(Y/N)'s POV
It's a cold morning. It's been three weeks since Nath and I've been given our assignment. We pulled a few all-nighters, drinking Starbucks coffee to keep us awake.
I get out of my bed to go take a shower. I later come out and put on my clothes. I wear a sweater that says, 'Why Be Normal?' With the 'normal' word backwards. I put on black jeans and my (f/c) Converse shoes. I let my (h/c) hair down so it can dry up. I go downstairs to eat breakfast.
"Morning dad!" I give him a big bear hug and a smile. (Reference anyone?)
"Morning boy!" Yeah, my dad calls me boy because I act like a tomboy and he originally expected a boy from my mom. He returns the hug and the smile. He pulls out the two pancakes he made for me, puts them on a plate, putts butter and powdered sugar, then serves it to me. (I don't like syrup. 😛)
"Thank you!" I dig in. And I'm pretty sure I finished it in five minutes, after all, I only drank coffee last night. When I finished, I grabbed my backpack with our poster inside and wished my dad goodbye, then started to walk to school.

Nath's POV
Adrien and Nino just finished presenting their poster. (Y/N) and I wait patiently for our turn, eager to see what our classmates think.
"Nathanael and (Y/N). Please present your poster." Mrs. Davis gives us a hand signal to come to the front of the class. (Y/N) grabs our poster and follows me to the front. She holds it up on one end, and I hold it up on the other.
Adrien's POV (didn't see that coming did ya?)
I sit down and pay attention to the next person presenting.
"Nathanael and (Y/N). Please present your poster." Nathanael and a girl walk to the front of the classroom. I guess she's (Y/N). She's actually really cute.
"As you can see, (Y/N)'s face is on the left, while mine is on the right." Nathanael starts.
"We decided to draw ourselves in an anime style." (Y/N) continued. She moved some of her hair out of her face. Quite cutely I might add. "I added some musical notes and my sketchbook here, signifying that I love music and drawing." (Y/N) explained, gesturing to the things she had mentioned.
"On my side, I have added my sketchbook as well, along with a few normal books, indicating that I love drawing and reading." Nathanael explained his side. I honestly was only paying attention to (Y/N). I hope I wasn't staring at her.
"Thank you Nathanael and (Y/N). You may take your seats." Mrs. Davis seemed absolutely delighted by their presentation. She definitely didn't give us that look of approval. They went back to their seats.
Nath's POV
As (Y/N) and I finished our presentation, I saw Adrien staring dreamily at (Y/N). I don't think she noticed, but I definitely did. It honestly made me a little jealous inside, and I didn't know why. (Y/N) is my best friend, I don't like her more than that. Do I?
It was lunch. I still tried to get the 'liking (Y/N)' topic out of my head before I think about something I might regret. We both sat on the bench within the school.
"Do you think our project will be hung up on the school bulletin?" I stopped eating my ham sandwich, to look at her. She was hanging upside down from the bench, eating her sandwich.
"I really hope so!" She flipped right side up, looking a little dizzy from being upside down too long. "I might as well go check." She shrugged and got up. She threw her plastic from her sandwich to the nearby trash can, from a few feet away.
(Y/N)'s POV
I walked to the opposite side of the school yard, to find the bulletin. My eyes scanned the board, overwhelmed by all the school papers and such. My eyes finally landed on the first place poster. 'Nathanael and (Y/N)' it read, and low and behold, our beautiful artwork for all to see.
"Yes! I can't believe it! Wait until I tell-" I turned around and was cut off by a pair of emerald green orbs.
"Hi, um, (Y/N), was it? I really liked your poster with Nathanael. You guys have some amazing talent!" Adrien was the most popular boy in school, thanks to his rich, designer dad and his looks and charisma. All the girls in Paris loved and admired him, well, except me. Even the devil herself likes him, and will do anything to make him hers, besides changing her personality. So I personally know not to get in her way.
"Erm, thanks?" I sounded like I was asking a question. I tried to walk away from the scene, avoiding the awkwardness. But, his arm stopped me.
"Wait, I was wondering if you would want to hang out at the park some time." He looked around, trying to avoid eye contact. God, this is getting weird. Why would he want to go out with me? Doesn't matter now. I don't like him, not even a little. I guess he really likes me if he never asked another girl out before. How do I know? A girl would've been screaming to the whole world, "ADRIEN AGRESTE ASKED ME OUT!" I giggle at this. But I did it out loud.
"So is that a yes?" He looked really happy. Dang it. I think I sent the wrong message to him, getting his hopes up. Well, it wouldn't hurt to go out on a date with him. But, I know my dad wouldn't like it, knowing that he 'ships' me and my tomato child. I curse in my head.
"Yeah, that would be cool." I tried to hide the 'no' expression from my face.
"Great! I'll see you Wednesday night at 8?" I saw pure happiness in his eyes.
"Sure." I walked away. Saying 'WTF WTF WTF WTF' repeatedly in my head. I went back to Nathanael, I started to facepalm repeatedly also.
"Oh my gosh, you would not believe what just h-" Nath cut me off.
"Don't worry, I saw the whole thing." He seemed a little irritated when he said that. I brushed that thought aside.
"What do you think I should do?" I looked at him with curiosity. For some reason, he stared into my eyes.
"How about we talk about this tonight at a sleepover?" He suggested.
"Sounds great! You can come to my house!" I yelled excitedly, maybe even a bit loudly. That night, I pondered on the question,
do I like Nathanael?
