Chapter 3: Blushing Adrien

After that last encounter on patrol, Ladybug could not face Chat Noir without letting a blush creep onto her face. And it was really making her upset.

That stupid cat was enjoying it.

Come on! How would he act if his crush was suddenly his partner? Or, he thought she was.

Anyways, Hawkmoth must really enjoy her suffering since he was sending an Akuma practically everyday now. It was getting really annoying, and the akuma's names weren't even as clever as they used to be.

(Seriously, 'Guitar Villain')

He must be getting really desperate. Or he was hoping all the attacks would ware the two of them out.

Which they kinda were, considering how much sleep Marinette was getting. But she wouldn't let her guard down.

Besides, she was still trying to figure if Adrien is really Chat Noir. She was starting to notice the similarities between the two. Getting a closer look at his eyes, she noticed they were that same shade of green she loved seeing everyday. She noticed they had the same cute smile she fell in love with when he'd given her his umbrella. The same charm he showed as Chat Noir shown as Adrien when he helped Marinette out with her Uncle.

Her feelings her her partner were clear now too. She had been falling in love with Chat Noir, especially after kissing him. To break that spell or not, it was real.

Explaining that to Adrien...

O-Only if he's Chat, obviously.

But how would she tell Chat?

Remember that list of racing thoughts? Yeah, there's another thing to add to it.

Adrien was enjoying his time with Ladybug as Chat. He didn't miss that blush on her cheeks when he grinned at her.

It was cute.

Man, Adrien has really fallen hard for that girl. Both sides of her.

He was sure Marinette was Ladybug, now. It wasn't hard to miss the obvious similarities in their appearances. Plus the reasons that made him suspect her in the first place.

Staring, uh, I-I mean glancing often, at Marinette, Adrien was able to fall in love with her more. He liked the way she laughed with Alya and joked around with her. He liked how she stood up for others and also helped them out. She could even cheer people up when they were down. She really was Ladybug, and was even like her when she wasn't in costume.

How had Adrien not fallen for her sooner?

Well, actually, technically he had, but he hadn't known Ladybug was Mari at the time.

Now he knows and he's fallen in love with her more.

And she liked him! He thought that she hated him after that awful first meeting. But how could he think that? Marinette didn't even hate Chloe.

There goes Adrien being a dummy again.

'This is a terrible idea. I'm such a moron! What am I even going to say to her?' Adrien was currently standing outside Marinette's parent's bakery. He was going to talk to her, but he had completely forgotten what he wanted to say.

Why did he let Nino and Alya talk him into this again?

Maybe he could ask her about being a designer?

Ah, yes! That would work, his father being a designer and all.

Okay, let's do this Adrien.

He took a deep breath and walked inside, ignoring two grinning people that looked suspiciously like Nino and Alya.

Wait, did she have her phone out?

M-Maybe he should just go and not embarrass himself today where Alya can send it to the entire-

"A-Adrien?"

Too late.

"O-Oh, hey Marinette! How are you?" Adrien waved a hand at her.

''How are you?' What kind of greeting is that?!' Adrien mentally smacked himself. He could hear Plagg laughing at him. Marinette just gave him a smile. There was a small blush on her cheeks, but Adrien was sure his face was a tomato.

"I-I'm good, thanks. What about you?" She asked him as she put away some of the pastries into the displays.

"Me? I'm fine."

"That's good to hear. So, did you want something?" Marinette hopped up and looked up at him.

Yeah, he was definitely a tomato. Good thing it was getting colder and he wore a scarf today. At least he would be able to hide his tomato red face.

"Um, a-anything you'd recommend?" Marinette put her thumb on her lips and Adrien stared.

He really wanted to kiss her.

His face went a deeper shade of red. 'Where did that come from!?' He thought as he tried to get rid of his blush.

"Hold on." She crouched down and took a pastry from on of they trays. It looked like a danish with red and black looking fruit filling on top of it.

Like a ladybug.

"Here, I made this myself, with red and black cherries." Adrien finally took down his scarf, taking the danish from her. He smiled at her.

"Looks like a ladybug." Marinette blushed.

