Changes
Jeremie and Aelita sit in the courtyard during lunch, they've finished all of their classes for the day and just enjoying the day.
"Hey Jeremie I was thinking why don't we go clubbing tonight. I've been meaning to listen to other mixes for some time so I can brush up. We could invite everyone?" Aelita asked as she downed her chicken burger.
"I don't see why not, sure, I think it would also benefit Ulrich and Yumi. He's been dying to ask her out for so long." Jeremie sighed laughing.
"That boy still?" Aelita gasped
"Yup, still that whole opera mess going on between them. Last I heard Yumi was going out with this boy from the university and Ulrich stayed sulking in his room." He told her and then drank what was left of his soda.
"Well I'll call Odd and he'll get a hold of everyone for us." Aelita said happily.
The two finished their meals and left for their dorms to do their studying before the night. Of course on such short notice, not everyone was willing at first to go with the whole plan but they reluctantly went with it. Not like they all got out all the time and when they wanted.
Aelita put on a pink tank top like something Sissy would wear and a pear of leg tight jeans which really attracted Jeremie. He of course wore a black T shirt which gave view to his masculinity and green slacks.
He walked in on his darling when she was checking her outfit out in front of the mirror. His heart speed up seeing the attractive women, so he snuck up behind her and caught her in his arms playfully.
"Ohhh…you scared me!" Aelita told him as she put her hand to her chest.
"I'm sorry, but your just so ravishing in that dress." He grinned to her.
She giggled and soon felt herself captured by his lips, as he stood behind her he let his hands roam to her hips and legs. She moaned at the treatment and even chuckled some more between the kisses.
"Okay, okay that's enough Jeremie. We should save our energy for the club you know." She told him smiling with dreamy eyes.
"Sorry again, couldn't help myself. I got the keys lets go on and head out." He jingled the keys in the air as his love left for the bathroom for her purse.
At the Club
The two left in Jeremie's RAV4 Limited V6 and picked up Odd and Kila, since they didn't have any vehicle of their own. The drive was enjoyable, going through the busy streets and nightlife of the town, Odd brought up the newest additions to the club they were going to. Aelita learned of the new equipment in use and the finest music records available to the DJ, she looked forward to the lustrous music to be played.
As they neared the club parking lot, they saw Ulrich's, Guerrmo's, and Nathan's vehicles already there.
"Well looks like we'll be late to the party." Jeremie sighed taking the vehicle in.
"Ahh no worries Einstein we still have nighttime to party all night long!" Odd cheered out loud.
"Odd, can't you call me something else besides Einstein? It's been what several years since those old times." Jeremie said irritated.
"Well I guess it is time to give you a new nickname, give me some time and I'll get an idea." Odd smirked getting out of the car.
"Ya, like he ever does think." Jeremie replied under his breath.
The four paid for the entrance and went inside, there they met up with everyone at their table to the right side of the club.
"Hey how's it hanging!" Guerrmo rose and greeted them.
A couple of minutes worth of exchanging greetings and they sat down.
"So what's the plan for tonight?" Ulrich asked looking to the dance floor, Yumi came with her date for the evening. A young man named Davis Glandever with dark hair and a mature looking face.
"Well we dance till our legs fall off and we head off to something like one of the soda resturants and eat." Odd answered rubbing his stomach with eager patience.
They all willingly agreed and let the night run on its course. Colorful strobe lights and loud techno dance music envenomed the gang with the urge to move. Though the floor was crowded they still managed to get down and out with it.
Jeremie and Aelita looked like any other couple out there in the sea of bodies under a rainbow, they danced explicitly as well. Same went for everyone else besides Ulrich and Nathan, who still sat at their table.
"So how's all been?" Ulrich asked never taking his eyes off of Yumi.
"Eh, lonely and productive, just the way I like it." He said not even caring.
"Lonely and productive? You still love Aelita don't you." Ulrich really was referring to him and Yumi.
"That's all in the past for me, I can't match up to him nor do I care to fight for so long. Hell if fate has it in for me then so be it." Nathan said shrugging his shoulders and started to sip his virgin martini.
