Marinette plopped down on her bed. So much unwanted memories had surfaced that she would rather forget: but it was kinda a good think. After all, remembering what had caused her continuing panic attacks had kept her from yet again avoid another one of Monarch's attempts to Akumatize her. She and Adrien had their first quasi-date at the pool...the place where she had her heart broken. Not to mention almost drowning and humiliated. But it was that day that she decided that she made a vow.
A vow that she will never tell another boy that she loves him before knowing everything about him. Whether he's kind or not, thoughtful, what he does outside of school and with whom, and knows everything about him. His birthday, all his first names, his schedule, his favorite things! And above all, to make sure that he is NOT friends with ChloƩ.
"I'm so sorry that happened to you, Marinette," Tikki sympathized with Marinette: she rested her body on her owner's head.
"Kim had given me a box that turned out to be filled with spiders and I screamed, tripping backwards and falling into the pool." Marinette explained, not meeting Tikki's eyes as she poke.
Once the pigtailed bluenette had finished telling her story, she finally met her kwami's hotties yet defiled sky blue gaze.
"HE DID WHAT?!" Tikki nearly shrieked in outrage. "Why the hell would Chloe do something as stupid as that?"
Tikki was glowing red with anger. She was so mad that she felt as if she was going to explode.
She wanted so badly to go to this boy, Kim's house, and giving him a lesson he'll never forget: but she deep down, the little ladybug kwami knew that her holder wouldn't like I knows t if she used her powers without being combined with her Miraculous.
Marinette sighed sadly and stared down at her hands, such were clasped in her lap. "It was Kim who believed the stupid prank." She muttered with a dry laugh. "He's a damn fool!"
"Can I please go kick his ass Mari?" Tikki pleaded with her holder, her eyes shining with a mix of fury and a whole lot of protective rage. Nobody hurts her ladybugs. And Tikki will make the person who hurt her sweet bug regret ever being born.
"No Tikki I can't allow you to do that." The bluenette sighed softly and raised her eyes in a sneaky kind of way. "But you can give him a small punishment."
A wicked grin spread across the little ladybug kwami's face and she rubbed her paws together with a manic glee min her eyes.
"What do you have in mind?" She her charge with an edger smile forming on her face. "Come tell me! Tell me! Tell me!" She pleaded while using the kitty-cat eyes.
Marinette thought for a moment before she spoke up and met her kwami's expecting gaze. "We might need some help from Shadybug and Claw Noir." She eventually told her little kwami friend.
Tikki blinked up at her, her sky blue eyes shining with confusion. "Bugs how are we gonna contact them from our world?" Tikki asked the girl with a raised eyebrow.
Marinette shrugged her shoulders and narrowed her eyes in thought. "I'm not sure Tikki, but we'll think of a way to get in contact with them." She eventually replied after a few moments of awkward silence.
Tikki nodded her head and landed in the top of her owner's head, playing with some of the loose strands of Marinette's blue-black hair.
