Marinette's birthday has been going great- a trip to Spain, seeing her family camp, and- of course- the opportunity to get closer to Adrien. But something threatens to take Marinette away from it all...
...her friends, and her past life.
Hi there! T...
A/N: Hi guys! Apart from the ones where I ask you questions, this is probably my most important A/N, so listen up! Okay, so you know how I've been editing chapters instead of writing them? Well, there was supposed to be another edited chapter from the old story, but there was so much plot to rewrite (since I didn't want the reveal to happen this way) so I just decided not to use it. So, NOW I'M WRITING THE CHAPTERS MYSELF (INCLUDING THIS CHAPTER!)! I'm excited about this! That being said, please bear in mind that it will take me a bit longer to update. Anyway, let's get into the chapter! I can finally say the plot is now mine (not to be rude, sorry)!
Is anyone interested in a face reveal? I'd have to work up the courage though lol!

Marinette's POV
I slowly walked back to the balcony, frantically searching for a believable excuse. Cat? Nah. The plates fell? Nope. The smoke alarm went off? That's just pathetic. Chat Noir came to visit and knocked over some cups?
Woah. Where did that one come from?
Lost in my thoughts, I failed to notice the sliding glass doors right in front of me. With a loud SMACK! I smashed into the door, my face pressed against the glass, before sliding down and groaning in agony. Adrien gasped and rushed to my aid, carefully checking me over. "Are you okay Marinette?" he asked worriedly.
I groaned and sat up. "I'm okay." I checked myself for bruises (there were a couple, which alarmed me) and sat up, wincing.
"What happened back there?" he questioned whilst looking at my knee which was slowly turning purple.
"Oh uh, Alya was sleepwalking and knocked over the fruit bowl! Yeah! I helped her back into bed and cleaned up the mess."
"Oh okay. Anyway, we'd better get back to bed," Adrien suggested, "c'mon."
I nodded in agreement. We closed the door and headed back inside.
~TIME SKIPPPPPPPP~
I woke up in the morning to the annoying shrilling of my alarm. I slammed my hand down on top of the clock and groggily sat up, running a hand through my messy hair. After fifteen eventful minutes which included Tikki trying to pull me out of bed and me falling on the floor (thankfully everyone else was still asleep) I sat up and made my way to the bathroom to get ready for the day. I did my morning routine and selected my clothes for the day.

(A/N: So basically that with black jeans)
As I got dressed, I remembered that I had to see Chat at 2. How the heck was I supposed to get away from my friends? Oh well, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it, I thought, stepping out of the bathroom. Sunlight streamed into the quiet bedroom. Alya and Nino were still asleep, tangled in the massive duvet, whilst Adrien was just getting up from our bed. He yawned, rubbed his eyes and smiled tiredly at me. "Morning Marinette." Suddenly, he seemed to register what I was wearing and fully snapped to attention, all traces of weariness gone. He barely managed to stammer out the words, "I-I didn't know y-you were a f-fan of Ch-Chat Noir!" before a fierce blush crept up his face, setting his cheeks ablaze.
