Behind The Mask (Reader X Catnoir ff)

chapter 14

Pov Adrien:

The next morning after all the chaos, I was walking down the stairs of the Agreste estate when I noticed my father complaining about the size of an outfit. He hit a book with his fist and then put it back in the safe. When he left the room, I sneaked in unnoticed. "What was that just now? I've never seen that book before." Plagg opened the safe, looked around inside and threw the book to me. "Let's find out," Plagg said. I caught it and immediately inspected it more closely. When I noticed someone coming, I quickly put it in my bag and closed the safe again.

Pov y/n:

It was a normal day at the Françoise Dupont School. I entered the classroom and immediately noticed that there was a new student in the room. The others were whispering and casting curious glances at her.

"This is Lila," the teacher introduced. "She's new here. Why don't you sit next to Adrien."

I watched Lila smile charmingly and sit down in the empty seat next to Adrien. Something about her made me uneasy, but I couldn't put my finger on what it was.

During recess, the students gathered around Lila. She told fascinating stories about her alleged adventures and claimed to be close friends with Ladyluna.

"I'm Volpina, the superhero with the powers of the fox," she boasted.

I listened to her skeptically. These lies could get the real heroes into trouble, I thought. Adrien also seemed to have doubts. Adrien and Lila seem to have known each other for a long time.

Alya points to Lila, who is currently with Adrien, "I had an interview with her earlier for my Ladyluna blog, she told me how she was saved by Ladyluna."

I wondered out loud how Adrien could fall in love with Lila and what terrible consequences that could have that I would then have to endure. How can it be that I'm so interested in this?

Adrien and Lila go to the library and I follow them but then someone stops me "where are you going so quickly?" Alya asked me "I just want to know where you're going." I explained to her "fine but be careful not to get caught"

When I got there I looked for Lila while Loup watched Adrien. When Adrien took out a book, the book that Loup obviously knew, she floated onto a bookshelf. "Y/n! This book is the one by Master Fu that disappeared a long time ago"

Lila comes to Adrien and notices the book that Adrien is covering with another book, she takes it and looks at it.

Full of frustration and panic I accidentally bump into a trolley of books that I had been hiding behind the whole time so I could eavesdrop on Lila better.

"How about we meet later in the park?" Lila asked Adrien, anger boiled inside me and I accidentally pushed the trolley away again. Luckily I was able to hide under the table in time.

Then Adrien dropped the bag and I noticed Lila grabbing the book with her foot and then gave adrien his bag back. Lila took the book with her and left the room.

"I have to tell Adrien that Lila took the book" but Loup stopped me "I'd rather take a closer look at it because it's very important. And if it is what I think then we have to bring it back to Master Fu" she explained to me "well, fine, whatever you say, but I don't trust this Lila"

I followed Lila into the park, who was looking at her necklace, which looked like a Miraculous. She took out the book and when Adrien came, she quickly threw it in a trash can.

"This is your chance, when you're not looking, you can take the book and we can take a closer look at it." Loup flies to the trash can, takes it out and hands it to me. Then we both eavesdrop on the conversation between Lila and Adrien.

"Did you know that Ladyluna and I are really good friends? You could even say that we're best friends, she's saved my life so many times," I heard Lila say. I angrily transformed into Ladyluna and stood in front of her. "Adrien, don't believe a word she says, we're not friends and we never will be, I would never have a liar as my girlfriend," I confronted her, whereupon she ran out of the park...
