Maybe for once, her luck has finally endowed her love life.
"Why don't we stop here for a while," she suggested. "And ask some people who can help us instead."
By some people, she might or might not have referred him to their best friends who may or may not be in the middle of a romantic date.
Sitting on a bench, Adrien pulled his phone out and dialed Nino's number. It took him five rings before the call was answered.
"Dude." was the abrupt greeting, and it was evident in the tone that he was pissed.
"I know, I know. Sorry." the model muttered while rubbing his nape. "This is an important issue."
"Pray do tell why this important issue cannot be discussed through text?"
"Because..." he glanced his companion grimly. "We got a-strayed...?"
A chuckle sounded on the other line. "What, you and Chloe got lost?"
"I'm not with Chloe." he sighed. "I'm with Marinette."
Nino placed him on mute. A few seconds later, Marinette's phone rang with Alya's caller ID flashing on the screen.
The pigtailed girl immediately hit the Answer Key "Hi Al - "
"YOU'RE WITH ADRIEN?!"
She had to yank her phone away from her ears before responding. "Uh, yes...?"
Her call went on mute for a minute, probably for her best friend to vent out her squealing mess, before returning to the conversation. But this time, her tone was full of anger.
"AND YOU TWO GOT LOST?!"
"Erm, something like that...?"
"ARE YOU, WHAT, A KINDERGARTEN?!"
She felt overly insulted.
When Alya placed her on mute again, Nino went back to Adrien.
"Not only you two were damn oblivious, you both got no sense of direction." the DJ mused much to the blond's disgruntlement. "Now why don't you tell Daddy Nino and Mommy Alya where the fuck you two ended up instead."
After they painstakingly described the landmarks they've passed while utilizing the wonders of GPS, the four friends finally mapped their locations and where they should go to their class' meeting place.
The friends decided to end their discussion and hang up.

The two haven't found the location yet
"Adrien." Marinette huffed. "Are you sure you know where the hell are we are going, or you're just doing this to get us lost?"
She was expecting him to reprimand her for stating that L-word. Instead, he gave her a phony bewilderment.
"How did you know?" he gasped as he clutched his chest.
She rolled her eyes, but before she could spout something back, her companion stopped his tracks. She saw his invisible kitty ears perked up on top of his head, and without any warnings, he grabbed her hand.
"Hey, Mari! Mari! Let's go there!" Adrien dragged her languidly without noticing her flusters. "C'mon!"
"Wa - wait! That's not the right way!"
