Marinette Clarié

CHAPTER 10

Skate N' Shake (A/N: still can't get over this name :D)

By Peacerockgirl

Adrien sat in the car/limo looking outside at the beautiful city he lived in. No matter how many times he sees it, he will never be able to get over just how breathtaking it is. As a tween he and Marinette used to sit on this bench in the park and watch civilians walk by and feed the pigeons. Adrien would do anything to do that again.

He sighed, those were the good old days.

Was he doing the right thing going out with Clarié? Now that he thinks about it, she didn't exactly say it was a date. She just wanted to hang out with him. But still...

Adrien still thought that something fishy was going on and he needs to be extra careful.

*DING* He looked down to his phone to see he just received a text from….

Clarié: Hey, I just arrived. I'm waiting out front.

Adrien: K, i'll be there in about fifteen.

Clarié: KK ;)

"Adrien? Was that Clarié texting you?" Adrien looked up at Nathalie who was turned around in her seat to face him.

He had forgot that he told his father and Nathalie that he was going to Skate N' Shake with Nino and Alya. He couldn't tell them that he was going with Nathalie; if he did, they absolutely wouldn't let him go, much less leave his room the entire night. To be honest he wouldn't be surprised if his father sued Clarié for assault against him and pays to get her thrown in jail.

Adrien smiled when he recalled what Clarié said when he told her that she shouldn't be picking any fights around him anytime soon.

"Ha! Like he can get me thrown in jail." She laughed she hard he thought she'll choke. "I can't get arrested, at least not for that. I have friends high up." She winked at him as she strode away, sexually.

Adrien blinked. 'Did that just happen?'

"Uh, yes ma'am." (A/N: I don't know if Adrien really calls her that but it just seems fitting, don't you think?) Adrien shook his head.

"Okay." She turned back around. "I want you to be careful around that girl. I know your father has somewhat forgiven her but we still don't know that much about her. She could be dangerous or even a spy for all we know."

He raised an eyebrow. "Spy? Where did that come from? Why would Clarié be a spy?"

"You never can be sure Adrien." Nathalie shook her head. "Besides lately I've seen your father doing some, interesting things with his businesses deals."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm not at liberty to say exactly, even if you're the heir to your fathers business. Let's just say that he's been making some decisions that could get him in trouble with the feds."

"You don't think that will actually happen do you Nathalie?" Adrien asked worriedly.

She looked distressed when she answered. "I'm not so sure about a lot of things anymore Adrien."

They sat in silence for the rest of the ride.

"Remember. Be careful Adrien!" He could hear Nathalie shout as he walked through the door of Skate N' Shake. "Remember what we talked about!"

He turned around to give her a small smile and a little wave; letting his ride know that they were heard, before turning around again and disappearing into the crowd.

Adrien knew that he was walking into a whole new environment for him, but he didn't expect anything quite like what he was seeing.

(A/N: Little fact - I had to do A LOT of research on the 60s for this chapter because of the theme of Shake N' Shake and how to describe it the way it looks in my mind. I also asked my friend Adam (aka the person Adrien in this story is based on) how would he describe a 60s Funquest (a skating rink near my house that we hang out at all the time.) if he was in one. He didn't really help the way I was expecting him to but he did give me ideas.)

Beatles songs turned modern blasted from the speakers hanging from the ceiling. The carpet floor was styled to look like it came straight from the 60s, the ceiling was popcorn and as he passed he heard people say the words 'retro' and 'peace out dude'. He looked to his right and saw a surf van (think of the Scooby Doo van) covered in peace signs and everything peace, built into the wall. One side used as the bar (where all the alcohol was kept on built-in shelves) and the other side a part of the kitchen. On the other side on the place was a big roller skating rink and an arcade while the other side was the restaurant, where people can eat and watch people rollerskate and dance to the groovy music. (see what I did there?)

*DING* Adrien opened up his phone.

Clarié: Already got a seat and I got a drink but I told them I'm expecting a number two.

'Now I just got too find you.' Adrien thought as he looked around for any sign of brown hair. He decided to try to find an employee to help him after a few minutes of searching with no luck. He saw the manager, or someone who looked like it, and walked to him.

"Hi, excuse me but may I ask you a question sir?"

"Sure dude~. Whats up cheesecake?" The man asked.

'Right. 60s theme so the employees talk like they did back then.' "Do you happen to know where the manager is?" Adrien asked.

"You're talking to him cheesecake." Replied the manager with a sly smile.

"Oh, I'm so sorry sir I didn't know." Adrien replied with shock and embarrassment clear in his voice and expression.

The manager threw his head back and laughed. "No worries cupcake. So what can I help you with?"

"I'm looking for a girl named Clarié. Do you happen to know where she may be?"

"Ah, the dixie chick? Sure do. Right over there my dude." He replied pointing to a table in a corner which was occupied by none other than the person he was looking for.

"Okay, thanks a lot!" Adrien said as he made his way over to the table.

As he walked, he noticed there were a few men in suits (A/N: MEN IN BLACK!) standing in various spots around the restaurant. Adrien brushed them off as security for if someone tried to rob the place or if a guy was a little too drunk, etc. Either way they were a little nerve racking.

"Hey." Greeted Adrien as he slid into the bench. Clarié looked up from her drink and smiled at him.

"Hey to you too. How are you?" She asked.

"Good, you?"

Clarié flashed a smile. "Hanging in there." They laughed.

Meanwhile a man on the other side of the building was watching the pair.

'Commander, do you have sight of Clarié and Agreste?' A voice boomed from his ear piece.

'Affirmative, sir.'

'Good. Everyone move in.'

I am by far the worse human being in existence! I AM SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SORRY! I've been writing every little chance I get. I've been so busy with school and I am doing beta work for other stories right now (not to mention re-writing my very first story) and doing a callab with one of my school friends, (I'll announce when that's out ;)) I've have no time at all for writing my own stories. I AM SO SORRY!

You can all punch me if you want. I deserve it.
