The library is empty during free period. Usually there's more people in here, and I assume people will begin to show up once they see that Adrien has entered.

He comes and sits down at a table with me and looks at the book I'm reading.

"What class is that for?" He asks.

"Home ec, it's all the ways to properly fold laundry." I say bluntly.

Adrien groans, "that sounds horrible."

I shrug, "one of us has to be the house-wife."

Adrien laughs and kisses me. I touch his cheek with my hand with makes him smile against my lips.

"That was brave of you, what if someone saw?" I ask, grinning.

"I doubt anyone did." Adrien says calmly.

**

But oh were we wrong.

The bell rings and Nino runs to Adrien and grabs his shoulders, "dude! You're Gay!?"

The color drains from Adrien's face, "what? Who told you that?"

"Someone posted a picture of you and Akira making out on Instagram." Alya explains.

Oh no, nonono. This can't be happening. Adrien isn't ready for this.

"It's probably edited." Adrien says, trying his best not to sound horrified.

"Who would even do that? Bitch behavior." I cross my arms.

Marinette speaks up, "Come on Akira, everyone knows you're openly gay, and you and Adrien spend a lot of time together, is it true?"

Adrien looks at me. I don't know what to tell her, I can't out my boyfriend.

"I need to go." Adrien says and runs off.

I hope he has his spare key to my apartment, I'm going to find whatever bitch did this.

"Who posted it." I demand.

Alya shrugs, "no one knows."

I clench my hands into fits, "I'm going to find them. If that whore thinks they got away with this, they're fucking stupid."

I have an idea who did it, and I head to her locker.

"Lila." My voice is cold and dangerous.

"Hey, Akira! Are you okay? I saw that post of you and Adrien." She says, faking sympathy.

I'm tempted to kick her knee cap, "don't give me that. You took that picture and posted it."

"Why would you say that? I would never try to embarrass Adrien." She cries.

"YES YOU FUCKING WOULD!" I shout, "DONT EVEN TRY ME LILA!"

Something enters my choker necklace, and I know what it is. An akuma. Fuck, I let my anger get out of control.

"Hello Akira, I am Hawkmoth." A voice says.

"Go to hell!" I snap, trying to fight the akuma out of my head.

"I know you're upset Akira, I can help you protect your loved ones from people like Lila." Hawkmoth continues.

"I don't need your help!" I reply.

But I'm not strong enough. Purple consumes me and I can no longer think straight (not that I was, I'm fucking gay).

Adrien POV

I stop running. I left my Angel back at school. I turn to run back but stop in my tracks. A tall, white figure stands in front of me.

"Hello Adrien, I am Memory. I can help you keep your secret." It says.

"Akira?" I ask in disbelief.

It clicks its tongue, "no no no, Akira is gone. Only Memory."

"Give me my Angel back!" I spit.

Memory ignores me. He stands up and beings walking around Paris, blasting anyone with a pink ray of light.

I can fix this.

I transform into Chat Noir and take off into the air. I quickly run into Ladybug.

"Chat Noir! Who is that?" She demands.

I breath heavily, "Akira. Adrien's boyfriend, he's trying to erase everyone's memory of them dating, I think." I only say that last part because I don't want Ladybug to suspect anything about me being Adrien.

Ladybug nods, "okay, I have an idea."

"I have a better one." I interrupt and jump to the ground.

The akuma must be in the choker, I mean, call me a genius but that seems like a pretty logical place.

I swing by Memory and try to locate the necklace.

"Adrien, get out of here!" Memory hisses.

"No! I'm not leaving you!" I snap.

I look again for the necklace. The purple butterfly appears on Memory's face. I can't hear what Hawkmoth is saying but Memory replies with, "no! I'm not hurting him!"

He fights against the akuma and I see the choker. I snatch it and break it in half. Akira falls to the ground.

Ladybug joins me instantly, "how did you do that?"

I shrug, "Cat instincts?" It sounds more like a question, but who cares.

She laughs and takes off. I detransform and pick Akira up in my arms. His body shakes with fear.

"I've got you, it's okay." I whisper.

"I'm sorry, Sunshine, I didn't want to give in." Akira tightens his arms around me.

I run his back gently, "I know. It's hard, but you were still in there, I knew it," I look my Angel in the eye, "I love you."
