There’s a lipstick stain on Adrien’s face, dusting the apple of his cheek, from her quick and quiet good morning on the rooftop before dashing off to school.
His skin had flushed a deep rosy red the moment her lips touched it, and with wide eyes and dazed smile, his fingers pressed over the mark she’d left. With a smile, she kissed Chat Noir again, this time on his lips, before flicking her fingers in a short, passable wave goodbye and took off for school.
When she arrives in class, there’s Adrien, sitting in the same seat as always, with a stupid smile on his face to complete that lovesick expression, with the Berry-Bomb! lipstick mark on his cheek.
She pauses in the doorway. “Marinette?” Adrien asks when he catches sight of her. “Are you alright?”
Marinette tries to nod.
She ends up screaming instead.
