***** Chapter 1 *****
He didn't want to know what had made this person become a target for an akuma.
The idea of having to get his hands on the infected dildo was enough. 
Chat Noir almost had it when he was met with a face full of pollen he didn't
even know she had. It was clear she had been saving it as a last resort by the
way she was trying to retreat down to the street of the red light district from
the roof they were on. Well it was certainly effective by the way it halted the
hero. Chat's eyes were burning and he was nearly choking. 
Thankfully, Ladybug was on top of her game tonight and had already put her
lucky charm into motion, ending the fight shortly thereafter.  Ladybug was
thankful her costume included gloves as she released the akuma from the dildo. 
"Bye bye butterfly." She said as the purified butterfly floated away. She used
her cleansing light then turned to her partner, "You alright over there?"
While the pollen in his eyes was gone, Chat still was coughing a little as he
turned to face her. As soon as he locked his eyes on her, he felt like he
needed to touch her. He shook his head to try and clear the feeling.
"I"m feline much better my lady," Chat replied with a grin holding up his fist
for their usual bump. Ladybug groaned, but Chat didn't miss the tiny smile that
appeared on her face. She walked over and completed their bump, unable to leave
him hanging. 
The touch doubled the weird feeling Chat had and a blush crept onto his face as
he realized how suddenly tight his suit felt in the worst possible spot. 
"Shit," he cursed under his breath as he tried to nonchalantly hide his
unexpected hard-on, which is rather difficult in a skin tight suit. He ended up
turning to face away from Ladybug. Thankfully, her miraculous beeped as he
turned, signalling they didn't have much time left.
"Well I better go, I mean wouldn't want to see your identity now would we?" He
commented awkwardly, already beginning to leave. Before Ladybug could say
anything, Chat ran.
 
===============================================================================
 
Adrien paced in his room. He had immediately taken a cold shower when he got
back, though the farther he got from Ladybug the more manageable the feeling
got.  
"What the hell was that!?" He exclaimed, more to himself than to Plagg, who was
sitting on his desk enjoying some Camembert. 
"Not like you haven't had the thought before," Plagg snorted. Adrien blushed
knowing what Plagg was referring to. Sure maybe he had masturbated to Ladybug a
few times, and he wouldn't exactly say no if she wanted to do something like
that with him... 
"But I was in control of that." Adrien retorted. "This just happened! I wasn't
even thinking anything remotely along those lines! On top of that I've been way
closer to her than just a fist bump and it never happened then." Anyone who
followed the Ladyblog could see just how close they've gotten.
Adrien coughed and suddenly froze in his tracks as a thought occurred to him.
That damn pollen! He had no idea what it was, but coming from the sex-crazed
akuma they fought it couldn't be good. 
"But didn't the cleansing light clean that up...?" He mumbled. Plagg didn't
care enough to try and decipher what Adrien had said and shoved the cheese into
his mouth. Adrien groaned and flopped face-down onto his bed. He hoped it would
wear off, whatever it was.
 
===============================================================================
  
Back in her own room, Marinette was trying to process what had just happened.
That had been very out of character for Chat, who would do anything to see who
she really was. Plus, he usually tried to spend as long as possible with her. 
"Do you think something happened to him during that fight, Tikki? But what
about the cleansing light? Shouldn't that have fixed whatever hit him?"
Marinette said, sitting in her desk chair checking the Ladyblog. Alya hadn't
been at that fight, since there were no pictures of it up, which made Marinette
relieved because otherwise she would then have to wonder why her best friend
had been in the red light district. 
"Well, the only times I remember the light not working was if something entered
the person's bloodstream before the effect took place," Tikki said sadly,
remembering those she had lost to poison. Marinette made a note of that
information to be aware of it in the future. 
She reflected on the fight and remembered, "Chat went into a pretty bad
coughing fit from something that lady threw." 
"There's not much we can do Mari," Tikki replied, flying over to her lap. 
Marinette held her kwami and sighed, "I just hope Chat's alright."
"I'm sure he'll be fine, Mari. He's pretty tough." Marinette nodded and
resolved to not let it worry her too much.

Chapter Notes
See the end of the chapter for notes
Adrien sat in his seat chatting idly with Nino while they waited for class to
start. He hadn't felt anything yet since waking up this morning, so he hoped
after what he'd done last night it was cured. He stifled a yawn. When he had
tried to sleep last night, that strange feeling had crept up again when his
thoughts drifted to Ladybug. After that he was unable to get her off his mind,
and had finally just gave in to jerking off when he couldn't ignore it and go
to sleep. It appeased the feeling so he could sleep. 
Marinette was running late, as usual, and ran through the door right as class
was about to begin. As she rushed past Adrien to her seat behind him, his
demeanor visibly shifted. He stiffened and a blush crept onto his face as he
quickly moved his book onto his lap. Nino noticed this change but couldn't say
anything since class was starting, so he simply gave his friend a look of
concern that Adrien failed to even see.
He had no idea why this problem was back even worse than before or why it chose
now to resurface; he hadn't even touched anyone! This hadn't happened with
anyone he greeted this morning, not even when Chloe failed to respect his
personal space again this morning. 
As much as he tried, Adrien failed to listen to anything the teacher was
saying. He kept sneaking looks at Marinette, the last person to enter this
morning. With each look, he just wanted to reach out and touch her more, and
more inappropriately each time too. It finally dawned on him that he needed to
leave. 
"May I please leave, I'm feeling rather ill," Adrien interrupted the lecture.
The teacher gave him one look and nodded, noting how flushed his face was and
rather startled by his uncharacteristic outburst. He packed up his things in
record time and bolted out. 
 
===============================================================================
 
"Dude started acting strange the moment you walked in, I swear!" Nino said as
he turned to face the two ladies behind him. Class had just ended and Adrien
hadn't returned.
Marinette visibly made herself smaller wondering what she had done to mess
everything up with Adrien Agreste this time. She always managed to screw up
just being around him, or at least she felt like it. 
"I'm sure you didn't do anything," Alya said, comforting her best friend. "But
I do think we should check up on him, see if he's stuck in the bathroom or if
he made it home okay." 
Nino and Marinette agreed, both concerned as well. 
 
===============================================================================
 
Adrien headed straight for the bathroom. He went immediately into a stall and
barely got his dick out of his pants before he came into some toilet paper. He
cleaned himself up, flushed the paper down the toilet and went to wash his
hands. As he was doing so, he saw himself in the mirror over the sink. He
really didn't look so great at the moment; saying he was sick was more
believable than he thought. 
Turning off the water, Adrien gripped the sides of the sink as the whole
situation began to sink in.
'Marinette.Marinette.'  He thought. What the fuck was wrong with him? 'She was
the last one to enter before this happened. But this had started while I was
Chat so that doesn't make any sense. Chat inhaled that pollen and then...
reacted? to Ladybug. Not Marinette.' Adrien gripped the sink tighter. He
couldn't deny that the feeling had been exactly the same one, and this time he
had nearly lost it in class. 
He began to panic as he realized he was losing control of himself. What would
he do next time? It wouldn't be good that's for sure. 
'Ok calm down. Start at the beginning,' Adrien thought as he took a deep breath
and closed his eyes. 'Chat inhaled the pollen and got horny for Ladybug at a
small touch. Thinking about her last night forced me to act on the feeling.
This morning I was fine until Marinette came to-' Adrien furrowed his brow as
an abrupt thought crossed his mind. 'Could she be...?'
The door to the bathroom opened, yanking Adrien from his thoughts and causing
him to bump his head on the mirror as he jumped. Shit, how long had he been
standing here? 
Chapter End Notes
     Since I already had this chapter pretty much done I decided to put it
     up today. Thank you for the kudos and wonderful comments!!!! I didn't
     expect to get that many!
***** Chapter 3 *****
"Sorry didn't mean to scare you," Nino apologized upon seeing the blonde jump.
He then turned and stuck his head out the door to the girls waiting outside,
"He's in here." 
"I need to talk to Marinette," Adrien mumbled in response to Nino, rubbing his
head. 
Nino didn't miss it, "Dude you need to go home. You look awful, can't it wait?"
Adrien slowly shook his head, "Is she out there?"
"I mean yeah she is, but-" Adrien pushed past Nino and out the door, "Dude!"
Nino exclaimed, following after him.
Without stopping, Adrien grabbed Marinette's hand and began to lead her away
saying, "We need to speak privately, now." Marinette stuttered an incoherent
response and allowed herself to be lead. 
Alya and Nino exchanged confused looks. They resolved to follow them at a
distance, because while they had no reason not to trust Adrien, something
clearly was up. 
It took Marinette a few moments to get over the fact that Adrien Agreste was
holding her hand. Then she remembered that this would never happen without a
good reason. Something definitely was wrong here. Not that she was going to
make him let go.
At the same time, Adrien had to channel all his focus to stay in control. He
had gotten hard again the moment he grabbed her hand. He lead Marinette to the
side of the school, where the dumpster was and onto the far side of it where
they weren't likely to be bothered. He had used this spot to transform into
Chat and vice versa on more than one occasion. 
As they arrived, Adrien pulled Marinette in front of him then proceeded to push
her up against the wall. He placed a hand on either side of her shoulders on
the wall. 
"I'm really sorry about this, but I didn't want you to run from me like you
usually do and this is really important," Adrien hadn't meant to trap her like
this but his actions got away from him and he couldn't will his body to stop. 
Marinette's heart was racing. One look at him- the way his cheeks were flushed,
stress clear in his eyes, and how he was clearly trying to restrain himself
from getting any closer to her- told her that Adrien was not okay. 
 
