The ecstasy in the air soon died down as the students hopelessly shuffled through the pages of heavy library books and long history articles.

"This sucks!", Kim's booming voice interrupted the quiet. A few fellow students nodded in agreement as they slowly came to the realisation that this project was going to be tougher than they thought.

Marinette hopelessly scanned through the pages of a heavy, brown cover bound book, trying to take in even the slightest bit of information. But just her luck, whenever she started reading and proceeded to something new, she would instantly forget the former. It gave her a headache, staring aimlessly at the group of words that made no sense to her whatsoever.

She looked up from the book, and turned to Alya. Her best friend was searching online for easy information, and the evident happiness reflected on her face conveyed that she might've found something really interesting.

Marinette turned her attention to the two boys sitting across from her. Her initial plan was to stare at Adrien subtly but Nino's state caught her interest instead. He looked really out of place, with both hands on his forehead, and his head down. It was clear to any onlooker that he was merely moments away from bursting. The reason you might ask? Well it was his best bud.

Adrien was happily blabbing about his knowledge on the Victorian era to Nino. Just when Nino have had enough, Alya saved the day.

A loud smack on the table interrupted the rambling and the three of them looked at the bespectacled girl, startled.

"I've got a plan!" She whisper-shouted excitedly.

"What is it?", Adrien asked.

"We can pair up amongst ourselves . One of it could work on the dress and the other on the researches. This way, we could get this done quickly and have ample time to exchange notes so that all of us are prepared. What say?"

"I'm in!" Marinette piped in happily.

"Me too then!", Adrien said.

"Well it's no fun being left out, eh?" Nino answered, agreeing with the plan.

"So..the pairs..", Alya trailed off.

Nino shot her a pleading look, conveying that be did not want to be paired up with Adrien for this. Alya snickered and shook her head.

"Okay, so Marinette, you are obviously working in the dress. And as for the information and all, I guess Mr.History Master here wouldn't mind providing you that.", she gestured towards Adrien, whilst passing her bestie a smug smile.

Adrien was delighted with the pairing and happily agreed. Meanwhile, fireworks exploded in Marinette's heart and she had a sudden strong desire to squeal with happiness.

"As for Nino and I, we are going to work on the research papers. I was thinking a basic assignment and a documentary would be good. Right Nino?"

Nino nodded his head vigorously, while a small blush blanketed his cheeks. Marinette notice this and a wide smile found its way up on her face.

"So that settles it! One more thing, we would be combining the works, three weeks from now. Are you okay?" Alya asked the bluenette, who was still smiling like an idiot, staring into outer space.

"Huh? Oh ya ya. I-I'm totally fine! Spectacular! Sorry, you were saying?"

The other three shared a hearty laugh at Marinette's answer before Alya briefed her about the time.

The bell rung, indicating the commencement of a new period. Shuffles and sounds of moving chars were heard as the students got up and made their way out of the library.

She was talking to Mme. Longtemps , seeking permission to take the book home. She went back to pick it up when Adrien came quietly and stood behind her.

"So this is done as wel-OMIGOSH! Adrien!", Marinette shrieked, earning a glare from the librarian.

"Relax Mari.", he said, chuckling. " I just wanted to ask you when could we start? I'm so excited for this!"

"Start what?" Marinette asked stupidly, lost in his electric green eyes.

"The project Marinette. We were paired. Remember?"

"Oh-oh yah! R-Right! The project! Uh..um.. We could today start?"

"You mean start today?"

"Exactly! Tart stoday!"

Adrien laughed, amuse at her tongue slips. "Okay then.", he said, taking control over his laughter. "Today it is! My place or yours?"

"Um..mine? I have all the equipment there. Un-unless you would prefer yours, I-I mean I don't want to pressurise you or anyth-"

"How about 5?" Adrien cut off her rambling. Marinette gave a shy smile and nodded.

"See you then!" The blond haired model smiled. He waved back and winked at her as he walked away.

Little did he know that he left behind an exploding mess of fireworks behind who was about to get some good scolding from the librarian.

"OH NO THE PHOTOGRAPHS!!"
