School had let out for the day. Y/N, along with many other students, made their way out of the CFD. She didn't pay much attention to her surroundings as she jogged down the steps, which led her to, unfortunately, run into somebody.
Y/N looked up to face the person she ran into so she could apologize, but it was Marinette.
"I'm so sorry" Y/N apologized to Marinette.
"Don't worry about it, Y/N; you'd be surprised at how many times I trip on my own feet." Marinette admitted sheepishly. "So, whats up? Is class over for you too?"
Y/N nodded. "Yep. Thanks again for helping me find my first class, by the way." Marinette tittered, bashful as was her nature. "Don't mention it, it's a pleasure."
A girl next to Marinette and Y/N cleared her throat and stepped closer to Marinette. She had ombré auburn hair and pretty, albeit curious amber eyes. "Hello, stranger! I'm Alya Césaire, Marinette Dupain-Cheng's BFF. It's super cool to meet you! Who are you?"
The sudden introduction caught both Marinette and Y/N off guard. Y/N grinned nervously. "Hi, Alya. I'm Y/N L/N, I'm new here. It's nice to meet you. I was just talking to Marinette here and thanking her for helping me find my homeroom earlier today."
Alya wasn't surprised. "Yep! That's my bestie, Marinette, always helping people out. She's also really forgetful! That's why I'm here introducing myself just in case she forgets to do it herself." She gave Marinette a pat on the back, amused by her friend.
Marinette's face, at this point, was a bright red. She grinned awkwardly and tried to come up with something to say, but she failed. "Hey, Alya. I was just talking to Y/N. As a matter of fact, I was going to ask her if she wanted to hang out with us sometime."
"Yeah, totally, that sounds great." Y/N smiled approvingly. Alya and Marinette high fived. "Okay, awesome! How about some time tomorrow after school lets out?" Marinette asked. Again, Y/N accepted her proposal. "Totally!"
Y/N's phone started buzzing all of a sudden. She checked the time and realized she had to get back home. "Oh, shoot. I have to go. Would it be alright with you two if I give you my number so we could keep in touch?" Alya was the first to give up her phone to Y/N. "I'll pass your number to Marinette." Y/N nodded while entering her phone number into Alya's phone. "Done."
"So, we'll see you tomorrow, Y/N?" Marinette asked before getting ready to go home. She had a good feeling about Y/N as a potential friend and was eager to see her again. "Sure! See you guys tomorrow!" Y/N waved them goodbye before walking away.
"She seems cool, huh?" Alya stated while scrolling through her Ladyblog. Marinette glanced back at Y/N and smiled fondly. "Yeah, she sure is."
