(Y/N) (L/N)'s P.O.V.

"I'll let you in on one secret; I always add cream to the chocolate to make the ganache extra velvet. Then I let it sit in for one minute." Mr Dupain instructs us as I smile at the smell of chocolate wafting in the air.

I let out a sigh of satisfaction, "I love it when your dad comes to school and gives us pastry lessons..." I tell Marinette who stands beside me. She chuckles, "He does, too." She says making me giggle. Alya shushes us as she's filming the lesson.

I hear Chloe bickering something about getting her hands dirty but I don't pay attention to her as I'm deep into the smell of the pastry being made.

"It's all done in a flick of the wrist. But don't go too fast, or else you'll splash yourself!" The baker says which makes me nod involuntarily.

"And get my expensive clothes dirty?! Are you kidding me?" Chloe says which ticks me off as it's getting annoying at this point. "Shut it, Chloe. Unlike you, some of us are trying to learn something other than Chanel and Louis Vuitton," I grumble which leads to some snickering in the group.

"Look at this lovely emulsion!" He says as he shows us the batter which looks as delicious as ever. No wonder his bakery is the most popular in Paris...

"Now we have to chill it for half an hour. Marinette, can you put this in the school cafeteria, please?" He requests her making her nod. "Sure, Dad..." She takes the bowl and heads out.

"In the meantime, I'll show you how to whisk egg whites!" He says enthusiastically.

In the corner of my eyes, I can see Chloe making a call in an oh-so-sinister way which makes me raise an eyebrow.

"(Y/N)." I hear my name being called by Mr Dupain.

"Yes, Mr Dupain?" I ask as I revert my attention back to him, "Could you do the honours of cracking the eggs for me?" He asks kindly which makes me nod. "Of course!" I happily agree and walk up to the table...hoping dearly that I don't mess up...

I crack the eggs delicately and Mr Dupain separates them. But as we're doing that the fire alarm goes off which makes most of the class panic.

"Come on, single file everyone!" Miss Bustier escorts all of us out the door to the courtyard. I see Marinette outside with the bowl in hand.

Her dad joins her, "I hope it's just a fire drill..." He says, probably a little worried that his class got interrupted.

We all gather at the courtyard where the principal, Mr Damocles, looking very upset stands along with a firefighter.

"So, some smart aleck had the bright idea of calling the fire department!" He says which makes me immediately look at Chloe who looks unfazed by the whole situation with that plastic smirk of hers.

"Someone thought it would be funny to waste the time of the fire captain here!" He says clearly angry. The fire captain looks at him, "Yes, in fact, if it's okay, I'll be going-"

"Hold on, I want the guilty party to apologize to you." Mr Damocles interrupts which cause all of us to look around.

I look at Marinette and Alya, "I bet it was Chloe. I saw her talking on the phone before the alarm went off..." I say to them. Alya nods, "But just talking on the phone is not enough proof..." She says making me look ahead at Mr Damocles again.

"Mr Damocles sir!" I hear Chloe say from behind us.

"Yes, Miss Bourgeois?"

"I saw a student walking out of the class before the alarm went off! I bet it was her!" She says which makes me growl. I see where this is going.

"Really?! Who is it?" The principal asks the snob.

"Hmm...I wonder if she'll come clean? What do you say, Marinette Dupain-Cheng?" She accuses making all of the people around us, including Marinette, gasp.

"What do you have to say to the fire captain, Miss Dupain-Cheng?" Mr Damocles asks her making me raise my hand in defence.

"Wait! Mr Damocles! It couldn't have been her!" I raise my hand in protest, "Because I know for a fact that she didn't have her phone with her when she went out because it was in her bag!" I defend her which makes her smile.

"Yes, sir! How could she possibly want to interrupt her own father's baking class?" Adrien, who was standing beside me the whole time, says and then looks at me with a wink. I blush.

Alya nods in protest, "She would never do something like that!" She says which makes Mr Damocles nod.

"Very well, but we still haven't found the culprit yet!" He says.

I purse my lips, "I've got to pin her!" I begin to raise my hand but Adrien holds my shoulder which startles me.

"Don't. We don't know if it was really her..." He whispers to me which makes me sigh in frustration.

"Yeah," Alya turns to glare at Chloe, "Let's not stoop down to her level..." She says and I nod.

"Fine! Since no one is owning up, the whole school will be punished!" Mr Damocles says which makes me gasp.

