ACTUAL CHAPTER TIME UNDERNEATH; I SWEAR IT'LL GET MORE ANGSTY IN THE NEXT CHAPTER.
"Are you okay?" Luka asked Chloé suspiciously as he watched her rub her tear-stained eyes.
"I'm fine." She snapped, pulling her hand back, straightening her back. "Nothing's ever bothered me before, why should it start now?"
Luka hesitantly put a hand on her shoulder, uncertain. He wasn't good with words. He really wasn't. And he wasn't exactly sure who this was besides the fact she was in Marinette's class, but he did want to help. "Are you sure you're oka-"
"Don't. You dare. Pity me." Chloé interrupted, growling as her blue eyes flashing in anger, head turning to face him.
"I just want to help." Luka informed her, softening his tone. "And you look upset."
"I…" Chloé paused, staring at him. "Nobody's ever…well, except for Sabrina, but she has to, or else…"
Luka quirked an eyebrow, curious.
"Nobody's wanted to help me before." Chloé admitted quietly, staring at her feet.
Luka stared at her, wondering whether he should pull her into a hug. She didn't seem like the kind of girl who enjoyed hugs, but, at the same time, she had the expression of one who craved physical affection.
Hesitantly, he held out his arms, figuring she'd push him away and walk off.
Instead, she practically launched himself into his arms, sobbing hysterically into his Jagged Stone T-shirt.
Luka comfortingly ran his fingers through her hair, listening to her uneven, raspy sobs.
"L-ladybug…she gave…" she sniffled, pulling back so that he could hear her clearly, drawing her arm along her eyes to wipe away her tears. "…the Bee Miraculous…she gave Pollen to some…some…girl. I thought…Queen Bee would return someday, b-but…now I don't have…" Chloé let out a sob again, burying her head in her hands.
Oh. Luka realized, staring at her. This is Queen Bee. I…oh. He thought for a bit, imagining how it would be to see someone else vaulting around with the Snake Miraculous.
Sympathy filled his chest, and he gently put a hand on her shoulder.
Surprise flickered across her face as he did so, the diva raising her head.
"Let's go get some ice cream." Luka invited. "We can talk this over somewhere, and…well…be friends?"
Chloe's stared at him, rubbing her face one last time. "Y-yeah. Ice cream sounds great."
So off the two went in search of André and a bench to talk on.
