Miraculous: a New Year, a New Us

Day Eight: Melt

It was cold outside; snow poured down from the cloudy sky, of course causing for everyone to be inside.

Just like everyone else, the two lovebirds sat in Marinette Dupain-Cheng's bedroom. Her head leaned against his shoulder, a blanket was wrapped around their shoulders as they sipped at their hot chocolate she had made.

"Want to watch a movie?" Adrien asked.

"Yeah, sure."

"What do you want to watch?"

She shrugged. "I chose last week, you choose."

He thought for a minute, looking at Plagg and Tikki who sat by her computer eating cheese and cookies. "I have an idea, but I don't know if you'd be up for it. It's an anime movie."

"Hey, sounds interesting! What's it called?" she asked with a smile.

"A Silent Voice."

"Interesting," Marinette remarked.

"It is very interesting." Adrien grinned, pulling it up on her computer and starting it.

Marinette couldn't take her eyes from the screen. Adrien watched slightly, but he knew the movie by heart. He mainly just watched her reactions.

At first, she seemed confused. Then sad, and happy, then hopeful, and sad again. At the end, she was bawling, unable to control herself.

"Woah, Marinette! Are you okay?!"

She sniffed. "I'm okay. That movie just melted my heart a bit."

"So you liked it?"

"Loved it."
