Saturday was passing along as Marinette spent her time working on her ball gown. The whole dress was red and sleeveless, but it had an black intricate design starting thickly at the chest and forking off at the belly button, slowly fading, stretching to the back and ending at the knees while the red continued to the floor. To go along with the dress she had long black gloves that stopped at the elbow. (Sorry if the description sucks, if you don't like it imagine your own, keep the color scheme tho)

She also had a little short sleeve lace shrug with a red clutch. Along with her usual black earrings and a red ring. She would have a matching black necklace but she couldn't find the right one as all the ones she saw just didn't work, or were to expensive. As she worked, music was playing and she would sing, hum, or occasionally dance along. Finally she had finished the dress it was about 6pm. She was going to try it on until her trap door burst open. A certain ombre burst through in tears repeatedly apologizing. Alya was latched to Marinette like a lifeline, causing the bluenette to giggle.

"Alya, it's fine I over reacted. Don't worry about it. Now help me test out my dress." Mari giggled.

"Dress? Why do you need such a fancy dress?" Alya asked, taking notice of the dress I had just finished.

"Oh...um...Adrien's dad is having a ball for designers so Adrien asked me to go with him. I think he had to much trouble for me to go he couldn't even try to invite you or Nino." Marinette explained nervously.

"Makes sense! It's so gorgeous! You gotta try it on girl! Oh and I can help you with make up the night of the ball!" Alya squealed. Marinette nodded excitedly and went to the bathroom to put on the dress, along with the accessories.

Inside the bathroom Marinette put on the dress. but before she put on he gloves she put makeup over her day old 2nd degree burn. Then she put on the shrug and the ring, grabbed the purse, and exited the bathroom.

"OH MY GAWD GURL YOU LOOK AMAZING! LIKE GURL! GURL! GUUUURRRRLLL!" Alya screamed. Marinette simply giggled in reply.

"Gurlgurlgurl, we gotta do a test dance! Slow song or fast song? Or both?"

"Ummmm, how about both?"

"Ok slow song first....what song tho?" Alya asked.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The two girls danced together until 10pm when Alya got a call from her mom telling her to go home. Marinette was about to go change when a certain leather clothed hero hopped in.

"I thought she would never leave! I'm glad you two made up and all, but I was getting impatient! But meow that I have you attention Bugaboo, you look Purrfect My Lady!" Chat said. with a smirk.

"Wow Chat how rude! Spying on a girl for hours, busting into her room without knocking, immediately busting out the puns and flirts, and to top it all off looking at the dress you weren't supposed to see until Friday! I'm disappointed in you Agreste!" Marinette said, crossing her arms, maintaining a glare. Chat's ears drooped and his tail hung low as all this was pointed out.

"I'm so sorry Marinette...I will leave now... see you at school." Chat said sadly. He started going to the exit when two arms wrapped around his torso, and he felt/heard Marinette giggling on his back.

"I was just kidding Chat! Though I am slightly disappointed that I won't be able to surprise you now. But it's ok." A smirk played onto Chat's face (as well as a blush, but he'd never admit it) as the words flew out of her lips and into his ears.

"Marinette? Why do you still call me Chat even though you know who I am and no one is around us?"

"Because I wouldn't want my parents to over hear and if I call you Chat when you're in hero form I won't slip up and call you Adrien in public, silly kitty!" Marinette replied, unwrapping herself from Chat.

"I need to go change out of this, I'll be right back." Marinette smiled and turned to go.

"Wait! I don't get to dance with you?"

"You'll dance with me on Friday."

"Ok, ok, fine, just hurry up!" Marinette just giggled as a response and went t the bathroom.

When she came back out in sweatpants and an old sweatshirt, she put the dress back onto the mannequin and noticed Chat was no where in the room.

"Did Chat leave already Tikki?" Marinette asked the kwami that was eating cookies on the desk.

"Um...y-yeah he left a little while ago, said he had...um....a photoshoot? Yes! That's it! A late night photoshoot...because his father had to, um, get the right lighting?" Tikki stuttered out, not meeting Marinette's eyes. But before she could question the Kwami she was engulfed. By what? A bone crushing hug, one that trapped her arms to her side. She let out a squeal and bite her tongue from further noise. She looked down to see Chat was Adrien now.

