Ulrich followed Yumi into the woods and knelt down behind a bush so no one would see him. Yumi stoped in her tracks as William came walking up to her.
"Yumi im glad you came I didnt think you would." Said William placing his hand under her chin and tilting her chin upwards.
Yumi felt a little akward and pulled back a little bit. "Well what do you want? I cant be here all day Im going to visit my grandparents tomarow in Japan. I still need to finish packing.
"Well Yumi as ive told you Im crazy over you. I love you Yumi!" said William now making his way even closer to Yumi.
Ulrich who was still behind the bush clenched his fist and wished he would have told her first. After everyones warnings about how if he didnt tell first someone else would finaly happened. He felt his heart start to break as her watched a little more.
Yumi stood shocked and in a some what gaze. William placed his arms around her even though she was still backing up.
"William! I..I...I dont..."
"Shhh" wispered William placing a finger on her lips. She was not traped. Yumi couldnt back up any farther because of a tree behind her.
"Ulrich finaly realized that Yumi didnt want to kiss him and that she was scared.
Yumis eyes grew red and she pushed his arm off and let a tear out. "William I dont like you that way. My heart already belongs to someone else!
"Let me guess. Stern. Every since I came here that punk has been in my way ever since. Well I dont care anymore Yumi. Remember when I told you I got kicked out of my old school?"
Yumi let out a little "yea" in bewteen tears.
"Well thats because I was a little to crazy in love!" replied William. He now went in to kiss Yumi.
Ulrich had seen enough torture of him loved one. "Stop It!" shouted Ulrich as he stood up from behind the bush.
Yumi felt a sigh of relief because for once she was happy Ulrich had followed her.
William finaly let go of Yumi and just stared at the younger aged brown haired Stern.
Yumi ran over to Ulrich and told him not to fight because she could see the look of hatred written all over his exspressioning glances.
Ulrich thought he should listen to Yumi and that he would proboley go after him while she was away. Ulrich put his arm around Yumi and offered to walk her back to her house.
"Thanks" mummbled Yumi
Ulrich just smiled and told her it was no big deal.
"And before you start asking anything I dont like him like that. He was only a friend."
The wind started to pick up, lighting could be seen in the distanceittle, and little droplets of water began to fall.
"Blasted storms!" shouted Yumi. She was starting to get a cold shiver since the wind was starting to get stronger.
"Here" said Ulrich as he took off his jacket and placed it on her shoulders. Both of thier faces went slightly pink.
Thunder started to roar and the rain started to become very heavy. Yumis house was only a block away at this point. They started to run and soon took shelter under Yumis porch roof.
"Thanks for walking me home" said Yumi
"More like running you home" joked Ulrich as a crack of lighting hit.
Just them Yumis mom opened the door. "Yumi! Get in this house now! Dont you see the weather!' shouted her mom over another lighitngbolt.
Yumi went in the house as instruced. "And you too" said Yumis mom now talking to Ulrich. "You can stay here until this very noisey storm passes. Normaly I wouldnt allow it but Yumis father is working the night shift. And thank you for walking my daughter home."
If Yumi could she would have screamed at the top of her lungs at how happy she was that her mom told him he could stay until the storm passed and she hoped it would be a long one. They both went up stairs since her mom told Ulrich that he could help Yumi finish packing. Yumi opened her door and sat down on her bed.
"Thanks again for saving me from William." said Yumi with her head down "I was such a fool for not seeing through his ways."
Ulrich went over and sat down by Yumi. "Its ok" they both stood up fast after they realized Ulrich had placed his hand on top of hers.
Yumi went to her closet and took out a half way backed extra large black and pink.
"Wow" laughed Ulrich. "Suprising that you axualy own something thats semi pink!"
Yumi had to laugh at this. She dragged it over and ploped in ontop of her bed. She then unzippered it and went over to her closet once again. This time she pulled out a red and black orental Japenese dress.
"That looks nice" pointed out Ulrich.
"Oh this..." said Yumi placing it in the suitcase. Its a tradition. Everytime I go to see them we always go out for dinner for a night and they make me wear this stupid dress they got me a couple years ago that suprisingly still fits.
"I dont think its stupid looking" mumbled Ulrich.
"Ha! If you saw me in it I bet it would look stupid!
"I think it would look very pretty on you!" giggled Ulrich. He then walked over to the window and watched the pooring rain. "Um Yumi."
"Yea Ulrich" said Yumi who was now semi under her bed looking for the shoes to go with the dress.
"Before in the woods. When you told William your heart already belonged to someone, who would that someone be?"
Yumis face grew hot and red but luckly her head was under the bed still. "Um why would you want to know?" She then stood up with her high healed shoes and put them in the suitcase then zippering it up.
"I dont know just a though." replied Ulrich. "Now what are you looking for?"
Yumi was looking for her diary then no one knew about except her little brother Heroki. "Oh nothing just double checking my room." lied Yumi.
Suddenly if the timing couldnt be anyworse Heroki ran in the room with Yumis diary and started yelling. DEAR DIARY TODAY WHEN ULRICH LOOKED AT ME I FELT MY FACE GO PINK. DEAR DIARY I WONDER IF ULRICH REALY LIKES SISSY, WILL HE EVER KNOW MY TRUE FEELINGS FOR HIM!"
Yums face grew red now with both anger and imbarisement. She chased Heroki out of the room after grabing the diary from his hand with a give me it now look or else ill tell mom She now feared to turn and face Ulrich.
"I guess you want an explalation?" mumbled Yumi still angry with her younder sibling.
Ulrich was still repeating everything he just heard over and over agian in his mind then staped out of his daze. "If you want"
Yumi and Ulrich both walked over to eachother. "Well Ulrich I..."
Yumi wait! "said Ulrich. "I..."
Ulrich Hunny! shouted Yumis mom. Ill drive you back over to the school now. It seems as the storm has passed.
Yumi could have killed her mom for interupting such a perfect moment. "I guess Ill see you when I come back then?" said Yumi with a saddened face. "Sure youll manage on Lyoko?
"Yea were sure." replied Ulrich wishing the storm would have lasted just a few more seconds.
Yumi gave him a hug (like she usualy did) and Ulrich waved good by as he walked out of her room. She could here him walk down the stairs then soon enough herd the car pull away. Heroki entered the room and walked up to Yumi.
"Im sorry"
"I guess its ok." Yumi told her brother. At least he proboley knows now, but does he feel the same way? She thought.
Yumi walked over and opened her window. Her roomed filled with an after rain smell. She sat on her bed and lied her head on her pillow. She watched Heroki leave the room after she told him to set her alarm for 7am since her flight left at 10am. She rolled over on her side then remembered that she was still wearing Ulrichs jacket.
Aww how sweat! Anyways keep in mind the title still the plain part will come in efect soon enough.
