"And plié!" Mrs. Bustier, the ballet teacher said. "You are doing a great job ladies! See you tomorrow, class!" She said and left the class. Alya walked to a bench in the class room. She sat down and let a slight sigh escape her mouth.

"Ballet... It's just had to be ballet..." She mumbled under her breath.
Too bad for Alya her best friend, Tikki, had watched and heard the whole scene.

"Hey , what's wrong Aly?" Tikki asked walking towards her. She was wearing a white tutu as the rest of the class , her orange hair held up in a bun with a polka dotted flower in her hair. In her ears, two earrings with the same pattern as the flower . She never took them off, she said those were an amulet of good luck.

"I'm not in the mood for nicknames, Tikki" Alya said laying back in the bench.

"Hey, what's with the cat-titude?" Tikki asked while the brunette rolled her eyes.

"I'm really not in the mood for puns" Alya replied crossing her arms.

Tikki frowned "You can trust me , you know? Whatever is wrong , you can tell me" She said putting one hand in her shoulder.

Alya let another sigh escape from her mouth "I can't keep it up with Ballet" She finally said "It's my worst dance. I just can't keep it up any longer. If I fail at the end of the semester, it's over. I would be done with this academy and bye-bye dream." She explained and looked at her feet. In that second, a girl with blonde hair and blue eyes walked towards Tikki and Alya, smirking.

"Is that right, Alya?" The diva asked "You're such a klutz that you can't keep it up with the easiest dance? How pathetic!" She laughed.

Alya looked down while Tikki clenched her fist. "It was about time before someone kicked you out of the academy!" The girl laughed again.

"That's enough Chloe! You crossed the line!" Tikki yelled. "You're here just because your father is the mayor and he payed!" She continued while the rest of the students that were there gasped.

Chloe looked like a burning tomato. She took a deep breath and smirked "Oh really , Tikkiria?" Chloe began as Tikki flushed in anger. "I'm not only the best dancer in the place, I also know Everyone's secrets, including yours..." She booped Tikki while she looked furious at the blonde. "And if you don't want to sink to the very bottom of the ocean, you will shut your mouth right.now." Chloe said and lifted Tikki's chin as she flushed madly.

"Hey! You have no right to treat her that way!" A voice exclaimed from the back of the room.

"Who said that?!" Chloe asked while a girl with bluebell eyes walked towards her.

Her name was Marinette, she attended to the academy but not as a dancer. Her family didn't have enough money to pay for the school, so she worked there as the designer of the clothes for the academy. Even though she didn't participate in the classes she always watched how the teacher taught the students, so she learned while the students did. She knew everybody, but no one knew her.

"I said that!" Marinette exclaimed while Tikki and Alya and everyone looked at her.

"What do we have here?" Chloe said and smirked.

Marinette didn't pay attention to Chloe. She just walked towards Tikki and smiled kindly.

"Um, HELLO?! Are you going to ignore me forever?" The mayor's daughter asked.

Marinette rolled her eyes "You know, Chloe , there is a saying that says 'Stupid words come from a stupid mouth'." Chloe looked at Mari with her jaw almost on the ground.

"YOU ARE THE STUPID GIRL WITH STUPID MOUTH AND STUPID EVERYTHING!" Chloe yelled at Marinette while three boys entered to the room. Their names were Nino,Adrien and Plagg , another students from the academy.

"Looks like you've got no more insults, do you?" Mari replied.

"Hey what's going on?" The blonde boy asked while Marinette turned around. When their eyes met, she blushed deeply. Those emerald eyes made her melt.

"L-let Chloe e-explain to you..." She stuttered while blushing.

"Oh Adrikins! Good thing you came here to pick me up! This girl, Odette-"

"It's Marinette, Chloe!" Tikki exclaimed.

"Odette, Marinette , Bridgette... What's the difference? Anyways, I was saying that this girl just insulted me! Can you believe it?!" Chloe shrieked while putting her arms around Adrien's neck.

In that second, Alya couldn't hold it any longer. She was tired of Chloe's lies. She wasn't going to be there , looking to the ground all her life, was she?

