The day had gone by so slow, Odd finished his talking 20 minutes after he had entered the room, Odd left after when he yelled at by Jim to come and clean one of the cafeteria. Ulrich spent the rest of the day in his room laying on his bed listening to music and petting Kiwi and thinking about William once again.
The next day arrived, Ulrich got up and did his normal routine. It was the weekend so there wasn't any classes, Ulrich walked around campus until he spotted the gang in their usual spot by the drink machine, He walked over.
Ulrich sat silently on the bench observing the group, Aelita and Yumi were talking, Odd was talking to Jeremy about a costume change for himself. He looked around wondering when William was going to arrive luckily he didn't have to wonder too long for William had shown up.
"Morning everyone." William greeted before sitting down on the bench next to Ulrich.
Everyone applied except Ulrich, Ulrich glanced at William once in a while, William looked over at the brown-haired boy.
"You know if you take a picture, It would last longer." William whispered.
Ulrich blushed and growled slightly.
"I need two of you to go to Lyoko, Who wants to volunteer to go?" Jeremy asks.
"I will, Jeremy." Ulrich answers.
"Me too." William says.
"No way, I'm not working with him." Ulrich speaks up.
"Ulrich just cooperate this once, Jeremy needs both of you to work together not to argue the time your on Lyoko." Yumi says.
"Fine...Let's get this over..." Ulrich snaps starting to walk off.
Jeremy and William follow leaving Odd, Yumi and Aelita behind at the Drink Machine. The three boys get to the factory, Jeremy goes to his computer and Ulrich and William go down into the scanners.
"This will be quite interesting." William says.
"Whatever." Ulrich snaps.
"Don't be so grumpy, Stern. It's not good for you cute self." William replies.
The scanners close before Ulrich could reply to that, Jeremy scans them and they get transferred to Lyoko, They fall to the ground and they were in the Forest sector.
"What do you need us to do, Einstein?" Ulrich asks walking slow.
"I need you to look scout the area, My laptop said there was an activated tower but I'm not so sure and I didn't want to send Aelita if it was wrong and there was an ambush." Jeremy answers.
Ulrich says nothing and continues walking, William walked behind him. It was completely silent for a while.
"You know Ulrich you have a sexy ass." William says smirking and catching up to him to walk beside him.
"S-Shut up, What the hell were you doing back there watching my ass? Ulrich snaps blushing a deep red.
"Yes, And I have to say I loved the show, Thank you Ulrich." William chimes.
"Just shut up, Dunbar." Ulrich replies storming off.
William chuckles and follows the brown-haired male, They cover every inch of the forest sector, Jeremy orders them to stop at the nearest tower transfer back to Earth.
William and Ulrich arrive to the tower, they stand there while they wait for Jeremy to work his magic only for Jeremy to have to go back to the room to get a CD to update the transfer data which would only take about 10 minutes to get the CD and the update a second.
Ulrich leaned against a tree, William sat on a rock it was dead silent. William sighed before standing up, He stretched and walked over to the brown-haired boy, Ulrich looked over at William.
"Ulrich, Could you just listen to me without snapping at me?" William questions.
"I guess..." Ulrich replies.
"Look...I apologize for acting the way I was. I want you to know that I care about you, not just care I mean I love you." William says.
"I can't be with you William, My friends would hate me and I can't lose them." Ulrich says.
"We can keep it a secret." William answers.
"No." Ulrich replies.
William came closer, He puts both of his hand on each side of Ulrich pinning him to the tree. He captured the stubborn Ulrich's lips with his own, Before Ulrich could kiss back William pulls away.
"Come on, Stern. Don't be stubborn." William says.
"I have to be stubborn." Ulrich replies.
"Please Ulrich, Give it a try." William whisper in Ulrich's ear pleading.
"No I can't." Ulrich says.
"Please..." William begs nipping at his ear lightly.
Ulrich pulls William to him kissing him, William kisses back passionately.
"Hey guys what I miss?" Jeremy questions.
The two pull away quickly, Ulrich coughs slightly.
"N-Not much...No monsters in sight, No tower activated everything is okay here." Ulrich says.
"Okay, Well turns out I can bring you back with the update going." Jeremy says.
He brings them back quickly, Jeremy lets them leave while he stays there to work on the computer. It was now evening, Ulrich and William walked slowly before William stopped, Ulrich did the same and looked back at the raven.
"So will you give us a try?" William asks.
Ulrich sighs and looks down then up at him and smiles slightly.
"Yes, But we need to keep it a secret." Ulrich replies.
"Done." William says smiling and kissing the brown-haired boy happily.
