“Hey, the powers back!” I heard Adriana’s muffled voice say downstairs as I drifted in and out the next morning. That made me snap my eyes open and look at the sleeping drummer next to me. He showed no signs of waking up any time soon but I knew it was only moments before- “Hey, where are Vin and Chole?” -that.

“Shit. Vinny. Wake up.” I hissed, shaking his shoulder. He blearily opened his eyes and looked up at me.

“You look beautiful in the mornings.” He murmured, reaching up and cupping my cheek. I could feel the blush rising to my skin and grabbed the pillow to shove over his face.

“Shut up!” I grumbled, climbing out of the bed and scrambling to find my clothes.

“I wonder if they are upstairs. I’ll go find them.” Kyle said. I barely managed to pull on my shirt and dive back into the bed, hiding my red face under the covers, when he opened the door. “Good morning you two.” I didn’t have to lift my head to hear the smirk in his voice.

“She’s- erm… still asleep.” Vinny mumbled. I silently thanked him and stayed still so I didn’t give myself away. I could not stand the embarrassment of facing him right now. He knew what we did and I knew we were probably going to get an ear full later.

“Well wake her up then. Mums making breakfast. Hurry up.” I heard the door click shut and finally emerged from my cocoon to look up at him. His messy red locks hung in his face, some what hiding the soft smile he was giving me.

“Good morning baby.” He whispered when we were alone.

“Was last night real?” I asked.

“Well if you mean did we fight and then have steamy make-up sex before actually getting together then yes it was.” He snickered, leaning forward to kiss me. I kissed back for a moment before pulling back.

“Vin, we have to get up.” I was still conflicted about if this was actually happening. I half expected him to laugh in my face at any moment and tell me I was a fool. He tugged me closer and buried his face into my neck, placing gentle kisses along my collar bone.

“Just a few more minutes cuddling my girlfriend please?” He begged all sweetly. I loved the way girlfriend rolled off his tongue with ease and it made butterflies burst to life in my stomach knowing that it was me he was referring to.

“Fine, only a few though. We can’t keep your mum waiting forever.” I rolled around and grabbed my phone to see that it was 8:30 and I had a few texts waiting on me.

H: Merry Christmas Bestie. I miss you and I’m sorry I’m not there to be with you today but Vinny assured me that he would make it just as magical. I will make it up to you when I’m back in town. I promise.

R: Happy Holidays brat. I actually feel bad about stealing Heather away from you. I didn’t know how much it meant to you for her to be there. I promise I’ll make it up to you when we get back.

I rolled my eyes at Rickys text but with how weird things had been lately I wasn’t just going to dismiss it. I went back to Heathers text and opened it to respond.

N: Merry Christmas Heather. Vinny has been incredible (surprisingly) thanks for helping him with my gift. It was adorable. I miss you too. We are so going on a girls date and catching up when you get back. I love you.

Once I responded to her I went back to Ricks text and read it a few more times before taking a deep breath and typing a response.

N: Yeah, well if you stopped being a dick for two seconds and actually listened to our conversations maybe you would know. I still hate you.

I hit send and immediately regreted it. He was trying to be nice and here I was being the problem this time. If he was going to make an effort to be friends then I should too.

N: I’m sorry. A lot has happened this holiday break. I’m a bit defensive. I’m willing to try to make nice for Heather but that’s it. Deal?

R: Wow, tbh I didn’t expect you to respond. But yeah, I deserved that. Its ok. I did have one request though. I-

The text cut off and I watched as the typing bubble appeared and disappeared at the bottom of the screen for 3 minutes before they stopped. Finally, the rest of the message came through.

R: I want to propose to Heather, and I wanted to know if you would go ring shopping with me. I want her best friend to help me pick out the perfect ring.

My jaw dropped and I spun around in Vinnys arms. He whined at the sudden movement and pulled me tighter against him to restrict my movements.

“Did you know Rick wanted to propose to Heather?” I asked in shock. He opened his eyes only a slit to glance at my screen and closed them again.

“He mentioned that he was thinking about it but I didn’t know he had decided.” He shrugged. I wacked his chest and huffed in annoyance.

“You should have told me!” I glanced back at my phone and groaned.

N: I’ll have to go with you or you are going to pick out some ungodly flashy ring and she’s going to hate it. You better make her proposal magical or I’ll never forgive you

R: Thank you so much.

N: Whatever asshole. Don’t make me regret it.

“How nice of you. Maybe you two will come out of this as friends.” Vinny teased me. I looked up to see he had been reading my texts and rolled my eyes, smacking him again.

“Unlikely. He’s a dick. But I love Heather and she loves him so I have to make sure he doesn’t fuck it up.” I pressed a kiss to his lips to halt his impending snark and sat up, finding the rest of my clothes from the night and putting them on.

“Hey, let me look at your arm, Pokie.” I sat down on the edge of the bed and held out my arm. “It’s not blead that much but we should change the bandages just to be safe. You never let me change it last night.”

“We got a bit distracted if you remember.” I giggled.

“Oh and it was a wonderful distraction.” I rolled my eye as he tugged me back down to give me another kiss. I indulged him for a moment before sitting back up and moving out of his reach.

“Shut up and get ready. They are waiting for us.”

“You really like telling me that.” He teased. He stood up and pulled on his sweats from yesterday before leading me out the door and downstairs to the couch. “Sit there and stay.” He murmured, going into the kitchen for something. Adriana was rolling up the air mattresses while Kyle was folding the bed sheets.

“So, you two disappeared last night.” Addie smirked, making me blush.

“The power came on at like 3 am. We went around to make sure there weren’t any issues and fell asleep in his bedroom.” I shrugged.

“Is that all you two did?” Kyle jabbed at me with a grin.

“None of your business nosey.” Vinny snapped, returning to the living room. He had gone and gotten us both drinks from the kitchen. He set them on the coffee table before turning to me. “Ok, let me see you’re arm.” I gave it back to him and he undid the bandage, tossing it in a nearby trash can and grabbing an antiseptic wipe. I let out a whine at the stinging pain but it quickly subsided. “Sorry baby. Almost done.” He wrapped new gauze around my arm and tied it off. “There we go.” With a kiss to the cloth, he let my hand go and dropped his arm across the back of my shoulder.

“Did you sleep well?” Addie asked, wiggling her eyebrows at my drummer boy. He smirked.

“Oh, I slept wonderfully thanks for asking.” He said cooly.

“Really? It was a bit chilly for me. But I guess when you have a body warming your bed it can get pretty steamy.” Kyle looked at Adriana with a grin. There was the teasing I knew was coming and I rolled my eyes, burying my head into Vinny’s shoulder.

“Boys and girls. Stop torturing Vinny and come to the dining room. I’ve made breakfast.” Rosa called.

“Awe come on mum! We’re just having some sibling fun. Ain’t that right little bro?”

“I think I’m the one who had fun. You’re just jealous.” Vinny helped me to my feet and pulled me into the kitchen with a laugh. I giggled and shoved him away playfully before kissing his cheek as we took our seats. I could get use to this.

Walking back to their locker room Bryan Danielson flagged billy down “ billy you gotta hurry up and get to the hospital y/n went in to labor half an hour ago jon & Renee are with her right now” he told them as billy freaked out for a second before quickly getting changed.

“ mmm thank you guys * winces a bit* for being here” y/n said shaking slightly in pain as the couple helped her calm down earlier on while watching the show from home her water broke “ no worries hun just keep breathing alright” Jon replied as Renee nodded in agreement before going to look out for billy. After a while as well a few speeding tickets he made it to the hospital running out of the car he headed inside frantically looking around he found Renee “ where’s y/n? God please tell me she’s okay” he said out of breath.

“ she’s fine but hurry up baby’s almost here already started pushing and she’s terrified keeps asking for you” she replied leading him to y/n’s hospital room.

The Search For Marinette Dupain-Cheng

This is my take on my prompt The Search For Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

You know, I always wondered about Marinette taking care of Akumas while overseas. If she takes too long, she’ll scare her loved ones half to death. Can’t rush too much or else she risks losing her miraculous because of it. Since no one is aware of her identity, she doesn’t have anyone to cover for her.  Friends who are unaware of the truth will cover her for so long before they have to fess up.

In salt fics, the class usually doesn’t care where Marinette is on Gotham trips. Here, they give a shit.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In which Lila messes with some signs and Marinette gets lost when she comes back late (via Kaalki) after dealing with an Akuma attack in France. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The two week school field trip in Tokyo was supposed to be an enjoyable experience. There’s booked reservations at classy restaurants, a fancy hotel with a big pool, shows, and tours throughout Tokyo. Lila is most looking forward to the fashion expo. If she doesn’t do something soon, it looks like she’ll miss out on that too. Marinette been missing for two days and Lila is already sick of it. 

All because she miscalculated in a spur of the moment plan.

“Marinetteeee! Where are you,” shouts a crying Alya. The girl spots a few tourists and shoves a flier in their faces. Nino joins in with his own fliers. “Have you seen my friend Marinette Dupain-Cheng? Cutest French girl you’ve ever seen with a heart of gold. So kind she’d innocently help a stranger, unaware they’re a bad guy.” The tourists each give a half hearted ‘no’ before speed walking away.

“Walk faster Lila! Marinette can be anywhere.”

Lila puts on a concerned mask. “Of course.”

All this time wasted just because she moved some signs. 

She hadn’t meant for Marinette to go missing. Only to buy some time so she can guilt trip Adrien to be her partner for the fashion expo. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The day before, the class went to a big nature park. It’s notable for its many trails. The deeper you went into the park, the denser the trees are. They all partnered up and to her dismay she got Nathaniel instead of Adrien. The best thing about the artist is that he gets so into drawing the sights he doesn’t notice when she wanders off. It gave her more time to plot how to switch partners with the least amount of fuss.

During one of her secret plotting sessions, she heard a very loud conversation farther down the trail she’s on. Rose shouts for Marinette to not split up, and Marinette screams back a blatant lie about wanting to see a moose in the Relaxation Trial. Also to not expect her for forty minutes. Total hypocrite this girl is. ‘We can only be friends if you stop lying.’ Sure, and it’s okay for only Marinette to lie. Everyone else who does so is bad. Can’t even tell Rose you honestly want to ditch her.

When Lila noticed the Relaxation Trail sign nearby, an idea formed in her head. She ducked into a bush to hide. When Marinette ran into the trail and her map fell out of her bag Lila burst into action. 

It took a little adjustment to the multiple sign post. It wasn’t too hard as the signs on the pole were already a little loose. Just needed to switch the sign that led back to the meetup with the Reflection Trial sign. According to the map, the Reflection one is a winding trial leading to a dead end. Marinette would be forced to walk all the back as the park employees told them it’s easy to get lost if you go off the trial. Aside from putting some sticks on the map, it was left mostly alone as she wanted her rival to use it to get back to base. She may not have liked Marinette, but she didn’t want anything horrible to happen to her.

By the time it got dark, Marinette still hadn’t gotten back to the meetup point. Forty minutes had already flown by. Lila hadn’t noticed as she was trying to convince Adrien to switch partners and tell everyone it was his idea. If Marinette was here the noisy girl would have interfered. 

Rose’s cry of alarm got the others to find out Marinette was missing. The goodie two shoes wasn’t answering Rose’s calls. A quick check near the Relaxation Trial sign revealed Marinette’s map had flown into a bush.

