Something About You Something About You Something About You Something About You
Ulrich paused right outside of Yumi's front door. His knuckles were inches away from the wood, and now he was rethinking.
'What happens if she I just get her madder? What if she get s so upset, we break up? What if I mess up or something—
Calm down, you're not going to mess up. Just rap your knuckles on the front door, and ask if you can talk to Yumi.
But what if it is Yumi? What if she slams it in my face?
Than just knock again. Her parents will make her open it up and let you in or they'll open it theirselves.'
Ulrich relaxed, and then firmly knocked on the door. Yumi's mother opened it up.
"Hello Ulrich."
"Hello Mrs. Isiyama (oops if I spelled that wrong). May I see Yumi?"
"Sure. She's in her room."
Ulrich walked up the staircase and towards Yumi's elegant bedroom. Her door was ajar, and he let himself in.
Yumi was sitting on her bed, staring up at the ceiling. Her head turned when she saw who it was. "Oh. Hi Ulrich," she said coldly.
"Look Yumi, I have something to tell you."
"Well make it quick, I have much better things to do with my time."
"Like reflect on your past actions, and regretting some of the things you did?"
Yumi's expression seemed to soften, and she whispered, "How do you know?"
"That's what I've been doing. But I realized that I had to take action. I know what I did was stupid, and childish. And you were right. But I don't want a misunderstanding breaking up our relationship."
Yumi blinked away tears for a moment, before giving in and letting them run down her face openly. "I'm sorry too. I shouldn't have gotten so mad and upset. It was stupid."
"We were both stupid."
"And, and I just want it in the past. Forgive and forget."
"God, cause that's the way I want it too."
Yumi sat up, wiped her tears away, and looked into Ulrich's eyes. Ulrich felt a warm flush creep up his faced, but he pushed it away.
"You know Ulrich, there's something about you that makes everything alright."
"And there's something about your smile that makes me feel happy too."
"Oh stop it, you're joking."
"I'm not!"
Yumi leaned closer to Ulrich. "Ulrich, there's something about us. Sometimes we seem like we'll be together forever, but other times we're just friends. What do you think?"
Ulrich felt that flush come up again. Yumi was too close, her head to close to his, her eyes inches away from his own eyes.
"Um, uh…," Ulrich stuttered, not knowing what to say.
Yumi only leaned closer. "Well, this is what I think."
She closed her eyes and leaned closer, her lips puckered. Ulrich had no clue what to do. He felt like she was once again too close, invading her privacy.
'Her eyes are closed,' a voice in his head said, 'You can still make a run for it.'
But another part of him knew what to do. He relaxed, closed his eyes, and leaned closer. The moment their lips touched Ulrich felt a strange tickling sensation. His eyelids fluttered open for a second, but closed almost immediately.
He enjoyed the moment he had with her. He had never had a moment like this, and had no clue if he had ever thought he could do this. School was the only place besides Lyoko he could do it, but that was in public. Even his dorm wouldn't be a private place with Kiwi and Odd hanging around.
As for Lyoko, there was too much to be done there. It had almost happened once, but Ulrich knew a moment like that would never come again. When Odd was either in the real world or looking the other way, and when Aelita was in a tower. Even then, they'd have limited time before they returned to the past.
Ulrich hesitated, but then wrapped his arms around her, and they both savored the moment when they could be themselves.
