The students filed into the classroom and the teacher called them for roll call. As class began and the teens flipped through their textbooks, Marinette's mind began drifting to the piece of jewelry on Lila's neck. It was familiar, and she knew she had seen it before, She just needed a closer look. She began thinking about how exactly she could get closer. She and Lila weren't exactly close, they weren't even friends. Her best bet was through another. She leaned over to Alya.
                          
"Hey, could you do something for me?" 
"Uhhh, we're kind of in class right now but, what's up?" 
" I need you to get a picture of Lila's necklace for me."
"Uhhhm, that's an odd request, why?"
"I know I've seen it somewhere before but I can't get a close enough look to tell where."
"Girl you know you can just ask her where she got it from right?"
"No way I'm talking to her."
Alya sighed. "Fine, I'll talk to her after class." 
                          
(after class)
                          
Marinette watched from the other side of the courtyard as Alya approached Lila. She couldn't hear what they were saying but she could tell that Alya was taking care of it. Lila posed and Alya snapped a picture. After a friendly wave, Alya returned to Marinette and showed her the picture. " Is this what you wanted?"
"Yes! Thank you!" Marinette exclaimed as she took alya'sphone and examined the picture. 
"You know, i don't know why you wanted it so badly, but Lila said that she got it at some thrift store in japan, which i thought was really coo............." Alya's voice faded away as realization struck Marinette. She had seen that necklace before. And now she knew where. Marinette rushed home instantly, without a word to Alya or anyone else, bumping into a teacher on the way out. Marinette had to figure out how that liying , two timing, evil jerk got her slimy little hands on a miraculous. 
                          
"Woah where'd she run off to?" Adrien asked coming up behind her.
"I don't know but wherever she went, shes got my phone." 
"She ran off with your phone?" Adrien asked
"Yep."
"Don't worry, she probably ran home, ill go get it for you." 
"Nah, its fine ill just come by and get it later." 
"Alright, ill tell her, see ya later!" Adrien waved and walked after his troubled friend.
                          
Marinette rushed into her house, without saying a word to her parents, the girl bolted into her room and dropped the door behind her. Tikki emerged from her hiding place in Marinettes purse. 
                          
"Marinette what happened??" She asked curiously and slightly worried.
 "What happened?" Marinette echoed.
"What happened is Lila is blaze. Im sure of it."
"How do you know?" She showed tiki the photo, placing the phone on the table while the baker paced through her room. 
"H- how?"
"Gabriel probably called her or something to use her to get our miraculouses.... AARG how did I not see it before!"
"Marinette what are we going to do! Longg is a good friend of mine, i can't imagine what Lila must be putting him through." 
Marinette stopped her pacing to pick up her little friend. 
"We will get longg back, I promise. We'll get them all back." 
She heard a knock at her door and scrambled to hide tikki before someone came in.
"Oh- hi Adrien." Marinette waved. "W- *ahem* what are you doing here?" Trying to gain her composure.
"Alya said you ran off with her phone, i came to get it." He said, fully entering her room.
"Oh, yea, heh sorry about that." Said Marinette, handing it to him.
"What were you doing with it anyway?" He asked, taking the phone.
"Oh- uhm... i, remembered something.... important that i had to do, i.... forgot to give it back." Oh you've done it this time Marinette. Your screwed she thought.
"Oh, that makes sense." What-
"Yeah....." the bluenette chuckled to herself
                          
"Uhm- i brought a copy of Max's game.. if you- wanted to play?" Adrien asked, gestering to his backpack. 
"Uhh not right now, i have the.. important thing i need to do."
"Oh! Yeah- uh, later then?" 
"Yea! We can play after dinner?"
"Sure! Yea that works. Ill just uhm, go practice i guess." 
Marinette smiled at him and he left, mumbling something to himself as he went.
                          
"Ugh why is talking to her so hard???" Adrien said out loud, shutting the door to his room. 
"Your not gonna go talk to her as chat are you?" Plagg asked, snuggling into Adrien's pillow.
"Why not?"
"Well for one, i havent had my cheese yet." Plagg glared at Adrien. The boy groned, then left to get his kwami a sclice. Only when he returned with half a wheel of cheese did Plagg continue. 
"Second, your never gonna get used to talking to her as Adrien if your only talking as Chat." The kwami said, munching on his cheese.
"Its- its not just me plagg, Marinette is.... different around chat. Shes more comfortable, and less... i don't know, compact? I wish she had that with me, as Adrien, and ive tried! It just- doesnt work." The model spoke, looking out his window. 
"Ya know kid" said plagg, swallowing his cheese. " you really need to try harder as Adrien. Chat is a superhero. Not a tool to get the ladies." Adriens face flushed. "That is not-" 
"Whatever kid, its not like you ever listen to me anyway." Plagg said, snuggling into the soft pillow for a nap. Adrien groaned and sat on his desk chair, and began his homework, so that he would be free later to talk to Marinette. His way.
