P.S. This is my first time doing this so I hope it's not terrible

Marinette is home after a long day at school, her mind as always is focused on Adrien. She daydreams about asking him out, and of course him asking her out. She is interrupted by the buzz of a engine. She looks out her window to see a car pulling up with Adrien in it. Marinette panics and she stuffs pictures of Adrien under her pillow. Adrien gets out but doesn't head to the bakery yet, he walks around the car and opens the door for a girl. Marinette freezes up and anger builds like a fire within her. Who is this girl? What is she doing in Adrien's car? She knows that she'll find out soon enough because Adrien and the girl enter the bakery.

Marinette gathers herself and heads downstairs. She peaks around the corner to listen in on the conversation. "We'd like to order some cupcakes please Mrs. Dupain-Cheng" says Adrien "Yes right away, what color would you like them" "Red and gold would be nice" "Okay, thanks for coming"

"Thank you, bye" Marinette quickly jerks her head back so she's not to be seen. She goes back to her room and sits on her bed. She hangs her head and thinks about who that girl could be. Could she be Adrien's girlfriend, no, at least she hopes not. Suddenly a realization comes to Marinette, she is jealous of the girl. She has to do something, she can't lose Adrien. Marinette thinks and thinks, she thinks some more and comes to a conclusion. She knows what she has to do.

The next day Marinette heads off to school but she is very nervous for what she is going to do. She falls into step with Alya and explains her idea. Alya looks skeptical of the plan and reminds Marinette that every time she tries to talk to Adrien she stutters uncontrollably. Marinette scowls and tells Alya why she is so motivated this time, she tells her about Adrien and the girl. "Oh, so you're doing it out of jealousy than huh?"

"Um, no, yes, I don't know" responds Marinette "Well good luck anyway" says Alya.

After class Marinette waits for Adrien to be alone. She approaches him and taps him on the shoulder. He faces her and waits for her to say something. "Adrien, uh, um, um, uh, um" "Do you want to say something, or" Adrien asks looking up from his backpack

"Um, yeah so I um was wondering if maybe you could, um maybe, go with me s-somewhere, um, uh yeah, like alone and stuff." "You mean like a date?"

"Oh, um sure, yeah" Marinette twirls her hair nervously around her fingers waiting for an answer, but Adrien just stares at her in awe. "Um, ok, I uh understand if you don't um want to, bye I guess" Marinette tries to look fine, but it doesn't last long. She runs home to get away from that embarrassing moment and throws herself onto her bed. Tikki dodges around her trying to cheer her up with encouraging words, but Marinette just stuffs her head under her pillow and cries.

Marinette cries until she runs out of tears. Then she gestures for Tikki to come sit in her hands. Tikki asks what happened and Marinette explains her idea. How she asked out Adrien only to get no answer. "He just stood there and stared with those dreamy green eyes of his" Marinette told Tikki "Don't worry you'll be fine Marinette, you have to."

"Why Tikki, why do I have to be fine?" "Well I worry you know, plus everyone is counting on you." "Who Tikki, who needs me?" "Me for one, you, your friends, Ladybug, and the people of Paris." Says Tikki

"Thanks Tikki you're the best Kwami anyone could have." Marinette gives Tikki a miniature hug "Now Marinette you must get over Adrien, and move on, you still have to be Ladybug you know." Tikki reminds her "Yeah I know Tikki, and I will be."

Meanwhile Adrien sits at home contemplating what Marinette said to him. He turns to Plagg "She asked me out Plagg." "So you've told me, but what you didn't tell me is why you couldn't answer." Says Plagg

"Well I do like Marinette, but you also know who I absolutely love."

"You know Ladybug might never love you back right?" "I do Plagg, but I can't help hoping that someday she will"

"Ok, well you should hurry before she gets a boyfriend" Adrien looks at Plagg, anger glinting in his eyes. Then he realizes Plagg is just messing around "I guess, but its so hard to tell her how I feel" he says "Yeah, just like its hard for me to keep this conversation going unless I get Camembert."

