Hey Miraculous fans!

I am so sorry for the delay in writing this story.

Thank you so much to everyone who has reviewed this story! Wow! Keep it up!

Enjoy!

It was a lovely spring break in Paris and while the majority of my classmates were posting about 'how awesome' their trips were going, I was sitting at my desk contentedly texting my girlfriend.

Hard to believe I know. After we saw the movie a couple months ago Marinette and I have just been getting more and more close. We started sitting next to each other in class to the amazement of the rest of the class and to Chloe's shock and dismay. We started playing more Ultimate Mecha Strike at Marinette's house and I even asked if she would want to check out my upcoming fashion show in about a month.

Yes things are moving swimmingly indeed...

I check my phone and send my girlfriend a new text.

Check out the hilarious new cat memes featuring Cat Noir. They're purr-fect. wouldn't you agree?.

Wow Adrien..

C-mon.. I know you admire him deep down...

Whatever Hot stuff.. I gotta go, Maman's calling me. Walk with me tomorrow?

Of course! You know I would do anything for you. Can you bring a couple of your dad's croissants so we can eat them on the way?

Yeah! Papa won't mind. Thanks Adrien! See you then.

My gluttonous kwami Plagg leans over to see me texting Marinette.

"So things between you and the baker's daughter have really been working out huh?"

"Isn't it great Plagg?" We've been going out for about four months now and I like spending every chance I can with her."

I let out a sigh.

"I just wish she knew my other half too. I hate that I know both of her counterparts and yet she doesn't know I'm Cat Noir..."

In response Plagg just lets out a overly dramatic yawn.

"As nice as your love life is going I will have to say that I AM exhausted. I'm going to hit the hay."

With that Plagg flies over to my pillow and starts getting ready for bed.

"Uh ok then.." I mutter to no one in particular. "Good night Plagg."


I toss back and forth with blissful dreams of me and Marinette together. I begin to groan and talk in my sleep.

"Marinette... A house by the countryside.. three kids and a hamster.. nah forget the hamster.. a black cat instead.."

I feel light sprinkles fall on my face. I abruptly sneeze and sit up to find blue colored sand all over my face.

"What on earth?" I look around to wake up Plagg but to my horror and slight annoyance he replaced himself with a sock puppet instead.

All of a sudden I hear a creak and I see my window slowly slide open and then a light thud on the ground. Curious like a cat I get up out of bed and I start to walk over to the noise before I am stopped by Marinette.

"Adrien.." Marinette calls out in a sweet but somewhat creepy like tone.

"Marinette? What's going on?" I say as I take her hands in mine.

Marinette cocks her head.

"Do you wanna know my secret?"

Is it about being Ladybug? I think to myself.

That was a surprise mistake that had happened a few months ago with Troublemaker. I was never supposed to find out.

Although Marinette is my girlfriend now. People that are in relationships should be able to talk about everything.

"Um sure?" I cautiously answer back.

Marinette creepily giggles before replying. "I'm in love with a boy and his name is Luka!"

No way that's possible.

Although a few weeks ago with Captain Hardrock when we were all tied up Marinette/Ladybug was able to get free and then Luka was obviously trying to flirt with her..

"You're amazing. A real magician Marinette."

"You think so? Oh it was nothing, uh amazing really?"

"Adrien..." Marinette interrupts my thoughts. "The prettiest and smartest one of all is Luka!"

"You are not real! This has to be a nightmare..." I quickly run downstairs and out the front door to see all sorts of mayhem amuck in the streets.

"What is going on tonight?"

I look up to see a small blue creature riding on top of a floating pillow with blue sand trailing after him.

"The Sandboy just checked in! Now Nightmares can begin!"

"Well that explains how the nightmares are coming to life." I say to myself.

My nightmare starts to slowly walk towards me near the gate entrance.

"One day Luka and I will have a house together, and we'll have a cat named Adrien."

"This calls for some Cat Noir action! Plagg claws out!" I say with a fist in the air. I open my eyes and then I remember that my kwami ditched me.

"Crap I forgot. I've got to find Plagg!"


After finding my way out of my front yard and running a half marathon I finally make it to Master Fu's shop where I am fairly certain that's where my kwami would run off too.

I carefully open the door and to my relief Master Fu is sprawled across the floor fast asleep with a magazine across his face. I tiptoe over to the miracle box and am about to punch in the digits. I slightly groan as I remember that Master Fu has never actually never told me the code to the miracle box.

"Shoot what's the code?" I whisper in a flustered tone. I lean in closer to the box.

"Plagg, Plagg can you hear me? Plagg!"

