Morning arrived, William and Ulrich had gotten up from their long nights sleep. They quickly cleaned themselves off and dressed heading out to the cafeteria to find their friends who probably already knew about their relationship thanks to blabber mouth Odd who caught them last night.
"I should have made sure the door was locked last night, I'm so sorry, Ulrich…" William apologizes.
"Its fine…Don't apologize it was going to have to come out sooner or later." Ulrich replies with a small smile.
"Okay…We'll are you ready to face our friends?" William questions looking through the window seeing all of them sitting in their usual spot.
Ulrich took a deep breath before opening the door walking in, William follows in behind him, they don't bother going in line and went straight to the table.
"May we sit here with you?" Ulrich questions.
"Of course, you don't even need to ask." Yumi answers.
Ulrich and William sat with the group, it was dead silent at their table. The rest of the cafeteria was their normal loud self.
"You know you should have told us instead of hiding it from us, we wouldn't have judged you…You should have trusted us more." Yumi speaks.
Ulrich sighs. "I know…But I was afraid that this would make you think different of me or William…That you would hate us."
"You are our friend, we all have a bond we love each other no matter what." Aelita says giving a gentle smile.
"Ulrich, how dare you not tell me, I'm your friend wait scratch that best friend, why did I have to walk in and catch you? What you didn't trust me enough to talk to me about this?" Odd snaps.
"I know you're my best friend." Ulrich replies.
"Save it, Ulrich." Odd replies getting up from his seat storming off.
Ulrich sighs, before standing up. "I better go after him…"
"Want me to go with, dear?" William questions.
"No, I better handle this alone but thanks for asking." Ulrich replies leaving the cafeteria.
Ulrich found Odd sitting on his bed petting Kiwi, Ulrich stood in front of him and sighed before joining him on the bed.
"Odd…" Ulrich says.
"Forget it, its fine that you don't trust me…" Odd replies.
"I trust you completely, you're my best friend, the one I can turn to talk to when I'm sulking…I just didn't know what to say because it was something new…" Ulrich says.
"You know what, I'm sick of being just your best friend." Odd snaps.
"What are you talking about, Odd?" Ulrich asks confused.
Odd says nothing and kisses the brunette boy, Ulrich's eyes went wide with shock, He froze in his spot, before he could react, Odd pulled away.
"What I said about Aelita was a cover up for what I really meant...I want you, Ulrich." Odd says.