===============================================================================
 
Alya and Nino quietly crept down the alleyway that Adrien and Marinette had
entered. Keeping out of sight, they crouched on the opposite side of the
dumpster from their friends. They had just arrived when they heard an "ompf"
followed by Adrien apologizing. Alya began to get up to see what had happened,
but was stopped by Nino. 
"Give them a chance," he whispered, "we won't know what's going on if we
interrupt now." Alya reluctantly crouched back down. It wouldn't be difficult
to hear from here, though if Adrien's apology was anything to go off, he wasn't
making much effort to keep quiet. 
Adrien took a deep breath, preparing to speak and knowing he had to be quick.
He wished he had had time to plan this out. 
"Ok forgive me if I'm wrong but I think that pollen, I mean you should remember
it and the choking and but anyway its making me lose control so I'm really
sorry and I thought it would wear off and it shouldn't even be happening with
you because it wasn't you that it first happened with unless it was you and I
mean I wasn't exactly me either at the time and I was a dumbass for running
away instead of telling you-" Adrien inhaled sharply and his whole face went
red because he couldn't remember when he had started grinding against
Marinette.
The poor girl could hardly process what Adrien was saying before he had started
rubbing up against her, much less after. Her face was equally as red and she
looked down as much as she could without simply staring at his hips. 
"I'm so fucking sorry. I'm so sorry just I'm so very sorry..." Adrien began to
ramble. He couldn't even stop himself. 
Marinette saw a few drips fall in between them and finally looked up to see
Adrien had tears streaming down his face as he apologized. Her eyes met his
just before he was pulled off of her. 
 
===============================================================================
 
Alya had heard enough. Whatever Adrien was attempting to say made zero sense
and now he was suddenly apologizing non-stop. She ran around the dumpster and
was horrified at the scene before her.
"Nino!" she called as she moved to pull Adrien away. Nino was by her side in a
second and together they forcefully yanked him off of Marinette. Nino
restrained his best friend while Alya checked on hers. 
"Are you okay Mari? Did he hurt you? What the fuck happened!?" Marinette just
opened and closed her mouth a couple times at Alya's questions, still trying to
comprehend everything. 
"Thank you guys," Adrien sobbed, fully crying now. Alya turned to look at him
because that was the last thing she expected to hear from him right now. She
stood there and took in the situation. 
Adrien was crying.
Marinette was dumbfounded.
Nino was speechless.
Alya was apprehensive.

The four of them exchanged various looks in silence.
On a normal day, each of them would be currently enjoying lunch at this moment.
On a normal day, people didn't get assaulted by their crush. 
On a normal day, you wouldn't expect Marinette to be the one to break the
silence.
"C-can we go s-somewhere else?" Everyone turned their attention to her.
Adrien nodded rapidly, "My house. Dad is on another tour (not that his dad was
ever really home) and I can tell Nathalie to leave us alone." Secret identities
or not, Adrien knew now that he couldn't be trusted to be alone with Marinette.
This also certainly wasn't the best place to have this conversation by any
means. Plus he wasn't 100% sure Marinette was indeed Ladybug anyway.
The rest of the group semi-reluctantly agreed, unable to come up with anywhere
better. 
"Alright, but you will call someone to pick us up and drive us there, you will
not sit next to Marinette, you are to walk in front of us whenever possible,
and I expect a full explanation when we get there," Alya demanded, looking him
in the eyes. He quickly agreed having no issues except with explaining.
 
===============================================================================
  
"Holy shit dude this is your room!?" Alya said immediately upon entering. Nino
was the only one who had been here previously, chuckling at the two girls who
were in awe. 
"Dude's loaded; what did you expect? You haven't even seen inside his personal
bathroom yet," Nino pointed to the bathroom that was connected to Adrien's
room. 
A few moments later, Adrien entered and shut the door behind him, having
finished speaking with Nathalie. 
Alya moved to stand between him and Marinette, "Answers. now." Nino was ready
to restrain his friend again if needed but still sat on the edge of the bed,
knowing Alya could handle it. Marinette was still processing the fact that she
was in Adrien Agreste's room. 
Adrien took a deep breath, trying to collect his thoughts and maintain some
level of control. He'd given up on trying to will away his erection because his
friends already knew anyway. 
"All I know is I was drugged." He decided to state simply with a shrug. Alya
studied him and Marinette was drawn out of her thoughts. 
"Drugged?" Alya repeated skeptically. Marinette looked at him confused.
"Drugged." Adrien confirmed. 
Alya considered this for a few moments, "Well no matter what's causing this I
think we should be safe rather than sorry." She moved to grab his desk chair
and motioned for him to sit. "Nino grab some of the belts from his closet that
we can put together to restrain him."
A few minutes later, Adrien was securely bound to the chair by a few belts
around his chest and arms. He didn't fight them at all because he really
couldn't blame them after what he had already done. Instead he used the time to
think about how he was going get Marinette, if she was Ladybug as he suspected,
to recognize that he was Chat. He wanted to avoid outing the both of them to
their friends, though more so because he knew how adamant Ladybug was that they
keep their identities secret than caring about outing himself. 
"So how did you possibly get drugged with this being the effect?" Alya began.
The only thing Adrien had thought of was to use the fact that only Chat and
Ladybug knew the details of what happened with the akuma last night, and cat
puns.
"Well it was a cat-astrophe," He began, trying to sound as much like Chat as he
could, "I got hit by an akuma attack that used pollen and practically choked up
a hairball." He looked at Marinette frequently but tried not to keep his gaze
only on her.
She was listening quite intensely now, having noticed the shift. 
 "The most recent akuma was in the red-light district last night," Alya pointed
out. It had been on the news this morning. "Why would you have been there?"
Though she did have to admit to herself that it did fit with the whole sex-
crazed thing.
"uh..." Adrien hesitated, not having thought about that. He began to blush at
the possibilities that ran through his head and none of them he exactly wanted
to say.
"Ok fine forget I asked," Alya decided upon seeing his reaction. Adrien was
grateful that it had been answer enough. 
Meanwhile, the gears were turning in Marinette's head. She knew full well what
happened in that akuma attack, including Chat getting a face full of pollen and
choking on it. He had also acted strange after, but why would Adrien know about
any of this? How would he know the akuma had used pollen when Chat was the only
one it got used on, plus the details of the fight hadn't been mentioned on the
news as far as she knew. And then there was the cat puns???
Alya decided to cut to the chase, "What did you need to tell Marinette so
badly?"
Adrien purposefully addressed Marinette this time when he spoke, and if this
didn't work then he had been mistaken.
"Turns out I wasn't feline as well as I thought." He admitted softly, the same
line he had given Ladybug. He saw the moment it clicked on Marinette's face and
heard her gasp quietly. He flashed her a grin and a wink just like Chat would
often do to Ladybug. 
"Okay what is with the cat puns seriously?" Alya couldn't understand why he
wouldn't be more serious in a situation like this. 
Marinette began to panic. Adrien was Chat Noir. Adrien had figured out
Marinette was Ladybug so now Chat knew Ladybug was Marinette because Chat was
Adrien. Adrien had been flirting with her. Chat was her crush. How were Chat
and Adrien the same person?! She felt like she was going to short circuit her
brain.
"How? When?" Marinette squeaked followed by something incoherent. 
Assuming she meant how and when he had discovered she was Ladybug, Adrien
shrugged as much as he could with the restraints and said with a sheepish grin,
"Let's just say I found out the hard way." He made a point of glancing down at
his crotch to emphasize his pun. 
Marinette groaned and Adrien counted that as a success. 
On the other hand, Alya and Nino had no idea what they had just missed and Alya
plopped down onto the bed next to Nino.
Adrien was both relieved and excited that he had been right about Marinette
being Ladybug. This wasn't exactly how he had wanted to find out, but it was a
little late for that. Ladybug had been right behind him the whole time,
literally when they were in school. Marinette was never anything but nice to
him, with what interaction she could manage, and when he had visited her as
Chat that one time and gotten to really see who she was-
His thoughts didn't get any farther as a moan escaped his lips and his stomach
tightened pleasantly. So much for control.
Adrien's face was bright red after cumming in his pants without even touching
himself and he looked down. He could feel Alya's and Nino's stares but even
worse than that was the fact that he had been looking at Marinette when it
happened. He had never been more embarrassed. 
Marinette had been watching him as it happened and tried to hold back her
laughter. She was seeing him as Chat right now thanks to that pun and, as bad
as she felt for him, this was the guy who tried to be so cool and smooth with
Ladybug and he had just cum in his pants like a preteen. She couldn't hold it
back for long before she was nearly doubled over.
"They've finally lost it," Alya mumbled to Nino, who nodded slowly in
agreement.
In between laughs Marinette teased, "Seriously Chat?"
Adrien/Chat responded with a dramatic whine and a slight look that told her he
wasn't really upset. 
A few seconds later they both froze, realizing they had made a mistake.

