(( I've got a bit of time so...let's update! :D ))

Dear Diary -

So in Ms. Bustier's literary class we've been studying holidays in different cultures. Alya opted for Spain, I did Austria, and Nino and Adrien picked America. (Nino found something about celebrated cheese sandwiches...the whole project was..."cheesy"...hehe!) When Adrien presented his project, he did it on their holiday called Thanksgiving, which is just this big day where apparently they get together and eat lots of food and sweets. I'm pretty sure the boy was salivating while presenting, hehe. Not that I was staring at his mouth!! It was just an innocent observation. Oh, who am I kidding? I was checking out every part of that boy. Project presentations are a perfect excuse to stare at someone without anyone (Alya...Nino...TIKKI...) giving you the suggestive eyebrow waggle (ok, yeah, Alya still gave me the eyebrow dance, but you better BELIEVE I did it back to HER when Nino presented - HA!)

Ok, I got a little off track.

So anyway, while I was openly staring at Adrien, I noticed how his eyes were just shining talking about getting together with big families and loys of food. And then he mentioned something about Friendsgiving. It's like Thanksgiving with all the food and whatnot, but they do it with friends instead of family. I think he almost teared up. It was almosy painful to watch.

I can't handle thinking about his home life. It's painful to me...and I can't imagine how much it must hurt to actually live that. He deserves so much love. It makes me love him even more, and I just...I just want to hug him ALL THE TIME.

Too bad I would collapse into a puddle if he so much as touched me.

There has to be something I can do.

Dear Diary -

I - we - did it.

We did Friendsgiving. At Alya's house. And it was the BEST thing EVER. Alya and her mom made a lot of the meal, and my parents and I made a lot of the desserts. Even Nino made...something (we couldn't decide exactly what it was, but he seemed to like it, whatever if was). Adrien was so surprised! He actually shed tears...we all ended up crying.

And yes, I've hugged my Adrien before but...nothing, nothing in my life had ever felt so good as that did. It was like the first time Chat had hugged me after a particularly frightening Akuma fight. It was...I don't really know...home? Something like that.

And I might have been imagining things, but...I think he mighmight have held me longer than anyone else.

And I have to say...hearing him whisper "thank you" in my ear...I'll be dreaming about that for months.

Happy Friendsgiving!

Spots off,

Marinette
