NOTE: It got cut off! DX

Adrien frowns a bit,"you don't think she could be?.." You hesitate,"it's not that.." Adrien furrows his eyebrows,"then what is it?" You frown noticing that he's upset and you decide It's best to give it up,"nevermind.." "No, now I want to know, what do you think? What do you feel? Spill it."

You get a bit off guard by him asking that, what do you feel? You look at him and try to smile innocently,"I think that there can be more girls out there for you than just this one, and that I feel.. I feel that opening your eyes and heart to it you would realize it as well."

Adrien stares at you as if he's trying to put two and two together, and then sighs understanding,"it's just, I want someone to love me for me, not first love at first sight, like most girls are feeling.." You hesitate, but lay a hand on his shoulder,"if it makes you feel any better, I didn't know who you were until I met you in person.. today.." Adrien smiles,"it does make me feel better, we became friends in less than a day." You laugh a bit but then smile,"yeah, that's a record," you say before processing that he had called you as one of his friends.

Adrien takes his phone out and checks the time and then puts it back away,"it's way too late, you should be heading home, I can walk you if you want," he says as he leans on the bench, awaiting an answer. You look at him as a blush starts to form on your cheeks from the way he looked at that moment, obviously meant and looked to be a model,"um, yeah walk, good bodea, I mean good idea!" you say quickly, hoping he didn't notice the mistake. Good news, he didn't.

"Alright, let's go!" Adrien smiles as he starts to walk and is a bit ahead of you, but soon enough you start to finally walk and end up next to him.

Back at the house, Adrien sticks his hand out to you to shake yours. You look down at his hand and then up to him, smiling,"thanks for showing me around.." you say as you slowly take your hand out to shake his. Adrien smiles and closes his eyes as he nods,"don't mention i-oof," he says feeling an amount of weight suddenly engulf him, which causes him to open his eyes and see that its just you hugging him.

Adrien is a bit taken back, but then laughs a bit heartedly as he hugs you back,"well I wish I could stay a bit longer, but my dad will be furious if I do.. then again he already is.." he says as he breaks the hug, but shakes your hand noticing it was still out for him to take, and then left as he waved goodbye with something bothering him in his mind.

Adrien wasn't surprised at the fact that his father grounded him, he expected it. He was surprised, though, at the fact that all what you said was still haunting him. "(y/n).. you didn't mean all those things you said.. did you?.." he said as he walked back and forth across his room's floor, with a hand on his chin as he pondered his questions.

Adrien looks down at his chest and then pulls his shirt out a bit,"what do you think plagg?" Plagg looks up at him with confusion,"I don't know about you adrien, but I think the most important thing you should be asking yourself is," he says as he flies out of Adrien's pocket,"why are you worrying so much?.."

Adrien looks at plagg with wide eyes, but then looks down sighing,"I... I don't know..." Plagg rolls his eyes,"that's not good enough, if you can't answer my own question, what makes you think you can answer your own?.."

Adrien stays quiet.

Plagg frowns a bit, but then smiles,"you know what can make you feel better??? Food! Food is what makes every problem go away, especially the problem with hunger." Adrien looks up at plagg, but then walks over to his bed, and lets himself fall on his back on it with his eyes closed,"but she was right plagg.." he says as he sits up,"I didn't save her.. I don't focus.. if only.." he says as he looks to his computer's side of the room, looking at the posters he has of ladybug.

Plagg frowns a bit and looks to where adrien is looking,"if only?.." he asks, trying to know what he was going to say. Adrien sighs a bit,"if only I wasn't in love with ladybug.. then there wouldn't be this mess.." Adrien looks to Plagg and stands up as he walks over to him,"I'm supposed to save the world plagg.. I'm a superhero, and that's what superheroes do.. but love has been getting in the way.." he says but then realizes something, causing his eyes to widen a bit,"and maybe that's why Ladybug doesn't probably love me.. I don't take things seriously most of the time, all I do is flirt with her more than I try to save people.." Adrien says as he feels an ache in his heart.

Plagg looks at Adrien shocked and dashes directly in front of his face,"don't say that Adrien! You have saved many people without getting distracted by your crush, don't put too much pressure on yourself!" Adrien looks up at him and crosses his arms in front of his chest,"but.. I didn't save her.." Plagg smiles a bit,"but she's alright now.. isn't that what matters?.." Adrien thinks for a moment,"I guess so.." A knock is suddenly heard at the door,"Adrien! why are the lights on?! You should be in bed!" Adrien's eyes widen and he quickly rushes to the door,"I'm sorry nathalie, I'll go to bed now, but please don't tell my father.." Adrien whispers through the door, but whispers loud enough for her to hear. Nathalie sighs from the other side of the door,"alright," she says walking away,"even if it isn't the first time you asked me to not tell him something.."

Adrien sighed in relief, but looked to his bed for a moment. After changing into his sleepwear and turning off the lights, he walked over to the bed and layed down. Plagg watches him do so, and then yawns a little,"I think I'll go take some shut eye as well.." he says before flying over to Adrien's day wear and into the shirt's pocket.

Adrien still wasn't asleep. He couldn't take in Plagg's consideration and reasoning, he was sort of in a curse, he couldn't escape the thoughts. He clutched his pillow and shut his eyes tightly.

Meanwhile~

"Confusion, doubts, and a pinch of care.. all nice ingredients for a new victim..." hawkmoth says as he akumatizes a pure white butterfly into a dark one. He lets it fly away as he smirks,"fly away my little akuma, and give this torn heart a new one to bare!" The akuma flew out the window.

It flew throughout the city of paris until reaching Adrien's location. The akuma flew over to him, over his blankets, and lastly into his ring.

Adrien sat up quickly with shock in his eyes and tears streaming down his cheeks. "Master savior, I can grant you what you want, heroism, focus, and above all, what you care about, all you have to do is give me ladybug and cat noir's miraculouses in return."

Adrien was about to answer with what any other normal person would say when communicating with le papillon, but stopped himself from doing so as he came to a realization,"hawkmoth???"

Hawkmoth chuckled a bit,"yes, who else could it be?.. your the first person to say something to me other than approval to what I offer.." A thought suddenly crosses Adrien's mind,"what if I say no?.. what makes you think I'll give you their miraculouses? If you haven't noticed you have lost way too many times.." he says, but of course he couldn't mention the fact that it would be pretty easy to give hawkmoth cat noir's miraculous, he is him after all.

Hawkmoth shrugs,"you tell me, do you want the offer.. or not.." he says a bit impatiently,"or else I'll have to take matters into my own hands.."

Adrien's eyes widen,"what makes you think forcing me is okay?!" He hears rustling coming from his clothes and panics a bit, unsure of what would happen if Plagg were to find out what was happening.

Hawkmoth thinks for a moment,"then what's the best option?.." Adrien glares and clutches his hands, but the idea was starting to get through to him,"I doubt it'll make a difference.."

"HELP!!!" someone yelled. Adrien's eyes widen as he heard the yell. "Awww, I guess you don't like it when someone's in trouble and you know you can save them.. but for some reason can't.. either if its because it's difficult or your busy or.. not a superhero.."

The words stung and echoed in his head, he knows he's a superhero, he knows he can save people, but he can't help but know that what hawkmoth is saying is true. Adrien takes a deap breath and tries to relax.

"So what do you say?.."
