Marinette

"Oh Tiki what have I done?" Marinette sobbed, flopping herself dramatically onto her bed. "I've betrayed Adrien! How could I? I deserve punishment." Ever since the end of the Akuma attack, Marinette's mind had been racing far faster than she could keep up with. She couldn't seem to comprehend what had just happened. How could she have kissed Chat Noir?! It had been such a dreamlike experience. But at the sametime it had felt so real! and so… good Marinette guiltily admitted to herself. Tiki was pacing the room silently in flight, munching purposefully on a cookie to replenish her energy.

"Tiki!" Marinette implored, "say something! Help me! What do I do?" Tiki continued to pace back and forth. She seemed to be breathing a little heavily, but she made no otherwise indication that she'd heard Marinette.

"Tiki! How will I face Adrien after this? No, even worse how will I face Chat Noir? Tiki, that was my first kiss! I probably didn't even do it right.." Marinette fell silent again, brewing in her thoughts.

"Marinette.." Tiki said after a moment, "First of all, please calm down. You are making this a far bigger deal than it really is." Marinette sat up sharply.

"How could you say that, Tiki! You know my heart belongs only to Adrien!" Marinette gestured to one of the many posters of Adrien Agreste lining her pink bedroom walls. Tiki let out a tiny sigh.

"Marinette, how about you go take a relaxing bath and sort your thoughts," she suggested. Marinette sighed. She was a little exasperated with the way Tiki didn't seem to see the importance of the issue. It was almost as if she didn't care! However, the idea of soaking peacefully in a warm bath did suit her. With a sigh, Marinette stood up and collected a fresh change of clothes before heading into the bathroom.

As soon as Tiki heard the sound of water pouring into the tub she rushed over to Marinette's desk and sat anxiously on top of Marinette's phone. Any moment now… come on…

Adrien

Adrien flopped onto his prestinely made bed and stared dreamily up at the ceiling.

"Plagg!" He sighed softly, "I've done it! Plagg, I.. ladybug and I kissed!" He didn't expect Plagg to care or reply, but for once, Plagg actually seemed to be listening.

"Good for you!" Plagg said in his raspy little voice. He sounded genuinely pleased. Adrien sat up and stared at Plagg, incredulous. However, the moment was short lived, for it hadn't been two seconds when Plagg cried

"Camembert! I'm literally starving!" Adrien rolled his eyes. Plagg was back to his normal self.

"I just gave you some thirty seconds ago!" Adrien exclaimed, "Where'd it all go?" Plagg grunted, patting his stomach.

"I'm a growing kwami. And besides, you used up a bunch of my energy with all that kissing action.."

"Plagg! Stop! It wasn't like that!" Adrien threw a sock at Plagg. Plagg just sighed.

"Whatever. Point is, I need me some cheese."

"Fine fine," Adrien said, getting up and pulling another chunk from his secret stash. He was going to need to order some more soon.

"I wonder what Ladybug feeds her kwami," He muttered aloud, and for a moment he thought he heard Plagg whisper 'cookies,' but he couldn't be sure. Adrien handed the Camembert to Plagg, still thinking of his beautiful Ladybug.

"I really need to find out who the girl behind that mask is," he mused. Plagg ignored him, munching contentedly on his Camembert.

"I'm gonna take a quick rinse," Adrien said suddenly. Plagg merely nodded, and Adrien grabbed a fresh change of clothes and headed into his bathroom.

As soon as Plagg heard the water running steadily, he flew slowly over to Adrien's phone, which was lying in his bed. Plagg easily unlocked it, (he'd watched Adrien put in the password hundreds of times), and dialed Marinette's number. There was only one ring before Tiki's sweet voice came through excitedly.

"PlaggPlaggPLAGG!!!" Tiki cried. Plagg backed away from the phone a little.

"Woah Tiki," he said, "I know it's exciting but take a chill pill."

"I can't calm down!" She replied, "Ladynoir kissed!!" Plagg smiled at her joyfulness.

"Yeah," he said, "it's really great. honestly I've always shipped Marichat most though." Tiki sighed.

"Anyway, what took you so long to call me? You promised if anything like this happened you'd call as soon as possible!" Plagg paused.

"Well Adrien wouldn't stop talking about her!" He said in excuse.

"For that long?" Tiki questioned.

"Well also I had to have my fill of Camembert, of course!" Plagg added defensively. Tiki laughed.

"Oh Plagg, you never change!"

"Anyway," Plagg said, "how's Marinette holding up?"

"She's having trouble dealing with her emotions," Tiki told him, "I feel bad for her."

"Yeah. Me too," Plagg said, " Adrien is ecstatic."

"Naturally," said Tiki, "oh, I wish we could reveal their secret!"

"I know," Plagg agreed, "but don't you dare!"

"Of course not. Master Fu would kill us."

After a little while, Plagg was startled by the sound of the shower curtain pulling back.

"I gotta go," he whispered to Tiki, "boys shower quickly." Tiki didn't have a chance to reply before Plagg clicked 'end call. ' Plagg flew to the other end of the room, and sat innocently on the edge of Adrien's dresser.
