Scene 12 - Plagg in Adrien's Room

Plagg sat on the bed, enjoying the fancy cheese Adrien had brought out for the 'occasion'.

Plagg was particularly happy because he got all the cheese to himself. Sunshine boy was too busy climbing every structure in his room at top speed like a deranged spider monkey.

"When she's ready, she will tell me!" Adrien told Plagg, brimming with more joy than he'd seen him express in months. "She is going to get to know the real me. And who knows? I am charming with or without a costume."

Adrien slid past the bed on a rolling chair. The kid was going to hurt himself in his excitement if he wasn't careful.

"I love strong cheeses, but I'm under the impression that you might feel bad afterwards," Plagg said cryptically, finishing off the last of the cheese.

Adrien stopped rolling in his chair and gave Plagg a quizzical look.

"Wait, Plagg, you already know who she is!"

Plagg rolled his eyes. They had been through this before.

"Yeah, kid, and I still can't tell you her name."

Adrien shook his head.

"No, no, I wouldn't ask you to. She's going to tell me herself soon. I know it." his eyes were unfocused, like he was imagining exactly the way she would tell him.

"Her telling you her name is not going to make her fall in love with you," Plagg teased.

Plag knew, of course, that Ladybug was already in love with Adrien Agrest. Tikki had filled him in on Marinette's massive crush, but Plagg thought he probably could have figured it out himself based on how Marinette acts at school.

"But once I know her civilian identity, I can take her on a proper date, as Adrien. Ladybug never takes my romantics seriously because everytime we're together, we're defending Paris. She takes her responsibilities seriously, so of course she doesn't have time for me! Besides, what is the point of being a famous fashion model if I can't use this money to spoil the love of my life."

Plagg had to hold back giggles. Wait until this boy finds out he's been calling the love of his life a 'very good friend' since the beginning of the school year!
