Here we go with the third chapter. Also thank you keys of fate for liking this story and for the reviews.

Yumi's POV

"I think this was a good idea." Jeremie said as we sat on a blanket at the park having some sandwiches, corn dogs, and other snacks. "Yeah. We needed a distraction from all the Xana nonsense." Ulrich agreed.

It was a sunny day, only a few clouds in the sky. "I bet you five bucks that I can fit this corn dog in my mouth." Odd challenged. "I'd like to see you try." Ulrich said.

I see Odd trying to stuff the corn dog in this mouth, but he ended up choking. Ulrich handed him a water bottle.

"Next time I say I could do something when I clearly can't, and shouldn't, just punch me in the shoulder." Odd replied. "I'd be glad to." Ulrich said jokingly, giving Odd a light punch on the shoulder.

We continued eating. I saw Jeremie actually laughing, having a good time. It brought a smile on my face. He needed a break from being behind his laptop most of the time.

As I looked at his blonde hair, I wonder how he's able to keep it smooth and clean. I may have been staring for a bit too long because he turned his head and saw me. We smiled at each other.

"Kiwi! Get back here!" I turned my head away from him as I saw Odd chase after his dog. "You two hang tight okay?" Ulrich said as he got up. "He won't get far."

Once they both disappeared into the trees, it was just me and Jeremie. "So. Is there anything you want to talk about?" he asked. "How are things between you and Aelita?" I wondered.

"Things are okay I guess." Jeremie replied. I furrowed my eyebrows. "What do you mean?" I wondered. "I'm still working on figuring out how to bring her here so she doesn't have to be haunted by the creatures in Lyoko." he replied.

He let out a huge sigh. "I think I might be falling in love with her." he replied. I was taken aback. "Really?" I asked.

"Ever since I met her I've been thinking about her almost everyday." he explained. "I'm not sure if she would like me back." he added.

After hearing him say that, I suddenly felt a feeling in my heart. Confidence. I leaned forward. "Why would you think that? Any girl would be lucky to have you." I replied.

He seemed a little surprised. "You really think that?" he asked.

"Of course. You're smart, kind, intelligent, sweet, and understanding." I replied. "You're a great listener. You don't judge other people." He didn't say anything. Didn't blink. Before I knew what was happening, I started leaning forward.

Just as our face's were mere inches from each other, we heard a rustling sound. We both leaped back, and saw Ulrich and Odd return, with Kiwi safely in Odd's arms.

"Don't you ever run away from me again." Odd said to his dog in a calm manner. "Sorry about that." Ulrich said. "So. Where were we?"

Later that night

I can't believe I tried to kiss Jeremie. As I laid down on my bed. Thoughts running through my mind. If Ulrich and Odd hadn't come back at that moment, would we have really kissed? I guess I'm falling in love with him. Does Jeremie feel the same way?

Jeremie's POV

I couldn't sleep. As I kept asking myself the same question over and over again: Was Yumi really trying to kiss me? I didn't know for sure. When she started leaning forward, I just sat still, because if she really wasn't try to kiss me, I didn't want to freak her out.

I've always thought I was in love with Aeltia, but lately I realize I might be falling for Yumi. Is she falling for me too?

Hope you like the chapter. Let me know what you think about it.
