Miraculous Ladybug: Princess Marinette (on hiatus for now!)

Ch. 12 Sneaking Out Pt. 2

"So..." Marinette said awkwardly, standing beside Adrien as Alya and Nino danced to the music playing in the club.

"Should we go dance?" Asked Adrien, looking down at the blue haired beauty.

"What?" She questioned, barely able to hear him over the loud noise of the club.

"Do you want to dance?" He questioned a bit louder and Marinette's face turned a gentle pink and she nodded.

"S-sure!" Marinette nodded, a bit too happily but Adrien simply chuckled taking her hand in his and leading her out to the center of the dance floor, over by Alya and Nino.

Marinette looked awkwardly off to the side, her pale white cheeks now being dusted with a pretty pink color. She wasn't much of a dancer, that much she was sure of and she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of him.

Adrien smiled softly, putting an arm on her waist and bringing her other arm up a bit. "Here, maybe this'll be a little easier." He said. "Just follow my lead."

Marinette's face immediately got redder, rivaling Ladybug's suit and she nodded.

They danced simply along to the music, not exactly anything to formal or anything too crazy unlike Nino and Alya who were doing god knows what.

Marinette was actually having good and innocent fun and smiled happily. The pair got tired after a while and sat off to the side. She glanced over at Adrien, biting down on her lip before turning away and looking at her phone, scrolling through to see what was going on in Paris while they were gone. Nothing out of the ordinary it seemed to be, things had been pretty calm and she was glad that things were working out without her there.

She was suddenly caught off guard when there was a loud crashing sound and both Marinette and Adrien's heads snapped to the source of the sound. A young woman was on the ground in the middle of glass and spilled alcohol. Standing across from her were Alya, Nino and another man and woman.

Adrien swiftly got up, rushing to go and help the woman off the ground.

"G-get off of me!" She said, pulling her arm away from the teenaged male, her face was red and tearstained and she was upset.

"S-sorry miss I-" Adrien was cut off as the girl went running out of the bar.

"What...happened?" Marinette asked, confused and turned to Alya and Nino.

"I don't know! They got into a huge argument over something and started fighting." Alya explained to the other pair

"Maybe...we should go back home..." Adrien suggested, feeling the suffocating tension inside of the club.

Marinette nodded in agreement and Alya and Nino linked arms.

She had a bad feeling about this, could Hawkmoth akumatize someone who wasn't in Paris? And if he could, would he? He wouldn't know that Ladybug was in China would he?

The group of teens dashed off out of the club and back onto the street before running towards where they were supposed to be staying. They snuck their way as quietly as possible back to the girls room to discuss what happened.

"You think Hawkmoth can akumatize people out here." Alya questioned with a worried expression on her face.

"No! Right? I mean his goal is to get some sort of miraculous thing and he doesn't even know if Ladybug and Chat Noir are here. So even if he could he wouldn't." Marinette explained more to herself then the others.

"That would be cool though wouldn't it? And that would help me maybe figure out who Ladybug is!" Alya smiled.

"Alya." The other three scolded and she laughed.

"I wouldn't reveal her identity to anyone! I'd just want to know and if she appeared here then we'd know it had to be a girl in our class." Alya started to ramble.

"Babe c'mon stop. We've had enough shenanigans for tonight." Nino said and Alya laughed, pecking his cheek.

"Fine, fine!" Alya said as she laced her fingers together with Nino's.

"And plus, Alya. There's probably a bunch of people from France who come and visit China!" Marinette chimed and Adrien nodded in agreement with her.

The one thing that really worried Marinette was if anyone got akumatized back in Paris. She was a 10 hour flight away and while her Miraculous Ladybug could fix all the damage up until when the akumatization first happened, she couldn't imagine what it would be like to be there, wondering when Ladybug and Chat Noir would come save them.

She just hoped Chat Noir could handle thing's until she got back from her trip and was dreading her actual coronation.

The group of kids left the club, walking together and chatting a bit on their way back home about what had happened and what they were going to do during their trip before sneaking back inside and walking to their rooms.

What they weren't expecting was to see an angry Mrs. Bustier standing in the hallway, tapping her foot as she was on the phone. 

She said something quietly before hanging up and turning to look at the kids. 

"Oh no..." Marinette muttered softly under her breath, trying to figure out what they were going to do and coming up with a believable enough lie to save them from ending up getting sent home or something from the trip. 

"Hi...Mrs. Bustier.." Marinette said and laughed awkwardly.

AN: I'm so so so so sorry that I just abandoned this story! I feel so frickin bad, but, life happened and I was on a large haitus from Wattpad in general.

I'm going to try to get back into working on this story, if anyone's still even interested in reading it
