Miraculous Love Bug (A Marinette/Ladybug x Reader)

~ Two: Crushed and Confused ~

(Your P.O.V)
   As the bell rand for your last class, you let out a shaky breath. You had been growing more and more nervous as the day went on. Were you really going to confess?
   "Chaton!" The familiar name snapping you out of your horrid thoughts. You turned around as Adrien ran towards you. You smiled at him, very awkwardly.
   "Ace.. I don't think I can do this.."
   "You have to! It's the perfect chance! If you put it off now you'll just keep pushing it off and pushing it off until eventually, you won't do it! Now go!" He says confidently as he pulls you into a quick hug and kisses your cheek, he then pushes you out the doors of the school and at the bottom of the steps, stood Marinette. You walked down the steps and cleared your throat, confidence boiling through your body as you smiled and tapped her on the shoulder.
   "Hey Mari!"
   "Oh! Hi (Y/n)! Ready to go?" she asked brightly.
   "Yep! Let's head out!" You said as you linked arms with her and started in the direction of your house. You turned your head back, smiling at Adrien who gave you a goofy grin and two thumbs up. You giggled as you looked back to Mari who was smiling.
   "You got any homework tonight?" she smiled.
   "Nope! You?"
   "Nada!"
   "Well that's good, we can just have fun then!"
   "Uh huh! Oh wait! When we get back to the house I have something super important to tell you! Okay?"
   "Of course! I have something to tell you as well," you smiled. Could it be possible.. maybe she liked you back? Though you didn't get your hopes up to high, that couldn't possibly be it.. right?
   "Oh! I don't wanna wait! Let's go!" She said before taking of into a run, dragging you with her as you both laughed.
   You made it to your house in a few minutes, though like Marinette's house, your parents coffee shop was located under your house. You both walk in and sigh happily at the smell of coffee, your Mom sitting at the register and smiling at you.
   "Hello (Y/n), Marinette, how was your day sweetie?"
   "It was good, Mari and I are just gonna hang in my room!"
   "Have fun!" She smiles as you walk past her. You make your way up the stairs to your living room and then up the set of stairs that lead to your bedroom. You open the latch and walk in, Mari follows and closes it. You drop your backpacks and then plop down on your fluffy carpet, sitting across from one another.
   "Your news fist!" You say with a smile.
   "Okay okay! So.. I have been doing a lot of thinking lately.. and I sorta did a reality check on myself recently and I realized that it's just a silly little dream that will never come true.. what I'm saying is.. I don't like Adrien anymore." Your heart thumped into your chest as the words left her lips. That wasn't happening.. it couldn't be what you thought! Did she like you?! Is this her confession?!
   "Oh wow Marinette, as your best friend I support your decision but I have to ask, why?"
   "I like someone else.." you couldn't believe your ears.. could it actually be possible that she likes you back?! You couldn't hold your emotions back as you started blushing.
   "W-who?"
   "I like.. I like Nathanaël, and he asked me out in s date today! Isn't that great!?" She giggled and hugged herself happily. Your heart sunk into your stomach. You wanted to throw up just a little bit. You were crushed. She got so close.. only to unknowingly smash your heart into a million little pieces.
   "T-that's great.." you struggled to hold back tears, swallowing the lump in your throat as you sniffled a little and looked up, blinking back tears, praying she wouldn't notice.
   "So what's your news?"
   "Huh?"
   "What did you have to tell me, silly!" she giggles. Oh no.
   "Don't worry about it.. it's not really that important.."
   "But wait! You can't just say you have something to tell me then back out!"
   "Mari just.. let it go, it's doesn't matter anymore!"
   "Geez.. okay.. are you okay?"
   "I'm fine.."
   "Okay what the hell is wrong?" She asked a bit angered.
   "Nothing Marinette, I'm completely fine!"
   "Stop lying to me!"
   "I'm not lying! I just decided that I'd rather not say what I was going to tell you!"
   "Why?"
   "I don't wanna ruin your mood! You seem so happy right now and if I tell you then you'll be sad!"
   "I don't care (Y/n).. anything you have to say is important to me.." she said looking down and blushing slightly. What the.. she had never blushed in front of you.. or over you. You grouped and took a deep breath and calmed down.
   "I'm sorry Marinette.. I just don't think now is a good time, I'll tell you when I think the timing is right, okay?"
   "Okay," she sighed, "I'm sorry too.. I shouldn't have gotten angry."
   "Oh it's fine!" You say as you stand and stretch. She stands up and shaking her head.
   "No it's not!" She said hugging you suddenly, you, being clumsy and shocked, tripped over your own foot. Next thing you knew you opened your eyes to Marinette hovering over you and giggling. You face ignited red. She rolled off of you and fixed her bangs before looking back to you. "Sorry about that! Huh? (Y/n)?" You really didn't wanna move as you blinked up at your ceiling and gulped. You sat up and forced a small, weak giggle.
   "It's fine Mari, anyways, what do you wanna do?" You asked trying to change the subject.
   "I dunno~! We could watch a movie, draw, discuss some random topic, anything really." She smiled.
   "A movie sounds nice, your pick!" You smile as you scoot over and get out of her way as she crawls over to the shelf. She quickly pulls out a romantic comedy and puts it in the PlayStation in your room. You both plop on the bed and watch from the edge, laughing and smiling at the funny jokes. Though.. you still couldn't escape the fact that you were crushed.. and confused. She had blushed because of you.. and that accidental awkward position didn't seem to phase her.. maybe she liked you.. but didn't want to admit it to herself, or maybe she didn't even know it yet.
