Alya POV
I'm shaking my head at my BFF right now who hasn't calmed down since we arrived at the front of the school. We're currently waiting on Adrien who asked Mari to meet him in front cause he needed to ask her a question that he feels he had to ask in person rather than text it to her, but I'm positive I already know what he wants to ask.
All the signs were there, when he asked me for her number, the slight blush he had on his face, the way he chuckled nervously after each sentence, and how he kept rubbing the back of his head looking slightly embarrassed to the fact that I pretty much knew what he was planning to do.
I've always known that Adrien might have a thing for Marinette. Not to the extent that she likes him of course, but I can see it. That's why I always keep telling Mari to have hope. One day he'll see how special she is and then they'll both be happy.
Although, maybe I should try to keep Mar from hyperventilating before he even gets here.
"I don't know Alya..." She started to speak. "What if it's not about the dance, maybe he has to ask me about the project."
I rolled my eyes. "Mari.....for the hundred time, if this were about anything else he would have told you in that text. Don't you dare try to chicken out at the last second."
"I'm not chickening out! I'm just trying to keep other possibilities open so I dont get my hopes up."
I sighed before I noticed someone walking in our direction. "Well we're about to find out in a second."
Her eyes widened almost as if they were going to pop when she noticed Adrien walking in our direction. He approached us with a smile. "Hi Marinette, Hi Alya."
I waved while Mari stuttered out her greeting. "H..Hi Adrien."
"I'm really glad you came to meet me here Marinette. I've been wanting to ask you something and I had to do it in person." I'm a few feet away from them but I can still hear everything. "Marinette? Will you go to-"
"Adrikiiiiins!" Chloe appears and throws herself on to Adrien. "There you are! I've been looking all over for you!"
"Hey Chloe." He greeted her nicely, sometimes I feel like Adrien's too nice for his own good. "Can you give me a minute, there's something important I need to talk to Marinette about."
"She can wait." Chloe bumps Marinette to the side. "This can't."
I grabbed Marinette's arm helping her regain her balance. I never understood why Chloe acted this way or why she seemed to have it out for Marinette before I ever came to this school, but that girl is beyond a pain in my head.
Adrien sighed. "What is it Chloe?"
"You and I are going to the dance together! Isn't that great?!"
I raised my eyebrow at the blonde and looked over at Marinette who looked just as confused as I was. Just what was she up to now?
Adrien also seemed just as confused as the two of us. "Chloe what are you talking about?"
"Well I may have mentioned to Mother that I didn't have anyone to go to the dance with. She mentioned this to your dad and he told her that you didn't have a date either and he thinks the two of us should go."
Marinette and I both dropped our jaws at this statement.
"My....father said this?" Adrien said as he looked conflicted.
"Yes! He thinks we'll be a perfect pair. We'll be the main attention at the dance and it's great publicity. Don't you agree?"
Adrien looked down at the ground for a moment, then back at Chloe. "Of...course.."
"Wonderful! Now that that's out of the way you can tell Marinette what you want to tell her now." She stepped aside with a devious look on her face.
I already know what's about to happen as Adrien gives Marinette somewhat of an apologetic look. "I wanted to ask if...we could go to the park to work out our hypothesis for the project..." he chuckled nervously.
It broke my heart to see all hope just drain from Mari's face in that split second. "The...the project?" She asked almost in disbelief.
"Yeah...I guess I'm a little clueless about it."
"Yeah, no kidding..." I spat under my breath, sadly it went unheard.
Adrien noticed that his car had shown up, luckily saving him from any sort of lip he was going to get from me. "Well....I'll see you later Marinette."
Once Adrien was in his car, Chloe who hasn't dropped her smirk walks up to Marinette. "I hope you weren't hoping on going to the dance with Adrien. How silly of you to think that someone like him would ask out someone as boring as you." Chloe laughed. "As if anyone would want to go to the dance with you, what a joke!"
I was about to give Chloe a piece of my mind, but Marinette had spoke up before I could. "W...Well...the jokes on you Chloe, cause I already HAVE a boyfriend!"
Wait what?!
Chloe's eyes widened for a second until her expression eased back into a smirk. "Oh really? What's his name?"
"M..Mason!" What was she doing?!
"Strange...I don't ever remember a 'Mason' being at our school."
"That's because he doesn't go to our school, his dad travels and he's in......Canada."
Chloe starts laughing. "Interesting how we're just hearing about this now probably because he DOESN'T EVEN EXIST!"
"What's the matter Chloe? Are you afraid Mason and I will take away your precious spotlight at the dance?"
As crazy as this ordeal is, it was very satisfying to see Chloe's irritated face at Maris comment just now. "In your dreams Dupain-Cheng, I'm going to tell everyone about your little 'date' and when he doesn't show up you'll be humiliated."
Chloe begins to storm off. Once she's out of ear shot I decide to ask the big question I've been waiting to ask. "So...who exactly is this new beau of yours that you neglected to tell me about?"
"Alya...." Marinette turns towards my direction with the palest face I've ever witnessed. ".......I have absolutely no idea."
