Adrien and I ate candy floss, barbecue, shakes, waffles, corndogs and burgers for dinner. All the while, watching the stars as they twinkled ahead of us.. after dinner, we both shared a 3XL popcorn as we watched a theatrical reenactment of the first fight of the three miraculous holders. It was funny how all the other members of the audience could barely reach Adrien's shoulder as we sat on the mats enjoying the show. It was.. amusing to see how people saw us as these powerful group of people, unbeknownst to them.. we were all teenagers.. well that is.. I assume Ladybug to be the same age as me and Chat Noir..

"Well.. that was fun.." Adrien stated as he dropped me off in front of my room. The both of us had snuck back in through the back door once more after a day full of fun

"Mmm.. told you, the best days are days well spent.." I replied with a grin. Reaching up to remove the black mask that obscured his features..

"Can.. I tell you something?" He questioned.. hesitation evident in his voice making me raise a brow as I nodded, taking my mask off as well before stacking his and mine before tucking it into the rucksack he handed over to me

"Fire Away Agreste.." I teased. He reached for my hands and I let him. His hands clammy as he sputtered, gazing at me with conflicted eyes. I stared at him, smiling softly to encourage whatever he has to say..

"I... can do it.. I can do it.." he muttered amping himself, bouncing on the soles of his feet as he exhaled, staring at me with eyes full of determination. I held back a laugh.. it was adorable.. until, his determination shattered, eyes wide as he withdrew his hands from mine.. "I- nevermind.." he deflated

"Would it be better if I turned around?" I questioned smiling at him softly and his brows furrowed. Puffing up his chest as he nodded. I faced away from him. And he sighed, pressing his forehead on my shoulder

"_(Y/N).." I hummed feeling him take a deep breath before moving away.. "I love you.." I felt my heart jump

".. I love you to-.." I replied.. he cut me off..

"-shh, just.. let me talk.." he took a deep breath in "I realized that you're not just a best friend to me.. the way you smile.. the way you laugh, how flustered I become by the little things you do.." I frowned.. I don't feel so good.. I felt anxious, I feel like.. I know where this was going. I gulped.. feeling the Miraculous Drawback make itself known as my mind muddled with the confession

"Adrien I-"

"Please.. let me finish.. I don't think I'll ever get enough courage to do this again.." I sucked in a breath, complying.. "I know that we've always been great friends for a really long time now.. but, if I'm being honest. I see you as someone much more than that.. I love you. A lot.." felt my heart beat faster, following along with it's beat was the pulsation of my temples. The migraines are rolling in, and fast. I took a deep breath trying to calm down, I swallowed the lump in my throat

"I.. No" I answered. Stiffening my legs as to not fall on my knees as I tried to control my heart and my breathing.. stupid Backlash.. I took a deep breath.. releasing slowly.. the pain was settling in faster, and my breathing and heartbeat remained erratic. But I have to answer.. I took a deep breath in, trying to form words that won't reflect the pain I was feeling right now.. "..please give me time to think about it Adrien.." I continued, unaware that the blond had already took off while I was steadying my breathing..

A/N: Drama. The next part is supposed to be another chapter entirely, but both were short so I compiled them.. also, I was stick at writing the date scene for like 4 weeks. Send help

I laid on my bed, clutching on both my head and stomach, I felt anxious, betrayed.. and I don't know which I truly felt about Adrien's confession. Heck, even Master Fu's Medicinal tea wasn't working..

"He doesn't see me that way.." Aira gloated as she floated in front of me. I glared, turning around to face away from her and she giggled.. "come on _(Y/N) think about it.. everyone but you, knew about it.. you're so stupid.." she giggled again and I laid on my stomach, grabbing my pillow and covering my head with it..

"Go away! You're not helping.." I heard my muffled shouts. Grimmacing at the hoarseness of my voice as my migraines got worse..

"Okay.. okay.. just transform.. it'll all be gone.." I shook my head, feeling as though transforming would bring me more problems..

"I don't want to.." I mumbled looking at her, feeling tears prickle my eyes as I curled myself up feeling pain from both my stomach and migraines.. Granted, I could've overeaten but, my migraines wouldn't let me go to the bathroom..

"You do your thing there then, I'll go and eat those candy poppers you and Adrien Bought.." I groaned. I wish pain killers work with this kind of pain.. but it doesn't. Trust me I tried.. "so strong.." Aira gloated as she threw a marshmallow into her waiting beak..

"Stop eating everything Aira.." I breathed out, groaning as I forced myself to sit up, pulling on my hair as the pain in my head grew

"Ayy.. 'm stowing ewergwey" Aira chirped as she stuffed another marshmallow into her beak

"What? You need to fly down south?" I gloated through gritted teeth and eyeing her through squinted eyes. Even the darkness of the room seemed to pulsate along with the vein on my temple. I could see the kwami roll her eyes

"I'm going to trick you into transforming." She grinned making me sigh in exhaustion

"You're not going to make me say it.." I grumbled..

"Say what?"

"I hate you.." I mumbled, plopping back down the bed with the intention of going to sleep..

"..you're trying to sleep away your pain?.. yeah goodluck with that.."

"Aira.. would the pain lessen if I take off my Miraculous?" She nodded

"But if you put it back on.. you'll experience quadruple the pain.." she chirped

"This is impossible. Uggh I hate it when this happens, stupid Drawback.." I glared at Aira who in turn gave me a grin

"Come on _(Y/N) just transform already.. You'll get to address the giant elephant in the room.." she sang tauntingly. And I knew fully well what she was talking about.

"No." I groaned out.. truthfully not wanting to deal with my feelings nor did I want to acknowledge Adrien's feelings. This has got to be a prank or something.. my head pulsated, feeling as though it would burst at any second at the thought.. "What Th-"
