Ah. Valentine's Day. A day for love, romance, affection, love... Wait. I already said that, didn't I. Heheh.
Anywho, I know today will be the perfect day to....

Aquire Ladybug's and Chat Noir's Miraculous!
Cause this Valentine's Day, I won't be treating myself to love, but to heartache. Imagine, ALL the broken hearts around Paris, the so called City of Love, becoming a City of Akumas.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

-Marinette-

"Okay, Alya. I'm gonna do it. I gonna walk up to him and ask him to be my Valentine."
"Okay. There he is." Alya said, pointing behind me, to which I jumped, landing into her arms.
"AdRiEn!?"
.....
He wasn't in sight.
"Alya..."
"Awwe, sorry Scooby, your snack isn't here yet." She laughed at her joke before setting me down in my seat.
L

ila walked in the room.
"Hey, girls. hello Mari~."
I blushed from the way she said it.

Damn. Why does she have to be so cute?
I loved Adrian first... But Lila... But Adrian... But Luca...
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!?!?!?!
Calm down, Marinette.

Lila sat by us as we talked. It was strangely calm until i felt her hand on my knee. Her hand was open. I looked at her, to which she gave me the puppy eyes. I sighed and slid my hand into hers. She smiled with a blush, leaning on me and placing her chin on my shoulder.

-Adrian-
I was in the car, being driven to school by Nathalie. I continued to think of what I heard the other day.

How long has she liked me?
The whole time?
I wonder if it hurt her that I never noticed her that way...
Agh. Why am I so clueless?
I need to make it up to her.

I looked up through the window and seen a flower shop next to a candy store.
"Huh. Convenient. Nathalie, could we stop by there. There's someone I need to get things for."
"Chloe? Or perhaps that Marinette girl?"
"Well, make that two people." I chuckled, almost forgetting about Chloe.

Woops.
I know Chloe can be, herself, but she's always been there so I can't NOT get her anything.

Nathalie gave me a smile in the rear view mirror as she turned and parked on the curb, even getting out with me.
"Alright. Let's make this quick. Don't want to be late on a special day like this." She smiled.
"Of course." We headed in Both shops, gathering things.
"Let me guess, for my dad?"
"I... Um... Well..." She was blushing.
"It's ok, Nathalie. I know you like my dad. I'm fine with it. I'm sure one day he'll move on and see you clearly."
Nathalie then shedded a tear.
"I-I didn't mean to make you cry."
She wiped it away quickly before giving me a hug.
"Thank for that, Adrian."
I smiled and hugged her back.
"Come on. Let's go."

-Lila-
"So, any plans for today?" I asked the girls.
"Well, Jewelica and I are going to have a private date at my place. Candle lit dinner and a couple of movies." She smiles brightly.
"Yeah..." Jewelica blushed, giving a shy smile.
"Well me and Nino are going to that new pizza place, then we're going by (ice cream match maker. help me here)."
"Awww. So sweet." Marinette said.
"What about you, Marinette? You have three admirers. Are you going on three dates?" Rose asked. Everyone looked at her.
"I... um... I haven't though of it... It's hard. I don't know if I should choose one, or be fair and try all of them out..."
I looked at her hand, her grip had tightened.

Mari...
You know I love you
And I want you happy...
So.....

"You should... You should choose Adrian..."
Everyone gasped. Guess they were expecting something else.
"Lila?" She looked at me.
"You've loved him longer... It's only fair that I don't interrupt that." I started, to get up, but Marinette disnt let go of my hand.
"Lila. I'm not going to do that to you. Yes I love Adrian, but... I... I also love you, too!"
I paused. I didn't know how to react this. She said out loud, in front of the girls. My heart skipped a beat.

-Marinette-

I can't believe I said that?!?!
I'd never say it to Adrian but...
I was able to say it to Lila?
God my heart is beating fast...

"Now I'm embarrassed." I cover my face.
"..." Lila was quiet. I peaked up at her, and before I knew it, we were falling over and she was kissing me behind the desk. The girls watched, of course.

Damn... I wonder how Adrian's kiss feels... Oh Lila...

We kissed for about thirty seconds before we stopped.
"I love... You, too Mari..." She said between breaths.
"I know..." We got up.
"But you know I can't just choose you... Even if I melt from your kisses..."
"I know... I'll respect that. When and if you are able to kiss him, I'll respect who you choose..."
"After a kiss like that, I'd be hooked." Rose whispered but everyone heard, then laughed.

