Chapter Text
He couldn't believe he was doing this; He couldn't believe this was happening.
His hands slowly slithered down his lover's back until they were pressed against the girl's hips, as he laid on top of her. Both of their lips were pressed against each other's in a way that made it look like they were locked together.
Adrien heard himself moan when her tongue roughly slid on top of his own. The kiss itself wasn't as soft as the ones this girl had previously gave to him. In fact, it wasn't even close to gentle at all.
Her hands went from his long golden locks, to his jacket's collar, where her fingers gripped down, and tried to bring him closer, but there was no closer than how close they were now. And they weren't ready to make love... yet
All this had started from one sentence Adrien had said to her.
"Je t'aime, Ladybug. I'm in love with you, and only you."
It was small, but it meant the world to not just the superhero ,Ladybug, but to her unbeknown partner, too.
She was the one thing he could love without having to be ignored, or treated like damn property. She was the one thing that could love him back.
She was his good luck--His chance to start a new world. She was his Lady. And only his. And nothing, or nobody could take her away from him. Not even Hawkmoth could.
This was actually one of the first times he was actually glad to be Adrien, and not Chat Noir . She only thought of Chat as her loyal, and bragging partner. The day she broke Chat's heart, was the day she fixed Adrien's.
It was as if they were two different people, maybe even twins once you really think deep into it.
The only thing Chat and Adrien had in common, was that they both loved one person, but only one was chosen. And Adrien was that one.
It shocked him that a simple cold made this all happen to him. It actually made him laugh once at the thought.
'You should get sick more often, then,' Ladybug had teased him.
'Anything for you, Ladybug '
That's when the door opened to the teen's room. The sound of a gasp made them pull away with wide eyes and beat skipping hearts.
"Adrien Agreste!" Nathalie yelled, rage in her voice.
"I-I can explain!"

Weeks Earlier
" Its absolutely amazing how Ladybug just acted like nothing even happened after she and Chat Noir defeated that guy!" Alya began rambling on with excitement, as she was showing Marinette the video she look of the attack.
They both sat at their regular seats in class, probably being the only two in their homeroom at the time since everyone else was either late or at their lockers and talking to their friends. Even the teacher wasn't in the room.
"Ya...It's so amazing..." Marinette sighed, trying to keep her eyes open.
*Why couldn't the akuma have been spawned earlier in the day...? When no one is trying to get some sleep?*
" You alright? You don't seem very excited about this as you usually are!" At first Marinette didn't respond, making Alya think she was ignoring her. But then she let out 'mhm', but that didn't convince her best friend at all.
"What happened? Stayed up late last night?" Alya asked, putting a hand on her friend's back.
"I hate it when new supervillains are made.." Marinette groaned. "Why can't Hawkmoth just freaking do something besides trying to steal my--Their miraculous...? " Marinette caught herself, before looking at Alya, who didn't look suspicious at all.
"I guess he's just desperate," The girl replied.
"To desperate..." Marinette grumbled. Before Alya could say another word, Marientte had placed her head down on the desk, eyes closed.
"Hey dudettes- Wow... What's up with her?" A voice asked, making Marinette look to see Nino, sitting at his desk, turned around and looking at her.
"Rough night..." Was Marinette's only reply.
"Funny, That's the same thing Adrien said this morning!" The raven haired girl only gave a small smile, before closing her eyes again. Alya gasped at this, knowing how much Marinette liked Adrien.
"Okay, something is definitely wrong if your not going all crazy over him!"
"Alya, I'm fine," Marinette repeated with a low tone.
"Sure you are," Alya chuckled, before looking to her left." Oh, good morning, Adrien. "
Marinette could only huff at that.
*Nice try, Alya. Next time, make sure that-*
"Good morning, Alya." Her bluebell eyes snapped wide open, to see the one person she was shocked to see. Blonde hair, emerald green eyes staring into her own. It made her heart want to pound out of her chest. "Hey, Marinette," He greeted.
She gave a smile, before shutting her eyes. Adrien's brow raised at her reaction. Usually, she would have been the one to bounce up and wave uncontrollably at him. "You alright?" He asked, only receiving a small nod from the girl.
"She didn't get to much sleep last night. The villain and all that shit," Alya said for her friend.
"Same here," Adrien chuckled, before sitting down besides Nino. The two fist bumped, greeting each other. Classmates began to walk inside the class, followed by the teacher herself, just before the bell rang.
"Good morning class," Ms. Bustier greeted." Open your books to page two hundred and fifty. "

