This part will be focusing on other characters other than the main heroes. I love all of the really unique personalities of Marinette's classmates, and they all deserve their own spotlights; honestly, they could have a whole sideshow about their lives. The whole class will have their own moments featured in my story, so if your favorite isn't one of the main ones, don't worry.

Sorry for the long overdue update, I'm really sick.:(

Rose and Juleka walked hand in hand through the streets of Paris. The two were taking in the sights and just looking around until it was time to go to the Louvre. As they walked to the Louvre, Rose and Juleka noticed all the stunning architecture, and their excitement grew. Even having grown up in the beautiful "city of love" the architecture never ceases to amaze them and most of the residents.

The Louvre was no exception, as they admired the grandeur of the building's exterior. Once inside, they were blown away by the intricate details and historical significance of the artwork on display. They eagerly anticipated spending the entire day exploring the galleries and learning more about the incredible works of art they had yet to discover. As they approached the entrance, they couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to experience such a magical place when they were finally together.

Despite the crowds, they were immersed in the beauty of the Louvre and took in all the exhibits it had to offer. The Louvre did not disappoint, and living in Paris allows them to revisit their favorite pieces time and time again, yet every time feels like a different experience . The vastness of the museum left them feeling overwhelmed, but they were determined to make the most of their visit. They planned to take a break for coffee and croissants before continuing their journey through the expansive museum. As Rose and Juleka wandered through the galleries, they were transported to different times and places.

The exhibits they saw were captivating and thought-provoking, leaving them feeling enriched and enlightened about history and other cultures. They also took time to snap photos and share their experiences on social media. With everyone so busy and Paris being so unpredictable these last few years, social media has been an escape for many. You could express yourself freely online, and most of the internet haters had taken a break because everyone just needed some human connection these days. However, they realized it was important to remember to take breaks from social media and not let it consume your life. It's also crucial to differentiate between genuine human connections and superficial ones on social media.

The two girls shared their favorite attractions with each other before heading to the room they were supposed to meet Alya, Nino, Kim, and Alix at; the three had decided to have something of a triple date. They had all gone to their favorite attractions and left a few specific ones the group really wanted to see. They would go through the gardens, the Ancient Royal Collections, the Richeliu Wing , and avoid the Egyptian Wing at all costs. Too much bad stuff had happened in the Egyptian wing.

The group was well aware of the bad things that surrounded the Egyptian Wing, which only added to their eagerness to steer clear of it. Instead, they would focus on admiring the beautiful art and artifacts that the other wings had to offer. As they walked through the gardens, they couldn't help but feel a sense of tranquility and beauty that washed over them. The Ancient Royal Collections in the Richeliu Wing were equally breathtaking, and they couldn't wait to fully immerse themselves in the culture and history displayed there.

The crisp November air made their stroll all the more enjoyable as they marveled at the variety of flora and fauna around them. Inside the Richeliu Wing, the delicate paintings and intricate sculptures from different eras offered a glimpse into the artistic legacy of the French monarchy. They marveled at the sights for a while longer before heading out of the museum to hunt down André the Icecream Man.

Andre was a little difficult to track down at the last minute, but eventually he was found near the Pont de Arts bridge, also known as the "lovers lock bridge". The bridge itself has become quite a controversy in France. Seeing as since late 2008, American tourists have been placing locks all over the bridge, the bridge itself was becoming very unstable. With the last count adding up to almost a million locks, the massive weight had messed with the structure of the bridge. Many panels had collapsed off the bridges, and in an attempt to stop more from doing so, they had to board over a lot. So far, the city's attempts at finding a solution have been decently successful thanks to the new " Love Without Locks" campaign, which encouraged people to take pictures with it instead of adding their own locks. Many of the locks added usually end up being thrown away by Mantinece anyway.

When the three couples stopped thinking about the bridge, they ordered their ice cream before heading to sit in the park. All three couples got the lover's treatment, describing their partners to no one's surprise. They ate them along the way to the park while holding hands and just enjoying the refreshing air.

After almost an hour of conversing and goofing off in the park, the group split back up into couples and bid farewell. The rest of the day, they all just enjoyed their partners presence and took time to exist together.
