Backfired Plan

Saturday morning rose with a bright sun and beautiful weather. The previous night's storm left a tingly, moist, fresh sensation in the air. Everyone was cheery, but none more than Ulrich. Odd made a point to point it out at breakfast.

"So Ulrich," Odd said, "Why'd you hang up on me last night?"

"Because you were interrupting a moment...again." Ulrich said, though not as dryly as usual.

"So...did you tell her?" Odd asked. Jeremie and Aelita sat down as well, their trays combined holding less than half of Odd's portion.

"Who?" Ulrich asked nonchalantly.

"Yumi." Odd said.

"Tell her what?" Ulrich asked.

"That you love her!" Odd said, getting somewhat irked but still grinning. Ulrich wiped the pancake syrup from his mouth.

"Yep." Ulrich said.

"Well?" Aelita asked when Ulrich didn't continue.

"Well what?" Ulrich asked, taking another bite of his shortstack.

"What did she say?" Jeremie asked.

"Nothing." Ulrich said.

"What?" the three asked simultaneously.

"Why not?" Odd asked.

"She was preoccupied." Ulrich said.

"With..." Jeremie started.

"What?" Ulrich asked.

"What was Yumi preoccupied with?" Odd asked loudly again.

"I heard my name?" Yumi said, walking over to the table. Everyone was a little surprised to see her. She normally didn't show up at the school so early on the weekend. Ulrich smiled and wiped his mouth again. He stood up as she got close and they both hugged...and kissed. Not just a peck on the cheek either.

"Alright you two, break it up." Jim said, grabbing them both and pushing them apart.

"Way to ruin the moment Jim." Ulrich said.

"Yeah well, public displays of affection are not permitted on school grounds." Jim said self-righteously, "I don't make the rules, I just enforce them." he walked away.

"So you two finally hooked up?" Odd asked as they sat down; Ulrich and Yumi side-by-side.

"It sure looks that way." Yumi said with a blush.

"So, how did it happen?" Aelita asked. Yumi smiled.

"It was kind of pseudo-romantic." Yumi said, "Ulrich just ran into my room, completley soaked in rain, ran up and wrapped his arms around me and kissed me. Despite the fact that all I had on was a towel." Ulrich blushed.

"I was in a hurry." Ulrich said, "I wanted to make sure Roger didn't make a pass at you before I could."

"Roger?" Yumi asked, confused, "Pretty-boy Roger?" Odd whistled innocently and Jeremie suddenly found his laptop interesting. "What does Roger have to do with anything?"

Ulrich blinked, "Odd said that Roger was flirting with you. That he followed you home to ask you out."

"What? Ew." Yumi said, "Sorry, but he's not my type. And he never flirted with me. I've hardly talked to him since I started here." Ulrich turned and looked at Odd.

"Odd. Did you lie to me?" Ulrich asked, standing up.

"Um, well, uh-" Odd stammered. Ulrich walked around the table beside Odd. Odd also stood up so he could run if needed. But, instead of hitting Odd as he expected, Ulrich gave him a hug.

"Thanks." Ulrich said.

"Uh..." Odd said, not knowing what else to do, "Your wel-come?" he said slowly. Ulrich let go and smiled.

"If you hadn't lied, I'd have stayed in bed last night and wallowed in self-pity." Ulrich said, "Thanks to your lie, I avoided a dumb mistake that I'd have regretted."

"Oh...okay." Odd said, sitting back down as Ulrich sat back down. He had finished eating and had his hand holding Yumi's.

"So, any plans with Lyoko for today?" Odd asked Jeremie when he got tired of watching Ulrich stare into Yumi's eyes.

"Actually yeah." Jeremie said, "I wanted to test a program I made for the Skid."

"Then let's go to the factory!" Odd said, getting up and eager to get away from the over-fluffy love air around the table.

***

XANA seethed in his virtual world. His plan had backfired in the worst possible way. He thought it was a brilliant move to have his servent impregnate the female Yumi. He thought it would cause dissension amongst the group. They would ostracize Yumi for being what Humans called a 'whore'. Ulrich would have isolated himself in depression. Aelita would have grown angry at Odd and Jeremie for ostracizing Yumi like that. The group, thus severed, would be unable to stop him. BUT NOW THEY WERE STRONGER THAN EVER!!!
