It's been 2 years ever since Adrien Agreste and Marinette Dupain-Cheng have met. They have grown into good friends. Marinette does not stammer as much as she did when she first met him, and does feel more comfortable around him, but she still has feelings for him. The same goes for Adrien, he feels that she is a good friend. Still, Ladybug and Cat Noir have not come any closer to finding out where Hawk Moth is located and who he really is. Cat Noir has also not come any closer to winning Ladybug's affections, but is definitely wearing her down. He still believes that its only a 'matter of time'. This may be true, but first, you need to read this story...
"I hate Science!" Marinette mumbled to herself in her room, Tikki sitting next to the 1st problem.
"Come on Marinette! Just try to remember the atomic number! You can do it!" Tikki encouraged her friend.
She giggled at her kwami's enthusiasm. "How did you become so adorable?" she gushed, giving Tikki a tiny hug around Marinette's cheek.
"I don't know, Ladybug luck?" she smiled.
"I wish that luck would help in my homework!" Marinette groaned as she stared at the problem. She chewed the end of her pencil, her brain pulsing. "Gah!" she threw the pencil up in frustration, reaching for her science book. Tikki floated over and sat on the book.
"No, Marinette! You have to figure it out for yourself!" Tikki exclaimed.
Marinette sighed and tried to remember the atomic number for Nitrogen. "7...?"
Tikki peeked inside the textbook, looking at Marinette with a proud grin. "Correct! Great job Marinette!"
Marinette gave her a tiny high-five, making Tikki fly across the room, hitting a pillow on her small couch. "Hey!"
"Sorry!" Marinette giggled. "That reminds me, I need to work on my Newton's Laws project!" Marinette put the homework away and pulled out her project folder, filled with notes and project design ideas. Marinette sighed and rolled her eyes, putting the folder away.
"I thought you were gonna work on the project?" Tikki questioned Marinette.
"I just don't feel like doing it…," Marinette counter-argued. Tikki sighed and looked at the digital clock on Marinette's desk.
"Marinette, it's almost 12:00 am!" Tikki exclaimed.
"What?!" Marinette exclaimed, falling backwards on her chair before looking at the clock. "My parents are gonna kill me if they find out that I'm still up!"
"Then you need to go to bed!" Tikki giggled.
Marinette quickly put on her pjs and went to bed, watching the room envelop her in darkness as her eyes grew heavy.
"Morning Marinette!" Tikki exclaimed, pulling Marinette's eyes open.
"Tikki… five more minutes…" Marinette moaned.
"Ok.. five less minutes you get looking at Adrien," Tikki teased.
"Huh?" Marinette questioned, looking at the clock next to her bed. "It's only…8:48!" Marinette exclaimed, quickly getting ready for school and running down her steps to her parents. "Hi mama!"
Sabine looked at her daughter and smiled, giving her a blueberry muffin. "You need to hurry! You're going to be late," she said, giving Marinette a small peck on her cheek.
"Bye!" Marinette ran out the door, passing her father, Tom, in the bakery.
"See you, Marinette!" Tom said.
"Bye, papa!" Marinette threw a goodbye behind her back, rushing out the bakery door.
Marinette ran to the school, hearing the bell ring as she ran up the front steps.
"Ow! Ow! Oww!" Tikki yelped at Marinette ran in.
"Sorry Tikki! I'm in a bit of a rush!" Marinette apologised to her bag.
"Try to run a bit softer while running!" Tikki complained. Marinette sighed and ran into the classroom, panting at the door. Alya looked at her friend curiously.
"..and that is how you create a report with only the school library," Ms. Bustier finished. "Now, I bet you are all wondering why I am teaching you this instead of asking Ms. Marinette why she is late again…" Ms. Bustier looked at Marinette, who slunk to her seat quietly. "Now that the whole class is here… I will now explain what your next project will be. I want everyone to go around the perimeter of the classroom, but start in the back."
Everyone organized themselves by Ms. Bustier's command, leaving Chloe next to Marinette. Chloe scoffed at the blue-haired girl and looked across the room at Adrien, winking and making kissy faces at him, making Adrien uncomfortable, rubbing his neck awkwardly. Nino, looked at his friend and patted his shoulder, making Adrien smile and look across the room at Marinette. Marinette looked at him and waved at him softly, blushing. Adrien waved back, making Marinette's legs feel like jelly. Alya looked at her friend, sighing and shaking her head at her friend's total lack of her emotions.