Alya was beginning to wonder if this was all some crazy dream she was having.
She just couldn't figure out what Marinette found so hilarious about Adrien
staring at her while jizzing his pants, not to mention what the fuck had
exactly gotten him so excited in the first place? And the whole scenario was
strange as is. Sex pollen? If this was some sort of fucked up wet dream she was
going to go seek therapy.
Then, she heard something that peaked her interest.
"Seriously Chat?"
Alya watched the two react as if she was a hawk watching her prey. She saw them
freeze; Marinette stopped laughing. A grin snuck onto her face as she stood up
and sauntered back over to them. It was the missing piece she needed and they
were not getting out of this one.
"Hey Marinette, what was so funny? Or maybe Chat Noir over here wants to fill
me in?" She gestured to Adrien as she spoke. 
Marinette could see that Alya wasn't going to let this one go and struggled to
find something to say. However, Adrien beat her to it. 
"So the cat's out of the bag I guess," Adrien started slowly, noting that there
was no way out of him being found out as Chat. He could try to cover for
Marinette though thanks to the Evillustrator incident, "That's why I was in the
district and near the akuma to get hit by that stupid pollen."
"So why did you need to tell Marinette this so badly then? And why were you
reacting to only her and not any of the other girls in class?" Alya knew there
was more to this story, and she could answer her own question but would rather
make them admit it.
Marinette saw how Alya was grinning and knew they had lost. Still, for some
reason Adrien kept talking.
"Well obviously I needed to tell her what was happening," He answered, "and as
for why- I really don't know." That much was true. Why it was focused on
Ladybug/Marinette was beyond him. 
Alya rolled her eyes, "We heard you two talking in the alley..."
"Chat I appreciate the effort but I'm not getting out of this one either."
Marinette gave Alya an apologetic look for interrupting her. 
"You are Ladybug..." Alya said in awe. This whole situation made so much more
sense now.
Marinette nodded, and quickly began to explain, "But Chat, Adrien, and I really
had no idea until just now either who each other was because you of all people
know that if I knew Chat was Adrien Agreste there's no way I would've saved
anyone around him! And him getting hit with that pollen is the only reason we
even know now because its focused on me for some reason and I was Ladybug when
it first happened."
Adrien jumped in, "and I-or Chat at the time- completely just ran from her when
it happened because what was I supposed to do? That suit doesn't exactly hide
anything and I didn't know it would get worse and I'm sorry I didn't just talk
to you about it Ladybug I should trust you more than that."
"I just can't believe that you're Chat!" Marinette exclaimed, throwing up her
hands, "You two act completely different and if I had known Adrien was flirting
with me and declaring his love for me..." she drifted off as her face flushed.
Adrien smirked, "Do you regret not kissing me now, my lady?"
Marinette stuttered, "w-well I uh I mean..." Now everyone was looking at her
quizzically.
"Wait, have you kissed him before?" Alya raised her eyebrow.
"He got hit by Dark Cupid when Kim was akumatized and I had to to get him back
to normal and I didn't think it counted I mean he didn't even remember it
after!" Marinette spit out. 
"Seriously?!" Adrien groaned, confirming that he really didn't remember that.
He recovered quickly however, teasing, "You know that means you stole my first
kiss!" leaving Marinette speechless. 
Alya couldn't believe everything she was just now finding out. She was beyond
excited at finding out two of her closest friends were Ladybug and Chat Noir,
on top of which they totally had a thing for each other and were just being
stopped by, literally, themselves. 
"So that means you two will finally start dating right? And then that means
Ladybug and Chat will also be an item of course." Alya so wanted to write about
that on her blog, but she wouldn't out their identities. 
"That's like your dream come true! For both of you!" Nino said, standing up and
joining the conversation. Even he was pretty happy for everyone. 
Adrien blushed a little, but ultimately frowned saying, "If my lady will have
me after what I've done, or have we forgotten why I'm currently tied to a
chair?"
The mood fell as the situation weighed on them again. 
"So do we think this is curable?" Alya asked.
Adrien and Marinette shrugged, but Nino responded to her, "If it is I only see
one way to cure it."
Alya and Nino locked eyes and slowly started to grin again. 
"You mean give it what it wants"
"uh-huh"
Marinette didn't like the look on their faces at all.

Alya and Nino were too fast for Marinette to react. The next thing she knew,
her face was mere inches from Adrien's and she was on his lap, straddling him.
She thought her face was going to burn off.
Adrien's reaction was immediate. His arms were only bound at his sides (they
hadn't seen any reason he needed his hands tied together since he still
wouldn't be able to reach the buckles) so he was able to grab at her thighs
with his hands, effectively holding her there. His face was as red as hers when
he finally processed what was happening, but he couldn't let go.
Alya already had Marinette's phone from her bag, "Alright I texted your mom
that you're going to Adrien's after school so he can help you with physics.
I'll put this right here by the bed. Call me if you need anything." Alya gave
them a wink, smirking and putting the phone on the nightstand. "Nino and I need
to get back to class but we'll let the teacher know that you had to help Adrien
get home because he's 'sick'." 
Both Adrien and Marinette protested at the same time in a jumble of words. 
Alya cut them off quickly, "Hey now. Not like either of you haven't thought
about doing each other in some form." Marinette squeaked because that was
supposed to stay between her and Alya while Adrien looked away in shame. Alya
just looked at them knowingly with a shrug, "teenage hormones right? Have fun!"
With that, Nino and her left them to their privacy, making extra sure the door
was shut.
"Don't do this just because of my stupidity!" Adrien blurted. This wasn't
consensual at all and he already felt terrible about it.
"I-I" Marinette couldn't even form words. She could feel his erection against
her crotch now and he had a firm grip on her thighs. Adrien looked at her
anxiously and tried not to sniff her neck, again, considering he had done that
to Ladybug once.  
It was a full minute before Marinette had collected herself enough to speak.
Adrien hadn't resisted sniffing that long and found her scent intoxicating.
"You would die for me. I can take the hit this time," She had thought about all
the times Adrien had protected her as Chat, down to the arrow he took from dark
cupid straight in his back. If that hadn't shown how devoted he was to
protecting her, she didn't know if anything could. Her life wasn't in danger
here and he really needed her. If there was any chance of curing his
affliction, this was it.
Her resolve set, she began to undo the buckles holding him.
"What if I hurt you?" Adrien's voice was a mix of emotions. 
"Then you hurt me and we deal with it." Marinette answered softly. She wasn't
going to lie to him and tell him everything would be alright, that he wouldn't
hurt her and everything would be peachy after. They both knew it was a real
possibility and that this was going to change their relationship. She
continued, "I'm not going to leave you because of this Adrien, Chat; this isn't
your fault."
Adrien still looked worried but nodded as the last belt came loose and he was
freed.
He was going to do his damnedest not to hurt her.
He slid his hands along her gently until they were on her back, albeit under
her shirt, then hugged her tight against him.
"I swear I'll make this up to you Marinette," He whispered against her ear. She
wrapped her arms around him in response, lightly hugging him back. 
He moved one of his hands under her to carry her as he stood. He noted how
light she was, though he knew he was fairly strong from running around as Chat
and his fencing lessons. 
Marinette knew he wasn't going to let go now that he had her and went along,
wrapping her legs around his waist. The only thing she could do now was let him
have control and do her best to go along with whatever happened. 
Chapter End Notes
     Another short chapter unfortunately but I tried to get it up as soon
     as I caught some free time since the last chapter was short too. The
     next chapter should be longer and have 100% more sin.

Chapter Notes
     BEFORE YOU READ I'm assuming that both of them are 15, which is the
     legal age of consent in France (at the time of my writing this).
     However, I still changed the warning to underage because america.
     Edit: Read the last part of this chapter at your own risk. It gets
     harsh and it's not supposed to be sexy or comfortable. Marinette knew
     when she freed him though that it might happen.

