2: New York

The doorbell rang and Marinette as usual, was late. "Marinette! Adrien is waiting!" Tom came standing next to her and chuckled. "This girl."

"Cmon Sabine, you thought she'd change?"

"In her lateness yeah, I hoped she would."

"I'm here!" Marinette got down in blue jeans and a sweator top, her hair left long.

[ She's wearing this ]

"Honey, you look stunning!"

"Thanks mom." she hugged her parents and went downstairs with her suitcase and two little bag.

She opened to door to Adrien admiring her. Something in him snapped.

"Adrien?"

"Y- you look st- stunning." the hell am I stuttering

"Uh thanks. You ready to go to the airport?"

"Yep, let's go. My bodybuard is bringing me. Father told me you're my new bodybuard."

"Ooh, I'm honored." they both laughed and got in the limo. Today they would start a new chapter in their life.

Marinette and Adrien got to the airport and saw a crying Alya at the gate. "Hey, what happened?"

"She doesn't wanna say goodbulye to Marinette. Where is Marinette?"

"At the check in. Her bag is too heavy."

"Bro, you're not helping her?"

"Marinette!"

Alya ambushed Marinette resulting to them laying on the airport floor now.

"Als- I need- to- to breathe ple- please."

"Oh sorry." Alya got up from Marinette and hugged her harder. "I'm gonna miss you!" Alya said crying on her shoulder.

"Hey, I'm not leaving forever. I'll visit."

"So I'm the only one that stays."

Everyone turned to Nino. Nobody said anything until a flight got announced.

"flight 1215GH0 to New York is leaving in 10 minutes at gate 11."

Adrien and Mari looked at each other. They were nowhere near gate 11.

"Yeah,we should really go, or we'll miss our flight."

"Okay. Have a safe flight and text me when you get there!"

"Will do!"

Marinette and Adrien left to the plane, leaving a crying Alya behind.

"Alya, stop crying. It's not like she's gone forever."

"What, so you don't care about Adrien leaving?"

"I do. But we said our goodbyes and that was all."

"Ugh guys."

________

"What's your seat number?"

Marinette looks at her ticket. "3c"

"Shit, we're not sitting together."

"No! What's your seat number?"

"4c."

"Oh you asshole."

Adrien chuckles. They went to their seats and sat down. She took out her sketchbook and started drawing a new design she had prepared in her head.

"Oh, looks nice."

"Wha- omg Adrien, can you not?"

"What?"

"I'm trying to do something here."

"Yeah, and it's beautiful."

Marinette ignored him the rest of the flight.

_____

"Where's your dorm?"

"Let me see. Uh my dorm is that door."

"Well, we're neighbors."

"Wait, we're not in the same dorm?"

"Apparently not."

Marinette walked in her dorm and there was a guy sitting at the table studying. She recognized him.

"Thomas?"

Thomas turned around and saw Marinette with her suitcase and 2 little bags. "Oh hey. So you're my roommate then."

"Yeah. I'm kind of bummed that I'm not sharing my room with my friend, but at least it's you."

Thomas chuckled. He had curly short blonde hair with strains of black tangled in there. He had a quarterback shirt on and his shoes looked like they came out of a magazine.

"Are you playing football?"

"What?"

Marinette pointed to his jacket.

"Oh. No, no this isn't mine. My friend's brother plays and he gave it to me. I'm not that fit."

The door flew open and an angry Adrien stood in the doorway. "Help me."

"What's wrong?"

"My roommate is obsessed with me."

Marinette chuckled. "What?"

"I opened the door and her part of the walls were full of pictures of me. And when she saw me in the doorway she fainted."

Marinette snorted. "Adrien you clueless blonde. You have seen my room, right?"

"Yeah, it looks nice. You just need to decorate."

"No, back in Paris."

"Oh you had- oh."

"I can't believe you were ever so oblivious."

"Well, I think I gotta go back to my unconscious roommate."

He shut the door and she went to sit on her bed. "Oh, this is very soft."

Thomas chuckled. "I can't believe you're friends w Adrien Agreste."

"Yeah. He's nice. I had a crush on him for 3 year straight but he kept thinking of me as a friend. So, I just gave up."

Thomas went to sit closer to Marinette on her bed. "Well then he misses out on a lot."
