"Why me?"

Adrian p.o.

"What?" I asked her.

Marinette just stood there, staring at me like she was in pain. But only in her expression on her face. Her eyes were a different story.

They seemed like they were sad and almost lost. As if my question hurt her and she didn't know what to do. But she was also looking at me as if she was still thinking about this question.

Mari p.o.

Adrian asked me out. He just asked me out. And what were my first words to him?

"Why me?"

But it was true. Why me? He could ask any girl out. Any girl. But no. After I finally got over him, he pulls me back. Like I was a pawn in his game.

Is this what it was? Just a game to him? No. How could he do that? He couldn't have known about Chat. So, he wasn't playing with me.

But, then again. I didn't know what to say. Words failed me and I couldn't even node shake my head. But then again, I didn't know my answer.

"Um, uh..." I said.

Just then a loud boom came. Must be an akuma. Everyone looked that way. Just then a teacher came out to greet us.

"Sorry about that." She said, holding two broken containers. Both of them now empty.  "I had no idea how this happened. Maybe I mixed the wrong ingredients." She then walked back into the classroom.

The principal came out of his office and came down to us. "Awe man, she blew up the classroom again?" He asked to no one. Just then, the teacher came walking out of her classroom.

"Sorry about that." She said.

"Sorry? You blew up the whole classroom again. How are we supposed to teach these students now?" He asked.

I walked over to the two of them. Happy to get away from answering Adrian's question.  I walked up to them. "Um, excuse me."

"Yes, Marinette?" They both said.

"Um, I was wondering if maybe, since the classroom is..." I said, pointing to it. "...*cough *, you know, maybe we could go on a field trip instead?" I asked.

"What a great idea, Marinette. How about you all choose where to go. Ok?"

"Ok." I said. I walked back to everyone else.

"What happened?" Alya asked.

"The classroom blew up, so today we're going on a trip." I said, happily.

Everyone cheered, but one. Where was he?

Adrian p.o.

She never answered my question. Of course she wouldn't. Why would she? I hung out with her as Chat Noir. Not Adrian. And Adrian just asked her out, out of nowhere.

This was definitely something Chat should've done. I then thought about it. Maybe I could still ask her out as Chat. I quickly ran into an alley and transformed.

Mari p.o.

I looked everywhere for Adrian. But I still didn't know what to say to him. Yes or no? Both answers would change my life forever. Both are for the better. But which one do I choose?

Adrian, a nice, cute guy. Who held out his umbrella for me in the pouring rain. The guy I had a crush on for almost a year.

But Chat Noir. At first, I thought he was a flirty, pun loving guy. But now, I see more of him. He has a soft heart, that needs to be cared for. He seemed like her was scared to lose me when Mother Nater got me. He saw that I was worth losing a miraculous. He would give up being Chat Noir, for me.

Someone that was so cool and calm all the time. He was afraid of losing me. A nobody.

I then knew my answer. I had to find Adrian first. But where was he?

In the alley

I stood there in shock. He was here Adrian was here. But, so was Chat Noir. Both guys I loved was here. And they were both the same person.

He turned around and saw me standing there. His eyes widened as he saw me.

My eyes were tearing up,  but I refused to let a tear fall. All this time, they were the same person. I fell for both of them, but I never let myself think of them being the same person.  I was just thinking of choosing one of them.

Now that I know that they're the same person, I was speechless.

He just stood there. He smiled awkwardly and rubbed the back of his neck. "Um, hey Marinette. Didn't see you there." He said.

I couldn't even talk. Instead I just ran. Ran away from him. From Chat Noir. From fear. From joy. From happiness. From sadness. From everything.
