" Wait, so this was all a misunderstanding?!" Cassie exclaimed in confusion. It was a couple hours later and the group all were sitting or hiding behind one another. Albert started to get up, hands clenched into fists. "How do we even know if he's telling the truth??" Albert glared at Adrien who flinched under the angered stare. Sean lowered his hood and moved a little in front of Adrien, He couldn't let someone he could relate to this much get hurt is what he reassured himself when he got a few stares. Cassie spoke up, "Well he hasn't tried anything yet.. and Adrien seems to be in one piece still.." She laughed a bit nervously when Albert looked at her. Nicole edged closer to get a better look. "He's kinda cute too.." Sean blinked in surprise but stayed silent. Adrien let out a small sigh. Chole hummed to herself in thought. "Now I know I'm 'just a stupid blonde' but he doesn't seem interested Nicole.." Cassie looked back, "We never said you were stupid- Where did you get that from?" "ah..Just school." Sean glanced up. "School is just hell." He mumbled and Nicole looked away blushing, she loved his slightly deeper voice. Sean rolled his eyes, He was quite used to this behavior.

Albert sighed and pulled Chole close, "You're not stupid." He looked away as almost everyone looked at him. Adrien was the only one who used the opportunity to look up at Sean who was a foot taller than him. Adrien didn't like this.. He was so used to being the short one, it was exhausting at times. Nicole looked back at Sean and continued, "So.. What is it like hiding from the police and stuff?" Nicole has never broken a law and just couldn't fathom being on the run from police, Sure the police weren't good people but since Cassie was the only POC in the group no one else really had much to worry about.

Chole rolled her eyes slightly at Nicoles question, "You don't just ask someone that Nicole.." Sean shrugged, "I don't mind.. I never liked cops anyways.." Adrien perked up, "ACAB-" He said excitedly. Cassie nodded and so did Sean. "What's that mean?" Albert tilted his head confused. Chole looked up at Albert, "All cops are bastards.." Sean nodded again.

Albert reacted as most would when they first hear this, "That's fucking rude. My dad is a cop."

Nicole sat up, "No no.. that's not exactly what that means.." Albert turned to glare at Nicole. "Then what does it mean??" Nicole sighed. "You should really chill.. Cops work for a bastardized system and continue to protect cops that have done bad things.." She looked over to Sean for some sort of praise for being a decent human being. Albert crossed his arms. "I see.. I'll.. look that up later because I need to tell my dad about that.." It was dead silent as Adrien looked up at Sean. He seemed upset, more than that actually. "H-hey Sean what's wro-" Adrien didn't even finish his sentence as Sean snarled, "You know what's wrong. You never told me Alberts dad was a cop." Adrien flinched back,Sean started to walk away as Albert looked up. "Wait but he's never home he wouldn't even know if something was going on!"

Adrien tried to follow Sean but he just pushed him away, causing Adrien to tumble to the ground. He was just light and easy to push around. Sean mumbled an apology as he trudged back into the trees, Adrien sat up as Cassie rushed to him. He couldn't hear or even focus on what Cassie was asking him. ""Hey hey! Dri cmon.. Get up," When he didn't respond she shook his shoulders gently. "Hm?" He turned to Cassie pulling his gaze from the hooded figure retreating into the woods. "You good?" He just nodded his head and got up brushing off his jeans. Albert started to follow Sean a little pissed off, Adrien stood and grabbed his arm. "Don't. Hes.. hes not to be trusted." His voice almost broke at that it personally hurt him to say that about someone that was so similar to himself.

Nicole sighed softly, "He was cute too.." Chole rolled her eyes and turned to Nicole. "All you talk about is boys.. Sean isn't your type anyways." Nicole looked offended and walked to her tent. "You guys will see.." Cassie groaned and turned to Adrien. "Seriously.. Why does she have to make everything about boys.." Adrien nodded and turned to Albert. "Why did you tell her about us camping dude?" "I dunno.. She seemed lonely.." Albert shrugged as Adrien facepalmed. "She drives everyone away. That's why." Chole spoke up, "We're getting off track here.. What do we do now?" Everyone in unison shrugged. Adrien blew teal hair out of his face, his ADD kicked in a little as he thought.'Damn I should really get a haircut. Maybe dye my hair black like S.. eh nevermind.'' He blinked to realize everyone was staring at him. He immediately became uncomfortable and mumbled, "What?" Cassie turned to face him fully, "Well are you gonna mess around with your hair or get your boyfriend back here??" Adrien's face burned red with embarrassment as Albert and Chole laughed. "H-he's not my boyfriend what the fuck Cas-" He could feel that the tips of his ears were red too.

Adrien never found Sean that day, He was nowhere to be found near the old cabin. So at the end of the day they gave up and started getting into their tents. However, "Hey! I'm not sleeping in the same tent as Albert again!" Chole complained as Cassie and Nicole got into their tent with no issue. "Just take mine.. I don't mind as long as he doesn't take my book.." Adrien sighed climbing into Alberts tent. Chole smiled and got into the slightly smaller tent. Adrien kept a little flashlight and started to read when he heard Alberts breathing slow to a calm pattern. Adrien began reading, not 20 minutes later there was a yell and what seemed to be a mass of confusion. Adrien sat up to look around, Albert was still sound asleep. Adrien crawled out of the tent and looked over to the smaller tent. A dark hooded figure was stooped down looking into the tent. The one who screamed was Chole, Nicole poked her head out of her shared tent and sighed. "So he likes her.." Sean pulled down his hood and backed away. Cassie was up and out of the tent already. "Oh? What are you doing here." Cassie had her hands on her hips as she stood there menacingly, She was not gonna let one of her friends get hurt. "I uh..was ..looking for.. Adrien..." As he spoke his voice got quieter from embarrassment.