"U-Uh, I'm a fan of her and they're really popular with customers. Especially Alya." She smiled. Adrien took a bite of it.

It was delicious.

"This is amazing! I can see why they're so popular. This tastes great!" Marinette blushed again.

"Th-thank you." Marinette smiled at him. He grinned back and ate the rest of it.

Eventually, the both of them got to talking, and blushing, and Adrien was so happy that she didn't seem to hate him. But then he remember that Nino told him she like him, and blushed like a tomato again. He was also really happy that she could now talk to him and hold a conversation.

He fell more in love with each word that she spoke to him.

Man, he'd fallen hard for her. But he was glad.

So glad that he totally didn't see Alya and Nino filming the two of them on their phones.

Chapter 2: Starring at school

"So, my lady, how did your Valentine's Day go?" Chat Noir asked Ladybug as they were on patrol the night after. Adrien figured, if he figured out Marinette's identity, he should give up his to her.

But obviously not by telling her. That would be too easy.

So this was how he would start, by giving he hints to get her closer to his identity as Chat Noir.

Anyways, Ladybug looked in surprise at him.

"Don't you think it's too late now? That was a week ago." Chat shrugged and grinned.

"Well, I didn't get to ask you then. Both our miraculous kept beeping right after an Akuma attack."

"Yeah, I guess that's a good point. Mine isn't too interesting, to warn you. Anyway, I sent a poem I wrote to someone, but I'm 90% sure that I didn't sign my name on it." Chat laughed. Ladybug blushed and puffed out her cheeks.

"My lady, how could you forget to sign your name?" Chat asked her.

"I was talking to my friend when I wrote it. She talked about how ladybugs bring good luck in, and I quote, 'the love department.' And that's not even the first time that's happened either. What about you? With all the flirting you do, you must have gotten some cards." She smirked.

"More than you would think." Chat muttered under his breath, although Ladybug still caught it. "Actually, my story is similar to yours. Except I was the one that received an unsigned card. It actually seemed to answer a poem I wrote." Ladybug's eyes widened.

"O-oh really? What a coincidence..." Chat smiled at her.

"Seem that way. The streets look clear tonight and as much as I hate to say good-bye, I have some business to attend to. Have a good night, my lady." Ladybug smiled.

"Have a nice night, Chat." And with that they were off home.

_________________________________________

Marinette was confused and slightly panicked.

On Valentine's Day, Chat got an unsigned card. She has sent an unsigned card to Adrien.

It was definitely a coincidence, right?

But, then if Marinette knew herself, she knows that she's the only one who would forget to sign a card they wrote to their long time crush. But if that was the only unsigned card, aside for all the anonymous ones of course, that would mean that Chat was Adrien.

Chat was Adrien...

Marinette blushed at the thought. That would mean that Adrien liked her. At least as Ladybug. And that would also mean that she...kissed...him.

Okay, she couldn't jump to conclusion, it could just be a coincidence! Right now, Marinette had no proof that Adrien was Chat.

And she wanted to keep their identities a secret anyways. Well, she did. Now, she wasn't so sure.

After that kiss, Marinette wasn't exactly sure what she thought of her partner. She had felt something in that kiss, even thought it was only to save him. Her feeling for him were changing without her control. She still like Adrien, but then there was Chat...

But if they were the same person...

Ugh! This was all to complicated for Marinette. She got ready for bed and went to sleep as best she could with all her racing thoughts.

Oh crap, she was going to see Adrien at school tomorrow. How was she going to talk to him if she thought he was Chat Noir?

And how would she talk to Chat if he was Adrien? Oh gosh...

Add that to the list of racing thoughts.

_________________________________________

Marinette and Adrien were acting very weird, Alya and Nino noticed.

For one thing, Adrien couldn't take his eyes off Mari. He seemed to be really interested in her every since Rose was akumatized. And Alya and Nino couldn't figure out why.

Alya hoped it was because he had fallen for Marinette.

Heh, if only she knew how right she was.

As for Marinette, she seemed to be avoiding him. Not even glancing at him when his back was turned like she normally would. The only thing that hadn't changed was that she blushed whenever he smiled he her when she did look at him.

