Arachnophobia (Part 6)

The next day Adrien had been far too eager to get to school. He had been up half the night even though he had been exhausted thinking about the similarities between Marinette and Ladybug. The quiet sweet girl who sat behind him… could she really be the love of his life? It was close to dawn when he had finally passed out and he over slept his initial alarm. He had bolted from the house and ran the whole way to school eager to find Marinette and just talk to her. They had never made it to her house for snack the previous day and he figured he could always bring that up as an option if she went all shy on him again. It was the final day for setting up the maze and even though he had awakened early there were already a ton of people in the gym by the time he got there. He searched the area for Marinette and was about to go into the maze to look when he was sidetracked for job. He had so badly wanted to refuse but knew he couldn't if he didn't want to draw attention to himself. Swiftly he had done it and started his search again only to be found out by a different teacher and sent on yet another errand. The third time he went searching for her a teacher sent him up into the rafters on a ladder to help hang spooky decorations. At this point Adrien was ready to scream. All he wanted was to find Marinette and talk to her but it was as if his luck just didn't want to play nice today. As he finished his third job for the day Adrien realized that it was almost lunch and from his high position he could see the entire maze as well as the people in it. A grin lit up his face as he scanned the area finding Marinette alone in a room fairly near his position. Memorizing the route he needed to take in the maze to get to her Adrien practically flew down the ladder before he darted into the maze finally managing to avoid the teachers watchful eyes. He slowed his pace as he neared her not wanting her to be alerted to his approach. They were very much alone in this area of the maze although he could hear everyone laughing and yelling just on the other side of the thin walls. Coming around the last wall separating the two of them he paused taking in his princess and trying to understand what she was muttering to herself. She was crouched on the ground pulling gauze like threads apart so she could continue to cover the room in fake webbing. Slowly he slipped closer not yet ready to give himself away and finally he was able to hear what she was muttering.

"Out of all the jobs I get stuck with this." Marinette muttered not even realizing that Adrien was behind her. "At least its not sticky… after yesterday I swear I will never look at spiders the same way again."

Adrien felt a fire ignite in his chest. There was no doubt in his mind now but he had to be sure. Usually when they defeated a particularly tough Akuma both he and Ladybug had suffered from a sense of heightened awareness for a day or so after. Usually this translated to extreme jumpiness and a tendency to react first before rational thought caught up with them. More than once Ladybug had complained how she had almost struck a poor fool that had grabbed her when she had least expected it. Adrien had found that he had the same problem but it was easier for him to hide. For the most part he was totally alone at home and anywhere else he went he always saw people coming at him long before they had the chance to sneak up on him. With a grin he slipped forward on silent feet covering the meager distance between them in seconds. This was probably going to hurt like hell but it would be so very worth it.

Edging up right behind her he said "Hello princess." as he poked his fingers into her sides.

Most girls would have shrieked or at the very least jumped sky high. Not his princess and definitely not his Ladybug. No, she spun one leg lashing out so fast not even his cat like reflexes were fast enough to help him dodge. His back smashed into the floor and she was on him in a second. Her legs straddled his middle, one hand tangled in his shirt front as the other fist cocked back to strike a powerful blow before her mind caught up with her instinctual reaction. She blinked coming to her senses and turned a spectacular bright red color.

"Good morning!" Adrien said brightly before shooting a very large grin up at her completely mortified face.

"OhmygoshIamsosorry!" she shrieked as she scrambled off of him. Adrien sat up the grin never leaving his face, his mind completely made up even as he tried to breathe. In her nervous scramble Marinettes feet tangled in the fake webbing tripping her up and she pitched backwards falling right back into his arms.

"Ghaaa!" she cried and Adrien caught her holding her close even as she tried to scramble away again. He started to laugh at her antics and she went still from the shock of being literally in his lap. Slowly he loosened his grip and sat her up a little so they were at least facing each other. He didn't release her yet though since she looked as if she were about to bolt at any second. She was looking everywhere but him her shyness and overreaction to being snuck up on sending her into a near frozen state of mortification. The jig was up and Adrien realized that he needed to tell her exactly who he was because as she was now Marinette wouldn't ever think of it. So he decided to be blatantly obvious.

"It looks like I found you My Lady." He said a wild grin on his face as her eyes snapped up to his.

