I felt like after dealing with some recent personal stuff I wanted to make something along the lines with online romance, so what better way to do by using Adrien and Marinette in this situation! I feel like I can really get somewhere with this sort of idea, but I'm not entirely sure if I can make it entirely fit the characters all that well.

Oh well, I guess I'll just give it a try! I want to aim to have this as a one-shot but if it turns into an actual story I don't think I'd be making it that long...XD Anyways, enjoy reading!

Miraculous Ladybug (C) Thomas Astruc/ Zagtoon

Autumn leaves flew through the delicate branches, the season was changing, and the time for warmer clothing was approaching fast. Nature tended to never stop, it's what it did best, and it never stopped moving forward. It was something that everyone needed to keep up with, but it was hard for some.

It was especially hard for Marinette and Adrien.

Running a double life wasn't easy, and as much struggle as it was they managed to get through it all without harm. Yet while they were getting through school and their superhero lives at the same time, nature had devious plans for these two, something that would begin with a login screen.

"Come on Marinette, I assure you it's a great idea!"

"But Alya..." Marinette groaned, staring blankly at the screen. "What if this doesn't work? You always said I could just confront him..." She implied, before blushing hard as she thought about confronting her long time crush Adrien.

Alya shook her head with doubt. "No you don't girl, this will work I guarantee it. This way you can talk to him all you want without falling over or stuttering, you have the power of the keyboard and nothing else." Alya explained in assurance, waving her hand over the keyboard as if it were magical.

A huff of breath escaped Marinette's lips, her eyes looked at where she had to input her username. The cursor forever blinking as it waited for her fingers to make contact with the keyboard. All that Marinette could think about was how much of a stupid idea this was.

"What if he doesn't have an account on here? What's the point of this then?" She asked before sighing in thought about this idea. "Maybe I should just work up some courage then try to at least say hi to him in person..." She suggested, almost no hint of hope in her voice.

Alya shook her head firmly. "No, this will help you build up the courage to talk to him! I know it will help you two be together!"

Marinette sighed, before she glanced at the computer screen before inputting a username. "How's this name?" She asked, looking up at Alya who had been standing next to her the entire time.

The only response Marinette got out of Alya was a small snort and a chuckle. "Seriously? That's your username?!" She said, with seemingly high doubt it was a fitting username for her, but she shrugged and brushed her hand on Marinette's shoulder. "It's your name, go for it then!" Alya demanded enthusiastically.

After managing to creep past his father, Adrien was able to let Nino into his room without his father even noticing, he was glad Nathalie let Nino in too. Adrien fell into his seat before turning on his computers, feeling doubtful over this idea Nino had.

"I already like someone; I don't feel like going on this site will help me find her better." He implied, a hand resting on his chin.

Nino casually rested a hand on Adrien's desk, feeling much like Adrien's wingman in all this. "Don't worry about it dude, you'll totally find the girl you're looking for through this site. I guarantee it." He assured with a smirk and a wink.

Adrien hummed in thought. "If only he knew who I was really talking about..." Adrien thought to himself as he took a deep breath through his nose. "Maybe I might have a chance at finding her on here...who knows?"

He didn't let Nino push him to do it any further; he typed in his username and proceeded. Nino glanced at his username and almost chuckled with how hilarious it looked.

"Okay man, if you insist going with that name. I'm not sure if she'll find you that way, but by all means go ahead." Nino insisted, having doubts on the name.

Meanwhile, Alya had shown Marinette all she needed to know about the site. She waited for the name to pop up on her phone, and once it did, it made her wonder out of curiosity why he would pick such a name, but she shrugged her shoulders and pointed Marinette over to that name.

"Hey how about him? That looks like something he'd write." She implied, though not actually knowing why Adrien would pick such a name.

"BlackCat3? That can't be him, how does that look like something he'd write? It actually seems like someone's a huge fan of Cat Noir or that is Cat Noir on this site trying to find Ladybug or something." Marinette explained in slight disgust, imagining that guy trying to find her though this. It made her gag just at the thought of it.

Meanwhile, Nino had just gotten a text back stating Marinette's username. He nodded with a smile and texted Alya thanks before suggesting the name to Adrien, he wasn't sure about the username Marinette had chosen to use but he hoped Adrien wouldn't think of it in the wrong way. Even though Marinette seemed to act like Ladybug from time to time she certainly wasn't her.

Nino saw the name on screen as Adrien was scrolling aimlessly through countless other users on the site, before Nino stopped and saw Marinette's username. "Stop! Choose that one."

At first glance, Adrien thought that all of this was a terrible idea, Nino didn't even know Ladybug personally. But at the same time neither did he, he only knew as much as he could see, he didn't know who she really was, and for all he knew this username could just be a diehard fan wanting to be Ladybug.

Or deep down maybe this really was Ladybug.

"I don't understand...why would this girl I like you think you actually know personally and never told me about it until today is actually BugGirl1?" He questioned his friend; feeling like this was being pushed too far.

Adrien sighed before he moved the cursor over to the log out icon. "This was all a bad idea, I don't even know why I'm doing this, or why you let me do this...I can just see her in person!"

"Yeah..." Nino stated, but seeing how clueless Adrien was about Marinette liking him it seemed like the best way for them to talk to each other one on one without even knowing each other. "But this is a great way to talk to her without her knowing who she's really talking to!"

"How does that even work? She would just think she was talking to some stranger if that was the case! If only Ladybug knew that I was Cat Noir...but then what would happen...? I don't know...this is too complicated..."

"Look Nino, I appreciate you trying to help me find her but I think it's just best for me to tell her in person." Adrien assured his best friend, feeling like confronting Ladybug in person about it was the best idea, at the same time he tried to imagine it, it wouldn't go so well.

Nino shook his head firmly. "No, I'm not leaving until you add her...or until your father finds me. I feel like she would pick that sort of name."

"I don't know how you'd know that..." He replied sarcastically. "But I guess there's no harm in doing this..." He ended with a sigh, moving away from the log out icon and hovering over the name.

BlackCat3 has requested to chat with you, BugGirl1

"He sent me a chat request!?"

Lol I love what I did there at the end...Chat...XD But anyways, yes I make these chapters for my stories at random lengths now, that and I found it fitting to end the chapter there. So it looks like I'll be making a story out of this. Well, let me know what you think of it so far and I'll get to updating it within the next week or so ;)

Thanks for reading! ^^