Alya had no idea what happened and, with Nino, wanted to find out what happened between them.

Marinette wasn't going to enjoy this.

_________________________________________

"So, what's going on?" Alya asked Marinette during lunch. She blushed.

"What?! N-Nothings going on. Everything's fine, you know, just being normal Marinette." She said to Alya.

Alya wasn't buying it, unfortunately for her.

"Oh really? You've been avoiding Adrien more than usual today. Did something happen between you two?" Alya smirked. Marinette blushed again.

"Nope! I'm just worried after overhearing him talking about that l-love letter. I mean, how am I supposed to face him if he asks me about it?" Thankfully, Alya bought this.

"Oh, so that's what you're worried about. Just don't deny it, tell him you're the one who sent it."

"But what if he likes someone else?"

"Don't worry, Mari. You are amazing and I'm sure Adrien knows by now. He was staring at you all day." Marinette didn't think her face could get any redder at this point.

"W-Was he?" Alya nodded.

"Yep! He's totally fallen for you!"

_________________________________________

Meanwhile, Nino and Adrien were having a similar conversation.

"So, dude, what's up with you?"

"What do you mean?" Nino laughed.

"Don't play dumb dude, Me and Alya saw you staring at Marinette today in class. Have you finally fallen for her?" Adrien blushed.

"What do you mean finally?" Nino smirked. Similar to Alya for some reason.

"Bro, Mari's had a crush on you for a long time. How have you not noticed it?" Adrien blushed a deeper red.

"N-No, I'm sure that's not the case. Sh-She doesn't like me that way. I mean, remember how we first met? I don't think she likes me a whole lot. And especially not in that way." Nino gave him a reassuring smile.

"Adrien, I know that Marinette doesn't think of you like that. She likes you, dude. I mean, didn't you see the way she was blushing when she caught you smiling at her. A lot like yours now."

Adrien blushed some more before hitting a laughing Nino in the arm.

Chapter 1: Who is Ladybug

_________________________________________

Wait, if I threw out my poem in the classroom, how did Ladybug get it?' Adrien thought as he looked at the heart-shaped card he thought was from Ladybug. His eyes widened in realization. 'Ladybug must go my school and be in my class!'

"Plagg, do you think that Ladybug is in my class?" Adrien asked has cat-like Kwami.

"I dunno. She could be, how else did she get your sappy poem to answer?" Adrien's eyes filled with hope, maybe he knew her in real life. Maybe she knew him as Adrien too. His thoughts were interrupted by his Kwami.

"Whatever, you can find out when you go to school tomorrow. Just don't freak out and confess your undying love to her, if you find out." Adrien scoffed.

"Like I'm stupid enough to do that if I suspect someone. Besides, Ladybug wants to keep her identity a secret, I should respect her decision to keep our identities to ourselves." Plagg rolled his eyes.

"Gosh, make up your mind. One minute your asking if Ladybug might go to your school, then the next you want to keep her identity a secret. Just pick something to act on!" Adrien scowled at the glaring Kwami. Right now he wasn't being very supportive. He decided to tell him so.

"Plagg, please. This is my chance, don't be so moody and unsupportive." The small cat-like Kwami defiantly flew to the desk area and sat there, munching on his cheese. Adrien moved closer and sat on his couch.

"Plagg, you've got to help me list all the people in my class, and the ones who've been akumatized." Plagg opened one eye, acting very sassy.

"Well, maybe I can help you if I get something in return." Adrien rolled his eyes, but couldn't contain the smile that broke out on his face.

"So, if I give you cheese you'll help me?!"

"Just how much cheese are we talking about here?" Adrien hopped up happy.

"As much as you can eat!" Plagg smiled.

"Alright here's what I know." Plagg and Adrien listed all girls in Adrien's class who'd been akumatized. That left...

Rose and

Marinette

Oh what a time they spent on this list.

"Wow, you are left with so many options. How ever will you find your lost lover?" Plagg said dramatically. (And sarcastically)

"Thanks Plagg. Ladybug has got to be out there and I can't wait to find her."

