Crush

18

Marinette... And my Adri-kins are dating? But Marinette cheated?

Chloe listened to the recording again and again. If I release this video to everyone, everyone will know the kind of person Marinette is. A cheater.

And how can Adrien not hate her?! How did she even get to kiss Cat Noir?! What did she do?

This makes me want to investigate...

"Are you still feeling bad about it?" Adrien asked, as they exited the movie theater.

Marinette sighed. "Yeah, kinda. How do you not hate me though?"

"It was a mistake. Forget about it." As long as you weren't lying when you said you enjoyed it... And that you wanted it to happen again... Then it's fine.

Marinette gave him a small smile. "Thanks. I honestly didn't expect this."

Adrien nodded and looked at his watch. "Oh, I gotta go. I'll see you later, okay?" Adrien placed a kiss on her forehead before waving goodbye.

She waved back and started heading home as well. She had somewhere to go. The patrol with Chat.

She wasn't exactly looking forward to seeing Cat Noir, but as long as he didn't know it was her, everything would he great.

"Tikki, spots on." She said gloomily. She still felt bad. And to gain Adrien's trust again, she had to make up for it, which was exactly what she was going to do.

Swinging with the help of her yoyo, and landing and jumping up from buildings, she landed at her destination.

Cat Noir was sitting, seemed to be deep in thought. He didn't come to greet her like he always did. He didn't even look up.

Was he feeling guilty for kissing her when he realized she already had a boyfriend?

She walked up to him, clearing her throat and gaining hack his attention.

"Everything okay?"

That was when she noticed the smile on his face.

"Yeah. Just thinking about the next place to take my girlfriend to." He blurted, making her look surprised.

"You- you have a girlfriend?" She gulped, feeling even more guilty. If Cat Noir had a girlfriend, that meant he had cheated with her. She didn't want that.

Cat Noir looked up again, clamping his mouth. "Sorry, I didn't mean to say that out loud." He got up and walked past her. "Don't tell me you're jealous, Ladybug."

"What?!" She exclaimed, folding her arms. "Am not. Why would I be jealous?!"

Cat Noir shrugged. "Okay, okay, no need to yell. I get it, you don't like me. You only like Adrien."

Ladybug stopped. "How did you know about him?"

Cat Noir stopped. He didn't mean to blurt that one either. "He- he told me that you confessed to him. By the way, just to tell you, Adrien already has a girlfriend, so..."

"I know," She smirked. You're talking to her right now. "And before you say anything, I'm not jealous. When I confessed to Adrien, it was only just a dare. I don't actually like him. Besides, Marinette is my friend, and I would never crush in the boy she likes."

"Wait..." Cat Noir frowned. "How do you know Marinette is his girlfriend?"

"Eh.. Uh... Well, Marinette of course told me. How lucky she is, right?" She laughed it off. "Anyway, let's get straight to patrol."

"Right." Cat Noir didn't seem to believe her though. There was something about the way she spoke that made it sound like she's lying.

But he was also caught off guard by something else.

It had only been a dare. Ladybug didn't actually like Adrien. Why did it make him... Disappointed?

Adrien, you're so sick! You have Marinette, yet you're thinking about Ladybug. You're so cruel!

"Are you okay?"

Cat Noir snapped his eyes back at Ladybug who was still looking at him. "I'm just... Sick." He decided.

"Well, you can go home if you want. I can take care of things around here. Besides, Paris seen to be at peace."

"No, no, it's fine." He didn't want to leave. The only way he could see Ladybug was as Cat Noir, and he was going to take that chance.

Even if it meant his crush growing more on her.

I think I'm gonna make Chloe be good, because as you can see there's already a problem going on with these two dense couple, so... Yeah...
