MariQuinn is Back in Gotham

Touring the School

Hey! So I didn't die. I've been super busy and my modivation went out the window! And thank you guys for so many reads it means a lot to me! I want to finish this story but I don't have many more ideas so this is the third or fourth to last chapter. I'm sorry if something changes, I've reread this book four times and I still can't remember everything.

Marinette's POV

The next day everyone left without me... I was getting ready into the Gotham Academy uniform:

(Marinette not the Author: Of course I added my own touches, I'm not mad.)

and when I got down to the Lobby everyone was gone. Chloe was with me though so yay! I had actually made it early to the lobby today and they had already left. Its 7:00 am The tour starts at 8:30 am which is when school starts. They went 1 and a half hours early! Omg their going to find someway to turn this on me. whyyyy meeeee?

Chloe and I eventually started walking and even stopped at Starbucks cause we missed breakfast because of the class leaving SO GOSH DANG EARLY!!!! CURSE YOU LILA!!!

At Starbucks this just happened to happen. When we were entering I looked over at a table and saw Damien and Tim drinking coffee. (Tim is a senior in this and Damien is a Sophomore like Marinette and her class. Sorry if its not right. If you have a problem with it then you can speak to my manager.)

We walked over after I ordered a caramel Frappuccino and Chloe ordered a strawberry refresher

"Hey! Mind if we join you?" I asked

"No. Not at all!" Tim said before Damien could reply.

I sat next to Damien and Chloe sat next to Tim. I think I saw her blushing... OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH NEW SHIP!!!! EEEEEKKKKKKK!!! WHat would their ship name be? I'll figure it out. I glance over to Damien and notice that his staring at me with a weird expression, though I can't tell what it is.

We held eye contact for a few seconds until both of us looked down, though I thought he was a little red in the face. It must be my imagination, Damien would never like me back. Wait what?! Back? I don't like Damien, do I? No, that's crazy. But then my mind drifted to patrolling with him and that conversation we had, then I thought about what happened moments before when we were staring into each other's eyes, his eyes were a deep forest green---not emeralfd green like that pig Adrien's---but a  deep forest green with a darker outer ring. His pupils were bigger than normal and I felt like I could just fall into them and never come back- What is wrong with me?! Oh my god, I like Damien. It was crazy to think about but I knew it was true. I don't know if I loved him but I knew that I definetly liked him.

This all came to me at once and I felt a rush of emotions. Anger at myself for liking someone that would never like me back, happiness cause, well, I had a crush and that always make someone happy, guilt cause I knew that because of this I'm gonna start treating him differently and I don't want to confuse him, that will just make him hate me more than he already does.

Most importantly, I don't want to get hurt again.

Whatever, I'll figure it out later. We all start talking, with Damien being usually quiet, and eventually I look over at the clock and realize that the tour starts in 10 minutes! I let them know and we all start making a run for it. Luckily I was wearing flats. Finally with 2 minutes to spare we make it to the front of the school, all breathing heavily. Yes we are super heroes and run a lot but it hard running in our uniforms. Chloe was wearing the same thing as me but with different embrodery and jewelry. Both boys were wearing:

(Author not Marinette: same tie as the first picture (blue and green plaid if you don't want to scroll) and no crest)

So yes running was not easy.

When we got there the class was there sitting sprawlled out in the parking lot looking very dejected. It made me happy. Finally Alya sees us and get up and storms over. I couldn't help but notice Damien step a little bit closer to me protectively.

Damien's POV

When I woke up I got in my uniform and went downstairs to be greeting with a coffee drinking Drake, a Todd playing with a gun, and a Grayson reading the newspaper. I looked at the head of the table and noticed my half awake father and greeted him as I sat down. Todd looked at me offended, "No goodmorning to us demon spawn? I see how it is." he looked at me pointedly.

"Yes, well it would have been a good morning for me if I didn't have to see your face first thing every day. Good morning Drake, Good Morning Grayson." I said making sure to leave him out to make my point.

Soon I had ate breakfast, of course made by Alfred, and went to the car waiting outside, Alfred waiting in the drivers seat. Of course I know how he does it. He has a secret passageway that was built by my grandfather, on my fathers side of course, a few years before he died. It was made just for Alfred so he could get places quicker.

On the way to school we decided to stop by the cafe around the corner. We told Alfred that we can just walk from here since it's not that far.

When Chloe and Marinette came in and sat with us, I couldn't help but notice the sun in just the right place to where it was highlighting her features but not pulling away from her eyes. I realized that she had caught me staring and we both held eye contact. It was then that I realized that I am falling for this girl and there was nothing I could do about it. I had fallen hard and there was no way I could come back up for air. It was that realization that started my mini mental breakdown. We both looked away and I don't recall much after that but when the ang- I mean Marinette said that we had to go, we ran. We made it there with 2 minutes to spare, breathing heavily, running in this uniform is surprisingly difficult. When we got there everyone was very scattered around and we Alya noticed us she started stomping towards Marinette. I unconsiously moved towards the angel- Marinette!  NOt ANgeL!- protectively.

I was like everything moved in slow motion but I couldn't stop it. Alya had decided to--

cliffhanger!

nah im kidding but I am almost done with this chapter.

Alya had decided to slap her. Someone hand me the popcorn cause this is about to get messy.
