Miraculous Ladybug - Underwater Kiss

Le Underwater

Adrien POV

I can't believe what just happened! I told Marinette I loved her. And she said she loved me back.

I gotta be honest, I've always had a minor crush on Marinette, ever since my first day of school. 

~Flashback~

I held out my umbrella to Marinette, who hesitated. I smiled and looked into her eyes. They're so beautiful. . . Marinette slowly accepted the umbrella. Once she had the umbrella in her grasp, it closed on her head. I laughed at her clumsiness. She lifted the front of the umbrella and laughed along. The soothing sound of her laughter. . .

 I chuckled, "see you tomorrow."

I walk down the steps to the car. Plagg pokes out of my shirt, "first day of school and we already have two lovebirds," I scoff, "Whatever, she's just a friend," (God take me from this world and give this cinnamon roll a brain) that's when it hit me, "a-a friend." I blushed at the thought. I thought nothing of it and entered the car.

~End of Flashback~

The Limo drove up to the school. I got out of the car and walked over to where Nino and Alya were, right outside the school. I didn't see Marinette, so I'm thinking she's late again. 

"Hey guys," I greet my friends. They greet me back. The bell rang, and we headed inside and got seated. Marinette had entered the class a few minutes after class started. We didn't talk to each other all morning, because of yesterday.

I needed to talk to her. I wanted to clear some things up. I heard Mari and Alya whispering. I picked up some words they were saying, and soon the whole conversation. My cat hearing really does help at times like this. 

"Girl, you confessed, and he confessed, why are you so upset?" I heard Alya ask. Mari groaned, "you won't understand"

The lunch bell rang. Everyone went rushing out of the room. Except for me and Marinette. 

Marinette got up and slowly walked to the door. Before she left the room, I quickly got up and grabbed her arm. "Marinette," I feel her flinch. That came out too harsh. "Marinette," I said her name, this time softer. She turned. 

Her face was red, with some tear stains. I gasp. Was she crying? Was it because of me? If so, I'd never forgive myself. "Marinette, are you okay?" I ask. "Just peachy," She answers. she smiles. How can she smile right after crying?

"Look, Marinette, I've noticed that you've been ignoring me. Do you hate me? After what happened at the pool, you've been keeping your distance from me." I asked. I had to get that off my chest.

Marinette POV

"Look, Marinette, I've noticed that you've been ignoring me. Do you hate me? After what happened at the pool, you've been keeping your distance from me." Adrien asked.

How can he think that I hate him?

I've been keeping my distance from him because I thought that he didn't wanna hang out with me.

"What? N-no, of course not! I-I've been k-keeping my distance b-because I thought t-that you disliked me after what happened! I'd n-never hate you! I love you!" I exclaimed. I gasp, realizing what I just said. 

I love you.

Did I really just say that?

"I-I mean uh-" I stutter. 

"Don't worry, I love you too," Adrien blurted out.

I gasp again.

Next thing I know, our lips were connected. My eyes widen, but I close them. The kiss was passionate. Deep, but gentle. (This is like my fave part to write)