The field trip went downhill from there. 

The police were called. Afterwards, it’s discovered the cameras in that area were down much to Lila’s relief. Even though she feels a bit responsible, she’s not admitting to anything. Even if she did confess, it’s not like it’ll help the police. Doing so will get her in huge trouble and gain scrutiny in her actions from then on. How will telling what she did help find Marinette? It’d be for nothing.

When it comes down to it, Lila’s self preservation is above Marinette’s well being.

Some good fun will keep her mind from unpleasant things. Too bad no one besides Lila is interested in the scheduled events. This is a vacation, so going to a few events is a must. The class just want to spend time searching for Marinette. The transfer student wouldn’t have minded hanging up missing posters or spreading the word. This class takes it to another level.

Every waking moment is spent looking for Marinette. Breaks become a treasured time. They walk many miles each day. Max posts missing posters in Japanese forums. Alya bothers the police for updates. Adrien even got Chole (who stayed in Paris) to pull some strings to get more attention in the local news.

Because of Marinette’s disappearance, they have to stay in groups of at least three. No exceptions. So if Lila wants to do anything, she needs to convince any group she’s in to go with her.

It’s more challenging than expected.

Day 5

"Hey guys, why don’t we take our break inside the museum we were supposed to go to? It has air conditioning and we can look at some stuff for a bit while we’re sitting down.”

“Sorry Lila, I’m not in the mood to admire art.”

“I agree with Nathaniel. Just doesn’t feel right.”

Day 8

“Let’s go on the sightseeing tour. We can look for Marinette while we’re on it.”

“No thanks.”

“Nah, a taxi is better as we can choose where to drive.”

Day 10

“.....my leg injury is acting up. It’s okay to leave me here. I don’t mind.”

“No way Lila. We’re not leaving you alone on a bench outside Universal Studios. What if we lose you too?”

“.............”

Day 11

Lila has had it with these people. Reservations and events have been canceled. Solemn, awkward moping. Refusal to do anything but looking for Marinette. The only event left is the one she’s been most looking forward to: the fashion expo. Through some maneuvering and sneakiness, no one remembered to cancel the expo tickets.

There’s no way in hell she wants to miss this event: a lecture by Edna Mode herself. There’s rumors circling the fashion industry the famous designer is going to explore a new clothing line. Along with finding a muse for it.

The previous class activities can be let go without much struggle. Not this one, though. This could be the golden ticket to a very prestigious job. Even more than being a Gabriel model.

There’s a chance things might go right this time. The group is filled by pushovers Adrien, Rose, and Juleka. As long as she stays firm, they’ll go along with her plan.

With the directions in mind, Lila manages to slyly maneuver the group to walk outside Tokyo Big Sight. The sight of the Edna Mode banners hanging outside the arena fills her with excitement.

Lila coughs for their attention. “Guys, it’s time for our lunch break. We need the energy to keep this up.”

Rose reluctantly says, “Oh you’re right Lila. Can you pass out our lunches please?” 

“Sure thing.” She reaches into the bag and whoops. There’s conveniently no lunch bags in there. “Oh no guys, there’s only water bottles in here.”

“It’s okay Lila, we can buy some food nearby.” Rose digs out her phone. “Hmm... I think there’s a cheap fast food place nearby.”

“There’s no need to look far. We can just go into the expo. They have to have some food near the entrance.”

There’s silence at her words.

Juleka narrows her eyes. “Why do I feel you just want to go to the expo?”

Lila is surprised Juleka of all people is calling her out. “No, no. It’s just, why walk more when there’s food right here.”

“Lila, do you not care about finding Marinette?,” a sad Rose asks.

“How could you say that? Of course I do! We worked so hard and we deserve a break. Marinette would understand.”

Rose snaps. “Understand? Every minute counts! We might never see Marinette ever again. She could be injured and alone, kidnapped, or worse! If one of us was missing, she wouldn’t give up.”

The fire in Rose’s eyes startles Lila. Never thought she’d see the bubbly girl break her happy persona. 

“No one said anything about giving up. Besides, the police are looking-”

“That doesn’t mean we should sit by and do nothing.” Rose tears up. “It’s my fault Marinette is gone. If I didn’t let her run off on her own, she would still be here.”

Juleka gives a comforting hug to Rose. 

Adrien speaks up. “I know you don’t like Marinette, but I never thought you would sink so low. It’s one thing if you’re not interested in helping. It’s another to actively interfere in something our friends care about.”

“I d-d-o care. We can pick up search after we eat.” It’s not like Lila wanted to prevent them from searching for Marinette. Ms. Bustier has forbidden anyone from being on their own. So she needed someone to be with her in order to do something. 

Lila spent so much time reassuring them, they missed the lecture.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“---Breaking News! A French teenager stopped a missile launch by terrorists. Marinette Dupain-Cheng went missing during her class’ field trip. Miraculously, she disabled their base of operations, rescued a Princess, fought against pirates, escaped on the back of a deer, got their leader to surrender to the authorities-”

“That’s our every day Ladybug.” Alya hugs the TV with tears of joy. “Obviously she’d save the day while missing.” The reporter actually hissed when a stranger tried to tell her to stop hogging the TV. No one attempted removing her after that.

Since Ms. Bustier is currently with the police to bring Marinette back, there’s no one to reign in the partying classmates. Alix somehow convinced the hotel to give them a big complementary celebration cake. 

The only person not celebrating is an angry Lila. Glaring at her phone, the headlines riles her up every time she sees it.

Edna Mode’s First Baby Fashion Line

The Inspiration Behind the New Designs

“My godson is my inspiration-”

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jack-Jack is Edna’s muse. Lol.

To save you a google search, this park mentioned in this fic is made up. It’s based on a bunch nature parks I’ve been to before. Tokyo does have parks and nature trials, though. In case you missed it, an attack happened in the late afternoon and Marinette got back at night (when it got dark) in Japan Standard Time. Keep in mind there is a 8 hour difference between these countries.

With this completed, I can finish chapter two of Dupont’s Worst Nightmare. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marinette is now 7 and this is Mari’s first time back to Paris since the fair.

---

Summer break was always a pain and that was because she spent it with only Jean-Pierre and in her suite in the hotel. Chloe wouldn’t ever leave the hotel because she was the daughter of Style Queen and that meant she had a reputation to maintain. Except that all changes when Marinette comes to Paris.

That girl is the person who knows Chloe, other than a rich stuck-up brat, but that doesn’t mean other kids know that.

“Clo are you in” the little noirette called as she walked in, but she was different the bottom half of her midnight hair was bright purple just like her dad’s and it suited her.

“Mari-bug!” the blonde ran into her friend and hugged her. “That’s new” she said as she flicked her best friend’s hair.

The girl giggled, “yeah dad and Penny let me do it when we started the tour, I like it” the noirette laughed and Chloe smiled.

“it looks good” Chloe smiled; I can’t do that mom would freak. “So, any plans on how to sneak out this time?”

Mari smirked and shoved a backpack at her friend “Of course!”

“You are ridiculous…”

“Utterly ridiculous. I know” she was then pushed into another part of her room by the girl. “Now get dressed”

---

Chloe walked out in a pair of yellow gold leggings, under a dress that fell to her knees it faded from the bottom a silver to white at the top and was splattered with gold. She wore black flats and her hair was in her signature ponytail.

“This isn’t much of a disguise Mari” the blonde stated.

“Well not yet it isn’t” Mari pulled out a silver can with a black cap. “Now hold still” Mari was tugging the blonde’s hair and spraying it and when she finished most of her friend’s hair was black save for a few streaks of her golden hair. “How does it look now” the bluenette smirked, as she watched her friend’s reaction.

“If I add some glasses no one will know!” The blonde was jumping with joy as Mari reached into her bag and pulled out a pair of black glasses with bees along the legs and two golden bees in the corners.

“Like the Queen Bee you are” Mari stated as she looked at her friend. No one will be able to tell this is Style Queen’s daughter. Chloe is now just another regular Parisian kid and Paris is not going to know what hit them.

“What about you Mari” as soon as her friend said that she smiled and walked into the other room. When she walked out Mari was dressed in a pair of dark jeans and a red shirt covered in black spots. On top of it she wore a dark grey cardigan that fell to her knees, and a pair of black and red high tops. She finished by putting her hair in two space buns tucking the purple away and rearranging her bangs to fall from a center part. “Wow, a bee and ladybug are amount to storm Paris” Chole remarked. Oh, how right she was although she didn’t know it.

“Then let’s go Bee”

“Alright Bug” the two girls ran out of the hotel and made their way to the park. For the three days Mari spent in Paris everyone was talking about the chaos that was brought by the ‘Ladybug’ and the ‘Bee’ as they seemed to draw everyone’s attention. In the span of three days the two planted orange tiger lilies that covered every school potted trees, they snuck into an made a cameo in her dad’s interview with Nadia Chamock, and they somehow managed to make every bird in Paris land on the Eiffel Tower. They didn’t even try to do it, they just wanted to feed the pigeons but soon every bird in the city was there. By the end of the week the ladybug and bee were nicknamed the Lilies of Paris.

Summer was too quick to end but Mari didn’t seem to mind. That just meant that she would be returning to Gotham and would be with her brothers. Not to mention that they were in essence training her when she was with them.

---

Most of her time with the boys was mainly spent with Dick. She and Dick would parkour all around the cave and she was a natural at gymnastics. She got the hang of her yo-yo when transformed and that was when they noticed that her strength and stamina was off the charts compared to other children.

She and Tim would mostly work on hand to hand combat but that mostly resulted in Tim on the floor, while Mari stood triumphant.

Bruce specifically tried to keep Mari from Jason, in fear that he would teach Little Mari how to shoot. But his attempts were in vain, to his credit Jason didn’t show her how to shoot a gun but how to disarm and disassemble different gums in a safe way. That was actually pretty good thinking and he should have thought of that.

To Bruce’s astonishment, or he should really say utter horror, little Mari loved Jason’s motorcycle. It got to the point that not even Jagged could argue whenever Jason picked up Mari from school on his bike. Both he and Jagged swear that Jason is going to end up teaching her to ride before either of them teach her to drive. Jason just loves the fact that Mari loves to ride with him, and Bruce doesn’t oppose this as Jason is always more careful whenever she is with him, or around them in general.

Bruce could tell that this little pixie, yes even he admits that he calls her pixie, has changed the entire family. He would however not let her out as the Ladybug holder in Gotham, but she was adamant on changing their suits and crafted them. Hell, he knew she was a wizard with design but even he was shocked at what she could do. What that girl could do with a needle, thread, and Kevlar reinforced fabric and armor plating was amazing.

He would force her to even make some for their daily lives. Dick, Tim, Alfred, and Himself had gotten several suits that were damn impossible to tell what they were made of. Jason got several more casual outfits and many leather jackets. Mari even made herself several outfits, particularly her favorites were legging that she wore with her uniform and when she rode with Jason. It came to the point that Bruce practically forced Mari to only wear reinforced clothes for her protection, thankfully Tikki was on his side and she did, the only exception was her uniform.

---

Mari was never a normal kid and that much was evident, it wasn’t until she and Tikki were talking during a stay at Wane manor when she was 9 that everything came to light. Alfred walked into the room and that was nothing out of the ordinary, but it was Tikki that changed his perception.

