Adrien POV

I couldn't help, but silently fume at the longing expression the guy gave while Marinette went up the stairs, then he went down the sidewalk heading in the direction he came from.

I sighed and crossed the street over to the steps Marinette was most likely in her apartment by now. Would it be sudden for me to just drop by? Maybe I should wait longer....

"Oh for the love of.....JUST GO TALK TO HER!!" Plagg shouted.

"I....I don't know if I can...."

"Adrien we already established that you fucked up and that you need to make a move. Do you really want to wait for another guy to swoop Marinette off her feet? This is your chance! Go knock on the door and do it fast cause IM FREEZING IN HERE!!!"

I looked down in my pocket and noticed that Plagg was shivering from the wetness from the rain. "Okay okay buddy I'll hurry it up."

I head up the stairs and step in front of Mari's door. I put my hand up to knock, but I still hesitate to do so.

So many doubts are running through my mind once again, trying to get me to cease my actions.

What if she still mad?

What if she doesn't want to listen to me?

What if she hates me to the point that she doesn't want to see my face and files a restraining order?

Okay that last one might be strecthing it but still....

I mean she never once answered my calls or called me back wouldn't that mean she didn't want to see me?

Just when that thought occured my phone started to buzz. I reached into my pocket and saw Marinette's name.

I nearly dropped my phone.

Luckily I caught it in time and managed to answer.

"H..Hello?"

"Hey Adrien, it's.....um....it's Marinette."

"M..Marinette! H..Hi how are you?" Smooth Adrien.....real smooth...

"I'm....fine." She almost sounded uncomfortable talking on the phone with me, but continued. "Hey I want to apologise for...not answering your calls, but is there anyway we could.....meet up so we could...talk?"

I'm a bit surprised by this sudden request, especially when she just spent the afternoon with another guy, but who am I to say 'no?' "Y...yes! Yes absolutely yes. I'll come over to your place."

"How long will it take you?"

I looked over at the door. "Actually....."

I reached up and finally gave a knock. I heard a shuffle over the phone and a few seconds later the door opened to reveal Marinette who was clearly surprised to see me.

".....not very long."

"O..oh!" She said wide eyes phone still to her ear. "Um...Hi?"

"Hi.." I hung up the phone and she did the same.
