hey kid,are you sure you want to do this?

I have no choice Plagg!

You do, you just don't give yourself any other possibility.

If something else happens to Marinette I couldn't be able to forgive myself.

Plagg got a shill. He could feel it. Adrien's motivation. The cold feeling. He, a thousand year old god, felt a shill. He was intimidated, no scared, by a mere human. He sighed, there was nothing he could do at this point. He looked at Adrien and noded. He was ready to brake the rules.

Chat Noir jumped in the night sky. He knew this was wrong. A superhero couldn't use his powers to hurt a citizen, but what Chloe had done to Marinette was unforgivable.

He stopped in front of a busy restaurant. He had been tracking Chloe for about ten minutes and she was about to walk out. He hid in the shadows, waiting for his prey. He hurried her ugly laughter. He frowned, she was about to come out. When she showed up at the door he waited for her to walk in the alley he had hidden in. It was the easiest way to go back to the hotel and it wasn't really busy so it was a perfect way home. He waited until she was just a few centimeters from him.

" I've been waiting for you" he whispered from behind her back.

Chloe turned around. She looked stiffed, the sinister voice had just come from nowhere.She was alone in the alley. All she could see was... A pair of glowy green eyes, piercing the air in her direction. She took one step back. The eyes were glaring at her with such hate she nearly lost her cool.

" Be careful, my daddy is the mayor of Paris okay? you could go to prison for laying a finger on me." She said, crossing her arms and smiling in superiority.

She heared a slight noise. Liked a light breeze. She didn't have the time to react when she saw the green eyes a few millimeters from her face. Chat took Chloe's neck in one hand and violently pushed her against the wall.

" I would care about that if i gave a fuck." He said, looking up to her.

Chloe could barely breath. She had just realized the hero of Paris was attacking her. He was really strong. The fact he had been able to raise her in the air with one hand was really scary. Her feet didn't even touch the ground.

Chloe considered her options. obviously if she told her father about that he wouldn't believe her so she couldn't threaten her aggressor with that. Her only option was to scream. She opened her mouth but no sound came out. she was out of air...

Chat grinned

" Let me break this down for you.He said. Cats are really possessive. They have things they care about.. A lot.. So when you hurt those things... Well, a wicked grin crossed his face revealing his sharp teeths, It doesn't end well...."

"- what are you talking about? chloe asked, completely lost in his words.

" Today I found Marinette lying in the floor with cuts all over her body, he started, You annoying Adrien with your stupid groupie love is none of my business... But if you hurt my private property... you have to face the consciousnesses."

Chloe's eyes widened. She had just made a terrible mistake.

"By the way, you can tell your partner in crime about my visit, but if I here anyone else know something about our little talk, I wouldn't mind sacrificing a person or two for the sake of my secret." When he said those words he squeezed her neck even harder digging her skin with his sharp claws.

Chloe had understood the message. She was going to be more careful in the next days

Hey, Adrien did you know today is the day of love. Asked Nino

Wait what? isn't that on valentine's day? Adrien replied

yeah but not in our school. Nino said.

the school's tradition is that the guys have to give a red rose to their crush and a white rose to their best friend. Explained Alya.

Yeah this tradition is just too cute don't you think. Marinette added.

She smiled and went towards the cafeteria. The event was to start in one hour. That gave her enough time to dress up. She took a water bottle in the vending machine and went to her room.

She put a red dress with a black belt. She loved that dress. A sleeveless over the knee skirt with black lace on the top and bottom. She put her black high heels and looked in Alya's direction. She was wearing a purple dress with long sleeves. Her dress was really tight. It was a low cut that fell on her shoulders. Marinette really respected Alya for her bold choices in clothing. Alya was already pretty tall so she had to wear flat sandals. She took about 20 minutes on her makeup. Her eyeliner and mascara really made her eyes look bigger. She had never really put makeup on and she didn't use any on day to day basis. On the other hand Alya was a huge makeup addict and had a makeup bag nearly as big as Marinette's small backpack she uses to put her towel and bikini. Alya finished her makeup with a mat lipstick. She put all her curly hair in a high ponytail, only leaving two strands of hair to frame her face. When she was done she looked at Marinette and grinned.

c'mon gurl, she said, let me take care of you. She pointed a chair and invited Marinette to sit for her makeover.

