Ship: Daminette

Friend zoned, Hard zoned

Her laugh brought him joy, sounding so much like the nickname he had given her,

Angel

When did he start liking her as more than a friend?

Damian and Marinette were currently on patrol. Them having taken a break after taking down a couple of petty thugs. He had been in the middle of recalling something when she laughed - beautifully, might he add - so out of the blue.

"What is so funny, Angel?"

"Oh. Oh nothing. It's just, you look hilarious when you pout." And then she was in a giggling fit, probably recalling how he looked.

Damian was about to protest. But then he thought,

Is it really worth fighting if the outcome of her teasing him was that angelic laugh?

No, of course not.

Suddenly, as if his mouth had opened of its own accord,

"I really want to kiss those beautiful lips of yours, Nette."

Damian's eyes widened and a growing blush was visible from his neck up.

Marinette went red in the face after she heard what he had said.

"Robin... I only think of you as a friend. Besides," At this she side-eyed him before elbowing him in the gut, "I'll knock you on your ass if you even think about it! "

And with that, she promptly tossed her yoyo and swung away, leaving a flabbergasted and friend zoned Damian behind.
