Marinette P.O.V.
"So how many days can I stay?" Alya asks me, we're talking about our winter break plans. Just one more day of class and we'll be out of this hell.
"As many days as you want, my parent's extended their staying a bit so they won't be back until the sixteenth" I tell Alya as I doodle on the edge of my science notebook.
"Wow, aren't they scared about business?" Alya asks me surprised that my parents would close up that long.
"They've had that bakery for a little more than twenty three years now! They have quite a bit of money saved up you know, plus they have told are customers that they won't be here, these are customers we've had for years now, plus I promised I would open up the bakery at least once a week once January starts" I tell her.
"Oh, well it's nice their taking a vacation for themselves. You do realize that as your best friend I can't leave you alone in the bakery for so long," alya says giving me her signature smirk. I'm scared for whatever she's going to say.
"You invited Adrien right? because I already invited Nino to come the twenty sixth" Alya asks, well thanks Alya for semi changing our subject.
"Yeah he said he would come" I tell her making her give me those evil eyes.
"Great then we can all have a sleep over" she says to me.
"Oh no we're not, Alya we are sixteen we can not just have a sleep over with two boys when my parents aren't home" I tell her, as much as I love Alya this is a bad idea and she knows it.
"Mari, we won't be doing anything bad! Well at least not you and Adrien" she says giving me a smirk.
"Alya! This is a bad idea and you know it, I've never had a sleep over with boys and I don't plan on having one soon. How would my parents feel about this? If they found out two boys slept over what would they think?" I lecture her.
"Don't sweat it! That's why we can ask them!" Alya says... okay I forgot we could do that.
"I doubt they would agree, plus how am I supposed to ask them?" I ask Alya who takes out her phone.
"Simple, I'll ask them for you" Alya says as she looks through her contact list.
"I got this girl, I'll be right back" she says as she goes outside the classroom. I sigh and wait until my ombre haired best friend returns, we're in what we call "free period", everyone is either talking inside or outside the classroom. It's basically like another lunch break but it's as long as any of our normal periods.
I sit there for a couple minutes, just doodling in the corner of my notebook, Nino and Adrien are off who knows where so I can't even talk to them. Finally I see Alya enter the classroom, she looks at me for a couple seconds with a blank face and I look back.
"Well, your parents... said yes!" Alya says very proud of herself.
"Are we really doing this Alya?" I ask her.
"Girl, have I ever lied to you? Don't answer that, look Mari, you need to loosen up! Your parents are fine with it so don't sweat it!" Alya says, I just sigh and don't argue.
"Pound it!" me and Chat say as the city of Paris is once again saved by us.
"We nailed it" Chat says as I groan, this time our victim was a construction worker.
"Get some better puns kitty" I tease him.
"You love them and you know it" he says giving me a smirk as I just roll my eyes.
"Whatever kitty, you have to go or everyone will see your identity" I tell him.
"Wait, I wanted to ask you something" he stops me as I reach for my yo-yo.
"Chat we're going to de-transform," I say to him as my earrings beep, "if you want to talk, we can go to my house" I say, he nods and we hurry to my house, we slide in the balcony and de-transform the moment we enter the room. I accidentally bump into Chat as we de-transform and end up making us fall on to the floor instead of my room.
I hear him groan as we land on the floor and notice I'm on something soft... and warm... and that smells really nice... I LANDED ON ADRIEN!
"Well, seems like we fell for each other m'lady" he says as he sees me on top of him.
"I-I'm so sorry," I say as I start getting of but I feel his arms wrap around my waist making me stay.
"Can't we stay like this forever?" he asks me playing around.
"Silly cat, what did you want to ask me?" I ask him as I get off him and sit on my bed.
"Oh right... I wanted to ask you if you wanted to um... go out... with me... on Christmas day" he says, okay... I definitely was not expecting that.
"M-me?" I stutter, is this real? I can die in peace now!
"Yeah, I know it's sudden but I wanted to invite you to a ball! It's on Christmas day, it's hosted by a modeling company my father is working with, it's theme is "Cinderella's ball, which seems ridiculous considering it's Christmas but yeah. I know it's really sudden but since you know how to sew I thought maybe you'd be able to make a dress..." he rambles on which is very cute.
"Adrien..." I say.
"I think he's broken" I hear Plagg say as he stuffs a piece of cheese into his mouth.
"I think you'd look really nice in a ball gown, unless you don't like dresses! Then I would understand why you wouldn't want to go..." he continues to ramble making sigh.
"Adrien..." I repeat.
"It's going to be cold that day as well! What if you freeze? I mean ball gowns don't have sleeves!" he exclaims as he continues to ramble.
"Adrien Agreste!" I exclaim making him snap out of whatever trance he was in causing him to blush, "I would be honored to go with you" I say smiling at him.
"R-really m'lady?" he asks me his face now a crimson color.
"Why would I lie?" I ask him.
"W-well..." he says as he looks at the floor.
"Dumb kitty, actually I forgot to ask you if are you coming to my house on the twenty sixth after all?" I ask him, today was our last day at school and Alya said she would talk to the boys about the sleep over and all the details. I myself don't know much about it.
"You bet! I even convinced Natalie into letting me, since my father will also be out of the city until the ends of January so we arranged it" he tells me as he rolls around in my chair, accidentally knocking down some of my pencils.
"Ugh, be careful or you'll destroy by bedroom" I tease him.
"Sorry princess, I think I should get going before Natalie realizes I'm gone, I'll text you as soon as I get home," he says as he winks.
"Okay kitty cat, be careful," I say to him with a smile.
"Plagg, claws out!" Adrien says as the Kwami slips into his ring interrupting his conversation with Tikki. I watch as he transforms and giggle at how different yet similar our transformations are.
"Even if I don't want to, I must leave my princess, text you later" he says and with that he hops out of my window and leaves.
"Well. I guess I have to start working Tikki! We have six days to make this dress this is possibly going to be one of my best or worst creations!" I say to Tikki as I stand up and head towards my chair to start sketching.
A/N: This was short but I feel like it was pretty eventful. Alya sure has good persuasion skills don't ya think? And Adrien is a cute nervous wreck!
So you guys think I should make some art of Marinette in her ball gown? Or nah?
