Autor Note: Well, this is my first Fanfiction! I recently got into the Miraculous Ladybug Fandom, and have been wanting to write something for this ever since. So, here it is! Please leave a review about the story, letting me know what you think about it and if you would want to see the second part of this. Without further ado, here's the story!
Marinette was in shock.
The revelation that had struck her mind in that moment was too much for her to act normal, so she excused herself from her friends, and without waiting for a response, she ran to her house as fast as she could.
She entered into the bakery, and after nervously greeting her room, the teenager stormed into her room, throwing herself into the bed and let a muffled scream into one of her pillows.
"Marinette, what's wrong?" asked Tikki, as she got out her friend's bag. "You seem extremely upset"
Marinette turned around, looking at the roof. "Everything Tikki, everything is wrong" she answered "I just don't know what to do now, I'm so confused"
The designer let a frustrated sigh. She got up and started to pace around the room with a concentrated expression. The kwami just stared at her in confusion. What the heck had happened? She had fallen asleep in the span of Marinette's last class and the moment she started running, making it no longer than an hour. What could have happened in that time that had freaked her out so much?
"Marinette, I'm sorry, but I don't understand a word of what you're saying. What it's going on?" The words of her little companion seemed to get the girl out of her trance, finally calming down and sitting in her desk. She opened her mouth and closed it again, still not processing the words she was about to say. After repeating the process several times, the girl finally spoke out:
"I think that Adrien is Chat Noir"
The kwami froze after hearing those words. The only thing in her mind being "Oh crap"
The little ladybug laughed nervously before speaking again "And what makes you think that?" "So many things Tikki" the raven-haired said "After Alya showed me the picture she photo shopped of him, the thought hasn't left my head. At first it was just a joke, I mean, they act so different! But then, the similarities started to come. It started with their appearance. They are the same height and have the same body types. They both have green eyes and blond hair. Their face is the same shape, and they have the same nose, etcetera." The teen sighed "But then, the personality traits started to be more noticeable. As soon as Adrien and I got closer, he started to act more and more like Chat. He started dropping puns and awful jokes into conversations, and the flirting attitude of Chat started to pop out too. And I started noticing Adrien's kindness and encouragement as Chat's regular personality. It just all kind of came together"
"And why did you just run away from school? Did something bad happen?"
"Nothing happen Tikki. I ran away because that was the moment when I realized that they were the same person. "After looking the kwami's interrogative look, she continued "After I told them I was leaving, Adrien grabbed my hand and kissed it. And then said 'See you soon my lady'. His face Tikki, if you had seen his face, you would understand. It was like Chat Noir was saying goodbye."
After hearing that, Tikki was pretty sure the boy had also figured out, but decided to say nothing. Instead, the kwami asked Marinette what she was planning to do.
"Honestly, I have absolutely no idea. I guess I should just tell him" "But Mari, what about you?" The designer looked at her confused. "What do you mean Tikki?" "Marinette, you know his identity, and you're going to let him know that you do, but, are you willing on let him know who you are?"
Marinette came back to her thinking phase. Was she? Was she really ready to tell her beloved partner AND her crush know who she was? What if he got disappointed? What if he laughed in her face? No, she corrected herself, he would never do that. But what if he did?
Doubt and concern filled the superhero's mind. Again, she stood up and started pacing around. In her mind, she was considering every possible scenario. The bad ones always ending with losing him. Just the thought of it happening made Marinette sick. Losing one of her best friend was Marinette's biggest fear, and if any of those scenes happened, well, she would be losing two.
But then she started to look in the good side of things. If this turned out, the relationship between the two superheroes would just become stronger. They would be able to talk to each other whenever they wanted to, help each other out and contact each other way easier. The connection would be amazing.
So there she was, with two possibilities on the table, and a big decision to make.
She gave a lot of thought and with a final sigh as she flopped on her bed, a path would be taken. "Tikki, I think I know"
Tikki smiled before asking her what was she going to do.
Marinette was opening her mouth, but her phone rang, showing the picture she had for Alya's contact. "Girl, what happened? You just left us there standing with no explanation." Was the first thing she heard after answering. "I, uh, remembered something and I had to go to the bakery" "Ok, I believe you." Said the blogger before adding "I was just calling to say I'm going to be late to your house today. There's an akuma in here and Ladybug and Chat Noir will be here any second" "An akuma?" the raven-haired asked. She had to go there "where are you?" "I'm at the ice cream store. Adrien, Nino and I went there after school. And something happened" Alya answered. Marinette could then hear something blowing up in the background, followed by a girl talking. "Well girl, I have to go, see you later!" and with that, Alya was gone.
Marinette turned to Tikki and said "Well, I guess you'll see soon. Tikki, Spots on!"
