Chapter 9
Ulrich's POV
I lay on my bed, headphones over my ears, listening to the music and nodding my head along with the beat. Odd was supposed to be meeting me here so we could go hang out somewhere off campus, but I'm guessing he picked up some girl and decided to go along without me. I didn't mind; I was exhausted. I simply continued listening to the music, closing my eyes and leaning back on my pillow. So tired...
I heard a gentle knocking at my door. I pulled my earphones off my ears to hear the person's reaponse as I asked, "Who is it?" An oddly familiar giggling came from the other side of the door. A girl's giggling.
I pulled off my headphones, tossing them on my bed as I stood up from my bed and approached the door. A pair of pearl gray eyes followed mine as I opened the door. My jaw dropped slightly. The girl had a thin line of black eyeliner beneath her eyes, her cheeks and skin looking perfect even though I somehow knew she was wearing no makeup on them. Her hair was out of its usual straight ponytail over her shoulder, but was loose and curly.
Yumi never left her hair curly.
She was dressed differently too. You always see Yumi in non-revealing clothes, despite her perfect body, like sweatshirts and baggy pants. She was wearing very short pajama shorts, and a tank top that revealed a small strip of skin above her shorts.
Holy shit.
She laughed at my slightly awed expression again, her perfect pink lips approaching mine. Before I knew what was happening her lips were upon mine. My eyes shot open.
Yumi... was kissing me? Yumi? My heart was almost bursting out of my chest. I had never felt like this... around any girl, let alone Yumi.
Just as I shut my eyes and began kissing her back, I faintly heard Odd's voice coming from somewhere near. I ignored it and continued kissing her. "ULRICH!" he shouted, his voice getting louder and closer.
"Go away..." I mumbled against Yumi's lips, wrapping my arms around her and pulling her tightly against me to make sure she wouldn't leave me.
"ULRICH!" Odd's voice was suddenly in my ear, screaming.
"What?" I asked confusedly as I suddenly shot straight up in bed. My headphones were still on my ears, pumping music into my ears and throughout my body. Wait... if I had never taken my headphones off... then Yumi had never come. I had just fallen asleep.
"You okay?" Odd asked, an eyebrow cocked. I realized I was a little shaky. I wasn't sure if I felt relieved or disappointed. A mixture of both.
"Yeah... fine." I rubbed my head, standing up to get out of my daze. Odd shrugged at me, said something about a girl, and left. How shocking.
I sat back down on my bed. What was up with that dream? I don't feel that way about Yumi... do I?
No way, don't even think about it. You don't like Yumi. You hate her. She hates you.
Oh yeah? I asked the voice in my head. Prove it.
As if someone heard my thoughts, I heard a familiar knock on my door. I opened the door, half expecting to wake up from another dream when I saw Yumi standing there again. But this time was different... she had more eyeliner on, her hair was in it's usual pony tail, and she was wearing baggy, loose clothes. Her eyes weren't happy, but malicious.
"Your turn to take care of it," she said barely even looking at me as she threw a doll at me. I caught the doll despite my daze, my eyes going in and out of focus on my surroundings. Thank god for having reflexes from soccer.
"Isn't it the girl's job to take care of it?" I asked automatically, not even thinking about what I was saying. The retreating Yumi slowly turned to face me, anger flickering in her eyes. "Excuse me?" Crap.
Everyone knew you couldn't say something sexist to Yumi... or the guys knew at least. Even if it was the slightest bit sexist. Guys knew Yumi had muscle. Not like the noticable, bulgy kind, but the kind that made her stronger than almost all the girls at high school and even a lot of the guys.
I felt myself come out of my daze as she kicked my shin hard, making me stumble back into my room and catching me off balance. She raised her foot again, and I knew where it would come in contact next... I could almost feel the pain between my legs already.
I lept out of the way, holding my hands up in surrender. "I'm sorry, Yumi, I'm sorry!" She looked a little confused, like she expected me to yell at her. Just a few hours ago, I would've.
Her eyes raised to mine, and I felt my gaze lock into hers. I couldn't help it, I couldn't look away. One of her eyebrows lifted slightly. "Just take care of Humphrey, okay?"
She left without another word, not bothering to wait for an answer. My eyes followed her as she left my room, watching her graceful step. I closed the door behind her, and groaned, throwing the stupid doll onto Odd's bed. What kind of a name was Humphrey anyway?!
My head hurt. Something was seriously wrong with me. Could you get brain damage somehow from not getting enough sleep? A brain damage that would completely disorder your thoughts?
I fell into my bed fully dressed, exhausted, but not being able to fall asleep. But no matter what I thought about, or how hard I tried to think of something else, one thing wouldn't leave my mind.
Yumi Ishiyama.

Jeremie's POV
I didn't want to hold out much longer like this... people snickering and talking about me and Herve being gay behind my back, all the talk about me possibly getting a tongue peircing... how gross is that? I would never go that far!
Of course, I would've been able to live with all the talk behind my back before, but since Aelita had decided to start avoiding me and Odd wouldn't even talk to me anymore, I felt that everything was hopeless. As pathetic as this is, I felt like curling up into a little ball on the floor and dieing.
Odd and Aelita walked by me, probably on their way to the cafe just off of campus or something. Jealousy and rage flickered through me. They had been hanging out together a lot lately, and it was getting on my nerves. Aelita always was laughing with him... always so happy...
I was about to look away, a stinging in my eyes, when I noticed the direction they were walking in. It looked they they were headed to the Kadic gates, like they were sneaking out. Together. Odd and Aelita, together. Friends, and possibly even more.
Part of my mind began thinking of schemes to get Odd away from my Aelita, to get the two apart. Another part of my mind went in overdrive, coming to the realization that Aelita wasn't mine, and she didn't want to have anything to do with me. The beautiful Aeilta, with her bright pink hair and vibrant green eyes, her optomistic and ecstatic mood, the best thing that had ever happened to me, was gone.
I sulked to a place deep in the forest where I knew I was out of sight from the rest of Kadic, sinking down to sit at the base of a thick tree.
What had I done?
