Okay, second try with this story idea. I've liked these stories for a while but whenever I tried to write one it turned out to be ugly and I took it down. So, let's try it again, shall we? I love feedback, but make it constructive, please. It's a watch their show fic.

Read on, my dudes.

-Ballet by Night

-Marinette Dupain-Cheng-

Marinette woke up groggily, looking for her phone. It was stuck under the covers, and she pulled it out, looking at the time... it was 8:23. She had 20 minutes to get ready!

Marinette rushed around her room, doing nothing but panicking, as usual. She found her pants and shirt and slid them on, brushing her teeth while Tikki pulled back her hair into pigtails. Marinette slid on her jacket and shoes, grabbed her bags (which Tikki flew into), and rushed downstairs.

"Marinette, you've gotta stop waking up so late! Are you having trouble sleeping?" Sabine asks her daughter.

"No, maman. I'll try to get to bed earlier tonight." Marinette promised and grabbed a croissant. She kissed her mother and father goodbye and rushed out the bakery, hoping to get to school on time.

Marinette dashed to the classroom, making it in the door mere seconds before the bell rang, and Alya smirked at her friend.

"You actually made it to school on time, girl. I'm so proud." Alya says to her friend as she sits down.

"I know, right!?" Marinette laughed with her friend.

-Nathanael Kurtzburg-

Nathanael wasn't having nearly as good of a morning. He spilled coffee on himself, forgot his homework, and now Chloe was looking at his designs.

"So, you just draw people?" Chloe asks. Nathanael just nods in response. Chloe flipped through the pages, completely unaware of Nathanael's discomfort. "Oh my gosh, Nathanael, do you have a crush on Marinette?"

There is was. what Nathanael knew was going to happen. Chloe had just blatantly revealed his crush, in front of his crush. Nathanael quickly gathered his things and ran out of the classroom, leaving everyone gaping at his response and quick exit.

"Jeez, someone's jumpy." Chloe muttered, walking back to her seat.

-Marinette Dupain-Cheng-

Marinette, although knowing already that Nathanael had a crush on her, felt bad for him. He was just humiliated by Chloe, that stings. It's happened to her more times than not. Class started, and Mme. Bustier was talking about Shakespeare and Romeo and Juliet. Marinette mostly tuned out Mme. Bustier, having learned a lot about Romeo and Juliet from an akuma. The akuma was an actor that had been fired from a play of Romeo and Juliet, so Marinette knew all of the information already.

Suddenly, there was a burst of light coming from the hallway, and an akumatized Nathanael burst through the door.

"I am the Scoop, and I'm here to reveal things for you!" Nathanael says, floating mid-air.

"What?" Marinette asks.

"Ah, Marinette. What I'm saying, albeit abnormal, is that I'm taking this whole class to a place where your secrets will be revealed." Nathanael says. "Except Mme. Bustier, who I think doesn't need to know our secrets."

Everyone looked at Nathanael curiously, and he just laughed.

"I'll show you." He says. He slammed his open sketchbook shut, causing a blinding white light to go around the room. Suddenly all the students were transferred into a room with a large screen in the front. A cinema. "Now that we're here, follow my directions. There are rows of chairs with your names on them. Sit in the chair with your name on it. No fighting about it, or I'll make you leave."

"Okay." A couple of people said, and they all sat down. The Scoop floated in front of the room, looking over people to make sure they sat in the right seats. The seats went:

Row 1: Max, Kim, Nino, Adrien, Marinette, Alya, Rose, Juleka

Row 2: Ivan, Mylene, Alix, Lila, Chloe, Sabrina, The Scoop (Nathanael)

Marinette, obviously, was freaking out that she was sitting next to Adrien. She kept her cool as much as she could. After all, there was an akuma right in front of her.

-Adrien Agreste-

Adrien didn't know how to feel about his seating arrangement. He was sitting next to Nino, which was awesome. But he also sat by Marinette, who he has decided hates him. Marinette hates him. He doesn't know why, but she hates him. He's tried to change that fact, but the more he tries, the more uncomfortable she gets.

However, he couldn't think about that. There was an akuma to deal with, one that he couldn't transform to defeat. Adrien looked over at Marinette, who now stood in Ladybug's fighting stance. Weird.

"The Scoop, I know you're upset over Chloe, but you need to stop this!" Marinette tells him. Adrien has to admit, she is looking a lot like Ladybug right now. No, not thoughts to be had right now. Adrien thought.

"The akuma's in his sketchbook!" Adrien tells her automatically, thinking like Chat Noir. The Scoop watched this whole ordeal, flying higher and higher towards the ceiling, knowing where this was going.

Marinette saw this and ran over to the wall, kicked off of it, and grabbed onto The Scoop's ankle, dragging him to the ground.

"Before I break this sketchbook and get the akuma in a jar, how do we get out of here?" Marinette asks.

"Miraculous Ladybug won't get you out of this one!" The Scoop tells her. "You need to watch every episode in every season in the show on the screen to escape. It's that simple, but Miraculous magic can't get you out, since it's made from Miraculous Magic."

"So we just... watch tv?" Adrien asks, confused.

"Yeah." The Scoop replies. Marinette looks around the room, she found a bowl. Though it was meant to hold popcorn, this would do. Marinette ran over to a table with snacks on it and tore the sketchbook in half. An akuma popped out, and was immediately trapped under the popcorn bowl.

"There, that's taken care of." Marinette sighs. "Nathanael, are you okay?"

"Just fine, thank you Marinette." Nathanael says, taking a seat.

-Marinette Dupain-Cheng-

The whole akuma deal was taken care of, but they still had to escape. Tikki was tugging on her handbag aggressively.

"What, Tikki?" Marinette asks.

"I have a horrible feeling about this. Your identity will be revealed in this show." Tikki informs. Marinette went pale.

"It's the only escape." Marinette mutters.

"This can't be good." Tikki says.

The students around her were freaking out as well. They were all scared and confused.

"Everyone, listen up!" Marinette shouts. She could control this, she was class rep after all. "We are required to watch this show to leave, so we'll do just that. Just by looking around, the remote's on the table. I'll control the remote, okay? Next, there are snacks on that table over there. Do not move the bowl that is covering the akuma, or you just might die, okay? Finally, the bathrooms are in the back, and are labelled. There shouldn't be any other problems, so let's just get started."

People nod in agreement. Alya looked proud of her, and Adrien just looked anxious. Almost as anxious as she felt.

Marinette sat down in her seat, grabbed the remote, and pressed play on episode 1, Copycat.

I think this ran pretty smooth, constructive criticism is welcome. Please review, it makes me smile!
