🐞 POV

Marinette's face went pale. Before she knew it, she wasn't holding Chat Noir in her arms anymore. She was holding Adrien Agreste. Her jaw dropped open and released a inhuman sound sounding noise. She was about to scream. Before she made any noise, he made sure to slap his hand over to mouth so she'd scream into that instead.

He used his other hand to put strands of hair behind her ear. She erupted in red once he smiled. She had never thought about this with him before. But now she knows..

Chat equals Adrien.

Adrien equals Chat.

Adrien is a flirty cat.

Chat is a sunshine boy.

"..Ad..r...ie..n..?" her voice died in her mouth as she studied the boy in her arms. Checking more than twice that she wasn't seeing things. Oh my god, this means that he has those scars in his back. This also means that Luka and him were fighting over ME. This means I was calling the love of my life "just a friend" this entire time. This means that he used to stutter around me because he had a CRUSH on me. This is why I made him so flustered on the day of the "ship and dip" incident. "This means you.. oh god.. a-almost four years of.." Adrien placed a hand on her cheek as she felt a tear go down her cheek. "how did yo-you handle fo-four years of me calling you.."

"Because knowing that we were friends was enough for me at the time." he replied sadly, wiping away her tear with his thumb. She pulled him who was still in her lap into a suffocating hug, trying to burn her guilt over the last four years. "Does this change anything?" he asked wearily, seeming to be scared that she might push him away.

"Well, yes of course." the color fell from his face, but kept listening anyway. She combed his hair with her fingers again. "We get to spend a lot more time together without needing to be sneaky." she heard a soft purr come from him, and she blushed.

"Oh yeah, school is coming back next week." Adrien soon said aloud, making Marinette groan. His eyes closed, his purrs now louder and hugging onto her tighter. "Easier way for us to hang out with each other, princess."

"If you'll stop with the lovey-dovey stuff can I be released from Adrien's outer shirt?"

Adrien's purrs immediately stopped as he slightly pulled away, staring at the black kwami poking his head out of his shirt.

He looked up at the baker's daughter. "Do you have any camembert here by chance?"

Her boyfriend nosed his face in her chest and groaned. She giggled and nodded, at the kwami but was amused by what he was doing. The black, mini sized cat flew off to somewhere. Either to get away from the lovebirds, find some cheese, or find Tikki.

"By the way, I think we're getting off track here." he told her firmly. "Now who took that-"

She immediately released him from her grasp and shoved him off her bed. Once he hit the floor, a strange sound came from his mouth, "Ackh!" she looked down to see him face first on her floor, looking quite dead. She giggled at this, receiving an annoyed grunt from the previously spandex covered boy.

"Sorry, mon chaton." she said, cupping her cheek with her hand. "Hey.. don't you have a photo shoot today? I remember you talking about it last week."

He suddenly flipped over and stared at her. "This isn't over."

"Yes, I think it is."

"Jolie femme, please." his eyes shone innocence, but she knew they were not.

"Out."

"Please—"

"Get out and go do your fridging job!"

"Fine, fine! Plagg, claws out!"

"UUghHh!"

🐱 POV

"Dude, why are you so late?" Nino asked as Adrien came rushing towards him, nearly crashing into him and making them fall straight into the concrete. They were in front of the Eiffel Tower, with a whole photo shoot set up.

As he barely regained his breath, he slouched down and placed his hands in his knees trying to stay in balance. "Tired.." he lost his breath again. "Slept.."

"Yuh-huh?" he looked up to see his best friend with a quirked eyebrow and an amused look on his face. "Please, go on." he took out his phone and waved in front of him. "Maybe you'll regain your balance if I told you that I invited Alya and Marinette to see you." he then said in a sing-songy voice.

Adrien's eyebrows shifted uneasily. A week or two ago, he would've rushed to clean himself up. But now, they were dating and she knew his secret, so what is there to be afraid of now that he knows that she likes him back?

"Okay." he says calmly, catching Nino off guard. "Let me just get my phone." he quickly got out his phone to text something to his girlfriend.

He stares at his phone intensely until it vibrates,

Mari❤️: Yeah.. sorry I didn't tell you. But, I was wondering if we were going to reveal our relationship to Alya and Nino? I didn't want to do it without your consent.

He took a change to see Nino's confused face. His eyebrows quirked. "What?" he shot at him, and he just put his arms up in defense. He looked back at his phone.

Adrien🐈‍⬛❤️: We could, bet on Alya and Nino wouldn't be surprised?

Mari❤️: Bro, you kidding? I would loose instantly.

Adrien🐈‍⬛❤️: Lol, Nino is giving me weird looks.

Mari❤️: Ayo, same. Alya won't stop giving me suspicious looks.

Mari❤️: I'm going to stop texting now, we're almost here.

Mari❤️: See you in a sec, mon précieux minou. 💚

Adrien🐈‍⬛❤️: See you, ma myrtille. 💙

Nino, again, launched himself at Adrien to try to get him to drop his phone so he could see who he was texting, but every time  her barely budged and quirked an eyebrow and smirked at him every single time he failed. And he kept failing. For someone who can be very clumsy, he has his Chat Noir aide to help him stay balanced, and it also was helpful at times. Being flung halfway across Paris a lot can really change your physical state. In a good way. He's not sure. Is there good to be flung halfway across Paris by— most of the time, not all the time —your own best friend?

"Dude, seriously." he broke out of his thoughts upon hearing his voice. "You're so clumsy, how are you so strong?"

He shrugged. "Puberty."

"That was five years ago.." he trailed off, very confused.

"WHAT?!! YOU AND ADRIEN ARE DATING?!?"

Oh no.