"Wow, thanks Plagg" "Your welcome, now give me my cheese." "You'll never get how I feel Plagg, will you" "I already know how you feel, I am hopelessly in love too."

"Really?" He asked the question even though he was pretty sure Plagg had never felt like this before "Yeah, Camembert will never love me back either so we're in the same boat." "Plagg I really thought you got it, I guess not, I'm going."

"Are you going to tell Ladybug what you think of her or what?" "Maybe I will, maybe I won't, Plagg claws out!"

"Tikki spots on!" Marinette transforms into Ladybug then she leaves the bakery and disappears into the night. She swings from building to building searching for any possible akumatized victims to de-evilize. Patrolling Paris makes Ladybug feel much better, but what she doesn't know is someone is following her.

Chat Noir sees her spots move up and down like a mouse escaping a predator. He hopes that he can go through with his plan, but he doesn't know how Ladybug will react. He slowly gains on her trying not to be noticed. The red pigment of her costume makes her easy to follow, for the lights shine on it making it pop. He can't help staring at her lean outline. She is Chat Noir's Lady, his Ladybug.

Ladybug now knows that someones tailing her. She tries several maneuvers to lose them, but it doesn't work. She knows only one person could keep up with her this long. Chat Noir her superhero partner, of whom likes to tell plenty of jokes that might actually be helpful tonight. Ladybug stops and sits casually on a rooftop facing the Eiffel Tower. She calls out playfully "I know you're there kitty come on out!"Chat Noir does come onto the roof and bows "Good evening milady"

"You know that you can't hide from me Chat Noir, so why do you try?" "I don't know Bugaboo, I guess I was nervous."

"Why be Nervous, are you a scaredy cat?" "No, I just wanted to talk to you." He says seriously "Well come on then." She pats the spot next to her. "Thank you milady"

"Where is that humor of yours Chat?" Ladybug says while she stares sadly at the edge of the roof

"I didn't think I would need it tonight." "Well I think you do." "Are you ok, you don't look so good." "Honestly no I'm not." "Is there anything I can do?" "Yeah actually, you could listen." "I'd do anything for you milady your Purr-fect" Chat Noir puts his arm around Ladybug and she leaves it there "Thank you for always being so Paw-sitive kitty." "Your welcome, now tell me, what happened today?" "Well this morning was fine, but this afternoon was not." Ladybug was looking at Chat Noir apprehensively

"Please continue, you're safe with me." He encourages "Ok, this afternoon after school I asked out a guy."

"Wait hold up, you have a crush on some guy, who is this lucky guy?" "Well he is apparently not lucky, because he didn't answer, which totally crushed my dreams, and I don't think he cares." "Yeah, that I can relate to." "Really, how?"

"Well you see the reason I came here tonight is well, I was hoping to tell you something." "Spit out that hairball then, come on." "Ok well I'm uh … in love with a girl, but I can't seem to tell her."

"Oh I see, did you maybe try writing to her, or maybe singing, drawing, or something else." "Not really, but I did write her a poem once and she finished it." "Thats good, did she know the poem was from you?" "I don't know, I think she thought it was from someone else." "Well try again, and this time sign it."

"You milady sound like you're talking from experience." "I am" "Did you write a poem for someone too?" "Kind of, the funny thing is I finished a poem that I thought was from the guy I liked." "Let me guess you forgot to sign it." "Correct, that was so disappointing, now I'm pretty sure that guy hates me." "I need to know who this guy is, he must have broken your heart."

"He did, but I wouldn't want him getting hurt." "What makes you think I would hurt him." "How about your tone of voice." Ladybug laughs at Chat Noir's confused expression

"Its natural for me to be protective milady." "There is nothing you need to protect me from my little kitty." "Well I can still try to heal your heart." "I suppose you can."

"So who is he?" "Ok if I tell you, promise to tell no one." "I promise." "His name is … Adrien Agreste." Chat Noir tries to not fall off the roof from surprise "What!"

"Chat Noir! Why do you sound so surprised?" "Um, no reason, I just know him, thats all" "Ok whatever, just don't tell anyone." "Ok I won't, good night milady" "Wait Chat, wait just a second." Ladybug grabs his arm and pulls him back to sitting position, then she leans over and whispers in his ear "Thank you." "what do you mean?"

