You're The Music That's Been Playing In My Head: Book 2

Despair Bear: Part 2

"No. Why would it? They all seem to enjoy getting dirty making cookies, how's it any different from getting dirty cleaning floors? They should be thanking me if anything." 

Adrien lets out an exasperated sigh. "Chloé, how long have you and I been friends?" 

"Since we were adorable little tots, Adriekeins~" 

"Well, I'm sorry, Chloé, but I can't be friends with someone who treats other people like this. You gotta be nice to people." 

I flinch in shock. I honestly didn't think Adrien had the nerve to do this kind of thing. I mean, it's well deserved, he doesn't need a toxic friend, and she needs to realize that if she continues to be toxic, she'll lose everyone.

"N...Nice?" 

"Yes, nice! It's not that hard," He walks off, and I make my way over to other friends to avoid being yelled at by Chloé.

After school, Juleka, Rose, Alix, Mylène, Alya, Marinette, and I decide to hang out in Mari's room and do a small little fashion show, Alya was taking pictures claiming they could be used in a fashion blog that focuses on Mari's designs and be in her portfolio, all while listening to my latest song:

Let's just say that finally accepting my feelings toward Luka had greatly influenced my music, especially after we started dating, and the girls had taken notice of that. 

"Your new song is cool, and it's refreshing to see you open up about your crush (y/n). Is that why it took so long for a new song to come out?" Alya asks, and I feel my cheeks go pink.

"Kinda, let's just say there's been some revelations, and then Luka and I started dating," I responded, glancing at Marinette with the internal reminder she was Ladybug. 

"You and Luka are gonna make the cutest couple," Juleka mumbles with a smile.

"It was such a relief when you two started dating," Rose sighed happily, and this caught my attention.

"Now wait a second! How did you know I was crushing on Luka?! I never told you, girls!" My cheeks start to go red while Rose shrugs it off.

"It's so obvious it's him." 

"Yeah, he's like the only guy you ever spend any alone time with," Alix chimes in as all of the other girls nod.

Feeling flustered, I grab a hat and shove it into Alix's face jokingly and tell them. "Stop it and just focus on the photoshoot!" 

We laugh and get back to the fashion show when Marinette pulls out her latest project: a changeable jewel necklace. 

"I designed these jewels to be customizable on the necklace yourself," She hands the pink one to Rose, who squeals over how cute it is. 

Alya takes another photo before showing them to Marinette, stating, "These would make awesome starter photos for your upcoming fashion blog," That's when her phone pings, and she stares down at it in confusion. "Chloé?" 

"What does that bratty snob want?" Mari asks, peeking over Alya's shoulder as she responds. 

"Chloé's inviting me to a party...?" 

Suddenly, the girls let out a chorus of me toos. It wasn't long before even I got an invitation. 

I thought she hated my guts...?
