That weekday, was the most terrifying day Marinette had ever took pleasure of going through in her school. And it's no joke! She had so many terrible days but even all of her near life and death scenarios as a hero, Ladybug- couldn't and wouldn't compare to this. Alya was punishing her!
If you can call Alya's hugs (/Death grip) as a punishment. Then- yeah. She's getting SO punished! "Whaa! Marinette! Ladybug! Mari, you're Ladybug! Who are you and what've you done to best friend- Marinette!? You were awesome! I am going to die! I am ganna die so happy! You grew up so fast~!" Alya babbled as she strangled- erm, hugged- Mari!
Marinette gasped for breath. Her parents did the same to her after they watched the music video last night. She got a lot of praise. And yet, Marinette still doubted herself. All of her classmates were congratulating her (well, except of the certain bad girls *COUGH* ChloeSabrina *COUGH*).
Even their teacher- Mme. Bustier -praised her. Marinette's stuttering wasn't getting any better, for sure. That is when Adrien finally decided to show up! (Oh, great timing.) Mari was really going to faint, now! "H-Hey, M-M-Marinette. I-er, saw the v-video and- uh." He said. (Wow. Just- wow. Ugh!)
Surprisingly, he was the one being an adorable mess. She raised an eyebrow- quite absent-minded -as she wondered where the composed and calm Adrien went. Adrien didn't even know if he could look at her like the same way ever again. Impossible! Her music video sent him to the edge.
While these two are being adorable, Alya and Nino quickly stepped back to admire their work. Those two were super sweet that it was almost too painful for the tooth to bear. Until Alya remembered something and just HAD to ruin a moment like this for us. "Marinette!" She yelled.
Without a second to lose, Marinette gratefully dashed off towards her best friend. "Yes?" She asked. "You gotta see this!" Alya exclaimed as she pushed her phone infront of Mari's face. The Ladyblog was opened up and- Woah! It's got like a billion flourishing compliments... or something!
"You see, after posting your music video on my blog, that video got me all this. Via express viral! And it's only been like- 2 days! You should've read all those proposals you've got. I'm sure that there's more but it was too many for me to read it all. See for yourself, girl!" Alya exclaimed at her.
"Marinette's the new Ladybug? Good enough to be a wife? Absolutely gorgeous?- No way!" Marinette blushed as she read all the comments about her video. Or herself, rather. When night time came, a certain Chat was distracted, too.
Ladybug and Chat Noir were having their usual patrol. But Ladybug noticed that he hadn't spoken a word. When she asked him about it, he said it was nothing. Then they both went separate ways once more. Marinette's bedroom wall was cleaned up from all her Adrien Agreste posters.
Let's say that when a mother comes to your room, always hide the pictures of your celebrity crush because they will gush about it until you're already ripe. Once she was done cleaning up, she heard three knocks on her window.
Mari's first guess was a thief. So, she picked her scissors just in case and slowly made her way towards her room's trapdoor which leads to her favorite balcony. She looked outside to see her Chatton sitting on a cat-like way as he smirked at her, sheepishly.
Oh. It's just Chat Noir visiting her civilian self. How sweet- Wait a second! CHAT!? Mari almost fell out of balance. An awestruck look made its way into her face. Omygosh! Did he find out that she's Ladybug? Mari knew that it was the perfect time to panic. Why was he here!? The music video must be a dead give away! Chat saw her internal distress.
"Ah! H-Hey, Princess!" He internally cursed himself for the slipped stutter. So much for cool and cocky, no? "Ch-Chat Noir!? What- wh-why are you here? In MYplace?" The girl tried (but failed) to cover up her nervousness. It was hard for her not to panic. Chat was here! HERE!
