Marinette Dupain-Cheng, a completely, ordinary girl. Or so I thought... Ever since I started public school, I had noticed her. She was absolutely gorgeous. But there was something about her, the way her lips curved in a smile threw me off the edge. But she was different... Secretive. Ladybug was amazing, she was the one I had always and would never stop loving. But here she was, Marinette Dupain-Cheng, making her way into my heart. But she was just an ordinary girl... Right?

"Anyway, that piece of paper contains the name of this texting app. It's completely anonymous, so you can download it, make your account with no attachments to your personal life, and communicate with me outside our suits. I included my username on the paper, too, so you can add me once you're done." Her partner skimmed through the words on the paper and nodded his head. "Brilliant as always, M'lady.

I can only deal with you for so long." "I don't know if I can agree to that last one," he said. Now 22 and working full-time, Marinette and Adrien seem to be getting busier and busier, which means fewer opportunities to keep track of akumas and show up on time. With the idea of using a messaging app to communicate with each other without revealing their identities, their lives immediately grew to be easier... until it wasn't. **Fanfic has been transferred from Ao3.

Adrien is bound to a loveless marriage as a last hope in pleasing his father, who is still mourning the death of his precious wife, Emilie Agreste. Dreadfully foreseeing his bitter future with vain Lila Rossi of the high society, his paled life is given new meaning when the daughter of the local baker stumbles unto the steps of the estate.

Note: Their superhero counterparts are not included in this story. Takes place in 20th century France.

Marinette has finally had enough of her class. Things would only get worse as the days went by. When her best friend comes up with a suggestion, will she take it? Of course she will! And hopefully, it's worth it.

Ladybug turned slightly and the arms around her tightened possessively. A flutter of pleasure rippled through her body for a second before she squashed it. She had woken up in a strange place, being held by some mysterious stranger who...just happened to be in really good shape. Then she caught sight of the face the arms belonged to and her heart did a little backflip.

How would you act if the stranger next to you needed CPR? What would happen if you received bad press for undressing said stranger, in public, just to save their lives? Just how far can the Good Samaritan & Failure to Render Aid Laws be pushed? How much does one, single life cost? _______ Adrienette AU
