The vacation is over.

It wasn't the way you thought it'd be, but it was the best vacation you've ever had. Not every girl can go through portals with her boyfriend to other countries. You two visited so many places, you couldn't even count. It passed so fast and was so funny, you enjoyed every second wishing to live a lot more peaceful and happy days like this.

Today is the first class and you're on your way by car. You were praying that you'd fall into the same class as Marinette and Alya. The three of you talked on vacation but only by message. You wanted to know in detail about their vacation. Especially if Marinette started something between her and Luka.

You got out of the car and entered the hall away of the school looking at the number of the room you were going to stay this year, on the paper in your hand.

When you arrived you opened a big smile when you saw Alya and Marinette talking, they waved when they saw you. You went to them while greeting your colleagues, it was practically the same people from the past year. You weren't seeing Chloe, Sabine and Adrien here. You wondered if they were in this class.

"Look who's coming! The lucky girl. Come here (Y / n), answer me some questions for my blog!" Alya tugged you up enthusiastically.

"Shhhh don't shout for everyone to hear." You whispered looking around, luckily everyone wanted to catch up. "I promise to catch up on later... Now..." You gave Marinette a brilliant look.

"How are things between you and Luka? Did anything happen? Are you dating?" You asked excitedly as she blushed looking away.

"We are hang out, but we are taking it easy, I still get a little confused around Adrien." Marinette whispered sheepishly, you sat across from them while thinking about.

"Good. It's a begun. That 'taking it easy' means that you aren't kissing each other?" You asked with a chuckle amused by her flushed expression.

"Y-yeah that's it..." She replied looking away.

"You know that kissing is not the big step in a relationship, right?" You said smirking, Marinette makes a face and blushes even more.

"Ew! You're insane. Did you hear that Alya?" Marinette turned to Alya who laughed nervously.

"Yeah.... Look at around, I think Chloe is not in our class this year." Alya change the subject. The next moment you hear Chloe's voice along with screams of excited girls, you guessed Adrien was with her and didn't even bother to look back to see the mess, happiness leaves you as fast as it came.

"Make room for my friends, you drooling girls! Do something Sabine!" Chloe ordered.

"Who's that guy next to Adrien? They look like twins." Alya and Marinette jaw drop looking at the door. You raise an eyebrow and turn around following their gaze.

Girls hysterically surrounded the two blonds who called attention, one for his friendly smile and the other for his intense and cold look.

"Oh shit! What the hell is this daddy's boy doing here?" You said puzzled, your mind returned to several flashbacks from the past as you looked into his eyes.

"Do you know him?" Alya's voice brought you back to the present. You nodded and looked away when his eyes met yours and a sneer lit up his face.

"I do. I did elementary school in London and we were in the same class. He's mean, arrogant and unbearable! It makes perfect match with Chloe." You explained and sighed, knowing it wouldn't be a quiet year. They frowned.

"What a shame... He's look a lot like Adrien." Marinette said.

"They must be cousins." Alya deduced. You turn your gaze indifferently on them, while Sabine does her best to keep the girls away, miraculously she succeeds and closes the door.

OBS: The episode Felix did not happen in this fictional universe and Master Fu is still the guardian of the Miraculous, sorry for not making that clear before.😅

"Adrien! You never told us that you had a twin." Rose said puzzled as the others agreed around the blondes.

"No, He's my cousin Felix from London, he's going to live in Paris for a while." Adrien explained, the girls got excited and surrounded Felix questioning him about.

You laughed as you watched him try to keep his distance by making a forced smile, you knew that being friendly wasn't his forte.

"Don't bother him. He's not gonna talk to low class girls like you." Chloe scoffs as Adrien gives her a warning look. Felix seems more bothered with Chloe than with the girls around him.

"Don't speak for me little brat." Felix snorted making Chloe's eyes widen indignantly as he dismisses the girls and walks over to you.

