Third P.O.V
Daphne sorrowfully walked to her dorm "My plans never work," She mumbled gloomily. Her 'master' still didn't know that her plan backfired. So, the 'master' didn't hesitate to text Daphne.
Master: Did your plan work?! ANSWER ME!
A few minutes later, Daphne saw the text and responded.
Daphne: Sorry, but it didn't work :(
Master: WHAT?! THIS IS THE SECOND TIME YOU'VE FAILED ME! COME UP WITH A NEW PLAN, QUICK!
Daphne: But, I'm not Einstein! I can't come up with them that easily.
Master: Do you think I CARE ?!
Daphne: Sorry, Master. I'll come up with a plan right away.
Master: Good, and it better not fail!
Daphne struggled to find a plan. 'Why doesn't 'master' come up with the plans?!' Asked Daphne. She felt a tear roll down her cheek, but she promptly rubbed it away. Daphne grabbed her notebook and sat on her desk in her room. She began doodling some random words on the pages in some way to try to come up with a plan. 'I hate my life. I want friends, not enemies!' Thought the depressed Daphne.
Marinette's P.O.V
Once things were sorted out, Adrien and I walked to our dorm. "That was... Strange," Admitted Adrien. "Yeah, but... Who do you think it was that jumped out of my window?" I asked, intrigued. "I don't know... Maybe Lila?" Answered Adrien. "If it was her, then how did she get inside?" I questioned, even more puzzled than I already was. "I have no idea," Answered Adrien, as he unlocked the door for the dorm and walked inside.
"I'm going to take a shower, okay?" I said. "Sure, I'll wait," Said Adrien. I undressed from my clothes, and I got into the shower. It was very warm, and it was like rain, yet it wasn't as cold as rain. Even though I kept taking my mind off it, I couldn't stop thinking about Adrien's kiss with Daphne. I knew it meant nothing to him, but it still hurt me. The thought of it hurt, but the sight... The sight was heartbreaking. 'Stupid Marinette! Don't think about those things! Adrien loves me, not Daphne!' I thought. What if we weren't meant to be? OH MY GOD, WHY IS LIFE SO HARD AND COMPLICATED?! I cleansed myself more, trying to take my mind off of that kiss.
Once I finished my shower, I wrapped myself in a dark blue towel, one that matched my hair, and got out of the shower. The scent of chocolate chip cookies directly hit my nose. "Who's baking? And why does it smell so good ?!" I asked myself. I dressed in some nice clothes and went out to see where the smell came from.
Adrien's P.O.V
I baked some cookies while Marinette was showering, and they smelled amazing. They were Chocolate Chip Cookies. I also made a few red-velvet cookies. Once Marinette was out of the bathroom, I heard a small crash.
CRASH!
I ran to her room, finding her on the ground. "Are you okay?" I asked as I helped her up. "Yeah, I just tripped over one of my shoes and my back hit the wall. I didn't get hurt, though," She replied. "Ok," I said, examining her body for any injuries and scratches. I pecked her lips, then we walked to the kitchen. Marinette's room was kind of dark since she didn't turn on any lights, so when we were in the kitchen, I got a good look at her clothes. And dang, she looked beautiful. "Wow, Marinette. You look gorgeous!" I said as I stared at her. She blushed a light shade of pink, then replied, "Thanks," She looked around, and saw the cookies. "Ooh! Cookies! Did you make them?" She asked. I nodded as she put one cookie in her mouth, sinking into the tastiness of the cookie. "Mmm! These taste amazing!" She said after swallowing the cookie. I smiled.
I then got an idea. I asked Marinette, "Do you w-want to go on a d-date with m-me?" The reason I was stuttering was that I had never asked Marinette to go on a date with me. Like, ever. Even if we were already dating. "Sure, where are we going?" She asked. I felt butterflies in my stomach. She said YES! (A/N: Like, what? Is she gonna say no? She's already dating you, you nitwit.) "To outer space- I mean, inside the coffee! I mean, to the cafe!" I said... KILL. ME. NOW!
"Um, okay? We'll go to a cafe, but what cafe? There are like, 10 cafe's all around this university," Marinette asked. "Mama... I mean, mocha. Just... YOU CHOOSE THE CAFE... WHY AM I STUTTERING?!" I shouted. I was a stuttering mess. "Do you want to go to Starbucks?" She asked nonchalantly. "Y-yeah... Sure," I replied. "Why are you stuttering?" She asked. "I don't know. Probably cause we haven't gone on a date yet. Ever," I responded. "But we're already dating. You don't need to stutter- Nevermind," She said. She grabbed a cookie, and said, "Let's go." I followed along, my face still ruby red. "I-I'll drink. I mean, drive," I said. "Ok," She said as she opened the door.
