Rescue Ladybug

Chapter 12

"Lila I need a favor," Marinette asked her as she saw her heading to the locker rooms..

Lila was annoyed as she was about to insult her. However she immediately paused as she remembered what the Future Lila told her, "Of course Marinette! How can I help you?"

Adrien noticed this interaction from the distance when he was talking to Nino, "Excuse me Nino I forgot something in my locker."

Marinette followed Lila as they went to the locker, "So what do you want Dupain Cheng?"

Marinette gave an eyerolled with crossed arms, "I know that last stunt you pulled to get me expelled benefitted you."

"Aww are you jealous of my phootshoot with Adrikins," Lila mocked trying to keep her cool.

"So here the deal," Marinette stated, "I need Gabriel Agreste number."

Lila huffed, "Now why would I do that?"

"You can have my seat behind Adrien," Marinette offered.

Lila eyes widen in shock, "Oh your serious, why?"

"Take it or leave it," Marinette responded to avoid answering Lila.

Lila shrugged as it was a good deal, "Fine."

Marinette handed her phone for Lila to type in the number, "Mrs. Bustier already know that you have been struggling with your grades because of your eyesight. So just feel free to sit there."

"So you thought this through?" Lila commented as she handed her phone back.

"You lie to get what you want and I arrange it to make it happen," Marinette commented.

Lila gave an eyeroll as she started to leave, "Nice doing buisness."

"It was a pleasure," Marinette commented as she watched her leave.

"What were you talking about with Lila?" Adrien appeared from behind the lockers in the next room.

"I knew there was a peeping tom," Marinette chuckles as she turned to face him, "Me and Lila were having a little girl chat."

"Right, you and Lila. Do you think I'm an idiot," Adrien responded.

"More like clueless," Marinette commented.

"I will find Hawkmoth and he will pay for whatever he did to you," Adrien threatened.

"If you only knew. See I'll explain, I feel in a charitable mood right now," Marinette spoke icily, "Now listen to me carefully."Marinette walked up to Adrien, "Go and tell everyone who I am."

"Mari, stop this, " Adrien started but stopped when Marinette touched his his cheek. She had done this many times but every time her expression was full of love or desire - never of hatred and disgust.

"Don't you dare disrespect me! Your in my world not in yours now. Go now pretty boy and tell the so-called heroes who I am to prepare for war," Marinette threatened.

"What are you going to do?" Adrien asked.

"It all depends on you," Marinette threatened, "Chaos will happen if you don't stay in line. So open up your eyes and just give me your ring."