After out laugh, Adrian walked in followed by a Happy Chloe with flowers and chocolates.
"Definitely from Adrian... Wait. He still has flowers and chocolates... Wait. He's coming our way?"
"Girl. He's looking at you!" Alya pointed out.
"Shhhhh!" Rose shushed us.
"Hey, Marinette."
"Adrian. You see to good it's. I mean good you to see it's. I mean.... It's good, to see you."
"It's goods to see you too. Um... Girls. Could I have a minute with Marinette , please?" Everyone but Lila moved to different spots.
"Lila. It's ok..."
"No. She's fine."
"Oh. Um... Ok."
He sat beside us.
"Marinette Dupain-Cheng... The other day, I accidentally heard you girls talking."

What...

"You were talking about who you had crushes on."

How much did you hear?
How much did you here?!
HOW MUCH?!

"I heard you had crushes on Luca..."

That's one....

"A crush on Lila..." Looks over at her. She looked nervous just like me, probably for me too.

That's two!
Does he know about...

"And me."

......
Tuez-moi ... tuez-moi maintenant, s'il vous plaît!(1)

"Marinette? Hey Marinette?" Adrian and Lila waved their hands in my face.
"Huh?!"
"You ok?" He asked.
"I don't know... You know my biggest secret! Hehehe hehehe!"
"How do you accidently overhear something." Lila asked.
"Well Nino stopped me before I walked out of the school and I over heard the conversation. I'm sorry, but I had to let you know I heard."
"Yeah..." Marinette looked down.
"Is this where you tell me you don't like me and can't go out with me, things get weird so we stop talking and basically stop being friends?" I looked up at his green eyes. He then laid the flowers and chocolates in front of me.
"No. This is where I apologize, and ask if I can make it up to you, by being your Valentine, and taking you out for dinner."

Did... Did he just ask me out on a date?
Am I dreaming?
A prank?

"Mari..." Lila whisper.
"This is where you say... Yes." She didn't want to say that. It was clear to me.
"If you already have a date we can reschedule it..."
"NO! I-I mean, no. I'm free."
"Lila. I'm sorry if i ruined any plans you had with Mairnette."
"N-no. It's alright, Adrian. It wasn't anything big so it's fine. I'll hang with the girls. You just treat her nice or you'll have me to deal with, pretty boy." I giggled, before he did, too.
"Okay. If you say so. Marinette."
"Yes, Adrian?"
"How does 5:00pm sound?"
"G-g-great."
"Alright. I'll send you a text beforehand."
I just nodded, before he walked to Nino. I slid into the floor. All the girls huddled around me in the floor, and Lila, pouting.
"WHAT HAPPEN!" They asked in unison.
"Dee da do mo da ju at "
"What?"
Lila sighed.
"Adrian knows about marinette, her three crushes, apologized, and asked her on a date at 5 as an apology."
"Yeah! Wait, Lila what about your plans..." Jewelica started before Lila interrupted her.
"It's fine. It wasn't that big anyway. Besides, I did say I'd respect Mari's decisions. So, now she can finally get the date she's always wanted. Time to celebrate..."
I got up and grabbed her by the cheek.
"Ow ow! Mariiiii!"
"What did i say? We are gonna have a date, even if it has to be another day. Its only fair." I let go. She rubbed her cheek.
"Mari..." She hugged me tightly.

There it is again.
The worried soul.
The negativity has grown.
Hmmmm.
Is it enough to get my Valentine gift?
We'll see.
Soon. Very soon, my dear.

-Lila-

Marinette is getting ready for her date. I'm currently at her place because she needed someone to feel in for her at the bakery. Lots of people thought her parents' place was the perfect place to get the best treats for their Valentine's. So I'll be helping. Yay...
I could hear footsteps coming down the stairs. Believe me when i said my jaw dropped.
"Wow. Mari... You look so... so... I-i don't know how to describe just how beautiful you are."
"Th-thank you, Lila, but maybe close your mouth, you're starting to drool." She giggled. I blushed and wiped away the drool, a bit embarrassed.
"But, seriously, do you think he'll like it?"
"No. He'll love it. I sure do, babe."
"Okay, Foxy. Keep it down. Don't need my parents hearing that."
I blushed.
"Foxy?"
"Oh, yeah. I was thinking back when you were Volpina. You looked like a fox, so Foxy seemed like a good nickname."
I smiled and blushed.
"I like it. Sounds like you're flirting with me when you say it~."
She blushed.

