"Hey Sabrina".
The caller ID was unfamiliar, but Sabrina expected that. After all she'd bought the burner phone, on Chloe's instructions, and programmed it with all the numbers Marinette and Chloe gave her. They'd both said he had to be able to call any of his friends at any time. Sabrina had been surprised that they agreed on something, let alone that they were working together.
Until that evening, when she'd let herself and Nino into the hotel room, and seen Adrien.
She'd picked up her butterfly net and gone to stand outside Chloe's door, where she could let people in as they arrived. It was only coincidence that she stood where she couldn't see his face anymore.
"Hi", she answered back.
"Sabrina?" her dad called from the family room. "You're supposed to have your phone off during homework time".
"Actually", the familiar male voice on the other end of the phone said, "it's him I want to talk to. Would you mind?"
"Not at all", she said, trying to hide her relief. "Dad, could you come here a minute?" she called out.
When her dad came in she handed him the phone, saying only "It's for you".
"What's up?" he asked her, surprised.
"I don't want to know", she replied. Then she went to raid the fridge. It sounded like her mum was watching the results of tonight's Top Chef elimination, so the tennis essay could wait a little longer.
