"Marinette!" shouted Marc. "You made it!"
Mylene, Alix, Rose, Juleka, Nino, Alya, and Zoe were waiting in seats in Room 33 that afternoon.
Marinette smiled. Nath and Marc beamed and both gestured for her to sit down. Marinette was crossed between the idea of them both liking her. . .
No way, said Marinette. For a million reasons. . .
"SO!" said Nathaniel, calling the meeting to order. "You have all joined us here for one reason. To support Adrienette!"
They ripped their jackets in half and Nathaniel was Adrienette Vice President, meanwhile Marc was President.
Alya was Founder. Of course.
Marc continued. "So, we've been observing two specific people to merge into Adrien and Marinette's character. They're clearly in love, yet their love is. . ."
Nathaniel held up a dramatic poster that read Forbidden.
"Who is it?" asked Alix.
'Well, we're waiting for one more special guest to help us lecture you all about forbidden love," explained Nath. "He should be coming any moment. . ."
"Nath- window-" croaked Marc.
Cat Noir was standing at the window.
Marinette spit out the water that Rose had given her. "Cat Noir?! What does he know about forbidden love?!"
"The same as you, Princess," snickered Cat Noir. Alya shrieked. ("PRINCESS?! WHAT ELSE DO YOU KEEP FROM ME, M?!?!?") He winked. Marinette's eye twitched. "So, who's gonna get their match made?"
"Marinette and Ad-" started Nath.
Marinette interrupted, "BUTTERCUP!"
Cat Noir grinned. "Ah, yes." He took up a high, angry voice. "Dear Buttercup! Ever since I met you, I've had three suns in my heart!"
"Oh-" Marinette growled. "Do we really-?"
Marc and Nath nodded.
Cat Noir whispered, "Oh, soothe me, Buttercup!"
Marinette socked him in the arm. "Don't. Say. Anything."
Cat Noir grinned that grin he grins. "Fine, Princess."
"Okay, so, Cat Noir, what do you know about forbidden love?" asked Marc. "What are some of your exploits containing forbidden love with Ladybug?"
Cat Noir uttered, "Pick a number one through four-hundred-seventy-eight."
Nino yelled, "Two-sixty-nine!"
Alix snapped, "Four-hundred-seventy-seven!"
Mylene answered, "Ten?"
Rose screamed, "ONE HUNDRED!!"
Everyone else facepalmed.
"Let's see. . ." Cat Noir put his finger on his chin. "I'll just tell you about Despair Bear, I guess. We had de-evilized the villain, and Ladybug was heading to transform back. I almost went in with her to learn who she was, but didn't, 'cause I love her so much. She just doesn't love me back. . .but recently, we had come back from saving me in another time, and we had kissed, but I told Ladybug that I didn't remember, because she knew it would be a burden."
