Chapter 17
It was finally happening. The moment Alya had been waiting for ever since her best friend told her she had a HUGE crush on Adrien Agreste.
She watched as her best friend danced with her dream boy to a slow song. She couldn't help but shed a few tears at the display.
"Here ya go babe." Nino said as he gave her a napkin.
"Thanks hun...I don't know why I'm so emotional right now."
"Maybe it's because this is what you hoped for with them." he said before adding," You were always shipping them."
"I know, I know..it's just that I remember when we lost Adrien how much it affected Marinette. I don't ever want to go back to that." Alya said as more tears came. Nino wrapped his arm around her shoulder to comfort her.
"Me either babe, me either."
"I don't see what's so good about him." Luka interjected.
"What do you mean by that?" Nino questioned. He had noticed the way Luka was acting towards Adrien. He hadn't done anything about it because Adrien wasn't bothered by it. However, he wasn't going to let anyone trash his brother. Not even Luka.
"Other than being Chat Noir the guy is nothing special. I mean back in the day Ladybug had to save him every time an Akuma attacked. If I was Ladybug's partner back then Akumas would have thought twice."
"But you're not her partner and you'll never be. Ladybug and Chat Noir work perfectly together and nothing can stop that. Now stop trashing him..or else." Nino threatened.
Alya could only look on in awe at her boyfriend. Way to go Nino! She wanted more than anything for him to show Luka his place but this wasn't the time or the place. She decided to intervene when Luka tried to exude his dominance.
"If you boys don't calm down I'm gonna shove my foot up somewhere you don't want it."
They both immediately looked away from each and took a couple steps back...from Alya.
"Anyways I'm gonna go get some punch." Luka said as he made his way to the punch table. He stared angrily at the obstacle in his way of Marinette's love. His anger rose when he witnessed Agreste place his hands on the small of Marinette's back. It rose even more when Marinette leaned into his chest. She never did that with him.
" I wouldn't want to be on the other side of those daggers you call eyes." said a feminine voice.
Luka looked over to the person that addressed him. She had a white and red Chinese styled dress on and her hair was the same color as Marinette.
"You should thank your lucky stars you're not." Luka bit out. He wasn't in a pleasant mood so he wasn't going to be pleasant with anyone either.
"Oh bad boy I see."the girl said before looking at what the boy was looking at. To her surprise she knew exactly who that was.
"So I see mr. white stole your girl."
Luka looked at the girl in bewilderment before he realized she must've been talking about Agreste.
" Yeah he stole MY girl." he stressed the my. Sure maybe he and Marinette weren't official yet but they were going to be.
"Names Kagami..maybe I can help you with your problem."
"The names Luka..why would you help me?"
Kagami grabbed some red punch from the table before continuing to talk.
" let's just keep it at a need to know...so do you want my help?"
Luka watched as Kagami eyes flashed and decided to go ahead with whatever she had planned.
"Sure, what did you have in mind?"
With Adrien and Marinette
Adrien gracefully spun her around as they dance to the beat of the music.
"You're an amazing dancer Adrien." Marinette said trying to compliment his smoothness. Unlike Luka, Adrien dance moves were more refined and perfected. She couldn't count on how many times Luka stepped on her toes. He kept stopping to check on her but she faked a smile to get past the pain. With Adrien it was different. It was perfect.
"Well I have an amazing partner." he said as he gave her a wink.
"Oh I'm not that good.." Marinette said shyly. A deep blush was forming on her cheeks from the way Adrien kept looking at her.
"Nonsense Marinette, you're probably one of the best people I've had the chance to dance with."
"Oh really?" she couldn't believe Adrien thought her dancing was good. She'd only done it a couple times but she wouldn't call herself good.
"Yep" he chuckled.
The song soon changed from slow to fast and spicy and Adrien slowly let her go. He backed up to arm length before bowing like a gentleman and raising his hand to her.
"Care to dance this with me Milady?"
Marinette let out a laugh as she placed her hand in his,"Only If you can keep up kitty."
Everything felt like a dream to Adrien as he danced with Marinette. When he danced with the instructors his father brought around he always forced himself to enjoy it, but with Marinette dancing was amazing. He laughed as she spun and hopped around the dance floor like a mystical fairy. She wasn't just good at dancing she was perfect.
As the song was finally ending he pulled her close to him and dipped her. Suddenly he heard the sound of clapping and cheering and look as a crowd had circled around them.
"Ah..people were watching." Marinette whispered. Her cheeks were flaring in embarrassment.
Adrien only let out a laugh and started to bow for the audience.
The crowd eventually died down and things went back to normal. Adrien looked towards Marinette and smiled at her.
"I had fun, but I bet you're tired and want to sit down huh?"
"Actually yeah, I have been dancing for awhile and my feet are starting to hurt." She said. She was glad for the break. Her feet were hurting.
As Adrien turned around to get to some tables he felt a cold liquid splash onto his chest.
"Ah...my bad" he heard someone say. They didn't sound all that sorry though.
"Ugh..um it's fine I should've watched were...Luka!?" he said in shock. He definitely figured the guy wasn't sorry at all.
"Man it's on your white tux too. That's your loss." he said as if he wasn't to blame.
"Adrien wants wrong?" Marinette said from behind him. She couldn't see Luka yet as he was blocked by his frame. She then walked around Adrien to see Luka with a cup and the big mess.
"Oh no this is terrible!"
"Sadly it is." Luka said with a smile.
Marinette who was facing Adrien couldn't see the smile Luka had on his face but Adrien definitely did.
He really didn't like Luka right now.
"I'm gonna go get cleaned up." Adrien said.
"I'll come with you." Marinette said.
"No I'll be fine...Alya and Nino are coming over anyways."
Adrien then gave his greetings to Nino and Alya before heading into the bathroom. Nino offered to go with him like Marinette but he declined him as well.
"A shame." Luka said before continuing," well while he's gone why don't we get to dancing?" he said as he reached out for Marinette's hand.
However, Marinette had other plans.
"Do you think I'm stupid? I know you did that to him on purpose." Marinette said with her anger rising. She was about to blow up on Luka. Her FORMER friend.
"It was an accident!" he tried to defend but Marinette cut him off.
"Cut the crap Luka. You never liked Adrien since he's been back and you've only been bullying him!"
"Marinette I promise you it was an accident."
That was it. He did the one thing Marinette hated the most. He lied. Right in her face like it was nothing.
Instead of yelling at Luka, Marinette calmly turned around before walking away.
" I hate lies. I also don't like people who lie."
Alya and Nino followed after Marinette and could only laugh as Luka was frozen in shock.
"You told him Mari!" Alya said cheering on her best friend.
"Yeah Marinette way to defend Adrien." Nino cheered as well.
"Oh shush you two." Marinette laughed out.
They waited near the bathroom for Adrien to come out when suddenly there's an explosion and the wall protecting the bathroom collapses.
What comes out from the smoke and rubble is no one other than Chat Noir swinging his baton against two enemies.
Chat landed on his feet and twirled his baton.
"Sorry if I'm feline a little rusty, I had a long cat nap."
A/N: Why do I have a feline like 99.9% of you were happy with that xD.