Ding!
Someone walked in. We went to the front to see Adrian, dressed up nicely, and the brute bodyguard with him.
"Lila?"
"I know. I said I'd hang with the girls but they had plans and Mari's parent's needed help so I volunteer."
"Wish you didn't have to work on this day."
"Its okay. You just have a great time with Mari." I faked a big smile.
I hugged her, and whispered into her ear.
her parent's of course wanted pictures. They finally got away and left.
"Okay. Work time... At least I'll be able to keep my mind off of it if I stay busy."

Yes. It grows.
I think its time to test out her abilities.

Fly my little Akuma, and evilies her!

The akuma flew to the shop. Lila had just stepped out for a breathe of fresh air. She sees the akuma as she noticed it was after her. She grabbed a trash lid and smacked it.
"Did I..."

No... I'm not in control?!
NO! Fight! Come on Lila!

You think you can fight my control?
It useless. My akuma has already gotten you.
Give in, Lila! Where's that negativity you use to have?

I... Over came it, Hawkmoth!
And I'll overcome you too!

The darkness started to slide off me
Hawkmoth sounded surprised as I began to regain my control

At least, that's what I thought...

Why don't you just stop
fooling yourself?
She never love you like she loves him
The one want doesn't want you!

You... You bâtarde(2)
I felt the tears fall before i was swallowed by the darkness of the akuma.

M...ar...i....

BOOM!
There was a crash in the city.
Within minutes, Ladybug and Chat Noir was there.
"Akumatized. Who is it this time?"
As the smoke cleared, a feminine figure stood in a small crater.
"Wonder what they're problem is?" Chat asked.
"Probably a broken heart."
"True Malady. On a day like this, it happens everywhere."
the figure turned towards them.
"I... am Negativila." She stomped as everything turned black and white. The ground was black and the buildings white.
Chat and Ladybug immediately felt pain. They jumped onto some cars which were white.
"What was that? She just changed everything and then it was like pain all over."
"Chat look where she's standing."
"A sewer lid?"
"Yes. Look at the color."
"White."
"Yes, and these cars?"
"Also white?"
"And the ground where we were standing?"
"Black? I don't see where you're getting... Oh. Wait I get it now....?!"
She turned everything again, just opposite. Everything that was black is white, and vise versa. We hopped back to the ground.
"Ok. We need to figure out where the akuma is?"
"Maybe that hat... Shield thing?"
"Alright. We need to get it away from her."
He nodded as they moved in.

Her body was half white, half black. As the duo charged, she turned so the black half would be hit by Chat's staff, sending pain up his arms.
"What the-? I never touched..."
"No but it seems even our weapons can't touch it either."
"Okay. We might need some luck here, Malady."
"Agreed. Lucky Charm!"
A paint brush fell into her hands.

Guess how Bugaboo and Kitty are gonna work with this Lucky Charm

"So, color me surprised, but I don't see how we can paint a picture of victory with this." Chat smirk.
Ladybug flipped back to dodge Negativila's shield smack, which caused Chat to get smacked into a black spot.
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
Ladybug used her yoyo to pull him out.
"Chat. We have to get to the school's art room." She swung them over the building. After passing the next building, everything else was in color again.
"So her powers can only go so far." Chat stated.
"Yeah so we can set up our trap and know when she's there." Ladybug told him.

Go after them! Don't let them escape!

"Yes... Hawk Moth." Negativila followed the heroes.

Ladybug and Chat hid, waiting for their prey. Things turned black and white again. As Negativila walked in, she noticed the floor was randomly black and white everywhere.
"Que diable?" (3)
Ladybug kicked her from behind, causing her to stumble in and out of spots, hurting her with every black spot.
"So even you get hurt by the black spots."
"Does it matter? Your Miraculous will soon be mine!" Steps on black before snapping her fingers, switching colors. Ladybug felt it but Chat extended his staff and pulled her out. They ran upstairs before Negativila landed in front of them and tackled them into the art room. She then started using her shield to smack them around.

Now! Take their Miraculouses!