"For listening, for being there, thank you for everything." She then leans forward and hugs him tightly, holding him firmly. Chat Noir hugs her back, enjoying every moment of it. Finally she loosens her grip, but Chat Noir doesn't. He puts his face directly in front of hers and says "I .… I ….." Ladybug kisses him on the cheek before he can finish and escapes from his grasp. Chat Noir savors the kiss for a second then makes his way home.

"Claws in" Adrien plops onto his bed and sighs dreamily "She kissed me Plagg, and she loved me, until apparently I broke her heart." "How did you manage to do that in one day?" Plagg asks confused and tired

"Ladybug is Matinette" "Wait just a minute, you're not supposed to know!" "She doesn't know that I know her true identity, but she gave it away." "How and why would she do that?"

"Well I was asking her about her horrible day and she started talking about the guy she had a crush on until he broke her heart, well she said that guy was Adrien Agreste, me" "I see well, how are you going to go about this?" "I really want to keep a relationship with her, but she probably hates me when I'm Adrien, and I don't really know what she thinks of Chat Noir." "You could maybe tell her that you were just surprised that such a pretty girl asked you out, flattery always works." "Maybe, but I think I should tell her who I am."

"No! Your not supposed to tell anyone, plus then she may never love you again." "I know, but it just seems wrong not to tell her, especially after last night." "Whatever, if you're not going to listen to me don't ask me questions." "Fine Plagg, I'll do what you said, now go eat your Camembert!"

Ladybug knew that Chat Noir wanted to say something, and she also knew that he had lied about Adrien Agreste. She suspected that he knew more about Adrien then he let on. Ladybug was suspicious, sure, but she was also kind of happy. She had given Chat Noir a kiss, not on the lips, but it was still a kiss, and he had not rejected her. Ladybug thought that maybe Chat Noir and her could become more than just friends. She needed something to help her move on from Adrien. She couldn't wait for the next time she would see Chat Noir, but she knew she should be careful. For a long time superhero fans had been trying to portray Ladybug and Chat Noir as a couple, and now that it was coming true there would be a lot of news coverage. Then and there Ladybug decided to keep their relationship a secret.

"Spots off!" She turned back into Marinette and walked into the bakery and up to her room. "So you finally realized how much Chat Noir cares for you." Says Tikki "Yeah I did, and I'm grateful to him, he is always there for me." "Finally!" Tikki says smiling

"Tikki! What do you mean finally." "Well let's just say Chat Noir has had a crush on you since the beginning." "What are you saying Tikki?" "I'm saying he'd do anything for you, he deserves you." "Wow Tikki how long have you thought this?""Oh, I don't know, but I'm happy for you two."

"Thanks Tikki." "Did you kiss him?" "Tikki!" "Sorry, to far, I just wanted to know."

"I did, well not exactly, you see I kissed him on the cheek." "Its a start, but I know you can do better." "Tikki sometimes I wonder what goes on in that Kwami brain of yours."

The next day Marinette went confidently to school smiling the whole way. When she sat in class she made sure to ignore Adrien and greeted Alya enthusiastically. "Heh girl, whats going on, why are you so happy?" Alya Asks her "Let's just say last night went well." "Ooo, did you get with Adrien officially?" "No, that went horribly" "Ok, so then why are you happy." "Well I realized someone who is usually just a friend cared about me enough to help me get over Adrien."

"Oh, usually just a friend huh, what changed?" "Well I thanked him for always being there, and I may have kissed him." Alya elbowed Marinette affectionately "Kissed him for how long?" "Alya! I just kissed him on the cheek" "Ok, ok, don't kill me." Alya and Marinette smiled at each other and sat down.

AN: I hope you enjoyed! Please review, and feel free to tell me what you want me to include in future chapters.

P.S. My favorite thing about this chapter was that Tikki ships Chat Noir & Ladybug(urgurgh, I know this is bad, but hey, it is my first story)