Adrien carried Marinette over to his bed and sat down on the edge, her still
straddling him. He needed to feel more of her. He began to undress, starting by
shrugging out of his button up and tossing it aside.
He looked hesitantly at Marinette as she followed suit and her black jacket
fell to the floor. The more she could do herself the better off they were. He
continued by stripping out of his shirt and watched for her to do the same. 
Her hands hesitated at the hem of her shirt. She was partly distracted by the
fine sight in front of her but also embarrassed. She stared at his chest,
taking in how defined it was and noting that he was getting close to having abs
but not quite there yet. 
Adrien would normally be more than happy to let his lady stare as much as she
liked, but the need was growing and the sooner they got this over with the more
in control he could be. He slid his hands under her shirt and lifted it up as
gently as he could but still with enough force that it was clear he was getting
it off. 
Marinette was snapped from her gaze and lifted her arms up to allow him to
remove it. He didn't hesitate to reach around to get at her bra after and her
blush was back in full force as he had no trouble at all undoing the clasp. She
had expected him to at least fumble a little.
"Underwear line. Heard enough models complain about these things," Adrien felt
the need to explain. He pulled it forward and off of her arms, turning to look
off to the side as he did so. He may have felt the need to touch and be with
her physically, but he didn't need to (but damn he wanted to) see and the more
comfortable she was the better. 
Marinette appreciated the gesture as her bra was added to the pile. She wrapped
her arms to cover herself, only to have them removed a second later as he
pulled their bare chests together with a small sigh of relief. The skin to skin
felt better than she would have thought. It was comforting in a way and more
intimate than she had ever felt with anyone.
Adrien focused his attention on getting his shoes off now. Unfortunately, they
were laced too tight for him to just kick them off. 
"Hold on to me, I need to untie my shoes," Adrien mumbled, slightly
embarrassed. Marinette didn't quite understand until he started to lean
forward, tipping her back, and she wrapped her hands around him to hold on. He
awkwardly got them both untied and sat back up, kicking them off. Marinette's
flats slipped off much easier, and she tossed them adside.
The thought of why he needed his shoes off sank in and Marinette tensed up.
Everything felt surreal; they couldn't really be about to do this right? There
was no way Adrien Agreste was preparing to have sex with her. She found
thinking of him as Chat wasn't any better, but at least slightly more
believable. She briefly wondered if she let a name slip by accident which one
it would be. 
Adrien felt her tense and tried to comfort her by rubbing her back. While they
were both of age (and he was so grateful for that), he knew this wasn't how
either of them imagined having their first time.
"You know clothes have always been a pain in my ass, but never in this sense
before," he said with a laugh, trying to lighten the mood. She snickered and
relaxed a bit. 
Adrien took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He pushed her away just
forcefully enough to get her to let go and laid down on his back. He hissed
quietly in pain from breaking the contact. His hands found her hips and moved
her forward so she was sitting on his chest instead. 
"Bet you can't guess what kind of underwear I wear," He asked trying to keep
her distracted as he worked as fast as he could to get his pants off. 
"Agreste brand boxer-briefs," Marinette answered before her brain could catch
up, "I mean uh..." Shit. She was so glad he had his eyes closed and desperately
hoped he didn't ask how she knew that.
"Uh, yeah," He was a little shocked but didn't pause in stripping. "How..."
"Nino," Marinette cut him off, wanting to get this conversation over with. She
heard his pants drop to the floor.
"...why?" Adrien didn't understand why she would even have wanted to know, or
why his best friend would give her that information. She had just recently
begun being friendly with him as Adrien, an improvement from when she barely
spoke to him and ran. He went to remove his underwear and realized it was
sticky and gross from when he had ejaculated earlier. He blushed and carefully
took them off, trying not to make any more of a mess. He then removed his socks
and used those to clean up as much as he could.
Marinette couldn't even look at him anymore and she felt like her face was
going to burn off, "Because Adrien is the reason I kept rejecting Chat and its
not even fair that you're the same person!" She blurted.
Suddenly she felt herself being thrown onto her back in the middle of his bed,
her head hitting the pillows. She felt him start to undo her pants and inhaled
sharply.
"Seriously?" Adrien asked, unsure whether to laugh or be disappointed that she
liked his boring self more, "I had no idea. So if not for me, would you have
given Chat a chance?" 
Marinette chanced a glare at him, because now was not the time for this
conversation, and immediately regretted it. He was kneeling over her legs with
everything in full view as he pulled her pants and panties down together. She
quickly looked away in a stammering mess, having only seen enough to know now
that he was uncircumcised. 
Adrien attributed the stammering to the fact that she was naked now. He tossed
her socks aside, "My eyes are still closed, cat's honor." He leaned over her,
sliding his hands along her sides for guidance. He bent down near her ear and
whispered with a smirk, "But feel free to look at me as much as you'd like."
The thought of her looking made him a little embarrassed, but he didn't really
mind if she wanted to see considering he was going to do worse. 
Marinette shivered and wondered if you could actually die of embarrassment. She
felt him lie down on his side next to her and pull her to face him. She didn't
have the strength to stop him. 
"I want you on top okay?" He figured that might be more comfortable right now,
since he really needed to feel all of her on all of him. He didn't wait for a
response, not knowing if she could even formulate one, and pulled her close
before rolling over so she was laying on him. He let out a moan of pleasure.
She quickly lifted her hips off of him at the feeling of his hard-on. He firmly
pushed her back down so her sex was against him. He held her tightly and tried
not to grind against her. He didn't think that would feel good for her because,
while he felt some wetness it was lower down than where he would be rubbing
against. 
Marinette couldn't focus on anything but the feeling of him against her. Her
brain was going to be fried by the time this was over.
They stayed like that for a few moments, Adrien only growing more and more
frustrated. He finally lifted her hips slightly and reached a hand under her.
She squeaked as he dipped his fingers in her wetness and spread it so it
covered everywhere between her folds. When he felt she was slick enough for it
to not be too uncomfortable, he put her back down with his dick against her
again and began to grind. 
She gasped and tightened her grip on him. It didn't feel bad and every once in
a while he actually rubbed against her clit, but it wasn't great either. It was
more the fact of what was rubbing her and who it belonged to that turned her
on.
As nice as this felt, Adrien was beginning to feel the need to be inside of
her. However, he really wanted penis-in-vagina sex to be a last resort. He had
heard it hurt for girls their first time and he didn't want to take Marinette's
first time like this either if he didn't have to. He had another idea of how he
could be inside her, and give her some pleasure too while they were at it.
He kept up the grinding for another minute or so until it just wasn't good
enough anymore. He lifted Marinette so she was on her hands and knees over him.
"W-what?" Marinette didn't know what he wanted her to do and was surprised at
being pushed away. She was finally coming to terms with what was happening.
"T-turn around," Adrien was slightly embarrassed at what he was about to have
her do and what he wanted to do for her. 
"W-what?" She repeated, unsure in what way he wanted her to turn.
He let out a frustrated groan, but still kept his eyes shut. He put one hand on
her ass and the other on her shoulder. He pushed on her shoulder and pulled on
her ass saying, "Put your ass up here and your head down there."
Marinette scrambled to do what he wanted, never having seen him this demanding
before. When she was in position it became painfully obvious what he wanted,
but he didn't give her time to think about it. Adrien immediately grabbed her
hips and pulled her down onto his face, licking at her folds. Her arms went
weak and she collapsed onto him.
"a-ah," This was way better than anything she had ever done herself. She hadn't
expected that he was going to do this for her.
She laid there and didn't do anything until she heard Adrien whining needily.
She couldn't blame him for wanting this; this felt amazing. She gathered her
courage and grabbed his dick, guiding it to her mouth and giving an
experimental lick. She wanted to gag at how it tasted bitter, but wondered if
she really tasted any better. The noise of pleasure he had made at just that
one lick though was enough to make her take him into her mouth.
She only took as much as was comfortable, though he wasn't too big. She
gave little sucks and swirled her tongue around, judging what was good and what
was better by the noises he made and how he ate at her. She experimentally
moved his foreskin up and down, licking over the tip underneath. 
She felt him tense up and grab her hard. She took him out of her mouth to see
what was wrong as he came, shooting his load onto her face instead of in her
mouth. She moved to wipe it off, when she felt his hand on the back of her head
pushing her back down.
"In your mouth," Adrien paused eating her out to demand. He needed to ejaculate
inside of her. 
She gulped, but resumed what she had been doing. She had been getting close to
orgasm herself, but the cum on her face was rather a turn-off. 
It took longer this time before he came again. Marinette braced herself when
she felt him tense up and grab her tight for the second time, but kept her
mouth around his dick as he came. She waited until he stopped twitching before
taking him out.
She tried to swallow it, she really did. She just couldn't do it and gagged at
the thought, spitting it out onto him. 
"S-sorry," She said. 
"Don't care," Adrien responded. He slid under her until he was out and sat up
facing her.
Marinette sat down on her knees and noticed that he wasn't closing his eyes
anymore and he was looking at her with hunger. His demeanor had become
much more feral. 
"A-adrien?" Fear laced Marinette's voice. This wasn't like him at all. He
grunted in response and shoved her roughly onto her back. He grabbed her legs
and put them over his shoulders, lining himself up.
Marinette's eyes went wide before she screamed in pain. Adrien had rammed his
dick into her without any preparation at all. Despite being wet, she felt like
she was being ripped apart. He pulled out nearly all the way and rammed in
again, shooting the pain through her all over. He did it once more, this time
orgasming as he pushed in deep. 
She desperately hoped this would be over now that he had ejaculated inside of
her, but he just began thrusting more rhythmically after, fucking her into the
pillows. It hurt so much that Marinette started to cry. She didn't even notice
when he switched to the classic missionary position. 
After what seemed like an eternity, but was realistically only a few minutes,
Adrien thrust in deep and came inside her for a second time.
He hovered over her for a few seconds finishing before blacking out.

