Everyone is destined for one miracle in their life, what if Marinette's miracle was a dating game...
Marinette was a junior. With a long year ahead of her, Marinette struggles with helping in her parents bakery and getting her school done, not to me...
"Luka!" Marinette said suddenly stopping him from entering.
"Yes Marinette."
"Well I want to tell you..." Marinette started letting go of his hand. She could do this! She could do this. "I-I-" she looked up into his eyes, his beautiful blue ocean eyes. Looking like the Bahamas, so soft, so sweet. "I upp-nidubba- doo. No. I hobba yoou-" Marinette huffed determined. "Guy lobnipudda goo!!"
Luka laughed placing a hand on her shoulder. "You can tell me another time. I know how hard it is expressing ones thoughts or emotions, sometime the best way to speak is not speaking at all..." He left her alone in the hallway feeling defeated.
She sighed deeply and groaned. She trudged into the classroom and sat next to Alya, her bestfriend, and buried her head in her arms on the table. "Marinette? Are you okay?" She grunted. "Did you tell Luka how you feel?"
Marinette started laughing hysterically. She pushed her head up with a jerk of her hands. "No! I didn't because my stupid words jumbled! I spoke jibberish and he didn't understand anything I said, but he didn't get mad at me, he told me it was alright!" Marinette sighed glancing over at said boy who was plucking his guitar. "God, I like him so much!" She wined.
Alya placed a hand on her head. "Oh my poor little cookie!" She cooed as she hugged her. "Yo Alix! Marinette needs some love!!" Alya yelled across the class. Everyone started laughing as the pink hair girl came over.
"Did that bastard hurt you? Cuz if he did I'll do more than kill him!"
"He's not a bastard he's..." Marinette breathed in as she stared off into no where. "...sweet and kind and-"
"Hot!" Alix added earning a glare from Marinette.
"It doesn't matter because I can never seem to tell Luka how I feel and even if I did, I'm probably not his type anyway..." Marinette said with a sigh.
Alya slammed her hand on the table. "You just need some practice, now I was gonna ask Max bbbbbuut... I think you need it more." Alya tapped her email on her phone and sent something. "I Emailed to it you!" She said setting her phone on the table.
Marinette raised an eyebrow. "What is it?"
"Well a upcoming developer saw my blog and knowing I have many ties, so... he asked me to find a beta tester for his program." Alya explained.
"What kind of program?" Alix asked leaning over on her hands.
"A dating simulator."

Marinette lean over the counter tapping her fingers on the plastic top. Her mind was running rapidly adding and subtracting the prices of each item, calculating the orders. Macaroon x three - two croissants + one peach smoothie. "That'll be €13.05 please!"
The last customer smiled as he took his bags and boxes and left. Marinette sighed taking the rag from over her shoulder and wiping down the counter. When she was done, she flipped the sign on the bakery door and locked it. She walked from table to table collecting the dirty dishes left behind and wiping the crumbs off the table.
Finally finishing her chores in the bakery, Marinette retired to her room for the night. She grabbed a soda pop on her way up and plopped down in her desk chair. She took out her bun letting her sapphire hair spill out over her shoulders.
Marinette started working on her geography homework. To be honest, Marinette was horrible at geography and literature and history and most other subjects in school. The only thing she really was good at in school was science and math. She already finished Math at school. Ugh school! Marinette only went for one reason...
"Oh Luka. God I'm an idiot! I couldn't even tell him how I feel!" She groaned to herself.
You just need some practice... Alya had said so earlier. She sent her something to help her, a game.
Forgetting her school assignments, Marinette logged onto her computer. Her wallpaper popped up on the screen. A picture of her and Luka, mostly Luka, she was in the background. Smiling and determined she clicked on her email inbox. Surely enough there was an email from her bestfriend.
She opened the file attached and downloaded it. Then going into her files opened the program to a blank screen.