"Adrien, let go." Marinette replied firmly, trying not to let her pain show.

"Why should I?"

"Because I asked?"

"Wrong answer." A sinking feeling filled the bluenette.

"You know, don't you?" She felt a nod against her neck. The arms left her, along with their warmth. She looked into Adrien's emerald eyes, and noticed them on her left arm. To which she sighed and took off the sweatshirt (she had a shirt on underneath) she was wearing and wiped off the make up.

"Do you have some sort of  ointment for that?" Adrien asked, before Marinette could say anything.

"I-um, no. I don't know how to get a hold of some without being suspicious." Adrien simply nodded and pulled some out of his pocket.

"Figured as much." With that he gave it to Marinette. She began to apply it to the burned skin.

"So, um, how did you know that the Miraculous didn't heal it?"

"I haven't always gotten away scratch free like you have. With you having good luck, me bad luck. I guess your good luck is what keeps my injuries from being too serious, my bad luck must have been with you on the burn. But the thing about Miraculous it's only sometime it doesn't heal everything. But when it doesn't it makes it somewhat better, that would have been a third degree burn had the miraculous not helped. Now that ointment will help but you'll still need make-up on that arm by Friday."

"I-I um...t-thanks Adrien." Marinette blushed and stuttered, putting the ointment down.

"Oh? I thought the blushing and stuttering was over princess?" Adrien smirked. This caused a switch to flip in Marinette, blush fading for a smirk to replace it.

"Oh, don't get cocky now kitty, I was just blown away that a mind as dense as yours, with a skull equally as thick could utter a single word that seemed logical without a pun." It was Adrien's turn to blush as he avoided eye-contact. Enjoying seeing ADRIEN AGRESTE like this Marinette implored this new ability. She grabbed the collar of hi shirt and bough him close, so close they were only centimeters apart. She leaned in towards his ear and whispered," Cat got your tongue?" Adrien's face a deep red, he was interrupted by Plagg who was sitting with Tikki.

"Careful sweetcheeks, otherwise you'll be the cause of Adrien's little friend's arrival again!" Marinette looked at Plagg with confusion until she realized what he meant while Adrien groaned (not sexually) at Plagg. The Bluenette's blush returning, the bond's somehow getting worse.

"A-again? I've done it before?"

"U-um...."

"Explain!"

"Eheheh w-well, um...you see...you know how I w-was um, l-late to the Stargazer scene?"

"HOW DID THAT CAUSE ANYTHING?!"

"Um...I realized that it was y-you in the um *GULP* s-skin t-tight s-suit and t-the pun didn't h-help e-either. I realized I sound like a perv, don't I?"

"OH MY GOD ADRIEN YOU PERVERT!!! YOU HAVE A PUN FETISH OR SOMETHING?! OH SWEET JESUS ADRIEN FREAKING AGRESTE KNOWS I'M THE ONE IN THE SKIN TIGHT SUIT...AND HE'S THE ONE IN THE LEATHER SUIT...I KISSED YOU!!! OH MY GOD I KISSED ADRIEN AGRESTE!!!" Marinette whisper-shouted. This sudden realization dawned both of them as they finally realized. Both getting redder by the second.

"Good job Plagg you broke them!"

"Wait Mari, when did you kiss me? Why don't I remember this?"

"You were under Dark Cupid's control!"

"I asked My Lady for an autograph, she stuttered around ME, YOU obsessed over ME like hoe I do with YOU!"

"WHat? Do as in still do?"

"Um..."

"Ok, ok, calm down, I think we are even, lets try not to think about it before our minds explode." Marinette said as she collapsed onto the bed," it's late you should go."

"Yea, but I'm gonna need some camembert first, Plagg needs to recharge." Adrien said, blush subsiding slightly.

"Ok, be quiet, don't let anyone see you" Adrien nodded and went downstairs, after a few minutes came back up and transformed. He bid his farewells and left.

"Tikki what am I gonna do?"

"What do you mean?"

"I'm starting to fall for a *yawn* pervert" With that she fell asleep
