A/N: Here's the Bonus Chapter! I probably won't write anything more for this story after this, but I hope you enjoy this.

Adrien and Marinette had spent the whole evening together after discovering each other's most closely guarded secret. The reveal hadn't hit Adrien as hard; he'd suspected his lady went to his school for quite some time now, ever since they'd fought the Pharaoh. Marinette, on the other hand, was utterly stunned. Even though she and her minou figured it out at the same time, she couldn't help but be in shock for another hour or so. This felt like they were destined to be in some soap opera or a reality television show.

It was literally that dramatic, especially since the superhero duo deemed - after some discussion - that Alya and Nino had also figured out both of their secrets. They had to be more open with their lives to each other but when they talked about it, they couldn't help but be in hysteria. They actually had their best friends to be grateful to for discovering their identities! Without their help, Marinette and Adrien would most likely be stuck in the same loop they'd been in. It was like some strange, twisted love triangle. No wait, not triangle- it was a love square.

Marinette smiled at her partner from across the booth they occupied, loving the time they'd spent together. Now her undying loyalty to Chat and her faithful love to Adrien were combined. It had been hard to think of the two as one and the same, but after she had accomplished the feat, it was worth it. She was able to see both sides of her crush and best friend. Adrien was equally ecstatic and smirked back at his companion. Now his friend, his classmate, was one and the same with his beloved lady. It felt like a dream come true. The exuberant couple shared a plate of pain au chocolat for breakfast in Marinette's family bakery the following school day, reminiscing in their memories from last night.

They'd transformed together for the first time and started patrol, taking the route that they changed weekly so that Hawkmoth would never find it out. The goal of their patrol wasn't really to spot akumas - that was pointless since it was easy to locate them from their civilian forms - it was really to help the police force out with crie fighting. It was also to boost morale in Paris and it was also an apex use to hang out. After the uneventful patrol, they parted ways but Adrien had been the daring cat he was and kissed Marinette. It had stolen her breath away, and even though she knew that he was the flirtatious Chat Noir always by her side as Ladybug, the schoolyard crush on him never went away. Albeit, he'd only kissed her on the cheek - pushing his luck in the process - but it was still magical to them both.

Glancing at the clock, Marinette's blue eyes widened. "Oh no! C'mon kitty- if we want to make it to class on time we have to leave. Now!" She promptly went to grab his wrist and, with strength reminiscent of her superhero persona, pulled him out of the bakery and dragged the model down the street.

Now Marinette and Adrien were sitting in their usual seats, watching Ms. Bustier's lesson intently- as if nothing had happened between them. They'd agreed to not try and confront Alya and Nino until after school, that way they would be able to have a nice long interrogation with the pair - emphasis on long

Soon enough, classes had ended and Marinette and Adrien were the first people out the door. In a blur of black and blonde hair, they sprinted to the doors of the school and waited for their best friends. The two shared a glance before staring at the door again, hidden in plain sight. As if on cue, Alya and Nino were laughing together over something as they pushed the double doors open, descending the stairs. Marinette turns to the green-eyed model beside her, mouthing, "one, two, three!" On three they sprang out from their hiding spot, tackling Alya and Nino from behind.

"Hey!" Came the muffled complaints in unison as the pair tried craning their necks, trying to get a good look at their attackers.

"You two have some explaining to do." Marinette growled out at them in a way that is very much not like Marinette, dragging Alya along as Adrien did the same with Nino.

Alya recognized her best friend's voice immediately, even when it was angry, and managed to choke out a nervous chuckle. "What explaining? We don't know anything, right Nino?"

"R-right." Nino managed to get out despite Adrien's scary chokehold, being pulled along to who-knows-where.

The superhero duo rolled their eyes, sharing another knowing look. "Oh you know something. Perhaps you'd like to share secrets?"

They gulped. "They're onto us." Alya hissed at Nino, giving him a frantic look. What she hadn't noticed was that she'd said it louder than intended.

"Yes, Alya. We are onto you guys." Marinette said dryly, rolling her vivid cerulean eyes as they finally reached their intended destination. The Dupain-Cheng's bakery.

"Now fess up. Was this your plan all along?" Adrien and Marinette demanded, sitting across from Alya and Nino at a booth in the bakery.

"What plan?"

"Don't you dare play innocent with us. We know what you did, what you know."

"Know wh-" Alya stopped mid-sentence at the look Marinette was giving her. "Fine. Yes, we know your secrets and we tried to get you guys to realize it." She says in defeat, looking down. "Please don't be mad."

"We're not mad, in fact I suspect we have you and Nino to be grateful for. We were so seriously oblivious, it was insane! So thank you. Thank you, really. Still- I'm never doubting a determined Alya again." Marinette said, the last sentence added in by Adrien. The four of them shared a relieved laugh, grinning like maniacs. Everything felt better now.

"So, are you two together now or what?" Alya said after a while of chatting, sharing some pastries

"Alya!" Marinette protested, turning as red as her ladybug suit. Even Adrien flushed with embarrassment, but wrapped an arm around Marinette's shoulders sneakily.

"What do you say, my lady? Why not?" Adrien said mischievously, acting more like Chat Noir than ever.

Marinette swatted at his chest, hiding her head on his shoulder. "Stop it! Silly kitty, of course I'll be with you." She adds the last sentence in a whisper, for his ears only. It made him grin brightly and stare at her for a moment.

"Really? You're not teasing me- are you, purr-incess?" He asks her, still smiling and tilting his head cutely.

"Of course chaton, I'm not a jokester like you." Marinette teases, bopping his nose confidently. Even though Alya and Nino knew in their minds that the couple before them were the true Chat Noir and Ladybug, it was still hard for them to see shy, quiet, and usually flustered around Adrien, Marinette acting so confidently and the usually reserved Adrien teaisng her mercilessly. They were even flirting. Flirting!

"Well... we have a... uh... that history project to work on! About the French Revolution! Right, Nino?" Alya asks him pointedly, nudging him.

"What project? I don't- ow! Um yeah! That project!" Nino says in a chortle, Alya interrupting him halfway with a kick to his foot and abruptly stood up to drag him away. The bell tinkled at they walked off, bantering back and forth.

Marinette and Adrien shared an amused glance. "What do you think that was all about?" He asked her.

"Probably them trying to give us some alone time, because I don't remember being assigned a history project." The black haired girl replied, chuckling softly. "Plus, we studied the French Revolution last year."

"Probably." Adrien agreed, leaning into her shoulder. Little did they know that Marinette's parents were standing there, watching them since Alya and Nino left. Sabine was doing a small happy dance as Tom reluctantly handed her a couple of euros, smiling nevertheless.