"Here we go..." You told yourself crossing your arms when he was standing beside your desk.

"I knew you were in Paris, but I didn't expect to be in your class. Seems like it won't be boring here after all." He said casually with a sly smile.

"I don't think so, I'll have things better to do than entertain you." You said coldly. Marinette and Alya curiously watched the discussion from the back seat.

"You know I'm good at getting what I want... I see you're still the same. But it looks like puberty has done some miracle for you." He said making you clenched your fists to control the urge to hit his preppy face.

"Unfortunately you remain the same arrogant, arsehole, cocky, pushy. Have I said arsehole?" You scoffed. An indifferent smile curving his lips.

"Touché. That didn't stop you from talking to me." He winked at you, you rolled your eyes and looked away and almost jumped when you see Adrien sitting next to you with a very forced smile.

"Oh, hi Adrien, I hadn't seen you arrive." You smile with satisfaction that he took this seat and not Felix.

Behind you, Alya watches excitedly as if she's watching a soap opera and Marinette puts her fingers together thinking about something to say to Adrien next to you.

"Hey... I see you two have already met.. Good. How was that?" He looks between you and Felix with a radiant smile. Little did you know it was forced.

"I studied in London in elementary school and in addition to having to see his face every day there, I also had to see later in the karate classes that my parents forced me to take." You explained bored. Adrien blinked in surprise.

"Oh come on, you adored me." Felix defended himself. "No, you adored me." You replied squinting.

"I didn't understand, are you friends or not?" Alya asked confuse.

"Who knows?" He smirks smugly before turning his way and taking an empty seat at the back of the classroom.

Alya nudged you to answer.

"I'd say we were rivals, something like that." You whisper to her, not wanting keep this subject.

"H-how was the vacation in J-japan Adrien? Did you have fun?" Marinette stammered as she asked to blonde.

"It was very busy but I had fun." He replied as his heart warmed with memories. He cannot prevent his eyes from becoming sad as soon as his gaze has passed over you next to him.

Pov's Adrien:

I watched the girls talk with a small smile and quickly scanned (Y / n) beside me. She was so cute while smiling as
playing with the locket on her fingers.

"Earth to Adrien, are you there?" Alya said with a giggle calling my attention, I laugh ashamed of their looks on me.

"Excuse me, what were you talking about?" I asked.

"Did you notice that on vacation nobody was akumatized? I'm going to put this curiosity on my blog." She said taking her cell phone out of her pocket.

"Even Hawk Moth needs to take a vacation, it seems. It could be just like this all year." (Y / n) said thoughtfully while supporting her cheek in her hand.

I can't take my eyes off her, I'm tired of having to hide who I am and pretend to be just another friend, my heart always quickens when I see her and I want to say something to make her laugh but it'd be weird for everyone 'cause as Adrien I can't say what I think, ahh... if I could I'd just be Chat Noir, at least I'm free.

To make matters worse I'm very curious to know what she and Felix were in the past. She'll never tell me, but maybe I can ask him later.

She suddenly looks at me and catches me looking, I quickly look away flushed. God, I'm stupid.

"Is there anything on my face?" She asks looking at her reflection on the phone. I shake my head.

"N-no, you look p-perfect. I mean you look beautiful t-today, not that you aren't on the other d-days, my opinion as a friend." I could bury my head in some hole now, what did i just say? To my surprise she laughed and patted my shoulder.

"Thanks but you're very tense Adrien! This is what happens when working on vacation. Listen, let's be in the same group when we've a group activity. So we have an excuse to study and can have fun at my house, I'll invite the whole class... Hehehe. Ah you can invite your girlfriend Kagami too." She planned with a malicious smile. I blinked my eyes puzzled not knowing what to say, I think I'm blushing.

"Great idea bad girl, but you better not invite Chloe." Alya said, amused.

"T-thank you, sounds great, but Kagami isn't my girlfriend." They opened their eyes wide with 'em fixed on me.

