"I like Adrien," Marinette said to the floating kwami that was following her around her room, "Chat is just a friend, and he likes Ladybug anyway

"I like Adrien," Marinette said to the floating kwami that was following her around her room, "Chat is just a friend, and he likes Ladybug anyway. So even if  I did like him, which I do not, it wouldn't matter."

"But you're Ladybug," Tikki said, a cookie from Marinette's parents bakery in one hand, "So he does like you, because Ladybug and Marinette are the same person."

Ignoring Tikki's very true statement Marinette continued packing her books for school, "But I like Adrien, and him and Chat Noir aren't the same person." She was now on the brink of tearing up her room for two reasons:

1. Her feelings for Chat Noir and Adrien were getting all jumbled up in her head like they were fighting an akuma 

and 2. She could find this one /d a m n/ book.

It was Tikki to the rescue once again when the black spotted kwami flew up, the missing book in hand. Marinette let out a breath of relief, "Thank you so much Tikki, I don't know what I did without you."

"Maybe you should stop hanging out with Chat as Marinette," Tikki commented, taking her spot in Mari's purse as they left her room and began descending the house and into the bakery, "Until you've sorted out your feelings for him."

Marinette signed, "The fault in your plan there is that I don't have feelings for Chat, he's just a friend and I like Adrien." She stopped talking and waved good bye to her parents as she walked out of the bakery. Pulling out her phone she continued talking to Tikki, but acting like she was calling someone, "Like I said before, Chat likes Ladybug not Marinette."

"I've noticed that Chat has stopped flirting with Ladybug and has started flirting with you," Tikki pointed out as they got closer to the school.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," Mari lied as she walked up the school steps, waving to some other students that she knew from class. "I have to go," she said as she walked up to Alya and put her phone in her purse next to Tikki.

"Hey girl, who were you talking too?" Alya asked as the dark haired girl walked up to her. 

"Just a friend," Mari said waving it off hoping she wouldn't go into it too much.

The Ladyblogger noticed how she wanted to change the subject and was happy too, "I got a new scoop on Ladybug and Chat Noir! Apparently Chat Noir has been seen going to your house at around 7:30 at night and then leaving at around 9, sometimes later. And then Ladybug is seen some time later doing her patrolling with Chat." Ally looked at Marinette with disappointment, "Why haven't you told me you were dating Chat, that you like him and that he's been coming to your house! And does Ladybug know about how you're dating Chat? Do you know his identity? Can I meet him?"

Signing Marinette looked around hoping nobody had been listening to their conversation, "I'm not dating Chat, I don't like him; I like Adrien. He's just a friend who stops by often, I don't know if Ladybug knows. No I do not know his secret identity, and I have no idea if you can meet him." She took a deep breath after the hella long mini speech, "Remember, I like Adrien. Not Chat Noir, he's just a friend. Have you told anybody about this or but it on the Ladyblog?" 

"I haven't and you know you can like multiple guys at once" Alya told her, "It won't make you a slut, when you start dating multiple guys /t h a t s/ when you become a slut."

Marinette shook her head, why does everybody think she likes Chat Noir? She doesn't! She likes Adrien! "Alya, I'm going to tell you this now, I don't like Chat Noir, I only like Adrien."


A/N: I mentioned Chat (Noir) 16 times in this 548 word one shot. Well it got the point through. Day 2 done and in the bag, see you all later for Day 3!
