The Masquerade Ball

Chapter 3

HAHAHAHA OK SO I MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN I HAD A BOOK AND SO I KINDA FORGOT TO UPDATE IT BUT I MEAN- PSH- ITS OK. I'm actually REALLY busy with school so I'm most likely not going to be able to post daily but I'll try i guess XD
To those of you reading- why? I'm reading over my past chapters and cringing. Anyways, imma just skip the whole POV with Andrew going to school and move towards when Elvira walked in because those of you who have watched miraculous know what happens with the gum and stuff so I mean... Well, except for the whole 'how he got miraculous' thing. For that, i'll be including just a short reason XD

Ah, also, swearing- probably not intense, but you never know.

ANYWAYS. Please excuse my absence and enjoy my ridiculous attempt at a story. LOVE YOU GUYS

(Andrews POV)

Ring, Ring, Ring.... "Monsieur Adrien come back to the house, please?" I laugh, my father's secretary is like a second mom to me- but not like a wife to my father. "Sorry Beth but I'm going to school today. Tell my father something, please, I'm begging?" I hear Beth sigh through my heavy breathing. Running to school is harder than I thought. "FINE." She finally says "But you have to eat EVERYTHING on your plate when you get home. A proper diet is necessary for a model to keep their form, Adrien. Don't disappoint me!" The phone beeps, she ended the call. I sigh and look up only if to see an old man being yelled at by a police officer for walking too slow in the street.

Running up to the old man I stop the guard in the midst of his yelling. "Sir, please, if you could just understand- old age comes with less stamina." I plead. The guard rolls his eyes and sighs before opening his mouth. "Alright. Just make sure this old man gets a cane.". I smile and nod.

I mean, that shouldn't happen. It's not his fault that he can't walk fast.

The old man looks at me and cracks a soft smile "Why thank you young man! But you don't have to come with me to get a cane, go, hurry to school" He starts shooing me away. I still don't feel right just leaving him, so I reach in my pocket and hand him some money. "Here, I'm sorry I can't go with you but at least buy yourself a nice cane". I reciprocate his smile and run off.

It felt good doing something nice.

I flinch at the touch of the gum Emma placed on the chair. She told me the girl sitting there deserved it, but Emma isn't exactly the definition of honest- or righteous.

In the corner of my eye I see a girl with flowing purple hair glare at Emma with her intense violet eyes. She seems like she wants to say something, but instead is tightly holding on to her binder, as if to stop herself from attacking.

Is this the seat of that girl?

My thoughts are cut off from Emma's annoyingly loud and snarky voice. "Just in time, Elvira Arine."
I sigh internally, it's probably just another one of Emma's enemies. Who cares? I focus my attention on removing the gum- basically poking it. Who knows where her mouth has been? Who knows if this was even hers? All I know is that I saw her sticking it onto this chair, and personally, I don't want to touch it.
I hear a sweet and soft voice waver with "Emma, that's my seat."

A sickeningly sweet and harsh voice corrects the other "Was, your seat. New year, new seats- and since Andy~Wandy is sitting here-" I gag internally at her voice.

That girls voice is so different from Emma's...

I've always hated that nickname, especially when Emma says it. "I'm sitting here! And you're sitting-" she pauses and I can tell she's pointing at me. "there."

I turn just barely to face the girl Emma was talking to. Instead of your everyday girl, she's... adorable. Currently I can't make out much of her close facial features, but even from a distance you can tell how colorful this girl is. She has short, midnight blue hair tied back in two adorable pigtails. Her eyes are shadowed by her swooped bangs, hovering over those glaring blue-bell eyes. Her outfit is a fitted black jacket and white cherry blossom shirt, added with pink jeans that are folded at the ankle, and a pair of matching pink flats- the whole outfit emphasizing how petite she is.

What was her name...? Who is this girl?

"What?! Who even is 'Andy~Wandy'?" The girls eyebrows are furrowed and she stares in disbelief at Emma. "You don't know who Andrew Poliom is?! What rock are you living under?" Emma flips her golden-brown locks and sashays over to me. She grabs onto my shoulder and I hold back wince as he fake nails dig into my skin. "F.Y.I, this is MY Andy~Wandy" she puckers her lips and says in a baby voice. "He's famous Baxter Poliom's son and model, and I'M his best friend!"

Great... now everyone knows who I am. There goes living the normal life...- at least with some people..

I mentally sigh and look up to see the girl glaring at us. Us. ME. "Haha, very funny you two. Now, instead of gumming my seat, could you move?" (I changed it :P ) I see her huff at me. It's the first day I've EVER been to school and I already have a person that hates me... maybe more. "No! That's not what I-" I feel like I'm choking on my words and Emma squeezes my tightly, preventing me from continuing. The adorable girl grabs a tissue from the desk and places it on the gum once Emma pulls me away. Her and her- I'm guessing, friend, slide into the seat and whisper to each other.

I didn't know that being friends with Emma earns you a bad reputation...

But she's the only friend I have... shouldn't I stick with her?

Friend? More like brat who used to be your friend.. now she's just possessive.

I slide into my seat without looking at my table-mate and rest my head on the desk. Feeling a tap on my shoulder, I peer up- only to see a guy with tan skin, dyed blue hair, and piercing blue eyes. "You friends with Ms. Drama queen?" He points his thumb back at Emma, who's already bossing around her dark-blonde-haired "friend". I slowly nod. Seriously, I knew Emma was trouble but I didn't think her reputation would be that bad. He pats my back and offers a hand. "Name's Deuce, and I think you need some new friends dude."

______________ _______________ ________________ 

Waving 'Bye' to Deuce and sliding in the car, my father's secretary and bodyguard escorted me into the limousine and drove me back home- where I usually am solemn, but today, I'm pretty happy. I run towards my room after waving at the guard and Beth and set my bag down before hopping on my couch

Today was quite the day, huh?

Deuce had told me the girls' name, Elvira and Clio. He also had become my first friend, then he gave me some advice- to explain what really happened to Elvira. He said that if I did that, she would understand, and they would become friends.
I can't help but feel a smile creep onto my, though, the smile disappears- once I see a strange yet enchanting hexagonal box on my coffee table.

I... don't remember having this. Perhaps it's a gift from my fath- no... he wouldn't do such things... so... what is it?

Carefully but eagerly, I open the box. Blinded by a bright light, the box drops- once I open my eyes, I see... something. A black-haired man with black cat ears, a black shirt with a cat collar, black pants, and no shoes. I've never been so... curious about something. I feel speechless. What is this... person? Why is it here? Where did it come from?
My mouth drops wide open. and my eyes are peeled. "Wha.... t?" I barely whisper and squint at the figure. The cat-like human yawns, revealing his sharp teeth. "Oh." He says calmly, almost shocked that I'm in front of him. "What are you-" "Ok before you ask any questions, let me explain. 'Cause it's a pain in the ass to answer question after question after question- you got it?" I wearily nod up and down. The figure coughs. "Okay so my name's Plagg, and I'm a kwami." (we've already been through this. i'm not re-writing this scene it's like 12:30 am and I'm too tired to continue)
This whole thing is so shocking, and I haven't said a word through it all. I think I'm a bit too intrigued by this, I can feel my body buzzing with excitement. "So basically one of those balls is tonight and stuff so yeah" Plagg yawns again and scratches his stomach "Got any cheese?"
