Hey guys! So I'm not totally sure where this story is going but I will try my best to make it a good story. So I'm hoping it goes along these lines:
- Marinette is saved by the young justice outsiders
- Beast Boy is currently still in his distresse...
It's been 3 months. Marinette was finally returning tomorrow to spend some time being Nettie the Singer. Jerry and Marinette pulled up outside and I was quick to meet them downstairs. "Mar-" I saw Jonathan with her and so I stopped midway. "I-I mean- Nettie!"
Marinette looked away relieved and we both shared a hug. "It's good to have you back, girl." I smiled. She nodded, "Mhm. We have a lot to catch up on." We made our way upstairs while the boy brought her bags up the stairs. The first to greet us was Kagami. "Nettie. You're back. Nice to see you again."
They hugged as Luka placed a hand on her head, "Cool of you to remember us." Marinette scoffed, "Oh poor Luka. Did you miss me even after I texted you guys like..everyday?" We all laughed as Nino scurried out from his room, lifting her up in a hug. "Dudette! You wouldn't believe the ideas I've been coming up with for you!"
When he finally put her down, Jonathan walked over. "Well, I'll call you later." Marinette smiled...but that smile was different."Mhm. Okay." After he left, I immediately turned around to see Marinette blushing and Jerry looking exhausted. "So!? What's the deal with you and Superboy!?" I exclaimed.
"O-Oh..umm-" Kagami sighed, "Did you ask, or him?" Marinette covered her face, "He did..." I grinned, "So you and the superboy have finally called it. I'm happy for you, girl!" Luka chuckled, "It's about time." After that we had breakfast and caught up. She told us about her training and her missions and the kwamis did not change at all.
They were always loud and energetic and were also spilling the juicy tea they saw around the Penthouse and the Wayne Mansion. The day was all in all relaxing and fun and now, it was night time. I had made reservations at our favourite restaurant tonight.
We all got ready and left with Jerry. Once there, our usual waitress did not disappoint. She got us our usuals and the night went on. "So, you actually went on a spy mission?" I questioned. She sighed, "Well, it didn't end like that. It was chaotic. But after that I was able to adapt my powers better and became stronger."
Nino grinned, "I heard a rumour going around about a new hero that joined but no one seems to catch a good glimpse of." He took out his phone and showed the pictures. They were all blurred and fuzzy but visible enough to show a girl in a red and black suit.
"Everyone is wondering who it is." he finished. Luka chuckled, "Well I think it's safe to say we know who it is." Kagami scoffed. Our food and drinks came and we began to eat. The night went on without a hitch and it was good to have all of us back together. I paid the bill and we left.
I felt like there was some tension between Marinette and Jerry. Did they get into a fight? When we arrived back home I asked her privately in her room. "Hey, is everything alright between you and Jer?" She frowned. "We're umm...currently not seeing eye-to-eye. He wants me to quit the outsiders after what happened on my first mission."
I softly smiled, "You know he's only worried about you girl." She pouted, "I know..but I'm a hero now and I want to help. I know it's gonna be dangerous but..not like being a famous singer doesn't come with its fair share of danger. I did get kidnapped.."
I smiled, "I know you mean well but try to make up with him. It was weird when he didn't say anything when you asked for dessert when he's usually against it." She rolled her eyes then hugged me. "Thanks Als." I smiled, then smirked. "So..you're dating Jonathan now."
Marinette immediately blushed, pulling away from the hug. "Come on, give me the deets!" She covered her face. "Alya..!"

The next day was a bit busier than the day before. We had a photoshoot for Nettie and then Luka wanted to query her about his new song. During this week, we successfully had 2 photoshoots, a published song by Luka featuring Nettie, along with an upcoming Q&A with Nettie and her fans on Friday in the next two weeks.
Her backed-up work and projects caught up with her and she collabed with many rising, young singers in their music videos. Not only that but Zatanna came by on occasion to check up on her and her powers, her loverboy Jonathan making sure to tag along. All of this kept her busy until it was finally the day of her Q&A.
I knew Jonathan was attending for support along with Jason..who was actually part of the Q&A crowd of fans. Jerry gathered his team for protection around and inside the building we rented for the day. One by one, her fans came up and asked their questions, Marinette answering the best she could.
It was time for a break where she would take pictures and selfies with her fans. I laughed upon seeing Jason taking loads of pics with her. It was lunch time and so, we went to the backroom to eat lunch. We sent Marinette to her room, allowing her some time with her boyfriend. It feels weird saying that...
After about a half an hour, it was back to the session. The Q&A finished by 4pm and so it was time to pack up. "Thanks Alya, Nino for setting this up." I smiled, "Of course. Plus your fans were wondering where you were for 3 months." Nino chuckled, turning to Jonathan. "Out of all the things that I learned today, you wearing glasses, my dude, was the first."
Jonathan chuckled, "It's to kinda conceal my identity and..I'm farsighted so..." He then paused, and turned, smiling widely at Marinette. "I forgot to tell you. Uncle Conner has been rescued and is safe." Marinette smiled as well, "Really, I'm so happy for you!" I grinned, "Maybe you two should hug each other.."
The two blushed, turning away as I laughed, Jerry and Nino grinning. We left the cleaning committee to finish clearing the area and we went home. When we arrived, Marinette received a message on her phone from Damian. "What's it say?" I asked. She smiled. "I have a birthday party to go to on Sunday."
I smiled, "Is it his?" She shook her head. She showed me the invite forwarded to her from Damian. "Oh, so it's Tim's. Well, looks like we have present shopping to do tomorrow. Hey Kagami, wanna join?" She nodded from behind the kitchen counter. I grinned, "Alrighty then!"