Before I can call out to Plagg again I hear akumatized laughter and blue dust fall over Master Fu.

"The Sandboy just checked in! Now nightmares can begin!"

I rush over to Master Fu and quickly shake him awake.

"Master Fu wake up!"

"What the- Adrien?" the old man sputters in shock at seeing me at this hour.

I grab his hand to pull him and explain to him what's going on but just then three ghosts in white sheets appear.

"FU! We are the ghosts of the order of the guardians of the miraculous. You caused our downfall and lost two miraculous!"

Tears start to form in Master Fu's eyes. "I'm sorry. I never wanted this to happen."

The ghosts begin to chant as one. "Your fault. Your fault. Your fault."

Turning to me Master Fu begs.

"Adrien transform."

"I can't Master! Plagg is missing! I think he might be in the Miracle Box! Can't you communicate with him and see what's going on?"

My nightmare girlfriend kicks the door down and starts to slowly crawl towards me to both mine and Master Fu's horror.

"I'm in love with a boy and his name is Luka!"

"I'm sorry Adrien but I can't. Even if Plagg is in the miracle box, there is no way of communicating with the kwamis when they are in their magic world."

"Adrien for your birthday I'm going to buy you croissants, eclairs, and Lukas!"

I close my eyes and wait for doom, only to hear a sharp whiny voice.

"Adrien! Are you ok?"

I open my eyes and to my surprise Plagg is right in front of me.

"Plagg! I'm glad your back but you better have a good excuse for ditching me!" I say with a slight frown.

Plagg nervously laughs in response in a sheepish way.

"Time to end this nightmare! Plagg claws out!"


I land on the rooftop and to my relief Ladybug/Marinette, the real one, is there too.

"M'Lady." I say while running up to her. "Tonight's been a total nightmare.. until you showed up. I quickly give her an embrace which she awkwardly returns back to me.

"Thank you Cat Noir, but this is no time for games. We have to stop Sandboy!"

"I've already run into him. He rides on a pillow which releases the magic dust which causes the nightmares. That's where his akuma is."

"Awesome! Then time for a pillow fight!"

Omg she just made a pun. This night is starting to get better!

Sandboy suddenly appears and we quickly get rush into battle. He tries blasting sand at me but I dodge each one.

"Cut it out!" I scream at the akumatized person. "I've already dealt with one nightmare and I do not need another one right now!"

Ladybug jumps next to me. "He's way too fast and his evil sand is blowing everywhere."

She jumps into the air and yells "Lucky charm! Whoah!"

I turn to see Ladybug crumple to the ground having been blasted by Sandboy.

She stands up and shakes blue dust off of her. She tries to throw her yoyo at Sandboy but misses and ends up hitting me on the head instead.

"Ouch!" I say while glaring at her.

"Sorry!" Ladybug apologizes. "Ugh this is literally my worst nightmare! My powers don't work, what do we do?"

"Who's about to get a pretty magic jewel?" Sandboy cackles while rubbing his hands together inching towards us.

Before Sandboy can grab Ladybug's earrings I grab Ladybug's hand and we run across the rooftops together until we find a secluded hiding spot.

Once I am sure that the coast is clear I turn to Ladybug.

"We need to figure out a plan. Now!"

"I already told you I can't do anything without my powers!" Ladybug says while tears start to flow freely down her face. "It's no use Cat Noir. I'm useless.."

I cup her chin and make her look up at me.

"Listen to me. You are not useless. You are the most amazing person I know hands down. We will defeat him. You can do this."

I carefully wipe away her tears and I can see Marinette's pretty bluebell eyes once again.

With both of my hands still on her cheeks I slowly close my eyes and gently kiss her softly on the lips. Ladybug is a little shocked at the sensation but then gives in and passionately kisses me with fervor.

Oh Marinette...

Eventually I break away and cheekily smile back at my partner.

Having gained her confidence back Ladybug smiles with determination and starts to look around quickly.

"Got it! Follow me!"

"Anywhere M'Lady.."

We run out of our hiding sport towards Sandboy who must have found us. Before Sandboy can do or say anything, Ladybug gives the signal to me and I leap towards the pillow with one hand outstretched.

"Cataclysm!"

I make sure to catch Sandboy and both of us land safely on the ground. Ladybug cleanses the akuma and throws her yo yo in the air making everything return to normal.


Back in my room I just stand for a few moments looking out the window with a dopey grin on my face.

Marinette, you'll always be the lady of my dreams.

Hope you guys enjoyed this segment. I thought it would be fun to reverse roles on Marinettes nightmare and make it be Adrien instead..

Have a great summer!
