Master Fu starts to put his plan into action to help cheer up Adrien Agreste.  He smiles as he puts the pieces together.

     "Hello, yes I see!  Ok, right away sir!'' Natalie says into her phone. She hangs up, smiles and sends out a text.

    Back to Adrien...

   Adrien continues to frown and refuses to look at the pretty snow that falls outside his bedroom window. He does not even look up to speak to Plagg or Master Fu.

    "Adrien, I am sorry!"  Plagg says again.

    "Adrien, you are my friend and I am sure it is going to be okay," Plagg says.

    Meanwhile, Marinette gets a text message and checks to see who sent it. She smiles when she reads it.

    Natalie's text message

   Marinette I am sure Adrien could use some cheering up!

 Will you help? -Natalie

Marinette's text to Natalie

I will be glad to help Adrien!

 I am not sure what I can do, but I can certainly try!

-Marinette

Marinette begins to try to think of some way to cheer up Adrien. 

The owl flies off the roof flies into Marinette's room and lands at her feet. 

   Marinette sees it and stares at it in amazement.

   "Whoa, the owl is real!" Marinette says.

Once she gets over her shock about it she says, "I know just the thing to cheer up Adrien!"

Back to Adrien, he thinks Christmas is just another time for disappointments. Plagg feels sorry for him and says, "Here kid," as he offers him a piece of his cheese.

"Thanks, Plagg!" Adrien says and eats the cheese.

  Marinette puts on her scarf, hat, coat, and gloves. She then leaves to go see Adrien. She rings the bell, and  Natalie answers it, "Yes?"

   "Hi, I am here to see Adrien!" Marinette replies.

  "Go ahead, and come through the gate Miss Dupain-Cheng," Natalie says. She pushes in a button to open the gate for her.

    Marinette enters it, then walks up the steps to the house, and Natalie lets her inside. 

   Once inside, Marinette says, "Thanks so much Natalie!"  Next, she opens the door to Adrien's room and steps inside.  Plagg is hidden in Adrien's jacket.

  Natalie smiles, and thinks, young love is beautiful!  She gives them some privacy and goes to read a book.

  Marinette sits down in a chair.  "Hi, A-Adrien!" Marinette says.

   Adrien looks up at the sound of her voice.

  "Marinette, what brings you here on Christmas Eve?" Adrien asks.

"I came to cheer you up!" Marinette says.

"Let's play a game!" She suggests.

"What kind of game?" Adrien asks.

"If you had to choose between Kagami, Lila, or me, which one would you shove away, kiss, marry, and buy a present for?"  Marinette asks. She blushes a bit too.

  "I would shove away Kagami and Chloe, buy a present for Lila, and I would kiss and marry you!" Adrien answers and blushes the entire time.

 "Wh-What?  You would kiss and marry me?"  Marinette replies and blushes.

Adrien stands there and blushes from embarrassment. 

 Marinette thinks, this is my chance. She pulls him closer to her, and before he can register what is happening, she presses her lips against his. She pulls away and looks at him unsure how he will respond.

    "M-Marinette, you k-kissed m-me," Adrien says.

   "Yes, I did, " She says and winks at him.

     "You thought Christmas time was bad, and now you have been kissed by a pretty girl!  Haha,"  Plagg says to tease him.

    Marinette's jaw drops when she sees Plagg. She can not seem to find the right words to say now.

"Opps," Plagg says when he sees the surprised look  Marinette gives him.

"Plagg, she is not supposed to see you," Adrien says.

    "A-Adrien, you are Ch-Chat?"  Marinette says in surprise. She faints.

*Author's note:  Marinette is surprised her crush is Chat Noir.
