21 days. 21 days! That's how long Mari, Alya, Nino, and MOST IMPORTANTLY ADRIEN were going to be staying at Marinette's beach house.

The worst/ best part: They'd be alone. Marinette's, Alya's and Nino's parents were all going to have some sort of spa retreat, not too far from the beach house.

Marinette, of course, had spent over 5 hours packing for this trip.

"Ughh! Tikki! I need help!" Marinette cried, holding up a Chat Noir themed bikini that she had made herself.

"Is this too revealing?"

Tikki sighed. "No it's not! Have you seen Chloe's bikinis? There literally strings." Tikki exclaimed. Marinette smiled and spent the next hour asking Tikki which bikini to bring. Finally packing her bathing wear, she now had 4/5s of the bag left.

Next, she put in the essentials: bathroom stuff, shower stuff, Sunblock, etc. Now she had ½ of the bag left. It was a ginormous bag.

She packed her everyday clothes, along with a couple of nice dresses for the beach and 2 fancy ones. She had just folded and packed her first pair of pjs when the screaming started.

It took 5 seconds for Marinette to realize it was an akuma and she transformed.

45 five minutes later, Ladybug ran into an alley to detransform and get home. The minute she walked in the bakery, her mother pounced.

"Marinette! I need our help!" Her mother called. Marinette obligingly complied and did what her other asked.

6 batches of cookies, 2 cakes, 2 dozen cupcakes, and 3 pies later, Alya walked in.

"Hey girl! You ready?" She asked. Marinette nodded, forgetting about her leftover pjs and brought Alya upstairs to help her. She quickly zipped the bag, took her purse with Tikki munching on cookies inside, and had Alya help her take her bag downstairs and into the trailer. Nino was waiting there, helping Marinette's mother load the pastries.

"Wow! You certainly out did yourself, Mari. We'll be stocked for weeks." Nino said. Marinette grinned.

"I couldn't disappoint you. Afterall, Alya might have killed me if I didn't." She said, cheekily, earning a playful glare from Alya. Nino got in the front seat, Alya in the passenger, and Marinette in the back, sprawled out, reading a book.

15 minutes. That's how long it took Nino and Alya to start fighting.

"Change the song, would you Al!" Nino said, tired of hearing the same song for 15 minutes.

"What? Do you not like my taste of music?" Alya asked, offended.

"Of course I do, but you've been playing this song nonstop. Please change it."

"No! I really like this song!"

"If I have to listen to it one more time, I will throw your phone out the window."

"HOW DARE YOU THREATEN MY PHONE!"

Nino turned to Alya.

"Please just change the song."

"Watch out!" Marinette shouted. Nino looked ahead and swerved right to avoid hitting a pedestrian.

"Nice going, DJ."

"Look. All I'm asking is for you to change the song.:

"Why should I?"

"I'm driving, so please do me a favor and change the song."

"Are you KIDDING me? NO!"

It went on like this for the rest of the way to Adrien's house. Right before Nino turned into his driveway, Marinette cracked.

"ENOUGH! Nino, pull over onto that driveway! Alya, I don't care what you threaten to tell Adrien, I'm taking the music rights too. And If I'm going to listen to some weird anime music, deal with it." Marinette shouted, cranky.

She didn't know that they were there or that Adrien had heard the whole thing. Still not noticing Adrien, she got out of the van and yanked open Nino's door.

Angry, she literally picked up Nino and plopped him outside the trailer.

"I'm driving and I'm in charge of the music." She said in a calm-mad sort of way. To be honest, it was kinda scary. She got in and slammed the door shut, muttering angrily as she waited for Nino to get in. After 1 minute, she was fuming.

"What the hell is taking him so long?" She growled. Then Adrien popped inside and Marinette shrieked.

"WHAT THE- How did you get here?" She screamed. Confused, Adrien froze.

"Ummm…. You are parked outside my house… You do know that, right?" He said.

Marinette looked out of Alya's window and internally died.

"When did we get here? Wait! Did you hear any of what I said?" She asked.

"Yeah." Adrien said. Trying not to turn tomato red, she nodded and turned forward.

"NINO! HURRY UP!" She hollered, making Alya winced.

"Sorry. Could you speak a bit louder?" Alya asked.

Marinette smirked, tapping into her inner Ladybug.

"Are you sure?" She asked, taking in a deep breath.

"No! Just drive." Marinette complied. She eased out on the road and put on her driving playlist. Senbonzakura started to fill the vehicle. Adrien was literally dancing with joy.

Five minutes later, Marinette received a call.

"Hello?" She said. "Hey Marinette. It's Nino. You, um, kinda left me behind…" Nino trailed off. Marinette's eyes popped out of her head as she made a sharp turn that threw Adrien off his seat.

"Hey!"

"Sorry!"

When they arrived, Nino took up driving again and Marinette was assigned to the back. At least she got to keep her music. She leaned over the back row to get on of the boxes of pastries in the back.

"Cookies anyone?" She asked after opening it. Adrien immediately stuck out his hand.

"Give as many as you'd like." He said. Marinette blushed and gave him three. He inhaled them and asked for more.

"God! These are heavenly! Thanks so much Mari!" Marinette blushed even more.

"Y-y-we-uh-welcome you. NO! You're welcome!"

Alya smirked inside. They were smirking a lot.

Throughout the entire ride, they went through 3 dozen cookies, not counting Tikki. She had her own dozen.

Marinette had eventually fallen asleep across from a softly snoring Adrien. Alya knew an opportunity when she saw one and quickly took her chance. She quickly climbed over to where Marinette and Adrien were sleeping.

She moved Adrien so he lying down on his back. She then took Marinette, who was surprisingly kinda heavy, and put her on top of him, facing down.

"Perfect!" She whispered, admiring her handywork.

An hour later, they had arrived. Adrien's arms were wrapped around Marinette's tiny waist and her arms were wrapped around his torso. Her head was resting on his chest. Alya snapped a few pics before waking them up.

"I already woke up." Marinette murmured. "Yeah, but we're here and if you want to get the best room, you better hurry up."

"Later." Adrien started stirring.

"Huh?" He asked when he found Mari on top of him. Most importantly, his arms were wrapped around her waist. Blushing hard, he quickly took back his arms and tried to sit up. Unfortunately, her arms tightened around his torso.

"Umm… Marinette? Are you awake?" He asked as he gently shook her.

"No."

Alya smirked and bent forward.

"How's your pillow?" She asked.

"It's very warm and I never want to get up. I keep it forever." She murmured.

Adrien's blush intensified, if that's possible.

"Guess what?" Alya exclaimed.

"What?"

"Your so-called pillow is actually Adrien."

"Whaaaaat?" She yelled, bolting upright. Her current position prevented her from doing that and she fell back onto Adrien. She quickly scrambled off of him and fell again, but on the floor this time.

Oh, she was never going to live this down.

"Nino, Adrien. Your room is right here. If you need anything, just ask me. Alya and I will be sleeping down there." Marinate said, pointing at her room. She couldn't look Adrien in the eye.

Nino and Adrien thanked her and started unpacking.

Alya and Marinette started to do the same. Marinette was mortified. What had she done? Adrien probably hated her.

"Relax girl. Just act normal and they'll forget about it." Alya said, knowing her friend all to well.

"Ok." Mari said, hoping that is was that easy. Well. She actually had a plan. It would be fun. She just needed Trixx and Tikki to be on board.

"Trixx, Tikki. I need a favor and it's right up your alley. Can you..."
