Chapter 4

Secret Revealed.

Ulrich sat in bed looking at his best friends who were crowded around him in his ward. They had been demanding answers and now he just couldn't keep it from them. The problem for him was that Yumi would go into hysterics if she knew the truth. But since he didn't have a choice he decided to start.

"I have an illness which causes my heart to fail and my blood to be infected if it gets put through too much work. Football and sports are alright but anything more and it will get terribly worse. So here I am."

They all stared at Ulrich in disbelief but not in great grief; now it was time for the bad news.

"Since it has gotten so bad I am going to die within a month if I don't get an antidote." Ulrich continued. "Except that there isn't one."

"So you're going to…die?" Odd asked, tears starting to drop.

Ulrich just nodded and Yumi burst into the hysterics Ulrich had predicted. Unfortunately for Ulrich and the rest of the gang, word had gotten around about Ulrich's condition and Sissi came in unannounced and unwanted. Ulrich sighed and wished he was 100 miles away.

"Oh Ulrich dear! How could you not have told me! Remember that we are going out?" Sissi exclaimed trying to trick Yumi, sadly it didn't work and Yumi slapped her. Nobody could believe what had just happened until William came in and didn't seem to notice anyone but Yumi. "Hey Yumi, why don't we go to see a film?"

"Unless you haven't noticed I'm busy here" Yumi replied with a spiteful tone.

William grabbed her and said " I never said you had a choice!"

In the blink of an eye Ulrich lunged out of bed and head butted William because his arms were attached to the machines. William let go of Yumi and fell to the ground holding his now burst open nose.

Sissi took William to a nurse and everybody was left in peace.

It was now a week later and Ulrich had been given a drug that seemed to make him better and he was allowed out of hospital on his own. So he decided to surprise the gang who were out of town, except for Yumi who was at home….alone. Ulrich decided to go see her and give her a huge surprise.

He got to the door and rang the doorbell, he heard footsteps and stuff being moved before Yumi answered the door and had a heart attack. "ULRICH!" She shouted in surprise. Yumi let Ulrich in and they both sat down and had some lemonade. Ulrich opted that they watch TV and Yumi agreed and they both started to watch several programs. It was getting close to night but neither of them were tired, probably due to their hormones racing. It dawned on each of them that they were each alone in a house with the person they loved…alone.

Okay here's the deal folks. I have 2 versions of chapter 5 and I wondered what one the readers would prefer. The 1st option is a lemon which will require a boost in the rating and will be my first lemon.

The 2nd is just a super fluffy chapter.

It's up to you the reviewer to decide. Leave your decision in a review.
