Bonding
Two weeks later, Chloe had called all of the friends (well Jon and Damian were also considered since they also have living brain cells.) to her hotel room for a much needed bonding time. If they can’t set a time aside to get to know their new friends, they needed to change that ASAP.
So here they all were, on a rare peaceful day, resting in Chloe’s private room, with monopoly in the middle and were successfully destroyed by Marinette. Damian was competitive as hell. Living in the house of vigilantes that would destroy anything and everything until they were banned from the said games had left some marks on him.
But despite his efforts, he was bested by the baker’s daughter and the cold girl with a hidden dark side. Marinette was successfully taking on his challenge and was blocking off all his effort successfully while smiling like an angel. The only one to match her in her luck was Kaylan but even then she had to settle at the second best, pushing Damian behind.
Jon was sitting to the side, laughing at him like a best friend is supposed to. The competition was getting a little too heated that Chloe had to force the three of them to stop playing and put on a movie.
The first movie was a cheap horror movie that was ridiculed by the group and they had a good laugh about it. And here she was, tugging her pack mates into fluffy blankets, while they dozed off. Kaylan approached Marinette, who was lightly snoring while slowly slipping off the love seat. Wrapping her in a blanket and fixing her position to make sure that she doesn’t fall over, Kaylan turned towards the last pair.
Damian was leaning back, not sleeping, and looking peaceful. Jon on the other hand was completely awake and staring at her every move. (Not creepily but like staring while deep in thought)
Seeing her attention on him he smiled lightly and tilted his head towards the door. His indication was clear.

Stepping in the cold night, Kaylan sighed before looking at the boy who asked for her time. Both walked around without any destination in mind and talked about their everyday life. Like how the class dynamic was before and how it is affected.
…I mean, if the teacher was strict enough to listen to no nonsense like Miss Mendeleev, our akuma rate would have been lower.
Miss Mendeleev is the science teacher right?
Kaylan nodded before launching at her explanation about how there hadn’t been more than once a month akuma from her class, while her classmates had been climbing the number like it was a competition between them to see how many times one can akumatized.
And this girl just….. He made a few gestures with a pained face making her smile. …..posts any and everything. Just like that?
Kaylan smirks at his struggle before dryly consoling him and walking towards the hotel room, while telling even more outrageous claims and how they had been uploaded on the trashy tabloid, whose owner calls them a reporter. Jon whined painfully, hearing this has been nothing but torturous. The reporter in him was dying slowly and painfully.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The group of friends scattered after waving each other goodbye. Marinette and Kaylan walked towards the direction of the bakery while Luka and Kagami were leaving with Kagami’s ride, and the rest living in the hotel. Marinette yawned, clearly tired.
Do you think we should trust them?
Marinette asked wearily. While it was nice to have people that do not listen to the liar but having your trust betrayed by the people you kept closer to your heart hurts. And so she always asked the opinions of her team despite having guardian’s instincts.
They are hiding a secret of their own. If you trust them with a miraculous, you need to wait out a little more and get a read on them first.
Marinette nodded before waving and entering the bakery. Kaylan stared ahead before walking down the path of her home.
Is something wrong pup?
Nova peeked out of her jacket pocket, looking at her in concern. There was a moment of silence before Kaylan shook her head and ignored the look her Kwami was giving her.
‘I wonder if….’
