/--Yay for you guys, a totally random update-! Short, but it supports the idea for my next chapter. Enjoy.--/

Let sat at her dressing table, attempting for the second time to get her eyeliner on correctly. A loud knocking at the door sent her hand in the wrong direction, sending a long, messy black line down her face. With a sigh she walked over to the door, rubbing off the mess. When she opened the door, Sissi barged right in, sitting on Lex's unmade bed, smiling.

"Um yeah…who are you?" Lex asked, still standing at the door. "You must of herd about me! I'm Sissi. " Sissi said in her annoying voice. "Nope, haven't herd of you. So what can you like possibly want?" Sissi wanted to yell at her, but kept cool. "I just wanted to see if you would like to go see a movie this weekend with me if daddy says yes! Or we could go to the mall?" Lex laughed. " No thank you. Can you go now?" Sissi left with a 'humph', stomping down the hallway.

Laughter and splashes filled the pool area the afternoon after school. The whole gang was sitting and talking among themselves about the 5th sector and the information Jeremie and Aelita had gathered. Yumi and Odd were talking about the next Subsonics concert. Ulrich, on the other hand, had his mind on something…else. He watched Lex from across the pool area, sitting down at the edge of the pool, looking down at the water. He shook his head and looked away but then looked back again. He wasn't starting to like Lex…was he? 'No I love Yumi' is what he continued saying over and over in his head. He got up and walked over to Lex, hovering above her. She tilted her head back so she was looking at him, not enough to see his full figure, but just enough to get a little glance of him. "Hey Ulrich! What's up?"

He sat next to her on the poolside, looking at her. She giggled at his stare and they just talked for a while.

"Aw look at Ulrich and Lex, they seem to become good friends right Jeremie?" Aelita said, her voice filled with joy. Jeremie, Aelita, and Odd laughed as they saw Ulrich get pushed into the pool by Lex. "Yeah they are becoming great friends." Everyone watched the two from a distance, except for Yumi, who had become fill with rage and jealousy. She got up and walked over to Ulrich, tapping him on the shoulder. "Ulrich I'm bored, want to hang out outside?" Ulrich really didn't want to leave just yet, but Yumi really wanted to hang. He got out the pool and walked out with Yumi.

The both left the building, but quickly Yumi ran back to where Lex was. "Stay away from Ulrich or I'll kick your ass you hear?" Yumi said in a rude tone. Lex frowned when she heard that and glared sternly at her. "Is that a threat?" Without a word Yumi ran out after Ulrich, leaving Lex angry and confused.

Later that night, Lex was in her dorm, blasting metal louder than you can imagine. She was totally oblivious to the knocking outside her door. The door opened, and Ulrich ran over to the stereo and turned it down. Lex put down the magazine she was reading, her face totally blank. "Ok dude, why'd you do that… I like System Of A Down!" Ulrich plopped down on her bed and Lex continued to read the magazine. "You don't seem like the type of person that reads magazines." Lex look at him out the corner of her eye. "I don't read them, I look at the pictures. People who read magazines are usually people who pretend to be someone or not. Magazines hypnotize the creative thoughts in our mind to thinking something one person thinks is 'cool'." She continued to flip through the magazine and Ulrich looked down, mouthing out the word "Oh".

There was silence for a while until Ulrich said "Can I ask you something?"
