Love is...not something that you feel, but something that you do.


Adrien smiled to himself. Today was the anniversary of him and Marinette's first date and he wanted to make it feel magical. They had learned that both of them had a crush with each other in both their superhero and regular teen forms. Accepting the fact they fight well and do well together, Adrien was racking his brain on the perfect gift to give to her. Pacing around his room, he tried to think of the perfect gift.

"What do you give a charming girl like her?" He asked Plagg, his kwami partner.

Plagg looked up from the cheese he was eating and gave him a teasing look. "This is Marinette we're talking about right? Anything you give her, she's bound to love."

"That's the problem! She amazing, smart, cute, funny..." His voice trailed as he saw the look Plagg gave him. "Don't give me that look! She's just a very hard person to give a gift too!"

"Why don't you just make her something then? They say a gift from the heart is better than anything from a store." He had a point.

Adrien looked at his kwami friend and grinned. "That's it Plagg! I know exactly what I'm going to give Marinette!"


Meanwhile Marinette was having a similar problem. She was writing in her diary a list of possible ideas to do.

"What do you give to a handsome guy like him?" She asked Tikki, her kwami partner.

"Marinette you're thinking too hard. Adrien loves anything you do and anything you give him." Tikki assured the blue haired girl.

"Yeah, but Adrien is probably expecting this extravagant gift for our anniversary. I'm broke and I don't know if I can make something in time." She chewed on her pencil eraser. "What if he doesn't like what I give him? What if he breaks up with me after seeing it? What if-"

"MARINETTE!" She stopped worrying to see her partner giving her a look. "Now you need to stop panicking and start thinking positive. You know him enough to know what he might like." She patted the bluenette's head. "Now start using your brain and create something amazing."

"Something amazing? That's it Tikki!" Marinette furiously sketched in her diary. "I know exactly what to give Adrien!


Later that night Marinette walked around the park, looking for Adrien. A gift wrapped in black and tied with a green ribbon was in her hands. Her face was on full blush mode as her eyes scanned the area.

Adrien was also in the park, looking for Marinette. A gift wrapped in red and tied with a black ribbon was in his hands. His face was heated up as he tried to find her.

I hope he likes his gift.

I hope she likes her gift.

They both stopped walking, both of them facing each other in the middle of the park. They saw how their faces looked and smiled. Walking slowly, their gazes never wavering, they approached each other.

"Happy Anniversary Adrien." Marinette said, holding out her gift.

"Happy Anniversary Marinette." Adrien said, holding out his gift.

They both exchanged gifts and gently opened them up. Marinette gasped as she took out a beautiful necklace with a ladybug on the end. In it were words that said, Your my Lucky Charm.

Adrien smiled as he took out a knitted black hat with cat ears. Inside, sewn on the top were the words For my Black Cat.

"It's wonderful." They both said, admiring each others gifts.

Adrien immediately put his hat on and cracked a smile. "So how do I look Miladybug?"

Marinette laughed. "You look perfect Kitty Cat." She adjusted his hat. "Can you help me put my necklace on?"

"I'd be delighted too." He took the necklace out of her hand and wrapped it around her neck. She touched the ladybug and placed it over her heart. Turning around, they gazed in each others eyes once more before leaning in for a kiss.

Their eyes closed in pure delight.