It was now the weekend, so we could leave college to go to places. But, we have to get permission from Mr. Damocles.
Third P.O.V
As they were walking to Mr. Damocles's office, they heard someone talking on the phone. "But Master! I can't do that! That's too much!" Shouted someone. It sounded like a girl. (A/N: Adrien and Marinette don't know that Daphne worked for someone. So, they didn't know who the 'master' was.) "Who is that?" Asked Marinette. "I don't know, but it's coming from Daphne and Max's dorm," Adrien replied. Daphne was in her dorm, talking to her 'master'. No-one, not even Max, knew that Daphne worked for someone. Daphne's dorm was near Mr. Damocles's office, so they heard her shouting as they walked to his office. "Could Daphne be... working for someone?" Asked Marinette. "I don't know. Why do you think that?" Asked Adrien. "Because, when she shouted, she said the word master," She explained. "Oh... We'll figure that out later, now let's go on the date!" Adrien said as he pulled Marinette towards Mr. Damocles's office. "No! This is more important! I'm sorry, Adrien, but we have to find out who she's working for," Marinette said, feeling bad for Adrien. All he wanted was to make her happy. "But... The date..." He whined. 'Poor Adrien' She thought. "I'm sorry," She apologized once again. Adrien angrily and gloomily marched to their dorm. "Adrien! Come back!" Marinette shouted. She ran after him, but Adrien marched quicker towards their dorm, and he walked inside, slamming the door. Marinette was still outside.
A tear rolled down Adrien's cheek as he wistfully sat on the couch. Marinette decided to stop eavesdropping on Daphne and return to her dorm. As soon as she walked one step away, Lila began walking to Daphne's dorm. "Move, Dupain-Cheng! I need to have a word with this worthless loser," Lila said as she shoved Marinette away from Daphne's dorm.
As Marinette was walking, she heard Lila shout to Daphne, "WHAT KIND OF A SISTER ARE YOU?!" Marinette's eyes immediately widened. "What?! SISTER?!?!" Marinette shouted. Marinette sprinted to her dorm. She unlocked the door and sprinted inside. "ADRIEN! L-LILA IS-" "Woah, calm down. Breathe a bit, then tell me what's wrong," Adrien said. She nodded. Adrien helped her to the couch. "So, tell me what's wrong," He said.
"You probably won't believe me, or this information, but I heard Lila shouting at Daphne for being the worst SISTER!" Marinette informed. "What?!" Adrien said as he stood up with eyes wide open. "She's Lila's SISTER?!" He shouted. "Yeah. That is really abrupt..." Marinette expressed. Adrien raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you think we should tell everyone else?" Marinette shook her head, and replied, "No. They probably won't believe us. Especially since they thought I was lying when Daphne said I pushed her down the stairs." Adrien sat down next to her, and said, "I'm sure they've gotten over that. Plus, Alya exposed Daphne. So, I don't think anyone's mad at you." She nodded. "Come on, let's get them all to group up in the cafeteria, and then we'll tell them," She said. Adrien and Marinette split up.
Marinette got Rose, Juleka, Nino, Alya, Kim, and Alix. Adrien got Chloe, Sabrina, Max, Mylene, Ivan, and poor Nathaniel who has to live in Ms. Mendeliev's dorm (A/N: That's because the class's number isn't equal, so I had to pair him up with a teacher... Sad, I know... Also, in this story, Chloe is good, not bad) Once they were all grouped up, they all sat in the cafeteria. "We have something very important to tell you. Lila is Daphne's sister..." Marinette said. Everyone except Nino and Alya started muttering things like 'That's so not true!' and 'That doesn't even make sense!'. Max had his own answer for that. "There is a 79.46 percent chance that what Marinette said isn't true. There is also a 97.21 percent chance Marinette is lying. And finally, there is a 29.65 percent chance that Daphne is not Lila's sist-" "No-one cares! Plus, what Marinette said is true! She told me so herself!" Adrien defended.