Everything hurt. She knew it would hurt the first time but fuck she didn't
expect it to be this bad. It didn't help when Adrien fell on top of her, making
it harder to breathe. Her thoughts grew fuzzy...
 
===============================================================================
 
Marinette awoke to the sound of her phone ringing. The boy on top of her also
stirred slightly, wrapping his arms around her and cuddling. She groped around
on the nightstand until she felt her phone and answered it when she saw it was
Alya.
"Well!?" Alya's face filled the screen as she obviously wanted to know all the
details. "Wait hang on don't move." Alya backed away from her phone and a click
could be heard.
"...Did you just take a screenshot?" Marinette said, suddenly coming to her
senses. Her cheeks flared red. 
"Well you two are adorable and just look at the way hes all cuddled up to you!"
Alya grinned. "So does that mean it went well?"
Marinette's face fell.
"I guess that depends on if it worked. It was more painful than anything," she
admitted.
"If what worked...?" Adrien slurred as he heard bits and pieces of the
conversation. His head was spinning and things were less than coherent at the
moment, but he was coming around. 
"You two having sex," Alya answered him. 
"...sex?" It took him a moment to process the word, but eventually everything
came back to him. He pushed himself up and looked down at Marinette underneath
him.
Marinette let out a gasp and pulled him back down since he was the only thing
covering her.
Both of them were bright red because apparently he had forgotten to pull out
before falling asleep and did so just now when he got up. 
Alya laughed, "Hey Nino and I plan to swing by later to check on you guys. Try
to be decent okay?" With that she hung up.
"I'm so sorry," Adrien began to panic, "I didn't even use a condom and I don't
want you to get pregnant because of me, argh I'm so stupid." He put his head
down next to hers.
"Actually I'm on birth control," Marinette said quietly, "It really helps with
periods and not cramping and yeah."
She could feel him relax. They laid in silence for a minute before he slid off
of her.
"Hey Marinette can you be honest with me?" He looked straight at her, but she
wouldn't meet his eyes. "How much did I hurt you?"
She rolled over to face away from him.
"Are you better now?" she asked instead of answering his question.
Adrien propped himself up to look at her. He couldn't quite read her
expression, was she hurting or maybe scared but still concerned? He sat up the
rest of the way and checked himself over.
No feeling of need to touch her, no loss of self-control at the moment, no
hard-on.
"I-Is that blood?" Adrien stuttered as he looked down at himself. That wasn't
his blood.
"Please tell me you're just on your period," He said weakly, not believing it
even if she told him it was true. He hurt her badly. He made her rip and bleed.
Marinette shook her head no in response and curled up.
"W-would a bath help? I'll go start one." He scrambled off the bed and into his
bathroom. He grabbed a stack of towels from one of the many cabinets and set
them on the counter. He then wrapped one around his waist to cover himself. He
walked over to the bath and started the water, adjusting the temperature until
he found one that was just right. As the bath filled, he slid down to the floor
against the side of the tub and pulled his knees to his chest.
'How can I ever make this up to her?' He thought as tears threatened to fall.
'Her first time shouldn't have been this way. I can't give that back to her.'
He began to cry silently. 'I wouldn't blame her for never wanting to see me
again. After all this is all my fault. She probably hates me now after I hurt
her so bad. All I do is destroy.'
It was a few minutes before Marinette got up with a groan. Everything hurt when
she moved. She could hear the water running and supposed she should go in
there. She tried to just ignore the events of the day for now. She couldn't
deal with it all right now.
She picked up one of his shirts off the ground and held it in front of herself
for cover as she made her way to the bathroom. She paused in the doorway as she
took in the hugeness of it. There were cabinets and mirrors on both sides with
a shower and a tub at the back. She grabbed one of the towels from the counter
and discarded the shirt as she wrapped it around herself. It wasn't hard to
tell that Adrien was crying.
Chat was also crying, Marinette suddenly remembered. This wasn't just Adrien,
this was also her partner. 
She sat down next to him against the tub, lightly pressed against his side. He
hadn't heard her come in and looked up at her, unable to hide the fact that he
was crying.
"I'm so sorry Marinette," he choked.
"I told you we would deal with it," Marinette tried her best to keep her voice
steady and speak softly.
"But I can't make this up to you can I?" He looked away from her, "I destroyed
our relationship."
"You didn't destroy it." She replied quickly, "I-It's just going to be
different now."
He just kept crying as he turned to look at her again. 
"Adrien, Chat, that wasn't you." Marinette finally looked him in the eyes, "I
know you better than anyone and I know neither Chat nor Adrien would ever do
anything like that. You were infected and its over now." She gave him a small
smile. "I hope both of them still stay by my side."
Adrien sniffled as he searched her features for any sign of doubt but found
none. 
"You don't hate me?" He asked, unfolding himself to face her more fully.
"Of course I don't hate you," Marinette put her hand on his shoulder. 
Adrien touched it lightly with his own hand before reaching out to place his
hand on her shoulder as well.
His heart beat faster as he looked at her. She didn't hate him. His lady still
wanted to stay by his side. Marinette wanted him by her side. Maybe they could
fix this. Maybe he could make this up to her. 
"Can I kiss you?" The words tumbled out of his mouth before he could stop them.

***** Chapter 9 *****
Marinette stared at him as she processed what he just said. Adrien knew he
couldn't take it back now and started thinking how to change the subject.  
 "W-what?" Marinette finally responded, "You... kiss? Want?"
"That was stupid I'm so sorry this is so not the right time," Adrien scrambled
to his feet and moved to dig through one of the drawers, "I mean I know you
keep rejecting me as Chat and plus... thatjust happened and I get it if you're
not comfortable with me right now." He finally decided on what he wanted from
the drawer. "Here have you used bath bombs before? This is one of my
favorites." Adrien held out a mostly blue sphere with splashes of other
colors. 
Marinette watched him as things sunk in. She had been denying Adrien the whole
time.  He just asked to kiss her. But Chat wanted to kiss Ladybug.  They had
sex without even kissing. ...she had sex with Adrien. Even if it was rough and
not ideal, She hadsex with Adrien. 
"Hey are you okay?" He quickly knelt down in front of her. She was practically
hyperventilating. "Please calm down I'm so sorry I never should have said
anything. Tell me what I can do to help."
"We. Sex. Happen?" She attempted to speak. Her heart was beating too fast. 
"Yes that happened." Adrien tried to speak softly. "Do you want me to leave?"
Marinette shook her head no then asked, "You want to kiss Ladybug?"
He looked at her confused, "Marinette what are you trying to ask?" 
She took a deep breath and tried to gather her thoughts, "Chat wants to kiss
Ladybug."
"...Ok?" That was true but he didn't understand what she was trying to get at.
She was Ladybug- there was no doubt about it. 
"What about me?" She said quietly. What they just did didn't have any meaning
to it. Did he ask because he just wanted to kiss Ladybug? Everything felt
messed up and muddied. 
"Oh." Adrien smiled softly. "Chat wants to kiss Ladybug but Adrien wants to
kiss Marinette. I told you I would love the person behind the mask just as much
didn't I?" He cautiously reached out and cupped her cheek, giving her plenty of
time to say no or stop him. But she didn't. She looked like she might cry. 
He wanted to kiss her now but he didn't want to force her. She hadn't given him
permission yet. Instead he gave her a grin, "And lucky me for once that the
girl underneath is one of my closest friends. Or maybe I'm borrowing your
luck."
He stood and looked over at the tub behind her. The huge tub was just about
full and he turned off the water. 
He offered her his hand to help her up, "Do you want to drop it in?" 
She accepted his help and stood with a little pain, "y-you go ahead"
He shrugged and gently put the bath bomb into the water. It fizzed and the blue
spread throughout the water. 
"If need anything just let me know." Adrien told her, "But you'll have to let
go of my hand or I can't exactly leave you to your bath." He teased.
Marinette blushed but didn't let go, "Y-yes you can k-k-k." She stuttered and
couldn't say the last word, but she didn't need to. 
Adrien understood and closed the distance between them,  "Are you sure?" He
whispered, hesitating. She nodded, closing her eyes.
She soon felt his lips press softly against hers. It was simple and gentle, but
it gave her butterflies. It was over all too soon.

