Welcome to my new story! I hope you guys enjoy and review! Now... Chapter 1...

Adrien stared at the pigtailed girl in front of him, Marinette Dupain-Cheng! Just the very thought of her made him swoon!

Every day he would try to work up the nerve to ask her out, but every day he chickened out too. And every day Nino would punch him on the shoulder and say, "If you don't act fast, someone else will get her!"

Adrien held onto the one little hope that nobody would, and that he would be the lucky first! It wasn't until today that all he wished was that he had headed Nino's many many warnings, for at the end of class, when he was re-filling his backpack he heard something that killed his insides.

"Marinette, I've been meaning to ask you for a while now…" asked Nathaniel, "but would you like to go to the park with me today?"

Adrien hoped, Adrien prayed! That Marinette would say no. But Marinette was too kind and sweet to say no. It still hurt when he heard her say, "Of course! We can go now if you want!"

Nathaniel nodded and they left the classroom together.

Adrien gaped at the door. No. No no no no no no! This can't be happening! This cannot be happening! The very love of his life, Marinette, was going on a date! A DATE!

Nino tapped him on the shoulder, "I hate to say I told you so… but I was right man, you shouldn't have waited so long."

Adrien groaned and let his face fall on his desk.

This

Could

Not

Be

HAPPENING.

Nino patted him on the back and left saying things could be worse. Adrien groaned in response and mumbled, "I don't see how."

When everybody but Adrien had left the classroom, Plagg flew out from Adrien's bag and right in front of his face, snickering.

"Plagg," said Adrien lifting his head from the desk, "couldn't I have just a little bit of sympathy from you?" he asked with a frown

Plagg looked at him dead in the eyes and said, "Adrien, you are Paris' only hero! I bet if you actually tried, this girl, would fall for you."

Adrien put a determined face on and stood up triumphantly as if he had already won Marinette over, "You're right Plagg! But there's only one thing I can and need to do."

Adrien pulled out his binoculars.

He had chosen a tree to hide behind that was far enough away that Marinette and Nathaniel couldn't see, but close enough so he still had a good view.

Marinette, the love of his life, was on a date. And he need to get a good view of the whole thing.

It seemed like they were just chatting (no pun intended), but he saw Marinette laughing, so that meant, Nathaniel had made her laugh.

That was bad. Only he should be able to make her laugh.

The rest of the date was simple, talking and *shudder* laughing at each other's cheeky comments. By the end, they both seemed happy. Nathaniel more happy than Marinette.

He just hoped he still had a chance. Once during the date Marinette looked over and saw him, but he quickly changed his view to the sky to pretend he was bird watching or something.

The only little birdy he wanted to see was Marinette though.

Adrien paced in his bedroom talking to Plagg, who was eating cheese and barely listening to what Adrien was saying.

"-I mean, I'm Chat Noir! I save Paris from destruction, like, every other day! I should be able to ask someone out on a date."

"Mm hmm." said Plagg, petting a wheel of Camembert.

"Do you think she would like Chat Noir?" asked Adrien

"I don't see why not." Plagg lazily replied

"So you would be okay if I tried as Chat Noir?"

Plagg snapped his head up at that one, "W-well… I don't think-"

"Then it's settled! Plagg, Transform me!"

Next we're going to have Chat Noir meet Marinette. Even though Chat and Adrien are the same person and Adrien already knows Marinette. But what's a fanfiction if Chat doesn't visit Marinette?
