I was most definitely stressing over my horrifying encounter with Snakes yesterday, along with the cute little note he left me. I had decided that I needed to take a break from living in supernatural, and actually try and fix my real life.

"Zoé!"

I sprinted through the clumps of people crowding around on the street, trying to catch up to one of my estranged best friends. I'll admit it had been a little weird, going so long without talking to Zoé and I really did miss her. And besides, she'd been totally right. She sometimes was, even more so when it came to guys.   

Wow. It was time for some serious groveling.  

"Zoé!" I gasped out, clutching at her forearm when I finally caught up to her.  

She stopped midstep and whipped around to glare at me, an angry look on her face. I would've been completely freaked out if she didn't look just the slightest bit ridiculous, all angry and ticked off when she was dressed in her totally glamerous designer clothes.   

"Well?" Zoé asked, her eyes narrowed.   

"You were right." I panted, trying to catch my breath. "You were totally right."  

Zoé frowned, momentarily distracted. "What do you mean?"

I took a breath of air, "I love Adrien," I blurted out. "I love Adrien, like, a lot."   

She stood there with a completely baffled look on her face for several moments, long enough for me to think something was going wrong with her thought processing. But then she surprised me beyond belief when a huge smile broke out across her face and she clutched at my shoulders with a squeal, giving me a little shake.   

"I so knew it!" She shouted, making me wince. "I was so absolutely right!"

My face turned a little red against my will and I scowled, looking away from her in embarrassment. "Yep. You were right."    

Zoé smirked, looking insanely smug. "Of course I am. I'm so right about everything all the time."  

I fought back a laugh. Right. Okay.   

We shuffled onto a bus, lucky enough to actually snag seats towards the back and not have to stand up. I clutched my school bag to my chest while the bus took off, just the slightest bit nervous.

Zoé had this look on her face that would've given the Cheshire cat a run for its money and I knew this couldn't be good at all.   

"So?"

I glanced over at Zoé , biting my lip. "What?"  

Zoé stared at me me in an are-you-really-as-dumb-as-you-seem-right-now way. "Don't just what me! How can you drop a bombshell like that and expect me not to ask for details?"  

I blew out a sigh, rolling my eyes. Clearly that was a mistake on my part. "Well..." I trailed off.
"What exactly do you want to know"

Zoé gave me a shove, making me knock into the surly looking woman beside me. I quickly apologized to the now scowling woman before glaring over at Zoé. She didn't look phased in the slightest.  

"What?" She said innocently, shrugging a shoulder.  

I rolled my eyes again with a scoff. "Nice, Zoé."  

"Well!" She squeaked again, shaking my shoulders. "Tell me! Does he like you? Does he know you like him?"

I thought about that for a moment and then my face burned bright red. I decided not to answer that question. Unfortunately, that told Zoé more than she needed to know.
