Marinette is finally ready to tell Adrien how she feels. She's ready to tell the boy of her dreams how much she loves him. But what if he was to turn her down? ~~~ Turning Marinette down because of his love and devotion to Ladybug, Adrien realizes his mistake when he discovers he's had a crush on the designer all along without even realizing it. But how can he tell her this after turning her away? And how can he get her to understand why he did it? Adrien tries - he tries everything in order to get Marinette to forgive him. Even if that means a stray, alley-cat showing up on her balcony every night. One thing can lead to another - possibly a kiss? Will Adrien be able to dig himself out of an even deeper hole before Marinette discovers who is really behind the mask? ______________________________________ 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐬- #1 in #miraculous on 8/6/19, #2 in #miraculous on 8/8/19, #3 in #miraculousladybug on 8/10/19, #1 in #ladybug on 11/23/19, #2 in #ladybug on 8/4/20, #1 in #chatnoir on 5/21/20, #2 in #chatnoir on 5/22/20, #1 in #marichat on 5/25/20, #2 in #marichat on 5/26/20, #3 in #marichat on 5/30/20, #1 in #adrien on 6/10/20, #1 in #adrienxmarinette on 2/15/20, #1 in #marinette on 6/26/20, #1 in #dramatic on 2/27/20, #3 in #dramatic on 6/1/20, and #1 in #ladynoir on 2/23/21 Started: December 14th, 2016 Finished: June 16th, 2017
