Miraculous Ladybug: Future

The Morning of the Fashion show

"Don't be bemused! It's just the news!"

Marinette groaned. "Tikki, would you turn the Tv off? I'm trying to sleep!" She rolled over in bed and threw a pillow over her head.

"But, Marinette! Today is a very important day! It's the day of your big fashion show! The one you've been working on for months!" She flew over to the bed, sitting her small red body down on the side table. "You have to get up!"

Marinette tugged the pillow off of her face. "Is it already?" She asked, squinting her eyes to adjust them to the bright gleam of sun coming from the window.

"Yes! Yes it is! Come on, Marinette!" Tikki did her best to pull Marinette from bed, but her efforts were in vain. Tikki was much to small to lift a thimble, much less an entire human being.

"Okay, okay. I'm getting up." Marinette told Tikki with a yawn. After she had groggily used the bathroom, she found herself in the living room, where the news was on. Marinette still felt a sense of pride whenever she saw her best friend's face on the screen. Ayla had achieved her dreams of becoming a reporter.

"And today, of course is the spring fashion show, hosted by our very own Marinette Dupain-Cheng!" Ayla was saying. "She has put together a wonderful collection of clothing that will be modeled by many people, including, the well known Adrien Agreste."

Marinette felt her heart pang softly. There was nothing ever between the two of them, they had not dated or anything like that, but Marinette used to have a crush on Adrien, back when they were teens. That, of course was over now. Silly, it would be, to still have feelings for your old highschool crush. Some might even call it absurd. Wrong. Especially when you have a boyfriend.

"To be in attendance will be other popular names such as, Dj Nino, my fiance, who will be in charge of the music." Marinette smiled. Nino had proposed to Ayla last month. "Kagami Tsurugi, renowned fencer and model." Marinette's smile disappeared. Kagami and Adrien were dating. still. "Even Chloe Bourgeois, former mayor, Andre Bourgeois's, daughter. And of course everyone's favorite rocking cat band, Kitty Section will be performing. We now cut to an interview of their lead guitarist, Luka Couffaine."

Marinette told herself she should be happy. As the screen cut to luka's face, she told herself this should be the man she felt for. The man she loved. He was her boyfriend. Yet, her mind wandered back to her old stupid school crush, Adrien Agreste. Adrien and her hadn't even spoken in years. Not since he found out his father was Hawkmoth. He practically cut everyone off after that.

"If your girlfriend, Marinette is watching right now, what do you want to say to her?" Ayla asked Luka.

Luka directed his vision at the screen. "Marinette, love, if you're watching this, I love you! Can't wait to see you tonight, your designs are amazing and I know you're gonna knock it out of the park!"

Marinette swallowed. Yes, this was who she wanted. She forced a small smile as she watched the interview end and the screen cut back to Ayla.

"Well, that's all for now, I will see you all later for the evening report. I'm Ayla Cesare and this is Tvi news.."

"Marinette! No more watching Tv! You must get ready for the fashion show!"

"Alright, Tikki, I'm going, I'm going."

There was no need to get ready much. The stylists were set to do her hair and makeup. The only thing Marinette had to do was shower. After throwing on some sweats and making a coffee, Marinette was just about ready to go. There were still some things she had to finalize before the show so she needed to arrive soon. But before she left, she had to check on something.

Marinette went over to her closet and pulled out a large brown box, she pulled an odd, oval shaped red chest with black spots out. Setting it down on her desk, she pressed it and all at once, the kwamis sprung out. They bunched around Marinette, talking rapidly.

"Marinette! Marinette!" Trixx called.

"Marinette, good morning!" Annouced Wayzz.

"Marinetteeeee, is today not your big ssssshow?" asked Sass.

Plagg went over to Tikki. "Hey, sugarcube."

"Hello, stinky socks."

Plagg burped, causing Tikki to gag.

Marinette giggled. "Hey guys, calm down!" She waved them away with her hand. "Yes, yes. Today is my fashion show, I just wanted to make sure you all were still in here and safe. I have a bit of a bad feeling about today, and I just hope you all are all right because I'm going to be gone for a few hours."

"Where are we going to go?" Asked Plagg sarcastically.

"I don't know, Plagg, I just...you know..." Marinette smiled at the small black cat kwami. Once she and Catnoir had defeated Hawkmoth, Plagg was back living in the miracle box and now with her. She had come to love his funny personality. "Also, I want to take you Plagg, you know, just in case."

"Are you sure, Marinette? I know you are guardian, but it is unwise to take two miraculous's with you out. Especially on a day like this." Advised Wayzz.

"I know. But...I have this feeling...I'm just going to trust my gut." Marinette said.

Wayzz nodded. "Whatever you say, guardian."

Marinette sighed and grabbed the black cat ring, putting it in her bag. "Well then, you two. In."

Plagg groaned. "Why am I going in again?"

Tikki shoved him a bit. "In!"

Tikki and Plagg disappeared into their respective jewelry boxes. Marinette closed her purse. "Okay, now the rest of you."

Once all of the kwamis were back in the miraculous box, Marinette re-hid it. "Okay." Marinette thought out loud. let's go.
