Marinette had been very excited for summer. She was able to spend time with her friends whenever she wants. She didn't have to wake up before 8 am. She was free to stay late at nights.
Maybe not.
When the bell rang, she stood up and got out of the classroom with her best friend, Alya. They made their way to the locker room. "So," Alya started. "What are we doing this summer?"
Marinette pressed her sketchbook to her chest. "I don't know, Alya. Next year is senior year. I need a job experience for university." Alya rose her eyebrows. "Come on, girl. Are you serious?" Marinette nodded. "You got to be kidding!" When they entered the locker room, she walked to her locker. Alya was poking her while she unlocked her locker.
"I already found a job as a lifeguard in a country club." Marinette said. She took her bag to put her books in it. "Lifeguarding is bullshit." Alya opposed. Marinette turned to her best friend. "Saving lives is not bullshit." Alya unlocked her own locker. "It is if that means you're not going to spend time with me."
Marinette smiled. "Maybe you should find a summer job just like me. As a journalist maybe?" Alya locked her locker after she put her things in it. "I'll think about it." She said. Marinette hold her bag and locked her locker. "Let's head out."
"What are your plans for summer, dude?" Nino asked Adrien while they are heading out. Adrien rubbed her nape. "Actually, I found a summer job." Adrien said.
"Hey guys!" They heard Alya's voice. "Wanna have some cold drinks?" Nino smiled. "I'm in. What about you, dude?" he asked Adrien. Adrien took his phone out. "I have to ask Nathalie." He unlocked his phone and texted his father's assistant. He read the answer she sent just a few seconds later. "Okay. I'm in." he smiled to his friends.
They walked out of the school. Nino told Adrien about university, his plans for summer and that kind of things.
When they entered the cafe, Alya suggested getting the drinks with Nino. And lovebirds left Marinette and Adrien alone.
Adrien looked at her. She was already looking at him. When their eyes met, she blushed lightly. He got closer to her. "So what's up?" he said. She looked into his eyes deeply. "I-I... Fine. What about you?" she answered quietly. He smiled at her. "I'm good."
He was aware of her crush on him. He knew that she was so shy to confess him. He needed to do something to encourage her.
"What are you planning to do this summer?" he asked her. She played with her fingers. "Nothing big. I just attended to a summer job for university." She said."So do I." he told her. "I mean the summer job. Not for university but I wanted to prove my father that I am able to do things on my own." She nodded. "I understand."
They went silent for a few minutes. He wanted to talk to her. And he wanted her to enjoy his company. "Uhm," he started. "I wonder if you want to hang out sometime?" he asked. Her face was redder than before. "I-I think. T-that would be... um, great?" He rubbed his nape with his free hand. "I'll text you then."
Hey guys. I must confess I am not very good at writing but I wanted to write something like this. I hope you like it! I'll update the story twice a week or three times a week. And there'll be sin in next chapters.
