Miraculous: A New Beginning (COMPLETED; BOOK 1)

Marinette (27)

___AFTER JUMPING ON ROOFS___
So after Cat and I finished getting enough footage for the video, I headed back to Adrien's house. I jumped through the open window, landing near Adrien's bed. Tikki flew out of my earrings, turning them black again. I handed her a another cookie and walked around Adrien's room. The last time I was here was when Lila was akumatized,so I didn't get a good look. I saw stairs, leading up to a book area. Wow, so many books. I head back down to were Tikki was.

"So", I Said as the red spotted kwami finished the cookie. "Do you think that video will be a success?" Tikki nodded in agreement and flew into my purse, leaving the room.

I was roaming around, heading to the foyer until I ran into someone. I rubbed my head, when I saw a familiar pair of green eyes and blonde hair.

"A-Adrien", I said, looking at the ground.

"Marinette, sorry about that." I could feel his eyes looking down on me. "Here", I looked up to his hand extended for mine. I took it, still looking down at the floor, blushing madly.

"It's- it's alright", I said, looking into his eyes. "Thanks",I said, looking to see that he was still holding my hand. "Um", I looked away, shaking. I guess Adrien felt me shaking because the male let go. After a minute of silence, Adrien spoke.

"Not to be rude or anything", he said calmly. I turned around to face him. "But why are you still here? I mean, why aren't you with the others?"

Shoot...Think of something fast. "I was using the bathroom. What about you?"

"Nathalie needed me for something." Then we heard a door opened, and saw our friends coming in. Alya whispered something to Galaxy and giggled, in her response.

I walked down the stairs, greeting my bestie and my new friend.

"So, how was it", I asked Alya. She gave me a look. "What?" Alya dragged Galaxy and I to a corner in the foyer, so the boys don't heard us.

"Don't 'what' me", my ombré hair friend said. "What we're you and Adrien talking about?"

"Oh, um...He was asking why I wasn't with you, and I told him that I was in the bathroom. I asked him the same question and he said that he had to do something for Nathalie", I stated.

She looked at me, with a confused look. "No, he went to the bathroom."

Galaxy looked at Alya then me. "Maybe, he was about to go with us but Nathalie called him for something", she suggested. I don't know why, I only know the girl for two days and I could tell she was lying. Both Alya and I nodded, Alya left to go talk to the boys. I stayed, looking at violet eye girl.
