Thanks for the suggestion, ifirestone (tumblr)! :)

"Why are we wasting any time?", Chloé snarled, crossing her arms at the girl in front of her. Marinette's aimless and nervous stuttering came to a halt and she gulped, looking up.

"Wh-What? Wasting time? What do you mean?"

The blonde girl sighed, rolling her eyes.

"I've figured you out months ago. You can let your Kwami out again, maybe it needs air."

Her eyes blew wide open as her hands came to a front again, letting go of a red Kwami with black spots. Though, it looked a little purple-ish.

"Wh-… When…?", Marinette choked out, her Kwami flying up to her shoulder, wheezing a little.

Chloé snickered.

"You're not really stealthy about that, you know? And you have no talent whatsoever in hiding your transformations. Seriously, whenever you ran away at an Akuma attack I saw the light flashing behind the next wall. Or even park benches.", she shook her head, "The only thing that still a mystery to me is how nobody knows about it yet. Not even Alya and she really sticks her nose into everything."

Marinette almost seemed ashamed until she got her Ladybug bite back, straightening up and holding a protective hand in front of her Kwami. Chloé almost snickered at how cute she looked.

"Wait, how do you know Tikki's a Kwami? You said that earlier."

With a quick roll of her eyes, Chloé bopped Marinette's nose, smirking.

"I know a thing or two about my favorite superhero. Anyway, sweets, you're still wasting time. Our poor comrades are probably really alone without us."

"Wh-Wha-…"

"Well then! See you on the battlefield!", Chloé cackled, turning on her heel and vanishing behind the wall. Just when she was out of Marinette's sight and had made sure nobody would see her, she giggled another time, just staying behind the corner. She could even still hear Marinette stuttering.

"Pollen! Stripes on!"

Her Kwami shot her an amused look before she vanished in the comb in Chloé's hair, transforming her in a yellow flash.

And as she looked back, Marinette just stepped out, her mouth agape at Queen B taking off.
