Adrien's Perspective

I lay in bed wondering if it's worth the risk to try to talk to Marinette more. My love for Ladybug makes me feel reluctant, but my heart still tells me to try. I decide to take a chance so I grab my phone and think of something to text Marinette.

"We weren't really in class today so I don't know what to say... Hey, maybe I'll ask her to borrow the notes from yesterday's physics class! That could spark up a conversation right, Plagg?" I ask confidently.

"Whatever Adrien, I've come to the conclusion that you're a lost cause when it comes to love. Liking two girls at the same time could be dangerous, Camembert is the only true love I need," Plagg says while eating his stinky treat.

I laugh while shaking my head, and I look back at my phone.

Adrien: Hey Marinette, do you have yesterday's notes by any chance? I don't think I got everything. I'll get them from you after school, thanks :) x

Marinette's Perspective

I get a notification on my phone and see that it's from... ADRIEN? I jolt up in bed and carefully read the text he sent me.

Adrien: Hey Marinette, do you have yesterday's notes by any chance? I don't think I got everything. I'll get them from you after school, thanks :) x

Tomorrow after school... TOMORROW?

"Oh no, Tikki! I completely forgot that Luka is meeting me at school tomorrow to rehearse for Kitty Section! I'll just tell him I don't have the notes and he'll ask someone else," I say, smiling nervously.

"Seriously Marinette? Giving him your notes will only take two seconds. Besides, he asked for YOURS!" she beams, twirling in the air happily.

"You're right, giving him my notes would be a very FRIENDLY thing to do, because Adrien is nothing but a FRIEND," I say confidently.

Marinette: Hi Adrien, I won't forget to bring you those notes... Good night :)

"Whatever you say, Marinette! You should get some rest, Ladybug deserves a good night's sleep after saving Paris once again... And you should really try to wake up earlier so you aren't late all the time," Tikki states.

"You're right, good night Tikki!" She lays down on the pillow beside me and I kiss my kwami good night.

Adrien's Perspective

I get a notification from my phone and see that Marinette texted me back.

Marinette: Hi Adrien, I won't forget to bring you those notes... Good night :)

"Hey she said she'll bring them!" I exclaim happily.

I put my phone on my nightstand and adjust myself in bed.

"Come on, Plagg, it's getting late. We'd better go to sleep and get some rest for tomorrow just in case Paris needs Chat Noir again!" I whisper.

"Fine, one more piece of Camembert!" my kwami declares.

I watch him swallow the cheese whole as he makes his way towards my bed. He lays down on the pillow next to me and I give him a pat on the head.

"Night, Plagg!" I say as I turn off my lights.

Nino and I are standing outside the school building before class starts.

"I didn't study at all, that physics test is gonna be the death of me, dude!" Nino groans.

"Hey it probably won't be that bad, you still have time to look back at your notes now," I say encouragingly.

"ADRIEN!" I hear a familiar voice yell. I spin around and see Marinette running and Alya trying to keep up with her best friend. Alya pulls Marinette by the arm and they whisper discretely and finish their conversation with a thumbs up. She leaves Marinette standing a few feet away from where we were standing, and she shoots me a wink as she gets closer.

"Uhh, come on, Nino, we have to err... study for the test coming up!" Alya says nervously, so she grabs her boyfriend's arm and drags him away from me. Nino gives me a pleading look and I can't help but chuckle.

Marinette takes several deep breaths before walking closer to me.

"Are you ok Marinette?" I ask, she's not acting like her normal self. Or maybe she is, she's always jittery but never like this. I watch her take one final deep breath.

"Adrien I... I... I love you! I've loved you since the day I met you and I'll never love anyone else but you. You're the love of my life and I know we're meant to be! We could get married and have a big house and 3 kids and have a pet hamster too! I love you, Adrien Agreste..."

I look at her in complete shock. She's admitted the feelings that I never thought she'd ever feel for me and I couldn't help but smile at her.

"Marinette... I've never realized it until now... I love you. With all my heart. Since the day we met I couldn't get you out of my head. I've always told you that you're just a friend but I always knew you were more than that," I grab her hand and she looks at me in confusion as her cheeks turn a dark shade of red.

"I love you, Marinette," I say, declaring my true feelings for her. Her confusion turns into a smile, and I close my eyes while leaning in for a kiss.

"Adrien..."

"Adrien..."

"ADRIEN!"

My eyes shoot open and I see my kwami directly in front of my face.

"Wake up, Nathalie is going to knock on your door any minute, you don't want to be late for school!" he shouts.

I struggle to come back to reality, the dream felt so realistic. My heart pounding as she confessed her feelings, the feeling of her hand in mine, it all felt too real. I jump out of bed and quickly get ready for school.

"So, Marinette huh?" Plagg teases.

My eyes widen, how did he know I had a dream about Marinette?

"What are you talking about, Plagg?" I say nervously, avoiding eye contact with my kwami as I continue to gather my things.

"You're such a sweet talker, even in your sleep! 'Oh Marinette, I love you!' Pee-yew, this love talk is completely nauseating!" he groans with disgust.

How embarrassing, I was sleep talking? I disregard his teasing comments and continue to get ready for school. I hear a knock on the door and know it's Nathalie telling me that it's time to go to school. I open my shirt, signaling for Plagg to hide and he flies into the pocket. I grab my bag and run to the door.

"Good morning, Nathalie!" I say happily.

"Good morning, Adrien. The car is waiting for you outside. Your father will be working all day so if you have anything to tell him, let me know," she recites.

I nod my head and walk out my front door. My bodyguard is already in the car and I get in the back seat.
