This is my first time participating in a monthly challenge ever! The quarentine, while terrible, has given me the opportunity to not be busy for a while which means I can get back into writing. I've missed it a lot more than I thought I did.

Adrinette April Day 1 – Pranks

Marinette didn't like pranks. She loved them. Which is why she jumped at the chance to prank Adrien and the rest of the boys with her girlfriends in class. After all, she still had yet to get him back for the incident at the wax museum. This was going to be the best April Fools Day prank ever!

She had texted Alya and the girls the second she finished the last outfit and in less than 20 minutes, they had crowded her bedroom loft. Excitement bubbled in the air as the girls giggled and chattered amongst themselves.

"Alright girls," Alya's commanding voice broke out above the rest. "Operation: The Boys Are Fools is officially a go. Thanks to Marinette and her amazing work."

Marinette blushes proudly as the other girls voice their gratitude and admiration. "Thanks you guys. I can't wait to see all the boys faces when we show up at school tomorrow."

"So we're sitting in their seats too, right?" Alix pops her gum. "Cause if that wasn't part of the plan, it should be. It'd be so awesome."

"Oh, this is going to be so fun!" Mylène clapped.

"I can't wait to see their faces tomorrow morning!" Rose squealed.

"Yeah… I mean… Yeah… It'll be great…" Juleka murmered as Rose nearly tackled her in an excited hug.

The girls erupted into another fit of giggles.

"Ok, but seriously, girls," Alya said, still giggling. "We have to arrive before the boys do. It'll only work if everyone gets there on time. Right, Marinette?"

Marinette felt Alya's pointed gaze before she saw it. "Yeah, yeah. I know. I'll be there! I want to see the look on Adri- I mean, the boys faces when they get to class."

Rolling her eyes, Alya wrapped her arms around Marinette. "Oh, girl. You're hopeless and I love you."

"We love you, too!" Rose agreed before encouraging the rest of the girls to join the hug.

"Wow, Marinette," Tikki said, "I've never seen you so excited to go to school!"

Marinette was practically sparking with anticipation. "I know, Tikki. Do you think Adrien is going to like the prank?"

"Absolutely. He's going to think it's so funny!"

"Ok," Alya said, ever the commander, "did anyone see any of the boys on their way to class?"

Muttered 'no's' rang through the group.

"Awesome. Then let's go get 'em!" Alya said, opening the door.

The girls all giggled in the classroom as they ran to find their seats. Marinette, in her striped t-shirt and white button up, sat in Adrien's seat next to Alya, who was wearing headphones like an accessory. Mylène, in a skull t-shirt, sat in Ivan's seat. Alix sat in where Kim sits with a sweatband on her forehead. Rose sat in Max's seat and fished out the papermache Markov that Marinette had crafted to place on her desk. Juleka sat in Nathaniels seat and pulled off her hoodie to reveal the red wig she borrowed from the designer.

The girls gossiped amongst themselves quietly as they waited before they heard the door knob turn. Silence erupted amongst the friends as the energy in the room electrified with nervous anticipation as they all watched Adrien and Nino walk in, mid conversation.

Nino noticed the girls first, turning beet red at the image of his girlfriend in his clothes. Marinette giggled at the look the couple shared, knowing there was some kind of silent communication happening between the two.

She peeled her eyes away from the intimate moment to find Adriens eyes on her, his face almost as red as his friend. Suddenly self concious, Marinette shrugged and chuckled meekly. "April fools?"

"You're hot." Marinette's eyes tried to escape her forehead as she tried to process what she had just heard coming out of Adrien's perfect mouth.

"Uh, I mean," Adrien sputtered, "It's hot outside. No, she knows it's not. Um, I mean, y-you look amazing in my clothes. I mean, you must be hot in those clothes. That you're wearing. The amazing clothes that you are wearing. Did you make them? They look awesome. Nice handiwork-"

"Psst, Adrien." Nino hissed from behind. "Sit down."

"Right," Adrien looked relieved to have been stopped. "Sorry."

Marinette knew that she could have fried an egg on her cheeks given how hot they were. She tried to give him an encouraging nod, but she was sure she looked more like one of the animatronics at Chuck-E-Cheese.

"Wow, I never thought I'd see Sunshine over there sound so much like you," Alya whispered.

"Uh huh," was all Marinette could get out.
