“So you’re Ladybug.”
It was a comment, a fact. But still she nodded and answered with a meek “yes” before looking away again. All her courage seemed to disappear as she looked from her city to her partner and crush. She was aware of her heart, rapidly beating as he took her hand and kissed it softly. Her eyes went to his once lebih and he smiled.
“Marinette…..wow.”
Her cheeks heated again at the awe and fondness in his voice. She felt her hati, tengah-tengah beat faster as he leaned into her.
“My Marinette is My Ladybug...”
He cupped her face, his thumb gently rubbing her cheek. She stared at him with what could only be hope and he nuzzled into her hair. He laughed softly and pulled back to look at her.
“I Cinta you.”
Her eyes blew wide and her hati, tengah-tengah raced.
“Y-you do..?”
He smiled and kissed her head.
“Yes. My brave, kind, and beautiful classmate is also my amazing, protective Lady. I couldn’t be happier than I am right now.”
“Be-beautiful?”
He smiled again and cupped her face.
“Very beautiful.”
He leaned in close this time, his eyes closing and she closed hers in time to feel his lips gently pressing to hers. Her mind exploded with Cinta and all she could think was Chat is Ciuman me...Adrien is Ciuman me!!! She shyly kissed him back and he pulled her closer. When they pulled back, a sweet smile graced her lips and he looked at her, completely smitten.
“I Cinta anda too, AdriChat.”
He laughed happily, both at the nick name and her returned affections. He held her close and pressed sweet, slow kisses to her face.
“I’m so happy.”
It was late when the two did part, but Adrien left with a full hati, tengah-tengah and a lovesick sigh. He made his way utama in silence, knowing Plagg would tease him for eternity when they reached home. But he also didn’t care. Tomorrow was a school hari and the idea of seeing Marinette again made his hati, tengah-tengah soar. With a happy, and loud, cry, he ran the rest of the way home.
When morning came, Adrien couldn’t get to school fast enough. He bounced in his kerusi, tempat duduk the whole ride there and bolted from the car when they arrived. A quick scan of the area showed no signs of her out front and he was about to resign himself to waiting. But then he heard her laugh; a joyous sound that made his hati, tengah-tengah race. He went into the courtyard and there she was. Coming down the stairs with Alya and smiling that oh so beautiful smile.
“Mari!!!”
He ran to her and when she looked at him, her smile melted him to his core. He picked her up and swung her around before placing her back on the ground. She let out a soft giggle and Alya watched on, amused. Adrien practically purred when she ran a hand through his hair and kissed his cheek with a blush on her own. He grinned and kissed her properly on the mouth.
