Adrien waited nervously by the movie theater.
"Relax dude." Nino said. "Alya told me she's coming."
"I hope so."
"Man, you really care for this girl don't you?"
"I can't help it bro, she's-"
"Here." Nino said. "You made it."
Adrien swallowed hard as he stared at Marinette. She looked absolutely beautiful, her dress fit her perfectly and her face had a certain glow to it. He couldn't help but notice how cute her pigtails looked, did she always wear her hair like that? He hoped so because they made her look adorable.
"You look beautiful." He told her.
"Thank you." She said. "You look pretty good, I like your hat."
"Thanks."
"Okay we all look great, now let's go." Alya said.
They got their tickets and snacks, then entered the theater. It was a black and white movie about a love story, made up into two acts. The first act was about a fair lady and a noble prince, they met at a ball. They were very much in love but she was a poor orphan and he was destined to one day rule the kingdom. So they kept their relationship a secret until a jealous noblewoman who thought herself to the prince's true love exposed them to the king. He banishes the lady from his kingdom and she wonders for many days until she finds the kingdom of a kind widowed queen who's always wanted children so she adopts the girl.
In act two years had past, the prince was engaged to a woman who said she was a duchess but she was actually just some lying wench. The prince runs away from his kingdom and becomes a knight serving the widowed queen of the other kingdom who assigns him to protect her foster daughter. When he meets the princess he recognizes her as his lost love but she is to marry a duke. So the knight and princess start another secret relationship.
It was a good movie though Nino and Alya made out for most of the movie. Adrien and Marinette really enjoyed it. The ending made Marinette cry, it ended with the knight and the princess dying in each other's arms due to shielding one another from an arrow and sword.
"Good movie." Nino said.
"What are you talking about?" Adrien asked. "You didn't even watch the movie, you were too busy locking lips with Alya."
"Can we help it if we're so in love?" Nino said.
"Oh hey! My Dad's here to pick us up." Alya said. "You coming Mari?"
"That's okay the bakery was just a couple blocks down."
"Hey Adrien you should walk her home." Nino said.
"Oh no! You don't have to do that!" Marinette said.
"Bye Marinette!" Alya said pulling Nino along into the car.
"Bye Adrien!" Nino said as they drove away.
"Alya/Nino!" Marinette and Adrien called in a annoyed tone.
"They'll thank us later." Alya giggled to her boyfriend.
Marinette and Adrien blushed and began to walk down to the bakery. For awhile neither one of them said anything. Finally Marinette decided to break the ice by striking up a conversation.
"You like popcorn?" She asked.
"Yeah it's okay."
"Really?" She said looking at the bag of it in his right hand.
"Oh! This is for my cat. Plagg loves popcorn especially with extra butter." He said. "But that's nothing compared to how much he loves Camembert."
"Camenbert?"
"You're not the only person with a rare cat breed."
She laughed, he laughed along with her.
Ah...That was a wonderful movie." Marinette said wiping her eyes. "But so sad."
"I haven't been to a movie in forever." He said. "It's hard with my schedule."
"How busy is it?"
"Well let's see I have breakfast, then I have tutoring, after that I have my fencing lesson, then I have lunch, modeling, my Chinese lesson, more tutoring, dinner, time with my family that is if my father gives me the time of day."
"Well what do you do for fun?"
"Fun?"
"Yeah don't you have time for fun?"
"My father says fun is a waste of time. You see he's getting me ready to inherit his plantation when I turn eighteen."
"Oh come on, you're fifteen, you're young, you need at least a little pleasure in your life."
"Well once and in awhile Nathalie will convince him to let me go out to things like carnivals and the movies."
"Who's Nathalie?"
"My father's head servant, she looks after the house." He said. "So tell me about yourself? What do you do?"
"Well I go to school, I help out in the bakery, make deliveries, I also love to sew and design clothes, and I sing a little."
"Really? Sing something."
"No. I'm way too shy."
"Come on it's just me."
"No." she declared.
He laughed at her shyness as they continued to walk. "I play piano."
"Huh?"
"You asked what I do for fun, I play piano. It's one of the lessons my father signed me up for that I actually enjoy."
"I'd love to hear you play sometime."
"Really?"
"Yes."
The two shared a smile, they were halfway to the bakery when Adrien took her by the hand. "Do you wanna dance with me?"
"Sure...I mean I would but I can't dance."
"It's easy."
"But I-"
He pulled her to his chest, she blushed hard and it deepened when his hand covered her waist. She found her other hand sliding up to his shoulder, their fingers interlaced. Their feet moved in perfect sync and their eyes locked never breaking contact once. He dipped her while flashing his best smile at the same time he inhaled her sweet perfume that mixed with the smell of vanilla and sugar from the bakery.
"Can I ask you something?" He whispered in her ear.
"Ye...yes." She stuttered.
"Do you believe in love at first sight?"
When he pulled her up their lips met in a kiss.
"Awww!"
They looked over to see a large man and a little woman smiling at them from the bakery.
"Mom! Dad!" Marinette said annoyed.
"Sorry Dear." Sabine said. "Let's go back inside Tom."
...
"That night marked the beginning of Adrien and Marinette's relationship which would soon grow into something more as the summer went on." Mr. Noir read.
"They fell in love didn't they?" Miss Lady asked.
"Yes they did."
"Good but what about Chloe? Don't tell me they dated behind her back."
"They didn't but we'll get to that part tomorrow." He said closing the book. "I have a doctor's appointment I have some heart trouble and I need to check on my kids."
"You have kids?"
"Three. A boy, a girl, and then another son."
"That's nice." She put their cups in the sink and opened the door for him. "Will I see you tomorrow?"
"Of course."
