Adrien. Oh how dreamy he was in Marinette's eyes. His eyes green and his hair golden. She sighed, as she started to think of chat after she thought "green eyes" and "golden hair" realising they shared that in common. Marinette sat in her home room class with her hand rested under her chin still day dreaming and started to think about what life would be like if she and Adrien felt the same about each other. Together. Holding hands. Kissing- "Marinette!" Marinette snapped out of her trance and turned a shade of pink. "I hope you're paying attention" Mrs Bustier said with her arms folded "Um-sorry I was daydreaming" she explained "Please pay attention" Mrs Bustier said while turning back to the chalk board. Adrien glanced back at marinette and smiled, which made her blush with an awkward grin, he turned around and blushed himself, Nino looked at him suspiciously and turned back to alya who gave a grin while Nino shrugged his shoulders.
"Alright class for the assessment you will need to get into groups of four", the four friends all looked at each other with a grin until an annoying voice interrupted "Oh! Adrien!" Chloe shouted from her desk. Adrien looked over and put on a fake smile "Adrikins you're with us." Chloe announced trying to walk away with him, "But you only have two people and the assessment says four?!" Adrien exclaimed "And besides he's with us." Marinette said standing tall and confident "why would he go with you?!, he love's me-don't you Adrikins." Chloe said with her arm entwined around Adrien's right arm. Something happened to Marinette, maybe it was rage, maybe it was jealousy perhaps it was both but either way she had enough of Chloe for the day. "Let him go Chloe! He can do what he wants!" Marinette said while moving from her seat and closer to Chloe "And what he wants is to be with me!" She said with a hand on her sternum(chest) "Oh shut up Chloe! No one cares what you want right now! It's Adrien's choice about who he wants to be with, either you, or his friends, we wouldn't mind who he went with, it's his choice not yours. Chloe let go of Adrien and walked away in a huff snapping her fingers with a 'come on Sabrina' and walked out the room leaving Adrien quite impressed how Marinette stood up for him and feeling the smallest bit bad about how Chloe might feel. "Good job girl!" Alya said with her hand out waiting to receive a high five, Marinette hit her hand and sat back down, Nino was taken aback a bit about what just happened but then looked at Adrien who looked a bit confused "Dude, it's ok if you don't wanna come with us" Adrien looked at him and smiled "Of course I'm coming with you guys, I was just trying to figure out when I'm free" "Awesome dude, sit down we have to decide what our project is gonna look like" Adrien sat down and shared ideas with the group and made plans to all work on it at Marinette's house at five later that day.
After school Adrien found himself waiting outside for his bodyguard (also known as gorilla) in the rain and covering his head with his bag wanting to quickly go home before heading over to Marinette's, little did he know that marinette had stayed late in the library catching up on some homework and decided to go home sooner after reading the forecast for that evening. Marinette walked out of the doors that led to school and saw Adrien shivering and almost soaked with water "Oh my gosh Adrien!, what are you doing out here?" she said walking fast towards him "I'm waiting for my ride" he said with small laugh, marinette looked at him and decided to use the rest of that confident she started earlier "why don't you wait inside so you don't get wet?" she said while pulling her umbrella out. Marinette had an idea but wasn't sure of it, she wondered if he would, if he could, or even if he wanted to. "Why don't you come back to my house?" she said going a little red "I-mean you're coming over later anyway, I can fix you up with a nice hot chocolate and a blanket if your cold" Marinette said with a soft grin, Adrien couldn't help but smile, she was so confident around him today and he liked it. "That would be really nice" he said with a couple of small nods and a smile "Great! I live down the road so it's not far" she said while handing the umbrella to him. "Oh, no you should have the umbrella Marinette I don't want you getting wet as well" he exclaimed handing it back to her "Trust me you'll want to use this umbrella" she said walking down the stairs of the school. " Why? What's so great about this umbrella" he started to follow "Well one, it will keep you dry enough till we get to the house and two, this is the famous Chat Noir's umbrella" Marinette smiled when she thought of that night but she wasn't the only one. Adrien blushed when she mentioned that night, Marinette was so brave with him, like she is right now, he liked it.
"Annd here we are" Marinette announced walking though the door to the bakery. She walked past the counter and though the back where some stairs led to the upstairs part of the house, Adrien followed. They arrived at the top of the staircase and halted at the door as Marinette took her house key out to unlock it. "You can have a shower if you want and I can dry your clothes off while you're doing that?.." She said unsure of his response " Uh yeah if that's alright" Adrien said putting his hand through his hair nervously. Marinette walked to the closet and grabbed a towel from the top shelf and handed it to Adrien "Here you go, the bathroom is just in there" she said pointing to the door, "Ok thanks Marinette" he said with a smile "No problem, I'll be upstairs when your done" she said starting to walk up the first stair, "Alright" Adrien said as he walked into the bathroom while closing the door behind him. When Marinette walked upstairs she sat at her desk and quickly wrote in her diary hoping a nosy cat wouldn't want to join her this time, as she wrote down her day it came up to the part about Adrien and-Oh my gosh. That's when it finally hit her. Adrien was in her house! Having a shower! Which meant he was naked! , She breathed in and out, in and out at the thought. "Stay calm Marinette your doing so well!" Tiki encouraged "That was just the confidence from the while Chloe incident earlier!" "Come on Marinette just stay confident you're doing well" Marinette got up from her seat and started passing around the room "Ugh what am I gonna do! What if I flip out and embarrass myself like I always do!" She said flopping onto her furnish "You won't Marinette just stay confident and pretend you didn't just have this melt down-" Tiki hid at the sound of footsteps when soon Adrien appeared from the hatch in the floor "Hey Marinette what should I do with my wet clothes?" Adrien said casually with a towel wrapped around his waist, Marinette froze and looked up and down Adrien's body only to look at his face when she realised she was staring. "Um uh-here I'll take them to the dryer" she walked up to him and was handed the wet clothing "Be right back!" She panicked, fast walking down the stairs and to the dryer.
As Marinette walked back up the stairs free from wet clothes she walked up only to find Adrien inspecting her room. "Hey um.. Do you still want that hot chocolate?" she asked with her hands entwined in front of her, "If it's no trouble" he kindly replied. Marinette attempted to walk away but something nudged her back making her turn around while her hand was still intact with Adrien. Adrien smiled and politely removed his hand from her's when her face lit up with pink, "Thank you Marinette" he smiled "Uh-You're welcome" she replied "Come on let's go make those hot chocolates" Marinette led the way to the kitchen and began preparing the hot beverages while Adrien swayed to a song on the radio holding his towel up, Marinette smiled when she looked up from the cups to see Adrien spinning like he was dancing with somebody, and her smile grew bigger as he lip synced the words while walking towards her with his right hand out. "Dance with me." he said with an almost familiar Chat Noir grin "I can't dance!" she said slowly backing away "That's what they all say" he took her hand "But before you know it" he pulled her in close "You'll forget all about that and you will soon be a pro." he said lacing his fingers with her's while another rested under her arm. Marinette didn't look away from her feet, making sure she didn't embarrass herself by stepping on his foot until.. "Hey" she looked up at Adrien "Keep your eyes on me and follow my feet" he mentored, the pair waltzed around the kitchen and the living room not letting their eyes go anywhere else but eachother, forgetting about the now cold 'hot' chocolates. As the end of 'Earth Angel' slowly arrived the pair inched closer every second the song came to it's last beat, Adrien leaned in with his eyes closed as Marinette did the same, becoming closer and closer only being a breath away from each other's lips when Adrien put his hand up and onto her cheek as he attempted to kiss Marinette.
