Trixx's POV:


"Plagg, I have no idea what the hell are these." I said while looking at the test tubes filled with chemicals.



"Me neither." He sighed and looked at me. I looked at him and we just laughed. Not because there's something funny but because we're clueless of this stuff.



"Now we're just gonna laugh here?"




"I guess." I scratched my head as I looked at him. His face has a tint of red. His smile was a bit fishy or is it just me?




An idea popped in my mind. I looked back and I saw Tikki working with Wayzz. They're almost done with their work. While us? We have no idea what to do.



"Miss!" I raised my hand to catch the attention of our teacher.


"Yes?" She looked at me.


"Uhm–can we switch pairs?" I looked at Tikki that was busy working. "I'll switch with Tikki if you don't mind. She knows the stuff more than I do so she can help Plagg."



"Very well. Ms. Dupain-Cheng, you'll be working with Mr. Agreste. While Ms. Césaire here will be paired with Mr. Lahiffe." I stood up and went to Tikki.



"Now go." I whispered and winked at her. Her face was in shock and her cheeks were red. I closed her mouth and chuckled.


"Trixx, what if I messed up?" She hissed at me.


"Come on, you won't let your partner wait for you." I winked at her and tapped her shoulder. She smiled at me controlling her self not to scream. "Now calm yourself down and go."




"You're the best. Eeekk—" She gave me a wide smile and went to Plagg. I chuckled and sat on her seat.


"We're already done here. Your presence isn't necessary anymore, Ms. Césaire." Right, I forgot about this guy.



"Well thank you for pointing out that I'm useless." I sarcastically said and rolled my eyes. I took a glimpse at him. Unlike the whole class, he's the one that isn't look like a half animal half human. I can't see any animalistic features in him.


"Don't stare at me, it's creepy." He coldly said while giving death stares at me.



"What kwami are you?" I cupped my chin while looking at him closely. His eyes were yellowish-green and dark green pupil. I have no idea what animal has an eye color like this. His green hair doesn't have ears attached to it like Plagg. He has no tail like some of us do. Is he even a kwami?


"That's none of your business." He hissed at me and pushed me away.


"Or you're just pretending to be a kwami to be part of this—"



"Just shut up, Césaire!" He screamed and the whole class looked at us.



"Any problems, Mr. Lahiffe?"



"Nothing, miss." The teacher looked back and continued writing on the board.




"Why do you want to know? Don't tell me that you are developing feelings towards me." My face turned red. Geez, this guy has guts. I stick my tongue out in disgust.



"For your information, you're not my type. Obviously, you're just an annoying guy who follows the rules and catches the troublemakers in class. What a boring character to have." I huffed.


Good thing the time ran fast. I don't wnat to spend more time with that guy. As we walked out the classroom, one of my classmates bumped me. She gave me death stares as she stopped in front of me.


She has an orange hair like me, green eyes and dog ears in her head. Her eyebrows stick together with her teeth gritting as she looked at me.



"What do you want?" I calmly asked.



"Who do you think you are, newbie?" She crossed her arms and smirked at me. "Right, no one!"



I closed my eyes as she screamed in my face. This girl needs a chill pill.





"Get to the point. What do you want?" I firmly asked.




"You're getting too close with Wayzz." She pointed at me and hissed. "You better keep your distance from him."



I laughed at her. "Are you his girlfriend? You have terrible taste in men." She growled at me but I just ignored her. "If I were you, I'll run away from that guy. Just a friendly advice."




She raised her hand and was about to slap me but a green barrier stopped her hand.




"May I remind you that no fighting in the school premises." His green eyes stared at both of us.




"N-n-n-no! We're not fighting." I waved my hands at him. The barrier was gone and I locked her in my arms. "See?" We awkwardly smiled at him and his eyes squinted at us. Still felt suspicious.




"I know you two were lying but I still keep my eye on you." He walked passed us while we looked at him as he walked away.




"I told you, you have no right to get close to him." She hissed at me while still locked in my arms.




"Are you his girlfriend?" I raised my eyebrow as her eyes squinted at me.





"Uhhh no but—"





"Then you have no right to tell that." I let go of her and left. I looked for Tikki and we walked together to the bakery. As we arrived, we went to Tikki's room. It's a combination of red and pink with some parts having black spots. Her room is organized, unlike mine.





"Sorry for the mess." She awkwardly chuckled. We went to the bed and laid there.





"So—how's your activity with Plagg?" Well, I have to know what happened to these two. I have another argument with that mean Lahiffe and her obsessive 'girlfriend' for that to happen.





"It's good. Well I almost poured myself with sodium bicarbonate but good thing I noticed it." She scratched her head and laughed awkwardly.






"You become an awkward person when he's around. How will he notice you if you keep on acting like that?" I raised my arms as I show my frustration. "You told me you liked him for years? That's a long time already."






"I know." She sighed and looked at me. "I think he likes someone else."





"Hey." I shift my gaze at her and tapped her shoulder. "Don't be a pessisimist. You just need a little push. Besides, maybe he likes you too."





"About that.."



--


The bell rang and we were about to go to the Art class. Barkk bumped me with her shoulder as she and Kaalki passed us.




We went to the class and there were nothing interesting happened. As the class ended, we went down and walked towards the gate.




"Trixx!" I looked back and saw Plagg chasing us. He paused while catching his breathe.



"Hey!" I smiled at him and Tikki stood beside me.





"I was wondering—" He looked away and scratched his neck. "If you're available this weekend."





Then realization hit me.





Is he asking me out? This is screwed.
