[Marinette POV]

I groaned as I walked home.

We had some exams today and I was tired!!! I just wanted to fall on my bed and sleep for a couple of years!!!

"MAD!!!!"

I stopped walking and turned around to see that Parker and Wendy were running towards me. I raised a questioning eyebrow at them.

"We were wondering if you wanted to hang out with the rest of the girls and the boys?" Parker asked. I shrugged.

"I wanted to sleep for a while, but I guess it couldn't hurt," I said.

Parker and Wendy grinned and dragged me to everyone.

"I'll call-"

"There's no need for that!!!" Wendy interrupted me. "We're all going to car pool in each other's cars!!!"

I shrugged and went in a group with Wendy, Parker, Sage, Zane, and Tyler. All of us jumped into Sage's car and followed the others.

Sage's car:

I looked at my friends quizzically.

"What are we doing here?" I asked.

HISSSSSS!!

My eyes widened, my heart skipped a beat, and my body became tense.

HISSSSSS!!

"A SNAKE!!!! LET'S FIND IT!!!!" Addison exclaimed excitedly and everyone started looking.

I was filled with pure terror. I've always been afraid of snakes as long as I could remember.

I saw something gray and scaly slither towards me and I screamed at the top of my lungs.

Everyone turned to me in worry.

HISSSSSS!!

My breath became fast and heavy as the snake slithered closer.

I wanted to run, but I was glued to the spot.

I felt something touch my shoulder and I jumped, alerting the snake. I stiffly turned around to see a worried Tyler.

"Are you okay?" he asked gently.

I couldn't speak. I was just terrified because a snake was coming after me.

Tyler shook me gently.

"Say something, Madi!!!!" he exclaimed.

The nickname got my attention. Only Tyler called me that.

"S... sn... snake..." I said, tears in my eyes.

I hated myself for being like this in front of everyone. I hated crying even if I did it with no one there to hear or witness it. I just felt so powerless!
