Dance with Me
Marinette entered the wooden concert hall carved intricately by the generations before her, and walked to get a script. She had practiced this for ages and was ready for anything except….
Chloe walked into the room and pushed passed Marinette while Sabrina and Kim followed her, like programmed robots following Chloe's path of wrath. Marinette sighed. Her red Kwami popped out of her pocket and nestled next to her ear.
"Don't worry about her Marinette!" she squeaked.
"Hide Tikki!" she said to the kwami as Chloe came frog marching over.
"Wow Marinette that is so like you," Chloe said picking the kwami up and studying it. Tikki freezed like a toy.
"Give that back Chloe!"
"Well you won't need that," she hissed throwing Tikki into the velvet red seats of the ninth row "Because that good luck charm won't work on me."
Tikki flew back to Marinette as Chloe started to sashay back and saw Adrien enter the hall.
"Adrikens!" she cried "We'll be perfect in the play! I'll get Mme Bustier to put a kissing scene in."
But, as far as Marinette could tell Adrien looked disgusted, luckily this was broken up by Mme Bustier walking in to the hall.
"Alright everyone can all the girls auditioning for the part of Juliet go to the west wing, and all the boys auditioning for Romeo go to the east wing and anyone auditioning for the other parts please wait outside or watch."
They all went to the right spots and Marinette was surprised to find herself at the front of the line for Juliet, that meant she was auditioning with Adrien who was at the front of the line for those who were auditioning for Romeo. She blushed and started walking up the stairs to the stage. She was halfway up the steps when a hand grabbed her shirt and someone dragged her down.
"You actually thought you were auditioning with Adrien?" someone cackled. Chloe, she sighed. "I mean honestly, how stupid are you?"
Chloe sashayed up the steps and threw her script off the stage. "We won't need that" she called "Since we have true love here." She said batting her eyelashes at Adrien.
He started on his lines, but Chloe interrupted them.
"Come on Adrihoney let's get to the good stuff." She said pacing towards him.
"Miss Bourgeois, I don't think that's necessary. You are to work on the stage crew from now on." Said Mme Bustier.
"WHAT!" screeched Chloe "DO YOU KNOW WHO MY FATHER IS? HE WOULD'NT WANT ME WORKING WITH THOSE PLEBS!"
"I think we are well aware who your father is Miss Bourgeois NOW CAN YOU GET ON THE STAGE CREW BEFORE I ALERT THE PRINCIPAL ABOUT YOUR BEHAVIOUR!"
Marinette was in shock she had never seen Mme Bustier yell before.