[Cause why not?]
Marinette's head laid on her locker's door, eyes half open. *I can't focus... I Need to at least get five minutes of sleep... That's all I ask...*
Her eyes slowly shut, but before she could nap, someone tapped her shoulder."Hm?..." Marinette looked behind her to see a short blonde haired girl, with periwinkle eyes, that showed concern.
"Hey Marinette..." Rose said, shyly. "I was wondering if...Maybe you could help me out with something...?" Marinette gave a small smile at the girl, before nodding. "Could you go check on Mylène...? She's been avoiding Ivan all day, and I'm getting worried. Since, you know how close those lovebirds are."
"Alright, I'll see what I can do," Marinette replied. "Where exactly is she, anyways?"
"The last I saw her was in the court yard," A new voice said, making both girls look, to see Alix standing besides Rose.
"Thanks Alix," Marinette thanked, before dashing off toward the direction of the court yard.

Along with some other students who talked to each other, Marinette saw Mylène sitting on an empty bench, alone looking down at the ground. "Hey," Marinette greeted, softly, making the girl look up at her with two curious golden brown eyes. "Mind if I talk to you?"
Mylène nodded, before scooching over so the taller girl could sit beside her. "So... What did you want to talk about?" She asked.
"Rose has been telling me you haven't been acting like yourself lately."
"How so? I'm still a coward," Mylène murmured.
"You've been avoiding Ivan lately, right?" Marinette asked, receiving a sad look. "What's going on?"
"Well...You see..." Mylène started playing with her fingers, before continuing. "Last week, Ivan... He...Asked me out for the first time."
Marinette's eyes widened, as a grin grew on her face. "That's amazing!...But-"
"But...I sort of chickened out, and...Ran off. Ever since then, I've been avoiding Ivan. "
"Because...?"
"Because ...I'm scared that he would lash out at me...Or maybe even, break up...Because he hates me now..." Mylène's eyes began to water at the thought of breaking up with Ivan. She gasped when Marinette suddenly hugged her tightly.
"No, your wrong Ivan still loves you," Marinette quickly said.
"Probably not...He probably found a new girlfriend already..."
"I'm not so sure about that," Marinette replied, before pointing across the room, where a certain lover to Mylène sat, looking as if he had gone threw the hardest part of his life.
Mylène's eyes widened at the sight of Ivan. Never had she seen him look so sad before. "Let's go." Before Mylène could react, Marinette grabbed her arm, and dragged her over to Ivan.
"A-are you sure about this?" The girl asked.
"Positive. Because your the light of his life." A blush fell onto Mylène's cheeks at the sentence. Before she realized it, they were already standing in front of Ivan, who hadn't noticed they were there until Marinette cleared her throat.
"Marinette?" He asked before looking to the girl's side, to see Mylène's head pop out from behind the raven haired girl."....Mylène!" In an instant, he stood up.
"Go on," Marinette whispered to the girl behind her, but all Mylène did was stand in front of Ivan.
"I-Well-You see-I...-"
"She wants to apologize for how she ran off when you asked her out," Marinette said for her friend.
"Is this true?" The boy asked, receiving a nod.
"I'll leave you two alone," Marinette murmured, before walking away. From the distance, she saw both of them hug each other. "Aw," She giggled uncontrollably.
"That was a nice thing to do for them. I guess the rumors are true, then," Someone said behind her.
"Well, it was the least I could--Wait! What rumors!?" She quickly spun around with wide eyes, only to freeze. The son of Gabriel Agreste was the one who had spoken. He had a smile on his face, even though Marinette had practically screeched at him.
"The rumors about how you have a heart made out of gold," He replied, making her blush.
"W-well...I couldn't say it's entirely true..." She muttered, making the boy raise an eyebrow.
"Oh..?" He asked.
"Well, for starters, if my heart was made out of gold, I wouldn't be alive right now," She chuckled, before nervously looked down." And, I've done some...awful things in the past...Things that were, extremely selfish on my part," She muttered, remembering the time she had harshly accused Lila of being friends with Ladybug, and being a superhero called Volpina. She had screamed in the girl's face without any mercy at all.
"Hey," Adrien began, placing a hand on his friend's shoulder, making her look up at her. "We've all have done some bullshit at least once in our lives. Even if we don't remember it. Trust me when I say this, okay?" He asked, staring deep into the girl's eyes, which widened. Never had she heard Adrien curse like that before
"...Okay."
The bell suddenly rang, alerting the two that it was time to be heading to class.
"See you around," Adrien said, before walking off.
"Y-yeah... See you around.." Marinette sighed, before walking the opposite way Adrien left, a big smile on her face. For he, was Marinette's light in the world.
