.
"Wow she listened" Aelita said
The group went into their separate rooms, got dressed and headed towards the hospital.
(At the hospital)
"Mom" Ulrich said walking to up to his mom, who was talking to nurse and a doctor.
"Ulrich sweetie, come here" Alison said
Ulrich did as he was told and approached his mom, the doctor, and the nurse.
"They were talking to me about the cure the were going to give him" Alison mom started
"Hello Ulrich, now, I'm going to go into more detail about the cure with you and your mom" The doctor started "Now the medicine is going to be take through the nose, so it can go up to his brain. The medicine will possibly try to clean up everything, as you know it will take up some time to know the result of John Stern. And we will do anything and everything to make sure that the results we don't want to happen, not happen"
Ulrich and his mom nodded there heads "And how much will this cost" Alison asked
"The medicine, well since it is very rare, it may costs as well up to three thousand" the doctor.
Alison nodded her head "Whatever will bring him back"
"So you're going to go with it" The nurse spoke
Ulrich looked at his mom, who looked back at him and smiled. "Yes"
The doctor and nurse nodded their heads "Ok, we will start the procedure"
"Wait, can we have a word with him" Ulrich asked
"Of course" The nurse smiled "His room is the fourth one, on the left"
Ulrich and his mom nodded their heads and went back to the room.
"Remember what I told you Ulrich, he is going to look very sick and pale" Alison mentioned, as the approached the room.
Ulrich nodded his head and walked into his father's room, when he did he saw his father laid out on the hospital bed. He was indeed very pale and his eyes had dark circles around them. Ulrich pulled up a chair beside his father, as his mother did the same on the other side of the hospital bed.
"Hey dad" Ulrich touched his fathers hand
Ulrich's father slowly turned his head to look at Ulrich, he weakly smiled
"Son" his father asked
Ulrich nodded "It's me dad"
Ulrich's dad coughed "Glad to see *cough* you, son"
Ulrich slightly smiled, he hated to see his father in this condition "Glad to see you too"
"John, we have something to tell you" Alison stated, John's head slowly turned to face his wife.
"Um, the doctors are going to give you this medicine, to try to help you get better. But, the results aren't going to come into a couple of days" Alison was looking at her husband, who slowly nodded his head.
"And *cough* what happens if *cough* it doesn't work *cough*"
Alison looked down and nodded her head "If it doesn't work, they say you might…"
Ulrich sighed and looked down at his father's hand.
"I might *cough* die" John asked
"You're not going to die dad" Ulrich spoke, John turned his attention back to his son.
Ulrich looked at his dad and nodded his head "You're not going to die"
John held his sons hand tighter "You never know what could…"
"Dad for a long time I wanted to tell you that I'm going to follow in your footsteps, be the man you always wanted me to be. I know why you put me through this, putting all the pressure on me to get my grades up. You did it out of love so I don't have to grow up living in a box on the street. You taught me to be a real man. I thank you for that dad" Ulrich told
Ulrich dad smiled and held his arm out, Ulrich leaned down and gave his father and hug. As he did he felt tears run down his eyes. "I love you dad, no matter what happens"
"I love you too son" John held his son, Alison smiled at the two.
"Excuse me, we need to start the procedure with John now" The nurse walked into the room.
Ulrich let go off his father's hug "You'll get through this"
Alison nodded her head and kissed his husbands forehead, and slowly walked out the room meeting her son at the door; they got one last look at John, before going into the waiting room again.
"He's going to make it mom, I know he will" Ulrich said with confidence, but on the inside, he still worried.
His mom smiled, but behind her smiled she had little doubt "I'm sure he will"
The two soon walked back in the waiting room, meeting back up with the others
"How is he" Yumi asked
"Um, there are working on him now, we'll see how everything goes" Ulrich looked down.
Yumi went up to him and hugged him, Ulrich felt a tear run down his face as he hugged his girlfriend back. Alison smiled, and soon joined the hugging couple, the others joined the group hug too.
