Hey People! Sorry that I haven't updated lately, I have been really busy. I have been hanging out with my friends Epic Nerd, I like pie, and Momo. When we all get together, we really have some fun.

Anyways, I hope you like this chapter, it's a bit of a shocker. But READ!

Ps. I do not own any Code Lyoko stuff. Just Dannie!

Chapter 6

'Spat spat spat," sang the rain as it hit my window hard as I looked out through my window.

I sat on my bed with the lights off, cuddled up in a ball, hugging my knees to my chest with a blanket wrapped around me. The next song in my zune came on. Hello by Evanescence.

I slowly moved my eyes away from the window to see the time. It had been 15 minutes since Ulrich had left my room, leaving the time 6:30.

I then re-adjusted my eyes back to the window, watching the rain again.

I had always loved the rain. The sound on the roof of any building I was in always relaxed me. Then the way the air smelled when it stopped was amazing. It always smelt crystal clear. And when it would rain lightly, I would run out and spin around with my head bent all the way back and my eyes closed to feel them splatter on my face. But my favorite part about the rain is that it always brought back old memories for some reason. That's why I sat there, looking at my window, going through memories; or as I call them rain dreams.

A knock was heard on my door, taking me away from my sweet land of distant rain dreams.

I slowly stood up and wrapped my arms around me, my hands still holding pieces of the blanket. I walked over and stuck out one hand and opened the door. I slowly looked out to see a smiling Odd.

I smiled at how happy he always was. It just seemed like nothing could bring him down.

"Ready for breakfast?" Odd asked.

"Is that all you can ever think about in that huge head of yours? Food!" I asked while I lightly tapped his forehead. This earned me a laugh from him and a nod of the head.

"Well, if that is all you ever think about, I thought you would already be at the cafeteria. Any ways, I am ready. Let me just turn my zune off and set down my blanket," I spoke as I slowly turned around and walk over to my bed.

Odd followed me in from the hallway. "Ulrich wanted to go already but I tolled him we had to come get you first," he spoke.

My body immediately froze at the mention of Ulrich's name. "You mean he's here?" I asked as stiff as a rock.

"Yep. He's waiting in the hallway," Odd said.

A sigh escaped my lips. I really didn't want to see him again. Not after this morning. The memory of me falling and him catching me came right into my head. I had felt so weak when that happened. Weaker than I have ever felt, and I hated that I had felt that way, I hated how I had over done it yesterday, I hated how he hated me from the begging, I hated how I got so angry so easily just at the sound of his name, and so much more. All of this hatred just led back to one person, just one single person that could change my attitude in less then a second. Ulrich!

But that only brought me to wonder that if he had been nice to me when we first met, what would have happened? Would we have been great friends, or would we still have ended up like the way we are now.

Odd seeming to notice my silence asked, "Are you ok Dannie?" I was quickly somewhat brought out of the twists and turns in my mind to realize that Odd was still in the room waiting for me.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I replied as I walked over to my bed and turned off my zune and set my blanket down.

"Great! Now let's go!" Odd spoke as he grabbed my hand and led me out the door as I was still slowly coming back from the trip to inside my mind. I was completely out though when we rounded the corner to meet up with Ulrich.

"Ready?" asked Odd to Ulrich. Ulrich gave a slight nod, not turning his gaze to me.

"OK!" Spoke Odd as he let go of my hand and raced down the hallway.

"ODD! YOUR SUPPOSE TO WALK WITH YOU FRIENDS!" I yelled after him as I started to walk down the hallway.

"WELL, IF YOU WEREN'T SO SLOW, THEN MAYBE I WOULD WALK WITH YOU!" He yelled back before he opened the door to the building and running out of it.

I shook my head as I stopped, knowing that this was typical Odd.

I was then taken aback as I realized he had left me and Ulrich alone. This probably won't end up well.

I looked over at him to see him looking straight ahead, as if I wasn't even there. I just shrugged my shoulders and walked off, not really wanting to say anything to get into a fight.

I then heard footsteps. I turned around to see Ulrich walking behind me. I slowed down so we could walk next to each other, not really wanting to walk alone.

We walked on in silence though the hall. As we reached the door he stepped forward and opened it. Ulrich then motioned for me to go though, surprising me. I mumbled a little thanks as I walked out the door to be met with the sound of the rain hitting the ground. I closed my eyes and soaked in the sound.

After a minute, I cracked opened my eyes enough to see out but for no one to know my eyes where opened. I saw Ulrich standing next to me, starring at me with some look in his eyes I had never seen from him before. I was puzzled at this. I kept trying to read them, trying to know what he is thinking. Then it hit me. He was looking at me with care.

"What you looking at?" I asked nicely to see his reaction.

His face didn't change at all. He just kept the same look. "Nothing," was his reply.

"It doesn't look like it," I spoke as I opened my eyes all the way and turned to face him.

"I just want to know if you're ok. You where really stiff this morning. That's all," he spoke, concern in his voice.

"Didn't you do that this morning?" I asked.

"Well… We ended it badly, so I wasn't sure you where telling the truth or not," He said as he turned away.

I couldn't believe it. Ulrich really did care if I was ok or not.

"Do you really care?" I asked him, wonder in my voice.

Ulrich turned around and looked into my deep blue eyes. All I could see in his chocolate brown ones was concern. "Of course I do," He said.

"Then why are you always rude to me?" slipped out quickly before I could stop it.

"To tell you the truth, I really don't know why. Whenever Odd tells me about you, it just sounds like we'll be great friends, but then when I'm around you, stuff just slips out of my mouth," He spoke.

"Do you think from here on out you could stop 'stuff' from slipping out of your mouth?" I asked with air quotes. This gave me a little laugh from Ulrich, which made me smile as I looked deeper into his eyes.

"I guess I could," He spoke while a smile spread across his lips.

"Great!" I said as I did a little happy dance. This caused him to laugh even more.

"What? You don't like my happy dance?" I asked as I ached hurt.

"No. It just gives me a bigger clue to why you're friends with Odd," He said.

"Well, I kept trying to stay away but Kiwi was just too darn cute!" I spoke through laughs. Ulrich soon joined in but calmed down right away.

"Friends?" he asked as he stuck out his hand for me to shake. I looked down at it with a look of 'what are you suppose to do?'. I then looked back up at his face. I then moved forward and wrapped my arms around him in a hug. He seemed a little surprised at this but then lightened up and wrapped his arms around me to hug me back. We soon let go a stepped away from each other.

"I'm more of the hugging type," I spoke as I looked up at him.

"I guess you are," Ulrich spoke with a little smile, "Now let's get to breakfast before Odd eats all the food."

I nodded my head as I turned around to walk under the covered sidewalk to the cafeteria with my new friend. Hopefully it will stay that way.

Shocking? Well I hoped you like. It is not over yet though. A lot of things are still going to happen! But I want edvice, it always helps, so please reveiw!
