Pairings: YxU of course, with bits of JxA

Author's Notes: Hm...not much to say currently. Except, my goddess you review fast!

Odd flopped onto his bed, heard a yelp, and jumped up. "Oops, sorry Ki...didn't mean to sit on your tail again," he apologized to the traumatized dog. Kiwi, ran over to Yumi, sitting against her side as she rubbed his ears.

"Your brutal to the dog Odd," Ulrich muttered. Odd shrugged.

"What can I say, I just find the wrong places to sit. And I apologized to him...He's the one that's taking it so hard..." Odd grumbled.

Yumi shook her head before reaching over and grabbing a notebook and pen. "Okay guys, we need to come up with positive arguments for Ulrich to use on his parents. I figure we could bring up the fact that it can be considered part of a history credit..."

"2) Ulrich's kept an impeccable record with sports," Odd put in. They laughed a little at that and Odd grinned as he flipped through the radio stations.

"Well Odd, if we're going with that, then why not, I'm an excellent fighter in Lyoko, I don't get half as many devirtuilzations as Odd..." Ulrich joked. Odd stuck his tongue out at him and Yumi hit them both over the head with the notebook.

"Be serious! You tow can be such juveniles... What about the fact that it's pretty cheap?"

"They may go for that. It's educational?" Ulrich added. Yumi nodded, writing it down in the notebook.

"He gets to spend time with his bestest friends?" Odd asked. Yumi hit him over the head with the book and he cringed away. "Not nice! Truce! White flag!" Odd yelped, holding up a pillow as a shield.

"Back on topic...not interfering with finals or any sports related activities," Yumi added. "I checked before I mentioned it..." she said when she caught Ulrich's look. He nodded and stretched, taking a pillow off his bed.

"We could also bring up the fact that I can pitch in with the money..." Ulrich added.

Yumi nodded again and closed the pen. "I think you should call them now, give them the reasons...see what they say..." she said. He grabbed his cell, took the notebook and signaled Odd to be quiet as he picked up the phone and dialed the number of his house.

"Uh hi mom...it's me...I was wondering..."

Odd looked at Yumi. "Think he'll have a chance of convincing them?" he asked.

"I hope Odd, it won't be the same without him..." she murmured, watching Ulrich list the reasons for allowing him to go. They sat in silence for awhile, until Jeremie and Aelita arrived and sat down next to them.

"How's it going?" Jeremie asked, looking at Ulrich.

"Not sure...he's been on for about twenty minutes..." Yumi said, smiling thinly. Odd pulled on his headphones, shrugging a little at them as he cranked his songs.

"Okay mom, okay dad. Thanks a lot," Ulrich said after another ten minutes. "Yeah, I'll be sure to let you know, and them. Yeah..." pause, "MOM! It's not like that...we...yes...alright, I'll talk to you later. Love you guys. Bye," Ulrich hung up the phone...looking down for a moment before glancing at them. "Hey guys, how are you?" he asked Jeremie and Aelita.

"We're good, how about you?" Jeremie asked.

"Enough with the small talk Ulrich, can you or can't you?" Odd demanded, ripping off his headphones.

Ulrich took a deep breath, slowly looking at each of them in turn, even Kiwi. "Well, after a long discussion, we, they, agreed that...I can go!" he exclaimed.

"Yes!" Odd yelled jumping up and falling on his bed. Jeremie grinned and Aelita smiled. Yumi threw herself on Ulrich, hugging him tightly.

"You can go, really?" she asked as she hugged him.

"Really," he replied.

"That's great, wonderful, splendid..." she trailed off, quickly pulling away once realizing the position they were in. The others laughed, even Kiwi, as Ulrich and Yumi blushed and looked around the room.

Author's Note: So how horrible, remember only three reviews will get you a new chapter...
