The New Guardian

Unlucky Confessions

Previously: I open my arms to have her fall into them and we lay there in the bed. "Of course, Princess. I understand. How can I compete with a model?" I ask laughing, "Plus I have Ladybug. So are you gonna date Adrien since he likes you?" I ask, confident the answer is yes.

"I-I don't think so..."

~This chapter is in Marinettes POV~

"W-Why no-" I cut Chat off.

"I know, I know! It doesn't make any sense but," I cry into his chest a little as he hugs me tighter, "He's talking to another girl. She's my friend! She's going to be devastated when he breaks it off with her and she's going to hate me if she finds out it was because of me. If he wants to date me and I ask Kagami if it's okay with her and she tells me no then I won't date him. As much as I love him, I won't break my friends heart and trust for a boy. Even if it makes me happy." I sob.

I can feel Chats heart racing through his suit. "B-But! Marinette! You love him! A-And he loves you! How could you not be with him?"

"You're right, but she's my friend. He chose her over me when I waited nearly 4 long years for him. I moved on for ONE day and he suddenly wants me? I don't know. I don't want to ruin my friendship with Kagami and I don't want to lead Luka on."

"What if Kagami and Luka were okay with it?" He begged.

"Then I would have no problem giving him a chance. Why are you taking this harder than I am?" I asked sarcastically, still crying.

"I-I don't know. I just think that if you love someone and they love you back then you should be together. I think they'd get over eventually anyways."

"Maybe. But he also thinks I'm with Luka now. I tried to tell him I was confused but he just walked out! He wouldn't even listen to me. I don't know..."

"I'm sorry." He says, sulking.

"Sorry for? It's not like you did anything wrong, Chaton." I say reassuringly, hugging him tighter.

"I, uh, just mean I'm sorry for, um, your situation. I'm sure Adrien didn't mean it like that. Maybe when he comes back he'll apologize. He probably just got upset at the thought of losing you. Just give him some time, you told me before he's a nice guy."

"I guess you're right. Maybe I'm just being dramatic." I say, sitting up.

Chat grabs my shoulders making me face him, "You're not being dramatic. He upset you. If anything, he's the one being dramatic. Just trust me on this one, Purincess."

"Thanks Chat. I needed to hear that. You're a great friend and a great guy, I'm sorry it didn't work out between us." I reach up and twirl the end of his hair again then hold his cheek and smile at him.

"Thank you, Marinette. It's okay, no one is more sorry than I am." He says, putting his hand on mine on his cheek. "But before we part ways, is it too bold of me to ask for one last kiss?"

I feel my face heat and my heart starts racing. Fuck it. If I can't make up my mind why not at least distract it. "Fine, but only if we agree that this is completely no strings attached."

"Of course." He says, moving in closer and closing his eyes. I do the same and our lips meet.

His kiss is so gentle and sweet. We stay like this, then suddenly we both start kissing each other again and again, every time with more passion. We start making out and I lay back on the bed while Chat crawls over me. I wrap my arms around his neck and he wraps his around my waist. He kisses my cheek then down my neck and onto my collarbone. I let a moan escape my mouth and he does the same into my ear.
