Forever one of my favorite tales based on true events.

MariChat FWB AU. Pining away for someone isn't easy, especially when there's a perfectly attractive person right next to you. A stray thought leads to a crazy idea leads to a whirlwind of passion that leaves Marinette and Chat Noir in even more of a mess than when everything started.

Marinette and Adrien haven't spoken to each other since they were eighteen. 7 years later, Marinette comes back into his life, in fear of her life. A stalker has been following her, and Adrien is the only one who can help her. Secrets, lies, and confessions are revealed between the ex lovers. How far will Adrien go to win her back? I do not own Miraculous Ladybug or the image.

(Title change! Used to be what's the deal?) Gabriel is concerned about Adrien's popularity in the media. In hopes o boot his publicity he proposes his son finds himself a girlfriend…even if he doesn't particularly want one.
