I accidentally left out this first half sorry everyone. (Nino is a quiet person so try not to forget he's there)
"So who goes first?" Marinette asks nervously.
Alya rolls her eyes, "Well Adrian should have at least one round to view so he can get a better idea of the game. So I guess I'll go. Marinette, truth or dare?"
Marinette's heart stops for a moment, she knows she can't pick truth or Alya will somehow make her confess to Adrian, "Dare." Mari decides aloud.
Alya smirks, "Lick the face of the person to your left."
Marinette's face flushes, and she starts blinking looking to her left at Adrien, "Okay, it's just a dare."
She leans over and runs her tongue quickly across his cheek, by the time she's settled back down they both have red faces.
"Okay, now it's your turn Marinette. Also you can't pick the person who just gave you a truth/dare." Alya tells her in a happy tone.
Marinette forces a smile, "Truth or dare Adrien?"
Adrien ponders the question a moment, "Dare." he says, thinking about scary possibilities for truth.
"Um, how about you do your best impression of one of our friends until one of us can guess the correct answer?" She says, picking a purposefully mild dare.
Adrien smiles for a moment, then drops it and starts in a high pitched voice, "This is ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!"
And it was so perfect that Marinette and Alya bust out laughing, as they laugh he continued, "Daddy! I need my purse! UGH! NOT THAT purse! The new one! Useless!"
And Marinette and Alya laugh harder. "I'll have you know my daddy is mayor and so everyone has to know who I am!" Adrien keeps up the act.
Alya takes a breath, "Chloe! Okay, please stop."
Adrien stops, smiling. "Okay Alya, Truth or dare?"
Alya laughs, "Truth."
"What's the most embarrassing moment you've ever had?" Asks Adrien.
Alya groans, "UGH! You're supposed to be nice! Fine. So one time I may or may not have been caught um- with Nino, helping him out, like girlfriends do- by his mom."
Her cheeks are a warm pink by the end of her sentence, while Mari and Adrien laugh loudly.
"Adrien, truth or dare?" Alya asks calmly.
"Truth." Adrien says hoping for mercy.
"Who, in your opinion, is the prettiest girl in the room?" Alya asks.
Marinette's heart drops, she knows she can't compete with her best friend's beautiful curves.
Adrien's eyes widen then he blinks, "Oh um, Marinette." he answers looking down.
Marinette blinks, she must've misheard.
"Marinette, Truth or dare?" Adrien asks.
Marinette takes a breath, knowing she needs to pick truth next, "Truth." she doesn't waver for once.
"Is it true that you and Luka are an item?" He asks, looking at the floor.
Marinette blinks, "Well I like Luka and all, but no- um we aren't- it's not like that."
Alya smirks, "Girl, ask someone."
Mari bites her lip, "Nino, truth or dare?"
"Truth," Nino replies.
"Who is the hottest guy in our friend group?" she asks after thinking a bit.
Nino blushes, "N-no fair, you guys haven't answered anything like that!"
Alya smirks, "Just answer it babe, it's nothing to get defensive over."
Nino starts to think, "Well um, they're all good looking, ya know? I mean, Kim is athletic and stuff, and uh Adrien is a fricken model, and Luka, he's like a rockin guitar player. So I can't exactly pick one. "
Marinette blinked, "Oh wow, that's really insightful Nino, thanks."
"See I told you they wouldn't judge you," Alya teases him.
Nino starts again, "Anyway, Truth or dare Adrien?"
Adrien blinks, like he'd been lost in thought.
"Oh, um- dare, I guess," he answers hesitantly.
"Hmm," Nino thinks, "I dare you to… Tell Marinette one thing you've always thought about her, but never said."
"Oh well um, Marinette," Adrien smiles nervously, "well- I always thought she was really cool. She's nice, and kind to people even when others wouldn't be. She's got a leader attitude that really makes her an everyday Ladybug."
Marinette can't even breathe. There's no way this boy- the same one she can't get a proper sentence out to most of the time- is saying all of this about her.
"I guess I just wished she liked me more, I always seem to make her upset," Adrien finishes looking down.
Nino raises his eyebrows, "Dude, that was like, woah."
After breathing slowly for a moment, Mari says, "You don't make me upset, I'm just nervous you won't like me or that I'll ruin something for you. I'm such a klutz."
Alya blinks, "Girl, stop holding yourself to impossible standards. Just cause your human doesn't mean you're not worth being friends with."
Adrien smiles, "I always thought your clumsiness was cute. Almost like a, 'So she is human after all,' thing."
Marinette's face is beet red, "I- um I- thank you, Adrien."
"So Marinette, truth or dare?" Adrien asks her.
Marinette loses it, "Oh- I um- I- you-,"
Adrien sighs, deflating, "Or I could ask Alya."
"No! I mean- dare. Yes, definitely dare," Marinette says.
Adrien blinks, smiling tentatively, "Oh well, I dare you to… give me a hug."
Marinette is in shock, 'I knew he was lonely cause of his dad but wow,' the blush on his face was nice though.
"Of course," Marinette scoots over next to him and she wraps her arms around his shoulders, her face on fire.
He melts into her embrace, hugging her back tentatively. 'She's so warm and safe, perfect.'
When she starts to pull away he's reluctant to let her go,
"Can you stay here? Next to me," he asks gently.
Marinette blushes, "Well I-,"
"You don't have to, sorry, I shouldn't have even asked," Adrien says quickly.
Marinette shrugs, "It's fine," and settles down with their knees touching.
"So Alya, truth or-" Marinette asks.
Alya stops her short, "Actually, Nino and I have to go but you guys should have fun."
"Oh okay, bye," Adrien says, waving.
Alya is practically dragging Nino out the door.
'What am I gonna do now?' Mari thinks to herself.
Hey, just in case anyone wondered, I haven't updated in awhile cause I'm swamped with school work. I take the SAT this coming month, and I watch my toddler niece for my sister a lot. So updates might have space inbetween them but I don't give up on stories, just give me time and I'll get to it. In the mean time, I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
