Adrien

"Oh, so it's official then? You're my girlfriend? Oh my gosh, I can't believe this is real! What, um, what do we do now?" I sheepishly ask Marinette.

This might be hard to believe since I'm a model and the biggest flirt ever as a superhero, but I've never had a girlfriend before. So I have no idea what I'm doing right now.

What happens when people become official? Do they just attack eachother in a big hug, do they kiss eachother on the cheeks, do they just stare at eachother all day...WHAT DO THEY DO?

Marinette shrugs. "I guess we hug?" she questions, slowly leaning over to hug me. I nod and do the same

"I can't watch," Plagg suddenly cries out from the corner of the bedroom, interrupting our almost-hug. "You're both such amateurs, it's like I'm living with a complete child!"

My jaw clenches. Is he serious right now? "Wow, are you really saying I'm the childish one in the room right now? If I remember right, you're the one who's too childish to realise you have a major crush on Marinette's kwam-" He flies right in front of my face, waving his tiny hands about to stop me.

"My only crush is Camembert cheese!" he defiantly interjects. I scoff at his lame denial.

"Yeah sure. Is that why I heard you mumbling 'Tikki' in your sleep last night?" His jaw drops at my words and he looks around him in embarrassment.

"Hm, I see you also have bad hearing to add to your endless list of problems because I was actually mumbling 'Taleggio'-one of my favourite cheese types..." I raise an eyebrow. Taleggio? How did he even come up with that on the spot?

"Oh really? So you have sleep super powers where you know what's going on even when you're dreaming?" I retort, enjoying Plagg's embarrassment. It's usually him mocking me, so it's fun to have the tables turned.

"I mean I am a magical being that gives you the ability to transform into a super hero cat, so why not?"

I tilt my head to the side. He's really not going to give in and just accept his humiliation, is he? It's funny how he's lazy with everything apart from defending his honour.

"W-"

"Are you two done?" Marinette suddenly asks from beside me. I turn to her to find her arms folded and a bored look on her face. "Because you're making Tikki blush," she points to the corner of the room at her red kwami.

How can she blush if she's red though?

Never mind.

"Sorry Marinette," I apologise sheepishly. "Instead of just that hug we were about to do before we got rudely interrupted, how about we do something better?"

She looks at me, confused. "What like?"

I grin at her, knowing the best first thing we could do as a couple. "How about a reverses Ladybug and Cat Noir role-play?!" I excitedly suggest, clapping my hands together. Oh my gosh, that would be the best thing ever; seeing m'lady in a cat suit!

Marinette raises her eyebrows. "Role-play? Don't you think that's a bit-"

I can sense her doubt in my suggestion, so before she can say no, I push my bottom lip out and take her hand in mine. "Please?"

An exasperated sigh leaves her lips. "Fine. Let me go get my cat suit..."

I gasp. What am I hearing right now? Marinette has her own cat suit? Is this real? How come she never told me about this?! "You have a cat suit?!"

She nervously laughs as she takes a black outfit from her wardrobe. "Yeah...But hey! You have a Ladybug one too right? Speaking of which, you should probably go home and get it!" she ushers, gesturing for me to leave.

I smile. We have to be the most extra couple in Paris; but I like it that way. "Okay, okay, I'm going. I'll see you in around 10 minutes, yeah? Plagg, claws out!"

"Oh jeez..." he mutters before going into my ring and transforming me.

(10 minutes later)

"I'm back!" I greet, detransforming back into Adrien-well, actually, Ladybug Adrien. It's so awesome dressing up as Ladybug. But you have no idea how difficult it is to resist the urge of shouting 'Miraculous Ladybug!' out every 5 seconds. Such torture.

"Great, so how does this whole role-play thing work?" Marinette turns around, and I notice how adorable she looks in the cat suit straight the way.

Her eyes widen at he same time mine do.

"You look-" we say at the same time.

She blushes, pressing her hands to her cheeks. "You look cute," she giggles.

"Thanks...You look perfect."

"Well I think you both look weird," Plagg interrupts our moment, again.

"Plagg!" Tikki scolds, giving him a glare. I sigh. Why can't Plagg be more like Tikki?

"Anyway, how do these role plays work? I've never actually worn this suit for a role play purrrrpose before-I mean purpose!" she stammers, blushing again.

I grin at her pun slip up. I guess the cat suit really does encourage puns to be made.

"Just try to act like me," I say. With my words, her timid stance changes into that of a challenging one.

"But I'm feline like this is just going to turn into a game where we just imitate each other," she smirks, folding her arms.

I raise an eyebrow, smirking back at her. "Well I don't want to bug you, princess, so this whole role playing thing is completely your choice...Even though wearing that cat suit is probably going to make your choices unlucky..."

"Well, if my choices are so unlucky, then how about I make the safe choice of us chilling out and watching a movie, while staying in character. Because I'm too tired to stand up any longer," she laughs, pulling me to her computer and sitting down.

"I guess that's fine...But can I get a kiss on the cheek since you rejected my idea of a full out role play?" I pout, tapping my cheek. She rolls her eyes.

"I thought the cat was supposed to do the most flirting...But oh well...I'll let it slide just this once," she says, smiling as she leans over to kiss my cheek.

If this is what being in a relationship is like, then I never want to be single again.

A/N:Ahhh was that a bad chapter? I feel like it was :( but i tried right? And when this book is over it's going under major editing construction so if the story sucks right now then it won't for long! 😂

Anyway, this is completely off topic from my book but I noticed there are a few kpop fans that read my book (and I myself am a huge kpop fan) and not too long ago Jonghyun from the kpop group 'Shinee' passed away. I just wanted to share how incredibly heartbreaking I found that news and it's one of the reasons I didn't update when I planned to, because hearing of his death made me lose a lot of motivation. I feel like it would be wrong of me not to mention him in this authors note because it affected me so much.

But anyway, moving on from that topic with some more uplifting news...THIS BOOK HIT 50k😭😭I'm so grateful and happy and it really brought back my motivation to update. Thank you to every single reader who has shown my story love; I want you all to know that I appreciate your support so much❤️I know that my book isn't the best out there since it's my first one, but you all continue to praise me for it anyway and I couldn't be more thankful! 💕

I'm sorry this authors note was so long😅but yeah, again, thank you! And I'll update as soon as I can✨
