Chapter 2: Untold Answers

Adrien realizing the situation instantly tried to clear up the misunderstanding.

"No wait Marinette believe me this isn't what it looks like," by this point, Adrien was on his knees in a bow pleading for forgiveness.

"You have to believe me I'd never do this without reason, I'll do whatever you want just please please hear me out," Adrien was nearly on the verge of tears.

"Hey don't cry just explain what happened," Marinette was mad at Adrien but she knew that wasn't something her friend would do.

"Y-you're not mad?" Adrien was sure he was going to get arrested, thrown out, or at least get the shit slapped out of him.

"Of course I'm mad but I know Adrien Agreste is not a pervert," Adrien still in mid bow slowly got up wiped the tears that had just started to form in his eyes and explained.

"While I was taking a break and watching you play…" Adrien stopped wait I can't tell her this she'll think I'm crazy or lying, but it's the truth. Uhh, what do I do… dammit please God don't let me go to jail.

"I...I got an urge and used your panties for my desires!" yeah I'm going to jail, but wait maybe she'll be merciful after all you said it yourself she is the nicest person in Paris…

He opened his eyes but what he saw was not the look of mercy that was a look of pure unfiltered hate and rage. If he didn't do something he was definitely making a trip downtown. But then it occurred to him there was only one more way he could save himself from prison it might hurt Marinette in the long run but it's better than the slammer.

"The truth is…" as he said this Marinette was pulled out of her thoughts of how she was going to scold him while still keeping their friendship intact. Something obviously unapparent to Adrien.

"The truth is…" the words seem to be caught in his throat he had never said this to anyone other than his mother and occasionally to his dad, "Marinette I've had feeling for you for a long time, I love you."

I'm not completely lying I mean sure I love Ladybug but If she weren't around I think I'd definitely have asked Mari out instead.

Time seemed to stand still as he waited for Marinette to say something but he couldn't hear anything, not a single sound he slowly picked his head up and opened his eyes and her face had changed to a look of concern.

I knew it she's thinking of how to nicely turn me down… I mean it's not like I didn't see it coming but... I kinda hoped she'd say…

"Umm, actually Adrien…" Marinette started

"It's ok I know you probably have someone you already like," he tried his best but he couldn't help sounding a little depressed.

"Adrien…" Marinette continued sadness could easily be heard in her voice, and she could easily hear the sadness in his.

"No really it's fine," He didn't know why he was so sad after all he had his bugaboo and he thought he liked her more but then why did his heart suddenly feel so tight.

"It's f-fine," He could feel tears running down his cheeks.

Why, why am I so sad. I love ladybug but then why am I so sad it doesn't make sense.

"I should go thanks for hearing me out," he left trying to avoid crying in front of Marinette the only girl he had ever asked out.

"W-wait Adrien…" but he was already gone leaving Marinette alone with her untold answer.

On Monday Adrien was absent from class and Marinette was a wreck at school.

"Mari…" Alya was trying to figure out what had happened.

"Mari… girl are you alright you haven't said a thing today," While she was curious about what happened on Saturday with Adrien, she was also concerned for her friend.

Marinette looked up at her and Alya could see she had been crying her eyes were puffy and it was clear by her expression she got no sleep

"Omg Mari what happened," Alya pulled her heartbroken friend into a hug.

"Wait did Adrien turn you down after you confessed I swear if he did I'm gonna…" Alya was already about to leave school to go have a word with Adrien but Marinette stopped her.

"No Alya!" she tugged at her shirt urging her to sit down.

"That isn't what...isn't what," Marinette could barely fight back the tears as her throat tightened.

"I-I turned him down," when she said this Alya's face instantly turned from anger to worry.

"Wait what I thought you liked Adrien," Alya was trying to make sense of what her friend just told her.

"I do it just happened so fast and there was crying and and…" Alya could see it was hard for Marinette to explain so she simply tried to console her friend until Marinette was ready to tell her what happened.

Finally when lunch break had just started and Marinette started to explain the situation and what happened.

"I'm an idiot aren't I," Marinette kept reciting the same phrase in her head why didn't I tell him. Why didn't I tell him?

"No no you're not an idiot you were just flustered," Alya was trying her hardest to keep her friend from crying again "you just have never been in that situation before right?"

"Right," Marinette agreed.

"Then you know what you have to do right?" Alya turned to her friend

"What?" Marinette didn't have a clue in the world of how to handle things with Adrien.

"You have to go clear up this misunderstanding you have to give him your answer besides it should be easy now that you know he's going to say yes," Alya smiled and gave her friend a punch to the shoulder.

Marinette smiled, her friend was right it would be fine as long as she was truthful about her feeling for Adrien.

A.N. Hi I know I said I didn't know when I was going to make another chapter or how long I was going to make it but it seemed wrong to leave you guys with such a juicy and cringe worthy cliffhanger so I worked long and hard to get this chapter done as fast as possible. Wow, I really have no life I got this whole chapter done just a couple hours after the first one (I-I).

A.N. Also sry for the sudden name change but I saw how many had that corny title so I went with something I thought was a bit more original.
