{Prologue}
This story takes place before Season 2. I am a Miraculous fangirl, so I can tell you, personally, that this story will break your heart. Stick with this story. It will get more interesting. Promise!
Also none of the characters are mine, obviously, it belongs to the show. And unless stated, the art isn't mine either. The plot line is mine. The cover art isn't mine. If anyone knows who it belongs to let me know.
I will release a new chapter each week.
Also don't question the fact that there is school in July. It's the only way.

Also it's a minor detail, but has an importance to the story; Independence Day for France is July 14th.

July 1st [Mid-Afternoon]
"Class! Listen up! I have an important announcement to make!"
The room silenced. Miss Bustier cleared her throat and continued.
"Thanks to Mayor Bourgeois' generous donation, we will be having a 14th of July Masquerade Ball! All kids in the district are welcome to come. It's a couples or solo ball. The Ball will be on Friday the 14th, Independence Day, so school ends the day after.
Bllriiiinnnnggg
" oh, please remember to read page 394* for homework , bye." Miss Bustier finished.
Marinette quickly gathered her stuff. "First time in a while that class wasn't cut short by an Akuma attack, right Alya?"
Alya looked over at her best friend, frowning. "Sadly" Alya said "How will I film Ladybug and Chat Noir for my blog if there's no Akuma's for them to fight? Well, at least school's done in two weeks and we'll have a ball to go to! I know who I'm going with, do you?"
Marinette smiled shyly "Well-"
"Ha!" Chloé interrupted. Her presence was thick with evil and as she continued to talk the entire class listened in. "The only date you can get is a trash can! It's the only thing that can deal with your ugly face!"
Alya's ear blew steam, Nino and Adrien's fists clenched, but they held back, knowing violence won't solve their problem.
"Go away Chloé." Marinette said strongly. She has been dealing with Chloé for years, and thanks to Alya, and her secret identity, she has finally started to stand up for herself.
" Oh please! The chances of you getting a date are just as likely as the chances of the date being, beiinggggg.... beeiinng... Chat Noir! Impossible!" Chloe said. She and Sabrina burst into laughter at the "joke". "As if she could get anyone as awesome as Chat Noir!" Sabrina laughed.
"You are pathetic!!!" Chloé spat.
"Seriously!?" said a voice from behind her. The class got silence as Chloe looked behind herself to find....Adrien.
"Adrikins?!" Chloé whined! "Back me up, you're my boyfriend. We're going the the Ball together!!"
" WE are NOT dating and I'm NOT going to the Ball with you. Marinette is amazing! And-and I bet if she asked Chat Noir go with her, he'd say yes!"
"Really?!" Marinette and Chloé said at the same time.
Chloé's envious eyes suddenly glowed with evil and as she realized what she can do. She walked toward Adrien until he backed into a table.
"Fine." She said, confidently. "I'll bet you that if Marinette doesn't go to the Ball with Chat Noir then you have to go with me!"
"You're on!" Adrien said quickly. Maybe too quickly.

Fanfiction"...it's you." Chat Noir said, changing back. Adrien was star-struck in awe at what he just witnessed. "It has been YOU all along. Marinette!... you're My Lady." He started to chuckle, but then saw the look on his Lady's face. "Marinette?" Marinett...
