“Tiki, it okay! Just because she did this doesn’t mean she’s going to win,” Marinette tried to assure her.
“Oh yes it does!” Sabrina walked up to them with sneer. “Chloe worked so hard on this. She’s going to get it!”
“Sabrina, walk away from us before my fist meets your face!” Alya warned, sending Sabrina a glare.
Sabrina rolled her eyes but walking away anyway, walking over to Chloe.
“It’s okay, Tiki,” Alya assured her again. “I sent Rose, Mylene, Juleka and Alix to give the cupcakes out to everyone, telling them to vote for you. I still think you got this!”
“Thank you so much, you two.” Tiki pulled Marinette and Alya into a hug. “What would I ever do without you two?”
“That’s exactly it. Nothing!” Alya laughed.
“Anyway Alya, before Chloe rudely interrupted you, you said you had something to tell us,” Marinette reminded. “Care to tell us now that the trumpets and drum has died down.”
“Oh yeah, that’s right.” Alya took out a folded paper from her pocket. “I have a secret admirer. He sent me a love poem just before I got to school.”
“How would you know it’s he?” Tiki asked with a frown.
“I mean, it’s a love poem. I don’t any girl is interested in me. At least not that I know of, but I’m positive it’s a boy. And I have a feeling I know who,” Alya chuckled. “I’ve already make a list of who it could be.”
The first bell rang and the girls quickly started hurrying, not realizing they were going to be late for class.
Tiki had first class with Marinette, so both of the girls headed over there. Chloe sent them her usual smirk, but they were glad that she wasn’t in the same class as them.
As soon as Marinette entered class, her phone suddenly dinged, and she took it out, excusing the fact that the teacher was just about to start class.
A message from an unknown?
Marinette frowned, staring at her phone as she headed to the seat. She accidentally bumped I to a desk, but quickly apologized and continued on.
☆☆
☆☆ 8:29| A - meet me after school ☆☆☆☆
Marinette frowned even harder. A? Who’s A? She had a few ideas, after all she knew a few boys who had their names starting with A, but only one name stood in her mind.
☆☆
☆☆8:30pm A- don’t worry, I’m safe. I just need to talk to you about something important. By the way, this is Adrien ☆☆
☆☆
Even though she had suspended it was why she still blushed at the mention of Adrien. How did he even get didn’t remember ever giving him her number.
Before she could send a reply back though, the teacher cleared her throat and began class, telling everyone to put their phone away. Marinette sighed and put her phone away, but she had to admit- throughout the entire class, all her mind was on about was what Adrien wanted to talk to her about.
❣️❣️❣️
You seem distracted today,” Nino pointed out as he looked at Adrien. “You’ve been staring at you paper for quite some while. Is there a problem?”
Parents. “No,” Adrien quickly shook his head. His phone suddenly dinged and he realized he had forgotten to silence it.
“Check it out now,” Nino muttered once he heard the phone. “The teacher isn’t even in class now. You got a message.”
Adrien shrugged, taking Nino’s words and opening up the message that he had received from an unknown.
☆☆
☆☆ 8:29am| M - meet me after school ☆☆☆☆
He frowned. Nino peeked over with a smirk.
“Oh, you added a girl’s number to your contact now, hun? Adrien, since when? Thought you said you were going to have nothing to do with a girl until you were at least 20.”
Adrien shook his head, telling Nino he was wrong. “I didn’t. And beside, how can you be sure it’s a girl?” Before Nino could reply though, the phone dinged again.
☆☆
☆☆ 8:30am| M - don’t worry, I’m safe. I just need to talk to about something. By the way this is Marinette ☆☆
☆☆
“See, knew it was a girl. “Nino chuckled. “By the way, I never knew you and Marinette were close. When did you give her your number?l
“I didn’t,” Adrien turned to Nino again. “Oh, um I don’t know. If she says she had something important to say, then I guess I will go, just to hear what that important thing is.”
“Oh my, Adrien is finally coming out of his closet and finding a girlfriend,” Nino laughed, but quickly shut his mouth once Adrien sent him a glare.
The teacher walked inside the classroom, and Adrien quickly put his phone away, paying attention like he always did.
After class, Adrien and Nino walked out together, going to the class just beside them to find Plagg. Ones they peeked inside, Adrien backed away after realizing that Marinette was in the class.
“Tiki, Plagg, can you two please come up here?” The teacher of the class called out, making Nino go ‘oooo’ like he usually did once something like this happened.
“Looks like Plagg is in trouble,” Nino guffawed. “What for now?l
Marinette was sitting in her desk, waiting for Tiki to finish whatever was Groningen on, while the rest of the class walked out of the door. She noticed that Adrien was standing by the door, but she refused to make eye contact with him.
