[ He's well informed for someone who "didn't do much", but this too she shall let pass. Is it strange that she's... oddly nervous? Excited? She's carrying around a potentially enormous secret now, but she has a thousand questions, not least of which being how Adrien will take it when or if she confronts him with the truth...
For now she'll just enjoy the reprieve, unable to help grinning at his laughter. His comment about Cat Noir and her contribution to the fight have her feeling a little self conscious, but not uncomfortable like before their talk on the tower. It helps that it's just Adrien and not the entire class. If her suspicion is correct it also isn't lost on her that ADRIEN was very impressed. ]
Yeah, well, I started this mess. I couldn't just sit around letting someone else clean it up after me. And Besides, it's like you said: They did all the heavy lifting.

[ Adrien is still totally oblivious to the fact that he's being let off the hook way too easily. Maybe it's because of Piper's good acting, but he's more than happy to go along with it and not talk about it.
.......His stomach decides to growl just then, as if trying to do the talking for him.
[ Hey. Hey! That's exactly what was needed to break the tension! Piper gives it a solid effort for about three seconds, not to laugh, but finally she can't help it, relief hitting her hard. The situation had resolved itself, though... maybe she should worry a bit about the guy who was akumatized. In fact she does cast a glance back the way they'd come from.
Cat Noir- Adrien -hadn't seemed too worried, so maybe she was overthinking it. Besides, seeing her right now, she's sure THAT won't help the guy out at all.
After a moment of short silence she turns back to Adrien again and nods. ]
Yeah. There's still time before we have to get back to class. Why don't we check out that new cafe the others were talking about?
With a grin on his face, he pulls out his phone, juuust to make sure they have as much time as they think they do. Then he'll lead the way, tucking the thing back into his pocket.
Right where they left off, huh? At least she did the honors this time, and didn't make him ask her out again.
But next time—next time will be easier. Next time won't be so awkward.
