A/N: Well, that was the last double chapter. This must be a single chapter since it is a vital part in the story. Can't tell you right here, because it'll ruin the whole chapter for you. Let me begin!

Disclaimer: The only character I own at the moment is Jules Verne (I will own more soon).

Chapter 6: I'll Admit That

Jules was standing in front of D-Tent. Not with anyone, but alone, in her thoughts. "This is it", she said to herself. "The long awaited moment." Would he admit that he did like her? Or would he deny it and be angry at her? These were some questions that were swimming around in her head as she bit her tongue, swallowed her pride, and stepped inside. Up until that moment, Zigzag had been thinking about his fall. 'I was such an idiot. Now she'll think I'm a complete klutz' were the basic thoughts inside his head. He was so busy thinking about it, he didn't even notice Jules step in. But he soon did, for he sensed a presence besides himself in the room. "Hello Zigzag", she said, looking down at her feet. "I needed to ask you something." He froze. 'Is this it?', he thought. "What do you need?", he asked, turning around so he was facing her. She looked him in the eye and twisted what Zero told her a little (she didn't want him to get beat up by Zig). She said, "There's been a rumor going around that you, um, like me and I didn't want to jump to conclusions. So I wanted to find out for myself. Do you like me, Ricky?" His eyes widened as she asked. He took a deep breath and said, "First of all, how do you know my real name?" She smiled and replied, "I read your file." He then asked, "And second of all, why would I like you?" Jules stopped smiling for a moment and pondered this. 'Why would he like me?' , she thought. Then she thought of a good reply. "You're acting as though you were in love with me. You're really shy around me, you become a klutz when I am near you, and you really like my company. Typical signs of love." Zig smiled and asked smugly, "And how would you know that?" She laughed and said, "All women come equipped with this ability! It's grand to have it!" Zigzag had gone into a daze after she said that. She was right. He was in love with her. But he feared he would be rejected. That she would slap him and say, "Don't talk nonsense!". He wanted her, but he didn't know if she felt the same way. Jules then pleaded, "Please just admit it! It'll take a load off your mind!" She was becoming very huffy. Zig knew he had to surrender, for he could not stand to see her angry. Zigzag said, "I deny that I like you." Jules was shocked. "What do you mean, Zig?" He said, "I don't like you." "Then what do you admit?", she asked. Zigzag looked her straight in the eye and stated simply, "I love you. I'll admit that."

A/N: Suspenseful huh? He had to keep these secrets for a month in his head! That's torture! Thanks to those who have been reading and remember, if you read, please be sure to review. Thanks!
