Lukanette Soulmates AU

Chapter Twenty-Two: Her Drunken Hesitation

(A/N: ANOTHER LONG CHAPTER ALTHOUGH THIS ONE IS SUPER LONG)

Marinette's POV

Where the hell did that declaration of love come from!? And how did it all happen so fast- I didn't even have time to process anything and then he was telling me to stay away from him?!

My head was swarming with thoughts.

We were soulmates... Did I love him... like he loved me... what about Adrien... when did he start to love me...

I shook off my own thoughts.

All I knew was: I wanted him back. 

I paused. 

I had been trying to get ahold of Luka all week- he had been clearly avoiding me though.

Nothing was working-I even shouted his name a couple times in the- hallway- nothing.

Wasn't I the one that told Luka to stay away from me in the beginning? Oh god-

I felt tears brim in my eyes as I helped Alya with her mascara in the girl's bathroom.

"Girl- if you're this upset then just stop cheating." Alya said as she continued to guide my hands to her eyelashes to use the tool.

That definitely got my attention.

"What!" I screamed as I dropped her mascara on the bathroom floor.

"MARINETTE!" She screamed, pointing down at the mascara.

"Why do you think I'd be cheating???"

"On Adrien- with Luka Couffaine. Duh." Alya said, glaring at me as she picked up her mascara.

"NO!" I exclaimed.

"Welllll you and Adrien have been fighting a lot and you've been really into Luka lately- I mean I don't blame you he's super hot, and plays the guitar-and that's basically your type- so..."

"I'VE NOT BEEN 'REALLY INTO LUKA LATELY'! HE'S MY FRIEND AND WE GOT INTO A FIGHT THAT'S ALL."

"I was just teasing, Girl." Alya laughed.

I pouted looking at her.  She nearly gave me a heart attack. 

"Also my type is not hot people who play the guitar." I said sticking my nose up high. 

"You're right.  Your type is hot white guys who are musicians or musically talented."

I blushed at her words, "Speaking of cheating... D-do you think that Adrien may be.. cheating on me?" I said quietly, "we haven't really been the closest lately... we aren't exactly kids anymore..."

At this Alya stood up and frowned.

"Hey I was just joking. Adrien is a lot of things but he would never cheat on you."

"But I see him with girls all the time like Lila and this Kagami girl-"

Alya hugged me.  "Relax. You two will be just fine. Adrien makes mistakes but he's a good guy."

I wish that was true. At some point in time Adrien makes too many mistakes...

As I sat at home, after school, I sighed looking at the crescent shaped guitar pick that Luka had given me laying next to my bed. 

My phone vibrated next to me as I saw the name 'Alya🦊' stretch across my phone.

I clicked the speaker button as I heard her bubbly voice fill my room.

"Girl! Cheer up! We're going to a party tonight! It's at Ivan's! Kim and Alix just told me about it!"

"Oh Alya I don't know..."
