Estelle

Estelle opened the door to her locker, Hugo standing next to her. She could feel his eyes looking at her but she doesn't feel creeped out by it. She never would've thought that she would meet him again just a few hours after him crashing into her in the park but she's glad she did because all she could think about after the crash was meeting him again.

Before they headed off to class Estelle told Hugo that she needed to quickly grab a few things from her locker and he agreed to tag along. They talked a bit along the way and she found out that he's the same age as her but older by just a month. When Niya mentioned that Hugo is in their class she felt excited at the thought of seeing him everyday at school.

Estelle grabbed a couple books into her hands and closed the locker door with her elbow before finally starting up a conversation again.

'Would you like a tour of the school at break?'

Hugo didn't hesitate in what he replied with.

'How about you give me a tour now?'

It didn't take Estelle long to realise that Hugo suggested that they bunk their current lesson now and wander around the school alone together. She thought of an answer which surprised her as what she should've instantly said was no but here she is, debating in her mind wether to agree or to turn the offer down.

Estelle had never skipped a class out of free will before so when she nodded her head to skipping class, she couldn't believe her own actions. A smile appeared on Hugo's face which made Estelle confirm her decision before she changed her mind.

They exited the lockerroom and walked onto the courtyard.

'I know Niya introduced us to eachother but I want to introduce myself to you personally. Estelle Couffaine.'

Hugo smiled and decided to do the same.

'Pleasure to meet you Miss Couffaine. Hugo Agreste.'

As soon as the surname Agreste hit Estelle's ears, she froze in shock. Did he just say he's an Agreste? The son of Marinette Agreste? Her idol? The famous fashion designer she looks up to on a daily basis?

'Did you just say Agreste?!'

Hugo nodded, she could tell by the slight chuckle after his nod that he got asked that question alot.

'Oh my goodness, I can't believe it. I'm talking to Marinette Agreste's son. I'm a huge fan, I love all her designs and watch all her fashion shows.'

'Glad to hear all of that about my mum, I'm sure she'd love to see one of her fans, the security guards are real strict about fans seeing my mum but she doesn't really mind talking to her fans as long as they don't go berserk on her, which I hope you won't.'

Estelle knew Hugo was only joking but she felt the need to tell him anyways.

'Of course I wouldn't. I just want to see her and get an autograph like any normal fan would.'

'How about you come over my place after school? I could fix your phone and you could meet my mum.'

Estelle felt like she was on cloud 9. Not only did she meet Marinette Agreste's son but he was also willing to allow her into his house to meet his mother. She just hoped this wasn't a dream which she'll wake up from any moment.

'Really?! I would love that! Thank you so much!'

Estelle stayed in a good mood throughout the whole day, even when she and Hugo got caught by a teacher and sent them to detention for skipping class, she didn't mind, she just wanted the school day to be over with so she could go to Hugo's place and meet her idol, Marinette Agreste.

But meeting her wasn't the only thing Estelle wanted. She wanted to spend more time with Hugo, get to know him more, talk to him more, laugh with him more and just be around him. There was something about Hugo that drew her more to him, he made her stop thinking about that day and about Chase, it was time for her to finally move on from the past.