Marinette sat on the chair and closed her eyes. She trusted Alya and she happened she wasn't doing a mistake.

She trembled as she felt the soft blush on her eyelids.

Marinette stayed for about ten minutes without moving.

ok I'm done. Alya said before helping Marinette towards the mirror. When Marinette opened her eyes, she nearly didn't recognise herself. She was wearing a matte red lipstick that matched her dress and eyeliner that really emphasized her blue eyes.

Wow... She said, incapable of expressing her feelings into words.

She wondered which rose was Adrien going to give her. Would he give her the red rose. There was no way. She walked to the door and waited for Alya.

Damn girl you can really walk! Alya exclaimed, surprised at how easily Marinette walked in heels.

Well I'm small so i get used to it. Marinette replied. She licked wearing heels. It made her feel taller, more powerful.

She walked down the stairs and entered the room where the party was to take place. She immediately spotted Adrien. She blushed, he had a white shirt, and a black suite and tight black pants. His hair was brushed to the side, he looked really handsome but she wasn't the only one to think so, a large circle of girls surrounded him.

Adrien saw Marinette walk inside the room. She was gorgeous. He spotted a few guys looking at her but she didn't realize it. Her makeup was beautiful. It was his first time seeing her like that. She looked around then blushed when their eyes met. Adrien chuckled. She was too cute.

He walked towards her and bowed, he looked up at her and saw she was blushing. He handed her a rose. A white rose. A shadow of sadness filled Marinette's eyes. She smiled and accepted the flower. It was already in a vase. An opaque black vase. Marinette leaned on one of the walls of the rooms and looked in envy a the couples kissing and hugging...

She looked at Adrien, he was smiling and jocking around with other girls. She felt a sob tighten her stomach. She ran towards the garden. She fell on the cold floor. She stood back up and ran outside. It was raining. The small drops of water fell on her shoulders. She stood there, looking at the night sky. She closed her eyes, the sky's tears were gently falling on her face. She cried. She was sad because the person she loved felt so far away, like she could never reach it. He was always surrounded by girls and was confessed to all the time. A petal fell from the white rose. Marinette quickly took the black vase and held it near her chest. She felt cold. She let herself fall on her knees and cried. She was scared. Scared not to be enough. She could feel a cold feeling strangling her. The white butterflies in her belly had burned into ashes...

what the hell are you doing here in the rain? Marinette turned around and faced Adrien. He looked out of breath because of running.

He took his suite off and gently dropped it on Marinette's shoulders. He chuckled. Marinette was drenched. He bend down and rested on his knees. He smiled and gently took her in his arms. She was cold. He stood up and landed her a hand. She accepted and stood in front of him. Not a word was spoken. She just smiled.

May I have this dance. He said as he bowed and offered a hand.

Marinette chuckled, what a silly kitty... She took his hand.

um i don't really know how to dance... he confessed, the red on his cheeks.

Marinette giggled.

okay follow me then. She said taking his hands in hers. She placed one of his hands on her waist and the other in her own. Then she gently placed a hand on his shoulder. She looked at him and smiled.

okay then. He said, pulling her closer. She blushed and looked down at her heels.

She lidded the way. Twirling and dancing in the rain. They both laughed. Marinette missed a step and fell on Adrien's chest. She blushed. Her and her clumsiness... Adrien helped her back up and noticed the shoes she was wearing. Pointy high shoes. Her legs were shaking. He smiled than placed one knee on the floor, he took Marinette's foot in his hand and gently took of the shoe. He rubbed her sore foot before carefully placing it on the wet floor, he took the other foot and repeated the operation. Marinette giggled, she had never been treated like a princess. Adrien stood up and took the shoes in his hands. He easily took Marinette in his arms and winked at her. She blushed then looked at the night sky, it was still raining but somehow she felt warmer than before. Adrien started to spin on himself making Marinette feel like on a rollercoaster. She wrapped her arms around his neck and laughed.

When he stopped she looked at her prince charming. He looked down on her and smiled. Little drops of water were purling on the end of his hair and his nose had started to go pink because of the cold. She chuckled and squeezed him even closer.

She buried her nose in his clothes, his manly smell made her cheeks go rosy. She closed her eyes. Marinette felt warm.
