Marinette's P.O.V.

I sighed as I slumped at my chair. Madam Bustier was sick today, so a sub came but he is.....well.....lets just say he has a monotone voice. Half of the class was practically asleep by now! The only person who looked awake and eager about the lesson was Max. No surprise.

I played with my pink inked pen until a note fell in front of me. I looked around and saw Nathaniel smile and wave at me.

I opened the note.

Hey Marinette! I was wondering if you'd like to have lunch with me today?

Oh dear. Adrien already asked me to go this morning, but I don't want to hut Nathaniel's feelings. Maybe we can go as friends, I looked at a slumbering Adrien, he would agree right? And maybe I could convince Bridgette and Felix to tag along.

Sure, my friends would like to meet you. :)

I folded it back and threw it behind me and Nathaniel took it from the ground.

He frowned and scribbled something before throwing it back at me.

I mean alone, like a date.

I was afraid it would come to this.

Look Nath, I'm sorry, but I have to decline. You see, someone already asked me.

I threw it back at him and the bell rang, waking up the sleeping class.

"Who?" A voiced asked behind me.

I jumped and spun around to see Nathaniel's disappointed face.

"Just someone in our class." I said as I packed my things.

"It's Adrien, isn't it." He said without emotion.

I continued to pack. "What makes you say that?"

"Simple. Ivan is with Mylene, that crosses him out. Kim will be too busy with Alix and he'd obviously drag Max with him as the referee and he's with Sabrina, both of them are out. Nino is with Alya and Adrien is the last one standing."

I cursed in my head. He's smarter than I gave him credit for. I looked around and saw that everyone had already left.

"And that's a bad thing why?"

He looked shocked for a moment before anger replaced it.

"Marinette, have you forgotten what they did to you?! Especially him?! I was there, I took care of you, I stood by you! And you choose him?! I can make you happy, just choose me. I love you Marinette. And didn't they say that actions speak louder than words?"

He's got a point. He did stood by me, but I only see him as a friend or even a brother, but something in me wants Adrien. I know that I should hate him, but ever since I saw his heartbroken face, all I could think about was kissing that face off.

Why am I feeling this?!

I shook my head." I gotta think about this."

He nodded." Just remember, I was there with you."

I picked up my bag and went to find Bridgette, I need advice. Who do I choose?

With Adrien ~

   Class was boring and I hated History. The only reason why is that I don't have this class with Marinette. I saw how Nathaniel looked at her and I didn't like it. He's up to something.

I won't let anyone take Mari away from me. I love her. And if she doesn't love me back, I'll fight for her. I'll fight until she gets married to someone else. But I hope that I would be the one she marries. But I have low hopes for that.

She's still cautious around me, like I could hurt her any moment and turn against her like I did before. And I honestly couldn't blame her. I did hurt her feelings the hardest.

I guess that I'm just lucky to have her accept my invitation for lunch.

Very, very lucky.

But if my feelings were right, tomato boy would be asking her out right now, I just hope that she didn't agree. I just got her back and I'm not losing her to someone else just like that. I have to make her fall for me again.

I just need time.

Nathaniel's P.O.V.

I need her to fall for me. I just have to. She deserves better than Agreste and that someone is me. I love her, and I was there when she needed someone the most. She just needs to open her eyes and see that I'm the better choice.

Disclaimer: I do not own MLB, cause if I did, then Adrien and Marinette would have revealed their identities in a dramatic way. And Chloe would be like, ' DADDY, I WANT HER EARRINGS, I WANT IT!!!' And everyone would be like,' what a spoiled brat.'
