The Day After

Yumi glared over at her four friends from a distance they were all sharing a laugh after shutting up sissy for what seemed like the 100th time. Ulrich seemed to be laughing the most, even Odd had noticed.

"Hey what's happened? You haven't seemed this happy since Aelita was materialized." Odd asked.

Ulrich simply shrugged and they set off for the cafeteria for breakfast.

'What am I going to do?' Yumi thought to herself 'I don't know how I'm going to act around him anymore'

Deciding that she would simply walk into the cafeteria and leave it up to Ulrich.

Yumi walked over to her friends table and sat down. She saw Ulrich flash her a smile while the others said 'hello'

Aelita looked over to Ulrich who had stopped eating and over to Yumi who was so silent for a morning.

"What happened last night Yumi?" Aelita asked when they were in the ladies.

Yumi blushed "er nothing why?"

"because I know you met up with Ulrich Odd told us and Ulrich refused to let us know what had happened simply saying 'things had been said' now what were those things?"

At that moment the bell rang for classes

'Saved by the bell' was Yumi's only thought

As she rushed out of the bathroom she bumped right into Ulrich who blushed and said: "can we talk at lunch?"

"sure"