"Hey I'm starving! Will you two get clean already? You both smell awful," Plagg
groaned, interrupting their moment.
Adrien sighed and turned his head to look at his kwami, giving him a glare,
"There's cheese in the mini fridge. I'll get you some when Marinette is settled
for her bath."
"Why can't you both just clean up together? I mean the bath is huge and you did
just-" Adrien snatched Plagg and shut him up before he could finish that
sentence. 
"Plagg!" He hissed. They didn't need a reminder.
He kept Plagg tight in his grip and turned to address Marinette once more,
taking a small step back from her. 
"Sorry about him," He said sheepishly before looking at her. Her eyes were
closed and she seemed almost frozen. 
"Marinette?"
Marinette refused to open her eyes. If she opened her eyes then this would all
just have been a dream and she didn't want this to be a dream. This couldn't
really be happening though... could it?
"...Ladybug?" Adrien tried since she didn't seem to even hear him.
Nope no way this was real. She was just kissed by Adrien and he was the one who
had asked. As if that would ever happen. But what if it was real? What did that
mean? That Adrien liked her? Well if this was just a dream anyway there was no
harm in asking right?
"I-Is this real?" She whispered, still not risking opening her eyes.
"Yes this is real," Adrien replied softly. 
Marinette got more panicked. That was Adrien's voice but also Chat's voice and
even though she knew they were the same person now it was still hard to
process.
"Does this feel more real?" He breathed against her lips as he leaned in for
another soft kiss. Marinette had a sharp intake of breath and her eyes shot
open to see that this was in fact Adrien kissing her for the second time. 
She was suddenly really aware that she didn't have anything but a towel on.
Said boy also had nothing but a towel on.
"Will you two just get in the fucking tub already!" Plagg shouted frustrated
after biting Adrien's hand to loosen his grip. 
Marinette turned red at the thought and started stuttering incoherently.
"Plagg she clearly doesn't want that and ug! I'm sorry. Let's go Plagg. If you
need anything just shout," Adrien quickly made his way out of the bathroom and
closed the door behind him. 
Once he was out he glared at Plagg, "How could you just say something like
that!? I already made her uncomfortable enough earlier and she really doesn't
need this right now!"
"I don't want to be a part of your gross human rituals," Plagg simply stated,
"and it would be way faster for you two to just clean up together."
"Just eat your stupid cheese." This wasn't a conversation worth having he
decided. 
A red kwami floated up to them that he assumed belonged to Ladybug, "Dont worry
I'll keep him away from you two." She said beginning to drag Plagg away.
===============================================================================
 
In the bathroom Marinette took a few deep breaths to collect herself. Sharing a
bath with Adrien! Not that she didn't want to but that was more than she could
handle right now.
She finally managed to relax in the tub. He really had gotten he water to just
the right temperature. The bath bomb made it so pretty and she could feel it
making her skin soft. The tub really would easily fit both of them.
She sank further into the tub until the water was nearly touching her nose. So
much had just happened. They couldn't just ignore it and pretend that hadn't
happened- the kiss and the sex. The sex hadn't meant anything; Chat needed
help. Adrien needed help. It seemed to have worked so she didn't regret any of
it.
She let out a small laugh. She'd had sex with Adrien yet a simple kiss had her
flustered. But the kiss had meaning. Chat had told her he would love her no
matter who she was under the mask. Adrien had repeated it only minutes ago.
She suddenly sat up. Adrien had said he loved her while she was Marinette. Then
that kiss had been meant to show her that.
A grin spread across her face and she giggled giddily. Would he date her then?
Would he want to kiss her more and hold hands and cuddle and go on dates...
===============================================================================
 
Once Plagg was away, Adrien looked over to his bed. He wandered over and began
picking up their discarded clothes, carefully folding Marinette's and putting
them in a neat pile. He tried not to really look at her bra and panties,
folding those quickly and putting them between the rest of her things. His
clothes he simply gathered up and brought to the hamper in his closet.
He picked out some clean clothes for himself for after his shower. He didn't
see much point in putting anything on now. Marinette would probably appreciate
something clean to put on too.
If he could he would've gone and grabbed her something from their women's line
but he didn't exactly want to risk leaving his room right now and attracting
any attention. He would have to deal with those questions later. So all that
left him was to give her something of his.
He spent a long time looking for something just right to give her. He didn't
want it to come across the wrong way and finally settled on one of his classic
black striped shirts that he usually wore to school and some comfortable
athletic pants that tied at the waist since they would probably be big on her.
He decided the white button up that he wore over the shirt would be too much
and put that back on its hanger. Now all he needed to get for her was some
underwear.
He blushed realizing that meant his underwear since he didn't exactly have
anything else. He dug through his drawer and pulled out a brand new pair that
was still in its packaging. It wasn't bad if it was unworn right? Certainly
better than none at all- at least that's what he told himself as he also
prepared for her to be pissed at him.
He put that under the shirt so it wasn't immediately visible. He walked over to
the bathroom door and knocked.
"Hey I brought you some clean clothes. Can I just come in and set them on the
counter? Promise I won't look." He said through the door.
He heard a splash and hoped she was okay. 
"U-um yeah," Marinette responded, clearing water from her face. She had been
fantasizing about him dating her and the knock had startled her and she had
slipped under the water. 
She heard the door open slowly and watched as he came in and set them on the
counter without looking her way once. 
"H-hope you don't mind some of mine," he said slightly embarrassed on his way
out.
He was gone before she could answer so he didn't see her grin or hear her
squeal. 
Marinette couldn't believe she was going to wear Adrien's clothes. They weren't
even dating yet! 
She began washing up and soon was drying herself off with a clean towel.
Between the bath and her excitement, the soreness and pain was practically
nonexistent. 
The first thing she did was snatch up his shirt from the top of the pile and
hold it tight. He had given her the one he wore all the time. She pulled it on
and looked at herself in the mirror not even caring that she didn't have a bra
on. 
She then turned back to the rest of the clothes and noticed the package that
sat on top of the pants. She didn't know what it was and opened it, turning
completely red when she saw its contents.
Adrien had just given her a pair of his boxer-briefs to wear. Even though they
were clearly never worn before she still covered her mouth with her hand in an
attempt to stifle her scream.
===============================================================================
 
Back in his room, Adrien sat down on the edge of his bed. The two kwami were
chatting with each other off to the side of the room as Plagg swallowed pieces
of cheese whole. 
He sighed and flopped down backwards so he was laying down. He really needed to
think of a way to make all this up to Marinette. She hadn't deserved any of
this and it wasn't her fault. He would do anything she wanted. At least he knew
that it wouldn't be that she never wanted to see him again if that kiss was
anything to go by.
Kissing her had been amazing and he would do it again in a heartbeat. She had
said yes by some miracle which had to mean she wanted it. She had every reason
to say no and be mad for him even asking. Marinette had always been awkward
around him and before now he had always assumed it was just because he was a
model- plus he hadn't exactly left the best first impression. Alya had
mentioned earlier that they both had thought about each other, so Marinette
must like him. 
She had been rejecting him, Chat, for him, Adrien. He nearly laughed at how
weird this whole thing was. Hopefully they could both move on from what had
happened and it wouldn't affect their relationship too much. He didn't want to
think what would happen if this affected how in sync they usually are fighting
akuma. 
He sat up quickly when he heard a semi-muffled scream from the bathroom. He had
no doubt was caused it; she was so mad at him wasn't she. He had gone too far.
===============================================================================
Marinette finished getting dressed when she calmed down enough. She was very
conscious of how his underwear fit. 
She took a deep breath and finally walked out of the bathroom.
"H-hey I-I'm done s-so..." She managed. 
Adrien looked over to her ready to be chewed out but it changed when he saw
her. Her hair was down, still damp, and a blush covered her face. She held her
arms over her chest, making him realize the lack of a bra, yet she looked
adorable in his slightly too big shirt. She was wearing the pants which dragged
on the floor still despite how she had tried to pull them up higher, and since
she wasn't holding anything and looked embarrassed he assumed she had in fact
put on the underwear he gave her.
She glanced between him and the floor, not sure what to do.
Adrien shook his head to snap out of it, "Y-yeah. I'll be quick."
He grabbed his clothes and scurried past her to take his shower.

