Adrien Agreste cared about Marinette, but he couldn't help it. He was totally, utterly, completely in love with Ladybug.
He had fallen for her ever since, since she fell on him. Much like when she slammed into him, as soon as he saw her, he knew he was toast. The first Akuma. The first battle. She had been uncertain, but so brave. She was afraid, but she fought for the same stuff he did.
She fought for liberty, equality, fraternity, and peace.
She wasn't a far off, distant hero. He worked with her on a daily basis. The highlight of his day was with her. She was his partner. His best friend. His everything.
She was bold, confident, beautiful, brave. She was perfect.
She was like the sun.
But somehow, in some way, she wasn't the only one.
In an unknown, unforseen, unexplainable sequence of events, Adrien had fallen again. And this time, it had been a slow series of tripping and getting back up before immediately going down the same hole, but each time it got deeper.
Eventually he had fallen into a pit.
A pit of denial. Because he loved Ladybug
But whether he denied it or not, he had fallen for the second time in his life, and it wasn't for Ladybug
...
Marinette was the best friend anyone could ask for.
She was kind, caring, and stood up for what she believed in.
When Adrien first met her, due to misunderstanding, they hadn't gotten along, but pretty soon, they were friends.
Marinette was a good friend.
She wasn't his best friend like Nino, but she was more of a friend than Alya.
She may have been shy and quiet, but she was sweet.
Her stuttering was kinda cute.
When Adrien really thought about it, she was kinda cute in general.
Marinette was cute. Whoa.
Adrien wiped the thoughts from his mind.
Adrien loved Ladybug, but Marinette was a great friend.
...
Ladybug was the yin to his yang
The creation to his destruction
The luck to his bad luck.
She was Ladybug and he was Chat Noir
...
Marinette was a wonderful person.
She was great at writing essays, while Adrien was good at Math
They were perfect study-buddies.
They worked so well together, kinda like Ladybug and Chat Noir.
Marinette was more than a friend.
Adrien shook his head. He loved ladybug.
...
Ladybug didn't get his puns. She didn't always understand that they were a coping mechanism. He couldn't explain, that his mom was gone, be didn't have a supportive family, or much of a family at all that he always had to do stuff, he just couldn't talk to her about that stuff.
...
Marinette always laughed at her puns. It was like she understood. She was always sensitive and sympathetic. She was late and too busy to do homework. She was just like Adrien
...
Ladybug was the best partner for fighting crime.
...
Marinette was the best partner for playing video games
...
Ladybug was his sun
But, whether Adrien liked it or not
Marinette Dupain-Cheng, the shy, short, cute girl who sat begin him in class was his moon
