Chapter 10
The next morning Marinette rolled out of bed exhausted. She had stayed up talking to Chat almost all night on the Eiffel Tower. She knew she had to get ready though. Her senior prom was coming up and she had to help set up the auditorium. Although Adrien hadn't asked her to prom yet since they were already dating she was almost certain he would ask her soon. She got ready and headed to school. On her way she called Adrien. "Hey Kitty! Ummmm so I was wondering are are we going to prom together?" She asked not wanting to be rude. "Well well well M'lady always trying to ruin my romantic plans." He said obviously flirting. "It's just we never discussed it and I don't even know if you are going and like-" he cut her off "uhh sorry Bugaboo but my father won't let me attend. I tried to convince him but he won't let me...I didn't want to mention it but I'm really sorry. I'm really sorry I'm ruining you prom." He said now being serious. Marinette tried to hide her disappointment. "It's ok Kitty! I'm not really one for huge parties anyway" she said with false glee. After saying she loved him she hung up the phone. Tikki came out of her bag as she walked towards her school. "I'm sorry that he isn't going Marinette." Tikki said with sympathy. Marinette's upbeat pace was now extinguished with disappointment and she was now walking very sluggishly. And she finally reached the school when she looked up to find a huge banner held up by the entire fencing class. It read "Marinette, Prom wouldn't be PURRfect without you! Will you go to prom with me?" As Marinette stood in shock Adrien walked down the steps with a bouquet of roses and approached her. She saw Chloe pass out and fall into Sabrina's arms from the corner of her eye but didn't turn to look. All she could do was stare at the beautiful roses painted on the banner and turn to look at her love now standing right in front of her. "I always told you I wanted to be your first dance! And...would I ever lie to you Bugaboo?" She blushed "I never doubted you." She said with a wink. She took the flowers and set them down quickly. She then wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. She was almost positive that she heard a faint squawk coming from Chloe's direction. He picked her up and spun her around. "SOOOO is that a yes?" He said as he placed Marinette back onto the ground. "Why of course Kitty! And I hate to spoil all this fun but you and I and now the entire fencing class... Oh and Chloe and Sabrina are late..." He turned around to the fencing class now glaring at him. He then turned to see Chloe still on the floor ordering Sabrina to fan her with a textbook. "Oh I guess that appears to be true..hehe" he said as he rubbed the back of his neck nervously. They walked up the steps holding hands and they disappeared into the school.
