More than this
It's been about 10 years since we deactivated Xana, saved William and Franz Hopper. It was difficult, but I still miss the trips to Lyoko. It is something I'll never forget…
Jeremie and Aelita live in a great house, and they are about to marry, next month to be exactly. Jeremie works with computers, he build an enterprise that is going very well, and for Aelita, she works with Jeremie and in the spare time, she is writing a collections of books about 4 kids that had found a huge computer in an old factory…
Odd and Sam married and have a little kid, Odd jr. They work together as art teachers, and they have a store that has lots of arts things, and they also have an atelier.
William lives alone, he had tried to date me innumerous times, but my heart always belong to another boy, a brown haired one, named Ulrich. Maybe, if I never met Ulrich, I'd date William, but it is not the case…
We live together, he works in Jeremie and Aelita's enterprise, and I work as an acquitter. But we are not married or even about to. I still wait for him to ask me, but sometimes it just looks like he will never do it…
And it kind of makes me sad…
But what is worst is, tomorrow I saw him with a girl that works with, named Emily, I already had problems with her in the past, when Ulrich and I almost kissed for the first time. But I'm afraid that he likes her… The way he was smiling to her was just not right, and it bothers me…
"Are you jealous or something?" I heard Ulrich asking me, I was talking with him about it.
"And if I am?"
"I'd say to you to stop, Emily and I are just friends, that's all!" We were raising the volume of our voices, almost shouting. "We date for almost 8 years, I wouldn't betray you now!"
"Yeah we date for almost 8 years. And you know something? I don't want it anymore!"
And it is true, I'm tired of live with him but just date with him. Couldn't he see that I want more? I want to be his wife, I want to have children with him. Why he couldn't see it?
"Are you breaking up with me?"
He asked in disbelieve. I wasn't exactly doing it, I was just saying that I wanted more, but not exactly with those words… I love him, but sometimes he can be really idiot… I sighed and felt my eyes get wet, and so I quickly got out of the house, crying.
In the middle of the street, I run into someone, after all, I was running but not looking where I was going. I fall backwards and the person that I had run into also did fall. I looked at him, I knew who it was, and it was a friend named William.
"William…"
"Hey, Yumi… Why are you crying?" He asked standing up and also helping me doing it.
"Nothing…"
"You are lying. I know you good enough to tell it. You know you can tell me anything, we are friends since high school…"
I knew I could trust him, and I need someone to tell this, I needed someone to hear me and comfort me, to say that everything was going to be fine.
"Ok, I'll tell you, but I don't want to do it here in the middle of the street…"
"If it is ok, we can go to my house. What do you think?"
"Sounds good…"
And with it, he took me to his house. We sat on his sofa, and I told him every thing. How I'm jealous about Ulrich, how we fight and even how I wanted more of him…
"It is kinda sad, Yumi…" He said "But look, I can give you more, I can give you everything you want of me."
I looked at him, I could not believe it, he was flirting with me or it is just my impression?
"What?"
"You heard me, I want you Yumi, I love you, and you want someone to you that loves you. We are perfect for each other" He said getting closer
"I thought that you knew that I love Ulrich and I thought that you stopped with it a long time ago…"
I could not finish what was I was going to say because he started to kiss me and hugs me. I tried to get rid of him, but it was kinda difficult because he was really strong. Finally I manage to push him on the floor so I run to the door and opened it, running away.
Hours have passed, and I still didn't go home, I couldn't do it, after all, Ulrich was there... I started to think in many things, I remembered how we started to date, how we beat Xana, how we started to live together. I remembered everything we've been trough.
I was walking without knowing where I was going, but then, I found someone sat on a bench. Hands in the face and the knees supporting the elbows. Even not seeing his face, I know it was Ulrich.
I turned around I wanted to get out of there before he sees me. But something made me stop, his cell rang up and I started to get interested with who he'd be talking to… so I hide myself and heard him
"Odd, did you find her?!" some silence, Odd might be saying something "And you know if she went to your house… No? She didn't…" Another silent moment "Did you look everywhere? Are you sure…" another one "I know I should be calm, but I just can't. I'm afraid that she could get hurt or something like that, she didn't go to your or Aelita's house. Where she could be?" he stopped again to hear Odd "No, I'll not go home till I found her. I know she may be there, but I doubt it, I know she wouldn't go home knowing I'd be there… Yeah, I know I'm stubborn…" once again he stopped "Good luck you too…"
He looked at his cell and pressed some buttons, soon putting it on his ear again.
"Aelita, she is there?" silent moment "No? Ok, but call me as soon as she gets there… If she goes to your house..."
He hung up and pressed another buttons on his cell, putting it back up to his ear.
"Jer, did you find her?" he stopped and then sighed "Ok, call me if you find her…" silent moment "I know, I know… But I'm just too desperate about her to try to calm down…" Ulrich sighed "I gotta go… Good luck…"
He hung up, but this time, he didn't call anyone. He looked up at the sky, with sad eyes, and asked out loud
"Yumi, where are you?"
Oh my God! He was worried about me, he was searching for me, desperately. I felt myself a bit guilty. He stood up, but before he starts to walk, he saw me. His eyes widened and he asked
"Yumi? Is that you?" He probably could not see me very well, since it was dark there. I didn't move or say, he got closer and then could see that it was really me. "Yumi! Thank God you are ok! I was worried about you, where were you?!"
I still didn't speak, because I still was a bit mad at him. And he noticed it.
"Yumi, why are you so mad with me? What I've done wrong? I love you and only you, I have nothing with Emily…"
"Ulrich, sometimes you can be really stupid…" I could see his face gets sadder "And I don't know why I still love you, but if you can't give me what I want, it is better we break up…"
I said not noticing the words going out of my mouth. I could see his eyes widen up.
"So what is it? What do you want? I'll give you anything, you just have to tell me what you want!" I looked deep into his wonderful emarald green eyes
"Ulrich, we date for almost 8 years, we live together for about 3 years, but we are just boyfriend and girlfriend. What do you think I'd want more?"
I said hopping he could understand me. He thought for a moment, and when I was about to give up and go away, he said
"Yumi, you could have told me this before. Why couldn't you tell me you wanted more?" He finally understood. I saw him kneeling down, holding my hand. This time, I widened "Yumi, I love you really much, and I want to be with you for the rest of my life. I don't have an alliance here, but I want to ask you this, will you marry me?" He said gulping
I felt my eyes get wet from happiness, I smiled but I couldn't mange to say a word. He stood up asking "Yumi, are you crying?" putting his hands on my face, trying to wipe the tears away. I embraced him saying a small
"Yes!"
Somehow I knew he was also smiling, though I wasn't looking at him now. I finally got what I wanted. I'll marry the guy I love, and it feels just perfect.