"What?!" Chloe looks offended, "I don't think MY FATHER would be so kind in hearing that I was punished without any proof!" She threatens the principal who retorts, "Let's not disturb the busy mayor! I'll rephrase that. The whole school, except Chloe Bourgeois, will be punished!"

"What?!" I scoff, feeling unjust. "This is so not fair!" I groan in protest.

"Take your mops and brooms and start cleaning!" Mr Damocles says making me glare at the biased man.

Grabbing a broom from the janitor, I start cleaning the area near the stairs.

As I finish off cleaning that area, it's just then that I see Rose rush off with tears in her eyes.

I look towards the direction where she came from. Near the bench, I see Chloe. I squint my eyes at her in disgust and get back to my work.

"Adrikins~" I hear her say making my look back at her again. I frown when I see her wrap her hands around his neck.

"It's okay, (Y/N)..." Marinette places a hand on my shoulder, "Come to my house this afternoon! We'll have a blast!" She says making me give her a warm smile.

"Sure!" I say and giggle with her.

---

I pose endearingly to the camera, wearing a hat made by Marinette.

"Get it, girl!" Alya cheers which earn a chuckle from the others.

Marinette invited Rose, Juleka, Mylene, Alya and I to check out the new pieces that she made.

"These are awesome, Marinette!" I say and take off the purple embroidered hat.

"Thanks! I've also got some necklaces which you can customize on your own!" She says and puts it on Rose whose eyes sparkle at the pink.

"It's so cute!" The small girl squeals making me smile.

Alya takes a photo of Rose with the necklace, "This would make a great homepage image for your future blog!" She says making Marinette giggle sheepishly.

Alya's phone beeps. She pulls it out and with a gasp.

"A message from Chloe?" She says which makes me look at her.

"What is it? Another humiliating photo of someone?" I guess but she shakes her head.

"No...it's an invite for a party today..." She says taking me aback. Then my phone beeps too. I check, "What the-I got one too!" I say in disbelief.

"Me too!" Juleka, Rose and Mylene say.

"Aww, that's so nice of Chloe..." Rose says which makes me confused.

"Whoa, 'nice' and 'Chloe' in a sentence? I thought you said Chloe was mean and bossy, and snobby..." I say as I go through the invite again.

Marinette looks at it in suspicion. "That's never going to happen! Chloe is not 'nice'..." She says in an unbelieving tone.

"Maybe her phone was hacked?" Mylene suggests to which I shrug. "Probably not..."

Marinette pulls out her phone, "I didn't get one..." She says as she checks her messages.

"Then you know it must be from her!" Alya says which makes her puff her cheeks.

Just then her phone beeps, "Eww! It's the invite!" She says with a scrunched nose.

"So you guys are going to go?" She asks us in shock.

"Why not? She must have thought about apologizing for this morning!" Mylene says which makes me consider, "Yeah, I think it'll be nice to give her a chance..." I smile at the thought of a 'not so very bossy' Chloe.

Marinette looks at me betrayed, "(Y/N)?! You too?" She pouts making me shrug.

"You should come too!" Rose says to her who shakes her head.

"Not in a million years!"

---

Eventually, we convince her to come.

"This is a really bad idea!" Marinette complains as we enter Le Grand Paris.

"Whoa..." I awe at the decor of the place. I look up to see Chloe glaring at our group which makes me wince.

"Yep, this party thing does feel weird..." I whisper to Marinette who nods at me in agreement.

Then, I feel a presence behind me.

"Well, I've known Chloe for a long time. She can be pretty nice sometimes..." Adrien's voice makes me whip my head towards him.

"Again! People just keep putting 'Chloe' and 'nice' into the same sentence!" I say which earns a playful glare from him.

"I'm serious!" He says but I shake my head, "Not buying it..." I shrug at him.

"ADRIKINS~! You made it!" I see Chloe give him a hug from behind. I pout slightly at this.

"What do you think about this party? Pretty nice of me, right~?" She greets him with a kiss on his cheeks.

Rose, Kim, and Max do the same thing to Chloe.

She then turns to me and has a hesitant look on her face. I give her an assuring smile and walk in front of her, "G-Great party, Chloe..." I say out of slight nervousness before leaning in to kiss her cheeks, which I learnt, after coming to Paris, was a customary greeting in France.

