"Why are you doing this?" She asked suddenly, and he smiled. "I'm not sure, Marinette... It feels right." Marinette frowned, crossing her arms. "Then... Why do you have to be a criminal? Why do you have to steal?" She asked bluntly, and he simply shrugged. "I'm not in it for the money, I'm in it for the rush." He said softly, a smirk curling across his lips as he drew closer. His electric green eyes piercing into hers as he leaned over her. "Just because I'm a criminal doesn't mean I'm a bad guy..." he whispered, she felt the heat pool in her stomach as his lips brushed against hers. *** (Miraculous characters belong to Thomas Astruc/Zag Studios) Marichat Fan fiction Adrienette fluff WARNING: Mature content
