Chapter 2; Jeremie's Call

Jeremie sighed as he called Odd on his cell. Odd was in his dorm room with Ulrich when his cell rang. Ulrich looked over wondering if it was Yumi.

"Hey Einstein, what is it?"

Jeremie paused, "Could you come over to my room? Aelita wishes to speak with you."

"Aelita?"

Ulrich looked at Odd giving him a "what's going on" look. Odd waved Ulrich off, signaling it has nothing to do with XANA.

"Why does she wanna speak to me?" I hope everything's okay with her…

"I don't know. I'm going to see if Ulrich needs help in any subjects. Come here and speak to her if you wish."

Odd laughed, "Yeah he does. Like every subject."

Jeremie laughed weakly, "Yeah look who's talking."

"I'm starting my quest to your room now Jeremie!" Odd said as he hung up the phone.

"What was that about?"

Odd started walking to the door, "Nothing. Aelita wants to talk to me. Einstein's on his way here."

Ulrich blinked then smiled, "Hey does Aelita know how you secretly feel about her yet?"

Odd blushed, "No! And Jeremie doesn't either, so let's keep it that way!"

Ulrich crossed his arms, "Hey it was you who pushed Yumi and I to get together you know. Now it's my turn to help you out."

Odd narrowed his eyes, "Okay one, you know you and Yumi would have gotten together without my help. Two, Jeremie is head over heels for Aelita remember? Meaning I can't tell anyone how I feel, besides you. I swear Ulrich if you tell anyone---"

Ulrich sighed, "Don't worry Odd, you know you can trust me." Ulrich reached over and grabbed Odd. He then gave him a big nuggie and said, "Come on we're like brothers!"

Odd pulled away, "Hey my love awaits."

Ulrich laughed, "You're even sarcastic to youself."