"Why?" Ulrich seemed to see some of himself in the matter.
"I loved her sure when we were still in junior high school and in high school. But all I ever cared about was for her to be happy, it seems to be effective." Nathan told him looking around.
"So all you care about I whether she's happy? But what about yourself, don't you feel empty and sad inside?" Ulrich noticed Yumi getting really close to that man he so wished it was him.
"Ya, there is always something missing within me yes. But when you've lived the life I've had, it really is only a small addition to the dampness. Boy I sure wish I could just tell her the things I want to say to her, but what will it mean in comparison to Jeremie? He seems more then fit to go out with her let alone I." Nathan fiddled with his empty glass cup.
"So you wouldn't even try if you wanted to, to tell her such things and hope for the best? Or just see your love of your life disappear with someone else." Ulrich actually tore his gaze from Yumi to see the mans response.
"I'm not the pursuing type unless I know she is in love with me as well. Other then that, I'd rather sulk till another girl comes into my life. I say fuck love man, you know what I'm out of here!" Nathan slammed his glass cup on the table, breaking it, and left.
Ulrich thought of the conversation he just had, if he continued the way he was then he'd end up losing the only girl who actually knew him and that they shared the same likes and things. Only to become a bitter man without no remorse, he gave it even deeper thought. Though in the process he picked up his friends broken martini glass before the others arrived and came to a conclusion. Before they would go to a restaurant, he had to tell her, tell her he loved her and wanted to be at her side. The only problem for him was if she would accept his declaration.
It was an hour before the rest of the gang actually came off the dance floor. Ulrich saw them covered with sweat and breathing hard like they just ran a triathlon. They all talked coming up to the table about the music and the bad songs. Ulrich got jealous when Yumi's date kissed her on the cheek, but kept his cool as everyone sat down.
"Oh wait, we're missing someone?" Odd was the first to notice.
"Ya, lets see……Nathan's gone?" Terra said after she counted.
"Oh well his loss." Jeremie cut the subject, "Man can you believe that girl behind us groped me?"
"Errrr…I was about this close to breaking her arm off!" Aelita frowned as the others chuckled.
"That happens sometimes on the floor, you gotta watch out for the sharks really." Yumi's date said.
Outside
Nathan got inside his Izuzu Hombre and began to pull out of his street parking. He felt depressed again and staying with the others would only make it worse. His truck barely pulled out and was half way on the street when someone's SUV crashed into the left front of him, leaving a good sized impact mark as both vehicles stopped. Nathan was shaken but nothing more, only his pride in the once untainted truck was harmed.
"Oh no….oh no no…Son of a Bitch!" He got out and saw the damage.
The SUV's driver got out and started to see the damage, she was in as much shock as well.
"Noooooooo, my beautiful green truck…." Nathan cried touching the damaged area.
"I'm going to have to see some papers so I can send you the bill for this!" a females voice shouted out.
"This is a 20 Mph zone you stupid bitch! You were going 40 in that piece of crap and I had the all clear to go too!" He pounded on the hood with his fists, "Now my insurance is going to kill me."
"You, I just bought this piece of crap. Hey face me when I'm talking to you!" the woman yelled as she turned the young man around.
She froze upon seeing his face, like cupid had just struck her with two of his arrows.
"You better have a good lawyer because I'm gonna…" he looked at her as well and felt the same speechlessness.
It was the way both of them looked to each other that seemed to feel like love at first sight. The young woman had short hair with two long side bangs to her collar bone, black hair as his, green eyes just as dark and lovely as Aelitas', and her body was perfect.
"You're the driver of that car?" he asked staring at her.
"Yes." She replied.
"Wanna go to my dorm to work out the information?" his heart spoke for him.
"Sure." She nodded as they shook hands and left to their vehicles.
Back Inside
Hours more passed midnight and the gang decided it was time to leave, though Ulrich kept his promise to himself. So as they exited he asked Yumi to step aside with him.
"So what is it you want Ulrich?" she asked.
"Yumi I…" he found it hard to say it, "Yumi there's something I've been wanting to tell you for so long."
