"Ready to go?" He smiled, opening the door for her.
"Of course! Where are we going anyway?" She smiled back, walking outside.
Adrien followed behind her, closing the door behind him, and walked to his car. He opened the door for her as a light blush started to form. She got in the car, feeling like a real princess as he shut the door for her as she sat down. He walked around and got in the driver's seat and started the car, letting silence answer her question.
"Adrien? Is this a guessing game?" Marinette rolled her eyes at his foolish games.
"Hm... would you like it to be? I had some things in mind, but if you wanted to guess you can try." He smiled.
Marinette turned her gaze to Adrien and she could tell his hands were a little shaky. He was nervous. Was he nervous because of the date?
That couldn't be it. They have been dating for over a year now. Oh... He was nervous about meeting Ladybug that night.
Aw man...
Marinette sighed and leaned her head on his shoulder as she looked out the car window. In between the silence, they stopped for breakfast, but still, Marinette remained quiet. Thinking about how nervous and anxious he was about seeing who Ladybug was going to be later that night.
"Are you ok? What's the matter?" He asked, feeling her head leaning on his shoulder as he was driving.
"It's nothing. I'm..."
Marinette could hear the worry in his voice. He was worried about her. This would be alright. He would be so happy to know she was ladybug tonight. They were going to have an amazing date and then she was going to have her big reveal. This would be perfect. Come on Marinette. You can do this!
"I'm just thinking about where we're going is all."
Adrien smiled and continued driving until they pulled up to a little parking lot near a little diner that she had never eaten at before and it sparked her interest. She sat up from his shoulder and looked around, she didn't know where she was. It was exciting yet... dangerous. If there was an Akuma, she wouldn't know where to go to transform or if she needed help... she wouldn't know where to go get the miracle box from her secret hiding spot.
"Well... we're here." He smiled, parking the car and stepping out.
"Where... are we exactly?" Marinette laughed, seeing Adrien walk around the car and open her car door for her.
Marinette stepped out of the car and watched Adrien shut the door behind her. He locked the car door and took hold of her hand as he pulled her gently toward where they were going, still not answering her question. As they walked the streets, they passed by many shops and diners.
Every time she thought they were going to be going into one store they would simply pass right by it. She eventually stopped looking for a shop or diner and just waited patiently for where they were going and enjoyed the time they were spending together.
"Alright... now we're here. For real." He laughed lightly, stopping outside of a fancy little restaurant and winery.
"Wine?" Marinette said.
"Yeah! Have you ever been to a wine tasting?" He smiled.
Marinette shook her head and his eyes lightened as he led her inside, excited to be doing her first wine experience with her.
"You didn't actually have any idea where we were going, did you?" Marinette laughed.
"I just kept driving until something piqued our interest. The wine tasting and shopping sounded like a neat little date. I'm assuming it was a good choice?"
