So I've decided to carry on this story a little bit and post another chapter! Please feel free to review, PM me, follow and favourite. I'd love to hear from you guys

"Tikki! What's going on with her?" Marinette sighed as she laid down on her bed and stared up through skylight above her. Stars filled the sky with constellations and twinkled whenever she looked at them.

The fluffy pink and black kwami emerged from Marinette's bag and hovered in front of her face. "I'm not sure Marinette, but maybe you should just wait for her to tell you on her own." Marinette scrunched her face and sat up restlessly, startling the creature. "But Tikki, if there's something going on with her, shouldn't I know about it? I mean, I'm her best friend." Tikki opened her mouth to reply when Chat Noir gently landed in Marinette's terrace. Tikki quickly hid back in one of Marinette's open drawers. Marinette got up to unlatch the window and let the black cat in.

"Miss me, Princess?" Chat Noir said cheekily as he landed on her bedroom floor.

"Haha...You wish.." Marinette replied halfheartedly.

Sensing something was wrong, Chat didn't hesitate to find out what. "Princess, is something bothering you?"

"No, no I'm fine" Marinette replied a bit too quickly. Chat raised an eyebrow and suddenly she couldn't keep it in anymore. "My best friend at school has been acting weird these past few days and I think she's hiding something from me and I really want to find out what because she my best friend and I tell her everything and she tells me everything and I want to help her through whatever is going on with her but she won't tell me what's bothering her and I don't know why." Marinette said in a ramble, leaving Chat to keep up with the high speed speaking.

He stood there with a passive face until he finally said "so your best friend is hiding something from you and you want to know what it is?"

"Yes! Absolutely and it's killing me.."

Chat gave her a weird look and they talked until his ring beeped, warning them of the time they had left. He ran silently across the rooftops until he landed on his own. He quickly untransformed and collapsed on his bed.

Now it was Adrien's turn to be confused. "Plagg, Alya and Marinette have never kept anything from each other. Every time I look at those two, they're either laughing or just chatting like two friends would." Adrien had absolutely no idea that this whole thing was about him. Plagg flew in from of him, stuffing cheese into his mouth. "You humans are so weird. All this drama and gossip is just a waste of time. Do you have anymore Mozzarella? That stuff is good." Adrien rolled his eyes and walked towards the fridge. "You only think it's a waste of time because all you have in your life is cheese."

Handing Plagg some more Mozzarella, Plagg replied, "not true! I have you." sending Adrien a kiss while stuffing cheese into his mouth.

"Har har. Very funny." Adrien sank back down into his bed and waited for the sun to rise. He awoke to his alarm clock and reached out a hand to silence it. His blonde hair was in mess, bits of hair in every direction. Sleep was still in his eyes as he got up to shower and brush his teeth. Still sleepy, his shoulders were slumped and he yawned every few minutes. He enjoyed visiting his Princess most nights, but it took a lot out of him. Especially when we had photoshoots so early in the morning. Adrien grabbed his bag and headed for the door. He had yet another photoshoot at 7:00 and it was only 6:30 in the morning.

Marinette was early for once, sitting at her desk and drawing in her sketchbook, adding flowers and patterns to the pink dress. Alya arrived just as the bell rang and plonked herself on her seat. Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, she too probably had a late night. The students got through 3 periods of school when they heard a scream. Both Marinette and Adrien looked up. He was pawsitive that an akuma was nearby. Marinette was searching frantically for an excuse when she fake sneezed. "Uh Miss? Can I please go to the bathroom?" With a nod, she grabbed her bag and transformed as soon as she was out of sight. "Tikki! Transform me!" Her body was covered pink and black spotted spandex, a small yoyo positioned at her hip. She ran out of the school grounds to find yet another akuma. "I am Dark Touch! And you will all become my slaves!" She rolled her eyes at how cliché it all was. Dark Touch? Really? A dark purple-ish material concealed his entire body only leaving his eyes uncovered. She looked to her left and saw Alya hiding behind a bush filming the action, as always. Looks like her feelings for Ladybug hasn't changed. Marinette searched for where the black butterfly could be hiding when Chat Noir landed beside her.

"My Lady! I'm so furry sorry if I kept you waiting."

She laughed to herself at the pun. "Not at all kitty cat. You were just on time." Together they fought Dark Touch dodging the spheres of darkness he sent out. "There! It's in his ring!" Ladybug shouted to her partner. Chat nodded. "Lucky charm!" she cried. Some springy shoes landing into her hands. "What am I supposed to do with these?" Then, she had an idea. She quickly put them on and jumped high in the air, flipping over the akuma, narrowly missing his purple ball of darkness. As Dark Touch raised his hand, Chat ran in from behind, jumped and slipped the ring off his finger, crushing it in his hand. A purple butterfly flew out and Ladybug cleansed it, freeing it from the evil it possessed. "Miraculous Ladybug!" She threw the shoes up in the air, a bright light washing over the area. She fist bumped her partner, having accomplished another mission. Her earrings beeped and she gave Chat an apologetic smile and swung away. He missed his lady. Akumas were getting rarer and rarer these days.

Alya woke up early the next morning. The sun shining in her eyes through her curtains. She couldn't help but feel like she was falling for Adrien. After all, he is good looking, smart and kind. Everybody knew that. But knowing how her best friend felt about him, she tried to push those thoughts away. She tried to ignore them but they just kept coming back, whenever she went to school or saw him on the weekends. Eventually they couldn't be ignored. She lay down on the lime green sheets on her bed, smoothing any crinkles she made. She couldn't tell Marinette about this. But she knew that she suspected something was going on. She kept thinking about it, until she knew that she couldn't keep her feelings to herself anymore.