"You want to stay here for a few hours, wait on a little results from the doctor on how he took the medicine" Alison asked after the group hug was finished
Ulrich nodded his head "Yeah"
"Ok, but right now go get something to eat, I'm sure you must be starving" Alison said "There is a place right around the corner from here"
Ulrich was about to say something until his mom cut him off.
"Don't worry, if I get any news I'll call you" Alison slightly smiled
Ulrich nodded his head "Alright, you want me to bring you back something"
"Uh, just a turkey sandwich will be fine" Ulrich's mom sat down in a chair.
Ulrich nodded his head and walked towards the exit to the hospital, with his friends following him. The group walked in semi-silence to the corner restaurant. The group went in the restaurant, seated, and ordered their drinks. They sat in a silence.
Ulrich was seated next to the window, so he was looking out the window; at the traffic. Odd was looking at the menu trying to decide what to go to eat, also Trinity was doing the same. Aelita was looking at surroundings, while Jeremy was also looking out the window. Yumi was thinking of Ulrich and how he must really be right now; because he was doing a good job of not showing his emotions.
"Are you guy ready to order" The waitress asked putting the drinks on the table. The group nodded their heads and put in their orders.
"Are you going to be ok Ulrich buddy" Odd asked looking at his friends who was sulking in the chair.
Ulrich looked up at Odd "Yeah, just thinking"
"What did the doctors say" Yumi asked
"They said they were going to give him this medicine that can possibly cure him" Ulrich said "It will take a few days to know the results, but if it doesn't work he'll…die"
"I'm sure he'll make it" Yumi rubbed his back.
"Yeah, if you're everything like your father, he'll make it, since you're a strong guy" Jeremy said
"We all know that he is going to make it Ulrich, we won't give him on him" Aelita said
"Just have no doubt about it, don't think about the bad things that might happen, because if you do that just might happen…that's what my mom taught me" Trinity said
Ulrich nodded his head "I know he'll make it"
"There's the confidence, just be happy Ulrich, yeah that sound weird and all with everything going on, but if you believe that he's going to make it, then don't sit and sulk" Trinity shrugged
Ulrich nodded his head "Ok"
Soon after the group received their food and while they were eating they had a good time. There was laughter and a lot of talking going on.
When they were done, Ulrich grabbed his mom's food, and then headed back to the hospital. Just when they did the doctor was coming from behind the doors.
"Did he do ok doctor" Alison asked getting up. Ulrich walked up and stood beside his mom.
"As far as we know, he took it pretty good, but we still have to wait and see for a few days" The doctor said "but yes he took the treatment pretty well, now only time needs to do the job. He still has the paleness and everything though"
"Ok as long as he took it ok, that's what matters right now right" Alison asked smiling a little.
The doctor smiled "Yes"
Alison smiled and pulled her son into a hug "He's going to make it"
Ulrich smiled and hugged his mother back. "Yes he is"
Ulrich's mom pulled away from the hug and talked to the doctor some more about her husband.
Ulrich turned to his friends, who had a questioning look on their face.
Ulrich smiled "He took the treatment well, now only time can only tell"
"That's good" Odd yelled "MR. STERN IS GOING TO MAKE IT. WHOOO " Odd yelled running down the hall.
The group laughed at their friend
"He is so stupid" Trinity laughed
"Really what do you see in him" Aelita joked
"He's a boy version of me" Trinity smiled
"He is isn't he" Yumi said
"Yup" Trinity laughed, Yumi and Aelita laughed along with her.
Yumi turned to Ulrich and gave him another hug, Ulrich smiled returning the hug.
"I'm glad he took the treatment ok" Yumi said in the hug.
"Me too Yumes, me too" Ulrich smiled
After about another hour spending in the hospital, seeing if there was any other news about Ulrich's father, which he was still ok. The group went back to Ulrich's house for the rest of the remaining day.
"So what do you guys want to do now" Odd asked laying out on the couch.
