Marinette POV
How can any human being be so perfect? His hair look as golden as the morning sun, his eyes sparkle such a bright green that they put the rarest emeralds to shame, and his voice...just hearing it feels like I'm listening to a song sung by an angel.
"Um....Marinette?"
Yes my angel?
"Marinette??"
Huh....what?
"Marinette?!" I jumped out of my trance and looked over at Adrien, who I just realized has been trying to get my attention. "Are you okay? I was asking what you thought of my idea for the science project."
My face starts to burn and I pray that Adrien doesn't notice. "I'm sorry....I...was j-just...lost in thought. What was your idea again?"
"Well...I thought we could try experiment with certain elements of the periodic table and try to explain the different reactions and outcomes they have on one another."
"That....that sounds great. We should try that." I started writing down his idea in my notebook and picked up my textbook to flip to the periodic table. I can feel Adrien staring at me for some reason, but I'm too embarrassed to look him in the eye after my daydreaming.
"Hey Marinette? Are you going to the dance?" He asked suddenly.
I froze, I wasn't expecting that question from him and honestly I'm not too sure how to reply. "I haven't fully decided yet, but it sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun."
"Do you.....plan on going with anyone if you do?"
This was it, my chance to ask Adrien to be my date to the dance. It was practically given to me! Now all I have to do is ask him the simple question. It can't be that hard right?
"Actually I was thinking of going with.....with....m-my friends. I didn't really have anyone else in mind."
WHAT AM I DOING?!!
"Oh okay....well it would really be fun if you do consider to go." He smiled and I felt like my heart would explode. "Just out of curiosity though. If someone did...ask you to the dance...would you say yes?"
"Well....yeah I would, but I doubt anyone would ask me..." I looked down at my textbook, hoping the embarrassment on my face wasn't so visible.
"Well what if I asked-" The bell had rung, which meant it was time for students to head towards their first class. Adrien sighed and packed his things into his bag and I did the same. "Do you want to continue our project after school?"
"Yeah that would be fine." While we walked out the library and towards our first class, I couldn't help but wonder what Adrien was about to say before the bell had rung.

Normal POV
During their lunch period, Marinette and Alya grabbed their trays and found an empty table for the two of them to sit.
"...and then we went to class." Marinette finished explaining what happened that morning to Alya. "Once again, I completely blew my chances with Adrien..."
Alya watched her friend bang her head on the table in frustration. "Girl you're overreacting, I don't think you completely blew your chances. Just go up to him and try again."
"Alya do you have any idea how hard it was to ask him the first time?" Marinette sighed and began moving her food around with her fork. "Let's face it....it's hopeless."
"I wouldn't say that so soon. When's the last time you checked your phone?"
"Um...this morning. Why?"
"Check it now."
Marinette raised an eyebrow at her friend before pulling her phone out of her pocket and unlocking the screen. There wasn't much there, a few notifications, reminders, and a text from Adrien.
Wait......a text from Adrien??!
Marinette screeched and nearly threw her phone in the air and scrambled to get it. She frantically clicked on the message and read what it said.
A: Hi Marinette, this is Adrien. I got your number from one of our friends cause I wanted to ask you something. Its about the dance. Can you meet me at the front of the school this afternoon?
"W-what but h-how...and w-when???" Marinette was finding it hard to function.
"Calm down girl." Alya chuckled slightly. "What did Adrien say?"
"He...he says that he has something to ask me and to meet him at the front of the school." Marinette stared at her best friend. "Wait a minute how did you know I had a text from Adrien."
"Well....he might have asked me for your number during our last class together." Alya replied with a grin. "I didn't want to tell you until I was sure but this proves it! Adrien wants to ask you to the dance!"
"What makes you so sure?"
"What else would he want to talk to you about involving the dance?"
"Maybe he needed advice on what to wear, although I doubt he would need help with that he always looks so amazing...."
"Marinette...focus." Alya snapped her fingers in front of the blunette to catch her attention. "For once have a little faith that there's a possibility Adrien could be into you. You need to stop being so negative."
Marinette thought about what Alya was saying and she was right. She needed to look on the bright side of things and have a little hope. "You're right Alya, I should have hope I'll text him back right now." She typed the message agreeing to meet him, but hesitating in hitting the send button, before she could try to think of a way out Alya reached over and pressed it instead. "Alya??!"
"You hesitated." The blogger said simply. "I'm not letting you back out of this."
Marinette groaned, but couldn't help feeling a bit giddy on the inside. She couldn't wait until the afternoon. Unknown to her a certain red head with glasses had been listening to most of the conversation. She pulled out her phone and began texting a certain blonde.
