Adrien had been Marinette's tutor for quite a while now, ever since she had flunked that Math test, Ms. Bustier had decided to let him tutor her. Since then, they had been meeting up at her house after school, studying together.

The girl had improved indefinitely, and that was mainly because of the way he taught her. Not only was it easy to understand, but he also liked to flirtingly joke around with her too.

This was also how she ended up catching feelings for him.

She knew it was probably all completely joking, but she still felt it, she couldn't deny it.

They were sat down on the floor, Marinette's notebook open and they were working on equations. He asked her the fifth one, which she then had gotten wrong.

"Uh oh," he said, alarming the bluenette. "What? Did I do something wrongly??"

"Purr-cisely, you mixed up the formula with a different method," he informed, slipping a pun in.

She rolled her eyes with a chuckle at it, shaking her head. "There's at least one cat pun every single day, what is up with that?" she asked exasperatedly.

"Well, I do love cats, and puns, so, viola," he replied with a flourish, then twirling his pen in his right hand, looking over Marinette's shoulder to see how she did it.

When she realised he was watching, she clicked her tongue, looking over at him. "Don't watch me do it please," she pleaded, only to have the blonde look at her in amusement.

"Why? Do I make you nervous?" he teased jokingly, but she took it quite seriously the first few seconds the sentence registered into her head.

"Pfft, what? No!" she nudged him, and he flinched back.

"Ouch, hey!" he protested with a laugh. "I was joking!" Adrien shook his head, pulling himself back to his original spot on Marinette's right.

"Well I was too, now let me finish this question without having you literally breathing into my neck!"

"Okay, okay, yeesh!" he put his hands up in defeat, slightly distancing himself from the girl and playing with his pen while he waited.

"Done!" the bluenette exclaimed about two minutes later, a triumph smirk etched on her face.

"I dare you to tell me that this is wrong," she said confidently, handing him her book.

He scanned it. No mistakes. Though, he did want to mess with her a little...

"It's wrong," he said to her, attempting to hold back laughter with a grin.

"What?!?" she exclaimed, reaching out to snatch the notebook back when he held it up higher.

"Adrien!" she snapped, crawling over and standing on her knees to reach up to it when he also got up, laughter escaping.
