Queen of Lies

Chapter Five- The Date

Adrien P.O.V

I pull away first and look into Lila's eyes. She's just as shocked as I am. I just laugh and smile, though it still didn't feel right. "So, I was wondering if you wanted to go out and grab a coffee tomorrow after school?" She just looked at me with her wide bright green eyes, wait a minute Ladybug's eyes are blue- "Yes!!!" She yelled as she interrupted my thoughts. Wait, what was I just thinking about again? 

I let that thought go to the back of my mind as I hug her. "That sounds great I guess I'll see you then," I kissed her cheek and walk out the door, questioning if my love for her was real or not.

---The next day after school---

Lila P.O.V

"Are you ready for our date?" I look at Adrien holding his hand out for me. I smile and take it. "As ready as I'll ever be." I say before stepping into his car. He shuts the door and walks to the other side and sits by me.

I look out the window and see Marinette looking at me with wide eyes, so I just open the window and smirk at her. She just glares at me before I wave and we drive off. This day is just getting better and better. I told her I would take Adrien away from her. She shouldn't have messed with me, that is the one mistake that everyone makes. Everyone that can figure it out I mean.

Adrien P.O.V

I'm looking out my window when Lila puts my arm around her, I didn't like it, but I calmed down and pulled her close. Why am I feeling this way, I love her. I always did when she was Ladybug, so why is this any different? She is still the same person, she just looks different. Different hair, different eyes, different voice. It's just because the Miraculous changes your appearance. My eyes turn fully green and my hair changes so it's not really that surprising. I just didn't think of it that way and it's fine. 

---At the Cafe---

I open the door for her and we walk inside with our fingers locked together. I pulled out her chair for her because  I was taught to have manners since I was in diapers. "Thank you." "No problem M'lady." She sits down and I turn around to grab our drinks, but out of the corner of my eye, I see her blush. I smile, grab our drinks and sit down. I got a chai latte, (Favorite drink from Starbucks)and she got a vanilla bean frappuccino.

"So... Do you have any hobbies?" I ask trying to make some conversation. She looks at the ground and smirks then looks back up at me. "No, not really." Okay, if I was being honest, this was one of the worst dates I have ever been on. Sure I have only been on two, counting this one, and it was an arranged date with Kagami, but it was embarrassing. Especially since there were cameras watching us everywhere. Some of them were from the paparazzi, and others were hidden so my father could watch and make sure things were going as plan, but in the end, everyone figured out it was fake. So at least this is A real date with the girl of my dreams   "Any idea what you want to do career-wise?" "Well being Ladybug is a full-time job so I'm kind of committed to that. You know, saving the world with Cat Noir."

"Cool, so tell me one of your superhero stories." I was hoping she would say something about me, well my alter ego. I wanted to know what the unmasked version of her thought of him. "There's so many of them, I don't know which one to choose." She said looking at me kind of nervous, and I thought that I saw a bead of sweat roll down her forehead, but then she wiped it off and blamed it on how hot she was. The funny thing was, it felt like if was in the sixty's in that place. The air was on, so how could she be hot.

There was once again, an explosion, followed by screams of frightened Persians. Only this time I was relieved, It meant I got to leave and get one step closer to defeating the man who was trying to destroy us. 

"A supervillain, you have to go," I say and she looks out the window then back at me. "Ok, but I had a great time." She kisses me then leaves. I sneak out the back door and transform. Plagg must be tired from all of these transformations, but hey, they are all necessary if we want to win.

Marinette/Ladybug P.O.V

I jump onto a rooftop and see Glaciator turning people into ice cream. "Okay, this time it was not me." I hear someone land behind me. I turn around to see my feline partner, Cat Noir. "Hey there Lila, fancy meeting you here." I try to brush off the anger that is burning bright inside of me, but he sees me and puts a hand on my shoulder. "Are you ok Lila?" I smack his hand back and start to run in the opposite direction from him, but I can hear his footsteps behind me. Why did he have to be so much faster than me? 

He grabs my hand "Lila, come on, you can tell me,  what's wrong?" I was boiled up with so much anger that I yanked my hand back, turned around, and yelled at the top of my lungs, something I knew I would regret the moment I said it. "I'M NOT LILA, I'M MARINETTE!" ... This won't end well.

There you got your reveal are you happy?

Do you have any questions for me cause I have one? Am I the only one who wanted to puke when I read this
