Y/Ns Pov

"Y/n, are you okay? You are always up before me. Is it from the accident last night? Oh no, did you actually get hurt, and my miraculous ladybug not fix it? No no no,this is all my fault. How can I protect all of Paris if I can't even protect my own sister." Marinette says while shaking me slightly to wake me up as she slowly begins to curl into a ball the more she speaks. "Marinette, calm down. I'm perfectly fine. I just forgot to set my alarms," I begin to reach for her face and cup both cheeks with my hands and don't ever doubt your ability to be Ladybug. You are amazing. Whether I get hurt or not does not change the fact that you are an amazing ladybug who always saves the day!" I wiped the tears that began to fall from her eyes and pulled her into a hug. I begin to giggle "now, how is Marinette up at 7:30 in the morning!" I say, hoping it will change the subject and make her feel better.

Marinette: "I wanted to wake up early to check on you and make sure you are okay after yesterday."

Y/N: "Well, if me getting hurt gets you up earlier, maybe I should take more risks." *I giggle*

Marinette: "Don't joke like that Y/n, I don't know what I would do if I lost you! I'm so glad Cat was there to save you."

Y/N: "Yeah so am I." *I look to the side* "While were on the subject of Cat Noir I have something to ask you."

Marinette: "Sure, what is it?"

Y/N: "Actually, I should probably tell you something before I ask."

Marinette: "Y/n just spit it out already!"

Y/N: "So last night, the real reason I forgot to set my alarms was because Cat Noir stopped by to make sure I was alright. We hung out on the patio for a tiny bit, and I hugged him, but not one of my buddy hugs"

Marinette: "Oh my God. Did you give him one of the Y/n specials!!! You know whoever you do that to is bound to fall in love with you! Wait. Is that what you wanted to talk to me about?"

Y/N: *fake giggles lightly* "haha yeah, you see. Last night I might have called him sexy, and then tricked him into admitting he find me attractive only for me to admit that I also find him attractive, and then I might have given him my special hug and then told him to leave. Im really sorry Mari if I crossed any lines! I wanted him to stay longer, but I wasn't even going to continue with a hug without talking with you first!"

Marinette: "Well, at least we know he has a type."

*We both laugh while looking at our similarities*

Y/N: "So you're not upset?"

Marinette: "No, how could I be? I'm glad he makes you happy. Cat Noir is a good guy. Me not liking him has nothing to do with him being him, but everything to do with me being me. He stopped his flirting a while ago after I kept denying him. Of course, he keeps calling me cute pet names, but he hasn't hardcore flirted with me in a while. Besides, you already kissed him."

*She nudges me in the side with her elbow playfully while I begin blushing, and she starts to giggle*

Y/N: "That doesn't count! I was breaking him from dark cupids influence. It could've easily been you doing it, too, if you weren't sick in bed!"

Marinette: "You made an amazing temporary Ladybug, and no one even noticed you weren't me."

Y/N: "Yeah, including Cat Noir. He thought Ladybug kissed him. Not me."

Marinette: "Girl, dont even try that. Only true loves kiss could free him from the spell. So even if he thought it was me, the universe knew it was you."

Y/N: "Are you sure you're fine with it? I mean, assuming he would even want to be with me or try something with me."

Marinette: "Yes, Im fine with it. He would have to be beyond stupid to not want to be with you. Besides, now that you gave him the Y/n special, we both know he is locked in."

*We both start giggling and climb off my bed and start getting ready for school*

Adriens Pov

"Plagg claws in," I say as I jump through my window, landing on my feet and immediately walking over to my bed and flopping down on it. Plagg flies straight to his cheese cabinet, noticing Adriens mood but deciding to have a few slices before opening up that can of worms.

After eating a few slices, Plagg flies over to my head and says, "What happened to being head over heels in love with Ladybug? Y/n has been here the whole time, and you have yet to notice her before tonight. So, what's changed all the sudden?" I could tell he was a bit exhausted with this whole situation, and quite frankly, so am I. "I do love Ladybug Plagg, but she will never love me back. You know I stopped flirting with her a while ago. Kagami told me to change my targets, so maybe I should. Name one reason why Y/n wouldn't be a good new target?" I say while looking at him, waiting for an answer.

"For one, Y/n knows you, you as Adrien. You spend more time with Y/n as Adrien than anyone else. If you spend as much time with her as Cat Noir, she will sure start to see the similarities. Not to mention, Y/n may act like she doesn't care, but she still has feelings. If you're just using her to get over Ladybug, I will not be a part of it. Y/n has not only been a good friend to you but also a good mediator when it comes to your father. And if your feelings for her are true, then I'm honestly still upset with you for just now realizing how special he is and what she brings into your life."

I could tell Plagg was fed up with me. I never thought of it before now, but all those times Y/n was spending time with me, she was also spending time with Plagg in a way. I think he actually developed feelings for her. "I'm not using her Plagg, I would never. Y/n is too good of a girl for me to use. But I can't help but feel that maybe the constant rejection from Ladybug and the friendship between me and Y/n is clouding my judgment. But then again, what I was feeling for her tonight was anything but friendly." I plant my head into my pillow and let out a groan, "well, I guess well find out tomorrow. Y/n is still coming over to help you with math, you can see if your feelings change when youre with her as just Adrien as they did with you being Cat Noir. Now, get some sleep, this whole situation is exhausting," Plagg says.
