Marinette happily walked to school, taking her time and enjoying the nice weather. It was one of the rare occasions when she wasn't late for once. Just as she made it the school she felt a hand wrap around her arm and roughly drag her behind a tree. Turning around she came face to face with a very unamused looking Alya.
"Morning Alya!" She chimed.
"Don't 'morning Alya' me, you have a lot of explaining to do!" Alya had a stern look on her face.
To this Marinette only cocked her head to the side and looked at her confused, so Alya pressed on.
"Yesterday I went over to your house and I heard you and Adrien up in your room. Care to explain."
"Oh, so you already know then!" Marinette's face only brightened. "I didn't have any time to tell you yesterday so I was planning on telling you today!"
"So," Alya said, "what exactly happened. One second you can't even speak to him and the next you're doing...that. How the heck did things between you two escalate so quickly!"
"Well, I had actually been thinking about it for a while now, I really wanted to try it out. Then yesterday after school when I saw Adrien all by himself I knew that was my chance, so I gathered up all my courage and asked him."
Alya's eyes grew wide like saucers. "You asked him! You just went up and asked him!"
Marinette let out a little squeal and jumped around. "And he said yes! Can you believe it!"
"No...I can't! Who would go ahead and say yes to that kind of thing!" Alya couldn't believe what she was hearing. She had never imagined Adrien to be that kind of person, and she definitely never pegged Marinette of all people to be into that kind of stuff.
"It was truly amazing," Marinette continued, not hearing Alya's comment, "I had wanted to try it out but I never expected that I would enjoy it as much as I did. And you know what, Adrien even said that I was a natural!"
"S-so then..." Alya had no clue what she was supposed to say in this kind of situation. "I take it you liked it?
Marinette nodded her head furiously at this.
"A lot! That was only my first time but Adrien taught me so many different poses and positions. He told me to practice them for the next time he comes over!" Marinette's eyes then glazed over and grew dreamy. "It all felt so perfect and right, our bodies moving in sync with one another as we went back and forth."
Alya tried to form words but her brain was still trying to process this information.
"Do...do your parents know about this..."
"Of course," Marinette replied, "After Adrien went home I explained to them in detail everything we had done, I even display some of the techniques I learned. They were really proud of me for trying something new."
Alya nearly choked on the air that she breathed, mouth hanging open as she started back at her friend in disbelief. How was she even supposed to respond to that! She didn't even get a chance to respond though, because Marinette suddenly grabbed her hands and brought them up.
"You should join us next time!"
"ME!" She yanked her hands from Marinette's and took a step back. "What are you thinking, girl!"
"Oh come on," Marinette said, "don't be like that. Adrien wouldn't mind, and you might actually like it."
"I'm really trying to respect your decisions right now, but don't even think about dragging me into all this!"
Marinette gave her a confused look. "If you don't want to do it with me and Adrien then we could always just do it together by ourselves."
"WHAT!" Alya lost the feeling in her legs and had to hold onto the tree beside her for support, staring back at her friend. How could Marinette possibly be saying all this while still keeping that innocent expression on her face. "What...how...why...ARE YOU CRAZY!"
Just then the bell rang out across the yard and Marinette's expression grew panicked as she began to jog towards the school.
"Hurry up Alya, we don't want to be late."
Alya just stood there by the tree, staring at the back of her friend in disbelief.
She really didn't expect Marinette to be that kind of person.
