3rd Person P.O.V

In Hawkmoth's lair, he took away Glaciators power creates a new Akuma for someone he had wanted to Akumatize since the very beginning. "I knew this was going to be worth it." He said as the Akuma flies out of his hand and heads for Ladybug. He didn't hear her say her real name, but he was sure he heard someone yell something, then birds scampering away in all directions.

---Back on the rooftop with Ladybug and Cat Noir---

"WHAT!!!" Cat Noir yelled while Ladybug put her hands over her mouth. I did not just say that, this is just a dream, I didn't really say that. She kept repeating despite herself. "Nothing, I didn't say anything, you heard wrong!" She shouted not even realizing the Akuma going into her yo-yo. Then everything around her went quiet, only the faint sound of someone calling out her name, when she heard the voice of her enemy call her.

"Hello Lady Misfortune. I am Hawkmoth." She hears his voice echo inside of her head, but before he has any time to say the powers he is giving her, her goal, etc. she heard a voice which most likely belonged to her partner, call out his superpower.  "Cataclysm!" Then Hawkmoth's voice is gone. Cat Noir sees the Akuma fly out of the dust and purify itself, the dust automatically turns back into her yo-yo.  He looks back at Ladybug who was looking at him before she detransformed into Marinette and passed out. 

"Marinette!"  He catches her before she has a chance to touch the ground. He picks her up bridal style and runs to her balcony looking behind him every now making sure the two of then were not being followed when he saw what looks like her ladybug like kwami following close behind with a worried look on her face. Does she not know what is wrong with her? Why did she pass out?

He reached her house, opened her trap door and lays her on her bed carefully. He drops to the ground and starts pacing around the room. His ring then beeps and he detransforms. Plagg flew out of his ring and onto Marinette's chaise that sat behind him. This is the laziest kwami he has ever met, even though a transformation takes a lot out of him, he always acts like it the end of the world whenever Adrien's transformation wares off.

"Plagg come and take your food." He says to his kwami. He flies up and takes the cheese out of his holders hand and looks up to see Tikki "Hey sugar cube, long time no see." He says and she looks at Plagg while sitting on her owner's chest. "Thank you for bringing her here, I know she would have appreciated that." 

"I am so dumb, I can't believe I thought Lila was Ladybug. She's so selfish, how did I believe her in the first place?" He said in an angry tone. "Well everybody but Marinette drank a smoothie, and everybody but her believed it, but she is Ladybug, so the smoothie wouldn't have even affected her, because she already knew the truth."

"That's it, there is no way I am dating a girl who is this crazy. (A/N Adrien, you ain't seen nothing yet)  Plagg, claws out!" He transforms but then hears Marinette waking up and rushes to her bedside and helps her sit up straight, against her wall, but with some pillows behind her back. "What happened?" She asked him, looking around the room, taking in her surroundings . "Milady you were almost Akumatized."

Her eyes widened, the last thing she remembered was her accidentally screaming out her identity to Cat Noir. "I'm so sorry Cat, I just got so mad when everyone believed Lila, especially when you did, I thought it was obvious." 

"How did she get everyone to believe her in the first place?" He asked, confused thinking about it even now. "Well, there is a serum that can make anyone who drinks it believe you, the only antidote is to hear the truth. After you heard the truth of who Ladybug was, you didn't believe Lila anymore." 

"But, then how did you believe her if you did not drink a smoothie? You're not in my class." She said and his eyes widened. Trying to come up with a reasonable explanation, but nothing came to him. "I... Umm... Oh, I give up, claws in." Her eyes widen before she covers them. "No! I can't know who you are. It needs to stay a secret." Adrien's eyes went soft and he lightly grabbed her wrists. "Marinette, open your eyes, please. I promise you won't regret it." He begged. She sighed and slowly took her hands away from her eyes. "Adrien!?" She yelled and slipped and fell off the bed.

He leaps off the bed and kneels next to her. "Are you alright Marinette?" He says and stands her up. "Am I okay, I just found out that I have been rejecting the love of my life all this time. So yeah I'm perfect."

He stands up and backs away a bit. "Wait... 'The love of your life?'" He said, and she could hear the smirk in his voice. He could see her blushing from embarrassment. "I mean... What I mean
is-" But before she could finish her sentence he grabbed her by the shoulders and kissed her.

In Marinette's mind, she thought that if they revealed they're identities, it would make everything awkward and they wouldn't fight together the same anymore, sure her being afraid of him knowing that the Miraculous Ladybug was clumsy Marinette was apart of it, but that was not the only thing, but with everything that has happened, which she still couldn't believe, Marinette knew that her assumption was wrong in every way possible. And she loved it.
