Before todays chap, I wanted to thank you all cause Balance its at 26.1K reads, and almost 1k votes. Thx to all as I cannot believe so many have read my story. Anyway I give you Anansi.

(Y/n pov)

"So you coming or not?" I asked Adrien as I got my stuff from his room. "Nino, Alya and Marinette asked me to chat, and I already told them I wasn't allowed out." As Adrien said that, his computer started ringing; as Adrien answered, I waved from behind him as, on the screen, the three looked to be at Alya's apartment. 

"Hey, Y/n, where are you headed?" Alya asked me when she saw me. "Liberty, I have practice. Have fun, guys." 

"Wait, I thought you and Adrien weren't allowed to go out?" Nino asked as he put two and two together, "We're not, so I better not see anything on the ladyblog. Cause if I go down, I'm taking you all with me." I finished with a wink before walking to my room.

"So ready to go, Yin?" I asked my kwami as I put my bag on and locked the door to my room. "I still don't understand why I have to, can't Yang do this?" Yin complained, and I rolled my eyes. 

"Please, I promise if something happens, Yang will help me defeat whoever." I pleaded, and Yang did as well. "Fine, but you don't have kitty section practice today," Yin said as she glared at me. "You're right, I don't. I'm just practicing, trying to tell Luka how I feel, cause I feel there is a greater force against me. Like it's always watching me, and I feel it now."

"Besides, maybe one of these days I'll be able to tell him, just give me time." I continued, as I walked through the portal, leaving my home. Before I walked to Liberty, I stopped at the DuPain-Chen bakery to get some food for Jules, Lu, and Rose.

"Hello Y/n, how are you?" Miss DuPain-Chen asked me as I entered the bakery, "Hello Sabine, I'm good, you?" "I'm great, so what would you like?" "Can I just have two dozen Macarons, and-" I trailed off as I looked at the options. "The Chocolate and strawberry eclairs?" Sabine asked, as it was always part of my usual routine. 

"Yeah, of course," I answered and handed Sabine the cash. I thanked Sabine, who then gave me the bag of treats, but it looked like she wanted to ask me something. "May I ask why you always get the two eclairs?" She asked me hesitantly, "They were my parents' favourites, from what I heard." "I see, I didn't expect Mr. Agreste to be into sweets." She told me sadly, "Well, my birth parents, I don't even know my dad's favourite sweet treat. Anyway, thank you for the treat, I'll be back."

(Lil Head Cannon: Y/n loves the DuPain-Chen Bakery so much it's her go-to treat spot every time, breakfast, lunch, after patrol, to the point where she is an unofficial VIP, since she's been a very loyal customer and will confront Karens if needed.)

...

I handed Yin and Yang their eclairs before walking onto the Liberties deck. "Hey Y/n, ready to go to the fireworks show?" Rose asked me and I nodded, "Yeah, what's the plan? Where are the twins?" I asked her as I noticed the twins were nowhere to be seen.

"I'm not sure, Anarka said. "They were planning something, but she left a while ago," Rose told me, and I nodded. Rose and I chatted for 10-15 minutes while enjoying the Macarons.

"Hey, N/n, Rose." Lu greeted me as he and Jules walked over to where I was with Rose. "Sup." "Hello."

"So secret song?" I asked as I stood up, handing the twins each a macaroon. "Something like that, anyway, let's go before it gets too dark." Lu simply answered while Jules looked away. Rose hugged Jules' arm as the two walked off Liberty. Lu and I followed behind, and as we walked, I felt our hands brush against each other. But nothing happened, and it was frustrating me. 'You can do this.' I said to myself as I grabbed Lu's hand. He didn't say anything, but he held my hand a bit tighter. I smiled, but my moment was interrupted as I got a notification. I looked to see if Adrein had texted me.