Tikki was floating in front of Miss Marinette, looking sad and trying to comfort the child. Alfred immediately went to the girl and noticed what was happening.

“Miss Mari” he tried to get her attention, but she simply stared straight forwards. The family began to come into the room and silence permeated the manor.

That was when she stared at Jason with tears running down her face, “J… Jay… Jay-Jay why are… why are you covered in chaos magic” everyone was staring at the girl quiet as they realized what she was saying. “Why are you covered in magic from the Lazarus Pit?” the collective in the room were shocked no one made a sound. As Alfred looked around, he even saw Tikki shake in what appeared to be a mix of sadness and fright.

“How do you know that name, Mari?” the little god spoke finally breaking the silence.

“I” she looked around seemingly unsure if she should continue “I just heard it, I saw it, it was it was like a ritual”

“Tikki is this normal for a miraculous holder” Bruce asked attempting to take the attention from little Mari.

Tikki simply shook her head “No it isn’t. seeing the Lazarus arura is for a Ladybug, but this knowledge is not normal…” then she simply stared at the girl. “Mari do you think?” the question was left unfinished, but the meaning was not lost on Mari.

Miss Marinette looked shocked and seemed close to tears. Resigned she finally spoke “it might be, it’s the most logical” after this the child went silent.

“What does this incur exactly?” Alfred spoke from kneeling beside Marinette.

The little god seemed to think before finally stating “Her soulmate” that left everyone quiet once again. “Mari knows how to fight, that much you know but what you don’t is that she has never had any type of training. The same goes for several languages she has never studied, she can read a person’s body language without any difficulty, and now this.” the little goddess states. The boys simply stare at her.

Bruce kneeled down and pulled Mari into a hug. And seemed to whisper something into her ear. Her eyes widened in surprise before she began to cry, and she was taken into Bruce’s arms and they walked out. The next thing Alfred knew was that it was loud, and the boys began to rush after Bruce. They finally found him in Mari’s room speaking softly, to softly to overhear, that they had to open the door but were met with an icy glare and left.

Part 1

Summary: you start your plan and b-day steam

Warning: Slight angst, fluff, mention of anxiety, cursing, & more to come

Pairings: Jirou x Momo, Shinso x Denki, Bakugou x y/n, Jirou x y/n (old)

Songs: 1, 2 (Ft. Chole Moriondo) By: Mxmtoon & Verbatim By: Mother Mother

“I only wanna be you...”

3rd person:

Looking straight at the camera you continued with the intro.

“But, instead of playing random songs I’m actually dedicating this song to my crush. This is going to be a mini series of me trying to confess to them, so please stay tuned to watch me embarrass myself.”

Right after you finished the intro Shinso started and slowly did Jirou, finally you starts singing the lyrics.

As the song continued, you spilled more of you feelings into the song. He face popping up in your mine. Envisioning Katsuki standing in front of you while singing this.

As the song got to the end your whole face was lit up with a blush.

1st person:

“Come one guys we scheduled the live to be at 4. It 3:48 and we hadn’t set anything beside the instruments.”

Shin was running around to trying to set up the cameras. Jirou trying to get all the topics together for today’s live stream.

“Katsuki please just come to my dorm. Why, because I said so and if you do we can cuddle afterwards. Deal?...okay deal. Okay see you in 10.”

“Okay guys are you ready” two yes’s are heard and the stream loading page is starting up.

A few minutes later a knock is heard. “Suki”. Pulling the boy over and siting him down in front of the camera.

“Okay just stay still until I say you can move okay...okay”

3rd person:

“Okay so for our live stream today we are going to do something different. Instead of picking one of your song we already have one and we’re going to perform for that dude right here”

Bakugou just stared at you with an annoyed look.

“He birthday is tomorrow and I really want to sing a song he’s been wanting me to do for a while so here it is.”

“Are you really going to do it you alway fucking chicken out...going on how your don’t want to ruin a song I like or some shit” he huffed

“Yeah I am today for you so listen up okay”

You looked over to Jirou and nodded letting her know to start.

“Oh-oh yeah yeah” Bakugou couldn’t believe you actually start to sing the song.

As the song digressed Bakugou found himself smiling slightly to your singing.

He’s been asking your to sing this song for months now, but always getting decline. So now hearing it, he’s glad you waited.

“So now that the song is over I just wanted to say that I (l/n) (y/n) is glad that I meet you a few years back. I remember when I first did.”

You pause and looked over to Bakugou

“You called me a brat because I was one of your parents client and couldn’t decide on what to get from them. But, looking back I’m happy I wasted both of our time that day cause I meet you”

You then walked to a bag on your bag and brought it over to him.

“So besides the song I also got you this”

Inside the bag was a two rings. One had a K and the other had a (_) on it. You then grab the one with the K and put it one and put the other onto Bakugou’s hand.

“See so now we already have something to remind us of each other now” You said while looking away.

“Yeah yeah” He simply looked at you then at Shinso and Jirou. He got up and walked over to the camera and turned the stream off.

“Out now” he said to the other two in the room.

“Yeah we get the message don’t start having a tantrum now...come on Shin let go”

Once they let Bakugou just walked over to you and pulled you close.

“Thank you”

“Don’t mention it and it’s time for our cuddles”

A/n:

So I know it’s been almost two months but let’s just say a bunch of things been hectic in my life so I didn’t have time so I’m sorry about that

So I know it’s not the best but I really didn’t have time to edit this so no hate pls.

Also I wanted to wish a happy birthday to Bakugou Katsuki cause one it’s him and two he shares a birthday with my childhood friends

[karsonisnot]

Alright, so imma try just straight text posting the chapters to my tumblr as well, seeming as it seems to work for other people, however i will leave a copy of the link on here so u guys can show some love there if u like.

https://my.w.tt/KeEgwDgCpbb

MiKayla meets Chloe and Belle for the first time after being seperated from the rest of the world almost all her life. Mikayla all of a sudden finds herself back in the old world when they explain everything that has been going on, with one goal. To take down it all.

*DISCLAIMERS*

This is not about the dream smp member, this is a time where they have grown up and had kids, which is told from their perseptive.

This was written in a time where all these people were alive story wise, so fuck it, they all lived to have kids. No, i will not be explaining where the kids come from, but they are related to their respective parent. Im just too lazy to explain it

And in this, TOMMY AND TUBBO ARE JUST FRIENDS. Stop shipping 16 year olds together, and get your life together.

Chapter one: running and hiding

Everything had been diffrent for awhile. Not that anything about chloe's life was normal to begin with, but alot was changing. Her and her family was forced into hiding a long time ago, before the first retakeover happened before she was even born.

   She had been told what had happened countless times, so many it was almost like she lived it. The manburg second rise to power. When her dad stuck around. That was, till Niki got killed in the crossfire of the war. That was when her dad grabbed his best friend and booked it, and ran so far away they would never be found, and built themselves a world out here

  She was broken from her thoughts by a chicken in her room. She didnt really think much of it till she realized there was a chicken in her room

  "What the fu-"

  "NO, GET BACK HERE"

  Her dad ran full force into the room, bewilidered.

  "THERE YOU ARE" He screamed, throwing himself at the chicken, who just dodgedhis attack.

   She fell backwards out of the way, her blond hair blocking anything that happened, until she threw it back into place and saw her dad. On the floor. With a chicken trying to eat his hair.

   She sat there and watched as her dad fought with the chicken over who owned his hair. Eventually he managed to get up and grab the chicken before it could try and flee again.

  He looked at her, and she couldnt hold back her laughter anymore. His hair was an absoulte mess and he looked like he was in extreame disstress.

  "What's so funny, what, do you wanna wrestle a fuckin chicken?" He said, shoving the chicken in her face, just causing it to go more crazy.

  "NO NO NO, I will not be fighting any chicken, thank you, please put the weapon down." She said, swatting it away.

  "Well maybe next time don't get a chicken in your room."

  "Well maybe next time dont let a chicken loose from the pin with the front door open."

  They both heard a muffled laugh come from the hallway, and saw Belle standing there. Her black hair in way better condition then either of theirs.

  "Well, she is right Tommy." She remarked, trying to look innocent.

  At that, Tommy stormed off mumbling profanities at the chicken, and went outside to put it back in its pin.

   Belle walked in and went to the window ledge, after a couple of seconds, Chloe joined her.

   "How are you this morning?"chloe said after watching her dad dump the chicken in the pin.

  "Eh, im pretty good, espically after watching that. You?"

  "Im pretty okay."

  Belle looked over at her, and saw her looking out into the forest.

  "Your thinking about going out there again, arent you?"

  "I mean, maybe."

   Belle looked at her, with a mix of emotion, mainly concern.

  "Come on man, you know thay area is off limits. We cant go out there."

  "I mean, why not? We've done it before, nothing bad ever happened, I dont understand the pararnioa around a wooded area!" Chloe said, defensively.

   Belle looked out at the scenery. The trees going over the feilds, the lake about a half mile out, not a single other thing in sight. Ever.

  "I mean, we always use to go out there at night" Chole began. "We would go out there with nothing but lanterns and we would run around, just not caring  about anything. We would play by the lake, we would talk about whatever came to mind, we would bring swords put there and practice on trees, we would do anything, and nothing would ever happen."

   Belle sighed. She was right, but they stopped going years ago to keep both their dads sane. They were paranoid about manburg or "worse" finding them. Whatever worse meant.

  "Hey, have you two seen Tommy?" A voice said from behind.

  They both turned around to find Tubbo at the doorway, looking worried.

  "He was suppose to come in after taking care of the chicken."

   He walked up to the window, and they all three started started scanning the area, to find no Tommy, anywhere.

  "Where could he have g-"

   He was cut off short by seeing Tommy run up the hill, clearly in panic.

   Tubbo ran out to the hallway just to meet Tommy in the middle.

  "Get the kids out if here. Now!" Tommy said, scrambling to his gear.

  "What, why, what goin-"

  "I DONT HAVE TIME TO EXPLAIN, THEIR HERE TUBBO, GET THEM OUT, NOW!"

   Tubbo instantly turned around and met the two girls in the hallway.

  "Okay girls, with me, and hurry." He said, alreadly on his way to the back of the house

   They followed as quickly as they could, extreamly concerned and confused. Tubbo, after a little seaching, found a loose floorboard and lifted it up, inside was a backpack.

  "Okay, Chloe, take this, and grab your weapons on the way out the back, and run. Run far away from here."

  "What, why, whats going on?!" Belle said, clearly about to break down.

  "Look, keeping it short, manburg forces found this area. Just keep running North, and when we can, me and Tommy will find you, but for right now, we need to hold our ground, or risk everything in this house."

  "Wait, why not just leave too?!" Chloe said, dumbfounded they even thought of staying.

  "Because, there are things in this house we cant risk them getting, now leave please, before you cant!"

   Chloe grabbed Belle by the arm and started walking the direction of the back door.

  "WAIT!" Belle yelled, forcing chloe to let go.

   Belle ran up to her dad, and hugged him, tears starting to stream.

  "I love you dad." She said, grip tighting.

  "I love you too, honey bee, now go, Ill be there soon."

   She let go and ran back to chloe, and grabbed her sword and bow. Chloe took her axe and took for the back door with Belle.

  "BE GOOD TO HER CHLOE" she heard Tubbo yell before the door fully shut.

   They both took down the hill as fast they could. And ran for the forest. When they were finally there, they stopped for a second to take things in.

