☛ Hi there. Welcome to the progression of my writing style and expanse in grammar. This book has been an ongoing experiment and attempt to improve my skills, and so far it seems to be working.

It's coming up to the end of the school year, and Marinette is eager to confess to Adrien about her feelings.. this will definitely be a memorable summer break.

This is a Miraculous AU, where LadyBug and ChatNoir don't exist as superheroes, but gamer-tags in an online chat room. Marinette acts as a mix of both her and Ladybug, she's more confident. Adrien, the same, he makes puns and is a little flirty. It's Marinette's first year of high school. She's meeting new friends and getting to know Paris. Over the summer she met a friend online. ChatNoir. They're really friends, though they've never met in person. It's a crazy first year. *Short Story* ********************************************************* I don't own these characters!!!!! I don't take credit for any of the art!!! I'd really appreciate your feedback. And I hope you enjoy the story. :) Edited and Complete! #69 - adrien 05/27/2021 #4 - miraculousau
