Gilbert and Anne had known each other for years, but the redhead had never been able to forgive him for calling her Carrots. However, after an incident in Maths class, Anne decides to give Gilbert a second chance, so that they can start over.
They had never expected they'd become such an important part of each other's lives until they finally become friends.
But... There's a fine, fine line between a lover and a friend.

Dedicated to: V, B, S, S & M❤️

-Hello, Anne- he said.
-Blythe.
-Oh so we are on surname terms again?- he said with a chuckle.
-We were never off the surname terms, Blythe.
-Remember on maths today? I believe you called me Gilbert.
-Well, your belief is wrong.
-I recall it very specifically actually... you said: "I did it, Gilbert!".
-I did, but I was excited, it doesn't count.
-But you called me by my name, anyway, so it counts.
-No, it does not count.
-But you...
-Ugh, Gilbert Blythe, you are so infuriating!- she shouted and, suddenly, all eyes were on her. She blushed in embarrassment.
-Alright, we were never out of surname terms, Shirley- he said along with a light laugh.
-You are not funny, you know?
-Well, your belief is wrong- he repeated her words mockingly, to which she replied with an eye roll.

"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'm surprised we didn't figure this out sooner within our superhero careers."
"Yeah, it would've been nice to have this before, but hey, better late than never. Make sure not to have your phone screen on the messages if you're going to leave it somewhere. We don't want anyone reading our texts. Also, this is for emergencies only. No jokes or puns. 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.