"Your such a lovesick fool."

"PLAGG YOU SUCK!" Adrien's father's assistant heard this and was confused.

"Um, Master Agreste, are you okay in there?" Adrien jumped.

"Uh, yeah! I'm good! Just, uh, talking to myself." Natalie was skeptical, but left the boy alone anyway.

The next day, Marinette walked into school, tired. Alya noticed this.

"Hey, you okay, Mari? You seem tired." Marinette smiled at her friend's concern.

"Yeah, I'm okay, I was just up for a while last night. Thanks for worrying." Alya smiled.

"No problem! What are friends for? Anyway, are you planning on telling Adrien who sent him the unsigned heart-shaped card?" Marinette blushed.

"I-I um, y-yes? No? Maybe? I don't know." Alya giggled. Marinette most likely didn't sign her card, they had concluded the day before. Marinette was upset, to say the least. She finally gathers the courage to tell her crush how she feels and she forgets to sign the letter. Imagine how that would feel if you couldn't say a sentence to the guy in person. That card was basically her one chance to tell Adrien how she felt and she forgot to sign it.

Why couldn't she have the same good luck Ladybug had as Marinette?

"Well, I mean, what are the chances that he read mine? He probably gets hundreds of valentines from girls all over the city." Alya nodded.

"Yeah, I guess your right. But he asks about it, I'm telling him you sent it. Or, better yet, you could tell him yourself." Marinette rolled her eyes.

The two girls headed inside their school and took their seats in the first period classroom. Nino and Adrien came in a minute later. Nino greeted them.

"What's up guys?" Nino asked them as he and Adrien took their seats. Adrien said nothing, as he seemed to be deep in thought.

"We're good." Alya answered for both her and Marinette. " What's up with Adrien?" Alya asked. Nino shrugged.

"No idea. He's been like this ever since he got here this morning. I have no idea why, though." Alya and Marinette nodded. Alya bended over the desk and clapped her hand near Adrien's ear. Marinette and Nino jumped. Adrien did too.

"Yo, Agreste, you wanna tell us what clouds your mind this fine morning? So much that you can't pay attention to the outside world?" Alya asked him. Adrien gave a nervous laugh.

"Sorry guys. I, uh, just came closer to figuring something out." Adrien made sure not to tell them that he was close to figuring Ladybug's identity, since Alya would ask him about it. He would rather figure it out himself.

Besides, how would he explain why he was trying to figure out Ladybug's identity.

Actually, that isn't the only reason. Marinette was on the list of people who could be Ladybug, and if she is Ladybug, she would be mad at him. Probably. Maybe. Actually, she might not be all that mad at him.

Wait, why did he want to keep this a secrete again?

"Oh, that's cool. Why didn't you just tell me, bro?"

"Sorry Nino. I'll be sure to tell you next time." The bell rang then, and the teacher started class.

Classes were pretty boring like usual. Nothing really happened. No akuma attacks, no Chloe drama(For once. This was actually really unusual), no nothing. After school, things got interesting.

Rose was akumatized.

"Pound it!" Ladybug and Chat Noir shared a fist bump. Ladybug's Miraculous began beeping shortly afterwards, resulting in her leaving Chat with his thoughts. Now it was clear to him.

Marinette was Ladybug.

Wow, Adrien never would've thought.

Well, actually, that not as true as he thought. Marinette and Ladybug were a lot in a few different ways. If he thought about it, Adrien would have known it was her sooner if he had paid more attention to the shy girl. Marinette, while she was super shy, let the more Ladybug-like side of her out sometimes. For example, when she was running against Chloe for class president. She convinced everyone to stand up for what they wanted, and not to be bribe by Chloe. Had reminded Adrien of Ladybug that time.

Man he was a dummy, huh?

Chat Noir smiled, thinking about it before he went out of sight to transform back to Adrien. Maybe he could get to know Marinette better as Adrien.

Oh, that wouldn't work. She could barely say two words to him. As Adrien, anyway. Chat Noir, well, he was a different story. Marinette seemed like a completely different person. A lot like...

Lady...bug.

Uhg! Adrien really was a dummy!
