Marinette's P.O.V

It was only 9.50am on a Sunday morning of August and my lips had already melted into a frown.
"What's with the look?"
Alya asked as I chomped on my breakfast angrily.

Earlier

"Marinette!!!"
My mom called from the kitchen.
"Yeah?"
"Your dad and I are going to California for my sister's wedding."
I was a bit shocked but managed to keep my cool.
"When?"
"Twenty minutes from now.Since we're going to be closing the shop.I'm letting you stay with Mr.Gabriel."
I spat my water.
"What?!"
With Mr.Gabriel?!?!
That means Adrien's gonna be there!!!
Omg omg omg
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO???
"F-For how long?"
"Oh ,right.Your uncle in China is going to have a huge meeting about making a restaurant and developing a bussiness in Chicago.
So let's see.....A month or two."
My soul was going to float right out of my body.
How am I going to survive this?
Seeing my enemy 24/7??
I

WILL

DIE

"Anyways.Get your things ready cause the car will be picking you up this 10am."
Mom smiles at me.
"Why can't I just stay with Alya??"
"She said she'll be busy for the month as her brother will be visiting her."
"But why with Adrien?"
"It's because Mr.Gabriel is a trusted friend of mine!"

Present
~.~.~

"Alya.."
I sigh and grit my teeth.
"Hmm?"
My bestfriend hummed.
"Why did you lie to my mom?"
"About what?"
She innocently asks.

"You don't have a brother!"
I exclaimed and gripped on the table sheets to prevent myself from grabbing Alya's arms.

"Well...It was your horror of being with Adrien for a week in a house and it came true.
Except you'll be with him for two months."
She gave me a smug look.
I groaned in frustration and dropped my head into my hands.
"Whyyyy..."
Then the sound of knocking echoed through the house.

*Knock Knock*

"It's Natalie, private agent of Mr.Gabriel Agreste.We have come to pick you up."
A female said through the door.
"A-Ah yes!I'll be right there!!"
I replied and shot a glare at Alya who was smirking.
I grabbed my duffel bag and opened the door.
There stood a lady with her black hair tied into a bun and she was wearing a formal suit.
"Marinette Dupain-Cheng ,am I right?"
She inquires while pushing her glasses up her nose.
"Yes!Nice to meet you!"
"What a very polite girl!"
She flashed me a small grin.
Natalie brought me to the door of the car and I hopped in the left backseat.
"Bye girl!Hope you'll survive!"
Alya waves me goodbye and walks away.

"Do put on your seatbelt.Mr.Gabriel would worry even a little scratch that would be visible on you."
Natalie requests and I clicked my seatbelt.
. . . . .

Minutes passed and we arrived at the Agreste Mansion.
I got out of the vehicle and took out my bag from the trunk.
In front of me was a very large manor.
Natalie led me into the house and into the big living room.
A man with eyeglasses was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.
"Mr.Gabriel.The guest has arrived."
Natalie noted him and the man, also known as Gabriel, jumped and rushed to me.
"Hello Marinette!"
He gleefully greets.
"Hi Mr.Gabriel!Nice to meet you!"
I neatly greet back and smile.

"Just like your mother said.You're so respectful!I heard that you would be staying here for two months."
He said and observed me.
"Snacks will be ready in 15 minutes. Please select a comfortable dress."
Gabriel grinned and pointed at my outfit.
I was currently wearing a hoodie, jeans, high tops,dark make up, and ear peircings.
"Oh sorry!I forgot to change."
I apologize.
"Natalie already laid a few dresses on your bed so please pick one and—
Adrien!"
The blond man yelled and footsteps tapped on the floor.
There in front of the door frame was none other than Adrien Agreste.
"You're classmates with Marinette, right?"
Gabriel calmly asks his son.
"What is MariTrash doing here?"
Adrien sneers in front of my face.
"Why do you need to hiss at me, AdriPig?"
I spat back.

"Adrien.Please bring Marinette to her room."
Gabriel sighed.
Adrien scoffed before turning his back to me.
"You coming or not?"
My attention snapped to the blond boy.
I quickly picked up my bags and followed beside him.
As we were walking down the hallway, something blocked my foot and I tripped.
I fell flat on my face.
"You bastard..."
I cursed under my breath.
"I'm sorry.What was that?"
Adrien mocked.
"Nothing."
I muttered and pushed myself back up.

We finally arrived at my room.
I enter and set my bags on the floor right beside a desk.
"My room's in front of yours."
He says and leaves.
I look around my room.
There was a king-sized bed under a staircase and the stairs led to a mini library on top of a hanging balcony.
My bed had black covers and red pillows.
There was also a red sofa accompanied with black and red dotted pillows.
The walls were painted light blue and a black desk was situated beside my bed.
Shelves aligned the wall above my cushion.
They had a red vase on the side filled with roses.
Teddy bears were stacked in a corner of the room.

I placed a picture frame of me and my mom on the desk and gawked at my bed.
There were three dresses neatly pressed and ironed on the blankets.
I remembered what Gabriel said and check out the outfits.
There was a spaghetti strapped blouson, short sundress and a-line dress.
I chose the a-line dress and slipped it on.
It was colored black and pink.
I took off my ear peircings and replaced it with my usual red earings.
I exchanged my shoes with matching black flats and arranged my hair into long pigtails.
Erasing my make up,I brush light eyeshadow and gently rub lip balm on my lips.

"Marinette. Snacks are ready."
Natalie called through the door.
"Okay!Thanks, I'll be right there."
I reply and organize my clothes in a dresser that was provided next to the study table.
I rush to the door and exit the room.
Walking down the stairs, I arrive in the dining room and see Adrien, Natalie,Gabriel and.......
Another boy?
He looked like Adrien very much.
Blond hair and green eyes.
He looked at me and stared.

Who is he?
