S1 E20: Spontaneous Sleepover

Adrien smiled widely at Marinette.

"What?"

"Well, I never had a sleepover before. Besides Chloé, and we were like four, so that doesn't count. This is my first one," Adrien beamed. "I'm excited!"

Marinette laughed. "I can tell."

"You have to tell me all about sleepovers!" Adrien said. "I know that we could watch movies. And I believe Chloé told me once you style each other's hair, or paint each others nails."

"Well, first off," Marinette began, untangling her legs from Adrien's to sit cross-legged directly in front of him, to which he mirrored her position. "Guys and girls aren't usually supposed to have sleepovers. It's considered inappropriate. That's why we shouldn't stay in the same room."

"Oh," Adrien blushed slightly, "but I would never..."

"I know," Marinette told him. "Our parents are just protective. It's not that they don't trust you."

Adrien nodded.

"Yes, we can watch a movie if you'd like. And girls usually paint nails, or style or mess around with each others hair, but I'll take it we won't be doing any of that."

Adrien tilted his head. "Why not?"

Marinette raised her eyebrows in amusement. "You want to paint my nails and do my hair?"

"Well, I don't have any nail polish," Adrien replied, "but I'm not opposed to doing your hair."

"Okay." Marinette giggled. "What else could we do? We could play games."

"Like truth or dare?" Adrien asked. "Can we play that game?"

Marinette shrugged. "Well, I mean sure. But it'd be more fun if we had more people to play with."

"We could call Alya and Nino," Adrien suggested.

Marinette blinked before placing a hand on the blond's shoulder. "Oh, Adrien, my sweet, naïve sunshine child, you do not willingly play that game with Alya. She's evil."

Adrien erupted with laughter. "She can't be that bad."

Marinette withdrew her hand to fold her arms. "It's your funeral, chéri."

"I'm calling Nino."

"I'll call Alya."

The teens called their friends to which they both answered in within seconds.

"Hey, girl!" Alya beamed.

"What's up, dudes?" Nino greeted.

"Okay, so Adrien here decided he wanted to do something dangerous," Marinette told them. "He wants to play truth or dare with you guys."

"Ooh!" Alya cackled evilly, rubbing her palms together. "All of you are screwed!"

Marinette sighed. "I know..."

Adrien became slightly nervous. "Okay? Um, how do we start?"

"Let's just start with you, Adrien. Ask whoever you want," Marinette said. "Then we'll go clockwise?"

Adrien nodded. "Um, Alya, truth or dare?"

"Truth."

Adrien thought for a minute. "What's your favorite thing about Nino?"

"Well, that's easy," Alya smiled. "I love just about everything about him, but his endless will to protect me definitely stands out."

"Thanks, babe," Nino blushed. "Adrien, truth or dare?"
