Yay, another chapter, and yay, more reviews. Yay again because they were all good. Well, I don't have much to say (again), so you get to move right along.

Disclaimer: I'd rather watch Code Lyoko, so its obvious I don't own it. Why you ask? For the first part, I don't have to fear screwing up. Second part, Im not rich, so I cant buy it.

Claimer: I love Aelita...opps, did I type that out loud.

Chapter 6: Confessions

:Odd's POV:

I wonder what Yumi wanted to talk to me about, what ever it was Im sure that is was important, especially if she knew she was going to be interrupting lunch to do so. I hope it doesn't have anything to do with Ulrich, Im not the best when it comes to comforting people about their love issues, but regardless, Im her friend so I must help anyway I can. Wow, listen to me, Im getting ahead of myself, maybe I should see where this is going before I think too much.

"So Yumi, what did you want to talk about." I asked a little hesitantly.

"Lets sit down first."

Yumi was getting nervous, I could just tell by the look in her eye. Looks like I might be right after all. I'm just gonna have to remember to stay confident. Listen to me, Im getting ahead of myself again. I gotta slow down.

"Is everything all right Yumi?" I asked as tear started to form in her eye.

"Oh Odd." She said trying not to cry. "I think Im in love with Jeremy."

"What?" I gasped. A bad feeling formed telling me that this was true after seeing the kiss, but who would have guessed it unless she had said it herself. Something told me this wasn't going to be easy, but I was able to help before. I know that I can do it again.

"I don't know what to do. Should I tell Ulrich, but if I do, Im afraid he'll be angry. And what about Jeremy, how am I supposed to tell him how I feel. Its just that, Aelita would be devastated."

By this time, tears ran down her face like a faucet, and I felt horrible having to sit here and watch her cry.

"Yumi, its ok. It may seem hard, but really its all just inside your head." I tried my best to comfort her to the best of my abilities. "If you want, I could tell Ulrich for you."

"No, not that!" Yumi cried.

"Something told me you wouldn't like that. But one thing is for sure, you can't leave things the way they are. If you do, it will only become worse. I know it seems hard now, but later on you'll be glad you did."

"I know Odd, but it's still hard." She said, still sobbing.

"Im sure everything will be alright. I don't think Ulrich will be mad, he's not that type." I patted her on the back softly.

"It's not just that Odd. What about Aelita and Jeremy? What if Jeremy doesn't feel the same about me, and even if he does, it would break Aelita's heart. I don't want to break them up just for this."

"No matter what happens Yumi, just remember this. We are all friends, and even if things seem to be a little confusing and mixed up, nothing can break that friendship."

"Thank you Odd."

She smiled and gave me a hug, and from that moment, I knew that I had done something right. But maybe now was not the time to tell her what I had to say. But then again, I might not get another chance.

"Umm, Yumi?"

"Yes Odd?"

"I have some thing I need to tell you."

I was getting nervous now. Sweat began to form on my forehead. I wasn't sure if I should be doing this now.

"I'm...I'm in love with Aelita."

"Heh. So it finally happened." She surprisingly spoke with her usual tone.

"What?"

"You fell in love you big goof."

"Heh, yeah. Hey, your not confused or surprised, and don't want to make fun of me, or anything?"

"Nope, I could tell from our battles that you were falling for her. When ever you landed on her, you took a while to get off." She smiled.

"I see." I began to blush. "But like you said, I don't want to break Aelita and Jeremy up just for me."

"I know. Looks like were both stuck in a similar situation." She said as her voice resumed a more worried tone.

"Yumi?" I spoke up after a few moments.

"Yes?

"I don't think we should tell the others yet."

"I know, but we have to do something. If we don't, we'll all just stay mad and confused."

"I know that too, but you know, just till the timing feels right."

"Good point, I just wish I knew when it was."

"Me too Yumi, me too."

Ok, that was too long a wait and too short a chapter in my opinion. Im sorry about that everyone, but I've been sick, and have had writer's block like hell. I should be getting back to the regular routine. And with a little luck (and after cleaning the kitchen floor), I might get started on the next one tonight. Like I always say, quality over quantity.
