A/N: I wasn't planning on making a part two but I received a lot of positive feedback and requests for a second part. Part one was mainly centered around Marinette but this part will be focusing more on Adrien. This part is also a lot shorter than the last one. One last thing, I might (MIGHT) be writing a multichap story if anyone would be interested in that (I don't know what it would be about yet though). Let me know if you would! Anyways, I hope you enjoy!

"It's got to be her. It's got to be," Adrien Agreste had been repeating these lines for the past several hours. He was sitting on his bed with his head in his hands; his mind was racing with the events that occurred yesterday.

He left shortly after she did. Partially because he didn't want to be there as Chat Noir without Ladybug, but mostly because he was too distracted to think about or do anything else.

Marinette is Ladybug. Ladybug is Marinette.

How could he have not noticed it before? It took him a whole year just to find out that the girl he sits by in homeroom is also the girl he's been saving Paris with. But he wasn't too angry with himself for not noticing. More than anything, he was eccentric. He finally found out who's behind the mask. He finally found the girl he loved. But what if she didn't like him back? And what if it somehow wasn't her? He needed to be absolutely positive it was her before he said anything-if he said anything.

Knock-knock

"Are you ready to leave yet?" A voice called.

He was so captivated by his thoughts that he didn't notice the time. School was going to start soon and he wasn't even dressed yet. Adrien quickly ran to his closet to get dressed after shouting back a quick 'almost' to whomever had asked. After getting dressed, he quickly combed his hair and brushed his teeth then darted outside.

The ride to school was uneventful. Adrien just looked out the window like he usually did while trying to calm his thoughts. He knew that when he arrived he would have to talk to Marinette and hopefully he would be able to be sure she really is Ladybug. The limo stopped and Adrien climbed out. He noticed Nino standing by the doors.

"Hey, Adrien!" he shouted.

Adrien waved back and ran up the front steps to join his best friend. The two of them walked to class together and they were just about to enter the classroom when he saw her.

He froze where he was stood. Talking to Ladybug as Chat Noir was easy, so why was it suddenly so difficult to talk to Marinette? So instead of talking, he just watched.

She was talking to Alya, which was typical for her. Adrien noticed how comfortable and how happy she looked. Her eyes sparkled and her smile seemed to give off light.

"You okay?" a voice interrupted his thoughts. He turned his head to Nino, the source of the voice.

"Yeah just daydreaming I guess," Adrien answered. Before Nino could say anything else, the bell rang and the teacher walked in. The two of them took their seats. Adrien couldn't wait for class to end. He wanted to talk to Marinette as soon as possible.

His hopes were granted. Either the teacher had a short lesson that day, or time flew by because of his lack of attention. The bell that marked the end of class rang and students started to leave the classroom. He looked back to see Marinette still putting her books into her bag. It was now or never. "Marinette?"

She looked up at him-while knocking over a few books-and smiled. "H-hey Adrien," she stuttered.

"I uh-" he froze. He knew he had to talk to her, but what was he supposed to say? "Did you finish your Physics homework? We were supposed to have it done for today but she's giving us an extra day," he mentally face palmed himself. Of course Marinette would have her homework done, she was an excellent student!

"Actually no I don't have it done. I was going to do it yesterday but I ran out of time," she responded. She planned on doing it with Alya, but she had other plans tonight.

"Yeah same here," he said back. "Would you like to work on it with me?"

"W-with you?" she stumbled out.

"Only if you want to," Adrien replied.

"Yeah okay," she said "My place in an hour?"

"Sounds good," he agreed.

Marinette smiled and walked past him to leave to classroom. Adrien grabbed his stuff and left soon after. He knew how he was going to make sure she is Ladybug.


It was one hour later. Fear didn't begin to describe how Adrien was feeling. What if it's not her? What if she doesn't like him back? He just had to hope; there was no turning back. Adrien reached up to knock on the front door of the bakery her family owns. He hesitated for a moment before hitting his fist against it.

Her mother answered the door. She opened it wide and gestured for him to enter. "Marinette is in her room," her mother said with a warm smile on her face.

He smiled back. "Thank you," he said. Adrien walked across the room and gripped the staircase rail. He took a deep breath then walked up the stairs.

Marinette's room wasn't much different from the last time he'd been in it. A couple things were moved around, but other than that it was the same. Marinette was sitting at her desk when he entered. Her back was to him until she realized that he was there. She turned around to face him.

"Hi Adrien," she said while tucking a strand of loose hair behind her ear.

"Good afternoon," he said back. Marinette grabbed a nearby chair and pulled it next to her. She tapped the chair lightly, signaling for him to sit. He complied, walking across the room and taking the seat next to her. Her Physics book was open wide across the table on the pages that they had to do.

The two of them started working on the problems, solving them together to finish faster and more accurately. The entire time it was hard for Adrien to focus. He still managed to do the questions, but his mind kept wandering to the girl next to him. Marinette sighed and pushed herself away from the table. "I'm going to get us a snack," she announced while heading out of the room, leaving Adrien alone.

After he was sure she was gone, he quickly got out of his chair and walked to a different side of her room-to her closet. He put both hands on her door, ready to open it. He didn't want to invade her privacy, but this is the only way he could be sure it was her besides asking her. Adrien took a deep breath and pulled the door open. Sitting there, at the bottom of the closet, was a pair of black high heels. He inhaled sharply and slowly reached down, picking up one of the shoes. He held it in his hand for a moment, noticing the designs on the bottom that he recognized. These shoes were made by his father's company. They were a prize in an online design contest. But most importantly, there was only one pair of them, and Marinette and Ladybug had both been wearing them the night before. That proved it. Adrien knew what he had to do.

"Plagg?" he whispered. The kwami flew out of Adrien's bag and came up next to him.

"I already know I can't stop you," Plagg began, "but I better be getting some extra cheese for this."

"Anything you want," Adrien answered with his gaze still on the object in his hands. "Plagg, transform me!"

The transformation was much shorter than usual, Adrien didn't bother moving he just stood there and let the transformation happen. A few seconds passed, and Adrien was back in the same outfit he had worn as Chat Noir yesterday. That's when Marinette came back.

"I got some stuff from downstairs, do you want anything Adri-" Marinette stopped when she noticed the cat ears, tail, and black suit on the man in front of her. "Chat Noir! What are you doing here?" she shouted.

Chat remained silent for a moment, then Marinette watched him bring a hand up to his face. "Ladybug," he said, "you're Ladybug."

Marinette dropped the tray and stared blankly at Chat Noir. She'd been accused of being Ladybug before, but not by him, and they weren't as positive about her identity as he sounded. Mari opened her mouth, trying to think of something to prove him wrong, but before she could the hand he brought up to his face came back down to his side. In his hand was the black mask he had just taken off. He turned around slowly and Marinette was face to face with the boy she loved. Adrien, but also Chat Noir.

"Adrien…" she whispered in shock. He nodded his head then extended a hand out towards her. She put her hand into his, much like she had the night before as Ladybug. He pulled her close and whispered in her ear.

"May I have this dance, my lady?"

Marinette just smiles. He didn't need to ask.

"Yes you may."
