"In most fairy tales the prince breaks the spell by kissing the princess, can anyone tell us why?" Ms. Bustier asks, Rose raising her hand to answer. "Because only love can conquer hate." "Correct Rose." "Technically speaking this type of reasoning is only exhibited in about 87% in about all fairy tales," Max tries to explain further. "Thank you, Max, that's enough. Adrien, I hope what you're writing has to with my lesson," Ms. Bustier says, turning her attention to the said blonde boy, making Mari gasp.

"Can you tell me what I just said?" "That's why in most fairy tales the prince breaks the spell by kissing the princess because only love conquers hate," The bell rings and Ms. Bustier reminds us of our homework as we head to lockers. I notice Mari isn't with us and I nudge Alya. "Where is she?" "She stayed behind for something. But while we wait, do you have any plans for Valentine's Day?"

She gives me a smirk, Marinette and her have come to the conclusion along with Flaake that I had a crush on Luka though I've denied it multiple times and thankfully Marinette walks around the corner clutching a crumpled piece of paper to her chest. Quickly I caught up to her before Alya could start shipping me with Luka again.

On our way back to the bakery we pass by Kim and Max making us stop to see what they were up to. In Kim's hand was a heart-shaped box with a beautiful crystal broach inside. "Oh, sparkly is that for moi?" Alya asks as we walk up. "Negative Alya. The recipient of this gem has already been determined. It's-" Max starts to say before being cut off by Kim who covers his mouth. "Shhh, keep it on the down-low." "SCOOP! Kim's got a major crush! Who's the lucky lady?" Alya starts to ask, pulling out her phone when I grab her arm as a silent way to tell her to back off.

"It's gorgeous Kim, she's gonna be ecstatic," I tell him with a smile and he nervously rubs the back of his head. "Technically she's still gotta accept it- What if she says no?!" "She won't Kim, no way! Don't hold back Kim, go for it! No Regrets!" Mari says encouragingly and after some instructions from Max, Kim takes off running.

"I know someone who's good at dishing out advice who can't take some herself," Alya teases, pointing at Adrien. "You're right. It's time I told him." "Say what?!" Alya and I ask with a look of disbelief and she confirms what she said. "I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna tell Adrien how I feel. I'm gonna tell Adrien my true feelings. Well, I'm gonna write them on a card that is," We get excited and do a little hand-shake like high-five shouting "Operation Valentine's Day!" We rush back to the bakery and once we get inside Sabine stops me.

"Oh (y/n) this came, it's for you," She hands me a small pink box tied up with a red ribbon. I search the box to find no name except for mine, Alya and Mari oooing behind me at the small present. "Thank you, Sabine," We head back upstairs to Mari's room where they rush me to open the gift. "Alright, already calm down you two," I opened it to find a small wrapped bag of my favorite sweets/ snack with a card underneath.

"Hope these treats brighten up your day, meet me where we first introduced ourselves in an hour and I'll have another surprise for you- Luka," My face heats up as I feel the girls smirking at me before singing out how the gift was from Luka. "Aren't we here to help Marinette confess to Adrien?" I ask slightly annoyed, getting the girls back on topic as Alya grabs some scissors and paper and starts cutting, Marinette grabs some paper and starts to write while I turn to my own little project.
