A/N: Thank you so much for all your reviews! I really appreciate it a lot!
aznBLONDiE xD – I know! Sorry about the short chapters! It's really hard though! I'll try to make them a little longer! Especially after this one!
dbzgal99 - maybe! You'll just have to read and find out! = )
yumi165 – I do too. That's why I wanted to my first fanfic to have at least a little thing of them in it!
"What is it?" Yumi asked as she turned so she was facing Ulrich.
Ulrich took a deep breath. 'Come on! Stop staring at her and just tell her that you love her!' "Yumi, I . . . ."
"Return to the past now!" Jeremy said as he pushed the enter key on the keyboard.
Ulrich then found himself not in Lyoko with Yumi, but with a sleeping Odd in their dorm. Time had gone back to earlier that morning. It wasn't too early but classes hadn't quite started yet either. Ulrich sat on his bed trying to think. Odd started to snore.
'Was that all just some crazy dream?' Ulrich wasn't sure whether time had gone back or if he had fallen asleep and dreamt about fighting in Lyoko and trying to tell Yumi how he felt about her. 'It seemed real though. Was it? I don't know . . . I guess I'll just ask Odd when he gets up. I'll try not to worry about it that much right now. I guess I should try to go back to sleep.' Odd had stopped snoring at the moment so Ulrich decided not to put in his earplugs. He pulled the covers on top of him and he was almost asleep when he thought he heard something. 'What was that?' Ulrich look up and saw Odd shutting the door behind him as he left the dorm. 'Oh great! I just missed him! Oh well! I guess I'll just have to wait until he gets back.' Ulrich looked at his alarm clock. 'While I'm waiting I should get ready.' Ulrich started to get dressed and was just about to get his shirt on when he heard a knock at the door. 'I hope it's not Sissy again.' Ulrich thought as he opened the door.
"Oh! Yumi!" Ulrich said surprised.
"Did I come too early?"
"No. I just wasn't expecting to see you!" Ulrich said as he put his shirt on.
"Yumi smiled as she watched him put it on, but quickly looked away before he saw her staring. She went and sat on his bed.
"So why did you come Yumi?"
"Well, I wanted to let you . . ." Yumi stopped when she heard the door open. Odd walked in.
"Oh I see we have company!" Odd said smiling. "I'll just leave you two alone and go get something to eat!" Odd said slipping out the door before Ulrich could say anything. Ulrich blushed.
"What were you saying Yumi?"
"Well, I came here to let you finish what you were saying in Lyoko. I don't know if you did or not but I couldn't hear it if you did. Probably because of going back into time." Yumi smiled. "Anyway go on Ulrich. What was wrong?"
"Oh yeah! I didn't get to finish!" Ulrich said also smiling. 'So it was real after all. I have to tell her now. No more backing out at the last second or putting it off. If I don't tell her soon then I don't know what I'll do!' Ulrich sat down on his bed by Yumi. He grabbed her hands and held them in his own. Yumi blushed a little bit. "Yumi . . . . I don't know how else to say this, but I love you. I have for as long as I've know you. I never wanted to tell you though because I was so scared that you would tell me you didn't love me back. I know this could affect our friendship, but I couldn't stand it anymore! You not knowing how I feel about you was so hard on me but I knew there would be a perfect time to tell you. I think that it's now."
". . ." Yumi's face was bright red. She couldn't say anything.
Odd knocked on the door. "Are you guys done in there yet? I need to feed Kiwi!"
Ulrich looked at Yumi.
". . ."
Ulrich dropped his head and let go of Yumi's hands.
"You can come in Odd." Ulrich got off his bed, grabbed his jacket, and out it on as he left
". . ." Yumi looked at Ulrich as he left but she didn't say anything to stop him. She wanted more then anything to tell him she loved him too, but for some reason the words just wouldn't come out of her mouth. She couldn't even move.
"What happened to you Yumi?" Odd asked looking at the frozen Yumi sitting on Ulrich's bed as he fed Kiwi. "Yumi? Are you ok? What happened?" He asked knowing something was wrong.
When she came to her senses, Yumi got up slowly and started to run after Ulrich. Yumi kept running until she finally found him. She ran up behind him and put her arms around him. "I love you too, Ulrich!" Yumi said quietly since they were in the hall. She smiled at Ulrich as he turned around. Ulrich hugged her back and smiled too.
