Tom Dupain was visiting his daughter's class for a quick culinary class. These were Adrien and Naia's favourite lessons because, as few and far between as they were, you always left with a new comfort food you likely never knew about. Today however, Naia was positioned close to the window watching her classmates carefully; she had offered to hold on to Marinette's phone for her and was staring at Chloe Bourgeois complain about being taught how to make croissants (macarons).

Chloe walked to the window of the classroom and Naia overheard her say multiple words that sounded equal parts Chloe, and like a call to the fire department. Marinette had just been asked to take her dad's chocolate ganache to the cafeteria fridge when, surprise surprise, the fire alarm went off. She made a quick promise to herself to stop by the bakery and pick up some macarons and walked out of the classroom.

20 minutes later the whole school was stood in the courtyard and was being lectured by their practically inept, head teacher,

"So, some smart aleck had the bright idea of calling the fire department."

A bunch of the school gasped,

"Somebody among us thought it would be funny to waste the fire captain's time."

Said fire captain then attempted to leave and say that it wasn't as big of a deal as Damocles was making it now that it was over. The man didn't listen and proceeded to demand an apology or the whole school would be punished. Naia decided that she would give one attempt to prevent the Akuma by having Chloe get caught out and if that didn't work. . . well then Chloe got a little bit more character development.

"Mr Damocles sir," said girl called out,

"Yes, miss Bourgeois?"

"I saw a student leaving the classroom right before the alarm went off." Naia decided then and there that she looked way to smug for there not to be an ulterior motive,

"It must have been her."

"Really? Who was it?" Damocles demanded.

"Let's see if she'll come clean, What do you say, Marinette-Dupain-Cheng?"

Naia rolled her eyes and waited for the blow up before the defense.

"Marinette? Do you have something to tell the captain?"

Adrien spoke up like the night in shining armor he would always be,

"Uh, wait. Excuse me, sir, but it couldn't possibly be Marinette. Why would she disrupt her own father's cooking class?"

Alya chimed in like a solid bestie, "And I know for a fact that Marinette didn't have her phone on her when she left the classroom."

It was her turn now, "I myself was and still am holding onto it for her." She handed it to the accused girl, "Unlike you Chloe, I saw you on the phone minutes before the alarm and distinctly heard the words, 'Fire', 'Dupont', and 'Hurry it up already'."

Students turned toward Chloe and muttered, unimpressed. She blustered, "I was in the phone to Daddy, talking about how lame this school was and to get Mom over here so I can move to New York and go to an awesome school there instead."

The fireman attempted to leave only to be stopped again, "Fine, since no one is owning up the whole school is to be punished!" everyone began groaning and Chloe threatened the head with her daddy's name until she was exempted. But Naia still held an issue with that other than the obvious one,

"Sir, why are you still punishing Marinette too? We confirmed she didn't do it." Alya and Adrien nodded next to her and Marinette was trying to say it wasn't necessary but mr Damocles heeded her words.

"The whole school us to be punished, with the exception of miss Bourgeois and miss Dupain-Cheng."

After school that Friday, Naia, Rose, Juleka, Myléne and Alya were all visiting Marinette's to try out some accessories when they each got a notification on their phone bar Marinette.

"Chloe's inviting me to a party" Alya said, baffled.

"Huh, me too,"

"Me too,"

"Me too,"

"Wow, she even invited me when I tore into her not a month ago"

"That's so nice of Chloe!" Rose squeaked.

Marinette scoffed, like full on incredulously scoffed, "Chloe and nice in the same sentence? Can't be her!"

"This is her alright," Naia said.

The designer checked her phone, "I haven't received a text,"

"Then it must be her," Alya laughed.

Naia closed her eyes and counted, "3... 2... 1."

"EW! She invited me!"

"Awesome! This will be so much fun!" Rose squealed. Marinette looked like had whiplash, "Wait! You're actually going to go?"

"She probably wants to say sorry for this morning. Maybe's she's nice." Myléne paused, "Very, very, deep down."

"Chloe?" Marinette said dramatically, "No, she's the exact opposite of nice. Whatever, you guys can go but don't count me in."

The Slytherin sister smirked, "I know Chloe's invited Adrien and he never turns down one of her invitations. He's too soft on her."

"It's Nino. He's going to the party with Adrien." Alya said, not looking up from her phone. Marinette jumped into the air in shock.

"O-okay, yes, you guys are right! We should totally give Chloe one more chance!"

All of her friends broke into laughter.

The 2 sets of best friends and the world traveller walked into the Grand Paris Hotel and Naia was instant said,

"Brace yourself." to her brother who only looked at her confused, before being jumped by his childhood friend.

