Adrien and his Girl Problems- Chapter one
Hey!
Nice to see you all again! How long has it been? A few months? Wow, I really have been a bit absent… Sorry about that. Anyway, to those of you who are wondering, James' Revenge will be updated and completed soon.
Well, this is my first Miraculous Ladybug fanfiction that is being posted on this site! It is also on my AO3 account as well as some other Miraculous Ladybug ones for anyone who is interested in reading more.
Enjoy!
Disclaimer: Nope, I do not own Miraculous Ladybug or anything.
…
Marinette was confused. One moment she was Ladybug, standing near the latest villain preparing to grab the akuma, and the next she had moved and was standing over by a building. She blinked, confused, then looked up and did a double take. She could see herself - Ladybug - looking just as baffled as she felt and the akuma smirking next her.
She looked down at herself and gasped. She was dressed in black leather, a small bell around her neck. She was Chat Noir…
She gaped at the Ladybug figure standing near the villain. If she was now Chat Noir, then he must be her as well. Her shock only lasted a second as she realized they still needed to take down the akuma. "Chat Noir! Grab the picture and break it before he can get up again!" She called to him and he nodded and quickly jumped into action.
The villain struggled to get up but Ladybug's yoyo was still binding him. Chat Noir leaped at him and grabbed the picture from his pocket. He ripped it in half and the black butterfly flitted out. "Ladybug! What am I supposed to do now?!" Chat yelled.
She had already reached him at that point and she grabbed her yoyo trying to activate it to catch the akuma. It didn't open and she looked up at him, frowning. "It's not working for me. You try it." She said.
Chat took the yoyo from her and drew his finger down the middle. To his surprise, it opened so he flung it at the rapidly escaping akuma, trying to copy what Ladybug usually did. It worked and the butterfly was cleansed. He let the butterfly go and it flew away. A middle aged man sat on the pavement looking around. Chat turned to the real Ladybug and smirked. She rolled her eyes (well, technically they were his). "You've got to throw the Lucky Charm up into the air now so everything can return to normal. I think we're the only ones who got hit by this akuma, thankfully." She told him.
Chat chucked the clamp in the air, winked at Ladybug and yelled, "Miraculous Ladybug!"
The two stood together as they watched the swarm of tiny ladybugs fly around, righting all the damage done by the akumatized villain. When they had finally finished, Ladybug peeked over at Chat Noir then jumped back in surprise. Chat Noir turned to look at her and he seemed equally shocked. "Y-you're still me." She said.
"And you're still me. But don't worry M'lady, you still look divine like that too." Chat said, winking at her cheekily.
Marinette just glared at him. She was unused to watching her own face talk and communicate to her. It was an extremely strange feeling. "I don't understand. The Lucky Charm should have turned us back to normal."
Chat shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe because I did it, not you."
"But you are me so it should have worked!"
Ladybug was starting to get panicky. She didn't want to stay as Chat forever! Chat noticed this and put a hand on her shoulder while also wondering when he got so tall. "Let's go over there away from the crowds and sort this out." He suggested and she nodded.
He took her arm and pulled her into a nearby deserted alley. "So-" she started to say but her cut her off.
"I think we'll have to reveal our identities to each other." He said quickly.
"What?" She asked, looking down at him in surprise. "Why?"
"Well unless we can figure out a way to get back to our own bodies in two minutes, then we'll have to reveal ourselves. Our miraculous' will run out soon."
"Oh." She said. "You're right…"
Chat smirked at her. "I'm always right M'lady."
She sighed. "Well my earrings only have one spot left so you're about to change back." Ladybug said just as there was a flash of light and she found herself looking into her own face. Gosh, had she always been that short?
Tikki flew out and landed in Chat's hands. She smiled up at him. "Don't worry, I know what happened. You don't need to explain it to me." She said.
Chat turned to Ladybug. "Is this your kwami?" He asked.
Ladybug nodded. "Yes. Her name's Tikki." She said and Tikki waved at him.
"She's cute. Much cuter than mine." Chat said.
She giggled as the ring on her finger beeped for the last time and she felt herself being untransformed. She looked down at herself but she couldn't tell who she was. Chat coughed. "Well it might be best if we find a mirror or something so we actually know who we are. Unless you want to just say it."
Marinette nodded again. That would be a good idea. "Come on." She told Chat, grabbing his arm and pulling him out of the alley.
"What about me?" A black kwami flew up into her face. "I need food!"
Chat sighed. "This is Plagg." He told Marinette. "He's my kwami. Plagg, you can wait. We'll get you some food afterwards. We have to find a mirror first."
The two walked out onto the streets and wandered down it until Marinette spotted a clothing store. She pulled Chat into it. "Um M'lady, what are we doing here?" He asked her.
Marinette grabbed a couple of shirts off a rack nearby and shoved them into his hands before pushing him into a dressing room. "There are mirrors in there." She explained.
"Well what's the clothes for?"
"So we don't look suspicious."
"Oh." He said.
Marinette stepped into the dressing room as well and closed the door behind her. Next to her, Chat was already staring at the mirror on the opposite wall. Marinette glanced at it as well and her heart nearly stopped.
Adrien.
She was Adrien Agreste. Chat Noir was Adrien. She gaped at herself in the mirror and suddenly became aware of Adrien looking at her and she realized she was still trying to draw air into her lungs. She let it out again before she fainted from too much oxygen. Turning to Adrien, her eyes wide, she gasped out. "Y-you're Adrien."
"Um yeah. And you're Marinette."
"Yeah." Marinette whispered, still in shock.
"This is great though! I really do know my lady in civilian life, then! And you were so insistent that we didn't know each other." Adrien said happily.
"Whatever." Marinette muttered. "The question is, what do we do now? We can't stay like this forever."
"Well since it's getting late we should probably head home. We can talk about this whole mess in the morning."
"Ok."
The two headed out of the cramped changing room and started walking home. Adrien turned left, starting to head to his house when Marinette stopped him. "Um Adrien?" She asked and he stopped and looked up at her questionably. "Won't it be weird if you go to your house looking like me?" She pointed out.
Adrien blinked. Oh yeah. It would be weird. His father would be suspicious. "You're right. So you go to my house instead and I go to yours."
Marinette's eyes widened at his words but she nodded her head anyway. "O-ok. See you in the m-morning then." She said nervously.
Adrien smiled at her. "See you then. And Marinette?" He asked and she paused and looked at him. "I'm glad it was you." He said smiling, then turned and walked away to her bakery.
Marinette stood on the path, staring at him with eyes wide. "I'm glad it was you too." She whispered finally before heading to his mansion.
"Oh boy." Plagg said, floating up to her shoulder. "This will be fun."
…
Thanks to Ash the DragonGuardian for giving me this idea! Mind you, she practically forced me to write it when she told me the idea, but oh well. Thanks to her anyway!
Hope you enjoyed this story, I'll have more to come for this definitely.
We'll definitely be making Adrien suffer. Heh heh heh…
