POV: Adrien"Dude, it's been a week! We all know who each other is, so why don't you just tell her??" Nino asked as we walked down the empty school hall.
"Because I want it to be special..I'm going to tell her tomorrow."
"That's what you said three days ago..Either you tell her tomorrow, or Alya does. I'm the only reason why she hasn't told Marinette about you being Chat.." Nino sighed and flicked my arm."Alright, I'm for real. I'm going to tell her tomorrow. I've..just been busy. I had to go see my father four days ago in jail, I inherited my fathers house and some money two days ago, and now I have to go back to school. What a fun week I've had." I chuckle and put my things in my locker.
For the first time in—......for the first time, I've been able to..do what I want? No piano rehearsals, no photoshoots. Just me....I'm my house...by my self....if all things that could've changed, I'm still alone..
We got into the classroom and sat down. Alya came in shortly after.
"Marinette told me that she'd be coming here early today. But she still hasn't shown up.." Alya sat down in her seat, and Marinette was just walking in. She had a little container and she smiled and walked up to us."Hey!" She grinned, opening the box, "I brought you guys breakfast."
"Oh pleassseee tell meee....." Alya excitedly leaned towards Marinette, and Marinette pulled out three macarons.
"Haha, yup!"
Alya took the macarons and took a bite.
"Hmnnnn!!!.... So good.." Alya grinned.We laughed, and she gave Nino a blueberry muffin.
"Yeahhhh, my fav!" He chuckled.
Lastly, she gave me three croissants; all with chocolate drizzle.
"Ahhhh yesssss! Thanks Mari!" I felt my mouth watering. 'They're even still warm...these are sooo good!'Everyone said a 'thank you' and she sat down in her seat. She pulled out and started munching on an eclair.
When we were done eating and cleaning up our desks, the day started.
I ended up thinking about how I'd tell Marinette that 'I'm Chat Noir' for most of the day. Before long, school was over."Bye Adrien. And, good luck." Nino gave me a thumbs up.
"Thanks Nino. See you on Monday." I chuckled and walked over to my limo. I kept Gorilla as my driver. I've known him forever, and wanted to keep him around for a bit longer. He was in a better mood now, especially after what happened.We got back to my house, and I let Gorilla leave for the night; telling him that he had the weekend off. He seemed very happy about the idea.
I spent the rest of the night thinking about what to do tomorrow, and stayed up late preparing."Kid, go to beddddd...you're gonna be too tired in the morning." Plagg groaned from my pillow.
"Fine..." I yawned, and soon went to bed.I woke up in the morning, hearing the sound of the doorbell that I had turned on. I waddled down to the front door and realized that it was morning.
'Huh..I wonder who this is..'I answered the door and saw Marinette pacing in front of the door. She was mumbling things to herself, so I cleared my throat to get her attention.
"Gah!" She jumped."Good morning Marinette," I chuckled, "what can I help you with?" I asked.
She walked in past me and stood in the center of the room. I shut the door and walked in with her. She then turned to me and put her arms in the air.
"A-Are you Chat Noir???" She blurted.I looked at her with shock. 'Did Alya tell her?! Crap..well, there goes my plan..'
"I...er...Uh...w-who told you that?" I asked.
Her face grew paler and she paced again.
"N-no one told me! I...I just...hm...I just, thought of you...then thought of Chat...then remembered how very similar your voices are."She walked up to me and put her hands on my shoulders, moving her face towards mine. She looked into my eyes.
"And your eyes are both emeralds, and your hair is both gold........ugh! I dunno....the thought has been driving me crazy all night!" She moved away from me and ran her hand through her hair.
She's to the point of wanting to know who I was so bad, that she actually put our physical appearances together.....'huh....I wonder how I wasn't able to do that...'I extended my arms out to stop her from pacing, and I made her look up at me.
"What would you think if it was me?" I asked.
Her face went red and she looked down.
"Er...don't know....I mean...I'd be happy.?..."She shook her head. "N-never mind...sorry for waking you up..."
she sighed and walked towards the door. '...I guess..she doesn't need a big surprise to find out...'
I walked up to her and grabbed her hand.
"You do realize that I didn't answer you, right?" I said softly.
She turned and looked at me, her eyebrows scrunched, "w-what?"I chuckled and held up my hand, showing her my ring, "I was planning on telling you this-afternoon...I was going to bring you somewhere..I didn't quite decide where, but I was going to tell you..."
She went to speak, but nothing came out. She pulled me into a hug, and I rested my head on her's.
"So...does this mean that happy?" I asked.
She pulled away, grinning with tears in her eyes. She nodded and whipped away the tears.
"Yes..."
