A Miraculous Tail

Chapter 9

Adrien walked into his bedroom and flopped onto his bed face first.
"Urrrrrrrrrrrrgh!" He moaned into his pillow.
He flipped over and stared at his ceiling. What was he going to do?
"Plagg?" He called.
The Kwami flew out of the bag, still miffed at Adrien about the locker room.
"What kid?" He asked, his antenna twitching.
"Do you think she knows?" Adrien asked, fear growing in his heart.
"Nah kid, she's clueless. Now gimme cheese." Platt said, drained from the Akuma attack.
"Marinette's smarter than you think Plagg, if anyone can figure out my secret identity, it's her." Adrien said, pulling out the box of cheese from his dresser drawer.
Plagg licked his lips and his eyes widened. Adrien opened the box and placed it on his bed. The Kwami flew into the box and happy munching sounds could be heard.
"Plagg, I need your help! What am I gonna do?" Adrienasked, pacing in his room.
Plagg peeked out of the box, cheese on his nose.
"Do you think she could keep the secret kid?" He asked, munching once more.
"If there's one person I trust, it's Marinette." Adrien said, confident.
"Then tell her." Plagg said.
Adriens eyes grew wide.
"Plagg, I can't have her getting hurt, not ever." He said, pacing faster.
Plagg looked at Adrien in disdain.
"Sheesh kid, you're gonna wear holes in the carpet if you keep that up." He said, watching his silly human.
Adrien ran his hands through his hair, pulling at it.
"I can't help it Plagg, I'm so terrified of her getting hurt by Hawkmoth." He said, in the verge of tears.
"Well whatever, tell her, don't tell her, I don't knew what to tell you." Plagg said, looking at the empty box.
Adrien stopped his frantic pacing and sat down on the bed.
"No, I can't keep this from her, that's not fair to her. I'll tell her." He said, looking out the window at the Paris sunset.
"Just not yet." He said, getting into bed.

Back at the bakery, Marinette was doing some pacing of her own.
"This is not happening, this is not happening, THIS IS NOT HAPPENING!" Marinette said, yelling the last words.
Her red retriever Tikki, cocked her head towards Marinette.
"Oh don't look at me like that Tikki, I'm freaking out here!" Marinette said, quickening her pacing.
Tikki just laid her head down on the bed.
"I cannot believe I called Adrien Chat. What was I thinking?!" She said, wringing her hands.
"There is absolutely no way that both of the guys I like are the same person. I'm never that lucky." She said.
She looked at over at her dog who was staring at a stray bug that was flying around.
"Come on Tikki! Give me something. A bark? A howl? Something?!" Marinette asked, waving her hands frantically.
She flopped down onto her bed.
"I am talking... To a dog." She exclaimed.
Tikki just looked at her and yawned.
"Ok, yup. I need to go to sleep." Marinette said, reaching for her pajamas.
She picked up a black shirt and some green pants. She went to the mirror to brush her hair... And she was wearing her Chat Noir pun shirt!
Marinette screamed in frustration and ran into bed and shut off the light, ready for the day to be over.

(Sorry, kind of a short chapter. Didn't have much to go off of lol)