   First mistake made that night.

  "WHO'S OVER THERE!" They heard a man say, right before turning and being met with a crossbow

   Chloe grabbed Belle and took off in the opposite direction, not knowing if she was going the right way.

  "GET THEM!"

  Chloe cursed under her breath and looked at Belle, who was now running right next to her. They both knew what to do. They were taught in this circumstance, move in a difficult way.

   Bella all if a sudden split off, and Chloe, hoping they wernt near, grabbed on to a tree and climbed into the leaves.

  Guess sneaking out did pay off in the end.

  Only about two minute later, she saw people move underneath.

  "Where did they go?" A woman said.

  "Dont know, but they cant have gone far." A male voice spoke out.

   Chloe stayed still, trying to not make them look up, because if she did, her khaki colored jeans and red jacket wouldnt blend in the best.

  Chloe looked around and saw something else in the trees. After a few seconds, Belles face appeared through the leaves, making direct eye contact with her. They both did there best to communicate with their eyes, but it wasnt going to work wothout their hands being able to move.

  "What do we do, sir?" The female said, speaking up.

  "Split up, their teens, they cant do anything to us, so split up and find their hiding spot."

  They heard movement happen below them, and after a while of not hearing them, they jumped down.

  Chloe, pointed in a direction, next to asking if they should go that way with her face. Belle proceeded to do neck swipey thingy with her hand and pointed the other direction. Chloe nodded, not wanting to argue silently with her.

  They both went in that direction, weapins in hand, waiting for something to happen. But nothing ever did. And they eventually put away the weapons and started talking

  "Do you know where the fuck we're going?" Chloe asked, clearly done with all of this.

  "Nope, not a clue."

  "Oh great, this is gonna go extreamly well."

   They went on for hours. And hours. And hours. Till eventually they needed to stop. They came upon this rocky cliff and decided to sit there, and rest for a short while.

  "I cant fucking beilive this, i thought we were safe from all of that shit." Chloe said, sitting down next to belle.

  "I really dont know why."

  Belle sat there and thought, letting her mind wonder on what just happened and what could have possibly happened. Their parents could have fended them off, saved the day, and be on their way here right now. But, on the oppsite side, what if they lost. What if they were taken in. Or worse, what if they were de-

  "What's that." Chloe said, breaking her thought trail.

  Clhoe was pointing at the rock, and after an embarrsing amount of seconds, Belle found it. It was

  "A button."

  Chloe got up at the mention of anything clickable, and walked towards it. Belle knew what was about to happen.

  "Uh, maybe dont press the mys-"

  Too late.

  All of a sudden, a part of the wall started opening and Belle got up in response. She turned to see a giant hole being made into a cavern. A lit cavern.

  "Holy shit." Chloe said, stunned.

  "Sho- should we really go in there?" Belle said, clearly scared if whats inside.

  "Oh come on, stop being a pussy. After all, our lives could be ruined, why not risk it"

  Chloe took a soild pace towards the entrace, Belle scrambling to catch up, not wanting to be left behind. When they got inside, the doors shut alot faster then it could open. But before they could even blink, they heard a voice.

"Dad, is that you?"

[theshipking]

My first Story of sorts, multiple parts, DJWifi based, IM READY

Chloe: I bet I can get a boyfriend before you two could!

It was just an ordinary Thursday, up until that point. Where Ms Chloe just made a dare that’ll change everyone’s life.

Marinette: What do we get if we win?

Chloe: Well since you guys won’t win, I’ll let you go on a trip around the world with these boyfriends of yours.

Alya: Ok, and if you win, you make us dress however you like for the next month.

Everyone in that conversation: Deal!

March 14 2020, 11:14am, Lunch

Nino: Did she really?!

Alya just told Nino about the dare.

Alya: Yeah, and I need one now, otherwise it’s game over.

Nino: ...

Nino’s Mind: This is it dude, your one and only chance to ask her out. This is so gonna not go as I planned.

Nino has a crush on Alya, as you can tell. But he doesn’t feel that she likes her back, but it’s now or never.

Nino: I’m sure you’ll find the right guy Alya.

Alya: I think I already found him

Flustered. That’s the only thing that can describe them right now. The whole school had been watching them ever since Nino sat next to Alya, an uncommon occurrence.

Both: I’m sorry I-...

Nino: Alya you have a crush on me don’t you...

Alya: ...maybe...

Alya has now turned into a tomato as Nino wrapped his arm around her.

Nino: ...Is 6pm good for you?

Alya: ...Yeah... that sounds good.

Alya’s Mind: do it do it do it do it do it do it do it

Alya pulls Nino to her and the two new lovebirds share their first kiss. The whole school cheered for them, with Marinette and Adrien Fanboying/Fangirling. The only two who aren’t cheering are Chole and Lie-la. Chloe for obvious reasons, and Lila, as her next Lie was gonna be her dating Nino.

Chloe and Lie-La: THIS IS RIDICULOUS, UTTERLY RIDICULOUS!

Part 2 will be coming soon, and by soon I mean literally now here it is

Part 2:

March 21, 2020, 1pm, Lunch

Marinette: Adrien I-I love you...

Context. It’s been 1 week ever since Alya and Nino have started dating, and it was Mari’s time to shine. Alya has her camera recording, and Nino was silently cheering her friend on. Adrien is now both confused and flustered

Adrien: As a friend, right?

Mari: No... MORE than that.

Adrien: I-I-I don’t what to say except...

Mari had seen this coming, so she braced herself for that all familiar “JuSt A fRiEnD” phrase. What she didn’t expect was a hug. A hug from Adrien.

Adrien: I love you too.

Alya and Nino are cheering, finally their love square dreams have began! Chloe though, she is not happy.

Unsuspecting Chloe: Adrikins I have something speci- WHAT IS THIS?!

Alya and Nino: SHHHHHHH You’re ruining it Chloe!

Chloe: EXACTLY! WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!?!?!

Full attention goes towards the 5, all questioning what’s happening.

Mari: Sooo... when are those flights?

Chloe: I-I-I-I-I

Adrien: Mari I think we broke her.

Smug Chloe: Oh you broke me alright, and I’m not sure about how my Daddy *holds up phone* is gonna react to this! *smirks*

Nino: YO CHLOE NO ONE CARES WHAT YOUR “DADDY” THINKS! GET OVER IT!

Alya Joining In: THEY. ARE. IN. LOVEEEEEE!

Chloe is now defeated. With rage she smacks her gift to Adrien on the floor and walks out.

March 22, 2020, 4pm

Chloes revenge plan was all in action. Ladybug and Chat Noir have all gone fighting an akuma, leaving defenseless and weak Nino and Alya left for punishment. The next part is a go.

Chloe: Alright Sabrina here’s what’s up. I just saw Adrien kiss Marinette a few hours ago and I am filled with rage. So it’s time to hurt Alya. You remember your lines?

Sabrina: I can recite them right now if you want Madamoiselle.

Chloe: No need, just go and do your thing.

Sabrina walks up to Nino and Alya and says that she needs to speak to Nino privately. Doing this leaves Alya alone at the bench. It’s all a success so far, just need to do this part.

Chloe: *walks up to alya* Well Well Well... Ms Ladyblog has fallen in love with a DJ... tell me, you ever know the feeling of physical pain?

Alya: Chloe what you’re gonna do do it now.

Chloe: Your decision not mine.

Chloe swoops in and starts beating up Alya. This was it, she finally is doing it, she’s finally gonna kill the one she hated ever since preschool. But halfway through the beat up, she gets picked up by familiar hands. She turns her head to see Nino and Sabrina both picking her up.

Chloe: SABRINA WHAT ARE YOU DOING GET HIM OFF ME!

Sabrina: No! You’re hurting someone! Why are you hurting someone?!

Chloe: SHE TOOK EVERYTHJING FROM ME EVER SINCE WE WERE BORN! NO WAY IM LETTING HER SLIP BY THAT!!

Nino: OK THATS IT INTO THE WATER YOU GOOO!!!!!

Nino, now by himself when Sabrina ran away from her screaming, throws Chloe into the nearby fountain. After doing so, he runs up to Alya, now unconscious.

Nino: Alya!!! Are you there! Talk to me!

Alya stays silent

Nino: Please don’t go! I don’t want it to happen again! Just do something!

Nino is now full rage as he stomps back up to Chloe, holds her up by the shirt and says in a voice no one else has heard him say.

Nino: If you touch my babe ever again... let’s say your “daddy” won’t be able to solve this situation...

Alya: *has awoken and overhears Nino* N-Nino...

Nino has now dropped Chloe and sprints towards Alya, lifting her up as soon as he got there.

Nino: Oh thank goodness I thought you died!

Nino is now sobbing

Alya: it’s ok it’s ok... I’m here for you...

[gryffindorcls]

Can We Try This Again?

_________________________________________________

Hello, lovely readers!  Thank you for taking the time to read.

I know I have three works in progress right now, but I saw Puppeteer 2...and I couldn’t help myself.  This is how I would have changed “The Scene” everyone is talking about.

So...be aware.  This contains MAJOR SPOILERS for Season 3.

Enjoy!

_________________________________________________

Marinette walked into the room desperately trying to psyche herself up.  She knew that even if he didn’t feel the same way, she at least had to try to tell Adrien how she felt.

“I am super cool.  I am super cool.  I am super cool,” she repeated quietly to herself.

She crossed the threshold and was met by an unmoving Adrien.  Marinette shrieked and flailed her arms.  When Adrien did not react, the tenseness in her muscles disappeared.  She slumped over and sighed.

“It’s fine!  It’s just a statue.  Hmmm...maybe I should use this opportunity to practice.  What’s the harm?” she asked out loud.

Marinette walked up to the figurine and looked it in the eyes.  She smiled and reached out to touch its cheek.  It felt unusually warm, but she continued anyway.  Her lips formed into a sad yet wistful smile, and she took a deep breath.

“Adrien, I...I…I...can’t.”  Her face scrunched in frustration as she slumped into a heap on the floor.

She hung her head low and groaned.  “Tikki!  I can’t do this!  How am I supposed to talk to Adrien if I can’t even talk to a statue?  I don’t understand.  Why is this so hard?  I can fight Akumas and stand up to people like Chole, but I can’t tell the boy I love that I have feelings for him?  I’m hopeless.”

Marinette could feel hot tears rolling down her cheeks.  

“Tikki?  Tikki?  Where are you?”  she opened the clasp, revealing the tiny being cowering at the bottom of her bag.  “Why aren’t you coming out?  What’s wrong?  Are you sick again?”

Marinette sniffled and attempted to wipe the tears away from her face with the back of her hand.  She stood up without taking her eyes off of her Kwami.

“I’m sorry, Marinette,” Tikki whispered, “It’s not what you think.”

She gave the Kwami a confused look.  “I don’t understand.”

“I can’t believe it,” a third voice said, entering the conversation.

Marinette froze.  She really hoped that she was dreaming, and she even pinched herself just to make sure.

“No,” she said quietly, “It can’t be.  I didn’t just say all that in front of him.  Why is this happening?”  

The tears started to reform in the corners of her eyes.  She buried her head in her hands and pressed her palms against her eyes.  An audible sob escaped her lips.  Suddenly, a pair of strong, comforting arms held her close to something warm and breathing.