Marinette walked around his room for a few minutes, really taking in everything
before finally sitting down on the edge of his bed and grabbing her phone. Alya
had already left like fifteen messages all saying about the same thing: when
can they come back over, can't believe you guys are Ladybug and Chat Noir, and
tell me everything. Another one popped in as she was reading saying that they
would just come over around six since no one was responding. Marinette sighed
and texted back a simple "ok."
Adrien made sure he was as clean as he had ever been in his life. Still he also
tried not to take longer than he needed with his shower because Marinette was
waiting. He was getting dressed after about fifteen minutes, having made sure
to grab different clothes than the ones he gave to her. She hadn't looked mad
at him but he would be the first to admit he wasn't the best at reading people.
He didn't deserve for her to not be mad after everything. She probably was
still just processing everything and it hadn't kicked in yet. 
He exited the bathroom slowly so he wouldn't scare her or see something he
shouldn't, like if she had decided to put her bra on and was still changing.
Marinette looked up from her phone at him as he walked out. 
"Alya and Nino are coming back over. Alya said around 6, so knowing her
probably 5:45 they'll be here." She told him in a soft voice. She fidgeted
awkwardly with her phone, unsure what to do right now. 
"Alright, so um, I guess we can all have dinner here, if you want?" Adrien
suggested with a half-shrug. He glanced over to his clock to see it was just
shy of 5:30 already. 
"Yeah that would work." 
There was a few minutes of awkward silence as the two of them kept exchanging
glances at each other.
Adrien finally broke and rambled quickly, "W-what do you think we should have?
I can have the kitchen make anything so anything you want is fine really. I
don't really know what Alya likes or what you like really since you know we
haven't really hung out much when it wasn't an akuma and we should do that more
maybe we could go out sometime just us?" He shut his mouth before he said
anything else and tensed up, not sure why he had said that in the first place.
He had Marinette's full attention now and he gulped when she didn't respond
right away, "Sorry I mean if you don't want to-"
"No! I mean yes I want to I just..." Marinette flailed her arms a little and
stood up as she cut him off. She groaned. She still couldn't talk to Adrien
even knowing he was Chat and after they had kissed! She took a deep breath and
tried to calm down, "Yes I want to go out with you sometime."
Adrien beamed. Ladybug had just agreed to go on a date despite everything that
had happened. And he also would get to go on a date with Marinette because they
were the same person! Honestly he couldn't think of anyone better to have
turned out to be his lady. He closed the gap between them swiftly with a very
Chat-like stride and picked her up to spin her around lightly. She squeaked a
little but giggled once she felt the familiar embrace. He set her down but
didn't take his hands off her waist, instead leaning in to kiss her again.
Marinette gladly let him.
Neither of them had noticed the door open nor their two friends gaping at them
through it until Marinette heard a familiar camera noise. She broke the kiss to
turn and look at where the offending noise came from and saw Alya with her
phone pointed at the couple. Adrien turned to look as well, grinning at Alya
when he realized she had taken a picture of them. He would have to get it from
her later. 
 
===============================================================================
 
The four of them quickly settled on just having pizza and of course Alya wanted
to hear the full story and every detail of what had happened when they were
gone. Marinette and Adrien gave them the highlights, but skipped over some of
the more personal parts. 
"Soooooooo?" Alya asked excitedly. Everyone looked at her, "Are you two
official yet?" 
Adrien shrugged looking at Marinette, who just kinda stuttered. 
"Well we haven't even been on a date yet," Adrien replied after seeing
Marinette was getting no where. 
"You did do... that though," Nino pointed out and Adrien grimaced.
"Again, it only happened because it had to," he said it forcefully so they
would finally shut up about it. He glanced over at his lady and saw she had
curled up in on herself a little bit and was biting her lip, "Maybe you guys
should head home, Marinette is probably tired plus we still have school
tomorrow." 
Nino stood up, getting the idea, "Yeah you're right. I'll text you the homework
later."
Alya and Marinette stood up as well, "You want help on the homework Mari? We
have chemistry again."
Marinette groaned. She hated chemistry. But before she could reply Adrien
stepped between the two girls.
"I can help if you need it. I'm really good at chemistry." He quickly offered.
He knew Alya was just going to pry more at Marinette and he didn't want that to
happen. 
Thankfully Nino knew it too and took Adrien's side, pulling at Alya to get her
to leave, "Adrien can help her. Plus they did say they haven't had a date yet,"
He added as an extra incentive to get her to leave them alone. 
Alya pouted a little but gave in, "Alright, see you at school tomorrow." She
gave Marinette a wink as her and Nino left. 
 
Chapter End Notes
     Hey guys I'm not dead lol. Sorry this took me forever to get posted
     and its short. My summer class started the week after finals week
     plus summer job and also finding time to work on cosplay for Anime
     Iowa coming up. So this will be kinda slow for a while. After AI and
     Gishwhes are over then I'll have more time to write on this so
     probably won't see another update until then (so like end of August).

Once they were gone, Adrien let out a breath he didn't realize he had been
holding. 
He turned to Marinette, "Sorry, you don't actually have to stay if you don't
want to. I just felt like you didn't need to deal with more questioning right
now when both of us still really haven't talked about what happened yet even."
He rubbed the back of his neck. 
Marinette nodded, rather embarrassed. 
"But before you go let me give you my phone number since I don't think I ever
got the chance to give it to you before." Marinette had always gotten so
flustered around him he hadn't wanted to make her uncomfortable and he knew he
had never given it out as Chat. 
He was about to hold out his hand to put the number in her phone when she gave
him a slightly guilty look. Pulling out her phone, she quickly typed a text and
Adrien heard his phone go off. 
"I kinda got it from Alya a while ago. I just never got the nerve to do
anything with it..." Okay so maybe that wasn't entirely true but she wasn't
about to tell him that embarrassing story. 
Adrien checked his phone to see a simple text message saying "Here's my
number." He laughed softly, "So you did." He saved the number quickly. 
Seeing that he wasn't upset, Marinette gave him a shy smile, "I really should
get home. My parents must know by now that I missed my afternoon classes."
Adrien was dreading explaining all this to his father himself, "What are you
going to tell them since... well the truth for once probably isn't a good
idea." He cringed thinking about it.
Marinette cringed at the thought as well. Saying 'Adrien was going crazy with
the need to have sex with me so we went back to his place and that's exactly
what we did oh and we also found out each other's secret identity as a bonus'
would not go over well if her parents even believed her. 
"I'm just going to say that you were upset for personal reasons that I
shouldn't talk about. I found you and couldn't leave you like that so we came
back here to talk it out. It's not entirely a lie?" Her parents knew what type
of person she was and that she wouldn't leave a friend in need, even if they
might still be disappointed in her skipping school without contacting them. 
Adrien nodded slowly as he thought about that, "Yeah that should work. I'll
make sure my story matches then."
"I'll tell Alya and Nino as well what we're going with so they won't
accidentally get us in trouble," Marinette said as she began to gather her
things. She froze as she picked up her clothes. They had forgotten she was
wearing Adrien's clothes. 
"I'm wearing your clothes." She stated out loud as her face began to get hot
again.  
Adrien picked up on the problem after she said it. That would be much harder to
explain. 
"Do you want to change back or..." he blushed slightly. 
Marinette quickly shook her head no. Honestly she wanted to 'forget' to give
him his clothes back and keep them. 
"Oh I know! Why don't you sneak in as Ladybug and change in your room first,
then 'come home' after?" Adrien ran over to his window that he normally snuck
out of when he became Chat and gestured to it. 
"That's perfect. Tikki?" She smiled at Tikki as she flew out. In a flash of
light she transformed. 
They both stood awkwardly for a minute not really sure what to say before she
left. 
"I guess I'll see you tomorrow?" Adrien spoke hesitantly.
"Y-yeah." She replied rubbing her foot on the ground. She began to turn to jump
out the window when she heard him walk closer and grab her hand. 
She turned to look at him questioningly only to see him blushing and looking at
the ground.
"W-would it be asking too much to k-kiss you again before you leave?" He looked
up, hopeful.
Marinette began nodding before shaking her head and stuttering, "No? I mean
yes? I mean I want to kiss you again." Her face grew hotter with each word.
Adrien closed the distance between them gently. They made this kiss last a
little longer than their previous one, both of them smiling as they separated. 
"See you tomorrow Adrien." Marinette said as she jumped out and headed home.
 