She greets back and then turns away, not aware that Marinette is right in front of her. She grimaces at the sight of her.

I can see the tension between them as Chloe hesitates to kiss her cheeks, with Marinette being equally against the idea.

Amused by the situation, Alya and I snicker.

They give in as quickly as they pull away from each other's cheeks.

"Yay!" Alya and I cheer as Marinette gags. I laugh, "You should see the look on your face!" I tease as I nudge her on the shoulder.

"You guys are no fun..." She pouts as we walk to the food table.

The party begins as Nino starts deejaying.

I grab an hors d'oeuvre from the tray.

I look at Marinette who keeps on glaring at Chloe from afar, "This BFF act she's doing is just a charade! She's just doing this to please Adrien!" She says making me sigh.

"Marinette..." I whine, "You did not have to put that idea in my head!" I say as I frown at her.

"Just look at her!" She says as she points to the bar where Chloe is, playing all nice for Adrien.

I give Marinette a sceptical look.

"Really, Marinette?" I glare at her who just shrugs.

Then, the music changes. The quirky tune turns into a very soothing, romantic song that make me raise an eyebrow.

"What's Nino up to?" I chuckle as I watch people getting into pairs and slow-dance.

"All Chloe-problems aside!" Alya says which makes me look at her. She turns to me, "Why doesn't (Y/N) go ahead and ask Adrien for a dance~?" She says and Marinette's eyes sparkle.

I shake my head furiously, "Very funny, the guy is supposed to ask the girl. Not the other way around!" I say in a way to dispose of the idea out of their head.

"So? You can just walk up to him! He'll ask you since he's all alone!" He points to Adrien watching others dance, "No big deal!"

I blush deeply, "And why would I do that?"

"Because...~" Marinette grabs my shoulder. "...you have a better chance with him than Chloe~," She says making me yelp as she pushes me towards him.

I stumble towards him, bumping him in the process. He turns to look at me.

"H-Hey, Adrien..." I greet as I stand beside him and watch the others dance.

"Hey, (Y/N)..." He smiles at me, "Care for a dance?" He asks which makes my eyes widen even though I've been anticipating it.

"I-I'm not really a dancer..." I stutter as he chuckles. He grabs my hand and pulls me onto the dance floor completely startling me.

Time slows down for me as I watch him hold my hand and look back at me with a charming glint in his eyes.

He pulls me into his arms, "It's okay. Just follow my lead..." He whispers as he places my one hand on his shoulder.

He grabs my other hand before placing his hand on my waist.

'OH. MY. GOD.'

He moves gracefully as he pulls me along. I automatically follow his lead.

He grins, "You're a natural..." He says making my face burn in fascination. I chuckle awkwardly, "You're not too bad yourself, Mr Adrien Agreste..." I mildly tease as I get a hold of myself.

He laughs he twirls me around. I gasp a little amazed, "Alright, I'm kidding. You're a professional." I give in.

Adrien then gestures to Chloe who's dancing with Kim. "See, Chloe's on her best behaviour today..." He states and looks at her before looking at me. I give him a convinced look, "Okay, you win."

"But I am really surprised at her sudden kindness..." I say before looking at him suspiciously, "Did you have to do something with it?" I ask.

"I might..." He winks at me making me laugh.

We both stare into each other's eyes, enjoying a slow dance.

Just then, Alya and Nino come dancing by. Alya does a fake dance and grabs me, placing both of my hands on his shoulders as Nino places Adrien's hands on my waist.

Alya winks at me and mouths 'You got this, girl!' before pushing me closer to Adrien.

Both of our eyes widen at their actions.

I look at Adrien, about to apologize but he looks at me and shrugs.

He then pulls me more close, so close that our chests collide and his cheek touches mine. My mouth gapes at his actions, scared for what might happen next.

I look at Marinette standing at little further away. She gives me a thumbs up.

I take a leap. I snuggle into his shoulder, hugging him as we move slowly according to the music, mostly because I want to hide my blushing face from his view.

'This feels nice...'

I feel my heart beating rapidly, my mind unable to believe that I'm dancing WITH ADRIEN.

I smile warmly and close my eyes, hoping this moment lasts forever. But unfortunately, it doesn't.

We're interrupted by the most annoying sound that I feel I've ever heard.

Chloe...

