Love As In Partners

Chapter 6

Adrien woke up thinking of last night. Marinette had confessed to him and she didn't know. He was thinking of playing around with her today at school.

He got up and went to do his daily routine. After that he saw Marinette walking to school. He wanted to offer her a ride again, but Nathalie declined his petition.

When he arrived, Nino walked over to him and Alya too. They greeted him.

"Dude the movie was awesome!"

Alya laughed, "Yeah and I bet you and Marinette had a great time too!"

Adrien scratched the back of his neck and chuckled. Marinette arrived minutes later. He turned to her and smiled sweetly.

Nino noticed. "What's up now buddy?"

"Isn't she pretty?"

Nino shocked turned to Marinette and back to Adrien.

"Are you... In love with her?!"

"I don't know... I feel like we are made for each other..."

Nino looked at Adrien's expression and smirked.

"Go get her, dude."

"I can't... Not yet..."

"Why?"

"First I need to figure out something."

"If its knowing if she likes you back then think again of the way he acts around you."

"No. Not that."

"What is it dude?"

"Can't tell. Its a secret."

Marinette turned to Adrien and waved. He waved back. Plagg popped.

"Hey what are you doing."

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you love Ladybug?"

"Yeah, that's why first need to know her identity."

"Well you need to hurry up before you go crazy and take her."

"Plagg, just hide!"

He walked up to Marinette and smiled. "How are you?"

"You're great! I mean I'm great! But not as great as you are~"

"Okay well do you mind walking to class with me?"

"N-no! Not at all!"

"Cool" he offered his hand and Marinette took it. The walked together playfully to class.

In the Agreste Mansion, Nathalie was having a bad day with a lot of work. She was stressed out.

"Mr. Agreste, when can I have a break?"

"When everything in the list is done. Now, don't bother me."

"Urgh! I can't anymore!"

Hawk Moth is awoken and sees the desperation of Nathalie.

"Hmm... Stressed of too much work? Well I guess its time for my little akuma to give her a break of her regular schedule."

The akuma flew and got in her pen.

"Hello I am Hawk Moth and you are now No Break. You will make everyone work without break and in return you will have to bring me the Miraculous of Ladybug and Chat Noir."

"Let the work begin."
