~*~ Getting Comfortable ~*~

After Aelita and the boys had finally snuck Yumi back in Aelita's dorm they had to find out what to do about clothes and bathing issues her since Yumi still looked a complete mess

Odd sighed and plopped himself on Aelita's bed exhausted. "Now what?"

Jeremie rubbed the back of his head no really sure what to do. I mean what do you do with a runaway girl and hiding her at your school? "Yeah we can't leave her like that."

"I might have some clothes in her size." Aelita said and went to search in her closet.

Ulrich stood up. "Well she has some pretty bad cuts so I'm gonna go get the first aid kit from our dorm. Be back soon." And he left.

Yumi turned to watch Aelita search in her closet and watched as she pulled out a pink outfit. Wayyyy too pink for Yumi's taste.

"How about this?" She said brightly. Yumi stared and made some faces but she didn't want to be rude.

Aelita giggled. "It's ok Yumi you don't look like a pink girl anyway." Yumi smiled relieved. "What about this?" She held up a white tank top and black fuzzy pajama shorts. "Just for tonight. We'll pick something out for you tomorrow to wear to school."

Yumi smiled and nodded. "Better. Thank's Aelita." She said and turned to Odd and Jeremie who were still in the room. "This is all really nice of all of you but you don't have to do this just for me."

Jeremie smiled comfortingly. "It's ok Yumi we want to help you."

"Yeah we could use another girl in our gang." Odd joined in and winked playfully making Yumi blush. "Especially Ulrich."

Yumi sighed sadly. "I don't see why though. Besides you all could get hurt in the end." She said. Odd rolled his eyes smiling and Yumi just shrugged.

"Ok girls it's getting late I'm off to bed." Jeremie said stretching. Odd yawned and stood up.

"Yeah me too. Night girls." Odd said and him and Jeremie waved goodbye.

Yumi and Aelita waved back and smiled. "Night."

After a few minutes Ulrich finally came back in the room and Aelita left to go take her shower for the night. He went to go sit by Yumi but she just scooted away.

Ulrich saddened and looked at Yumi. "You ok Yumi? Is it me?"

Yumi looked at his sad face and immidiately felt gulity. He just wanted to help her. He was the one who found her in the first place. "No I'm sorry Ulrich it's not you just something that's been happening to me for a while now."

Ulrich nodded and together they sat in Aelita's dorm in an awkward silence. Soon Ulrich heard some footsteps coming down the hall.

"Aelita must be back." And just as he said that Aelita came back in a pink nightgown with her hair still slightly wet.

Aelita smiled at the two. "Ok Yumi you can take a shower now since all the girls are gone."

Yumi nodded slowly and left to go to the girl's bathroom. Aelita turned to look at Ulrich who had been watching Yumi with an intense stare the whole time. "Something interest you Ulrich?" She said in a playful tone.

Ulrich jerked out of his daze and chuckled. "Haha very funny Aelita. How can I like a girl who doesn't even trust me?"

Aelita smirked. "That's the thing though. You do like her even though she doesn't trust you."

Ulrich rolled his eyes. "Ok yeah I do like her but what horrible stuff could she have gone through to not trust men at all?"

Aelita frowned slightly. "I know, the poor girl. Maybe as time goes on she'll learn to trust us and tell us what happened." Ulrich nodded and soon Yumi walked through the door in the tank top and pajama shorts cleaned of blood and sat on the opposite bed from Aelita. "Feel better?" Aelita asked.

Yumi smiled. "Yes much, thank you."

"I'm gonna have to take care of those cuts Yumi, is that ok?" Ulrich said calmly and Yumi whimpered and looked to Aelita who nodded reasurring her. Yumi sighed and lifted her shirt for Ulrich revealing bruises, scars and infected cuts. Ulrich's blood boiled in anger. Who could do such terrible things to this beautiful girl?! While he cleaned her cuts and wrapped them in bandages. "Yumi..who.."

Yumi looked ashamed and wouldn't look at him. "Don't ask Ulrich...I can't." Ulrich nodded and stood up to leave. "Thanks for helping me Ulrich."

Ulrich smiled warmly at her. "Sure thing Yumes." Yumi went under the covers and yawned. She tilted her head to Ulrich confused.

"Yumes?"

Ulrich nodded and chuckled. "Yeah just a little nickname I made for you." Yumi smiled warmly and closed her eyes starting to fall asleep. But before sleep overcame her she felt two soft lips kiss her on her forehead and a door closing. She gasped softly and felt her forehead and smiled.

Maybe not all men are bad...
