Code Lyoko

Chapter 6- new border

A/N: Awesome! Your reviews are awesome! Again everyone is sooo nice, especially Beachgirlie! Well I guess you wanted more, and I'll shut up now so you can start reading, oh and please review if you have time!

Yumi entered the school courtyard the next morning smiling. She had recognized Odd, Ulrich, and Riku all talking a couple yards away from her.

"Hmm, it seems that Riku is fitting in pretty well with the gang." Yumi thought to herself. She approached the group wondering where Jeremie, and Aelita were.

"Hey you guys, I have really good news." Yumi said enthusiastically. Riku and Ulrich were both beaming at Yumi. Odd just knew that they were sort of competing against each other for Yumi.

"What's that Yumi?" Odd had asked before the other two could reply. Yumi had three suitcases in her hand, but he was always kind of slow to realize what was going on.

"Well, as you can see, my parents said yes! I'm staying here for the rest of the year! Oh, and you would never guess…my room is not too far from all you r rooms!" Yumi's smile lit up her soft face.

"AWESOME!" Riku, and Ulrich cried in unison, while glaring at each other.

"Great Yumi, I'll take your stuff upstairs," Odd offered politely, "And don't worry about class, it doesn't start for awhile." Yumi was surprised by Odd's kindness. The two headed up to Yumi's new room, while leaving Riku and Ulrich alone.

"I really, really like that Yumi. Isn't she something? I knew I liked her the first time I saw her." Riku said dreamily, Ulrich couldn't believe his ears, he so badly wanted to punch him.

"What did you say?" Ulrich snapped. "Ok, back off, you don't even know Yumi like I do. I've been friends with her for a long time! AND IF YOU THINK YOU CAN JUST SWEEP HER OFF HER FEET THEN YOU HAVE ANOTHER THING COMING FOR YOU! YUMI IS MINE!" Ulrich realized he shouted loud enough for the whole school to hear him.

"Oh yeah? We'll just see about that!" With his last words, Riku left a very angry Ulrich behind. He hurried along to catch up with the others to get to Mrs. Hertz's class. In the class, Mrs. Hertz stood in the front of the room, with an announcement.

"CLASS? Settle down. Now, as some of you know, we will be having a dance on Thursday, which is in two days. It's shall we say more of a 'formal' dance." Mrs. Hertz announced. The class started talking in all directions, until they were hushed by the teacher. Sissy daydreamed of her wearing a gown and dancing with her 'dream' boyfriend Ulrich, or with the new kid she fancied, Riku.

Class had ended once more, leaving the students with a pile of homework that they had to get done before Thursday. Yumi wasn't to happy about this, after all she still had that truckload to finish. She walked out of the class with the gang, Riku apparently trying anyway to impress her in front of the gang.

"Hey Yumi, would you like me to hold your books while you go to your locker?" Riku asked with an almost sarcastic expression to piss of Ulrich.

"Sure, Riku, thanks." She gave him a warm smile. Ulrich clenched his fists.

"Hey you guys, if you need me, I'll be upstairs with Aelita, we must go monitor Lyoko, meet up with you guys later!" Jeremy announced, Aelita following behind him up the steps.

"Hmm, you sure that's all they're gonna do?" Odd added sarcastically.

"Thanks," said Yumi taking ahold of her books, "Hey Ulrich? Will you save me a seat at lunch? I've got study hall right now, and I need a little time to finish homework before Thursday." She added.

"Of course, see you later Yums…" Yumi kind of laughed at her nickname.

"Oh you'll bet I'll save you a seat at lunch." Ulrich thought to himself. He gave Riku a look-who's-scoring-now look, which made him stomp off all the way to his next class. Ulrich was satisfied.

The truth was, competing with someone else for Yumi made him go crazy. He'd never had to compete with someone for her before, and he knew one thing, he didn't like it at all. He would soon be hoping that Yumi would say yes at lunch to the question he was about to ask her.

A/N: Well sorry it was so short, I kinda needed it to be…lol. Anyway, I hope you all are enjoying it so far, and I think for the most part it's getting better. So I still might take it off, but I don't know we'll see. Well anyway, please keep sending your reviews, they are the ones that keep me going on this story, so anyway thanks for making this story for what it is! It's going to get a little more intense int eh next chapter by the way, o well you will just have to wait for that one….
