Chapter 7: More Than A Feeling

"Okay Lu, major news," Adrien said excitedly as he put an arm around Luka's shoulders. The pair of boys walked outside through the doors of the building and started walking down the street.

"Alix from 11th grade totally flirted with me today. She even winked at me in the cafeteria! However, I just heard from someone that she's going on a date tonight at the Rialto sooo.." Adrien trailed off and Luka slapped a hand across his face. He turned to look at his best friend and found him staring with a toothy grin.

"Okay, you, me, the movies tonight. We are stalking a very hot peer."

"Dude, negative," Luka answered him and Adrien's face fell.

"What?! I'm actually right about to shake hands with the possibility of losing my virginity in a high-level fantasy fashion! And finding my significant other. You know I've had a thing for her since kindergarten!" He told Luka and the blue-haired boy laughed. He stopped on his tracks and turned fully towards him.

"Adrien, go home. Walk your dog. It's not going to happen." He told him.

"Not tonight! That's not the plan, man. I just want to familiarize her with the gaze, the smile, the charming features, you know." He said wiggling his eyebrows.

"Don't do this to yourself. You're gonna get hurt, you know that. Alix isn't exactly the stable type."

"Look, it is a fact that a large percentage of older women are attracted to young boys on the verge of manhood. It keeps them feeling young. I read that in Cosmopolitan." Adrien stated and Luka burst out laughing.

"The girl is barely 10 months older than you!! Also, what are you doing reading Cosmopolitan?" Luka kept laughing and Adrien frowned.

"Look, I have three menstrually diverse cousins who visit nearly every two weeks, Cosmo is my savior." He replied and Luka snorted.

"What would you even need me for?" Luka brought them back to the first subject.

"Moral support." He shrugged. "Okay, It'll be cool. You can invite Ms. Teen New York." He told him with a knowing smile.

Just as Luka was about to respond they spotted Chloe walking down the street with a boy next to her.

"That sounds good, yeah." They heard her tell the guy. He waved at her as he turned to head another way, leaving her by herself.

"Unless somebody's beaten you to it. C'mon man, get in there. Be assertive. Talk to her, alright? You should be the one reading Cosmo. It'll build your female esteem." Adrien told his best friend and he snorted in return. "Go on.." he pressed while pushing him towards her.

"Luka, hey! How's it going?" Chloe asked as Luka slipped next to her.

"Pretty good. I see you've met Kim Chien Le." He told her. Way to go, so smooth, he thought to himself.

"Yeah, nice guy." Luka gulped at that.

"Yeah.." he paused. "Jock quarterback by day, schizophrenic transvestite by night." He went on without knowing where he's going with this. His nerves eased when he heard a laugh.

"Oh really?"

"Has what you call a Tori Spelling complex. He's partial to Victoria's Secret."
