Lady Luck?

                                    

                                              
A/N: Hey everyone! Thanks for being so patient with me, while I was making this new Wattysode! For those who still don't know a Wattysode is what I call an episode ( one of these ) which I write here - on Wattpad.  Anyways, without any further ado ..... Here's the newest one - this is after "The Magician" - the Christmas one was a special which isn't related to the rest in any particular way. Thanks so much, I hope you 'll love it! ~ Juni
                          


                          
It was time to prepare for the pre-spring dance. Marinette didn't feel like getting out of her bed that day. She was sketching, while lying on her neatly smoothed out bed covers and tried to distract herself from what was waiting for her. 

                          
She felt like everywhere she  turned she saw little faces of Chloe yelling at her how her dress is going to top hers. 
                          
That was one of the reasons why she felt miserable and even considered not going to the dance. The other reason was that she got asked by Adrien to be his partner for it, in the middle of a theater play they performed for the school on a competition which they ended up second in. 
                          
"Come on, Marinette you're going to be late!"
                          
Her mother could be heard yelling from the bottom of the staircase leading up to her room. 
                          
"Yeah, you don't want to keep your prince Charming waiting now do you?" 
                          
Her father joined in. When she heard what he said, she nearly slipped trying to get into her dress. She's been working way too hard on it and her only true wish that night, besides spending half the time with Adrien and the rest of the bunch was for the dress to not suffer the envy of Chloe. 
                          
"Let's go Marinette.....Oh, what's wrong?" 
                          
Tikki was peeking from the clutch and when she saw the way Marinette looked at herself into the mirror she floated out.
                          
"What if I don't look good enough? What if everyone laughs at me? What if..." 
                          
Tikki flapped in front of her mouth. 
                          
"You look amazing, and I'm sure the others will think so as well. Don't let one bad opinion destroy the night you worked so hard for Marinette." 
                          
She took Tikki and snuggled her. Just then a knock on the door was heard. 
                          
"Marinette get down here, I hear the doorbell, it's your job to answer it tonight." 
                          
Her mom knew who was at the door, so that's why she told Marinette to open it. 
                          
She slowly opened her room's door and carefully made her way down the stairs. 
                          
"Aw, doesn't she look pretty?" 
                          
Her mother elbowed her dad to which he just smiled and scratched his head. 
                          
"You look beautiful Marinette, go on open the door already!"
                          
He shoved her towards the bakery front's door and she opened it. It was Adrien standing there, in a suit. 
                          
"A-a-a-"
                          
She couldn't say his name properly and she blushed so hard that she wished she could shove her head in the ground like an ostrich does. 
                          
"Ma- oh." 
                          
He was stunned. He stared at her in a dress for two minutes straight until a nudge from in his suit's inner pocket snapped him out of it. 
                          
"Ouc-right, so uhm...Shall we?" 
                          
She slowly took his hand and they were both off, on foot to the school. 
                          
As they slowly approached the front entrance of their school, Adrien stopped at the staircase and helped Marinette climb them carefully, so she wouldn't damage her outfit.