"Don't switch the roles , Zoey!" Alya exclaimed walking towards the girl. Everyone on the room looked at Alya, who had been silent all the time.

"It's Chloe, you idiot!"

She placed her hand on her hip and lifted her finger "Chloe, Zoey, Cleo...What's the difference?" Alya said imitating Chloe.

"CANT YOU GO AND LOCK YOURSELF IN A CAVE?!" Chloe shouted at Alya. She wasn't afraid of Chloe anymore. The bluenette had made her earn confidence, even though she didn't know her.

"Wise words Chloe, why don't you do what you say? See if it helps us get rid of this headache." Alya said calmly. Now Everyone's jaw was on the ground. "You are not worth a shot ,Chloe . Time is gold, and I'm loosing my time here. Let's go girls, I heard that there's a smoothie shop opening today"Alya said as Tikki and Marinette followed her out of the room.

"Goodbye Cookie Monster" Plagg whispered at Tikki's ear as she rolled her eyes.

"See you later cheesy lover" Tikki whispered as Plagg smiled.

The girls walked towards the locker rooms and got changed to her normal clothes.
"That was amazing Alya! You finally stepped in! I knew you would make it!" Tikki exclaimed very fast. She was just so excited that her friend had earned so much confidence!

"Yeah, I guess I did step in... But it was thanks to Marinette. If it wasn't for her confronting Chloe in the first place, I would've stayed on the bench!" Alya said turning towards Marinette. "You really did a nice job there! You putted that brat right were se belonged!"

"Thanks guys! We didn't present ourselves correctly. I'm Marinette Dupain-Cheng , pleasure to meet you!"Marinette said

"I'm Alya Césaire, and this is T-" Alya began.

"Tikki Zortea*"Marinette interrupted while smiling.
(Zortea means Lucky in Basque so I just came up with it😂)

"Wait, hold the phone! You guys know each other?!" Alya was astonished. Her best friend knew the girl that had helped them and had confronted the dice of the academy? "Why didn't you present us?!" Alya asked Tikki.

A smile formed on Tikki and Marinette's faces. They looked at each other and nodded. "Do you know my second last name, Alya?" Tikki asked while her friend nodded.

"It's Cheng." Alya said. After a few minutes , she gasped as her mouth shifted into an 'o'. "Y-you two are related!" Alya exclaimed.

"Why did it take you so long?" Tikki asked while Alya just shrugged as Marinette face palmed. The trio walked out of school chatting and laughing. It was like if they were meant to be friends.

"Dude, seriously?Cookie Monster? That's your best way of flirting with Tikki? Just tell her at once!" Nino said walking out of school with Plagg and Adrien.

Plagg made a reverence "Oh I'm sorry your majesty! I just wanted to leave the flirting to you, since you are the flirting master! Especially with Alya, you got her pleading to be your girlfriend!" Plagg said ironically.

"Haha. Very funny." Nino said.

"You both guys should listen to yourselves! You look like kids" Adrien said while the two boys looked at each other.

"He started!" They both said, pointing at each other.

"Besides, it's not like not having a girlfriend is the end of the world." Adrien stated while Plagg and Nino shared a look.

"Hah,  you say that because Sir Adrien Agreste has ALL the girls at his feet, right Nino?" Plagg asked

"I agree! I bet that if you asked the girl that passed by next to you to be your girlfriend, she would die there. Because Adrien Agreste asked her out." Nino crossed his arms as Plagg did the same.

"Okay okay okay. Let's do a bet." Adrien said as a slight smirk formed in his mouth.

"I'm listening." Plagg said

"If you two ask Tikki and Alya out, I'll ask the girl you guys want out. Deal?" Adrien asked.

"Deal!" Nino and Plagg said at the same time while the three of them fist bumped.

***

Adrien walked towards a black limousine , waved at his friends and went in the vehicle ,  which disappeared in a matter of seconds.

Plagg and Nino stood there, waving , until they were sure that the limousine was gone.

"We are so not going to win this bet..." Nino said

"Yup." Plagg stated popping the 'p'