“Please don’t cry, Marinette,” a worried voice attempted to assuage her, “I’m so sorry.  I thought it would be funny.  I’m a complete idiot.  Ohmygod, how can I fix this?  I don’t even know what to do.”

She spent several minutes leaning into the embrace waiting for the tears to stop.  All the while, a hand on her back rubbed soothing circles.  

”I can't believe it's you,” he whispered. 

Marinette looked up, and her bloodshot eyes met Adrien’s verdant irises.  A new panic settled in her gut--he knew she was Ladybug. 

“Please,” she pleaded, ”You can't tell anyone.  I trust you, but only the person who gave me my Miraculous knows who I am.”

Adrien grinned.  “You mean Master Fu?”

“Yes, and he doesn’t want…” she paused, “Wait...what?”

He brushed a stray tear off of her cheek.  ”I found you, my lady.”

“Kitty?” Marinette questioned breathlessly.

A small black blur flew from behind Adrien’s shoulder.  “Finally!  We can move past the sighs and the pining!  Tikki!  Look!  They figured it out.”

Tikki zoomed into view, rolled her eyes playfully, and smiled brightly.  “I know, Plagg.  Come over here.  Let's give them a few moments to themselves to talk.”

The black Kwami happily obliged.  He zipped over to his other half and nuzzled her with the side of his head.  Tikki grabbed Plagg’s arm and pulled him into Marinette’s purse. 

After the initial shock of seeing Chat Noir’s Kwami phase into her bag, Marinette realized that she was still being held in Adrien’s arms.  To her surprise she did not feel the urge to pull away from him; instead, she leaned further into his embrace.  He responded to her movement by tightening the hug.

“Why did you do that, kitty?” she mumbled into his shirt, “Why did you pretend to be a statue?”

He gently stroked her hair.  “Plagg always makes me feel better by joking around.  I thought you were mad at me, and I wanted to make you laugh.  I had no idea...ugh...I’m so stupid.  I can’t apologize enough.  You probably hate me now.”

“Oh, no, Adrien.  I could never hate you.  I love…” she stopped herself before completing the statement.  Marinette flew out of Adrien’s arms, and she slapped both of her hands over her mouth.

“Please finish what you were going to say because I can promise you that nothing bad will happen.  I have loved you since the day I met you.”

“You love Ladybug.”

“You are Ladybug, and that means that I love Marinette.  I wasn’t joking when I said that I thought you were our everyday Ladybug.  All this means is that the girl I love and my amazing friend from school are the same person.”

“You think I’m amazing?”

“I always have.  You kick butt at video games, bake really well, and are an incredible designer.  You look out for your friends, and you stand up for what is right.  You are smart, helpful, and beautiful.  AND now I know that you also save Paris from Hawkmoth’s Akumas.”

Marinette shook her head and smiled.  “Paris would be doomed if I didn’t have you, Chat Noir.  I need you, minou…even though some of your jokes aren’t the best.”

Adrien’s eyes lit up.  “Only some, Bugaboo?”

She looked down at the ground.  “Well, it’s not that your jokes are bad.  It’s just that...well, you should probably work on your timing.  The statue prank probably would have been funny under different circumstances.  I’ve seen lots of celebrities do it with their wax figures on YouTube.”

“Yeah,” he said sheepishly, scratching the back of his neck, “I’ve seen those, too.  That’s why I thought it would be funny.  Like I said before, I thought you were upset with me, and I was just trying to cheer you up.”

Marinette felt her heart begin to melt.  “I can’t believe you were trying to make me feel better.”

Adrien shook his head.  “I really care about you, Marinette.”

“I’m sorry you thought I was angry at you.  All day I’ve been trying to tell you that I have feelings for you, and I can’t even do that right.”  She threw her hands up in frustration.

He scrunched his face in thought.  “I think we need a do-over.  Can we try this again?”

She clasped her hands in front of her and smiled.  “I would like that.”

Adrien walked closer to her and took her hands in his own.  “Hi, Marinette.  I have to tell you something.  I’m Chat Noir, a famed Parisian superhero who fights Akumas alongside Ladybug.  I’m also hopelessly in love with you.”

Marinette giggled.  “Hello, Adrien.  It’s funny that you’re Chat Noir because I’m Ladybug, your partner who works with you to fight Hawkmoth’s Akumas.  I’m also in love with you...like a lot.  I have been since you gave me your umbrella.”

“Is that why you’ve always been so jumpy around me?” he asked with empathy in his eyes.

“Yes,” she released a long breath, “Being near you always made me anxious.  My crush made talking to you feel like I was climbing Mount Everest.  I didn’t know how to start a conversation with you.”

“What changed?”

“Why would talking to my Chaton make me nervous?  I already know him.  He’s my partner, and I trust him with my life...even though he’s a huge dork.”

“Your Chaton?  I kind of like the sound of that,” he purred, taking a step closer.

She brought her arms up to rest around his neck.  “My flirty kitty.”

The sharp thwack of a cane hitting the ground sounded from the entryway behind them.  They both looked up to see Hawkmoth standing in the doorframe.  Adrien quickly grabbed the umbrella from Aurore’s wax figurine as the purple-clad villain lunged at them.

“It looks like we’re going to have to finish this conversation later,” Adrien noted with a strained voice, “You go first.”

“And then we’ll take care of this mess together...like we always do!”  Marinette ran towards the elevator and transformed.

The duo found defeating the Akuma to be easy work.  Both heroes remained focused during the battle and were eager to get back to their civilian lives.  

After detransforming, Marinette and Adrien rejoined their friends and played with Manon until it was time to leave the museum.  Adrien had his driver drop off Nino, Alya, and Manon at their respective destinations.  The teens then found themselves sitting alone in the backseat of the vehicle.

There was no divider in the car.  Marinette knew she couldn’t say what he wanted without Adrien’s bodyguard overhearing, so she stayed quiet and fixed her eyes on the passing scenery outside the window.  Suddenly, Marinette felt a hand take hers.  She looked up and saw Adrien looking at her with a smirk.

He winked playfully.  “How do you feel about cats?” 

“It depends what kind of cat,” she answered, raising an eyebrow.

“What would you do if one came to visit you tonight?”

“I guess I would feed it.”

Adrien’s eyes widened with excitement.  “Wait...really?”

Marinette squeezed his hand.  “Sure...why not?”

The car pulled up to the Dupain-Cheng Bakery.  Marinette got out of the car and hovered by the door momentarily.

“I’ll see you later, Adrien,” she said cheerfully.

He beamed.  “Yeah...see you later.”

***

Marinette sat on a lounge chair on her balcony.  She sipped hot tea and hugged a blanket tightly around her body.  Even though it was springtime, there was still a slight chill in the evening air.  Next to her sat an untouched plate of cookies.

After a few minutes of waiting, she heard the clink of metal and a soft thud behind her.  “Good evening, kitty.  What brings you here at this hour?”

Chat Noir took a seat in the chair next to her.  “I heard that if I came here, a nice girl would feed me.”

Marinette snorted and held out the plate of cookies.  A stunned Chat took the treats from her hands.

“I thought you were kidding,” he continued, “I wasn’t actually expecting you to feed me.”

“I am the daughter of a baker,” she replied, “My family doesn’t fool around when it comes to food.  Trust me, if you came over for dinner, you would be fed at least three servings.”

“I usually eat alone at home.  Dinner with your family sounds nice.”

“How about tomorrow then?  We usually eat around 6.”

“Really?”

“Yeah.  Alya comes over for dinner all the time.  My parents would be more than happy to have you eat with us.  However, maybe you shouldn't come wearing a leather catsuit.  Remember what happened the last time?”

Chat laughed.  “I agree.  Purr-haps I should even consider a wardrobe change right now.  What do you think, Princess?”

Marinette shrugged.  “Whatever you want to do is fine with me, but I’m sure that Tikki would love to see Plagg.”

In a flash of green light, Chat detransformed and Adrien was left in his stead.  Plagg zipped into Marinette’s room and out of sight.

She looked at her crush sitting next to her and began to feel a creeping blush make its way up her neck.  Marinette covered her face with her hands and groaned.

“I’m sorry,” she groaned, “I’ve just liked you for so long, and I still can’t believe this is happening.  I’ll get over it.  Please just ignore me.”

Adrien got off of his chair and joined Marinette on hers.  He put an arm around her waist and rested his head on her shoulder.

“I never want to stop paying attention to you again.  I’m sorry for not noticing that it was you before.  It’s so obvious now,” he stated plainly.

“It’s not like I did any better.  I’ve turned down the boy that I like on multiple occasions without even realizing it.”

“How about I make you a deal?  I will come to dinner if you agree to go to the movies with me.”

“Are you asking me out on a date?”

“Yes.”

Marinette tapped her chin and pretended to ponder her response.  “I guess that would be okay.”

Adrien wrapped his other arm around her and he released a happy hum.  She snuggled against his chest.

“I just have one question,” she moved away from him and met his eyes, “What are we now?  Like...are you my...my...uhm…my boyfriend?”

He once again pulled her close and nuzzled the top of her head.  “Only if you’ll be my girlfriend.”

Marinette squeaked upon hearing his response.  “I would like that a lot.”

“Princess?” he asked quietly.

“Hmmm?”

“Would it be okay if I kissed you?”

“Yes, Chaton.  Kissing will always be okay.”

Adrien pulled back just enough for his lips to reach hers.  The kiss was cautious and unsure, but at the same time, it was exhilarating.  Electricity coursed through her entire body.  She moved her hand to the back of his head and deepened the kiss.  He returned the gesture by tightening his hold around her waist.

 For that moment, nothing else existed but the two of them.  They were in their own private universe, and neither wanted to leave.  However, the need for air eventually forced them to separate.

“I love you,” Adrien said breathlessly.

“I love you, too, Chaton,” Marinette responded, “I’m so happy that it was you.”

“You are my one and only,” he stated reverently, “and I will always stay by your side, my lady.”

“Even when we go to school tomorrow and face all our friends?”

“Especially then.”

As they moved in for a second kiss, Marinette smiled.  She knew that this was the best possible outcome for today’s events.  Who knows what could have happened if things had worked out differently?  She definitely didn't want to find out.

Angst Day

Ao3

“How are you going to celebrate Hawkmoth’s defeat?”

It was an interesting question. Ladybug looked back at her partner who had chosen to hang back during this particular press conference. The duo was still reeling from the revelation that Hawkmoth was Adrien’s father and, now that she knew Chat’s identity, Ladybug was wondering how well her partner was handling his father’s highly publicized arrest. She knew that she’d be a mess if their roles were reversed, but her partner had simply gone silent, a move that was much more Adrein than Chat Noir. What her partner really needed right now was to let it all out. Ladybug looked back to the reporter waiting for her answer.

“We are going to cry.”

A collective gasp went out from the herd of reporters. Cry? Why would the heroes of Paris cry at the defeat of their nemesis? Even Chat Noir looked confused.

Ladybug resolutely faced the crowd and smiled, “Let me explain,” She paused, “For three years, Hawkmoth has taken away the right that the people of Paris have to feel. For three years, any time we felt angry or sad or frustrated, we also had to feel afraid that Hawkmoth would take advantage of that to use us as a weapon against our own city. This fear was even greater for Chat Noir and I, since if we were akumatized, Hawkmoth would win. We don’t have to be afraid anymore. Hawkmoth is gone and all of Paris is finally free to be sad and angry and feel the full spectrum of human emotion.

