I Trusted You (Miraculous au)

Chapter 5

Tuesday 30 minutes before class starts

Marc’s POV

Since yesterday, I noticed that Nath isn’t being himself.

I don’t know why, but I am not acting like myself either.

Why? Well… I have a crush on Nath.

Yep, if you never knew this, I have been attracted to boys since always, and when it comes to Nath, I can’t describe it.

He is very sweet, very creative, and he is a very awesome guy.

I felt something for him since the first day I met him, on the day I was akumatized that day when he was harsh.

And this has grown since we have been spending more time together.

I didn’t mind that feeling until the day when I was hanging out with Nath, Alix, Kim, and Max.

When I was talking with Alix about Nath, that was when I realized that I like Nath more than just a friend.

I am not surprised about it, but I don’t know how he will take it when I tell him.

And now it is harder to hide this in front of him. I know that I am shy near him, and I am avoiding eye contact with him most of the time. I can’t help it though.

I don’t know what I should do about it.

“Marc, are you ok?” Nath looked at me while I was spaced out in the Art room.

“Yeah, yeah I am fine. Just wondering about the… new comic idea we could possibly do.”

“Oh. Ok, I actually have an idea. I thought about…”

I tried to focus on what he was saying, but when your crush is talking, it is hard to do so.

Tuesday 10 minutes before class starts

Lila’s POV

My sweet cousin showed me the audio yesterday when I returned home, and I was really mad.

I guess Chloe was right after all. They aren’t the friends Mari thinks they are.

Time to level up the game.

I have texted Marinette to meet me at the school doors so then we make a scene. I know she hates lying, but it has to be done.

I saw Marinette arriving at the school doors, looking not happy, but I put my fake sweet smile on and started the act.

“Hi Marinette, can I talk with you for a second?” She looks at me weirdly, but she realized what I meant.

“I have no time for this so be quick.” That was perfect how she said it.

I know that there are my classmates listening to our conversation as they are looking annoyed that Mari is talking harshly to me. Bingo.

“I know that you have a crush on Adrien, but don’t worry, your secret is safe with me.”

“Used to have a crush.” She is looking angry at me. It is fake as she knows that I would say that.
