By the end of the school, Marinette was smiling with her feelings rejuvenated once again, she saw the class disperse into small bubbles of groups.
It wasn't hard for her to spot the ruffled half dyed blue hair in the crowd,
"Hey Marinette, you okay?"

She gave a firm bob of her head smiling widely and sitting next to him on the bench, he was holding his guitar again and it made her wonder if her song was almost finished.
He gently started strumming his fingers against the strings making most of the girls from Marinette's class stare while swaying gently, Rose sighed softly as he played.

"He truly is wonderful at making music."

Luka played with his eyes closed, she started noticing little details in how he played like how his leg jumped up and down and how his hair swayed side to side.
"Marinette!"

Her body hitched as she glanced up at Alya who was grinning, she pulled her up by her arm and showed her a picture on her phone of a bright green dress with mustard stripes.

"What do ya think!? I think Nino will love it!"

Marinette tried not to express her distaste, sure the green would be nice with her eyes but the mustard yellow was horrible.
"Alya it's a pretty green dress but...it isn't really you, you know?"

Her friend stared blankly going between her phone and Marinette,
"What...do you mean?"
"The yellow doesn't go with you at all, it's not even a nice yellow...it's murky, how about I pick out your dress something that'll really wow Nino and make you stand out?"

Alya's eyes practically sparkled at the idea.

"You mean it!? That would be amazing!"
Before Marinette could even open her mouth Alya had rushed off, she giggled at her friend and turned back to Luka who was right behind her making her yelp.

"Marinette do you know who's taking you to the dance?"

Her eyes danced towards Adrien before landing back on Luka,
"Not yet, my options are still open."
"Well, if you'd like...if nobody else asks would you like to go with me?"

She gave a short nod as the bell rang for the final class of the day, literature.

Luka waved at Marinette as he went in a separate classroom, she took a deep breath before walking in her own. She wasn't a fan of literature at all because she could never understand any of the structures and she confused verbs, adverbs and adjectives all the time.
She felt lucky to sit next to Alya during this class especially since Alya was always blogging about Ladybug, so she peeked over her shoulder to start taking notes.

As they were taking notes and started their lesson there were a few whispers between everyone most of which were about the dance coming up to celebrate the heroes of Paris and their union, it was the anniversary of the first time they appeared.
But just as Marinette started to understand the work she heard a gasp from Chloé who captured everyone's attention, she waved her phone about while her blonde hair bobbed.

"Everyone this is important! Evangeline Beaulieu found her boyfriend with another girl!"

Marinette glanced at Alya unsure of the name and when Chloé only had everyone stare at her besides Sabrina she sighed in frustration.

"Don't any of you use social media? She's a model and Instaflare star!"
Adrien nodded, "I know her, she modelled for my father once."

Chloé showed a picture of a girl, maybe a year or two older than all of them with outstanding pink hair and a beautiful necklace matching her beautiful ocean eyes.

For a little while, the class continued when a sudden newscast appeared on the TV,

"Hello Parisians, a new threat has appeared at the Eiffel Tower calling herself "Heartacher". Now all eyes look for our heroes Ladybug and Chat Noir."

Before the newscast even finished the teacher dismissed them and Marinette ran into the bathroom opening her little bag letting Tikki fly out,
"What do you think Tikki? Can Chat and I handle this alone?"

Tikki smiled reassuringly.
"Of course Marinette! You are spectacular!"
She could feel the doubt within her before finally saying the words Tikki needed to hear,

"Tikki! Spots on!"

As she swung out the window towards the threat a voice called for her, Chat Noir was catching up beside her.
"Well Milady, how do we catch this mouse?"
"Let's see if it's not a rat first."
When they saw the akumatised victim it was a female with catlike amber eyes, she had broken hearts on her cheeks and around her clothing, even her bright pink hair looked somewhat of half a broken heart.

Her necklace looked like her eyes and Ladybug watched when she pointed her necklace at a romantic couple, it shined over them for a second before two bright pink hearts floated into the sky and broke. The two citizens instantly walked away from each other with painful eyes while Heartacher laughed.

Ladybug and Chat glanced at each other with a slight nod before calling out to the villain,

"Heartacher!"