“So to answer your question, Chat Noir and I are going to celebrate by feeling all of the emotions that Hawkmoth kept from us for all these years. We are going to curl up on the couch with a tub of ice cream and binge watch chick-flicks in our pajamas. We are going to be sad and angry and cry about the difficulties of life knowing full well that Hawkmoth can’t interrupt our pity party. We are going to feel.”

Ladybug interrupted her rant to look back at her partner who was starting at her with more love and gratitude than she thought possible. He didn’t have to be happy that his father was going to prison, he didn’t have to put on a brave face about what his life was going to be like as the son of a convicted supervillain. He could be angry and sad, and she would be by him every step of the way.

“We want to thank Paris for their support and patience during the past three years. But if you’ll please excuse us, there is a pint of Rocky Road calling our names. Bug Out!”

Marinette curled up next to Adrien on her couch watching the Mayor make an announcement on the news. She was wearing a Chat Noir themed onesie and Adrien was wearing a Ladybug one. She had made them several months ago, along with a carapace one for Alya and a Rena Rouge one for Nino, and today seemed like the right day to wear them. Not to mention they were really comfy.

Mayor Bourgeois stood in front of the microphone in his pajamas, which was a rather odd sight on its own, not to mention that Chole was standing beside him, smiling in a white tank top and bright yellow pajama bottoms. The girl’s hair and makeup were flawless though, so at least something was still normal.

“To celebrate Hawkmoth’s defeat this morning, my family and I are going to follow Ladybug’s example and take the day to feel sad. I invite all Parisians to join our pity party and celebrate that we once again have the right to feel emotion. In fact, in honor of Hawkmoth’s defeat, I am declaring today Annual Angst Day. Every year, we can remember Hawkmoth’s defeat by being grateful for all the negative emotions he victimized while he was active. Have a memorable Angst Day!”

“It looks like you started something Bugaboo.” Adrien stared at Marinette, who responded by snuggling closer to him and changing the channel.

“Worth it”

It was an odd holiday to be sure, but it caught on quickly. Ice cream sales, especially Rocky Road, always increased in preparation for Angst Day. School and work were always cancelled so that people could stay home, and those people that still had work showed up in their pajamas. Ten years to the day after Hawkmoth’s defeat, Adrien and Marinette once again cuddled on their couch, but this time they watched cartoons while three little kids played with a hamster on the carpet in front of them. They were grateful for everything they had, including the right to feel.

Older

Hi so I wrote this fic for myself. Today is the day the fic this is based off of happened ten years ago. It is super angsty and doesn’t really have a conclusion and I just wrote it to make me feel better. All of Marinette’s thoughts are my own and the flashback is mine as well. The class is completely their own reactions no one does this for me but they would totally all do this. So yeah.

This is Marinette’s least favorite day of the year. She wakes up with a feeling of sadness surrounding her and she knows. She gets up and gets ready for school deciding today to wear her comfy black hoodie and her dark washed skinny jeans. Tikki helps her to tie her hair up in a messy bun and she rests on her cheek trying to make her chosen smile. Marinette gives her kwami a small smile knowing trying to assure her she will be ok. She heads downstairs and are greeted by her parents. Who hug her just a little longer than on a normal day.

As she walks to school she prepares for the looks. Knowing Nino he has picked up some chocolate for her like always as Rose will give her a hug. She is met with both of those and a hug from Kim, Mylene, and even Max. Chole walks right past her without an insult which is always the case today. Marinette smiles at all of them assuring them that she is good.

Alya arrives with her usual greeting, “Hey girl did you check my Ladyblog last night?”

She doesn’t know-Marinette thinks to herself, “Sorry no I didn’t.” Marinette says as cheerfully as possible.

Alya doesn’t notice, “Well apparently Ladybug was spotted last night Arc de Triomphe until midnight last night.”

“Huh cool.”

“Yeah isn’t that crazy I wonder what she was doing.”

Marinette shrugs, “Probably just thinking.”

I shouldn’t be older.

“Yeah but what about? Probably some cool super hero stuff.”

The bell rings that signals that it is time to head to class and Marinette rushes off Alya following behind her.  

All the students have arrived at their desks including a running late Adrien who quickly sits.

Ms. Bustier clears her throat, “Okay class I thought today would be a good day to do some meditation at your desks. Everybody close your eyes and go to your happy place.”

All the students comply and go to there happy place. Well all except Marinette, her thoughts go somewhere else.

Five years ago-

“Like how does it actually happen.” A young Chloe says to Sabrina in front of Marinette’s desk, “Just sleeping then all the sudden,” She puts her hands around her throat making a choking sound.

Marinette stares frozen at her. Those jokes are mean, she shouldn’t make jokes like that.

The substitute teacher walks in, “Class before I begin the counselor is here to make an announcement.”

“Thank you,” The counselor clears their throat, “As some of you may have heard last night something tragic took place.”

No- Marinette thinks, it wasn’t bad everything is fine.

The counselor continues, “Eliza from the other primary school passed away in her sleep.”

It’s at that moment it hit Marinette. Her parents told her she could stay home but she swore that she was ok, she didn’t even cry, but now she realises it was just shock.

The counselor continues on but she has no idea what she is saying. The class directs their attention to a crying Rose who says something about crying because of her grandpa, then everyone looks at Marinette, asking her, through her tears she is able to speak,

“She was my friend.”

“Marinette!”

Marinette is pulled out of her memory by concerned faces. She realises that she was crying and runs out the door mumbling something about the bathroom.

She runs into a stall and cries a little louder. She hates this day so much. This is such a stupid day and she hates that it happens every year. She feels Tikki’s warmth pressed against her cheek knowing that she is giving all the luck she can give to prevent an purple butterfly from showing up. She will forever be grateful.

Marinette arrives back in the classroom and sits back down. She goes through the rest of the day with Alya asking questions that she promises to answer on another day.

-------------

It is night time now and Marinette is sitting on her balcony wrapped up in a warm blanket, she hears the thump of boots behind her.

A concerned voice comes from the darkness, “Princess?”

Marinette turns to face him, “Hey Chat what are you doing here?”

“I was in the neighborhood and… are you ok?”

Marinette shrugs.

Chat kneels in front of Marinette, “Princess please tell me what’s wrong.”

Marinette can’t look at him, “I don’t like today.”

Chat is confused, “What is wrong with today? Did something happen?”

Marinette gives a sad laugh, “Kind of. It’s an anniversary of something I do not wish to remember.”

“Anniversary?”

Marinette finally looks at him, “Have you heard of Eliza?”

Chat looks at her quizzically, “Don’t think so.”

Marinette continues, “Well she was my best friend growing up. We use to go camping together and we would cook together and she had this joke that she would pretend to eat me because I live at a bakery.”

Chat smiles, “She sounds amazing.”

Marinette looks away, “Yeah she was.”

Chat’s smile falls, “Was?”

Marinette only nods.

“Princess...”

Marinette ignores him, “She was a year older than me did you know that? She is supposed to be older than me but every year I just get older and older and she doesn’t and it isn’t right.” Tears are falling down Marinette’s face, “She died so young and she is never going to get to do so many things. She will never go to dances or university or have a career or family.”

Chat pulls her off the chair into his arms wrapping them around her. She sobs into his chest letting it all out.

Eventually the crying lessens, “Thank you Chat.”

He smiles, “Anytime.”

I just want everyone to know that she tells Alya at the next sleepover and she is a loving at supportive friend.

Ways To Say I’m Sorry-Chapter 6

Chapter [1][2][3][4][5][you are here]

[AO3]

Chapter Six- I hate that I love you/I love that I hate you

“Here.” Chloe placed the God awful brooch on Sabrina’s desk. “My Great Aunt Millie passed away last week. She left me this in her will. It’s yours now. Get it out of my sight”

“This looks expensive,” Sabrina said. “I can't accept this.”

The diamond and gold flower brooch was obnoxiously large and clunky. It looked like it was straight from a costume jewelry store, but it was worth almost one hundred thousand Euros. She didn't want to ruin any of her finery with that ugly thing. “It's worth a fortune. Try not to get it stolen..”

“Thank you so much Chole. You’re the best.”

“I know.” She flipped her blonde locks over her shoulder. “What are friends for?”

Nathaniel slumped down on his couch, this was a day for the books. Flying, a picnic on the Eiffel Tower, that Kiss. He was in love.

He had to end things with Sabrina before he could tell her. What they were doing was wrong. Chloe was doing much better, there was no reason for Sabrina to interfere. He called her over to tell her to her face. Sabrina, stated she’d get what she needed and left. She’d grown cold over the years. Whatever happen between the two really screwed he up.

A banging on the door startled Nathaniel. It had to be Chloe, she was in such a panic when she ran off. Something had to be wrong.  He opened the door. Chloe’s tear stained eyes were red and swollen. “What happened.”

In a fit of rage, Chloe pounded her fist into his chest. “How could you,” She screamed. “I trusted you. Bastard.”

“You’re hurting me,” Nathaniel seized her hands.

“Good.”

“What’s going on?”

“She kissed you!”

“Who?”

“Sabrina!”

Nathaniel, released her. Chloe proceeded to pound away at his chest. He shouldn’t have let Sabrina come over. He was so desperate to end things, he wasn’t thinking.

“Why did she kiss you?”

“We’re French!”

Chloe stopped hitting him. “Then why was she here?”

Nathaniel paused; it was now or never. He took Chloe’s hand and lead her to the couch. “Chloe, I care for you so much. Believe me, I would never do anything to hurt you. When you came back to Paris, Sabrina approached me and asked if I could help you out. She set up with Marinette job and a place to stay. My job was to get you to the bakery, and keep an eye on you. That’s all. I’m swear I only called her over to end it. I couldn’t stand lying to you anymore.”

Chloe sat expressionless. Her eyes completely blank. “All this time…” she mumbled. “All this time you’ve been helping me, not because you wanted to, but because you had to.”

“It’s not like that--”

“Did she tell you what happened the night I left town? Is that why you took pity on me?”

“I don’t know what happened between you two and I won’t ask. I know it’s hard for you to even say her name. I should have told you sooner.”

“I should go,” Chloe stood up.

“No please. I love you. I’m so sorry.”

Chloe paused. “I love you too. And I hate that I love you.”

“What?”

“You’ve given me so much. I don’t know if I love you because of you or everything you’ve done for me. I get it now. You’re Sabrina’s replacement. I don’t want to hurt you.”

“I’m not Sabrina. I want to be your boyfriend.”

“Relationships are about give and take. And I keep taking and taking. I don’t want to be that person anymore.”

“Chloe, you are not that person anymore.” He pulled her into a hug. “The fact that you can’t see that, and are still trying to improve proves you’ve changed. And I love you for it.”

“Nathaniel…” She pulled away. “I’m sorry.”  

“Ugh.” Chloe rummaged through a jewelry box filled with cheap costume jewelry. She needed to wash her hands, her skin could not stand touching such cheap accessories. She already felt a rash coming on. She checked the final drawer. Found it. “Thank you Great Aunt Millie.”

“What are you doing?” A voice said from behind.

Shit.

“Sabrina,” Chloe slipped the brooch in her pocket before turning around to face her friend. “I came to tell you I'm leaving the country.”

“What's in your pocket?”

