[Unedited]
Almost out of time, Ladybug swings from building to building with her red and black-spotted yo-yo. With a flip, she lands on the floor gracefully.
"Let's go, Tikki, we are going to be late for Alya's birthday party!"
She enters the shop, greeting her parents, then goes upstairs to change. She wears her latest design: a pink and black gradient sundress. She puts her hair up how it usually is, two small pigtails.
"Alright, I'm ready!" she exclaims as her phone buzzes in her small shoulder bag. A text from Alya:Hey! Where are you? The party has already started!
Another text from Alya shows a blonde, green eyed boy.
Adrien is already here! Do you want to keep him waiting?
"Kyaah!!!" Marinette texts back that she'll be there in a flash, then rushes down to Alya's house, after saving the picture. When she got to the front door, she straightened herself and knocked, not knowing if they could hear since the music was booming loud. After 5 seconds, the door slams open as Alya pulls Marinette in.
"Where were you? The queen of drama, over there, is already hovering over Adrien like a hawk! That little--" a scream of terror intterupted Alya. The music stopped as one of the guests exclaims "Help! It's Juleka! She's acting strange!"
Marinette runs over to see what happened before deciding to transform into LadyBug.
It was another one of HawkMoths akumas, Monotoner.
Marinette quickly, and quietly, exits the house to transform into Ladybug.
She made sure everyone was okay before going after the Monotoner. She looked around and saw that Adrien was missing.
'Oh no...What if he's hurt?!'
She looks around again.
"Looking for something, my lady?" Chat Noir drops down from the ceiling in front of Ladybug.
"Ah! Um.. No.." She looks around one more time, secretly, "Let's go cure the akuma already." She passes Chat Noir and chases after the monster as the party guest chant her name.
"Ladybug! Ladybug!"
"Wo~w, they never really chant my name, huh?" Chat Noir chuckles and follows LadyBug from behind. "You really are loved." He runs beside her. She laughs, "Instead of using this time to talk, get that pendant from Juleka so we can be done with this already."
Monotoner growls in the distance, changing everything beautiful she sees into total dullness.
***
As time passes, LadyBug and Chat Noir defeat Hawkmoth, as the window closes once again.
"Mission Accomplished!" The two fist bumps as LadyBug begins to swing away.
"Wait! My lady... Marinette!"
LadyBug freezes in her steps and turns back to look at Chat Noir. Her yo-yo winds up as she puts is away.
"Exc...excuse me?"
"Earlier... I ran after you," he walked towards LadyBug as he spoke. "I saw you release transformation." He scratched the back of his head and laughs softly, "I was going to call you out, but I just got too surprised and you looked like you were in a hurry. So, I went to Alya's party and decided to wait for you."
LadyBug blinked in confusion.
"Huh? You were at Alya's party?"
Chat Noir laughed, then his ring began to beep. Only one paw left.
"Ah! I gotta go! Until we meet again, My lady." He bows and runs off into the darkness."He... He knows me? And Alya... DOES THAT MEAN HE GOES TO OUR SCHOOL?!?"
She starts to freak out, then Tikki breaks her train of thought. "Marinette! You're running out of time! If you don't hurry, Chat Noir is not the only one who will know of your true self."
"Ah! You're right! Thanks Tikki!"
Ladybug runs off to an isolated area.
"Transformation Release!" She runs back to Alya's party, which was almost done due to the time spent on capturing the akuma, and makes up an excuse of how she wasn't there during the attack. Everything went back to normal. Alya sighs and points over to the other side of the room.
"There she goes again..." She pretends that she was recording Chloe and Adrien, "This just in! Chloe about to devour your precious Adrien!" She points the hand camera at Marinette "What will you do?" She laughs and puts down her hands when she was done teasing Marinette.
"You should go talk to him." Tikki pops her head out of Marinette's purse; she shushes Tikki and closes her purse again in a hurry.
"Did you hear that?" Alya asked looking around the room.
"Ahahaha! You must b-be hearing things!" She looks over at Adrien then back at Alya, "I'll go get you a drink!"
She hurried off to the food table and began to pour some drinks, she sighs.
"I wish I could talk to him easily..."
"To who easily?" A guys voice comes from behind Marinette, causing her to jump from shock.
"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." She turned around after setting the drinks down.