"Move over, Jean-whatever-your-name-is!" She says which makes me look up to the commotion. That's when I realise that Chloe's butler, Jean, stands between Chloe and us.

"I don't think that's what Mr Cuddly would want, Chloe~," The butler says and pulls out a yellow teddy bear which makes everyone look at them. Chloe looks at the bear and tries to hide it from everyone's view.

Kim looks at her, "Is that your teddy bear, Chloe?" He says and laughs which makes everyone laugh at her. I notice Adrien's expression grow worried.

Chloe storms off the dance floor with the butler.

"I hope she's okay..." Adrien mutter which makes me smile at him, "I'm sure she is..." I say and he nods before we go back to our dance.

The music then changes in a pop song making us dance cheerily.

That's when I feel it. A familiar pain strikes through my heart which makes me fall back.

"Are you okay, (Y/N)?" Adrien looks at me in concern. I grumble internally, 'Why now...?'

"I-I think I had too much orange juice. I have to go..." I mutter but before he can respond, we hear Chloe scream and rush past us which Sabrina following her.

"Come on, Chloe, let me brush your hair..." Sabrina says as she chases the said-person.

I watch at Chloe hides behind Kim who threatens Sabrina.

That's when I see it. My gaze goes down to see a small dark teddy bear that jumps off of Sabrina and attaches itself to Kim's leg, making his eyes turn green.

I turn to Adrien and notice him looking at it as well.

"I..." I mutter to which he nods.

He rubs the back of his neck, "Y-Yeah, I have something to do as well..." He says which makes me sigh.

"Well..." I awkwardly wave, "BYE!" I say and rush to Marinette before grabbing her out of the room.

"Akuma alert!" I whisper-yell as we enter the bathroom.

"Too bad you had to stop dancing with Adrien," Marinette teases, "Maybe it could've ended with a kiss..."

I look at her with wide eyes.

"Let's not dwell on the past!" I say to her, flustered.

"Seven, it's springtime to bloom!" I say and transform followed by Marinette who transforms into Ladybug.

We enter into the party room where the commotions started. We see Kim harshly dancing with Chloe. He throws her up into the air.

I use my whip to grab her and she land into a nearby ball pool. "It's about time you came!" She says to us angrily.

Cat Noir uses his baton to trip the controlled Kim to fall into the pool which makes the evil teddy bear fly across the room.

As we try to catch it, the small villain moves to Max, to Alya and then to Ivan before vanishing.

"Where did it go?" I grumble as I back away.

It is then that Cat noir grabs my hand, "What is it now, Cat Noir?!" I ask and look at him before noticing his brightened-green, lifeless eyes.

I shake my hand away from him in disgust.

"Pretty choker~," He says and tries to grab hold of it. I dodge his lunges, "H-Hey! Cat Noir, snap out of it!" I say.

Ladybug tries to grab him away from me and he lunges for his earrings as well.

He growls at us. He looks at his hand, "Cataclysm!" He activates his powers and then takes me off guard as he tries to attack me with it.

Chloe jumps into action, "Paws off, kitty!" She says and pulls him by his tail before pulling him away from me. He lands on a sofa which becomes the victim of his Cataclysm.

Ladybug and I look at her, surprised by her move. "Wow, thanks!" I say to her with an impressed smile.

Chloe, too, feeling disbelief that she did that, looks surprised at herself, "Hey, I was just nice then! Did you see?!" She says which makes me chuckle.

Ladybug then activates her Lucky Charm and a fork lands on her hand.

The controlled Cat Noir chases us up to the roof. we take our hiding spots as Ladybug signals me to go to the nearby umbrella stand.

I do so and wait in position. Just then Ladybug attacks Cat Noir and they duel. I see Chloe enter the roof, "Chloe?! What are you-"

I notice that Ladybug drops the fork which makes me sigh.

"Over here, Chloe!" I say as I gesture her to take my position near the umbrella stand. She does so.

I grab the fork and manages to sever it to the bear as he's made out of cloth. I pull out some string from the bear and tie it with the fork before tossing it to Ladybug who throws it to tie the umbrella stand.

"Would you do the honours, Chloe?" Ladybug asks her with a smirk as we distract Cat Noir.

"The pleasure's all mine!" She says and starts spinning the umbrella which unravels the bear until he has only his head and falls to the ground. This breaks Cat Noir out of his trance.

"Ladybug? Prim? What are you doing?" He asks which makes me smirk.