Chapter End Notes
     Hey guys I know its been forever and I want to apologize about that
     and also for this update being super short. Between University and
     getting an apartment and general life stuff as well as being active
     in other fandoms such as Yuri on Ice and Voltron Legndary Defender,
     this has just kinda been put on the backburner. I do want to finish
     it but I guess I'm also not entirely sure where I want to go with it
     at this point? If you have any suggestions feel free to put them in
     the comments for me to take a look! Just keep in mind I also don't
     want this to go on for too many more chapters; I want to end it
     fairly soon. Don't be surprised if this is pretty slow to update from
     here on out.
***** Chapter 13 *****
The next morning was surprisingly normal. Both Adrien and Marinette acted the
same with each other as they would've on any other school morning, which is to
say they hardly spoke to each other more than a 'good morning' before settling
down in their seats and class beginning shortly after. Thus the morning went
without incident as they shifted through their various classes.
As the lunch bell finally rang, Marinette hurriedly gathered her things and
stood up. She rushed out of class and nearly ran head first into Alya.
"Woah, girl, slow down our lunch break isn't that short." Alya joked as she
grabbed her friend by the shoulders to stop her from falling over, "Anyway I
was thinking you and I could have a girl's lunch today. Why don't we go to that
quiet cafe down the street?" 
Marinette straightened herself and smiled sheepishly at Alya, "Uh actually I
was going to go find Adrien..."
"Come on please? You still need to give me details Mari." Alya put on her best
puppy-dog look as she begged.
Marinette glanced around quickly, not spotting Adrien nor Nino. She sighed with
a small smile, "Alright but you're treating."
"Deal!" Alya grabbed her hand excitedly and they headed out.
Once at the cafe they placed their orders and sat down in a table tucked away
in the back corner where most of the tables were empty. Alya looked at
Marinette intently, giving her full attention. Marinette smiled back nervously.
"So...? Good, bad, ugly?" Alya started.
Marinette gave a shrug, "Um I don't think ugly but some good and some bad."
Alya gave a chuckle, "Yeah sounds like a first time all right. Lemme guess, he
was a virgin too?"
"Probably? I don't really know." Their food arrived and Marinette began eating.
"I still can't believe Adrien is Chat!" Alya exclaimed in a hushed voice.
"Moreover that you're Ladybug! Seriously, Mari how did you two manage to hide
this!?"
"Let me tell you with your skills as a reporter there were some close calls."
Marinette replied.
Alya grinned, "It's like you're the star of a romantic comedy. Two people who
love each other but have no idea who the other actually is. They keep chasing
each other without even knowing it. If this wasn't a sign you two were meant to
be then fate must not exist."
Marinette laughed.
The two joked about rom coms and the different scenarios they could have been
in for a few minutes while eating, each one getting more and more ridiculous.
When the two finished eating Alya finally asked about the part Marinette had
been dreading talking about.
"So how was he in bed? I mean I haven't had much sex either and admittedly my
first time was pretty meh."
"You know I only did it because he needed help." Marinette said quietly as she
fiddled with her drink. 
Alya looked at her more concerned, "Are you alright Mari?"
Marinette nodded, "I mean parts of it were fun you know? It was kinda awkward
at first? But he didn't look at all he really kept his promise not to, "
Marinette grew redder as she remembered everything that had happened, "but some
stuff didn't really work like we hoped and then he you know-"
Alya frowned as she looked at Marinette, who was making herself smaller and
cringing.
"It hurt, Alya. Really bad."
Alya moved to bring Marinette into a hug. "Oh, Mari, honey. I'm sorry."
They stayed like that for a moment until Marinette calmed down. 
"Hey you may decide that you just don't like vaginal sex and that's perfectly
fine," Alya smiled softly as Marinette looked at her. "Though Mari if it hurt
that bad like you said I think it wouldn't hurt to go talk to your doctor."
Marinette frowned at looked at her with concern. "Your first time will be
uncomfortable yeah but generally if it hurts like that there's something else
going on."
"Really?" Marinette bit her lip, "I'll make an appointment then. I'll just tell
my parents I think I need to adjust my pill."
"Speaking of your parents, what did you tell them about missing school anyway?"
"Just that Adrien was upset and really needed someone and I couldn't leave
him."
Alya smiled, "Yeah that sounds like something you would do. Especially since
they know how you like him." She teased.
Marinette blushed but smiled. The two cleaned up their things and began to head
back to school.
"Hey Mari, just so you know if you ever need to talk about this you know you
can call me anytime. All serious no teasing I promise."
"Thanks Alya." The two hugged once more before heading to their respective
classes.

Adrien watched with a sigh as Marinette left with Alya. He hadn't caught her in
time and he had been really hoping to spend lunch together so they could talk
before her and Alya did. He turned as he felt a hand on his shoulder and saw
Nino giving him a sympathetic look.
"Let them go; you know how Alya is." Nino said.
Adrien nodded and walked with Nino to eat lunch. They ended up sitting outside
some distance away from everyone else. 
"So what about you dude? How are you holding up?" Nino asked after swallowing a
bite of his sandwich.
Adrien shrugged, "I don't know. What I did was..." he looked down disgusted
with himself, "awful."
"I don't need the details, nor do I want them," Nino waved his hand, "but if
you need someone to talk to I'm here."
They sat in silence for a while, eating their lunches slowly. Adrien thought
about what happened and started to feel guilty. Sure Marinette had seemed okay,
but that was before they really had time to process what had happened. He hated
that he had given in like that and couldn't control himself. And even worse was
that he hadn't just done that to Marinette, he had done that to his partner
Ladybug. He could lose both of them over this. 
"Hey dude snap out of it." Nino cut into his thoughts. He looked up to see his
friend frowning. "Why don't you tell me what's going on?"
Adrien took a deep breath, "Do you really think Marinette still wants to be my
friend?"
"Yeah absolutely," Nino didn't hesitate, "Mari may hurt for a while, but she
wouldn't let this come between you two. She knew what she was doing when she
agreed to help you."
Adrien didn't reply so Nino continued, "Alya kept telling me about how this had
to be fate and you two were meant to be."
Adrien perked up a tiny bit at that, "I mean even I have to admit this might be
a bit much to just be coincidence. The fact that Mari is Ladybug and your Chat,
and then on top of that you go to school together and already knew each other
without really knowing each other? I guess maybe if anything is fate it's
this."
Adrien had been really excited that she was Ladybug. He found himself nodding. 
"That's true," Adrien spoke, "But that experience still had to be really
traumatic. I'm pretty sure it was both our first time and," He bit his lip,
"That isn't something you can just take back or redo."
"No, your right," Nino agreed, "But I don't think she's going to regret it
being with you."
Adrien thought about how she had still wanted to kiss him after, "You think
so?"
Nino nodded confidently, "For sure. You two just need to talk about this and I
think you'll get it worked out."
Adrien sure hoped so as he finished eating his lunch and Nino moved on to other
idle chatter.
 
===============================================================================
 
Adrien didn't see Marinette the rest of the day, so on his way home he pulled
out his phone and sent a text.
'Patrol tonight?'
He hadn't expected to get a reply almost immediately.
'Sure :) tower, 9pm?'
'Sounds good'
He put his phone away, relieved that she wasn't avoiding him. If she didn't
want to talk they could just go on patrol like usual, but he hoped they could
work this out tonight. 
Chapter End Notes
     Hey guys back again with another update, sorry this one is kinda
     short! I think next chapter will be the last one so yay! A few people
     have commented about if I'll be talking about Mari going to the
     doctor and I will say I was never really planning to, so you can just
     imagine that going however you like. I know this fic has taken me
     forever to write but I like the way its turned out.

Chat sat on the tower, having arrived early. He didn't know exactly what to
say, but he would start with an apology. After all this whole thing had been
because he inhaled what the akuma threw at him instead of thinking to hold his
breath. Marinette didn't deserve to have to go through that just for his sake. 
He saw Ladybug as she approached and stood to greet her. She landed gracefully
onto the tower next to him and smiled. 
Chat opened his mouth a few times and twisted his hands together nervously. 
Finally he blurted, "I'm really sorry, for everything. And if you don't want to
talk about it we don't have to but I just- I'm so sorry."
"Chat, Adrien," Ladybug pulled him into a hug, "We can talk about it, I'm okay
really. This wasn't your fault."
Chat hugged her back tightly, "I feel so awful. You didn't have to do that for
me."
Ladybug pushed him back gently so she could see his face, "You protect me all
the time Chat. I knew what I was doing and I would do it again."
"I hurt you." Chat looked down at his feet.
Ladybug tipped his chin back up, "Actually about that, "A slight blush came to
her cheeks, "Alya said that shouldn't have hurt like that and so I'm going to
be seeing a doctor about it."
"I can pay for anything you want me to." Chat quickly offered. 
"Thanks, I'll let you know." Ladybug gave him a genuine smile. She sat down on
the edge and Chat followed suit. They spent a moment looking out at the city
lights. She moved her hand onto his and squeezed lightly.
"So what about you?" She turned to look at him.
"What about me?"
"I mean, at least I had a choice." She spoke quietly and watched for his
reaction.
Chat looked at where their hands were joined and frowned, not having really
viewed it that way. He shrugged. 
"It doesn't matter. I still did it." He said bitterly.
The two fell back into silence. 
"I don't regret it." Chat barely heard Ladybug say a few minutes later. He
looked up at her to see she was staring out into the distance.
"Why not?" He prompted equally as quiet. 
"If I didn't who knows what would've happened to you," She turned to meet his
eyes, "And we wouldn't be here now, Adrien." Knowing who each other was,
learning their respective crushes for each other, having kissed.
Chat turned his hand and linked their fingers together, "Yeah." 
Ladybug scooted closer and laid her head on his shoulder. He leaned back
against her. 
"So can I officially say Adrien Agreste is my boyfriend?" Ladybug asked in a
half joking, half hopeful voice.
Chat tried to keep the grin off his face as he replied, "Well I don't know,
maybe if Ladybug agrees to be my girlfriend?"
He wasn't ready for how she suddenly wrapped both arms around his neck and
kissed him excitedly. When he recovered he put his arms around her waist and
kissed back. 
Then, just as suddenly, she was standing and readying her yoyo.
"Hey what?"
"Catch me if you want more." She teased playfully as she jumped off.
Chat grinned and leaped after his girlfriend , chasing her around the city
until she finally let him catch her, dipping her into a kiss.
