The Princess and Her Criminal

The Sleepover

Marinette's Pov
Rushing into my bedroom, I placed down the sleeping sacks and snacks, along with a stack of dvds and video games. Alya should be here soon, as you probably realized, I'm having a sleepover. Oh, by the way my wound, from the drunkards encounter are healed. A knock, a repeated and loud knock was heard, gotta be Alya! Anyways, I rushed to the door downstairs, my parents went to a baking competition that's being held tomorrow but it's not in Paris, but it is in France, so it'll take them a while to reach their destination so their staying at a hotel not too far from where the competition will be held, so they said I could have a sleepover. Opening the door, I was greeted by Alya and Nino. We headed inside and they helped me make sure that everything is in place. Soon enough another knock was heard, this time softer and only twice. I unlocked the door for Adrien and we sat down to watch a movie. "Ok, guys, we shall watch a movie first!" Alya announced picking the stack up. "Mari! You have this?! Oh my gosh!" Alya turned around the dvd so we can see. "Yeah, so?" I replied. "We are so watching Silent Kill!" Adrien said. (I don't  think Silent Kill is an actual movie, cause I totally made that up)"Mari, please, I don't want to watch it, help me!" Nino whispered.  I chuckled, "ok, scaredy cat!" He folded his arms. "Alya will be scared and s-so will I so I can't look helpless infront of her!" Those two love birds! Knowing Alya, she purposely picked this so that she can hold unto Nino in the movie. But if Nino's scared too then, Alya will hold unto me, while Nino  hold unto Adrien. And trust me, Alya screams extremely loud, so no thanks! "Actually Alya, you shouldn't watch that!" I said as she talked to Nino. "Why not?" She asked turning to face me. "Because, that's romeo and juliet..." I replied pointing to the tv screen. "WHAT?!" Alya screamed, looking  around for the original dvd but didn't find it. So, I may or may not have swapped the dvds when she wasn't looking and threw Silent Kill out of the window, I watched it too many times anyway! "Well, let's watch this anyways," Nino suggested. After one long and amazing,  not to mention, romantic movie, we played about three video games, before playing hide and seek and now we're about to play truth or dare. "Ok I'll go first!" Adrien said. "Nino, truth or dare?" "Um...truth?" Her answered in a questioning tone. Adrien and I exchanged glances, smiling. Oh! This is going to be good! Adrien and I have a plan to get Alya and Nino together, at first, I wanted them to progress on their own but I've been waiting TOO long, so I'm taking matters into my own hands, and I may have asked Adrien for help and he agreed since we both ship them. "Ok...what do you like as Alya, as either a friend or not, I don't care, just tell us what you like about her," I took some deep breaths trying not to giggle, and I barely succeeded at doing so. "Oh! Uh," he gulped as he avoided any eye contact with Alya, "she's beautiful and I admire her bravery to actually put herself in danger just to update her Chat Blog. Plus, she's smart and fierce, but once you really get to know her she can b-be an amazing gir- er, friend!" He quickly corrected himself. I glanced at Alya, her face as red as a tomato, if not redder. "T-thanks, you're pretty awesome yourself, " she complimented. HOW CAN THEY BE SO BLIND?! They honestly think that the compliments that they gave one another was as friends! Ugh! "Marinette, truth or dare?" I heard Nino's voice. "Um...truth!" I exclaimed. "Do you have a crush? No lying!" He said, a smug smirk on Alya's face, I see... they had our idea too...but I don't like Adrien so they can't get us together, unlike them! "No," I simply replied. "What? Why?" Alya asked. "You guys only get to ask one question per turn!" I replied, licking my tongue out at Alya, closing my eyes and placing my hands at my hip. I heard her huffed before replying with a 'fine!' "Now, hmm... Alya, what do you admire about Nino?" I asked, she shot daggers at me but answered. "H-he's really cute, plus..." she gulped, looking down at her feet a blush spreading across her face,"he's mostly kind and the best dj ever, he has some of the best ideas and he's extremely thoughtful..." she answered, obviously not mentioning everything she thinks. "Oh," I smirked. "A-anyways, it's m-my turn!" It's funny to see her act like this. "Adrien, do you by any chance like anyone?" She asked, looking at Nino. Wait...if Adrien do have a crush he didn't tell Nino... "M-maybe," a blush cross over his cheeks before disappearing almost immediately. "WHAT?! And you didn't tell me?!" Nino said getting up. Adrien rolled his eyes. "Isn't it obvious?! You know!" He mouthed him something but block it with his hand from us seeing. "Oh, yeah, I should have realized that..." he said, whispering something to Alya, I overheard though, but Adrien didn't, I could tell by his confused expression. "Well, time for phase 2, cause he's already out of the picture," Nino told Alya and she nodded. Out of the picture? As in he doesn't like me or he do? And what's phase two? I hope it's he doesn't cause I don't want to break his heart. "You know what, let's speed this up," I whispered to Adrien as he replies with an 'okay'. "Okay, Alya do you like someone here?" Alya's widened as she mumbled something. "What was that? I quite hear you..." Adrien said, a smirk on his face. She mumbled something again, a bit louder. "Alya, I can't hear you," I said, an identical smirk as Adrien's on my face. "YES!!!" She shouted before clasping a hand on her mouth. Nino's  face was redder than ever before. Alya slowly looked at Nino and their eyes locked on each other. Adrien and I nodded to each other knowing what to do. We sneaked behind each of them and pushed them together, Alya falling on Nino, but didn't kiss since she was shorter than him. "MARI!" "ADRIEN!" They said in sync, making us giggle and them blush a brighter shade of red. "Ugh! Just kiss already love birds!" I heard Adrien shout and I agreed with him by saying, "yeah! My popcorn's going to finish soon!" They looked away from us and looked at each other (Alya still untop of Nino) "I-I like you too," Nino said. And of course they were about to kiss, "GET A ROOM!" Adrien and I shouted. "We should get some sleep, Alya you can have my sleeping bag!" I said, giving her my sleeping bag so that she can sleep closer to her, soon to be boyfriend.  "Thanks Mari," she answered. Good, they forgot about THEIR scheme. "Mission accomplished, " I whispered to Adrien. He nodded and we fist bumped as a little celebration. And with that we all went to sleep.
