'You're a carousel'

Luka had transformed using Kaalki allowing Ladybug and Rena through the portal before moving their equipment back onto 'The Liberty' apparently it had all been cleared with Adrien and the glasses would be returned as soon as whatever this thing was had finished.

She looked over to Rena Rouge and her heart fluttered at the sight of all the roses. He was telling a story. Letting her know exactly when he felt a spark or a fire ignite for her, the yellow and red tip rose making her smile as she thought about the indication.

"Ok, so it's not actually the carousel we're looking for?" Rena asked, looking around the park. They'd headed straight there, Ladybug sure that's where the next clue would be.

"No, it'll be the statue. It's a big deal to both of us."

"I don't know why?" Rena said with a shrug, "we all have huge, monutenal, bronze statues of ourselves. It's such an ordinary thing."

"No need for the sarcasm," Ladybug laughed, moving towards the statue. She caught a glimpse of the boulargie and her parents (and Emma) glaring out the window. What was going on today? She would have understood if it was a big birthday, like she was turning 21 or 30, but she was 23. It all seemed very extra, but then again this was Chat Noir she was talking about.

Chat Noir's ideas with Adrien Agreste's money was a lethal combination.

"Girl, come here! You're not going to believe this!"

Ladybug left her spot looking around the back of the statue to where Rena was indicating. Ladybug looked up and gasped. Her husband was a complete ass! Which is where he'd so willingly stuck the next rose. Yes, that's right, her husband had a rose positioned between his bronzed butt cheeks.

She looked over at Rena who was holding back tears of laughter, Ladybug joining in as she climbed the statue and took the red and white rose from his bronzed buttocks. Red and white - unity.

Shaking her head she continued to look, finally finding the next clue.

'You're a wishing well.'

"Easy!" Ladybug said, jumping down and running to the fountain. The fountain where they'd hid from Gorilla andAdrien's crazy fans ten years ago.

Ironically, the fountain was drained once again. A folded pair of pyjamas sitting alone waiting for someone to come and collect them, someone she was most certain was her. Parkouring over the side like it was a 10 foot wall, she made her way to them and lifted them up. Woah, she wouldn't even get a leg in them these days.

"Where the hell did he find these?" She was shocked to say the least. She hadn't worn these since she was 15.

"Okay, I'm starting to get curious now," Rena said, bending beside Ladybug and lifting a hot pink rose, twirling it around in her fingers - thanks and appreciation.

"Right?" Ladybug said, holding the top in front of her body.

"Try all you want my friend, but you're not fitting in that." They both laughed, before doing the same with the bottoms. Rena slapped Ladybug on the tush before handing her the card which had been attached to the rose.

'And you light me up, when you ring my bell'

"The Eiffel Tower," Rena squealed before Ladybug could even begin to think what the clue could have been. "It's so obvious. 'Light me up' is the Eiffel Tower, and also the place you've rang his bell the most. I know because I made a compilation of them last month, and I also now know you don't follow my blog anymore because you would have known too."
