New School, New Friends

Interlude 1 - Adrien

Adrien

Wednesday

Adrien knew he was lucky to be born of money and that he was lucky that if he wanted something he would get it. He was happy because he had a mother and a father and his best friend Chloe and he was promised to go be allowed to go to public school with his best friend but then his life changed when his mother disappeared and his father had refused to let him go to public school like promised.

Then he became Chat Noir, he met the love of his life Ladybug, and he was allowed to go to public school. He made friends and he was happy but then Lila came and Ladybug rudely called her out for her lies and then three months later she shows up again and he was willing to give her a chance and he made sure Marinette knew this but She became difficult to deal with.

Two months was all it took before he decided to confront her. Marinette had lost her friends because she was too stubborn to see Lila as a potential friend and giving her a chance to be better. Lila was actually becoming better and she wasn't lying as much if only Marinette would open her eyes. Adrien was done with Marinette after Alya revealed that Marinette had been bulling Lila Adrien decided to confront Marinette at lunch.

"Marinette I need to talk to you" Adrien had called out to Marinette, Thankfully Marinette listened and turned around, Adrien then grabbed her wrist to hold her in place in case she tried to escape, not that she could with his added strength

"What Adrien?" Marinette asked in a dry tone as if she didn't wanna be there

Adrien frowned at her tone before answering, "You shouldn't have sent Lila those messages Marinette"

"You need to stop antagonizing her and take the High road like we said" Adrien continued not noticing Marinette's eye twitch, "I get that you don't like her but maybe if you became her friend and set an example she'll get better and.."

"Excuse me, but what?" Marinette asked in disbelief to what Adrien just said and not wanting to believe that he actually thought Marinette sent Lila those messages.

"Marinette, seriously you need to listen to me," Adrien said angrily, "Stop making Lila the villain and start being the everyday Ladybug that I know you are and be a good example for Lila because she is getting better"

Marinette just stare at him with her mouth hanging open before she regains her voice, "I can not believe you"

Adrien stares at her in confusion as though he doesn't know what situation they were in.

"Do you honest to god believe that I would send her those messages?" Marinette ask him in even more disbelief, "Adrien she was lying"

"See there you go again making her the villain," Adrien said

"I wasn't making her the villain I was stating a fact and you need to realize that she really isn't getting better," Marinette tells him with a hint of anger in her voice, "She's getting worse"

"Marinette your supposed to be our everyday Ladybug and.." Adrien started explaining

"You gotta stop using that against me Adrien because I didn't ask to be your everyday Ladybug" Marinette cut him off, "And you need to realize that what you're suggesting isn't the high road but the cowards way out of a tough situation"

"No, You need to realize that your being stubborn and need to let the situation go," Adrien said and had started raising his voice

"Excuse me but if you haven't noticed I am defending myself against them," Marinette said stubbornly also raising her voice, "And weren't we supposed to be in this together?"
