Marinette woke up one Monday morning and got out of bed. She opened her closet to pick out her daily Mari outfit. It was actually kind of fun to be Mari and get back at Lila. Yesterday they had a big fight at the mall and it was not pretty. She and her friends had planned to talk about their plan for the dance at lunch today.

"Hey Tiki, which outfit should I wear today," she asked her kwamii, Tiki flew over and inspected the options.

"How about that one," she said pointing to one of them.

"Good choice," said Marinette brightly as she gave Tiki a cookie. She put on a black graffiti t-shirt, dark grey ripped jeans, a black leather jacket and some matching leather biker gloves. She straightened her hair and put on her regular makeup. She packed her bag and went down stairs.

"My little girl is growing up," Sabine said as she gave Marinette(or Mari now) her lunch. Marinette rolled her eyes fondly at her mother, "Mommm, it's not like I'm a different person," she received raised eyebrows, "Ok, I'm not different person outside of school". She kissed her mother on the cheek and went down to the bakery and did the same to her father, who was making fresh croissants.

"Have a nice day at school," her father called as she sneaked out the back door so no one would see her. She walked to school and met with her friends in their regular spot in their classroom, apparently Nino was no longer allowed to be 'friends' with Lila because of what happened at the mall, and he didn't seem to care. Since class had not started, the girls were doing the Menagade on Tok Tiks, on sabrina's new phone that she had made Alya pay for. Chloe rolled her eyes at them and they got out their notebooks because Ms. Bustier had just walked in.

"Good morning class," she said brightly.

"Good morning Ms. Bustier," the class mumbled.

"Great to hear you've all woken up, anyway, I'm sure that you have all heard about the spring dance next week on the 26th of April", she said stealing a glance at Alya who was looking miserably at Nino, who didn't seem to notice, "The theme is flowers and spring time". Mari perked up at that and snuck her leather cased sketch book out of her bag and started working on designs for what her friends and her could wear. Since she was in the zone, she didn't notice that she had been drawing through the whole lesson, and she had to be lead to their meeting spot by Chloe. She also didn't notice when Chole sat her down on a chair because the girls had come over to yell at them for being friends with Marinette.

"How could you all," said Alix furiously

"Can you just not bother us, it's getting really annoying," said Adrien while Nino and Chole nodding their heads. It was true, every time they came over they started scolding them like they were little children and they were starting to get headaches.

"Just go away," said Nino

"How dare you," breathed Mylene

"JUST LEAVE US ALONE YOU PETTY FREAKS," yelled Chloe frustrated.

"Ugg, fine," scoffed Rose, and they walked away.

"They are seriously annoying," said Chole massaging her temples, "Hey Mari, how about we go to the spa, I am getting a serious headache".

"She's still lost," Adrien said looking fondly at her.

"Earth to Mari," said Nino waving his hand in front of her face.

"Uh, um wha-, I thought we were in class," Mari said looking around not seeing the classroom.

"Class is over, it's lunch now," said Chloe still massaging her temples, "And I asked you if you wanted to go to the spa because I have a headache from your annoying ex-friends".

"Sure Chloe, what are you two going to do," Mari asked looking at Adrien and Nino.

"We are going to have some much needed bro-time, right dude," Nino said looking at his friend.

"Totally," Adrien said with a smile and they fist-pumped.

"Ok cool, now come on Mari," Chloe said dragging Mari out of her seat and towards the school door.

"Where are we going," Mari said confused as Chloe pulled her away from their other friends.

"The spa, duhhh".

"Wha-, what about school!"

"Don't worry, I'll have daddy write us a note," Mari looked behind her and shared an amused look with Adrien who was listening to Nino babble about getting a job to D.J at his brothers friends birthday party. She waved to him as they left school property and headed to the mall.

The spa was actually really nice and relaxing, after that, they went to Chloe's room and ate lunch while talking.

"Soooo, who do you have a crush on," asked Chloe interested

"I don't think-".

"What about Nathanel".

"Nope, he-".

"Luka".

"Not rea-".

"Adrien".

"Not anymo-".

"Chat Noir".

"N-," Marinette paused, she was about to say no, but it felt kind of wrong.

"Oh my gosh," Chloe whispered, "OH MY GOSH," she squealed shaking Marinette's shoulders. Then she went on a big rant on how they should get together. Marinette on the other hand was shocked that she kind of liked CHAT NOIR. Not that he was a bad person or anything, but he was a little too extravagant for her taste. She got a text from her mom that she had to come home and she bid Chloe goodbye.

That night after dinner, she went to her room to go to bed. When she was about to get into bed, she heard tapping on the window.

"Hello Marinette," Chat Noir said smiling sheepishly.
