The Matchmaker.

Hey friends, and welcome to this story. This was randomly inspired by a post I saw, and the opportunity seemed too good to pass up. Let me know if you want to see more, because I honestly only have a faint idea of where this is going. I hope you enjoy!

Chapter 1

Real Smooth

"Come on, girl. You have to do it this time!"

Alya pushed her resisting friend towards the school building.

"But what if he thinks I am stupid, and desperate, and clingy? Then how are we supposed to have our future house and 2 kids and hamster?!" Marinette rambled.

"Now hold on-"

"What if he's not even here today?" Marinette continued, oblivious to her friends words. "What if he's home sick? What if I'm sick?! What if when I try to talk to him I cough on his face and he gets sick and dies?!?! I do feel a little under the weather. Maybe I should go home? Yeah, I'm gonna go home."

Marinette dodged Alya and sprinted down the steps of the school.

Wham!

Marinette groaned as she sat up.

"Oh my gosh! I am so sorry…"

She looked up to see who she had run into. Her eyes widened.

"A- A- Adrien?!?!"

Marinette shrieked. She leapt to her feet, rushed over to the grass, and jumped into a bush.

Adrien sent Alya a questioning look as Nino helped him stand up.

"Ummm… It's a puberty thing," she told the boys as she started towards the bush where Marinette was hiding. She smirked as she saw both of their cheeks redden as she passed them.

Alya sighed as she knelt next to the trembling bush.

"That was real smooth, Mari. He is practically falling for you already."

"Shut up," Marinette said as she stood and began to extricate herself from the bush.

"He just caught me off guard."

"Oh is that what just happened?" Alya smirked. However, she pulled together a serious face and told her friend, "But all jokes aside, you need to get yourself together. I know you guys are made for each other, but how is Adrien going to know if you can't even string together a coherent sentence around him?"

"I don't know…" Marinette sighed dejectedly as plopped down in the grass beside Alya.

"Hey, don't worry, girl. I got your back. We'll figure out a way for you to confess your love."

Alya got to her feet and held out her hands to help Marinette up.

"Thanks, Alya. I don't know what I'd do without you."

"Be late to class," Alya responded as she helped her up, "Although you manage to be a pro at that anyway. Now c'mon, let's go!"

So the two ran into the school building, neither prepared for the events that were coming their way.

Well there it is. Let me know if you like it! Some additional information: I will be writing this as I continue work on my fanfiction: The Lost Demigod (A Heroes of Olympus fanfiction). Check it out if you are interested, and always remember to be kind and have a great day! :)