"What? But I swore that you two are dating..." Alya said.

"You told me once that you liked a girl, if it's not Kagami, who is?" (Y / n) arched a eyebrow. My mind worked to create the best possible lie in a short time.

"You don't know her, I didn't have a chance to declare myself, I don't even know if she likes me like that." I said doing my best not to stutter

"Oh don't say it! You're Adrien Agreste, what girl would dismiss you?" Marinette said.

"Unfortunately my charms don't work with all girls." I joked, laughing without looking forced.

"I already liked her, when are we going to meet her?" (Y / n) asked excitedly. I got confused with the words but luckily the teacher arrived making the class be silent.

I widened my eyes as I saw Lila arriving along the teacher, I wasn't the only one who had this reaction.

"Class, today is the first day of school. We will welcome your new colleague Felix. And your friend Lila has something to say to you." The teacher took her seat giving Lila space.

"Hi guys, I know you're upset about the things I said in that video... But I was being controlled by someone else and I had no idea what I was talking about. I was so sad that you all didn't want to talk to me anymore, I couldn't take it." She seemed so genuine and some seemed to believe her, from the corners of my eyes I could see (Y / n) get tense and lower her head in shame.

"Don't worry, you were also being controlled." I whispered next to (Y / n) 's ear so that only she could hear.

I felt my heart race when she looked at me and smiled sheepishly. "Thank you... You're really a good friend." She whispered looking away now with a genuine smile.

She never smiled like that to me, as Adrien. I was touched it's not the same feeling when I am Chat Noir. Without the mask it's more exciting...

"Thank you Miss Rossi, you can take a seat so we start the lesson." The teacher said. Lila nodded and went up the stairs, on the way she whispered something in the ear of (Y / n), I couldn't hear but she rolled her eyes when Lila was gone.

Before I could ask, Alya whispered between us. "What did she say to you?"

"Don't be surprised if something illegal is found in my backpack and I get kicked out of school." She said indiferente with a shrug. I shared the same expression of terror as Alya and Marinette.

I looked at Lila next to Felix. She was staring (Y / n) with eyes shining with hate. As soon as she met my gaze, she smiled and waved a friendly smile.

I smiled quickly and looked away. Lila can be quite scary, I got to talk to her. No way am I gonna let her incriminate (Y / n)...

Pov's Adrien/off:

"Say goodbye to your friends... I will take from you everything and everyone you love." Lila whispered in your ear before keep on her way.

Lila and Felix in my class to drive me crazy.... Best school year ever!

In fact, you weren't so discouraged that Felix was in your class. He really was unbearable but he was the only friend you had in London, you had given up making friends because of the constant moves that your parents did, you had closed yourself off. Not wanting friends was something that you and Felix had in common, your friendship wasn't that cliché of being nice to each other, it was more of a rivalry of who was better at anything. Especially in karate, you both were very competitive with that.

♡♡✿♡♡✿♡♡

At the end of the class nothing important had happened, you were surprised that Lila didn't come to bother you or hide something in your backpack.

It gave you something to think about while you kept your books in your locker.

"Are you going to do something after school?" You heard Felix's voice behind you. You closed the locker by rolling your eyes and turning to him.

"Yes, I have to rest to have to put up with you tomorrow." You smiled innocently before going around him and walking towards the exit but he followed until he reached your side.

"Come on, aren't you in the mood to train with me? Like old times." He insisted.

"I don't fight anymore, why don't you train with your cousin?" You suggested. Out of the corner of your eye you can see him sigh and lower his head.

"Sure, my busy cousin who does everything his father says, he'll definitely have time to spend with me." He said ironically, you forgot how lonely Felix is, ​​unlike Adrien who's surrounded by friends.

"Why don't you fight anymore?" He asked before you could say anything.

"I don't know. I guess I was bored that I couldn't kick your ass every day after I moved." You two laughed.