Confusion reigned there and Adrien paused wondering if maybe he wasn't being obvious enough. He tried another approach. "What a paws-itively claw-ful job to get after yesterday." He said pointing to the bunched webbing near her feet.

Marinettes jaw fell open in shock. "Chat?!" she managed hands pressing to her mouth as he finally released her to brace himself more comfortably against the floor.

"Yes Princess?" he asked cocking his head and allowed a grin only Chat could wear spread across his features. A thousand emotions flashed through her eyes before Marinette let out a sound that was somewhere between whimper and a squeal. In the next instant she tackled him again her arms wrapped firmly around him.

"You ridiculous cat how in the hell do you find me so fast?" Marinette whispered and Adrien wrapped his arms just as tight around her, his back flush to the cold floor feeling as if he had just won the million dollar prize.

"It's a felines secret." He answered in blissful heaven, his face buried in her hair and neck, breathing her sweet scent in. She was laying across him and she was so very warm, so very soft, that he wished this moment would last forever. Then a throat cleared itself loudly from the doorway.

Marinettes head jerked up and Adrien unburied his face, rolling his head back to see Alya standing in the doorway upside down looking shocked to say the least. Suddenly recognizing the compromising position she and Adrien were in, Marinette scrambled off him for the second time that day leaping to her feet as he simply rolled over onto his belly propping one hand up under his chin.

"I-Its not what you think!" Marinette said and Alyas shocked expression cracked wide open into a massive grin.

"Uh huh… and why does Adrien look like the cat that just caught the canary?" Alya asked

Marinette slapped a hand to her forehead and Adrien snorted at the perfect comparison though a ladybug would have been a better choice than a canary in his opinion.

"I am Purr-factly content because I just cat-tured some of my very own special luck." Adrien replied from the floor

"Huh?" Alya asked looking utterly confused and Marinette let out a groan even as she kicked him in the side gently.

Adrien laughed and sprang to his feet before she could do it again.

"I do believe we have been caught princess." Adrien said and with an extravagant flourish lifted Marinettes hand to his lips deciding to leave the explanations to her.

Marinette blushed at Adriens silliness and before she could think of anything to say Alya squealed then literally ran away.

"Huh she ran." Adrien said lifting his lips from her captive hand to stare at the now empty doorway. He could still hear her though, squealing and yelling for Nino as she sprinted through the maze. Marinette stomped on his foot and yanked her hand from his grip though she couldn't wipe the huge grin off her own face.

"You are in so much trouble later kitty." Marinette whispered their faces inches apart

"Can I take you out on a date first and be in trouble later?" Adrien asked causing Marinette to blush and nod almost hitting his head as she whispered "Yes please."

"Thank goodness you said yes!" a tiny voice cried and in the next instant Plagg flew from his hiding spot making Marinette stumble back in surprise.

"Plagg! What have I told you about coming out!" Adrien complained already wanting that closeness between himself and Marinette back.

"He's a tiny kitten." Marinette whispered then started to laugh as Tiki flew from her purse to slam into Plagg.

"You silly cat I have missed you so much!" Tiki cried and Adrien couldn't help but notice how happy Plagg looked

"We just saw each other last night but yes it's nice to see you again too Tiki." Plagg answered hugging her just as tight even though they had just seen each other the day before. Tiki had been really weak the night before and it was only because she had helped herself to massive amounts of sugar from the school cafeteria that she had managed a second transformation to allow Marinette to get home in one piece. All in all since she hadn't been up to talking last night so it was now that her over exuberance showed itself fully.

"Come on we can talk in Marinettes purse!" Tiki giggled pulling him down into the small bag.

Watching them go Marinette couldn't help but feel a lightness fill her and as she looked up to meet Adriens eyes she felt her heart leap into her throat. He was Chat. He was her partner, her protector, and he was her crush that always seemed to be out of her reach. Standing here now though they were equals and Adrien saw the change in her as she gazed at him no words being needed between them.

His eyes practically sparkled in answer as he grinned at her. His stunning Ladybug, his shy, sweet princess were one and the same and he would be lying if he said that he didn't feel completely at home in her arms. They were ready to take on the world hand in hand and clearing his throat Adrien took both of her hands in his before saying "About that date…"
