"You're back!"

"Yeah, and maybe we'll have enough time to get to school on time. I'm so sorry to keep you waiting!" Apologized Ladybug as she detransformed.

"We still have at least five minutes, and the school is right across the street, don't worry!" I assure her.

Marinette sighed. "Okay..."

"Yesterday, Mister Bourgeois was re-elected as the mayor of Paris for the fourth constructive time. Here we see Mister Bourgeois with his daughter," reported Nadia from Marinette's computer. I had turned it on while waiting for Mariette to return.

"Ugh, look at Chloe. Acting like she's the mayor of Paris." I said, rolling my eyes.

"Oh! Which reminds me, class representative elections are tomorrow!" Said Marinette in realization.

And so is Dark Blade. An akuma I'm not going to bother stopping.

"What's so bad about that?" Asked a curious Tikki.

"I'm not too sure, but from what I've heard, Chloe's been the class rep for ever now. Is that right, Marinette?"

"Yeah, the one person who cares least about the students and cares the most about herself," she grumbled.

"But who's going to be her deputy? It's not like Sabrina's going to help her. Maybe you should run, Marinette," I suggested. Honestly, why do I even try to follow the original plot anymore?

"I would but- Hey, Are you alright? Your face is...Really red."

"W-what? Oh, it's probably because it's so hot in here...I sweat easily," I smoothly lied. Why was I blushing? It's because while thinking the original plot, I was reminded how the kiss I shared with Chat pretty much ruined it...I've been trying to avoid Adrien as much as I could, and I think he's doing the same. Chat hasn't visited me for over an entire week.

"-probably do it. Are you even listening?"

"H-huh? Of course I am. You said you would run for class rep but your too busy as Ladybug as it is, right?" That was what she said in the show.

"Yes, and?"

"A-and?"

She sighed. "And I think you should probably run for it."

"Me? Why me?"

"Yes, you. You make a great leader. I've already asked Alya. She said that she might agree to be your deputy. Apparently her blog is a full time job, so she still need to think about it."

"Oh...Wait, we're going to be late. Come on!" I quickly changed the subject. Is changing the entire plot okay? I mean, I kind of want to...

"Chloe is running for the class representative position, and will be working alone. Do we have any other candidates?" Asked Miss Bustier.

"Don't you need a deputy for the position?" I asked Marinette.

"I guess Miss Bustier had no choice since no one else wants to run," shrugged Marinette.

"I think they do, but Chloe probably blackmailed them," I said.

"Or bribery," concluded Marinette.

"One or the other.

"So, are you going to run?"

"I-I don't know..."

"Alright, I'll give all of you until the end of lunch to decide if you'd like to be a candidate," announced our class teacher.

Marinette, Alya and I watched as Chloe went around threatening all of our classmates.

"So, what did Chloe tell you?" I asked Kim.

"She said she'll tell everyone about my fear of spiders," he said.

"No need for her to do that, you literally just told us yourself," I said.

"It's not you guys I'm worried about..." He muttered.

"She told me that if I ran for the election, I'd get kicked out of scrap booking club, and you know how much I love all those stickers, colorful scraps of papers and gluing!" Squeaked Rose.

"Well, I couldn't care less about being a candidate. What's your excuse?" Said Alix, pointing at Marinette.

"Um, well, I'm really busy..." Answered Marinette. Very convincing Mari.

"Doing what?" Asked Alya. "Over sleeping?"

"What? No! I, um..." Panicked Marinette.

I sighed. "I'll run."

"You're really going to do it?" Marinette asked excitedly.

I soften at her enthusiasm. "I suppose it's up to me to protect this class from Chloe's wrath."

Back in class, Miss Bustier was asking if there were any other candidates who would run against Chloe.

That girl looked so smug, as is she had already won. Well, we'll see about that.

"I'll go against Chloe!" I shouted, raising my hand and earning a glare from the brat herself. I'm honored.

"Wonderful! You'll need to develop your campaigned, and have a speech ready by tomorrow. We'll have the vote then!" Said Miss Bustier happily.

Gosh, she really doesn't want Chloe to be class rep, does she.

********

"So? Let's hear the scoop on your campaign!" Said Alya. "How are you going to represent?"

"I honestly don't know yet. Usually when I write something, I just dish out some ideas, make some sentences and keep editing. I always get my winning presentations like this back home," I explained. "I'll need sometime. But I think I'm going to include some student problems and my solutions for them in it to let everyone know I'll try my best to solve student problems."

"Oh, if you need some problems, I can help!" Said Rose cheerily. "Can you think of a solution for more comfortable chairs? They're so hard, I can barely concentrate in class!"

She gasped. "Maybe Pink ones!"

"Sure, rose. I'll think about it."

"And it be pretty cool if we could listen to our beats when we study in the library!" Said Nino. Dude, you do realize that the library in a place of silence, right?

"And, you know, um. I don't know," mumbled Juleka.

"Okay, I'll take it I'll into consideration!" I assured them.

"Hey, Adrien!" Called Marinette.

Oh, no. Why did you do that?

"Yin can count on your vote, right?"

"H-huh? Yin? Where? Oh, the campaign...Yeah!" Then, he ran off, his cheeks as red as a rose. I see he hasn't gotten over IT either.

"What's wrong with him...? Whoa, Yin! What's wrong with you?" Asked Alya, eyes as big as saucers.
