Chapter 4: Day off

It is the last day before they are sent to the Lyoko Championship; Ulrich seems to be a bit distant from Yumi for this last week and if it wasn't for their training it looks like Yumi and Ulrich didn't spend any time at all together and would just disappear some of the day.

Now it is high noon on a Sunday, they are taking their day off to the fullest extent by just lying around, but at the moment, all besides Ulrich is at the lunch room as Odd says with a larger amount of food in front of him than usual. "I just got up five minutes ago, now I can have breakfast and lunch at the same time."

"Seriously Odd, do you only think of your stomach?" Yumi asks.

"Nope, I also think of what goes into it," Odd replies as he laughs at his lame joke.

"What are we going to do with you Odd?" Aelita asks.

"Well, even though I know it is our day off. We should go over some strategies," Jeremy brings up.

"Come on Jeremy," Odd replies, as he stops eating at the moment. "We will be fine. Let's just deal with it when it happens."

"Besides, don't you think Ulrich should be here if we are going to discuss stuff like this?" Yumi asks.

"Where is gloomy anyway? When I woke up he wasn't in his bed and his cell phone is turned off so I can't get a hold of him," Odd adds.

"He has been disappearing a lot this last week, I wonder where he has been heading off to?" Aelita thinks allowed to her friends.

Now with Ulrich as he is in Sissy's room, she is giving him a backrub with his shirt off as she says to him. "See Ulrich, I told you you would like the backrub."

"I know Sissy I know, you have been telling me that everyday this week," Ulrich replies as his face relaxes when Sissy presses a spot on his back.

She giggles at him.

This has to be my best plan yet to spend time with Ulrich. Now I just need to ask him out.

"So Ulrich, do you like spending time with me?" She asks.

"Well, you are not as spoiled as I thought you were," He replies as she pouts.

"Very funny Ulrich!"

He then chuckles at her response as he sees her alarm clock on her table. "I got to get going, my friends are probably wondering where I am."

Then as he was putting his shirt back on, Sissy thinks.

I better do it now, because I won't see him for a while."

Then right before he was at the door, Sissy asks. "Ulrich, could you do something for me?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"I would love to go to the movies with you and to that carnival that just opened up."

A nervous look appeared on the young boys face as he replied. "I don't really know..."

But before he could say another word, she added. "Please Ulrich, I have done so much for you and your team these few weeks, and you will be leaving for the Tournament early in the morning so I won't be able to say goodbye. So could you just do me this small favor?"

He then looks at the clock as it changes to twelve-fifteen and replies. "Sure Sissy, let's go."

"Really," the young girl response with a large smile on her face as she asks. "You really mean it!"

"Yeah, but I will meet you at the theater, I need to go talk to my team first."

"Ok, I will be sure to pick a movie we will both enjoy," She then rushes out of the room and as soon as she is out of the door and it closed behind her, she makes an arm gesture to show how glad she is.

Now at twelve-twenty, Ulrich meets the rest in the lunch room. "Hey guys," He announces as he walks up to their table.

"Where have you been, Odd has almost cleaned out the cafeteria," Aelita jokes as he sees his roommate still eating.

"Sorry, I just had a few things of my own to take care of," Ulrich replies.

"Well sit down and eat with us," Yumi says as she pats an open seat next to her.

"Well I'm not that hungry, I was just going to tell you guys that you probably won't see me the rest of the day."

"Why would that be Ulrich?" Jeremy asks.

"I just want to take the fullest extent of our day off, so see you guys later," Ulrich responses as he leave the cafeteria.

"Wonder what he is up to?" Yumi ponders.

"Just let him be, if anyone needs a day off it is defiantly him," Odd replies.

Now the rest of Ulrich's day goes on as we see a few scene of Ulrich with Sissy at the movies, you can tell it is a horror flick as she keeps holding tightly onto Ulrich's arm and looks away from the screen.

Then later after the movie, they are at the carnival as you see them ride a few rides together, the photo booth, more rides, then they enter the hall of mirrors as scenes show them laughing at the strange ways they look, that was until Sissy saw herself in the fat mirror and Ulrich had to hold her back from breaking it.

Now later that night, Yumi is running towards the school exit as she looks at her watch. "I can't believe how late it got so quickly, I just hope my mom and dad don't kill me."

But then all of a sudden, something caught her eye as she hides behind a building and looks out to see Ulrich talking to Sissy.

What is Ulrich doing with Sissy?

The Goth girl thought as she could hear their conversation.

"Thanks for spending the day with me Ulrich, I had a great time today," Sissy said.

"Your welcome, but I also think that this was just what I needed. The Lyoko Championship Trophy is as good as ours."

Sissy then looks away from Ulrich as she asks in a sad tone of voice. "When you come back, would you still want to be friends with me?"

"As long as you don't make fun of my other friends or be a jerk to others, I don't see why that can't be."

"Ulrich, you don't know how happy that makes me feel," she replies. "You don't know how long I have wanted to be able to spend some time with you."

She then goes up closer to him and says. "I also have something for you."

"What is it Sissy?" He asks, as he is a bit shocked from how open Sissy is being to him.

She then puts her hands on his shoulders and kisses him on the lips, and at that same moment, as Yumi is watching this she grabs the left side of her chest tightly.

My chest, it hurts so much. It feels like if my heart is being ripped to shreds.

The girl it black thinks as her eyes water from the sight she is seeing. Being so heartbroken, but unable to look away.

Sissy finally breaks the kiss as Ulrich is a bit stunned from what she did. "For luck," was all she said before she ran off back to her room.

Ulrich finally snapped out of it as he thinks.

Sissy just kissed me, but do I have the same feelings for her as she does for me?

He then walks back off to his room, as Yumi runs out of the school in tears.

To Be Continue
