Hey! I've had multiple people on both Fanfiction and DeviantArt asking how it would end with the partnership and stuff after last chapter so I added another one. You may or may not like it but that's your own opinion!

The Aftermath

Marinette sighed as she walked through school.

It had been two months since she found out Adrien was Chat Noir and he found out she was Ladybug.

It had also been two months since she got upset upon finding her crush was actually the complete opposite of what she throught he was.

It had been two months since Adrien made her realize she had never been fair and only loved about him what she wanted to see and not who he really was.

It had been two months since she destroyed all the great things they had together as Ladybug and Chat Noir and what they could have had as Marinette and Adrien.

After he had left her alone that night Marinette had went home, feeling lower then ever.

Tikki had barely said anything to her, mostly calmly pointing out how it was Marinette's own fault for what happened before leaving the girl alone to cry.

The next day at school she tried to greet the model at least but he only glared and shoved past her.

Alya had seen it and had been about to run after Adrien and yell at him but Nino stopped her, dragged her off and when she returned the blogger was more upset with Marinette.

"Girl, is it true? Did you really throw a fit at Adrien because he's got a different side to him then you'd thought?" she asked and Marinette broke down.

It turned out Adrien had told Nino most of what happened between them so Marinette did the same to Alya, telling her how she got angry at Adrien for not being who she thought he was and how he had snapped about her and others expecting him to be perfect.

Alya was obviously very disappointed in her but was still enough a wonderful friend and stayed by Marinette's side.

Luckily it turned out the rest of her class got to know even less abou the situation, only learning that Marinette 'seriously hurt' Adrien.

Still, Marinette wanted nothing more then to go back in time and change how she acted.

Ever since that night Adrien refused to talk to her unless he absolutely had to and even then his words were short and cold.

As Ladybug and Chat Noir things weren't much better between them.

Marinette had been terrified about what would happen if an akuma showed up after their fight due to how Adrien obviously didn't want anything to do with her.

When three days after their fight an akuma finally appeared she was surprised when Chat Noir appeared next to her and asked her if she had a plan.

At first she thought he was warming up to her again but as the battle with the akuma went on she found she was wrong.

Chat was doing whatever she said and protected her but he was much different.

He didn't make a single pun or other joke, didn't goof around, wasn't nearly as gently with protecting her as he used to be and when she tried to offer their usual victory fist-bump be turned around and left without a single word.

It went on like that for the next few akumas until the media managed to corner him and demand to know what was going on.

He had coldly told them oud and clear "Since Ladybug made it clear to me she doesn't want me to be like I used to be, I might as well stop all of it. Ask her for more details if you must." and with that he was gone.

Right away Ladybug was the one being swarmed and she was forced to admit she hurt him by being selfish and only thinking of how she felt and left without saying anything more to keep herself from breaking down crying in front of all those people and maybe even telling them everything she did.

While the media ended up discussing what she might have done, it soon blew over.

At least, for the public but not for Ladybug.

When another akuma showed up Chat made it clear he'd work with her to protect Paris but that he'd only stay professional.

It honestly stung to know how he was now giving her what she had always wanted, right when she didn't want it anymore.

The best she got from him after a victory was a nod.

Marinette was snapped out of her thoughts when she bumped into someone.

Looking up she saw it was Fleur Bellerose, a new girl who happened to be a model who Adrien had often worked with.

She was also someone who Adrien had started dating a few days ago.

"Sorry about that! You okay?" Fleur asked as she looked Marinette up and down.

Marinette didn't want to like Fleur but she still did.

Then again, who wouldn't?

Fleur always looked lovely with large chocolate brown eyes with long, pale fair skin, long waving blonde hair reaching her waist and a figure with curves in all the right places that were shown off by her light grey skinny jeans, purple tank top and blue long-sleeved jean-jacket and brown ankle boots with a little bit of heels under them that made her a little taller.

Not only was the girl gorgeous but she was also really friendly, polite and willing to help people.

Her personality was almost the exactly as what Marinette used to think was all of Adrien except Fleur was also just as much if not more of an goofball as he turned out but she never had to hide that side of her and proudly clowned around, even called herself a weirdo.

Had the situation between herself and Adrien been different, Marinette might have hated Fleur but it wasn't and Marinette understood why the female model was an item with the male one.

She's seen how Fleur goofed around with Adrien, truelly enjoyed it when he flirted with her and encouranged him to be himself without any complaining about anything he did, all of them being things Marinette as both herself and as Ladybug had failed to do.

"Fleur!" Marinette's eyes widened when she saw Adrien running their way.

He stopped when he reached them, leaning on his knees as he tried to catch his breath.

When he managed to breath normally again he looked at his girlfriend with a happy grin but it slipped when he spotted Marinette, even when she tried to smile at him.

He just raised an eyebrow at her before looking at Fleur again.

"Hey, Nino is already waiting for us. I hope you brought those cookies you promised him or else he might freak." he told her and ignoring Marinette he wrapped an arm around Fleur and started leading her away.

"Don't worry! I've brought lots of sugar, Sugar."

"It's really awesome you're bringing us sweet. You really are a sweetheart."

"I know~ They're honey-flavored, Honey."

Marinette watched as the model couple walked away and upon seeing the way Adrien's eyes sparkled when looking at Fleur, she wondered if they used to do the same when he looked at her when they were Ladybug and Chat Noir but that she'd been too hung on Adrien to notice or care.

As if sensing her gaze Adrien looked over his shoulder and their eyes met.

She could see the message in his gaze.

Even if he ever managed to forgive her, he could never love her again and she understood that.

She had her chance lasting more then long enough and she threw it away.

Now she could only hope she could earn his friendship and more importantly his trust back but only time would tell.

She would just have to wait, see and let him be happy with someone else, no matter how much it hurt.

The End

There you have it! An aftermath after last chapter! I hope you like it! Also, I found a site that explaining the meaning of different names in different languages and I used that to name Fleur! "Fleur" means "Flower" and "Bellerose" means "Beautiful rose" in French and I really liked putting that together to name her!
