Fille de mes rêves (Girl of my dreams)

Chapter three: Adrien

Yes I know you guys didn't get a chapter two with Chat's POV. Ikkkk pls don't take it to heart besties 🕺
Anyways, I don't really know where I'm going with this chapter so this outta  be good 😐

Btw I have Instagram 😩😩 it's bug.q.boo so follow if you want to! On with the story:

"Claws in" I said as I jumped through my window. I had a lot of fun with Marinette tonight. I wish I could hang out with her like that all the time, but when I'm Adrien, she always stutters and isn't her real self. When she's around Chat, she's so much more confident and fun. I wish I understood why.

"Plagg this is so confusing. I don't know why she can't just be herself around me."

"Well you aren't exactly yourself around her either Adrien." Plagg retorted as he grabbed some Camembert from a cabinet.

"Fair point. I should really change that."

"Maybe you should try and tell her tomorrow that you want both of you to be yourselves around each other. Be more comfortable. That way your project will be done better or something. I don't know."

"That's genius Plagg! Thank you!"

"Yeah yeah whatever. Don't get too cheesy, k?" The kwami said as he laid down in his pillow. "I'm tired and you've got a long night ahead of you tomorrow so I suggest we get some sleep.

•••• Mari's POV ••••

"Tiki I'm so nervous." I said as I paced my room. It was now Sunday morning. It was 1 an and Adrien was supposed to come get me soon. This project was either going to be really easy or really hard so I hoped he would get here quick. "What if I make a total fool of myself in front of Adrien? I still don't even know which site I want to choose for the actual project! Ugh this is a total disaster!!"

"Calm down Marinette! It'll all be okay! You're going to have a lot of fun, I promise!!" Tiki exclaimed, trying to settle my nerves.

There was a small tap at my trap door and I looked at Tiki, confused. Tiki shrugged and flew to my purse. I grabbed my small purse and slid on my flats. I opened the door slightly to see Adrien staring at me, his hand extended to help me up. I took it and he lifted me up with ease.

"How did you get up here?" I asked dumbfounded.

He pointed to a rope. "I did gymnastics for a little while growing up. One of the drills was rope climbing."

I smiled. What can't he do? "So, how do we get down?"

"Well, we either climb down separately, you hold onto me while I climb, or I climb down and you jump and I catch you. Whichever one." He said with a smirk.

I rolled my eyes, the first time I've ever done that to him. "Umm well, I've never had rope climbing training so I guess that kills option number one. I'd rather not jump and die so I guess that kills option three."

"Hey now, I said I'd catch you." He said, continuing to smirk.

"I'd rather not play with death Agreste."

"So I guess that leaves option two."

"Great. How do think we should do this." I asked, blushing but trying to hide it.

"Easy. Hold onto me and I'll climb is down. Then we can start walking."

"Considering we don't die and we do make it down." I corrected.

He rolled his eyes but smiled at me.

Look at yourself Marinette! You're not stuttering! Atta-girl!

"Okay, let's do this."

Adrien picked me up and I held onto him, my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. I could feel the blood rushing to my cheeks and my heart beating faster faster.

Adrien slowly climbed down, occasionally complaining about how tough the rope was on his hands, but we made it down safely. "There we go madam." Adrien said as he helped me down.

"Thanks for this Adrien. I can already tell our project is going to be amazing."

"I feel the same Marinette." He smiled sweetly at me.

"So uh- where should we go?" I asked. "It's almost 1:30 am which means not many places are open so historical sights might be difficult to come by."

"Fair point. Oh! Before I forget!" Adrien reached into his pocket and pulled out a ring. "Ms. Bustier said we had to have matching things for the pictures, and while I couldn't find the exact replica of my ring, I was able to have one similar made for you. I hope that's okay." He handed me a small silver ring, almost identical to the one he was wearing. I had never even noticed he wore a ring before.

"Oh! Um- y-yes! T-thank you! I totally forgot about that part of the assignment!" I stammered as I picked up the ring and slid it on my finger.

Adrien smiled at me and grabbed my hand. "Alright, let's go ahead and walk while we figure out where we want to go."

"O-okay."

As we walked, we both shared stories about ourselves to get to know each other better. He asked me if I had ever dated anyone before. I blushed and decided to share my story. " well, actually,  one time in kindergarten , I liked this boy and he promised to be my knight in shining armor since I was his princess. He even gave me a little necklace with a tiara on it. He ended up moving away. In 2nd grade, he came back and I greeted him, and he had totally forgotten about me! I showed him the necklace and he told me that he was sorry but he'd never be a knight since he was already king. He also ended being a total douche bag as we got older. He did move back to London in 5th grade so at least I was saved by that."

"Ooof what a knight-mare." Adrien chuckled.

"Oh ew that was terrible" I laughed. "I don't think I've ever heard you make a joke before."

"Well you can't expect someone to be serious all the time."

"Well sure, but aren't you?" I asked, playing with my hair. I had accidentally forgotten to put it up so it was down to my shoulders.

"I'm actually not. Well, it's not the real me. I'm supposed to portray this sweet, kind, and serious kid. It's what the world wants to view me as, where in reality, I'm not. I mean I'm kind and sweet I guess, but not serious. I'm goofy, fun, flirtatious, outgoing, not boring and serious. But I've never gotten to know anyone so well that they knew that about me. Well, except for Nino." He turned towards me and took both of my hands into his. "And you. I hope that's okay."

I nodded my head. "Yeah. I think that's okay."

"Can we make a deal then?" He asked.

"Depends on what it is Adrien." I said with a sly smirk. Two could play at his flirt game.

He smiled wide "we both get to be ourselves around each other. Okay?"

I nodded my head. "Okay."

"Great, now where do you think we should start?"

I seriously don't know what I just wrote since I'm half asleep. If it makes no sense or it's just over all sucky, I apologize 😀 but overall I hope it was okay and you somewhat enjoyed it!

Until next time Homies! Bye!!!
