Hey, this is going to be loads of little one shots about Nino and the problem with having superheroes as friends.

1. Group Project
"Okay team so we need to get as much as this finished as possible today, with Adrien's schedule I don't think we will get another chance to work this long together"
"Yeah sorry guys I hope it's not much trouble", the blonde apologised as he walked towards the table dumping a stack of books from the shelves of the library.
"Nah it's fine bro I'd rather get it out of the way anyway, and I'm sure that Al and Mari don't mind either".
"It's fine Adrien, Marinette and I want to get it out of the way as soon as possible, even if it means spending a few hours in a dusty library, isn't that right girl"
"Yeah i-it's no big deal, b-but we need to make sure we don't rush it, this project is worth quite a bit of our grade"
As she stumbled through her words Marinette looked up with a rosy face to Alya a slightly pleading look in her eyes before she looked down again.
"Okay Marinette you're in charge of the poster make it look fancy we need to outshine Nathaniel's group"
The bluenette nodded as pulled out her art equipment and started working on the title of the poster working in bright, bold colours.
"Adrien I'm gonna need you to write the speech for the presentation, Mrs Buster seems to like yours the best and we need to impress her"
The blonde nodded in agreement as Alya carried on her assignments.
"I'm going to sort out the slideshow which will be playing with Adrien so Nino would you mind doing some grunt work and help gather information for us"
"Sure Al I don't mind just tell me if you need anything specific".
The group worked in comfortable silence for an hour casually talking when needing information or to get an opinion on the work produced and all seemed to be going well until a crashing noise echoed from outside.
"What do you think that was guys"
"I don't know Adrien and to be honest I really don't want to find out"
Alya's phone suddenly beeped followed by the flurry of her fingers and she went through her notifications her face turning serious.
"Well sorry to burst your bubble Nino but there's an Akuma attack at the park and they seem to like cars"
Adrien's body sat up as he listened to Alya his gaze looking at the exits on either side of the library as Marinette sprung up from her seat.
"I'm j-just going to the copy room I need to get some more paper, I shouldn't be too long"
The group nodded as Marinette quickly exited the room and ran down the corridor out of sight.
"Thinking about it I'm sure there was a great reference book about my speech in the classroom I'm just going to fetch it, do you guys need anything while I'm gone"
"Nah we'll be fine bro, hurry back"
"Will do" he replied with a hand salute as he went through the doors and the sound of his footsteps slowly faded away.
"Nino I'm just going to the toilet will you be fine on your own or should I wait till they get back"
"Nah Al, I'll be fine I just need to finish writing down this info and I should everything sorted be back soon".
Ayla nodded as she said her goodbyes and exited the room as Nino put in his headphones.
∽10 minutes later ∽
Taking off his headphones Nino glanced around noticing the abundance of his friends and heard the noise of fighting outside.
"I wonder what's taking them so long I've already finished my work".
Glancing over he took a look at Adrien's speech and quickly took it and got out his red pen from his pencil case.
"I might as well check over Adrien's speech he tends to mess up when he's rushing, it's," he said as he started circling words and correcting the blondes mistakes.
∽30 minutes later ∽
"I swear, that boy may be bilingual but his grammar and punctuation all go down the Seine when he's being quick".
The quiet dings of Alya's laptop chimed in the air as Nino got up to plug to stop it from dying. Looking at the screen, he started the slideshow, reading through every slide.
"Why doesn't Alya add some effects and music to this, it would make it more interesting and since she's vanished I guess she wouldn't mind me doing one slide..."
∽ 1 hour alone∽
" Okay I hope Alya doesn't mind me glamming up all her slides but hey at least it will look better than anyone else's….though this is getting a little weird where are they all"
Shrugging it off Nino moved towards Marinette's station where the poster was almost finished except for the title which was written in calligraphy and only half done.
"Now that's some fancy writing, when did Marinette learn to do that" he pulled out his phone and searched online flicking through tutorials and learner videos.
"I could try and finish it I mean Marinette can always fix if she needs to"
∽ 1 hour 15 minutes alone∽
"Okay where are they, I need them to marvel in the magnificence of my calligraphy"
After taking out his phone and grabbing a few pictures of his work he started messaging his missing friends but to no avail.
"Now what am I meant to do?"
∽ 1 hour 20 minutes alone∽
"Zzzzzzzzzzzz"
"Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"
"Zzzzzzzzzzzz"
∽ 1 hour 30 minutes alone∽
"Hey I'm back sorry it took so long my mum messaged me…."
Marinette's apology was drowned out by Adrien and Alya's own apologies as they walked in through the other entrances to the library and moved towards the table.
"Is Nino asleep?" the blonde poked his friend who was hunched over the table.
"Yeah, and I think he changed my slideshow it's got effects now there's even some sound"
Adrien picked up his presentation and flicked through the papers noticing the red splashes of colour surrounding it.
"Looks like he went grammar nazi on my work to," He said holding up his work to Alya.
"Hey guys" Marinette called from her desk looking confused as she held up her paper.
"When did Nino learn calligraphy?
"I don't know but maybe we should leave him alone more often he seems to get quite a lot done"
"Should we wake him up Alya"
"Nah leave him, for now, Mari he deserves a rest"
