As Ladybug and I made our way to the park, I couldn't help but smirk at the thought of her getting her Christmas present. She'd kill me. It would be amazing.

Once we sat, I spewed my question, hoping that I wasn't prying too much. "Well, this is a long story." Ladybug sighed, eyes shifting as though recalling past events.

"I've got time." I said, smiling reassuringly. 

"Since it's so long, can you answer first?"  Ladybug asked.

I nodded, replying quickly about my family. The thought of my disappeared mother had stopped bothering me, and I was now at peace with it. If she was dead, she was gone. If she returned, I'd simply cherish her more. "O-oh. Um..." Came Ladybug's response.

"That's fine. You go!" I said, quickly dismissing the girl's concerns.

"Okay. So, last year, I met this guy. His name was Pierre-" I raised an eyebrow - "-I know, I know. And he was really nice. But he was like the king of the grade, so I didn't understand why he singled me out specifically. But he would always make time to talk to me, say hi, gave me a..." Ladybug paused, struggling with her words.

"...Christmas... present. So of course, I developed feelings for him. 'Cause which hormonal straight teen girl doesn't fall for the nice, cool guy? Anyways, he asks me out one day." Ladybug looked up to ensure I was following.

Behind her eyes was a storm, and I pushed a comical pout to try and lighten her spirits. "Don't worry, Kitty, Pierre is long gone now- okay, anyways. We go out, right, and it's fun. Dinner, movie, y'know. So then we have this "we like each other and go on dates together but we're not quite bf slash gf yet" thing going on. And then-" 

"How far did you go with this guy?" I asked, scrutinizing Ladybug. 

"I never kissed him. Oh, yeah, Kitty got dibs all over Ladybub's kissies." She must have seen my surprised expression. 

Ladybug had never kissed this Pierre? Did that mean she'd never kissed anyone before? "Wait-" I started, about to phrase my question.

"Alright, anyways. So one day, we got to the point where we needed to have that "talk". We get into it, decided we're dating. And serious, cause at this point it's been like four months. That's about how serious it gets. Anywho, he decides he wants to meet up. In the same. fucking. park." At this point, Ladybug's shoulders began to shake with fury.

"LB, it's okay. Calm down." I said, reaching out to stop one shoulder's movements. 

Ladybug looked back up at me, eyebrows knit. "Alright. Thanks. At this point, I'm attached. I can't let him go. That swing set I asked to not sit on, that was the one we used. The thing was, we were just talking. No one knew aside from our parents, and we were going to go "public" the next day. As I left, I saw Pierre stay behind. that's the other thing; he never walked me home, no matter what. But back to the story: So I'm gonna leave, when I realize that "Oh! My shoe lace is undone!". So I bend over to fix it. But I'm just so goddamn elated that people can see that I captured Pierre! And that Pierre was mine!" Ladybug said, mocking the sappy tones often used in films.

"So I sit down to just daydream when -oh! I hear voices, and Pierre's laugh. I lean over to see Pierre and Tikki."  Ladybug's eyes shifted to the bench.

I grabbed Ladybug's hand, trying to show her I was there, and that she didn't need to keep going if she didn't want to. "And there they are, Pierre holding her in his lap. He never did that with me. But then it gets worse- Pierre starts kissing Tikki. And not your average little peck. No, no. this was full-out. Tongue down her throat. She was squirming. She didn't want that. So I step a little into the open, shocked. But then I watch Pierre grope my best friend. And she clearly communicated she didn't want that. So I yell out to him, and Tikki looks up, surprised. She runs off, frightened. I walk straight up to this asshole, poke him in the chest, and he slaps me across the face." My eyes widen.
