The Naked Truth

Exposed!

It was after a while that she had been soaking in the bath that Marinette picked up her phone and her hand went back to the conversation with Adrien. She smiled cunningly and raised an eyebrow at her phone. Of course, why not? She gathered a few bubbles to cover her body the best she could. Then she took a picture and added on,

Marinette: [Getting ready for a cat visit!]

A couple of minutes after she hit send, she heard her phone buzzing again. A quick glance at the message made her burst into a laugh.

Chaton: [Do you want me to come over tonight? Because at this rate, I won't come, I'll be dead. I just choked on my food. Badly.]

Marinette: [LOL. Sorry, Chaton]

Chaton: [No, you're not sorry. Tell the truth, you're laughing]

Marinette: [Touché. But I told the truth. I'm getting all nice and ready for you. Prefer knickers on or off?]

Chaton: [M'lady!!!! è_é]

Marinette: [XD]

Chaton: [*pouts*]

Marinette: [Aw, c'me here, Minou, I'll kiss that adorable pout off your face!]

Chaton: [Adorable pout?]

Marinette: [Uh... well, we have promised to tell the truth, right?]

Chaton: [Wait. So you weren't joking about the knickers?]

A gentle knock at the door woke Marinette up from her reverie. "Yes?"

"How long are you going to be, Marinette? I could have had four showers in the meantime," said Alya from behind the bathroom's door.

Marinette blushed. "Uh, sorry Alya, I'll be out in a minute." That said, she stood quickly from the tub and proceeded to dry herself. After drying her skin, she rummaged in her drawers until she found a new body cream that she had recently bought. She opened it up and the smell of strawberries and vanilla hit her nostrils. Mhhhh that smelled nice. She proceeded to apply a generous amount on her skin.

When she was finished and had put some clothes on, she grabbed again her phone and noticed that a certain someone had sent her a few messages. She looked them up and she couldn't avoid widening her eyes at the sight.

Chaton: [M'lady? Tell me more about the knickers!]

Chaton: [MARINETTE!!!!]

Chaton: [Okay, I'll take a shower myself then. Need one after fencing]

After that, there was the reason for her eyes nearly popping out. Adrien had taken his sweet revenge. In full display on her phone was a picture of his abs, wet and dripping with soap.

Chaton: [I'm also getting ready for you, M'lady. Can't wait.]

Uh... he couldn't do that to her. Her brain stopped working for a second and resumed its activity only because Alya banged at the door again. Marinette looked around and suddenly, she smirked, her gaze eyeing her sponge cunningly.

Marinette: [Such a pity you're showering at home. I could have kept you company...]

She attached a picture of the sponge and hit send. Then she came out of the bathroom whistling happily, her phone held by the hem of her trousers, her hands still towel drying her hair, her cunning smile still curling her lips.

"Finally!" sighed Alya. "Should we get something to eat?"

oOoOoOoOoOo

Adrien had spent the whole day on tenterhooks. His boner had been coming and going—it had the very bad habit of reappearing the very second he started thinking about Marinette. Which was a lot of times, counting that she was right behind him and very often their gazes crossed when he just turned around to pick up something from his bag. While it had been easy to hide it during the afternoon lesson, he found it quite difficult to concentrate, and had feared to really embarrass himself during fencing. Luckily for him, he had managed to keep her out of his head long enough to go through the hour without major issues.
