~12~ Lessons in Kindness

You wake up curled under your blanket. You quickly got ready for school and before running out the door you stop yourself to grab two cookies you and Adrien made the night before.

The walk to school was short and fast and as soon as you got there you sat down at your desk.  Adrien soon walked in and you quickly got up and walked over to him. "Here Adrien," you held the cookies out to him.

"Thank you (Y/N)!" He takes them and starts eating them. Someone who had gone unusually unnoticed got up and ran out crying. It was Chloe Bourgeois. You handed the cookies to Adrien and ran out to see where she was headed. She ran into the janitors supply closet. You slowly headed in there. "Knock knock?"

"Did you come to rub my pain in my face?" She coldly spat out at you as you sat down across from her.

"You really haven't taken the time to get to know me. I'm not that kind of person Chloe. I'm worried about you. Is it because of Adrien?" You look at her face but she refuses to make eye contact with you.

"What do you think? Why do you care, you're the one who ripped him away from me." She suddenly glared at you, and it did scare you a bit, but you soon recovered.

"No Chloe, you're the one who did this to yourself. Every time you treated one of his friends like they were lesser people you pushed him away a little more." She looked at you confused.

"They are lesser though. It's not my fault if he disagrees." her tone was her usual cold, harsh tone.

"Can't you see, it's stuff like this that he didn't like. He loves his friends, all of our classmates. They're one of the fun things in his life, and you just constantly mistreat us." Her eyes looked down guilty. "He just wants you to be nice. It's not too late for you to fix this Chloe."

"How?" She looked up at you, tears brimming on her eyes, ready to pour down.

"Come on now don't feel so bad, we don't need another Akuma." She laughed a bit at the joke making you laugh too. "How about you write out letters of apology to everyone who you've been nasty to? I can help you if you need."

"Why are you being so nice to me, you're the last person who should be nice to me. Just yesterday I tried to make everyone hate you." You pushed up off of the floor, then held out a hand to her.

"Some people aren't so chaotic, and I don't know if you've ever someone like that. I'm willing to forgive you if you're willing to change for the better." she looked at your hand for a while. "Come on Chloe, it'll be hard, but trust me it'll be worth it." She slowly slid her hand into yours and you helped her up. "Now how about we clean up your face and go back to class?" She smiled at you.

"That sounds nice." You both headed off to the bathroom, you just stood with her as she reapplied her eye makeup and cleaned up her running mascara. Soon you were both headed back to class. You both got back before the bell rang, everybody was looking at you two whispering.

"Are you okay, what did she do to you?" Alya whispered at you, glaring after the blonde as she walked to her seat next to Sabrina.

"She didn't do anything to me, I think she'll be way more tolerable soon, I'll explain later." You glance over at Adrien before class starts. He looks at you concerned and you smile at him widely. When lunch arrives Adrien rushes towards you.

"Hey what happened between you and Chloe?" You stood up and the two of you started walking together.

"I comforted her, She promised to be nicer, I don't know how sincere she was being, but she likes you a lot." You give him a crooked smile.

"She never really liked me, just the idea of me." You looked at him confused. "I mean the only reason she ever liked me is because I'm on her level and I look good. She never stopped to get to know me as a person at all. That's all I ever wanted her to do for me." He looked down a bit sad.

"Hey, you've got real friends now," You smiled at him, his eyes lit up a bit looking back at you. "And hey, you might even find a girl." You started laughing and he laughed a bit too.

"Yeah, maybe. How are you and Cat doing?" He gave you a devilish smile, the kind any friend would give when asking about love. Your face lights up red.

"Oh you know, we're doing great. At least I hope so. I really like him and he's so flirty I can't tell if he really likes me too, or if he's just having some fun. You're a guy, and you're friends with him, what do you think?" his face turns a soft pink too.

"Oh well, I think  he likes you too, I mean I'm not sure, but just wondering. What would make him liking you more obvious to you?" He looks at you and you hesitate, you hadn't thought of it.

"Oh, I guess I hadn't thought of that." You giggled a bit and gave it some thought, "well he's been flirting with me, but he hasn't taken me on a date at all. I mean I get it, he's a superhero, not a high school student, but a date would be nice." the bell rang before you could respond and the rest of the school day passed. You walked home alone.

You sat on the couch all the rest of the day, until night had long fallen. You were about ready to go to bed when you heard a knock from your balcony door. You walked over to the glass door and saw Cat Noir. "Cat what are you-" he put his finger over your mouth, making you blush bright red.

"Go on a date with me, (Y/N)."
