Adrien was still in shock. Not even Nino knew he was Cat Noir, so how did the american exchange student find out? More than that though, how would she help him find his Lady's identity? "Yo! Earth to Cat boy, ya there?", her voice jarred him from his thoughts. He wondered if it was such a good idea to trust her, but he had to know the name of his one true love. "So, how do you plan on figuring this out? I've been trying for months and found nothing. Do you really think you'll find more in an afternoon?" he asked suspiciously.
She rolled her eyes at him and muttered something about 'dense cinnamon rolls'. What has this girl been sniffing? She looked him in the eye and explained, "Look, thanks to that textbook she dropped we know she's a sophomore...10th grader, at your school, we know she's bluenettte, which can't be all common, she hasn't been akumatized, we know she must be tardy a lot, we can guess how she does in school. All we have to do is hack into the school database and find out who matches that description. Ok?".
He stared at her for a moment, knowing this was a bad idea, and that he would do it anyway. He was an idiot, but everyone's an idiot for love. He nodded. She began. As he watched the screen, she was in and searching in under a minute. Adrien thought his heart might break out of his chest and run away. Closing his eyes, he forced himself to calm down some.
When he opened his eyes again he saw..."That's impossible. There must be some kind of mistake. It can't be her, I'd know if it were her!". Shaking her head, the exchange student opened another tab and with a picture of his Lady. Using some sort of app or something, she digitally removed the mask and replaced her super suit with jeans and a T-shirt. Dizzy, he sat down. "I can't believe it...", his voice barley above a whisper, "Marinette is Ladybug."
Suddenly, the american girl's voice raised, "FINALLY! You've gone from an unenlightened imbecilic peon to an enlightened imbecilic peon! You have NO IDEA how much or how long I've wanted to just slam this revelation into one of your insanely dense denying faces! Au revoir ! Let me know when you're married with Emma, Louis and Hugo! And a cat and hamster!".
Adrien wasn't sure which was crazier, what she just said, or the fact that she shouted it all in one breath, but before he could even say 'what?', she just disappeared. What? Just? Happened? He decided to focus on the few things he did know. 1, he was an idiot, 2, he really needed to talk to Marinette, his Lady, 3, when he was no longer having a heart attack, he really had to figure out what was up with the american. Was she an akuma? He picked up his phone and dialed Marinette.
