Chapter 5- problem?

A/N: OMG! I am astounded by your reviews! They are the best ever! You people are so nice! I would like to give special thanks to: Trinkilla, J, Beachgirlie, terragirl, dbzgal99, and everyone else for giving me awesome reviews! You wanted more? Well here you go, and without your reviews, chapter 5 would've never happened so owe it to yourselves. I'm still thinking about taking it off, but I don't know…anyway here you go!

Yumi awoke to the sun, flooding her room with a soft light. She glanced over at her alarm clock. 7:30 shown on the clock. She was right on time after, she set her clock for 8:00, but at least she had an extra half an hour to do whatever. Yumi took a steamy shower, which was refreshing to her in the morning. Warm water poured on her for about twenty minutes. She got out and dressed in her usual black attire.

"Yumi? Are you almost ready? Your father is ready to take you to school!" Her mother announced from downstairs.

"Yeah mom! Just give me a minute will ya?" She grabbed her bag, full of books, and homework that she had been attempting to finish for quite sometime. She rushed down the stairs, almost knocking over her father who was standing at the bottom.

"Ready?" Asked her father, opening the oak door to the outside.

"Yeah." She replied grimly, she still was not entirely woken up, for some odd reason she wish she would have had time to have some coffee.

Yumi had open the door to the car, and noticed another unexpected person sitting in the backseat.

"Hey, Yumi, your father offered to take me to school with you." It was Riku. He flashed her a smile, his teeth were surprisingly white.

"Oh hey, Riku, that's great…OH! Wait until you meet my friends." Yumi decided that it would be fun to introduce someone new to the group. And obviously he would have to be apart of the group if she was.

Her father pulled out of the driveway, and headed to the school. The two were chatting and laughing in the back all the way there. Yumi's father finally arrived at the school. Yumi spotted Aelita's pink hair from a distance, she had also spotted Odd.

"Hey! You guys! Come here!" She wanted to see their reaction to Riku. Ulrich and Jeremie followed behind Aelita, and Odd.

"Hey Yumi, who is your friend?" At once everyone was directed toward the tall brunette standing beside Yumi.

"Well Odd, this is Riku, remember the guy I told you guys about? He moved to my block, he's actually right next door, his father got a job here." At once Ulrich's mouth dropped, and he looked puzzled.

"Hey everyone!" Riku said excitedly. Ulrich stared, still holding his once puzzled look.

"Ulrich? You ok?" Ulrich shook his head, and snapped out of his confusion. Ulrich couldn't believe it, but he felt somewhat jealous of Riku. Not just because Yumi met him, but he wasn't to happy at he fact that there would be someone new to the group. But almost everyone else was.

"Yeah…" Ulrich replied.

"Well Riku? What is your first class?" Odd asked, flashing his signature smile. He was taking to Riku quite well.

"Mrs. Hertz, I think." He said checking his schedule.

"Oh! Perfect! We all have that class too! We'd better go if it's starting soon!" Aelita said rushing everyone to the class. They arrived in class and took their seats, and Mrs. Hertz introduced Riku, which wasn't shy at all. He took his seat between Yumi, and Jeremie. Ulrich sat behind the two, well Aelita sat beside him in the back. Sissy noticed him almost at once.

"Hey, Nicholas, look what we have here, a new addition to the group…" Sissy smirked to a red-head sitting next to her. Sissy had to admit to herself that he was pretty cute. She figured soon or later she would develop a crush on him. Class ended, and many noisy students bustled out of Mrs. Hertz's class. Odd had shown Riku where his dorm was.

"Thanks, Odd, thanks to all of you for all of your help." Riku said, happily.

"Wait a second, how do you have a dorm, if you live right next door to me?" Yumi asked out of confusion, Ulrich wondered about that, too.

"Well, the principle here gave me an option if I wanted to or not, so I guess I will. It will gave me a chance to get used to this school." Yumi nodded in agreement. Ulrich thought that maybe Yumi should do the same.

"Hey Yumi, why don't you do the same?" Yumi was surprised Ulrich was talking; he hadn't really said anything all day.

"Yeah, I'll ask my parents if that'd be ok, but first I would have to get the ok from the principle you know." Ulrich hadn't really thought about that. Everyone, including Ulrich, had left to their dorms, to do homework, or go to sleep or whatever. Except Riku and Yumi. It was night, and Riku's parents had already help set up his room there. Soon Yumi's parents would be arriving. She decided to talk to the principle. Yumi had gone to the principle while Riku waited outside the office.

Yumi knocked on the principle's office door.

"Come in!" He said at once, not knowing who it was.

"Hi, can I talk to you?" Yumi asked.

"Yes Yumi, but why are you still here? Aren't your parents coming?" He asked puzzled.

"Yeah, but anyway, but anyway I was wondering if I had the option to stay here in a dorm." She was hoping for the best.

"Why yes Yumi, if it's ok with your parents that is." Yumi was surprised. How can Sissy's father be so nice, but Sissy be such a brat?

"Thanks." Yumi called while leaving his office, and meeting up with Riku outside.

"Hey Yumi, how did it go?" Riku asked, with bright eyes twinkling in the dark.

"Great Riku! I can stay!" She had to admit it would be better than driving back and forth from school each day.

"Cool, but your parents are waiting in front." He pointed to the shiny black car, a distance away. She realized she still had to ask her parents.

"Ok well bye Riku!" She called while heading towards the black car.

"Bye!" Riku called back.

What Yumi didn't know was that Riku so badly wanted to tell her that he actually liked her, the car pulled away, and left Riku outside, in the dark, cool, night.

A/N: Ok, well there you go! Hope you liked it, and plus there will be a big surprise in the next chapter. Let's just say it has something to do with a kiss from an unexpected person…maybe Riku, or Ulrich, but I won't tell now…anyway please review and tell me what you think!
