HI again! So I've got a few people following this and thought: 'Hey! I can't sleep! Let's write more for the people who like this!' Also...I can't believe I spelt Adrien with 2 a's... Thanks to anyone that stumbles across this, love you all~
(ADRIEN'S P.O.V.)
This was a risky task; being Chat Noir in front of his peers with Adrian 'nowhere to be found'. However, Adrien had some Ladybug luck with him, as his pun-game was stronger than ever.
"If I'm being purrfectly honest, miss Alya, Ladybug is pawsitivley meow-nificent, even if she has a bit of a cattitude." Chat Noir gleamed at how many puns he'd managed to get into 1 sentence. The sea of groans that followed was an expected response after 20 minutes of his painful puns.
"Your puns are absolutely CLAW-ful," Marinette remarked as she walked into the foyer. This caught everyone's attention immediately. Alya, her best friend, had never heard Marinette crack out a pun so easily.
"Impressive, Marinette. I never knew you were this punny," Chat said as he stood from the small 'interviewing area'. He strolled his way over, taking no notice of Alya recording his every move. 'I never knew Marinette was so funny! She's always so shy and quiet around me,' Adrian thought to himself.
(MARINETTE'S P.O.V.)
Mouth slightly agape, Marinette stared at Chat; her eyes an entanglement of anger and curiosity. She was angry at Chat over this whole fiasco but curious as to his means. Despite her curiosity, she knew that Chat would only continue to draw attention to himself until he left. 'Aha! I know what to do…' she thought to herself. As he walked over to her, she gave a slightly mischievous look. A look that could only mean one thing. She was plotting something, or at least, she made it look that way to Chat. This made him slow down and come to a halt a few metres in front of her.
"I…uhh…" Chat mumbled. "I b-better get going now…err…see ya…" Marinette's plan had worked. That Cat was in for it tonight. Alya bounded towards Marinette before she could start thinking of what to do to Chat in patrol (a.n. NOT IN THAT WAY! Get your mind out of the gutter.).
"Girl, you scared that cat away faster than I can count to 3!" Alya laughed. Marinette agreed and giggled. "He definitely was a scaredy-cat!" The 2 friends burst into laughter and walked to their classroom. Soon after the bell rang for classes to start.
(STILL MARINETTE/LADYBUG'S P.O.V.)
Ladybug was waiting for Chat on top of the Eiffel tower – their normal meeting spot after patrolling their area. She was sitting on the edge of a balcony, her feet dangling over the streets below. Ladybug was growing impatient. Just as she was going to call Chat, he gracefully landed beside her. She patted the ground beside her. Chat graciously complied and joined Ladybug on the ground.
"So Chat," Ladybug started. "What was that whole…letting Aly…that girl interview you, hmm?" Chat's smile drooped at the corners.
"Well, you see…" Chat nervously looked down at his feet dangling off the edge. "I…I thought that…well maybe because…"
"Please get on with it, Chat," Ladybug droned, very unamused.
"Of course, sorry milady. Um…" Chat took a deep breath. "Ithoughtthatifyousawmedoingsomethingrecklessyou'dtellmewhoyouweretomakemestop," He blurted. Ladybug looked at him with a blank face. She hadn't understood a word of what Chat just said. "Could you please repeat that? But maybe a tad slower this time."
"Yes, of course, princess. I thought that… if you saw me being risky…that you might…y'know…drop some hints on who you were to stop me…" Chat didn't make any eye contact and kept his head down.
"Oh you silly kitty!" Ladybug chortled. "If you want, we can maybe talk a bit about our normal lives?" With that, the droopy cat perked his ears up and was as happy as a kitten!
"So, Chat…got anybody you liiiiike?" Teased Ladybug. Chat immediately turned a very bright red.
"I-I…um…well there's…eep!"
Lady burst out into laughter. "How about I go first then?" she said, wiping a tear from her eye.
"So there's this guy…and well…he's perfect. Almost every other girl has a crush on him too, though. So an average person like me wouldn't stand a chance!" She forced a laugh, but her sadness was obvious.
"How could any guy say no to you?! You're so beautiful!" Chat blurted out, then turned red again. "Erm…what I meant is…umm…what's his name?"
A slight blush came over Ladybug's face. "His name…is Adr-"
*BEEP BEEP*
"Oh my! I have to get going. Bye Chat, see you round." Ladybug said. She turned around and was gone before Chat could say goodbye. 'I can't believe I was about to tell Chat of all people that I, simple Marinette, liked Adrian Agrest. What was I thinking?' Marinette sighed to herself. She de-transformed just as she landed on her house rooftop.
"Tikki, what am I doing? As if Chat could help me anyway." Said Marinette, a bit disappointed.
"Oh, Marinette. I think you should just tell him who you like!" Tikki said, smiling at the teen.
"Maybe I will. One day."
Hey! So this was chapter 2! Hope you all liked it. It's definitely longer than chapter one :)
If you have anything you'd like to see in the story, feel free to tell me! There was less of Adrien's point of view, so maybe he'll get more specific sections in the future? ;) Thanks again for reading my story ^-^
