Adrien's P.O.V.

Day one. Time for my #1 prank. The cookie ice cream smash. I still don't completely know why I'm doing this, but I just feel like soothing inside of me was telling me to do this. Maybe it's because I read an article that Marinette treats her fans like trash, or maybe it's because I heard that Marinette was just so perfect that maybe I just got a tad bit jealous. Whatever the reason is, nothing is going to stop me now.

As I slowly sit down in my seat with a smirk, Nino, my best bud comes in. "Uh... Dude, you sure this is a good idea? I mean... You've never pranked before... What if you get in trouble?"

I roll my eyes at him. "Nino, don't worry. I'll just get croissants from my parents bakery and feed the class."

"You mean feed yourself?"

I laugh and Ms. Bustier gives us the instructions for our first project. "Remember, this is just a project to know your classmates better. No sweat. This project will get a grade though. Alright. Now I will be assigning partners. Remember, each group will have one boy and one girl." We all groaned but Ms. Bustier just smiles. "First, we have Chloé with Nathaniel, Alya with Nino, Ivan and Mylene, Kim and Alex, Max and Sabrina, (Etc.) And finally, Marinette and Adrien. Now go! Get with your partners!" I smirk one more. This is going to be way easier than I thought.

Marinette's P.O.V.

I don't know if this is good or bad... It's good that I'll get to know the cute boy in front of me, but It's bad that he might kill me. I mean, he did give me that "I'll kill you face"... He waves his hand over my face while I zone out. "Oh! U-Umm... Sorry about that... Lets get started!"

He nods and I quickly get my pencil out. "So... I think we should do our report on the really popular show "Amazing Ladybug". I think it would represent us really well. For example, I'm a lot like the main character, Marcy. And you look a lot like the other main character, Adam." I stop myself before totally fangirling about the show and give him a chance to give me feedback.

"Okay! I watch "Amazing Ladybug" too so it would be just perfect!" I smile and we quickly jot down notes on what we think would be a good idea for the project. We eventually come up with this: So for the venn diagram, my part will have Ladybug's awesome yoyo as the circle and Adrien's (I learned his name! That's a start to being friends!) circle will be Chat Noir's ring. This is turning out to be so awesome! We laugh while still focusing real hard on our diagram.

Before we know it, the bell rings. "Oh! Well there goes the bell! It was really fun working with you, Adrien! I hope I see you around! Bye!" I say and he smiles and nods. Adrien's really fun to be around! He's a great friend. FRIEND?! SQUEE! I MADE MY 2ND FRIEND EVER! I smile and happily skip over to my next period.

Adrien's P.O.V.

"Oh! Well there goes the bell! It was really fun working with you, Adrien! I hope to see you around! Bye!" I smile and nod. Her perkiness bothers me so much but I don't know why. It almost makes me want to spare her... But! I can't. I must embarrass her. So during our project, I managed to get Marinette to come to my house after school today. That would be the absolute perfect time to lure her into the trap. MUHAHAHAHA!! Man, I'm weird. Why did I want to embarrass her again? That doesn't matter. MUHAHAHA!!

*After School, At Adrien's House*

"Hey, kids, do you guys want any pastries?" My mom asks us while holding up an irresistible tray of croissants. I nod really fast and she chuckles and sets the tray down on the desk we're working on. I hear Marinette slightly giggling as well as she takes her pencil and sketches out more details for our project.

Mom leaves and I get a black marker and outline the yoyo. "So... You're a big fan of Ladybug?" I awkwardly ask, trying to make conversation.

She frantically nods and looks up at me. "OH MY GOSH! YES! IT'S LIKE-THE BEST SHOW EVER AND ARGH! THOMAS ASTUC REALLY HAS TO GET SEASON 2 ON TV OR I'M GONNA GO NUTS!"

"Haha! Okay, cool. You ship Mardam,right?"

"WELL-DUH! THEY'RE LIKE THE CUTEST THING EVER AND I SHOULD SHUT UP BEFORE I KEEP RAMBLING ON LIKE A CRAZY PERSON." I laugh and go over the prank again. The ice cream covered cookie is still in the fridge and when we go out because "I need a snack even though I ate all the croissants" and then smash the ice cream cookie on her face and post it on Instagram. Nah, the last part is a bit harsh... Hmm... Maybe I'll just stand there like an idiot... I dunno...

"... Design because I feel like it makes me feel like I can do anything. Adrien? Are you listening?"

I blink and stutter. "U-Uh yeah! That's super cool!" I had totally forgotten that I had asked her what she likes to do on the spare time.

"Why would Snow White be a good judge?" I ask Marinette, trying to hold in my laughter. I had read this joke only last night, and I've been telling everyone since. I didn't have a chance to tell Marinette yet, so I thought this would be the perfect time to do that. She shrugs and I finally tell her the answer. "'Cause she the fairest of them all!" (A/N: I give credit to my little sister. She made up that joke. Although, I don't know if she's lying or not...)

Marinette laughs like she had just heard the funniest thing ever and I laugh with her. "Adrien *pant* that was so funny *pant* Adrien!" We laugh for a little longer and then get back to work and keep talking.

Then I decide that it's time for you-know-what. "I'm getting a bit hungry. I'm going downstairs. Wanna come with?"

"Sure. Make it quick though. This project has to be done tonight if we want extra credit." I nod and we make it down the stairs. My hands tremble as I open the fridge. Is this really a good idea? I shake all my doubts off and swing the fridge open and grab the plate. My hands move as if they had a mind of its own and hit her right on the face. I stand there, just like that for a few seconds. "M-Marinette! I'm so sorry... I don't know wh-"
She wipes some of the dessert off her face and looks up. "Don't waste your breath, Adrien. Save it." She turns and walks away towards the door. My hands drop the plate and I can't move. What've I done?

A/N: That will be the end of this chapter! Hope you read this and screamed at Adrien! I also hoped you enjoyed it! Lol! Make sure to vote, follow, and add this story to your reading lists or library. Bye! -heykatelyn
