Marinette Dupain-Cheng, also the masked heroine of Paris, has been crushing on Adrien Agreste since he first transferred to their school.
The mean girl of the school, Chloe Bourgeois, knowing this, decides to set up a nasty phone call for Marinette, successfully causing her to believe that Adrien is a jerk. Her prank goes further than she intended, making Adrien chase after Marinette hopelessly, unknowing of the reason behind her sudden hatred toward him.
Chloe begins to feel guilty when she sees that Marinette pushes away her friends, due to her sudden change in personality. Adrien, a boy she'd known since she was a child, is hurt by Marinette's burning hatred.
Will Chloe finally confess her prank to save Adrienette before it's too late?

Warning: I wrote this cringe-fest in the summer of 2016.
Adrien had always been very sure of his feelings for Ladybug, but a lack of akuma attacks coupled with a patrol hiatus has him seeing less of the spotted heroine and more of his sweet and clumsy classmate Marinette.
Meanwhile Adrien and Chloe are set to sing a duet at the up coming Charity Auction hosted by Mayor Bourgeois in association with Gabriel Agreste. When Chloe is too sick to rehearse, Marinette is volunteered by Alya as a temporary replacement. Will Adrien finally start to see Marinette as more than just a friend?
Fluff, Lila stirring trouble and classroom shenanigans round out this feel good reveal story.
