All too early, I wake up to screaming.
"What?!" I jolt out if bed, and look over to see that Adrien is no longer on the bed, but scrambling around on the floor in his underwear, trying to get to the bathroom. The maid is in the door, shrieking her head off. I just sit there with no idea what to do. I look up and see Mikey on the ceiling fan, with some black blob. He spots me and motions for me to run to the closet to get changed.
As I scamper out of bed, the maid sees me also half naked, and faints. "Uh-oh that's not good" I say, as I rush to the closet to get some clean clothes on. I flange over my shoulder, and see Adrien's body disappear strong the corner into the bathroom.
I realize this is not my closet, so I rush back out, and put on my scattered clothes from yesterday.
I walk over to the maid, and see that she is okay, and then tiptoe downstairs, and out the door, and run straight to school.

<<Time Skip>>

I am sitting in class, still no sign of Adrien. I begin to really sorry, and pull out my phone, while the teacher writes the formulas in the board.
Mikey pokes his head out if my collar "watcha doin'"?
"Just gonna text Adrien, see what's up"
"Wouldn't that be bad, if he's in trouble?!"
"Oh yeah your right." I put my phone away.
At that moment the door to the room opens, and Adrien walks in. I smile and wave at him, but he pretends not to see me. Instead of walking up to sit at the top of the classroom with me, he takes a seat by himself in the front of the classroom.
I am puzzled by his behavior. I thought that we were closer than that. I snuck out my phone and shit him a text. What's up Adrien, are you OK? It sent, and I got a read receipt, but he didn't respond.
After class he hurried out, glancing over his shoulder, as I raced down the steps, to try and catch up with him. He sped walked over to his locker, and opened it, pretending to be busy as I arrived in the locker room after him, out if breath. "Adrien! What's going on?" I shouted.

Adrien's POV

I didn't know what to do. The maid had told my dad, (who video chatted me and promptly left the convention to call me home,) I had a boy sleep over with me, half naked, and was late to school, and we I didn't do my homework, or finish the Raven design, dad wanted from me. He was so angry he told me that I was from nged, and wasn't allowed to speak to Danny. But how was that fair?! It was a one time thing, besides it's not like I have feelings for Danny... well. He could play the piano, like me; he could cook well, like me; he was funny, and cute, and had such a musical voice. We both had father's who were distant, and rich, and he's in all of my classes. No I didn't have feelings for Danny... he was just my super duper best friend I met like a day ago...
"I -im not allowed to speak with you, my father grounded me. Danny, he found out... I don't know what to do, I know what I want, and I know what my father wants, and I - I'm just so confused. I-" I started to weap. I slumped over into the wall, the weight of everyone's expectations on pushing me down. Danny stepped over to me cautiously, and reached a hand out to Pat my shoulder.

Danny's POV

"Oh my goodness, Aaaaadrikins what happened to you!? Did Danny say something mean, oh, I bet it was that Marinette, she's always messing thing up. What's wrong sweetie" Chloe (whatever-her-last-name-is) burst into the locker room, making me jerk my hand back. She folder her petit frame over Adrien, as he tried to stand. He gave up, and without saying anything to me, let Chloe lead him out if the room, arms around shoulders, and hands in waists and all. The suddenness of drama that just took place, made me double take, and by the time I realised what happened, Adrien had gone, the moment lost.
Chloe. I should have known, Adrien was to easy, of course he liked Chloe, I mean, her dad was the mayor, and... well anyways what would make me think Adrien liked me? I mean Do I even like him, I thought I was straight, but last night was the best night if my life, so what did that mean? Is this a Phase? What is going on? I realize this is probably what made Adrien come to tears, mere seconds ago. All the confusion, the people, the perceptions of yourself, all of it.
I slump over, still upset, Chloe had ruined the moment. The bell rang.
I jumped up and ran into the gym, for class.

We were playing (European) football, and Adrien and Nino were team captains. I ended up on Nino's team as goalie, so I got into position. Adrien was striker, and easially got past our defenses. He was 10 feet in front of me, inside the penalty box, when he kicked the ball at the net. I reached out my arms diving, and hit the ball with my finger tips, giving it that extra boost to get into the goal. The opposite tram went wild, and started cheering, while Adrien just stood there looking at me, with an expression. Was that pity, or was he upset, or distraught? I couldn't tell.
Coach blew the whistle, and we went back to the locker room to grab our stuff. Inside there I grabbed my backpack and walked out quickly, wanting to get away from Adrien and his jeering teammates.

It was raining when I got outside, but I walked all the way home, even though I saw the limo outside the school. When I got home I remembered my dad had left, and the mansion was all locked up. I didn't have the energy to go the Agreste house, so I just sat on the porch. The mailman came buy and threw some papers at me. I glanced at the Headline, Fire in Tokyo, destroys million of $$ of tech at IT Convention. And a familiar name dead: Billionaire, Mr. North. I was stunned how could thin be? I barely knew him. Why does this happen to me? Do I go back to LA? What's going on? Aaaaaa?!!?! I begin to cry. Not soft sobs ethier. No one is around, so I just let the tears and sorrow and confusion run, no need to stop now. I don't notice the Agreste limo until a familiar hand touches my shoulder, holds a charcoal black umbrella over my head and leads me into the vehicle.

Hey, so this is shorter than my other chapters, but this next bit is completely different than the "problems" portion of this day, so I cut it off early. This next part should be out in under a week though. Any comments? Thank you all!