"Now Ladybug!" Chat yelled. She turned as Ladybug threw paint on her, and from her affects, it was black, damaging her, causing her to drop the shield. Ladybug kicked it to Chat as he used "Cataclysm," to destroy it.
The Akuma flew out.
"Time to De-evilise!"
She catches it and releases a with butterfly.
"Bye bye butterfly. MIRACULOUS LADYBUG!"
Every bit of damage that was done was fixed instantly.
Negativila turned into Lila.

-Lila-
"Agh... My head. Ladybug? Chat Noir? Oh no. I was akumatized!"
"Was, Lila." Ladybug said.
"I'm sorry... I couldn't control my emotions... And to make it worse, Hawk Moth taunted me..." I held myself, squeezing my arms. Ladybug knelt down and lifted my chin.
"It's alright, Lila. It's not your fault. Hawk Moth, he knows what to do to make his targets upset. But you was still fighting. I noticed some attacks missed cause the swings were slower. You're a strong will girl. Don't forget that."

BEEP BEEP BEEP

"

Gotta go." They ran out.
"I'm strong willed?"

I took a taxi back to Mari's and finished the afternoon and evening. I went to Mari's room after I finished. I waited for her, hoping I didn't hurt her during the incident. She got home about 9:00pm. I heard her climbing the stairs, so I turned out he lights. When she climbed up, I turned on the lights, revealing a small table with macaroons on it.
"Surprise." I said, wearing a simple but nice dress.
"Lila? What is this?"
"Well, I was gonna take you out but after Adrian's date I figure you'd be bummed out. So I..." She hugged me.
"I heard you were akumatized again."
"Oh. I didn't hurt you did I?"
"No. I seen some of the camera feed from the news."
"I didn't ruin your date did I?"
"No sweetie. I didn't see it til after we left the restaurant." She smiled and sat down with me on her bed.
"So, did you make these yourself?"
"Yeah... I need help from your mom though, hehehe." We laughed.
We ate a few before a finally asked.
"So, did you kiss him?"
"....."
"Jesus Christ, you did?!"
"I DIDNT SAY-"
"Oh my God! How was it?!"
"It was... Different."
"Different?"

That doesn't tell me if it was good or bad!!!
Details!!!

"It was nice. His lips were soft, but it was different for when you kiss me... It just made things even more complicated..."
"Oh... Well... Luca sent you this in the mail..."
It was a rose, box of chocolates and a letter, basically tell Marinette that he liked her and understood her crushes on Adrian and I, and said if it didn't work, he'd be there.

"He's so sweet."
"Don't tell me you're gonna kiss him now."
"N-no! I wasn't thinking it!"
"Sure."
She shoved me playfully before I shoved back. We grabbed each other, bumping into the radio, causing it to play slow music.
"Lila, may I have this dance?"
"Yes, you may, Mari."
We stood in the middle of the room, as we wrapped our arms around each other.
"Lila... Thank you."
"Heheh. For what?"
"Everything. Since I helped you that day, you've been by my side the whole time."
"And you mine."
Our foreheads touched as we slowly opened ours eyes, staring into each other as if our souls reached out and touched one another.

Wow... My heart feels... I don't know...
My breathing is...
Like I literally ran a mile...
Mari... You feel it too, don't you?

"Mari~..."
"Y...yes, Lila~?"
"Do you... Feel he same way~?"
"I... I believe s-so~"
"Mari... I-I feel if we kiss... We might..."
"Lila. It's ok. It won't go that far."
"Promise?"
"Promise."
The lights shined in our eyes as they closed, and our lips connect. We softly kissed for about 5 minutes, before making out. In 10 minutes, our legs were weak so we made way onto her bed. She rolled on top of me, kissing me ruffly.

Oh no! This... This must be all the lust from the date
She's never been so in...control
Damn it Mari...
So gooooood~

We continued to make out, until Mari leaned up, breaking the kiss. We huffed and looked at each other.

"Mari..."
"Lila..."
"We... We should change into our pjs... Ya know?"
"Y-yeah..."

We got off of each other, and changed. I tried not to stare art her. After getting dressed, she put the macaroons in a mini fridge, and turned out the lights before we laid down in her bed together.
"Lila..." She said in the dark before whispering something in my ear.
We kissed a bit more and happily fell asleep.