"How about bet Aelita took us up on" Jeremy suggested
"Ah excellent" Odd grinned "What games to you have Ulrich"
"Uh, I remember a laser tag being down there" Ulrich answered
"Awesome laser tag" Odd was excited
"Yup"
"Alright, guys against girls like always" Odd yelled, running going to the game room.
The others ran to the game room and put of the laser tag vest.
"Alright red for the girls, and blue for the guys" Ulrich said, starting up the vests
"Ok, so the score can on go to 25 just like the pool. If us guys win you have to, um, you have to…" Odd was thinking
"Well while he's thinking, he we win you guys have to do anything at our command anything we say do or get, you have to do" Trinity smirked
"Ok, and if us guys win, I will have something for Trinity to do, Jeremy will have something for Aelita to do, and Ulrich will have some for Yumi to do" Odd smirked back.
"Fine, bring it" Trinity said pressing the green start button.
"Alright ladies, you go hide first" Ulrich smiled
"Get ready to lose" Yumi smiled back going into the dark room.
"We'll see" Ulrich said
The guys waited thirty seconds for the girls to hide until the guys scrambled in.
"Now get ready. Start" A computer voice started up the game, lighting up the vests and shooting laser gun.
The group was laughing and was shooting each other with the lasers, the score was at 11 guys 10 girls right now.
"I see you Trinity" Odd laughed running after Trinity, Trinity quickly ducked behind the corner and waited for Odd to come around the corner, which he never did. Instead he shot from the opposite side of Trinity. Trinity playfully screamed and shot Odd sever times before running away.
Yumi was hiding in a little small space, she saw a blue light getting ready to turn the corner. Yumi smirked and held her gun getting ready to shoot. Yumi noticed that this was Ulrich, which really made her get ready to shoot, because sometimes he can be very slick. But he turned the corner and Yumi got up and shot at him, Ulrich laughed and started shooting at Yumi back.
Aelita was slowly walking around checking her surrounding for any blue lights coming near her. She heard Yumi and Trinity running around, she guessed they had been caught. Aelita got a quick glance at the score board which read 23 guys 20 girls. Aelita cursed under her breathe, just the a blue light quickly turned the corner and shot at her, it was Jeremy who was laughing.
"Guys win, girls lose" The computer voice announced
"Yeah, yeah we know" Trinity spoke as the lights came back on
"I told you we would win" Odd smirked meeting up with Trinity
"Yeah whatever" Trinity laughed, playfully shoving Odd.
"See, we won" Ulrich snuck up behind Yumi
Yumi smiled "Ok, so what, what are you going to make me do huh"
"It's not going to be as bad as you think" Ulrich whispered
"What are you going to make me do Jeremy" Aelita asked taking off her vest.
"You'll see when that time comes" Jeremy smirked
"Why can't you tell me, is it bad" Aelita asked
"Oh no way" Jeremy laughed
Aelita crossed her arms "lair"
The group went back upstairs and started watching some television on the huge TV"
"So when does this bet happen" Yumi asked
"You'll know when that time comes" Ulrich answered
"Yeah, be patient" Odd pointed to Yumi
Yumi rolled her eyes and looked back at the TV screen.
"Well whenever you decide this bet is coming into place, I am going in the Jacuzzi" Trinity said going to her room.
"I'm going to go in with you" Odd yelled
"Yeah right" Trinity laughed running up the stair and slamming the door shut.
"Aw Trinity let me in" Odd yelled
The others laughed at the couple
"I think I'm going to go lay down in the room" Aelita said getting up
"You want me to come" Jeremy asked
"Sure" Aelita smiled. The couple got up and went to their room.
"So what do you want to do" Yumi looked at Ulrich
"I want to show you something" Ulrich said getting up, and taking Yumi's hand.
Yumi smiled "Ok"
The couple soon walked out the back door and started walking in the woods.
Ok so next chapter will be in the same night it will consist of three chapter for each couple.
And the bets from the guys will come in at later chapters
