Switched

Chapter 2: Marinette's POV

   An alarm blasted through a phone speaker. I looked at the screen, it said 6:30 A.M., but I don't remember setting it at that hour. The smell of rotten eggs traveled up my nose, and it smelled like Chat Noir. I wanted to sleep more, but my bed (which had become wider overnight) and my room felt colder than it used to, despite my own body warmth. 
   "Hey, Adrien," a strangely familiar voice said. "You might want to get up before Nathalie drags you out."
   "What?" My voice was several octaves lower than it was last night. I sat up, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. I looked all around. This wasn't my room, it's Adrien's. I could see trophies and fencing posters everywhere. There was a huge TV and a couch right in front of it. I got out and walked to the bathroom as fast as I could. I switched with Adrien? More importantly, Adrien knows I'm Ladybug? This is a disaster, a disaster, a disaster. I look around for whoever said that I might want to get up earlier, but I didn't see anyone. Maybe an automated system? No, it couldn't be. It sounded like Plagg. After the few encounters I've had with him, I'm sure I could recognize his voice. I look back at the mirror and I stare at my reflection. I now owned his gorgeous emerald eyes and his blonde hair that was as shiny as gold. Sun- kissed skin and peach blushed cheeks. Plagg flew over to me, holding a huge piece of some type of rotten, smelly cheese. Why was Plagg here? Adrien was Aspik, but that soon changed when he told me to find someone else to be the snake Miraculous holder. That's when Luka, who made an excellent Viperion, walked over and I handed the Miraculous to him. Neither one of the holders, besides Chat Noir and I, are permanent ones.
   "Are you gonna stand there and stare at yourself or are you gonna shower and change like you do every morning?" Plagg asked. When I didn't respond, he groaned and went over to one of the drawers and grabbed a T-shirt, jeans, and a jacket. He also handed me Adrien's shoes and pushed me to shower. I looked at my (or I guess his) right hand. On the ring finger rested a simple, silver ring. Something I never noticed before. I asked Plagg why I had a ring.
   "Hey, Plagg," I started. "Why do I have a ring?" He looked at me in disbelief.
   "Kid, you've got to be kidding me! It's your Miraculous. Don't you remember? You're Chat Noir. I knew you were dumb, but I didn't know you were that dumb."
   "Oh, right. Sorry, I forgot," I said. Well, this was certainly interesting.
   After I got out of the shower, changed, and did anything else that I needed to, I went downstairs for breakfast. Just a croissant and tea. Well, not much different from my usual one, except I run out the door with a croissant in my mouth (which I sometimes drop). I took two bites before I realized that I had to go if I wanted to make everything seem like normal. I grabbed his book bag from the floor and Plagg flew inside. His bodyguard was already there waiting for me. It was 7:15 when I got to school. Well, that's a first, but then again, I am following Adrien's schedule.
   Nino and Alya were already there, waiting for either one of us to show. 
   "Hey, dude," Nino greeted. I waved and smiled in response. I really needed to talk to Adrien.
   By the time the bell was about to ring, I see myself running from the corner of my eye. Did I always look like a zombie in the morning?
   "You guys go ahead. I'll catch up with you in a minute, just need to talk to Adri- Marinette." I corrected myself. 
   "Okay, see ya." Alya said. They walked inside the school, hand in hand.
   As soon as they were out of earshot, I turned to him (her?) and started freaking out.
   "Do you know what happened? Did Tikki tell you? Please tell me she told you!" I exclaimed.
   "Okay first of all, calm down and no I don't know. Also, hate to break it to you, but no she hasn't said anything. We didn't have time. It was already 7:15 and I only had fifteen minutes to get ready. By the way how do you do that?" He asked. "Didn't Plagg say anything? Wait, don't answer that. I know him and I know for a fact that he didn't say anything because he wanted to see us freak out. Isn't that right, Plagg?" The little kwami got out of the bag, holding a piece of Camembert, and smiled.
   "Yep" he answered.
   "Also, one more question. Why is Tikki with you?"
   "Why is Plagg with you? You're Aspik" I responded.
   "And you're Multimouse!... I have something to tell you. I'm Chat Noir." He said.
   "Yeah, I figured," I said. "Check your ears- he lifted his (my? I don't know, this is confusing) hands up to  touch the earrings that were there- I own the Ladybug Miraculous." I told him.
   "You... you're Ladybug? I've been in love with you this whole time?"
   "Looks like it."
