"Adrien! Hurry up, it's freezing!"

"It's September, you're fine!"

"You know I get cold easily, so hush." Marinette dragged him inside the coffee shop and ordered for the both of them, protesting when Adrien got his wallet out.

"Nope. My turn, remember?"

"It's been your turn three times in a row. I think you're cheating."

He winked at her. "Do not pass Go. Do not collect two hundred dollars."

The barista smiled when she saw the matching doodles on their wrists. Serving young soulmates was one of her favorite things to do.

When she was done, Adrien took their drinks and sat them down near the door; he knew that Mari liked to make a quick escape in an emergency.

"So."

"So."

A grin passed over Adrien's face. "Nettie, you know how they have all those red teas dedicated to Ladybug?"

"Ugh, especially the ones with the little, uh, bubble ball thingies?" She made a face and shivered. "Yeah, thanks, Paris. Why?"

"I know what they should do for her kitty counterpart."

Mari raised an eyebrow.

"Hot Chat-colate."

"Adrien."

He laughed so loud that the other patrons glanced over at him, resuming their various activities when he was no longer interesting.

"You know, if you found a way to get rid of those awful teas, I could suggest something like that. Especially with the temperature dropping so steadily."

Adrien rolled his eyes. "Most people in here are still wearing short sleeves, you know. You're in long sleeves and a scarf."

"Hey, I get chilled easily, so I can just pull the sleeves down if that happens. As for the scarf…a certain someone can't keep their hands to themselves." She glared at him while he grinned. Everything was far more interesting when he could tease her as Chat Noir as well.

"I think you mean lips, chérie."

"I will walk out of here without you."

"And I will ever pursue you, my lady love."

She couldn't keep the smile from her face. "You're such a dork."

"But I'm your dork. You picked me, remember?"

"No need to be so triumphant about it."

"Marinette, my goodness. I thought you were starting to lose your sense of humor."

She smiled smugly. "I reserve it for special occasions. Speaking of special occasions…" She reached into her purse, pulled out a wrapped box, and slid it across the table.

"What is this?" Adrien untied the bow and carefully worked at the tape to shimmy the box from the wrapping. "I love it." He grinned and held up the box of glitter pens so she could take a picture to send to Alya and Nino. "Thank you."

"You're welcome. I noticed that you haven't been using them lately."

"I guess I use them too much. Someone likes seeing them all over her knees."

"Shut up."

They finished their drinks and walked out together, leaving their cups at the counter.

"As beautiful as autumn is, I really love the spring."

"Did you fall in love with it?"

"You're lucky I like you."

He slung an arm around her waist and pulled her close. "Darn. You see, I kind of have this thing for another beautiful lady. You might know her, her name's Ladyb—"

Marinette interrupted him with a kiss to the cheek. "Quiet, now."

"Come on, nothing more?"

Her eyes flashed that look that he so loved, and she broke free of his grasp and yelled over her shoulder, "Only if you catch me!"

Adrien ran after her and caught up on a bridge. He caught her around the waist, pinning her arms to her sides. He kissed her ear while she shrieked happily and put her down so she could face him. "You look beautiful in coral."

She toyed with her scarf, pleased that she'd dyed it the exact same shade as her skirt. "Yeah, what about yellow?"

"You're the bee's knees."

She leaned forward to whisper in his ear. "What about green?"

He grinned. "The cat's pajamas."

Marinette drew a line down his chest, a smile growing on her own face. "Well, I quite like you in black." She laughed when he turned as red as Ladybug.

He hugged her and hid his face against her neck, knowing she enjoyed the gesture when he had a little stubble.

She swore softly, her own face turning scarlet. "Adrien?"

"Hmm?"

"Wanna transform and go back to my place for some more Hot Chat-colate?"

A/N: Thus concludes Glittery Green with a fluffy Adrinette with implied Marichat and Ladynoir. Gosh, that was fun to write.
