How you enjoy this longer chapter and please leave a review at the end thanks!
"Ok first day of school, you all ready honey?" Sabine Dupain-Cheng asked her daughter as she came down from her room.
"Yep this is the last of it. I can't believe todays the day I go to All Star Academy. How crazy is this?" Marinette comments while walking out of the bakery to the car, looking back at her home for the last time until Christmas. Soaking in the sight one last time.
"Alright I'm ready, lets go." Marinette says ready to hop in the car when she hears her name being called out by two familiar figures running down the street towards them.
"Mari wait, we're here!" Alya pants stopping at the girls side with Nino right behind her. "We're coming with you, Our parents are fine with it, so no protesting." She tells the bluenette.
A smile lights up her face and hugs her two best friends. "I wouldn't have it any other way."
The 3 of the including Marinette's parents hop into the car making a start on the long drive ahead of them.
The small blue Ford Focus pulls up to the school and into the guest parking. All passengers taking in the marvellous view of the Academy. Students walking around the grounds in regular clothes and teachers welcoming all new students. The Dupain-Cheng's plus Alya and Nino helped pull Marinette's stuff out of the car before walking over to the entrance.
"Hi, I am Marinette Dupain-Cheng a scholarship student for design and fashion, I was wondering if you could tell me where the dorms would be?" the petite girl asked a young, yet stand off-ish woman holding a clipboard.
"I'm sorry Ms Dupain-Cheng I am not a member of the staff here. I am simply escorting Mr Agreste to school. I do not know where the female dorms would be." She tells me coldly.
"Oh, I'm sorry for assuming that you worked here ma'am." Mari tries to apologise however is quickly saved when a woman comes walking over.
"Ms Dupain-Cheng?" She asks.
"Yes"
"Good, i am Madam Rosalina. Come with me i will show to you your dorm." The group starts walking behind the school principal as she talks with Marinette. "We however only have one current bed available as our other dorms are getting a renovation. These dorms are larger then he old ones however we have more students then we can house. So we are having to do co-dorms. I hope you don't mind. We've put you in the best room, however if it is to uncomfortable to share a dorm with a male we can make other arrangements. Normally he gets his own dorm as his father pays for it however arrangements have been made to allow this. If anything happens or goes wrong let me know straight away." Madam Rosalina talked as she took the group down the halls and around the school. "Any Questions?"
Nobody had any, Marinette however is so overwhelmed with this new information as she is taken to her room.
"If their aren't any questions, then i will leave you here. Your dorm is at the end on the right. Enjoy the view." She says handing over a card and key over to the girl before walking off.
"Alright lets meet my dorm mate." Marinette says walking to the end of the hall. She puts in the key for the room and opens the door. Her jaw drops at the sight. The have a corner room, leaving more space. 2 out of the 4 walls were windows and each window had a bed, desk and set of drawers beneath them. It was a beautiful sight. Their was also a small couch and T.V along with a small table and chairs. The only down side was the single bathroom, that will probably get awkward.
The room was empty minus a few bags on one of the two beds but it seemed like the owner took a hike. The entails on one of the bags was A.A.
"I wonder who that is?" Nino asked.
"I don't know but he's claimed that bed so i guess ill take the other." Mari told everyone as she walked over to it. "Just leave my bags on the bed, ill unpack later tonight. I think I'm going to go look around for a bit. Get acquainted to the school." She suggested.
"Alright dear, well get out of your hair. Please remember to call us at any time and we love you." her mother said giving the girl before her father comes over.
"We will miss you, but you stay strong and show this school who you are." Her papa grinned barrel saying goodbye.
Nino was next, his was quick and brief but meaningful before handing over to Alya who was already crying.
"Alya don't cry, we will still talk every night. That wont change and neither will our friendship." Marinette said trying to comfort her best friend.
"I know but school will be so different. What will i do without you?" She cried.
"You'll be brave, like i know you are and you stay with Nino. He will be there for you." Mari says.
"Your right. Goodbye Mari, talk to you later." She says giving her bestie one last hug before leaving.
"Thanks guys. I love you all." Marinette says once last time before Nino starts pushing Alya out the door before she can beg to stay here with her or convince said girl to come back. "Good luck Mari!" He says one last time, shutting the door leaving the girl by herself.
It was the first time Marinette has been by herself to think about everything thats happened over the course of the past week. It gave her time to think.
Everything in the past week came crashing down on her shoulders. Just a week ago she was a young girl with the dream of being accepted into such a prestigious school, then to open a letter that changed her life. Finally to be here in one of the best dorms in the school, sharing it with a male who shes never met is terrifying. This is his dorm and here she is coming in while hers is being built on the other side of the school, he's been kind enough to share even though he didn't have too.
As she reflected back she realised the she never expected to get accepted into such a school. Applying for All Star Academy was a long shot, nobody ever gets accepted on scholarship ship at All Star Academy. This could make or brake her career in the fashion industry. If she doesn't empress then she will be expelled from the school and will never make it into fashion, she will never live her dream of working under the great Gabriel Agreste before starting her own Empire.
Her thoughts were soon interrupted by the door being opened by a tall, blond guy.
"Oh, hey, you must be my room mate. I'm Adrien." The blond said walking up to the girl.
"Yeah I'm Marinette. Thanks for sharing the dorm with me. I don't think I would have been accepted had you not." She said introducing herself.
"Your the scholarship girl right?" He asked before continuing. "Your application was the best the school had seen in decades and you managed to impress my father. Nobody does that, not even me. When my father approved your application the school was shocked, he never does that. Then the school said that they didn't have any dorms available for any new students i step up and volunteered to share mine. Due to my fathers status i have one of the top dorms in the school and no one to share it with. All of my other friends are bunking with each other until the new renovations are done so i was happy to volunteer."
Marinette smiled at the Adrien, trying to figure out where she had seen him before, when suddenly it clicked. "Your Adrien Agreste, your father is Gabriel Agreste." She said slow trying to comprehend it all.
"Yeah, I probably should have mentioned that, shouldn't I?" He said rubbing the back of his neck. "Anyways which bed would you prefer?" He asked
The shocked girl look at the bed that currently held all of her possessions. "I'm fine with this one, all of my bags are already placed here so it'll make things easier."
"Alright well I'm going to let you settle in and I'm going to hang with my friends. So see you later for dinner." Adrien says kinda awkwardly before walking back outside the dorm.
After seeing the son of her Idol walk out of their dorm Marinette slouch on her bed as the days evens suddenly came into view. Her World turned upside down the minuet Adrien Agreste walked into the room. All of this suddenly make the standers to do well her so much higher. The Gabriel Agreste approved her application. His son is her dorm mate. She is now expected to be amazing at everything because idol is watching every step she makes. This leaves no room for failure in Marinette's book.
After looking around the room Marinette finally decided to take Adrien's suggestion and get settled in. She put in head phones and started sing as she worked on unpacking all of her stuff.
She became so focused that she didn't notice her room mate come back into the dorm.
And thats it for today so please leave a review to tell me what you thought. Love you all xx
