I would suggest you go check it out, but only if you are older than 14, of course. It´s rated T. So, here we go!
Second Chapter: Not as easy as it was
*Marinette Age: 15*
-Hi mum! Hi dad!- Marinette said as she opened the bakery´s door, letting the fresh smell of pastries come out to the streets of Paris. She runned up stairs and got in her riding clothes. The school´s polo, some pink riding socks, her custom made leather boots that she got for Christmas, black riding pants and tied her hair in a messy bun. (Am I the only one that likes seeing Marinette in a bun) She got her helmet and her whip.
-Mum, dad! I´m leaving!
-Good luck sweetie!- Herd ad said with his deep voice.
-Thanks!I will need it…- She mumbled quietly.
Since that day where she shared her croissant with Adrien, tons of things changed in her riding school. Chloe got in by her "daddy" bribing Gabriel Agreste. There are no more exams to get in the school. Now you have to pay to get in if you didn´t enter previously. Gabriel Agreste is the most famous horse riding clothes designer in all France. She has to submit one new design for him every month so he can publish it, that is pretty cool. But he became focused in his work and treats Adrien as a piece of turd. Chloe annoys Adrien, that makes him more miserable, and annoys her.
The subway stopped in her station. She got out and did a little jog to the riding center. She got there almost out of breath.
-G-God. T-That was too much for my heart to handle.
-Hey, are you okay?- She heard as a familiar voice spoke.
-Y-yeah Adrien. Just… A little tired.
-Gosh Mari, you need to calm down. My dad won´t kill you if you are late!
-You know how your dad is when I get late. It´s worse than death!
-Okay, okay. So are you going to th—
-ADRIKINS! YOU ARE HERE!
A familiar blonde said as she latched into Adrien´s neck.
-OH! I MISSED YOU!
-Chloe, it was just the weekend!
-But it´s too much time away from my Adrikins! Ugh, And Maritrash is here too. Go get your stupid "totally not pure bred horse" and leave MY Adrien alone.
Adrien smiled appolegetically and she silently nodded. She learnt to ignore Chloe in these times. Her friendship with Adrien was just because he was rich and hot. Wait, did she just call Adrien hot? What was wrong with her? She nedded to ride soon.
*Marinette POV*
-Hi Tikki. Did you sleep well?- She said as she took her horse out of the stable.- Let´s groom you, okay?
Marinette took her brush and started to groom her horse. After cleaning her hooves and oiling them, she took her tack and put them on. After being ready, she mounted on Tikki and trotted into the outdoor area because Spring just came and it´s beautiful. I saw Chloe also walking next to Adrien with her majestic new black Friesian. That horse was worth more than 30,000 euros. But anyway. She had private classes with Gabriel also, but we were the only ones. I started lunging Tikki as she lunged Amorino? I think that was his name.
-Girls. I just wanted to say that I saw someone messing around with the Dressage arena?
I instantly got pale. Just for fun, me and Tikki were doing the dressage kids routine for the competition.
-Ugh? Me? Excuse mister Gabriel, but I am a obstacle rider from heart. I would never mess with Dressage!
-Yes, I know Chloe. The person that I saw knows that I am talking to her. Isn´t it? Marinette?
-Uhm… I´m sorry Mister Gabriel.
-If you weren´t one of my prized students I would have to kick you out. But if I see you messing with the wrong things ever again, I will have to expel you, am I clear.
At this point I was red as a tomato. Chloe would NOT let me live this down.
-Yes mister Gabriel.- I could hear Chloe snickering.
-Alright then. Please do this obstacle course that I made.
Then, class started. I don´t remembre much. I probably missed all of the jumps. I don´t care. I was too humilliated to care.
After that I just ran from the arena and went to the stables. I got Tikki ready and left the stables not even saying anything to Adrien, I just wanted to get on my computer, in a blanket away from the world.
I got home, said a quick hello do my parents and ran upstairs.
-Marinette. Do you want some chocolate chip cookies? They are fresh from the oven!
-Yes, please!
My mum went into my room and gave me a tray of chocolate chip cookies.
-Are you ok Mari?
-Yeah, mum. Just… Things from the riding school.
-Okay, if you need any help, just tell. I will be down stairs.
-Okay mum! You are the best.
-I know.- My mum said smiling, as she went down the stairs.
I watched my friend Alya´s blog. It was all about superheroes and such. And I got a idea. They conceal their identitied with a mask. So they can work close to people without it interfering with their personal life. So what if—
I ran to my chai rand got my sewing items out. I started sketching some ideas. A top, some riding pants, and a mask. After some time I had a full sketch of a superhero horse rider thingy.
-What if… No, that would be too risky. But I have the key to the stables… and I could sneak in at night… Oh my God this is crazy! But I love it!
I started sewing, stitching, choosing fabrics. It was wonderful! After 3 long hours, it was finished. A red polo with black polka dots, some red riding pants, also with polka dots, and a red (can I say with polka dots?) mask was on one of my manequins.
-Alright. Tonight I will tell my parents that I will go meet Alya and stay the night. Then sneaking into the riding school… then get Tikki her mask on… And then do as many Dressage as I want! This is pefect!
I told my mum that I was staying the night, but I was going to her house only at 11:00 pm. Parents will be sleeping by then. Got in my clothes on and sneaked out.
As I got in the subway, I wondered if I was normal. This would get me expeled for good! But all for the sake of Dressage, right?
I got into the riding school and I got on Tikki, but when I got there, I saw a blonde… cat eared boy… riding in a pure black horse, jumping really high. He looked like he was having the time of his life!
I entered the arena, and just stared at him. He also had a mas. Did he have the same idea I did?
-Oh, hello there. What´s your name?- He got down from his horse and kissed my hand.
-Uhm… L-Ladybug.
-Nice to meet you milady. My name is Chat Noir.
Well, that is done. I´ve been trying to write this chapter so many times, but just kept leaving it sitting in my desktop. Well, I just wanted to thank for all the support and please leave a review if you can. Thank you and be happy!