"Is that your way of saying you missed me? You can try do it if you go back to training." He winked at you. You shook your head in response.

"It's very tempting, but you're going to need a lot more to convince me." You said.

"Oh, I know. You don't want to train 'cause your super hero boyfriend can save you if you get in trouble." You opened your eyes wide and looked at him incredulously.

"What?! Why the hell do you think I have a super hero boyfriend?" You stopped walking while he was amused by your terrified face.

"I saw that viral video of you kissing that super hero. Wow what a kiss... I didn't know you were that kind of girl." He said with false surprise, you blushed with anger and shame.

"That meant nothing! And I don't need anyone to protect me, I can handle it for myself." You explained. He nodded.

"Yeah you can..." He said pretending to believe and continued walking down the hall. You followed him and grabbed his arm.

"Give me your cell phone, I'll kick your ass this afternoon." He didn't argue and held a winning smile while you saved your number on his phone.

"You mean you will try do it. See you later, Kisser Girl." He corrected smiling smugly. You crossed your arms and sighed as he walked to the car.

I can't believe I fell for it ...

He's too persuasive. It is even scary.

Pov's Adrien:

I was at the school entrance by the car looking at my schedule for today on my cell phone.

I'm waiting for Felix to go home but he's taking too long.

I kept my cell phone in my pocket and decided to come in to pick it up but as soon as I laid eyes on the entrance I saw Felix giving his phone to (Y / n). Possibly she was giving her number... I felt my blood boil and looked away so I wouldn't look like a madman staring. It's not a big deal, I may be overreacting. But what if Felix likes her? She can't say she's dating Chat Noir.

This sucks, why can't we be a normal couple? I'm tired of these secrets...

I got in the car and tried to calm myself down, I'm being very obsessive for no reason.

Not long after, Felix got in too and the driver started driving.

"So what did you think of the school?" I asked trying to make a point, out of the corner of my eye I could see he had no expression on his face.

"Stifling and Noisy." He wrinkles his nose.

"You didn't seem to hate it that much. I never thought I'd see you so glad to get a girl's number." I teased. He turned to me and raised an eyebrow before an evil smile lit his face.

"The same girl you're in love with. I've never been so glad." He scoffed, I opened my eyes wide but soon disguised it by looking away.

"Ha ha ha... Why d-do you think that?" I covered my tension with a laugh.

"I saw the drooling way you look at her and you lie very badly. Why don't you just tell her? Are you afraid of being rejected?" He rolled his eyes, I sighed in defeat.

"I can't, she's already with someone else." Technically, I wasn't lying.

"Really? Who is he? Is he from this school?" I was surprised by his curiosity, it confirms my assumptions.

"Why so curious? Do you like her too?" I asked ironically.

"No way. I don't see her that way." He returned with his expressionless look, I can't tell if he's lying.

"So how do you see her?" I asked curiously, he seemed to be trying to find the right words.

"I don't know. It's bearable to be with her. She's stubborn and competitive, it is not tedious to talk to her. She is my rival." He smiled weakly as he spoke. As I thought....

"Yeah you do, you like her. Too bad she already has someone else." I looked away so he wouldn't see my green face with jealousy.

"If it's hard for you to understand I will not argue. But even if she has someone, you should confess to her." He said simply, I raise an eyebrow curiously.

"Why? There's no reason if she already likes-" he interrupted me. "So she can reject you and you'll get over her faster. You don't confess to someone being sure it's mutual." He scoffed. I opened my eyes wide, it was crazy but it even made sense.

"Of course, you must speak from experience." I rolled my eyes.

"No, I read it in a book." He said as he looked through the car window. We were almost close to his house.

Felix may seem cold but deep down I know that he feels alone, I understand him.

I even thought about inviting him to spend some time at my house but today I'm going to be busy all afternoon.

I won't worry, if he can make friends with (Y / n) then maybe during the year he will loosen up more... Possibly...