“I have a friend who offered me a place to stay until this blows over. I'll keep in touch I promise. I have a plane to catch.” Chloe tried to push past Sabrina, but she didn't budge. “Sabrina, move.”

“Chloe, what did you put in your pocket?

Chloe’s finger grazed the slight bump in her pocket the brooch. She had two options lie or run and she already did a lot of running today.

“You're being absurd. Get out of my way.” Chloe crossed her arms over her chest, hoping she would back down. Sabrina reached for Chloe’s pocket. “what are you-" Sabrina pulled the brooch out.

“Aunt Millie’s brooch.” She muttered, placing the gaudy piece of finery on the dresser beside her. “You did say it was worth a fortune.”

“I just want to keep my the memory of my Great Aunt Millie alive while-"

“Save it.” She said sharply.

“You never wear it anyway. It's more useful to me now than you.”

“So you were going to steal it?” Sabrina looked livid. Chloe hadn't see her this upset since the Vanisher episode.

“Borrow. As soon as Daddy’s lawyers  get everything straightened out I'll buy you something better.”

“I don't want another gift. You betrayed my trust. You don't care about anybody but yourself.”

“Don't you care about me? My life imploded today.”

“And the first thing you do is steal from your so called “best friend” rather than ask for help?”

“I don't need your help.”

“You just need a hundred thousand Euros and a first class ticket to London.”

“How did you-"

“I know everything that involves you in this city. Call it intense loyalty or whatever, but I am hurt you didn't come to me first.”

“If you knew everything about me you would know I've been pretty preoccupied today.”

“Oh I know, but that's no excuse. You book a ticket out of the country as soon as thing get hard.”

Chloe checked her phone. She needed to get to the Orly Airport soon. Without the brooch she won't have enough money to live comfortably until she could figure out how to get her money back. “I need to leave. I'll call you as soon as I-”

“Don't bother. If you take that brooch, I never want to see you again.”

Chloe’s eyes darted to the brooch and back to her friend. Five years ago, this would have been an easier decision. She was bond by a sense of duty since getting her Miraculous, since becoming Ladybug’s friend. Ladybug wasn’t here. She didn't give a rats ass about Chloe, no one did. She had to look out for herself.

“Goodbye Sabrina.” Chloe picked up the brooch as she pushed passed her former best friend.

Chloe laid in her bed and stared at the ceiling for God knows how long. Pollen buzzed up to her fave to check to see if she was still alive. She didn't want to talk to her, or anybody right now. So many thoughts raced through her head.

Why was Sabrina helping her if she never wanted to see her again? Why bring Nathaniel into this?

“Chloe?” The trap door creaked open.

“Go away Marinette.”

Marionette sighed as she climbed up and shut the door under her. “I wanted to apologize for this afternoon. I was out of line.”

“I'm not upset about that anymore.” She rolled over to face Marinette. “Why did you give me a job and apartment?”

“You needed help.”

I was terrible to you and your family. Why did you say yes to Sabrina?”

Marinette sat beside her on the bed. “So you know.”

“Did she tell you what I did?”

“No.” She shook her head. “But I decided to give you a second chance. I know what ever happened with Sabrina is over, she's giving you a second chance.”

“I stole from her,” Chloe finally said. The action weighed down her heart the second she walked on the plane. “Right before I left Paris I stole an expensive brooch from my late Great Aunt. I gave it to Sabrina a few years ago. I took it right in front of her face. And we ended our friendship there.”

“Did you apologize?”

“Up until now I thought she didn't want anything to do with me.”

“Well, she cared enough to make sure you had what you needed when you returned. Right now, she's probably just giving you space until you're ready to apologize.”

“I don't know how. People say actions speak louder than words. But old Chloe would just buy Sabrina’s forgiveness. I am not that person anymore."

“Then use your words,” Marinette said. “I'm sure that's all she wants in the end. Show her you changed.”

“You sure?”

“You won't know until you try.” Marinette’s phone rang between them. She checked the caller ID. “It's Fu! Hello,” she answered quickly. Marinette listed intently. Her face didn't give away any emotion. “We’re on it.” She hung up. “Wayzz was watching Nooroo and he coughed up another akuma. It's loose.”

“Nathaniel!” Chloe jumped up.

“What about him?”

“I found out about the Sabrina thing and some other stuff. He seemed upset, but not ‘lock me up in a tower so I'll never leave him’ upset.” She dialed his number. It went straight to voicemail. “Shit.”

“Go to him,” Pollen said.

“I'll let the rest of the team know. It might not get to him. There must be someone in Paris more miserable than him.”

“Thanks...I guess.” She turned to her kwami. “Pollen Transform me!”

Golden light showered her body as she transformed into Queen Bee.”

“Good luck.”

Chloe raced to Nathaniel’s apartment. All of his lights were off. Shit. He left. She should have warned him if the possibility of a loose akuma. She was just so hurt she completely forgot. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

She called him again. The phone rang once, twice. “Hello?” He finally answered.

“Nathaniel where are you?”

“Chloe?”

“There's an akuma loose. It's not tied to Hawkmoth so it's unpredictable.” Nathaniel didn't respond. A shriek rang through the phone. “Nathaniel are you okay? Nathaniel!”

“I'm at the Seine,” he whispered. “It's here.”

Shit. Nathaniel's apartment as in the opposite direction. She released her wings and flew as fast as she could. She could hear the commotion as she got closer. She prayed Nathaniel was okay.

From the distance, she could see Nathaniel hiding behind a tree. He was okay for now. She needed to get him as far away from the attack as possible.

“Nathaniel!” she shouted, trying to get his attention. “Nathaniel.”

He glanced in her direction, his eyes wide with terror. “Look out!” He pointed behind her.

Out of the corner of her eye, the akuma appeared behind her. Before she could react, a green ray of light shot from its pen, knocking her out of the sky.

Battle Scars

A/N: FINALLY FEELING BETTER!! YAY! I STARTED THIS BEFORE I LEFT FOR AMERICA AND WROTE LIKE THE LAST HALF TODAY WHEN I FINALLY FELT BETTER! Anyways thank you for your patience and her is Yet another request from a Anon. I do hope I make you proud. :)

Pairings: Lucifer Morningstar x reader

Summary: After being injured on a case, Y/N decides to patch up Lucifer. However she fids more scars than she was in for.

Warnings: Nope

--------------------------------------------------

Ever since you had met Lucifer at your sister, Dr. Linda Martins office, he had immediatly struck you as the reckless type. With beautiful eyes and a troublemaker smile you could tell that he was definitly the type liked to live dangerously. 

Maybe thats why you were so drawn to him

Your sister always told you that you have a weird taste for dangerous men and Mr. Lucifer Morningstar was no exception to this. He was not only handsome and charming, but he also had a fun side. He, like you, craved adventure and new experiences. However, you were less reckless about seeking adventure. Last you recall you never put yourself directly in harms way just to have an aweseome adventure.

That was the only problem that you found in your romantic relationship with Lucifer

Everytime he returned home, he always had new scars on his body from the case of that day. You could always patch him up so It was never nothing to serious. But still, you wished he would be less reckless. 

This night happend to be no exception. Detective Decker came into LUX with yet another case, this one a triple homicide (or as Lucifer affectionatly called it a HOMIEcide because the killer was the three victims best friend.) He kissed you goodbye and left with Chole. You looked at her and gave her the look you two knew all to well:

“Don’t let him do anything Stupid.”

She nodded and walked away, Lucifer following closley behind. You watched the duo walk out of the club as you sent a silent prayer to Lucifers father, asking to keep him safe. You sighed softly and went up to the penthouse floor, gently running you hand across the piano as you went to the bar and poured yourself a shot of vodka.

“Hey is Lucifer out again?” His angel brother, Amenadiel asked as he stood up from the couch.

“Yeah,” you replied. “He and Chole are closing in on a triple homicide case they have been working on for a while.She said they will be back in an hour or so.”

Amenadiel nodded and studied you for a second, his dark eyes looking intently at you as if trying to decipher something out of you. “You’re worried about him, aren’t you?” he asked.

You drank you shot and met his gaze. “Yeah, I always am when he is with Chole. Besides me, She is the only other person that makes him vulnerable so he could easily get hurt around her. And well, Lucifer being Lucifer he has a way of making the wrong people angry.” you paused for a second and sat on the Piano bench. “I just don’t want to see him hurt, Amenadiel.”

He smiled softly and walked over to you, leaning on the Piano and looking at you. “You care about him so much, it amazes me. I have been in exsistance for a very long time, but I don’t think I have ever me a human as good and as kind as you are. Lucifer is one lucky person to have you in his life.” 

“Thank you,” you said, blushing ever so slightly. 

“It’s true.” Amenadiel said. He looked at his watch and picked up his jacket off the couch arm. “I have to go. I told Mazikeen that I would meet her at 7. Have a lovely night, Y/N.”

You inclined your head. “You to, Amenadiel.”He walked out towards the elevator and left, leaving you with a piano and vodka to pass the time until the club opened and until Lucifer came home.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

It was 2 AM and now you were seriously scared. Chole wasn’t picking up and neither was Lucifer. Hell, you had even tried to call detective douche and he told he had no idea as he was trying to reach chole as well. He had been on another case so he hadn’t seen Lucifer and Chole all day. 

You were pacing in the penthouse of LUX as the music from multiple floors below pounded loudly. You were trying to distract yourself fro thinking the worst of thing, telling yourself maybe he was busy or maybe he can’t hear his phone. However none of those thoughts seemed to lull your worry and dread back to sleep, try as they might. You just wanted Lucifer home and okay. You sat down and sent another silent prayer to his father, begging him to let Luci be alright.

And, As if on queue, the devil himself stumbled into the penthouse, one hand clutching his back. You shot up out of La La Land and ran to him. Without a second thought, you wraped on arm around him and with your other hand you slung his arm over your shoulder and helped him to the couch where you sat him down. He let out a small grunt of pain as you did so.

“What the hell happened to being safe?” you asked as you brought put the first aid kit.

“Oh you know, the usual. I went in by myself, told the detective to stay away but of corse she didn’t listen and I got shot in the back.” Lucifer said.

You sighed to youself. “Next time handcuff her to the car or tell her why she needs to stay behind.” You pulled up his dark shirt and tried to get a good looka t the wound. “Take of your shirt please. I need to get a better look at this wound.”

Unsurprisingly, Lucifer obliged. “You know, when I hear that I normally get laid.” he said with a devilish smirk playing at his lips. He looked at you and you sent him a sarcastic smile before pouring rubbing achohole on his wound. He yelled out some untypeable words and that smirk quickly left his face. You turned your attention to his back when something caught your eye.

On his back, between his shoulder blades were two identical scars. They were big and rough looking as if they had been created with a knife. You quickly looked away, feeling as if maybe you were not supposed to see them. You applied an antibiotic and some gauze to the wound before wrapping it so the bandage would hold.

“You’re all set...thankfully the wound wasn’t to deep other wise you would be going to a hospital.” You said, your voice significantly quiter as you tried to refrain from looking at the horendous scars on his back.

Lucifer, surprisingly caught on and noticed your voice change. “ Are you alright?”

You nodded and tried to meet his gaze. “Yeah.” He raised an eyebrow at you and you broke. “No.”

“What is it?”

“Its just...” you said as you gently place you hands on his back, almost directly on his back. “All this time together and you never told me about these scars.” you whispered as you ran a finger over them, tracing the shape ever so delicately. He tensed considerably and moved away quickly.

