Marinette awoke with a start to find Tikki, her kwami that helps her turn into Ladybug, in front of her face. Marinette took the hint that she was already running late for school. She hurried up and got dressed but she didn't have time to eat breakfast so she just grabbed a apple after saying good-bye to her mom and dad. While she was running to school and just barley made it before the bell rang signaling that class was about to start and she should hurry up. When Marinette was about to walk through the door she saw Adrien also walking to the door and froze in place. Adrien saw Marinette freeze and froze too.
"H-h-hi Adrien," Marinette said sheepishly.
"Hey Marinette, why don't you go in first?"
"T-t-thanks."
After Marinette walked into the classroom she immediately saw her best friend Alya. She called Marinette to sit in their regular seat and, of course, sat down watching Adrien take his seet next to Nino, his best friend. Marinette couldn't help but stare at Adrien while he took notes and occasionally looked at her. Everytime Adiren looked at Marinette her her did a little dance and she felt like she was in heaven. All of the sudden Alya snapped her fingers in front of her face snapping her out of her little bit of heaven.
"Girl I know you like him but now you can't even focus on taking notes dang girl you got iit bad."
Marinette was quick to sush her friend but, unfortunately, not quick enough because Adrien and Nino turned their heads to ask what was going on.
"u-u-um nothing just lost in space t-thats all A-Adrien" Marinette said while hiding the blush forming on her face in her hands.
"Ok if you say so Marinette" Adrien said as he turned back to the board.
"Girl you gotta get your head on straight just talk to him like a normal person and stop stuttering." Alya said as she also kept working on her notes. Marinette decided to finally copy down the notes she missed but stopped because there was screaming outside and the teacher told everyone to get to safety. Of course there was another akuma attack this happened everyday. Marinette hid in the girls locker room to change into Ladybug without anyone seeing.
"Tikki, spots on."
Adrien rushed into the boys bathroom and made sure there was no one in the stalls before transforming into Cat Noir.
"Plagg, claws out."
Cat Noir met up with his Lady, Ladybug, infront of the school and they went off scaling rooftops and soaring through the sky to the akimatized victim. After they defeated Quickster, the akumatized victim, they soared back to the school.
"My Lady, will I ever know who is under that mask?" Cat Noir asked, "because that would be just purr-fect."
"Sorry kitty but you know our identities have to remain a secret ever from each other." Ladybug said while frowning. She grew fond the the cat and started wondering who was under the mask as well, but they both knew the rules.
"Oh well, i'll catch you later Bugaboo." With that he ran out of sight while Ladybug ran back to the locker room and transformed back. After the attack Marinette felt tiredand decided to study in the library and copy down the notes she missed from dozing off. After a while she finished the notes and decided to wander around the library to clear her head of Adrien, who the was thinking about while she copied the notes. She was shaking her head and suddenly ran into someone and pushed them to the ground as she fell hard on top of them.
"I'm soooo sorry i wasn't looking where i was going and..." Marinette trailed off ashe she realized it was Adrien she fell on top of. She immediately scrambled to get up without touching Adrien or else she would blush more than she already was.
"It's fine Prin-i-i-i mean Marinette" Adrien stuttered. Why was he about to call her Princess, he only called Ladybug that.
As Marinette was struggling to get up Adrien just stayed there and realized, did he like Marinette? As he slowly realized that he actually liked Marinette he started to notice how her eyes matched Ladybugs.
