[ It's chill. She'll wait. In the meantime while he's texting the two adults Piper takes the chance to point a couple of the others towards the fridge for refills on sodas. By the time Adrien wraps up texting- something that doesn't take long of course -Piper is ready to pick up right where they left off. ]
We were all hoping the surprise would make up for it.
[ It still sucked feeling like they were letting him down, she knows from a few of their more vocally earnest classmates, reasonably worried and hopeful that Adrien wouldn't take it too hard. They were all pretty relieved when the work and the innocent deceit paid off.
Piper is tempted to comment about how she'd never actually DONE anything like this before, if just to poke some fun at herself and transition the conversation, but it feels too much like humble bragging and she's not looking for recognition here. The fact that Adrien is so pleased with the result is literally all that matters. It does, admittedly, take her mind some off of her own disappointment with her dad's schedule, but that's strictly a side benefit. ]