"Adrikins! What do you think of me hosting this party? Really nice of me, right?" She said as she painted his cheeks with her lipstick.

"It's awesome, Chloe." he said while he wiped his cheeks. Chloe then proceeded to get treated to some instant karma from their classmates greeting her. Naia took out her camera and got in position. Chloe walked blindly towards Marinette and reluctantly they greeted each other.

Naia began taking a video as they kissed and jumped away from each other, mirroring the other to get the kiss off their cheeks.

Alya burst into laughter, "I should have caught you guys on video!"

"Never fear Alya! I caught it on tape!" Naia announced, "And I will be selling copies of that glorious moment to anyone who asks for 5 euros."

The reporter calmed down enough to get out, "Usually I would complain at the price but that moment was truly priceless. Here you go," She handed 5 euros over and the video popped up on her phone.

Naia was hanging out with Nathaniel, Alya, Marinette and Adrien at the bar when Chloe rocked up in as Chaotic a way as she could muster.

"Having a good time?"

Myléne danced her way to the bar, "Whoa! All this dancing's made me thirsty. Do you know where the ice cubes are?"

It was only too soon before Chloe cracked, "How should I know? I'm not your servant! Go and find them yourself and if you're so hot, why don't you take off your fake sheep skin sweater? Throw it in the trash where it belongs!" the small girl began to tear up,

"I'm totally joking. I love mutton! I'll get you those ice cubes!" She went to grab the ice but Naia put her hand on the girls arm. 'Fuck it. I don't want to deal with an Akuma today'.

"You relax Chloe, I'll get the ice. You have some fun at your party. I'd be happy to help."

"But why? There was genuine shock in her facial expression.

"Because that's what being nice to your friends is about. I enjoy helping, you go have fun with Sabrina, she deserves to feel appreciated." The wolf girl said, her eyes brightening. Chloe gave a small, but very real smile before returning to her mask and walking off.

"Marinette, could you help me find the ice?" She asked giving her a look that said 'no arguments', "I'll have those ice cubes to you soon Myléne."

"Thank you Naia!"

Marinette and Naia walked into the kitchen and paused behind the door, "There's an Akuma hanging about waiting for Chloe to fuck up and hurt someone. If you can grab it before it chooses someone I'll have Adrien ask you to dance and stop Chloe from intervening."

Marinette looked at her sharply and nodded, "I'll get right on that." she ran into the stairwell to transform. Naia walked back outside with a cool box in her arms.

"Here you go M," She said dropping four cubes into Myléne's glass and stowing the box in the mini fridge. Naia heard a yoyo string and a collective gasp.

"You won't even get a chance to do evil today Hawkmoth!" Ladybug said as she purified the Akuma, "Hawkmoth was going to use this party and Chloe's previously famous cruelty to create a super villain," She turned to Chloe who looked like she had just been shocked out of a rampage, "I trust you'll remain on your best behavior like you have so far?"

She nodded rapidly, "You got it Ladybug."

"Alright then. Bug out!" She swung out the window. Minutes later Marinette returned and went to excuse her absence to Alya.

Naia paused next to Chloe's butler who had just sent Chloe off to dance with Kim, "Hello, what's your name?"

He looked surprised yet delighted that someone had finally asked his name, "Jean, although Mademoiselle tends to forget it is that simple."

Naia giggled, "Well Jean, I just wanted to say that you have been doing a wonderful job keeping Chloe in line. But I would like to tell you that you should probably put 'Mr Cuddly' away. If anyone else sees him, Chloe will lose her cool and likely direct her anger at you. I don't want that and I doubt you do either. I'll take over Chloe control for the rest of the evening and you can enjoy yourself."

Jean was startled, "I had not realized- but you are right. It isn't necessary for you to take charge but I'll refrain from reproducing mr Cuddly."

She shook her head, "Nonsense, you've earned the right to at least half an evening off. Now go before I make you" She added, playfully threatening him. He walked off and the girl who could do anything walked up to Nino only to realize that Marinette and Adrien were already dancing.

She looked around, satisfied, and saw Alya very obviously maneuver the 2 to dance much more intimately. Then she saw Chloe go to disrupt them and quickly intercepted her,

"Chloe I swear to Chaos that if you try to break them up I will castrate Mr Cuddly and show him off to the whole school." she murmured in Chloe's ear.

Chloe let out a small shriek and scampered back to Kim. Alya caught her eye and she gave her an ok symbol.

When the song ended and Chloe went back to the bar and Naia walked over to her. Chloe looked terrified but she put up her hands, "Don't worry, I just have a suggestion on how to make this night perfect, especially in Adrien's eyes."

Tom Dupain stood opposite his daughter class congratulating them on the success of their macaron class. All was well, for now.
