Thomas was sitting closer to Marinette, and putting his hand on her shoulder making Marinette uncomfortable.

"Uh, what are you doing?"

Thomas had a smirk on his face and Marinette wasn't just gonna sit there and get assaulted. 

"Thomas get off, now."

"Alright, alright, no need to snap."

"Snap? You were gonna assault me! If you dare do that again, i'm changing dorms."

Thomas nodded and got back to his side of the room. Marinette didn't felt say safe alone with Thomas so she decided to go to Adrien's room so she could tell him too, what happened. 

She left her dorm and entered in Adrien's one. He was on his bed looking at his computer when he looked up and saw Marinette horrified in his doorway.

"Marinette?" he got off his bed and helped Marinette who looked like she could break down any minute. "Cmon, sit. This is Amber, the girl i talked about."

Marinette looked up from the floor and smiled at Amber.

"So what's wrong?"

"Thomas almost assaulted me."

"WhAT?" Adrien got up and entered Marinette's dorm. He walked over to Thomas and punched him, resulting a pained Thomas on the floor with a bloody noise.

"Hey man, what the fuck was that for?"

"Attempted assault on my friend!"

"Oh my god, don't make such a drama out of it. I didn't even do anything!" Thomas got off the floor and sat himself on his bed, holding a tissue on his broken and still bleeding nose.

"You dare touch her again and I'm going to the principal to kick you out."

"God. Yeah whatever."

"But this night she's sleeping with me. I don't trust you." Adrien left and shut the door. He wanted to go all Chat Noir on him, but they weren't in Paris anymore. When he got to his dorm, the scared Marinette was gone. She was all happy again, talking with Amber. 

She was glowing. Her dark hair slid over her shoulders and was glowing too. He didn't know what happened. He always saw Marinette as his friend but why the sudden feelings?

"I see you've befriended Amber."

"Yeah, she's very nice."

"Hey, weren't you supposed to call Alya?"

Marinette's eyes got big. You could see the fear in them. She quickly ran to her dorm. "I completely forgot to call Alya, she's gonna kill me through the phone." Adrien laughed as she saw his friend run to her dorm and pick up her phone.

"Alya?"

"Oh, she's a friend of ours since we were 14. She told Marinette to call her when she arrived but she didn't."

"Als?" Marinette put her on speaker, but whole New York could her her. 

"Marinette! I told you to call me! I was worried sick! Did something happen? Are you okay? How is Adrien, why the fuck didn't you call me-"

Adrien was on the floor laughing with tears at Marinette's face. Amber, who didn't knew who Alya was just up to five seconds ago, was snorting on her floor. Thomas who was just sitting at his bureau, tried to hold in his laugh.

".....and never forget to call me again." Marinette hung up the phone and left her dorm to see half of the students staring at her.

"what are you all staring at? Go." Marinette went over to Adrien's where he was still laughing. "Oh you dick, get up. Shouldn't you call Nino?"

"He usually doesn't pick up."

"I- whatever i'm going to my dorm. I still need to unpack."

"Hey, you want me to come with you?"

"No, thanks Adrien, i don't need a knight in a shining armour. I also should talk to him, it's okay."

"But-"

"No buts. I'll be fine. Amber, tie him up if it's necessary."

"Yes ma'am." 

"Haha very funny."
