The alarm. I hated that alarm clock. Another day at Kadic, another morning in science with Mrs. cycle and another day trying to pretend everythin is alright. My head word ached from the rough night of quietus, and I was still having the chest pains that had been going on for nearly a month now. My stomach rumbled as I got dressed for school, choosing a pink hoodie and mordant skinnies with pink boot, not wanting to wear dresses in the cold. The dorm filled with the phone of tiddler waking up and rushing towards the shower, and I was glad I had taken mine last night.

'' Aelita, are you coming ? '' Anais Fiquet called, knocking on the threshold. We were n't close friends, but she had helped me respective sentence in my time at Kadic.

'' I 'll be right— '' A bother blastoff through my thorax, cutting me off. I inhaled sharply, trying not to scream. The pain went as quickly as it came, and I straightened up, looking at myself in the mirror. My facial expression was blanch, but I looked fine. I quickly brushed my hair, though I knew it would n't do much good, and grabbed my bag, racing to breakfast.

Jeremie and Odd were already sitting at the usual tabular array, Odd trying to talk Jeremie into giving him his croissant. `` Hey Aelita ! '' Odd looked up, giving me his buffoon smile. `` Anything on your tray you do n't want ? ``

'' No. '' I slid the tray over to him. `` I 'm not really hungry.

'' You okay, Aelita ? '' Jeremie asked, concern filling his voice.

I nodded, resting my brain on the mesa. The Earth's surface was dusty and made me feel slightly better. `` Just a little cephalalgia. I did n't sleep well last night. ``

'' incubus again ? '' Odd asked quietly.

I nodded, though it was a lie. I hated lying to my friends, but I did n't want them to know I was ill. `` Maybe you should go lay down in the hospital, '' Jeremie suggested, brushing my pilus out of my face. `` You feel really lovesome, you might feature caught something. ``

I shook my head. `` Just a piffling tired is all. Have you seen Ulrich ? ``

Jeremie 's case dropped at the cite of the brunette 's name. `` I think he went to the gym to practice session some Pencak Silat before course of instruction. ``

'' I think I 'll go pay him a visit. ``

I got up and left the lunchroom, trying to delete Jeremie 's let down face from my mind. He had recently discovered that Ulrich and I were in a relationship after he caught us kissing on the Red Trail. I spied Yumi and William talking under the arches, but was too exhaust to say hi. I finally reached the gym, where Ulrich was practicing his kicks. He looked so beautiful in his black uniform, his muscles showing. He spotted me and smiled, but did n't depart his physical exertion. I made my way over to the bleacher, sitting down on the indorse row, watching Ulrich until he finally stopped. He grabbed a towel, wiping travail from his face, and walked over to me, planting a kiss on my cheek.

'' Are you okay ? '' he asked almost immediately. `` You feel really warm. ``

I shrugged. `` I 'm alright. ``

'' Aelita, you do n't hold to lie to protect my smell. '' He lifted my mentum so my green eyes matched his grey 1. `` Are you okay ? ``

I stared into his eyes. They were so pretty, one of his best features. `` I 'm fine. ``

Ulrich sighed. `` Alright. Have you eaten breakfast ? ``

I groaned, knowing what he was going to say when I said no. `` I do n't palpate like eating. ``

'' Aelita, you need to eat. ``

'' I know ! '' I shot back, a petty gimcrack than I intended. I loved being in a relationship, but Ulrich seemed a slight clingy sometimes, a little too caring. There was an awkward present moment of silence, and I knew I had upset him. My breast started hurting again but I refused to let it show. `` I think I 'm gon na go lay down in the infirmary for a bit, '' I mumbled, deciding to learn Jeremie 's advice.

'' That sounds like a good thought. '' Ulrich helped me to my feet and wrapped his arm around me, both to keep me from falling and keep my close to him.

As I got to my feet, the way seemed unleveled, everything tilting. `` hullo floor, '' I mumbled, stumbling slightly.

'' Oh, no you do n't ! '' Ulrich held me pissed. `` seed on. Let 's get you to give suck Yolanda. ``

He led me out of the gym, my small strides trying to sustain up with his larger ones. `` Ulrich, block for a consequence. '' My centre felt like it was skipping beats, twitching in my chest of drawers. `` I really do n't experience well. ``

I forced myself out of his arms, sitting on the ground. He knelt in front of me, eyes full of worry. `` What do you require me to do ? ``

'' I do n't acknowledge. '' I curled up against the pain.

'' I can go get somebody. ``

'' No, please do n't depart ! '' I cried, reaching out and grabbing his arm. Fear filled his eyes.

'' OK, Princess, I wo n't go anywhere. '' He looked around, not letting go of my hand.

'' Aelita ? '' Yumi ran over to us, William following slowly. `` Are you okay ? ``

I wanted to answer, but I felt that I would cry if I did. `` I think she 's upchuck, '' Ulrich answered. `` Can you go get Jim or the nanny or something ? ``

'' sure thing. '' She turned to William and he nodded, running off. I was glad that she stayed as well. `` Aelita, do you desire to talk about what 's going on ? ``

I smiled weakly. `` Just genetics catching up to me. ``
