MLB Femslash February 2024
Pairing - Aurore Beauréal/Ondine
I’m more than a bite late to post this, but I wanted to get it out. I do plan on writing more for this event.

As a weather girl, Aurore likes to look at the bright side of things. Well, she tries to.
On the sunny side, Aurore’s swimsuit is super cute and she’s already gotten some compliments for it! Also, Marinette brought free pastries for everyone.
On the cloudy side, however, Aurore has only made some small talk so far. Maybe it’s the noisy and bustling atmosphere of the event, reminding Aurore too much of work. That and she’s getting cold feet at the last possible minute.
Aurore’s weather girl responsibilities often collide with her schooling and her parents realised that their daughter doesn’t have the normal social life that girl her age should have. Sure, Aurore is friends with Marinette but that girl is friends with everyone, aside from Chloé and Sabrina. And she does commercials with Mirelle, sometimes. For those, they have to pretend to be friends and not just friends but "besties".
Since a few students from Collège Françoise Dupont would be competing in the swimming competition, Aurore’s parents said that it would be a great opportunity for her to get to know her schoolmates better.
The other students are either cheering on the contestants or enjoying Marinette’s pastries, minus Alya, who’s interviewing Kim and a pink haired girl. Aurore doesn’t understand the purpose of it. Unless Ladybug is competing, she doubts that the followers of the Ladyblog will be interested in some swimming competition.
“So, are you two going to compete together or separately?” Alya asks.
“Together!” Kim replies enthusiastically. “We work better as a team. Ondine here has really taught me a lot!” He places his arm around the pink haired girl.
From where she’s sitting, Aurore can’t get a clear view of the girl’s face. It’s always good to know who the competition is. Even if there is a 99% percent chance that she’s going to drop out of the race and call her Mom to take her home.
Although, now that Kim mentioned working together as team, it dawns on that Aurore that it would helpful to have a partner for this competition.
Why didn’t she think of that before?
Would it be too late now?
Well, Kim did say that Ondine has helped him out. Maybe Aurore could ask Ondine to give her some tips so that she doesn’t make a complete fool of herself?
After the interview finishes, Aurore builds up the courage to try and ask Ondine.
“Hey, you’re Ondine, right?”
When she actually sees Ondine’s face for the first time, Aurore is thrown completely off guard.
This girl looks like a sunkissed daydream.
She smiles and Aurore thinks that’s she’s actually going to melt.
“Yeah, I am! Why do you ask?” Ondine replies.
Keep it cool Aurore, keep it cool.
She purses her lips.
“It’s about the race,” she begins. “Kim said that you’ve been a big help to him and I was wondering, if you have anytime, that is, if you could give me some pointers?”
Aurore feels like she’s out of breath.
“Of course! If you’d like, I could show you some techniques, too!” Ondine offers.
Aurore flushes sunset-pink. “Yeah, I’d like that,” she admits.
Guess every cloud really does have a sliver lining.
