Bandages Cover the Heart

"I want camembert." The Kwami floats around the boy's blond hair complaining about his hunger for the umpteenth time that morning.

"Not now Plagg, I'm looking for my keys." Adrien says, frustrated. He had only gotten them yesterday, where could they have possibly gone.

He got onto the floor, his eyes scan the underneath of the bed. A slight silver glint catches his eye. He reaches out his arm and grasps the cold metal in his hands.

"Got them!" He exclaims in triumph. The keys clank together grabbing Plagg's attention.

"Uuuu, shiny!" He quickly flies towards Adrien's hand and tries to eat the keys out of his hands.

"Plagg no, I'm gonna be late." The boy hold out his white button down upon for the Kwami to hide in.

"Fine but you owe me." He grumbles but gets into the shirt.

"Ha for what? Not eating my keys. I don't think so." The boy laughs and grabs his bag, slinging it over his shoulder.

He walks through the mansion passing his father's assistant.

"Have a nice day Nathalie." He nods in her direction and she nods back.

"You too Adrien. Remember you have a shoot after school today. " she reminded him and continued to type like her life depended on it.

He lets out a sigh. "Of course."

He pushes the door out and unlocks his car. He pulls the door toward him and slides in. Plagg flies out and sits in the passenger's  seat.

Adrien pulls the belt over him and starts the car and speeds off towards the school.

"You know Adrien, Ladybug said she was moving. Maybe she'll be at your school." Plagg says gnawing at the package of a Camembert wheel.

"Oh come on Plagg. We both know that wouldn't change the fact the we don't know each other's identities. Besides there are tons of Schools in Paris, the likely chance of her even going to my school is like 100 to 1." Adrien shot back. He turns the wheel, and the car glides into the student parking lot.

"Whatever you say Romeo." Plagg flies back into the boy's shirt as Adrien slings his bag back over his shoulder.

"Whatever." He pulls the handle and the door pops open.

"Marinette! You're gonna be late!" The high pitched yelling of her Red kwami causes her to fall out of her bed.

After shrieking she looks up at her clock. 7:50.

"Tikki why didn't you wake me earlier!" She stumbles over to her dresser. She pulls out her shirt and pants and quickly pulls them on after taking her Pajamas off. She sloppily puts her hair into her usual pigtails and slides all of her books into her bag.

She throws her bag over her shoulder and says, "Come one Tikki! Big day!" She rushes to the kitchen where she kisses her ma and pa on the cheek.

"Bye sweetie, have a good day! Don't forget the macarons." Her father says and gives her the rectangular box.

She thanks him and rushes out the door.

"You got ready in record time Marinette." Tiki says excitedly as the bluenette ran down the street to her new school.

"Tikki you've got to say hidden." She hushes the kwami and clasps her purse shut. Tikki only pops it back open though.

"Mariette, I know, I was just saying." Tikki says and flies out of her purse and into the back of Marinette's blazer.

"Just stay hidden please. I've only been Ladybug a year I don't need the secret coming out this early." she smiles as she steps foot onto  school property.

She looks around a little lost. "Wow Tikki these kids are super different than the one's at my old school." She says looking around. She spots a girl and a boy talking to each other. Th girl with ombre hair and glasses talking excitedly about something on her phone.

"Just go up and introduce yourself. It'll be fine." She says sweetly and quietly before ducking back down into the fabric. Marinette nods and takes a big step forwards.

"Um, hello. My name's Marinette. I'm new." She smiles at them and sticks her hand out.

"Hey. I'm Alya and this is Nino. It's nice to see a new face here. Everyone here has known each other for as long as I can remember." She smiles and shakes Marinette's hand.

"Every one here is so different. Back at my old school everyone was the same. Rich and snooty." She chuckles.

"Yeah well we here don't like to judge. Except for Chloe over there." She Points to a girl in a white Jacket with a black and yellow shirt. "She's the Mayor's daughter. She think's that just because her father is the mayor she can tell anyone and everyone what to do. But don't listen to her. She doesn't know the difference between left or right." The three chuckle.

"Yeah, other than her the only person that may be any different is my main man Adrien. His father is that famous fashion designer. But he doesn't like to acknowledge it." Nino says.

"Wait. Adrien Agreste? I love his dads work it's so amazing." She gushes.

A car door slams and the three look over to see the blond haired boy throw his keys into his bag.

"Hey why don't we introduce you guys." Alya suggests nudging Nino.

"Uh yeah you should totally meet him." Nino says getting what Alya is suggesting.

Marinette looks over and notices the girl named Chloe hanging all over him. The school bell rings and she jumps.

"I really should get to class." Marinette says and they both nod.

"We can show you girl." Alya links arms with Marinette and the three of them walk into the school with their heads laughing.

"Okay class we have a new student joining us today. Her name is Marinette Dupain Cheng. Marinette why don't you say a few things about yourself." The teacher says.

Marinette puts her pencil down and stands up. She looks over at Alya and she gives two thumbs up and a smile.

"Okay uh. Well my Parents own the bakery that's just about a block or so away. Um... I want to be a fashion designer when I grow up. And um... oh I'm half French and half Chinese." She smiles softly and then sits back down.

"Okay now on with the class." She turns to the board and starts to teach her lesson.

Soon enough it's the end of the day.

"Hey Alya do you want to come to my house? Free desserts and you can help me with the science." Marinette asks her already best friend.

"I would love to. But first we have to stop at Adrien's car. He wanted to borrow my notes for this class he ran out of during one of those akuma attacks." She says.

"That's okay." Marinette smiles and they walk over to the boys car.

Nino and Adrien are talking about something when the two show up.

"Hey dudette's what's up?" Nino asks, adverting his attention towards the girls.

"Adrien borrowed my notes and I need them back." Alya says. Marinette drops her Pencil

"Oh yeah I forgot." Adrien goes to open the door at the same time Marinette reaches down to grab her pencil.

The door hits Marinette in the head and causes her to fall onto her back.

"Oh my god Marinette!" Alya kneels down and sits her up.

"Are you okay? I'm so so sorry." Adrien kneels down to her level and grabs her arms softly.

Marinette squeezes her eyes shut tightly and brings her hand up to her head. "Do you always go hitting the new girls on the head with your door Agreste?"
