" You have one day to work on a fashion piece of your own design. in ten hours, your finished presentation will be judged by the great fashion designer, Gabriel Agreste, the father of our student, Adrien Agreste, who will be modelling the winning design." Principle Damocles announced to the class.
I looked to my left and saw Marinette getting excited and gushing about how she'll work hard to impress Adrien with her design. My gaze turned to Adrien, who was nervous about the upcoming competition.
"The project today is derby hats!" Damocles announced.
Marinette groaned in dismay. I noticed that Chloe was giving the thumbs down to Marinette while Sabrina giggled. Sofia and Diana were excited and started sketching down ideas.
Once class was finished, everyone who was participating left to come up with designs. I noticed Marinette pacing around in thought, looking at her designs while Alya was looking through her ideas.
"Hey, Sunshine!" Diana called as she and Daniella arrived.
"Hey. You guys taking part in the project?" I asked.
"Yup. We've been sketching some ideas, though none are eye catching." Diana replied as she looked through her ideas.
Before I could reply, Marinette started her outburst.
"Derby hat, derby hat, derby hat, derby hat...! I don't have any derby hat designs. I've got top hats, caps, even two-horned hats! Need a beret? I'm your girl. A sombrero? No problem-o. But a derby?! You know what? It won't even matter, 'cause I'll probably make a total fool of myself at the event, most likely trip over our derby and collapse on Mr. Agreste; give him a full-blown concussion and Adrien will hate me! I'll never be a world-renowned fashion designer. MY LIFE IS OVER!"
She collapsed onto Alya's lap, who comforted her.
"How can she call herself a fashion designer when she can't design a derby hat?" Daniella rolled her eyes.
"Are you sure you two are rivals?" I asked.
Diana shrugged. "It's more one sided on her end."
"Uh huh." I responded.
"All this over a derby hat?" Alya asks, "Let me see your sketchpad, girl." the bluenette hands her sketchpad over to her, "There must be something in here."
"Forget it, I'm a disaster zone. I'll probably mess everything up in the end." Marinette looks depressed.
If you talk like that. I thought.
"Wow, Alya, those are some awesome designs." Adrien comments as he leans against the wall, scaring Marinette into hiding, "I didn't know you had such mad skills."
"Uh, thanks Adrien, but I can't take the credit. These sick designs belong to Marinette." Alya gestures to the bluenette, who was hiding behind the bench, waving and smiling creepily, "Off the chain, right?"
"You're super talented, Marinette. You seriously have a good chance of winning." Adrien says, causing Marinette to blush.
"Well, um, yeah! We like-um, designs that-um..." Marinette trails off as Alya makes motions to her, "Go upwards?" Adrien raises an eyebrow in confusion as the girls and I sighed. "Um, while stopping...I mean, uh-Thanks?"
"Sure, and uh, good luck. Maybe I'll be wearing your derby at my father's next photoshoot." Adrien leaves as Marinette watches him with a creepy and love-struck stare.
"He said he'll wear my derby hat! Maybe one day, I'll give him all the presents I've been working on every day." Marinette squealed.
"Simp." Daniella scoffed.
