Today I figured I should update here since I didn't yesterday and started a new story so I thought I would be nice and do this for you guys, my b-day was yesterday so I have tons of time on my hands..so here ya go srry if it's short

Words couldn't express what Yumi was feeling right then, she could feel the hot tears flowing down her face but she couldn't even move her hands to wipe them away. She felt numb but happy at the same time.

"Ulrich." she quietly whispered.

Ulrich could hear the words coming out of his mouth but he didn't quit understand them.

"Yumi, I've missed you so much. Why haven't you been by earlier? I'm sorry this is happening I should have gone to the police the minute you were out of the hospital but I was more concerned about you and having you safe. I know it's only been a week but it feels like centuries. Oh Yumi I've missed you so much." Ulrich managed to choke out even though small tears were forming in his eyes.

Yumi finally found her senses after hearing Ulrich talk, "Ulrich I've missed you as well. I'm sorry I wasn't here earlier but I've just been in denial. I didn't think you would get out of jail for at least a year and didn't have any hope, but then Odd, Aelita, and Jeremy brought me to my senses and now I'm here. I'll be here the whole time throughout this whole ordeal, I promise."

Ulrich looked deep into Yumi's tear soaked eyes, he couldn't stand the space between them anymore. Ulrich quickly reached under the rectangular cut in the plastic wall and grabbed Yumi's hand. He lowered his head so he could rub her hand on his cheek. Yumi watched in awe at Ulrich. She let her fingers glide along his soft skin and feel his hair, she was in heaven even though she couldn't feel his body warmth next to her this was good enough.

Ulrich looked up and smiled at Yumi once he had straightened up in his chair, Yumi's hand in his, his thumb rubbing up and down on her hand.

"Ulrich I have everything figured out if we can get the doctor bills from when I was at the hospital and the testimony from my doctor at that time you'll be out before the hour is even over." Yumi said as she too smiled. It felt like a huge lump that was in her throat since Ulrich had been arrested was now lifted, a certain glow seemed to radiate off of her.

Ulrich bent down and kissed Yumi's hand, "My heroine."

Yumi blushed at the simple act of affection, she felt like she were fifteen again and her and Ulrich had just told each other how they felt for the first time.

Suddenly a loud beeping noise rang through the room, Ulrich and Yumi both looked around confused.

Suddenly a intercom came on above their heads, "Mr. Stern, Ms. Ishiyama your time is up. Please us the exits nearest you." an officers voice rang through the room.

Yumi looked at Ulrich, her face full of worry and disappointment, "No, not already."

Ulrich squeezed Yumi's hand and held on tight, "It's ok Yumi my hearing is scheduled for Thursday which is in two days. Get ahold of the doctor and tell when the court date is. Then go and get my check book and the bills from the hospital." Ulrich looked up and smiled at Yumi who's eyes once again became tearful, "And never forget Yumi, I love you."

Ulrich squeezed Yumi's hand once more, Yumi whipped away the warm tears that began to fall. She blew Ulrich and kiss and slowly stood up. Ulrich did the same and walked over to the room's exit as did Yumi. Before both left they waved at each other and blew kisses, they knew in their hearts they would be together again. Soon.

Yumi quickly walked down the jail hall, her tears stopped. She wasn't upset anymore. She felt a new hope that couldn't be ruined by no one else. She and Ulrich would be back together again. Soon.
