Hello it's been a while but here I am for those still reading (:

"Say William, I'm sorry I keep bringing it up, it's just, don't you think there is a reason you stayed last night?" Sissi asked, still confused about the whole situation.

"I don't know, it felt nice but, I really care about Yumi. Plus you left me remember? I know it's in the past, but still. Why torture me?" William sadly mumbled.

"You keep bringing that up. Why can't we just try again? I still care about you. You know we would still be together if you had tried harder." Sissi desperately pleaded as she broght William's face closer to hers.

William couldn't believe what he was hearing, she knew he had a girlfriend and Sissi had a boyfriend but here she was putting it all on the line for him. Did he want to try again?

"Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Ishiyama the food was exquisite." Ulrich grinned as he slight bowed.

"Yumi you had never told us you had such delightful friends." Mr. Ishiyama chuckled as he stood up impressed by Ulrich.

"No problem dear, you are welcomed to join us anytime." Mrs. Ishiyama smiled as she left the dinining room with all the dishes.

"Wow Ulrich you really can be a gentleman when you want to be," Yumi grinned as she punched him on the shoulder. Why was it never this easy with William? Her parents really weren't his biggest fan.

"Excuse me, you do know that this is considered spousal abuse right?" Ulrich chuckled as he massaged his left shoulder.

"Sorry honey," Yumi winked as she motioned for them to go to her backyard.

"It's nice out here. You can really see the sunset." Ulrich grinned as he took a seat on the grass next to Yumi.

"I'm glad you're enjoying hanging out with me. I have to admit I was nervous about this because of all the arguing we always seem to do." Yumi chuckled.

"That's just cause I like messing with you. But seriously, thank you for inviting me to stay, it gets lonely at home alone." Ulrich sighed as he let himself fall on the grass.

Yumi couldn't help but smile. She had forgotten that his parents were always gone. Maybe that's why he's always acting so tough.

"I. I. I care about you. It's just I don't trust you." William sighed as he pulled away from Sissi.

"Then let me prove it to you. Right here, right now. I'll do anything." Sissi cried as she sat on William's lap.

"Okay, call the guy you left me for and tell him you never want to see him again. And tell him that he sucks in bed." William abruptly stood up pushing Sissi off of him. He had forgotten that he had heard that Sissi had lost her virginity to him.

"I can do the first part, but not the second part." Sissi sighed as she leaned against the wall.

"Why not? That's what my conditions are!" William exclaimed as he took a seat again.

"Cause I never slept with him stupid. That was just a rumor!" Sissi angrily shouted.

"Wait so that whole story about you guys in his dad's truck is a lie?" William was beaming, this was why he had finally let her go.

"Yes. That was his friend and some other girl at a party. I only ever wanted to do that for love and I'm just not in love with him." Sissi warmly smiled as she looked at William.

William flooded with excitement ran towards Sissi and embraced her. Sissi seeing this as her opportunity pulled his face into hers until their lips met. Rather than fight it William decided to just let whatever happened be.

"Well it's getting pretty late, I should get going." Ulrich sighed as he stood up and extended his arm to help Yumi up.

"Yeah," was all Yumi managed to say as she took his hand. "This was... nice." Yumi smiled warmly.

"Yeah, it was." Ulrich grinned as he started walking towards the gate.

"You think William is still with her? He hasn't texted me all day." Yumi sighed as she walked Ulrich to his car.

Ulrich couldn't help but worry as well however, he couldn't mention the reason why. Attempting to reassure Yumi he simply smiled and said, "Listen, don't go and make yourself crazy thinking about that. You keep trusting him and being confident until he proves otherwise. Either way, if he screws up it'll be his loss. Later wife." Ulrich smirked as he got in his car.

Yumi felt the blood rushing to her cheeks. Since when was Ulrich smart and smooth. She giggled as she walked back inside.

"Jesus William, you look like a crackhead, quit pacing up and down the bleachers!" Ulrich shouted as he walked towards William.

"What took you so long! I need advice now." William quickly shot back.

"Okay with?" Ulrich sighed as he took a seat next to his best friend.

"I made out with Sissi yesterday. I couldn't help it. She's so hot and she was all over me, asking me to get back with her, well more lik begging," William rambled on.

Ulrich could feel his blood boiling. He couldn't figure out why but hearing his friend's pathetic excuses made him angry. Before he could even help himself he blurted, "So. are you breaking up with Yumi? I mean you can't seriously be that much of an asshole, right?"

William turned to him in disbelief, since when was he so self righteous? "Uhh, what was that? I came to you for some bro to bro advice. I don't know what to do. I like them both."

"Well you can't have them both, grow up. I told you that you should've switched partners with me." Ulrich retorted as he rolled his.eyes. "I'll see you in class."

Yumi couldn't wait to see Ulrich this morning to tell him the good news.

"Hello I'm wife," Ulrich did his best to forget what he had just heard.

"Ulrich. you were right about everything. William stopped by after you left with roses and the sweetest apology." Yumi's eyes sparkled as she told Ulrich.

Ulrich could help but feel horrible for her. He only took her those roses because he was feeling guilty. "I told you it would all work out." Ulrich responded trying his best to sound interested.

"Yeah." was all Yumi was able to say. He was acting weird.

Ulrich quickly faked a smile. Maybe he had sounded a little indifferent. "So, you want to go over the budget report sheet before we have to turn it in tomorrow?"

"Sure, but I think we should go to the grocery store after class together so we can get realistic prices." Yumi suggested as class started.

"Alright it's a date," Ulrich winked as he opened his textbook.
