I have a theory about the relationship between Nino and Marinette. When I was in school there was this boy I knew the entire time I was there. Not kidding he was in my kindergarten class, the same unit in middle school, some classes in high school including one final semester senior year, and I saw him at college. Anyways we were never friends but we were always there. We saw each other go through all our phases, we each witnessed each other go through a loss, and basically just saw each other grow. Anyways my theory is that is what happened with Nino and Marinette. Like they never talked but they were always there. They can tell other people random facts about the others childhood and even where the other lives and what their moms are like. Of course those two did become friends but I feel like they were easily able to fall into it because they already know so much about the other.
Hi I’m back and sick. This Day is a little shorter than the other’s but it is a little bit angsty. It is also still connected to the other days and they are all in order on my page. A few suggestive things and some cussing but other than that just angst. Some Adrienette and Marichat tonight I hope you enjoy.
Adrien was not sure what to do, Last night after working on a project with Mariette he had a brilliant idea to kiss her. She just ran out the door without saying anything. She probably hates him all over again. He did not know what he was going to say to her in class or if he should just say nothing at all.
When he does arrive to class he sees Marinette sitting at her desk with her head looking down. From what Adrien can see of her face he can tell she did not get a lot of sleep last night. He sits behind her in class and when he walks past her he sees her tense up, almost like she is afraid. If you asked Adrien what he learned in class that day he would not be able to tell you anything except the color of Marinette’s shirt and the way her head would bob up and down as she tries not to fall asleep.
The day finally ends and Adrien is walking to his motorcycle completely over the entire day. What he did not expect though was to see Marinette waiting at his motorcycle. Adrien can feel his heart beat faster as he walked over to her. Before Adrien had a chance to say anything Marinette speaks up, “Why?”
“Marinette I am so sorry. I don’t know what came over me.”
Marinette seems furious, “Do you have any idea how long I waited for you to do that!?!”
“I know I just,” Adrien stops realizing what she just said, “Wait what?”
Marinette signs, “God Adrien I have been in love with you ever since I met you! But as soon as I find someone else I might actually have a chance with you kiss me?”
Adrien has no idea what to say. Marinette was in love with him? Why didn’t she tell him? I mean is her defense he was so in love with Ladybug he would have turned her down. Does he still love Ladybug? He knows that he cares deeply about her and thinks that she is amazing and perfect but just seeing Marinette and kissing her makes him feel a way that he has never felt before.
“Are you going to say anything?” Marinette says irritated.
“Mari.. I’m so sorry I just.. I don’t know what came over me.”
“That is all you have to say?”
Adrien looks down not able to make eye contact with her, “I can’t explain it, I’m sorry.”
Without another word Marinette storms off. Adrien is so furious at himself he threw his helmet on the ground and ran his hands through his hair. He finally got home he slams his bedroom door and throws his bag on his bed completely forgetting that Plagg was in there.
“Hey kid what gives? You woke me from my nap!”
“I’m sorry Plagg I just UGH!” Adrien growns in frustration.
Plagg sighs, What is this about? Is this about you kissing that Marinette girl? What is the big deal you kiss her all the time.”
Adrien is pacing in his room, “No Chat Noir has kissed her. Adrien is just her friend who apparently she use to be in love with!”
Plagg does not know what to say. Though he does not like to show it he really does care about his chosen. Adrien speaks, “Maybe I should go see her tonight, you know as Chat.”
“Adrien I don’t know if that is a good,” but before he can finish his sentence he is being sucked into the ring and Chat Noir is flying through Paris to visit his Princess.
When he gets to Marinette’s window he sees her working out in her room. She was wearing black exercise shorts and a green sports bra her hair was pulled back in a tight ponytail, not helping. Chat just stays at the window watching her workout and after five minutes she notices and jumps up to go let him in.
“Hey Chat,” Mariette smiles but the smile does not quite reach her eyes, “What are you doing here?”
Chat is a bit distracted by her outfit, “I ummm, I had a feeling my Princess was having a bad day so of course I came right over.”
Marinette laughs, “And how could you possibly know I had a bad day?”
Quick make a cat joke, “Cat instincts?” That works.
Marinette rolls her eyes, “Thanks Chat but I’m fine.”
“Are you sure Princess? I’m a great Chat to talk to.”
“I said I’m fine Chat okay? Can you drop it please?” Marinette says sternly. She climbs down the bed past him to grab a sweatshirt.
“Wait Mari,” He jumps off the bed before she can put on her sweatshirt he grabs it from her hands and puts in down, wrapping his hands around her waist, “I just, I care about you.”
Marinette blushes, “I care about you too Chat.”
Chat rested his forehead on hers, enjoying the moment, “I’m such an idiot.”
Marinette pulls back, “What do you mean?”
Chat sighs, “I care so much about you Marinette. I spent years pinning over somebody who only saw me as a friend who I still can’t get out of my heart. I want you Marinette but it’s not fair to you, Not after you liked the other me for years.”
“Wait what?” Marinette asked.
“What?” Chat confused on what he said that made her confused.
“What other you?”
Shit. Chat should not have said that, he should have kept his stupid mouth shut, “I.. I mean uhhh…”
He sees Marinette put it together in her head, “ADRIEN!?!”
Fuck, “Umm no?”
Marinette is furious again, “What the fuck Adrien!”
“Princess please let me explain-”
Marinette throws her arms up in the air, “I don’t want to hear it Adrien!” I have said everything I have to say to you.” Marinette turns away.
Chat grabs her arm, “But I didn’t say what I wanted to say to you.”
“Oh really and what is that?” Marinette snaps.
“I just I, I’m so sorry.”
“You have already said that Adrien.”
“No I,” Chat runs his hands through his hair, “I’m sorry for everything. I’m sorry for not noticing you, I’m sorry for kissing you as Adrien, I’m sorry for leading you on as Chat, I’m sorry I hurt you.”
Marinette is stunned, “Why did you do it Chat?”
Chat sighs, “I wanted to get close to you. You’re so amazing Marinette but you never talked to Adrien and I thought you hated me and I know how nice you are and I just needed you in my life.”
Marinette loosens up a bit, “So why did you kiss me? Both of you?”
“I kissed you as Chat because you are just so cute and amazing I needed to know what it would feel like to kiss you. Then I kissed you as Adrien because after kissing you as Chat I needed to do it again.”
Marinette’s sits down in her desk chair and puts her face in her hands, “I need time to think.”
Chat’s heart breaks, “Of course take your time, if you need me you know where to find me.”
Marinette scofs, “Thanks Adrien, I’ll keep that in mind.”
Then without another word Chat climbs out the window and flies through Paris with tears in his eyes.