"Oh, nothing. Just saving your skin with the help of our new sidekick~" I say and point to Chloe behind him. She flaunts herself and smiles at us.

"Give me your miraculous! You haven't still defeated me yet!" We hear a miniature voice. I look down to see a tiny version of Jean kicking Cat Noir's feet.

I chuckle, "Watch your step, Cat Noir," I say to him.

Ladybug walks over to the severed teddy bear head and breaks the string. The Akuma flies out and she de-evilises it.

"Miraculous Ladybug/Primrose!" We chant as she throws the fork into the air and I shoot an arrow to the sky.

Everything goes back to normal.

The severed teddy bear goes back to Mr Cuddly which makes me pick it up and hand it to Chloe. "Thank you, Chloe, for helping us out back there." I say, "It was...pretty nice of you,"

She smirks at me, "I know right! I'm probably better than you since I don't need a costume!" She boasts which makes me shake my head.

"Right..." Ladybug glares at her.

I then look at Chloe's butler.

"No more injustice in the world and here's a token from a rose~," I chant and rose petals form around me. A butler pin forms on my hands.

"Uh..." I look at it dumbfounded before noticing and empty space on Jean's chest, probably where his previous butler pin was.

"Oh! Jean, would you step forward?" I ask of him which makes him stand in front of me.

"I'm guessing Miss Chloe Bourgeois fired you?" I whisper to him and he nods in embarrassment, "Just play along, okay?"

"Butler Jean of Le Grand Paris," I look up at him.

"Yes, Miss Primvère Rosé?"

"I hereby declare that you are the sole protector and, yes, promoted butler of Chloe Bourgeois, daughter of the Mayor, Andre Bourgeois. I look to you to take care and serve her are your Mistress as decreed by the...uh...Order of the Primrose Miraculous!" I say in a very professional tone as I put the badge on his chest.

"It would be my honour to serve your one and devoted fan, Primvère Rosé." He bows making me smirk before turning to Chloe.

"Do you accept Jean as your butler, Chloe Bourgeois?" I ask her which makes her nod.

"If it comes from the Order of the Primrose Miraculous, I do!" She says in an enthusiastic voice which makes me smile.

Just then, Cat Noir and Ladybug's miraculous beep.

"Oh, that was a wonderful ceremony but we should go..." Ladybug says making me nod, "Goodbye, Chloe, Jean..." I say and we escape the scene before entering the bathroom, next to the party room, through the window. We de-transform and enter the room.

"That was a nice thing you did for Jean, (Y/N)..." Marinette says which makes me chuckle.

"Oh, it was the least I could do for him. After all, he helped in making Chloe behave today!" I say as we watch Chloe and Jean enter the room.

---

"Great job, kids!" Marinette's dad says as he picks up macarons from each of the plates.

"It was a great idea to invite Marinette's dad to the party, Chloe..." I eavesdrop Adrien say to Chloe making me smile.

"Yeah! I thought that everyone would forgive me for calling the fire department if I did!" She says and to be honest, I'm not even surprised.

"I'm so nice, right?! Even Ladybug and Primvère Rosé said so! Right, Jean-Luc?!" She asks the butler who nods.

"I'm proud of you, Chloé. I think you've proven that you're capable of making an effort to be nicer to everyone." He says which makes me shake my head.

"Aww, Adrikins! So we'll always be best friends, forever? Pinky swear?" She pulls out her pinky and Adrien nods, "Pinky swear!"

Chloe then proceeds to look at everyone's macarons.

"Eww! I could've done a pretty good job. Yours is not even half as good as my cooking!" She comments which makes me sigh.

"She'll never change..." Adrien says as he stands beside me.

Marinette gives me a sly look before walking away from us, leaving me alone with Adrien. I pout at her as she does.

"May I?" Adrien says as he looks at the macarons I made.

I nod, "Go ahead!" I say as I put the tray in front of him.

He grabs one and takes a bite. I gulp in a nervous fit, "How did I do...?" I ask.

"Wow!" He smiles, "Your baking is just as good as your dancing!" He says taking me by surprise.

"Thanks...?" I say, not really sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

"I would've added a little less salt though."

"Okay, I saw that coming..."

---

End Chapter.

YOU WANT IT, YOU GOT IT, YOU WANT IT, YOU GOT IT-

Just a little Adrien x (Y/N) moment...(>~<)