“Yes, Miss. B?” Tiki frowned, though her heart was pounding fast, she tried to stay cool as she stood beside Plagg.
Miss. Bustier sighed as she took out a paper. “Plagg, on our last tease you got a very low mark. I take it that you’re having problems with Math?”
“What? I… “Plagg didn’t say anything else as the paper was handed to him.
“Now, you may be wondering what this has got to do with you, Tiki,” Miss. B smiled as she turned to Tiki. “For you, you got a perfect score on the test. I’m worrying about Plagg is having problems, why don’t Tiki tutor…”
“M-me?!” Tiki didn’t wait for Miss. Bustier to finish. She didn’t have to, after all she always knew what the teacher was on about. “T-tutor him?!”
“Yes. Is there a problem with that?”
“No problem, Miss,” Plagg chuckled. He turned to Tiki with a smile. “Looking forward to it.” He spoke one sentence to her before he walked off.
“I’m glad,” Miss. Bustier smiled. “I hope it’s not a lot of problem on you, Tiki.”
“No, it’s fine,” Tiki blinked a couple of times. “No problem. You can expect an A star on Plagg’s test sheet when we have our next test.”
“Thank you.”
Tiki walled back to Marinette, motioning for her to follow her out the door. Marinette stood up and followed her friend out of the class,
Walking past the boys without a word.
❣️❣️❣️
“I still can’t believe it!” Tiki cried happily. “Oh my goodness, I have a lot on my plate right now, but why am I so happy?!”
“Um, because you’re tutoring your crush?” Alya laughed. She had just heard from Marinette that Plagg had been Tiki’s crush. “Tiki, you better not spend most of your time drooling over him when you’re supposed to tutor him.”
“I won’t mess this up!” Tiki exclaimed confidently. “He’ll like me, you’ll see.”
“Who wouldn’t like you?” Marinette walked up to her and patted her shoulder. “Now calm down, Tiki.”
Tiki nodded. “Oh goodness, I have my comic class with Nathaniel and Marc next. I’ll see you girls later.” Tiki waved at them, carried her bag and took off.
Tiki arrived to her class and stepped inside, quickly looking around to see that the whole class was already there. She looked to the corner and saw Nathaniel and Marc, and headed over to them.
“Hey guys,” She waved and they greeted her back. She unzipped her backpack and took out her unfinished comic that she had been working on.
“I’m glad you came to your very first class, Tiki,” Marc smiled. “Now let’s see what you’ve been working on.”
Tiki nodded and handed him the comic, and instantly his eyes went wide.
“Oh, what a nice artist you are, Tiki,” Marc chuckled and Nathaniel nodded, agreeing with him. “Alright, Marc and I will read this comic, but not now. You know what we’ve got to do.”
“Yup, Tiki nodded. She, Marc and Nathaniel had made some sort of awesome deal. Tiki would help them write a new comic, which she instantly agreed on. While Marc and Nathaniel would help her with the school president thing.
“Just look at the banner we’ve made,” Marc pointed out. Tiki looked and gasped. The banner was large, with painting of Tiki in the middle. At the top of the banner, it said “Vote For” and at the bottom, it finished the sentence, “Tiki!”
“Guys, I love it,” Tiki cried happily. “Now you guys are the best artist I know. Wait… How come you two don’t have Art class? It would be perfect for you!”
“Eh, there was a mix-up with our schedule. We did want Art class but instead we got Woods class,” Nathaniel spoke. “But Mr. Tanner is working on it, so soon we’ll be moving to Art class.”
“Amazing. My best friend, Marinette, is also there. You three could be Art buddies,” Tiki laughed at the idea.
“Why aren’t you in Art class, Tiki?” Nathaniel then asked her. “We’ve seen you work and you’re awesome.”
“I have tons of thing on my plate,” Tiki sighed. “And there were some classes that I preferred over Art. To be honest, I’d rather game than draw, so I joined Computers class, where we play and make games.”
Plus Plagg is also in the class. Before I used to prefer art over games, but now it’s changed. I’ve changed. And it’s all because I chose some of the schedules Plagg chose.
“Well, I hope you change your mind soon,” Nathaniel muttered. “It would be nice to see you there.”
Tiki shrugged. “I’ve already switched a class before, so I can’t do it now.”
Last year, just as the school year was ending, they got a form where they had decide which classes they like to go for.
No matter what they picked, Math, Science, Social Studies and E. L. A would always be there. You can’t exclude those classes. Also, when the school year started this year, you could switch a class if you don’t like the class you’re in, but you can only do that once.
“Alright, let’s go put this banner up,” Marc cleared his throat, before picking up the large banner from one side.
“Right!” Nathaniel joined in, picking the banner from the other side, and Tiki helped them by picking it up from the front. Together the three of them with the large banner walked out of the class.
