It was a weird day. Literally, it was. Nino and Alya couldn't help but feel like their best friends were hiding something from them. Which was pretty obvious considering their expression was lacking happiness and more of an embarrasing facial expression. To say that they actually kissed each other (Even though Marinette is dense because she hasn't even figure out that Adrien is Chat Noir and same goes with Adrien), both of them felt something strange when they did it, but Marinette and Adrien decided to forget about the kiss and focus on school.

But that didn't last long...

It was lunch time and Alya was dragging her best friend to the park. She was furious about the fact that Marinette hasn't been answering her questions about what happened to her last night and why she was so distracted. At first, she thought it was Adrien. But the way Marinette didn't seem to bother about Adrien being late or feeling a bit sick made her think that she finally moved on? No way! She couldn't move on that easily. Can she?

5 minutes later and the two girls finally made it to their favourite bench. They took out their lunch while sitting down and enjoying the lovely day they were having. Unfortunately, Marinette didn't feel like enjoying the sunny weather, she was so deep in thought that she hasn't realised that her best friend was just staring at her, creepily.

"So," Alya begins.

"Aren't you gonna tell me what's going on?" It seems like Alya couldn't take it anymore. She couldn't take the fact that the girl who is always so happy and energetic and clumsy, is silent and deep in thought. What's even weirder than this is that she was some what happy this morning when she arrived to school, but by the time she saw Adrien, she just became all stiff and silent and wasn't even stuttering infront of him when he talked to her. Crazy right!?

"What do you mean?" Marinette sounded distant but she was trying to look happy when she was around Alya, which wasn't working since Alya is known for figuring things out because she, for some reason, was a very clever journalist. Even for her age.

"Don't get me wrong, I like how you're trying to be happy around me but, I just feel like there is something keeping you from telling me the problem." Alya was getting more tensed, since the bluenette isn't even admitting that there is something holding her back.

"I want to, but..."

"But what." Arms crossed, Alya's eyes were looking like they were about to turn red.

"I can't properly explain it. It's just hard to say that someone that you like might not be the person you really want." Marinette said, letting out a sigh.

"But now to think of it, I'm stuck between two and I can't figure which one is better!" Silence. There was just silence. Alya's eyes were now wide as the ocean, not believing what she just heard, and also not believing that Marinette can even say these things.

"Oh. My. God." Alya said, while covering her mouth.

"What?"

"OH. MY. GOD!" Alya started to squeal, which made Marinette's ears explode.

"WHAT'S SO CRAZY THAT YOU HAVE TO MAKE ME GO DEAF!"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU!"

"WHAT?" Frustated from why Alya is like this, Marinette decided to put her lunch back into her bag and started to stand up.

"YOU'RE IN A LOVE TRIANGLE GIRL!" Alya is way too excited about my love life Marinette thought. She shook her head while giving out a silent giggle. This was going to be hard to explain.

"So," Alya started, finally calming down after that crazy session of screaming and exploding everyone's ears off.

"Who's this mystery boy of yours?" Alya said while quirking an eyebrow. She felt so eager to find out who this boy is that she forgot that school is about to started in 5 minutes.

Meanwhile...

"ARE YOU JOKING DUDE?!" Nino exclaimed, his conversation with Adrien, who was leaning on the table in the class they were about to have, was simply the same conversation Alya and Marinette are having (but they didn't know about that just yet).

"I'm not joking Nino." Adrien started, arms crossed and face down because of the uncontrollable blush Adrien was experiencing.

"I just finally feel like I should move on but I can't because she is so amazing and selfless just like Marinette but I don't want to date because she is similar to her but it's because Marinette has always been there even though she always stutter around me, but I also feel like if I moved on, I would break the girl's heart! And I'm pretty much confused about what is happening right now! I just don't UNDERSTAND!" Nino's eyes were wide open, trying to process the words that his best friend just said. Adrien was practically rambling on about who he should choose. Marinette? Or the mystery girl.

Wait a second...

WHO THE HELL IS THIS MYSTERY GIRL.

"Wait a sec." Nino interrupted.

"Who. Is. This. Mystery girl you are talking about" His arms were crossed while he was quirking an eyebrow.

"Um... She's uh l-lad-" before Adrien could finish the sentence, the bell rang, giving all the students a warning that they have an extra 5 minutes to get to class before the class starts.

After the bell finished ringing, Nino was about to speak again until he was rudely interrupted by two people scrambling into the classroom. Unfortunately for Nino, it was Alya and Marinette.

When Adrien saw Marinette, he was relieved about the fact that she saved him on time or else he will have been in serious trouble with Plagg if he found out that Adrien had to tell Nino about his secret, which was of course being Chat Noir.

As the two girls started walking towards their seats, Adrien grabbed Marinette's wrist, just in time for him to ask her a question. This, surprisingly, made everyone shocked and grasping for air when they saw Adrien stopping the bluenette. But the person who was even more shocked was Adrien. He didn't have the guts to actually say anything but for some reason he had the guts to suddenly grab the girl by the wrist, making her confused. While holding on to her wrist, they locked eyes, giving a magnificent mixture of ocean blue and emerald green, swirling together to make a rich and beautiful moment that the two confused teens can share. It wasn't until seconds later that Marinette started speaking.

"Is everything alright Adrien?" No answer. He was just staring at her. Weird. What's even weirder is that his grip around her wrist was getting tighter and tighter each second.

"Adrien, can you let go of my wrist please? You're hurting me a bit." Suddenly, Adrien snapped out of his thoughts and realised what was going on.

"Oh! Uh... Heh... Sorry." He said sheepishly, letting go of the wrist that he was gripping. Great. Just great. Adrien thought. I can't believe I embarrassed myself in front of everyone. Especially Alya and Nino!

Class started and everyone was in their seats and were focused on what the teacher was saying. Well, not really everyone...

Hey guys! I just wanted to say sorry for not updating. I've been pretty busy with schoolwork and also homework and preparing for tests. Right now, I want to point out that I hate giving excuses even though I always do, and I also want to point out that I will publish the next chapter tomorrow as a way to say sorry for no update.

Love you guys!
