Author's note: I was inspired by the K-drama, Secret Garden. If you've seen it you'll know what I'm referring to ;) If you haven't seen it I'd highly recommend it. But I digress! Here's my miraculous take on that scene featuring our favorite pairing. Enjoy!

An archer pulls back 0.75 m on a bow which has a stiffness of 200 N/m. The arrow weighs 50 g. What is the velocity of the arrow immediately after release?

Marinette chewed the tip of her pen in frustration. Physics was one of her worst subjects and this one problem had been giving her difficultly for some time. The bell over the café door rang as a couple walked in. Marinette looked up from her homework and watched them as they walked arm in arm up to the counter. Though grateful for the distraction, she couldn't help but feel the slight tinge of jealousy. It was her own fault for coming to study at the café; she knew there was bound to be at least one couple stopping by the shop for a drink or a sweet treat. But she couldn't help but feel a little bit of resentment. If only Adrien and I could do things like that, she thought. Replacing her pen for her cappuccino, she leaned back in her chair and sipped the hot beverage slowly. Too deep into thought, Marinette hadn't noticed the blond-haired boy step into the shop after the couple. Nor had she noticed him see her and smile. And she definitely did not see him walking up to her. But she did notice when the boy stopped in front of her table and said:

"Hello, Marinette." The girl snapped out of her thoughts and nearly fell over backwards. Marinette stared up at Adrien Agreste in disbelief. She set her drink down with shaky hands. He smiled back at her, waiting for her to respond.

"H-hi, Adrien," she managed to squeak.

"Ask him to sit down," came Tikki's voice in her head. How rude of me! Marinette thought, promising to scold herself later.

"Would you like to sit down?" Marinette asked, her cheeks going rosy.

"Oh, yes, thank you," he replied. Marinette shuffled some of her papers around so as to clear space for him. He put his bag on the table and sat down. He looked down at her papers: what looked like that night's physics homework and lots of scratch paper with boatloads of different equations scribbled out.

"Came to work on the homework?" Adrien inquired. Marinette looked down at the papers with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"Umm y-yes," she stuttered. "I felt a change of scenery might help me understand these problems." She put a hand behind her head, eyes still on the homework. Adrien looked back up at her. He had noticed many times before but every time felt like the first time: Marinette was very pretty. He liked her freckles and her smile. And her eyes; he had never seen such beautiful blue eyes. And not only was she pretty, but she was kind and funny and genuine. She always seemed to be nervous around him, but in a sort of quirky way Adrien found it very endearing. He treasured the rare moments when she seemed to get over her anxiety and they could just talk and enjoy one another's company.

"You too?" he asked. Marinette looked back up at him, letting her hand fall back down into her lap. Adrien reached into his bag and pulled out his own homework and scratch paper, grinning. "I can't make sense of these equations sometimes. It's all very frustrating." He leaned on his hand and stared intently at the papers in front of him. Marinette's eyes went wide. Even someone like Adrien who was good at everything struggled with simple high school physics. Just like her. She swallowed some of her anxieties and convinced herself to be brave for once.

"Would you like to work on them together?" she asked. Her voice had gone quiet but Adrien still caught it. He looked up and raised his brows at her. Oh no, she thought. But to her surprise, Adrien smiled again.

"I would like that," he said. Marinette's heart fluttered and she smiled back. The two of them set to work on the pesky homework problems. People went in and out of the café but this time the bell over the door could not take Marinette's attention away from her homework.

Almost hallway through number six, Marinette took another sip of her cappuccino. Adrien looked up at her sudden movement. As she set the cup down, he couldn't help but let out a small laugh. Marinette glanced up at him inquisitively.

"What is it?" she asked. Adrien was trying to contain his giggling but couldn't seem to keep it together. Marinette looked around nervously, brows drawing together.

"What?" she asked again, a little more forcefully. But her speaking only emphasized the line of foam upon her upper lip.

"I'm sorry," Adrien said, his laughter finally contained. He was smiling like crazy. "You've got some foam…" He pointed to his own lip. Marinette's eyes went wide and her cheeks went crimson. As she reached for her napkin, Adrien put his hand over hers to stop it. He had absolutely what made him do it, but he did it. He stood up and leaned in toward her over the table.

"Let me." And it was then that Adrien Agreste put his lips onto those of Marinette Dupain-Cheng. Marinette felt as if her heart would burst. Adrien, too, felt his heart beating wildly in his chest. He had seen this sort of trick in many romances.

But why he chose to pull it on a girl in the middle of studying in a coffee shop, he did not know. Adrien pulled away from Marinette, whose eyes looked as if they would pop out of her head and whose cheeks were a darker red than any rose he had ever seen. He cast his eyes down to her lips, which no longer had a line of foam sitting across the top.

Before either teen could think, say, or do anything, a cry rang out from somewhere nearby. Never had Marinette been so happy for an akuma attack. Both stood up quickly albeit clumsily.

"I-I-I have to-" Adrien spluttered, shoving papers into his bag.

"N-need to go!" Marinette finished, following suit. Without another word, both ran out of the café and into opposite directions.

As Ladybug, Marinette jumped to the top of a small flower shop and looked around for the culprit. She was still very much dazed from Adrien's kiss but there was no time to think about it at the moment.

"What's the situation?" Chat Noir's voice appeared at her side. She side eyed him.

"No puns or flirting? You feeling okay, kitty?" she asked. Adrien, too, was stunned at his actions. He loved Ladybug, not Marinette. Right? But no, he thought. This was not the time.

"Don't worry, my lady. I'm feeling just purr-fect," he replied, giving her a wink. He laughed at her groan as the two of them jumped off to save the day.
