Felix looked as his supposed date being chatted up by his red headed rival. He didn't like Nathanael. Truth was he didn't very much like anyone but Marinette was the expectation. A beautiful, compassionate, heroic, ideal exception.

"Dupain."

Felix stated not hiding his possessive tone. He knew they weren't boyfriend and girlfriend yet.

"Felix just finished setting the cake and putting on the table cloths."

"That's what the staff is being paid to do."

Felix said. He liked her kind nature but sometimes it just left him confused.

"A helping hand doesn't hurt."

She said as she smiled. She was clueless in the affairs of her heart but she knew how to make a person's day. As Ladybug and as Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

"Where's Adrien?"

She asked just curious but both boys tensed at the mention of his name.

"Outside, waiting for someone."

Felix stated with a smug grin which paired with his blue themed outfit was making him more photogenic from a photographer's stand point,

"Do you know who?"

Marinette asked curious on who Adrien would stand her up for.

"Ladybug."

He said, his grin ever so widening. He knew she was Ladybug. It was obvious. Not only did he steal his brother's first date but also his second.

Nathanael looked at Marinette waiting for her to run to Adrien's side and confess everything. That she indeed loved him but to his surprise she stayed put.

She couldn't bring herself to run to Adrien. Not while two boys yearned for her attention. Adrien liked the girl in the mask anyway. He liked Ladybug. Forget the kiss they shared. They were two polar opposites.

"He said that she was going to show up."

Felix continued. Making Marinette feel absolute guilt. She wanted to apologize to Adrien for failing to cancel their group date with Alya and Nino.

"I somehow doubt she will."

Nathanael mentioned still looking at the guilt redden girl.

"She probably won't. She has Paris to save after all. She doesn't have time for romance."

With those words Marinette crushed her chances with Adrien and it the same breath the hopes of Nathanael and Felix.

"I'm sure she could make room."

Nathanael suggested looking at her with puppy dog eyes.

"She can't be distracted. There could be akumas out there waiting to pounce."
She quickly replied.

"There won't be any akuma attacks."

Felix stated trying to open a window of hope.

"Do you know that for a fact?"
Marinette questioned.

"What if I do?"
He replied.

"The only way for you to be that sure is if you knew Papillon."

Marinette said wanting to discover more information. Alya's reporter instincts were rubbing off on her. For better or worse,

"Or if he is Papillon."

Nathanael pointed out. It made perfect sense for him. Felix rarely showed emotion. He was distance from his family more so then his father. He hated just about everybody but the only flaw in his logic is that he seemed to adore Marinette. Nathanael knew she was Ladybug and that Felix might know to.

Felix could use her compassion against her. Destroy her from inside her comfort zone. Marinette was strong but she wasn't strong enough to deal with such a burden.

"I'm not Papillon. Papillon isn't smart enough to realize who ChatNoir is."

Felix stated laughing at his own joke. He liked the confused look on Marinette's  face.

"You know who ChatNoir is?"

Marinette asked clearly interested in knowing.

"He's on the the guest list."

Felix said giving the smallest amount of clues he could possibly give her. Or in his case 'pawssibly'.