"Now, the next project we will be doing is based on Paris' own superheros, Ladybug and Cat Noir!" the class started to mumble, talking about the superhero duo's latest adventures.
"I want everyone to write down on the piece of paper that I will be passing out on which superhero you want to write about and your name." Ms. Bustier passed out small slips of paper and pencils to the students for them to write on. "You will deposit your papers and pencils in this box and basket. She held out two containers about the same size with labels.
Marinette wrote down Ladybug on her paper, wrote her name on the back, and walked up to Ms. Bustier, depositing her paper and pencil. She watched the rest of the class write down and turn in their answers.
"Now, I will pair you all up with another student with the opposite superhero. This will be due on Friday." she reached into the box and pulled out a slip of paper. "Rose, who chose Cat Noir, will pair up with…" She pulled out another piece of paper. "Juleka, who chose Ladybug."
The two girls smiled and hugged each other, going to their respective seats.
"Next will be...Kim, who chose Ladybug…" Some of the class giggled at Kim's choice while Kim blushed. "And Alix, who chose Cat Noir." Alix and Kim looked at each other and shared a high-five, and went to sit down.
"Nathaniel, who chose Cat Noir, and Max, who chose Ladybug."
"Ivan, who chose Ladybug, and Myléne, who chose Cat Noir."
"Sabrina, who chose Cat Noir, and… Chloe, who chose Ladybug."
"No!" someone screamed. Everyone turned their heads to the source, which was none other than Chloe.
"W-what's the matter Chloe?" Sabrina asked Chloe nervously. "D-don't you want to work on the project together?"
"As much as I want to...I have to be partners with Adrien!" Chloe screamed, stomping her feet furiously.
"Chloe, that kind of behavior is not suitable! Go to your seat!" Ms. Bustier exclaimed.
"Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!" Chloe complained as she stomped to her seat with Sabrina trailing close behind nervously.
"Thank you. Now, for the next pair." Ms. Bustier reached into the box and pulled out a piece of paper. "Nino, who chose Cat Noir, and… Alya, who chose Ladybug."
Marinette smiled for her friend as Alya sat down with Nino, not realizing that her and Adrien were the only ones left.
"Well, since Adrien and Marinette are the only ones left, I have no choice but to pair you two up," the teacher declared.
"What?!" Marinette and Chloe screamed, Chloe annoyed and Marinette surprised.
"She can't be partners with my Adrikins!" Chloe complained, throwing herself onto Adrien, hugging him while Adrien put his hands up, trying to push her away.
"Chloe! I demand that you go sit down, NOW!" Ms. Bustier pointed at Chloe's seat, anger fuming from her. Chloe slunk back to her seat, mumbling to herself. Marinette heard words like Adrikins and ridiculous.
During all of the commotion, Marinette forgot to go back to her seat. She stood there in shock at Chloe's tantrum. Alya grabbed her friend's wrist and dragged her to her seat.
"Girl, did that just happen?!" Alya exclaimed.
"W-what?" Marinette asked her friend, confused.
"Sometimes, I just don't believe you...you just got partnered with Adrien!" Alya turned Marinette's head to the back of Adrien's. Marinette finally woke to reality and started blushing furiously, realizing that she was partnered with Adrien....
Marinette started daydreaming throughout the class, thinking about partnering up with the love of her life. When the bell rang, she realized that she drew hearts all over her notebook. Marnette blushed and closed the notebook. She started packing up when Adrien came up to Marinette, making her jump in surprise and hit her head on the desk with a loud thunk.
"Ouch!" Marinette started to rub her head.
"Marinette! Are you ok?" Adrien held his hand out to her, smiling nervously. "Sorry about that." Marinette looked up to his hand and took it, her face redder than the disguise she would wear. She got up with the help of Adrien and began to rub her head again.
"Is there something wrong Adrien?" Marinette asked.
"I just wanted to ask when we should work on the project. It's due on Friday." Adrien smiled.
"Well, how about todamrrow? Tomorday? Todamrrow? Ugg..." Marinette stammered, her face super red. Adrien looked at Marinette nervously. Marinette finally gained her composure and looked at Adrien. "How about today after school?" Marinette suggested.
"Ok. I'll meet you at your family's bakery."
"Ok." Marinette thought that her heart was going to pop. Adrien is coming...to my house…
