I Hate You

At 4:00 AM, Marinette was unable to get to sleep & she stayed up for the rest of the night, studying for her final exam

She had bags under her eyes & she yawned, still continuing to type on her computer

Socqueline groaned & opened her eyes, seeing the bright glare of the laptop shining in her eyes

Socqueline: Ugh.. Marinette.. what are you still doing up? It's only 4:00 AM.

Marinette: Sorry, Socqueline, but I can't go to sleep. I still need to study for the final exam.

Socqueline: What..? But you're never up this late. What's going on?

Marinette: I'm sorry, but I just really need to study.

Socqueline: But Marinette, you're never up this late. Is this because of what happened at the renaissance fair yesterday?

Marinette stopped typing on the computer & sighed, slamming it shut & climbing under the covers of her bed

Marinette: Yeah, I guess you could say it is because of that.

Socqueline: Because Luka brought Fei to the renaissance fair?

Marinette: Yeah. And I just, really didn't feel comfortable with it.

Socqueline: Would you say that you're jealous of Fei?

Marinette: I mean, a little bit. Fei & Luka are childhood friends & he's my boyfriend. Fei knows way more about Luka than I do.

Socqueline: Oh. Well, you should get some sleep so you can turn in your exam for tomorrow.

Marinette: Yeah, you're right.

Marinette climbed under the covers & fell asleep

As the clock turned to 8:30 AM, Marinette's alarm clock beeped loudly & she turned it off, groaning & opening her eyes

Marinette: Ugh.. I'm so tired..

She yawned loudly & stretched her arms, suddenly hearing her phone chiming

She grabbed it from the dresser, seeing that Luka was calling her

She rubbed her eyes & answered the call, putting the phone to her ear

Marinette: Hello?

Luka: Hey, Marinette. I hope I'm not waking you up right now.

Marinette: No, I just woke up just now. But, what's up?

Luka: I was wondering if we could talk. You seemed pretty upset at me yesterday at the renaissance fair the other night.

Marinette: Oh, yeah. There's some stuff I need to tell you too, Luka. We can meet up at the cafe in front of the university.

Luka: Okay, I'll be on my way. See you in a few minutes.

Marinette: Yeah, see you.

She hung up the call & sighed, climbing off of her bed & rummaging through her drawer for clothes