"Oh, really? After what she did to Daphne on Daphne's first day here?! You still believe her?! Just break up with her already!" Mylene said. "I'm sorry, Marinette. I'm usually one to believe you, but I'm going to have to side with Mylene on this." Alix said, frowning. "But-" Marinette tried defending herself, but Alya chimed in, saying, "Guys! WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH YOU?! I exposed Daphne for the fake that she is! Remember!?" Everyone looked at Alya. Marinette mouthed a 'Thank you for defending me' to Alya. Alya smiled. "No! You didn't prove anything! Poor Daphne was criticized for something she didn't do, on her first day!" Mylene said. "What the? Oh my God, you guys! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY ANYMORE!" Alya shouted. "Of course, she doesn't know what to say. She ran out of lies to tell us!" Kim said. Marinette, Adrien, Nino, and Alya facepalmed. 'Someone kill me now...' The 4 teenagers thought.
They all got into a huge argument as to which Marinette avoided. Alya gave her an apologetic look and mouthed an 'I'm sorry' to her. Marinette sadly smiled and mumbled, "It's okay," "Guys, please. Let's not argue! I swear, I'm telling the truth!" Marinette shouted. "Keep your lies to yourself. Plus, whoever doesn't believe her, raise your hand!" Everyone except Chloe, Sabrina, Adrien, Nino, Alya, and of course, Marinette, didn't raise their hand. "Chloe, you believe her?!" Asked Kim. "Yeah... You are all pathetic losers. Marinette isn't a liar. This argument is ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!" Chloe defended. "Yeah! What Chloe said is true!" Alya said. "Yup." Nino agreed. "Adrien. Do you believe her? Asked Ivan. "Yeah. She's my girlfriend. Of course, I believe her. I'm not going to make the same mistake I did before, which is believing someone else over my girlfriend," He replied.
As they were all fighting, Daphne and Lila entered the cafeteria, the two girls were arguing. "I don't want to work for you anymore! You're the worst master EVER!" Shouted Daphne. "You're my sister! You HAVE to work for me! Sisters are always there for each other!" Shouted Lila. Daphne replied, "I don't care! You literally ordered me to KILL Marinette!" "WHAT?!" Marinette, Adrien, Nino, Alya, and the rest all exclaimed. "Yeah! She asked me to k-" "SHUT UP YOU NINCOMPOOP!!!!!" Interrupted Lila. "It was extreme... I couldn't do it! It was murder. And, I'm not a murderer. Murder people all you want, Lila, but don't involve me in your schemes. You're not my master, anymore. You're the worst sister ever!" Daphne said, crossing her arms over her chest. "See! I told you! Lila is a psychopath! And I also said that Daphne and Lila are SISTERS! Now, do you guys believe me?!" Marinette asked. They all nodded.
"I'm sorry guys. This whole time, I've been working for my sister, Lila... And, she wanted me to steal Adrien from Marinette for her. I am loyal to my sister, but not when she requests murder. I'm sorry," Daphne apologized, ashamed. She kept her gaze on the floor until Marinette ran to her and hugged her. Daphne was flabbergasted. "Thank you. For not killing me," Marinette thanked. "You're welcome, Marinette... C-can we b-be f-friends?" She asked, afraid Marinette will say no. "Yes... Only if you promise that you won't hurt any of us," Marinette agreed. "Of course," Daphne said with a gigantic smile on her face.
"So, what do you guys think?" Marinette asked. "Sure. I'd like to be her friend," Adrien, Nino, Alya, Kim, and Alix said. "Sure," Nathaniel, Rose, Max, and Sabrina agreed. "Yes! Yes! Yes!" Rose shouted. "Okay," Juleka mumbled. "Of course!" Mylene and Ivan said. "Chloe? What do you think?" Marinette asked. "She's definitely gonna say No, be-" Kim said with Chloe interrupting him, "Shut up, Kim... Yes, I want to be Daphne's friend," Everyone except Marinette was surprised. "What? I'm good now! Anyway, I want to tell you all that I'm sorry. Sorry for the days in high school when I used to treat you all like garbage. If it's okay with you all, can I be your friend?" Asked Chloe. Everyone nodded, even Daphne. Even though Daphne didn't know how Chloe treated them back in high school.
A few minutes passed, and they were all having fun talking and laughing. Lila was watching them from outside the cafeteria. She was very angry. She wished she could be stronger than she was now. 'I guess I have to do everything myself!' Lila thought.
"Time for a new plan..." She mumbled.