"A-A-A-A-ADRIEN! N-No need to say s-sorry! Ahahahahahhahaha!" She laughs awkwardly and scratches the back of her head while smiling from ear-to-ear, looking up at Adrien. He smiles and leans over her, placing his hand on the food table with a mischevious smile planted on his face.
"So, I heard from a little bird you were friends with LadyBug?"
"A-ah." Her face was blushing red as her leaned in closer, she averts her eyes, "y- yea.. But we aren't that close.." He hums and leans in a bit closer, causing her to shrink.
"Hmmm~... How about Chat Noir? You friends with him too?"
"Huh? Chat Noir?" She thinks about it for a second. "W-well, you're cooler than him ahaha! Well, gotta go!" She puts up a thumbs up, grabs her drinks, and slips away from his stare, feeling hotter than usual.
Marinette walks back to Alya with an awkward smile as she walks through the crowd, not being able to get Adrien out of her head.
"You took forever!" Marinette hands Alya her drink and she starts talking about how there was something at the table that she couldn't escape from. They both fangirled, then continued to enjoy the party.
***
Marinette spent her day off wondering who Chat Noir was truly, although it has been a while since Hawkmoth has made an appearance.
"You should go out! Get some fresh air!" Tikki flies around the room trying to find a reason for Marinette to go out.
"Ahhh... Maybe you're right, Tikki, I should go out." She stands up from her desk and stretches. She looks down at her computer wallpaper and smiles.
"I hope I bump into him today!" She giggles and jumps around her room, getting ready to go out. Tikki stares at the monitor.
"Maybe Alya is right, what if Adrien is Chat Noir?"
The rustling noise of clothes turned into silence. Marinette thinks twice about her answer then sighs.
"I don't want to jump to any conclusions anymore. Chat Noir could be anyone in my school."
She grabs her purse as Tikki slides in, "Let's go!" She greets farewell to her parents then walked to the park to get some fresh air. "Ahh~ you chose a nice day to go out! No evil and no bad weather!" Marinette spins around, taking in all of the fresh air she can. Bump
Marinette falls to the floor after crashing into something.
"I'm really so--"
"OW! DID YOU REALLY JUST BUMP INTO ME?! YOU FOOLISH FOOL!"
Marinette groaned.
"SABRINA HELP ME UP." obeying her words, Sabrina pulls Chloe back on her feet. Marinette stands up herself and dusts her pants.
"What are you doing in the park, Chloe?"
"Huh? None of your business, hmph!" She turns away and walks past Marinette, slightly brushing her shoulders. She sighs, "There goes another 2 minutes of my life, wasted."
"It's okay, you still have the rest if the day to feel comfortable!" Tikki's words helped calm Marinette a bit more. Marinette patted Tikki's head and thanked her.
They heard Chloe scream in the distance, their eyes quickly turned towards the scene.
Another one of Hawkmoths akumas has possessed another pedestrian. This one looked like a photographer.
"Huh? Were they doing a photoshoot in the park again? Who?"
Marinette looks around and sees no one. She shrugs and goes behind a tree to transform.
It appeared that what ever the photographer took a picture of, got stuck in the film. She had to make sure that she was out of sight. A muffled scream for help was heard at her feet. A picture of Chloe laid there as she was banging on the picture film asking to get out. Lady sighs and picks up the picture.
"It's always you causing trouble, huh?! You're not making my job any easier!" She sighs and places the picture on one if the nearby picnic tables.
"Me-ow! I would have been hurt if you said that to me." Chat Noir comes down from one of the trees. Ladybug then gestures him to get back into hiding.
"The camera has the alums," she whispers "although, we can't have him take pictures of us or else we'll be stuck like that idiot." She points at the picture of Chloe.
"Aw, we would look so good pictured together though." He smiles mischeviously. Ladybug face palms and plans out how they will defeat the photographer. They used various items to hide behind before the photographer took the pictures. After dozens of pictures were taken, and ladybug used her lucky charm, the photographer ran out of film. Ladybug used her yo-yo to trip the photographer that caused him to throw his camera up in the air. Chat Noir caught the camera and passed it to Ladybug.
"For you, My lady."
Ladybug smashes the lens as the akuma flies out. Ladybug cleanses the butterfly and everything goes back to normal. Ladybugs earrings began to make noises again, she bids farewell to Chat Noir.
"Wait!" He calls out, "I want to talk to you more." His ring makes noise as well.
LadyBug turns back around and faces Chat Noir, "You need to go too, don't want me finding out your true identity, now?" She smiles and runs away.