“Please,” he said softly. “Don’t touch.”

“What are they from Lucifer?” you asked. He looked away and you could tell it was a slightly sensative subject. 

“When I finally made it out of hell, Mazikeen and I found ourselves on a beach. We were completly lost and I’ll admit a little scared. However one thinf was certain. We, or at least I, wanted to leave everything that tied myself to both Heaven and Hell. So I had Mazikeen cut my wings off.”

You gasped slightly. “Didn’t that hurt you?”

“Oh, you can’t imagine the pain.” Lucifer said simply. “However I don’t completly regret it at all. I can’t expect you to fully understand what it feels like to have such a burden and reminder of the life you once had taken off of your shoulders so quickly. It felt and I felt free. Free to do whatever I wanted.”

You took in the infomation that had been presented to you as you moved the first aid equpment out of the way so you could sit more comfortably in Lucifers lap. He began stroking your hair and you could feel yourself slowly unwind.

“What if you wanted to get back to hell? Could you ever go back without your wings?” you asked softly. Lucifer’s hand that been stroking your hair stopped for a second. Then he resumed.

“Well, theoretically yes,” Lucifer said. “But I would never want to. I have everything I have ever wanted up here. Heaven and Hell were never my home. Earth is my home now and I fully intend on staying here with you. Truth be told you are what makes this place so much more special to me. If anything, you are my home.”

Your heart skipped a beat at that statement. Somewhere in your heart you were shocked by this. I mean sure, you knew Lucifer loved you but you had just no idea how much until he said that. One simple phrase that meant so much.

“You are my home.”

You looked up at him, his dark eyes glistening in the dim lights. “I love you Lucifer.”

He smiled at you as he pressed a soft and tender kiss on your forehead. “I love you as well, my dear.”

Please Tell Me I’m Awake Right Now

(Part 2)

Adrien’s brain short-circuited.  His mouth was hanging open, but he couldn’t seem to close it.  All he knew is that he hoped that this was actually happening, and he really needed this to be happening.  

“Come on, Agreste,” he thought to himself, “Say something!  She’s just looking at you waiting for a response!”

He attempted to speak, but nothing other than a strained choking sound emitted from his throat.  Adrien swallowed and tried a second time, but he wound up sounding like a deflating balloon.  He sighed and bowed his head.

Plagg zipped into view and cackled.  “You did it this time, Bug!  I think you broke him!”

Tikki also emerged from hiding.  “Leave them alone, Plagg!”

Marinette pulled her hands away from Adrien’s and looked at her Kwami.  Her bottom lip trembled slightly.

“Tikki, maybe this wasn’t a good idea.  Maybe he’s not ready for this.  We should probably go home.”

“Oh, Marinette,” Tikki sighed, “Are you sure?”

“Adrien,” Marinette began, “I’m so sorry.  I shouldn’t have come over.  Just forget

what I said.  Don’t worry about it.  I’ll be okay.  It’s fine.”

He could see that Marinette did not look “fine”.  She got up from the couch and turned to leave.  As she walked away, she shot him an apologetic look.

Adrien’s brain finally rebooted.

“Wait!” he said a little too loudly.

Marinette stopped in her tracks, turned on her heel, and shot Adrien a hopeful glance.  He could see tears brimming in the corners of her eyes.

“Yes,” her voice was almost a whisper.

“Please tell me I’m awake right now,” he pleaded.

She cocked her head to the side.  “What?”

“Please tell me that I didn’t walk back into this room after two excruciating photo shoots and that absolutely mind-numbing party and pass out on my bed.  Please, please, please tell me that this isn’t all a dream.”

“No, Adrien.  This is really happening, and I’m really here.  I promise.”

“In that case, my lady...Princess...Bugaboo,” with each name he took a step closer to Marinette, “could you do me a favor, and repeat what you just said?”

“Uhm,” she began tentatively, “I love you.”

Adrien released a breath and relief washed over his features.  Marinette met his eyes and bit her bottom lip.

“Oh, thank God!” he said breathlessly.

“Wait..what?” she questioned.

Adrien quickly closed the remaining gap between them.  He pulled her into his arms and nuzzled his cheek on the crown of her head.

“I love you, too, Marinette,” he said reverently, “There are no words that can adequately express how much I love you.  I’m just so happy that you love me, too.  I didn’t think you did.”

Marinette pulled away from him and looked in his eyes.  “Adrien, I’ve loved you since the day we met.  I thought you were just like Chole, but then you showed me kindness even when I was stubborn and unforgiving.  You gave me your umbrella, and you walked away in the rain.  Your selflessness struck my heart, and it has beat for you and only you ever since.”

“All this time?” he asked.

“Yeah,” Marinette looked down, “I would have said something before, but you’ve always said that I was such a ‘great friend’.  I knew you liked Ladybug, but I thought that maybe your feelings changed once you knew it was me.  I tried being a good friend to you these past few weeks, but then I started thinking last night that maybe you did actually like me.  I didn’t sleep, and I’ve been thinking about it all day.  About 30 minutes ago I had this burst of courage, and I had to talk to you right away...but now I’m starting to panic a little bit again, and my heart is beating really fast, and I can’t feel my legs, and it’s getting hot in here…”

Adrien moved to wrap his arms around the flailing girl.  “Shhh,” he soothed, “it’s okay.  It’s just me, and I’m so happy you told me.  Thank you, Marinette.  I love you so much.  You’re so amazing.”

He rubbed circles on her back until he felt her breathing begin to regulate and the tenseness in her muscles melt away.  His heart pounded in his chest as Marinette returned the embrace.

“I’m sorry,” Adrien finally said breaking the silence while keeping Marinette in his arms.

“Why are you sorry?” she asked gently.

“I should have said something sooner.  Falling in love with Marinette was a no brainer when I found out you were Ladybug.  I admired you so much already, and you were always a wonderful friend to me.  When my Princess turned out to be my lady, I only fell harder.  I was afraid to say anything because I always assumed that you liked Luka.  You always told Chat that there was another boy...I’m sorry...I just assumed.”  He hung his head low.

“Well,” Marinette mused, “Luka did confess his love to me, and it was rather flattering.”

“He did?” Adrien took in a sharp breath.  He could feel a small pang of jealousy course through his veins; however, this feeling dissipated when he heard Marinette’s response.

“Yeah, but my heart belonged to someone else.  It was always you, and it will always be you,” she explained, “If anything, I’m sorry for breaking your heart, Chaton.  I may have been a little blinded by you to actually notice...well...you.”

“Actually, if I’m being completely honest, I’m not really that upset with all of this.  You rejecting me because you had a crush on me is probably the best possible way this could have panned out.”

“We’re idiots,” Marinette commented.

“Ah, yes,” Adrien began, “but we are idiots who were in love with each other the whole time.  I mean, here I was thinking that I had no chance with quite literally the most incredible human being I’ve ever met.”

A fiery blush spread up Marinette’s neck and across her face.  She groaned and buried her head in Adrien’s shirt.

Adrien chuckled.  

“How am I supposed to function if she keeps being so adorable,” he thought.

“Marinette?” he asked.

“Marinette’s not here right now,” her words were muffled.

“My lady, was it something I said?”

“You keep saying cute things with your pretty face, and it makes my brain feel like it’s going to explode.”

Adrien laughed harder. “Well, now you know how it feels every time I look at you.”

Marinette pulled her hands away from his sides and covered her blush.  Adrien smiled and removed her hands from her face.  He looked into her eyes.

She bit her lip again, and he suddenly found himself wondering how her lips would feel against his.  He decided it would be nice to actually remember kissing Marinette for a change.

“Would it be okay if I kissed you?” he questioned not breaking eye contact.

“Y-yeah,” she responded, “I would like that very much.”

His hand gently lifted Marinette’s head as she closed her eyes.  Finally, he closed the gap.  It was short but powerful.  The softness of her lips sent electricity coursing through his body.  Smiles spread across both of their faces.

As they pulled away from each other, Adrien felt breathless, “Wow.  So that’s what it’s like.”

“Yeah,” Marinette said quickly, “Do you think we could do that again?”

Adrien’s lips crashed against hers, and she responded with equal vigor.  It was like a thousand fireworks were exploding inside of him at the same time.  However, it ultimately made him feel safe, loved, and warm.

He realized that as long as he was with Marinette, he would never have to feel unloved ever again.  She loved him.  She had chosen him.  She made him feel like the luckiest human on the planet.  

Finally, he wasn’t alone anymore.  He had her, and he never wanted to go back to being by himself.

As much as he wanted it to continue forever, Adrien pulled away from the kiss.  There was something he needed to do.

“Marinette, will you be my girlfriend?” he asked without hesitation.

Her breath hitched.  She looked at him and smiled brightly.  “Yes, I will be your girlfriend.”

He leaned his forehead against hers, barely able to contain his excitement.  Then, in one swift movement, he scooped up Marinette into his arms and carried her across the room.

She squealed excitedly, and he beamed.

“Adrien!” she exclaimed, “What are you doing?”

“Well,” he began, “I am carrying my girlfriend over to the couch so she and I can properly cuddle while we plan our first date.”

“Date?”

“Why, of course, my lady!  I plan on spoiling you and treating you like the princess you are.”

He gently placed her down on the couch.  As he sat he pulled her close and rested his head on top of her own.

“Adrien!” she giggled as she spoke his name.  It was a sound that Adrien never wanted to forget.

“Please don’t take this away from me, Princess.  I have been dreaming of taking you out on dates for a long time.  Please let me love you how you deserve to be loved,” he pleaded while offering Marinette his best kitten eyes.

“You’re too much, kitty, but I guess I’ll let you plan our first date,” she conceded, “Please don’t go too overboard though.”

Adrien shook his head.  “My lady, I have a lifetime to show you how much you mean to me.  I don’t need to do it all at once.  Let me take you out tomorrow.  I have a photo shoot in the morning, but in the afternoon I can be all yours.”

“Sounds good, Chaton,” Marinette yawned.

“Are you feeling sleepy, my love?”

“Mmmmm...maybe…” she mumbled into his shoulder.

“As much as I love you and want you to stay with me forever, I think it may be time to call it a night.  My lady needs to be well rested so I can blow her away tomorrow with my super-effective flirting.”

“You mean your puns?”

“You know my puns are purrrrrfect.  They are art.”

Marinette snorted.  “Whatever you say, kitty.  I’m sure I’ll be blown away with whatever you plan for us to do tomorrow.”

“I’ll be done at noon,” he remarked.

“Just as long as you don’t bother me before 10:00 a.m., we’ll be in good shape.”

“Is that a threat?” he laughed.

“A little,” she retorted, “Your dad’s really going heavy with these photo shoots recently.  I think you need to get to sleep, too.”

“Yeah, he is, but he’s taking advantage of the fact that I don’t have school right now.”

Marinette pushed herself off of the couch.  “Well, I’m sure you have to get up early.  I won’t keep you awake any longer.  I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Adrien stood up and pulled her into his arms again. “I’ll come over when I’m done.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

“Me, too, Princess.”

She gave him one last peck on the lips before transforming and vaulting out the window.

Adrien fell asleep the moment his head hit the pillow.  His dreams were peaceful and sweet, and a smile never left his face.  This may have been the best day of his life, but he was planning to make tomorrow even better.
