Miraculous One Shots

Nothing Will Exterminate Our Love

(Adrien's POV)

My eyes open when I feel something tickle my nose. I have to cross my eyes to focus on the white bug. It's a moth. I shoo it off my face and sit up. I swing my legs over the edge of my bed and stretch my arms out and yawn. I rub my eyes and get up. I see the moth flying in front of me so I smack my hands together to kill it. "Bye bye little butterfly."

I walk over to my closet and open up the door. A couple more moths fly out. I think of hawk moth. Is this his work? It couldn't be. He doesn't know my true identity. I shrug it off and kill them.

I get dressed and head down the stairs to the dining room where breakfast is waiting. I smell some delicious pancakes. I sit down and cut them up into tiny pieces and pour some maple syrup on it. I stab my fork into one of them and lift it to my mouth. Just as I'm about to eat it, a white moth lands on it.

"Another moth?" Natalie walks into the dining room. "There where three in the bathroom, four in the den and now one here?" She says disgusted.

"There where a few in my room too" I tell her as I flick the moth off my pancake and then eat it. (Not the moth)

Natalie gives me a disgusted look. "I'll get someone to call an exterminator as soon as possible." She walks out of the room.

By the time I finish my pancakes the exterminator is just pulling up to our house. Funny how the more rich and powerful you are the quicker people will do stuff for you. I go to the front door where Natalie and Gorilla are already waiting for the exterminator. The doorbell rings and Natalie get it.

"Hello, I'm Bob Duncan from Bob's Bugs Be-gone, and I'm here about a moth infestation?"

"Yes, right this way." Natalie escorts him to another room.

I look over at Gorilla who seems shooken, and that's odd because he never has any emotion, only that stone cold expression he always wears on his face. He dashed into the kitchen moments later and I decide to just go follow Natalie and Bob.

"Ahh yes, there is a moths nest (do they even have nests?) right here." Bob informs us."

"How soon until you can get rid of them? We cannot afford them eating any of Mr. Agreste's designs." Natalie says.

"I can start right now." Bob replies.

"Perfect. I just need to-" Natalie starts but then gets cut off by Gorilla bursting into the room.

"I-I made you some coffee. I hope you like it" Gorilla shoves a cup of coffee at Bob. He takes it awkwardly.

"That is not in your job description." Natalie scolds him.

"I just wanted to be helpful." He gets a little sad.

This is the most I've heard him speak in, well, since I met him. I've never actually heard him speak before. His voice is higher than you would have imagined.

"Th-thanks. I bet it tastes great-"he takes a sip and barely keeps himself from spitting it out. A few drops did come out though. He forces it down and says "it's-it's delicious." He forces a smile.

Gorilla smiles, pleased, bows and leaves the room.

"What's up with the bow?" I say to myself.

"So, I'll get started right now I suppose."

After an hour or so, Bob finished his work. "Bye bye little butterflies." He said.

"I already used that." I mumbled to myself

"Thank you so much Mr. Duncan." Natalie shook his hand. "Mr. Agreste will be so pleased."

"Just doing my job ma'am" Bob said then went outside and then started to pack up things into his van. I wanted to ask him a few questions so I started heading towards him, but then I saw Gorilla heading his way so I his behind a bush.

"Mr. Duncan?" Gorilla asked. "Um. I-I got you these.".

"Orange lilies? My favourite! How did you know?" Bob sounded so excited.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go on a date with me sometime?" Gorilla asked shyly."

"I would love to!" Bob agreed. "I was going to ask you but I couldn't tell if you liked me or not. Also I chickened out."

"What? You don't seem like the type of guy to chicken out! Just look at those muscles!" Gorilla said. "How does Saturday at 7:00 sound to you?"

"It sounds wonderful."Bob laughed. "Well it was a pleasure meeting you, I'm excited for Saturday."

"Likewise. Well, goodbye for now Bob." He said and then skipped past me into the house.
