Adrien's POV

I led Marinette to the Iron Dragon. We waited in the line for about 30 minutes and then it was time to choose which car to go in.

"You wanna sit in the front row?" I asked.

"W-w-what?! Th-th-the front row?!" Marinette asked. I nodded.

"But..." she started.

"Come on, Marinette. It won't be that bad. I promise," I promised.

"O-okay," she said. We got in the line for the front row and when it was our turn to get on, Marinette looked nervous. 

"It's okay. Don't worry. The ride will over before you know it," I encouraged her. I smiled and she smiled back and looked a little less nervous.

"Al-alright," Marinette said.

"Lady's first," I said and gestured for her to get in. I could imagine Plagg saying, 'Your Chat Noir side is showing.' I didn't really care, though. It wasn't like Marinette really knew my Chat Noir side. I had only met her a couple times as Chat Noir. It wasn't like she was gonna guess I was him just from a simple kind gesture, right? 

Marinette climbed into the seat and I got in after her. The ride started and Marinette tried to grab my hand, but I moved it away. She gave me a look and I took her hand as the ride started going up.

When we reached the top if the hill and we were about to go down, Marinette let go of my hand and held on to the bar for dear life.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!" she shouted.

"Here we go!" I yelled. Then the ride went down.

"Aaaaaagggghhhhh!" Marinette screamed. Eventually, she sounded like she was having fun.

Until the ride went up again.

"See, isn't this fun?" I asked. Marinette nodded and then held on tight again. Then the ride went down once again and soon, the ride was over. We exited and I decided to take us to the Dragster. I didn't tell her, though. I just said that I was taking her on another ride and that it was a surprise. I covered her eyes when we were getting closer.

"What r-ride are we g-going on?" Marinette asked for probably the 4th time now.

"I told you. It's a surprise," I replied. She grunted and then I told her we were in the line. It was surprisingly short. I had expected it to be much longer, but I didn't complain. 

We finally got up to where the front row was and I put Marinette in the seat, still covering her eyes. I told her to close her eyes so I could get in.

"C-can I open m-my eyes now?" Marinette asked.

"You can once the ride starts," I replied.

"O-okay," she said. I covered her ears so that when they were telling us the safety stuff and telling us to enjoy our ride on the Dragster, she wouldn't hear the name of the ride. It would ruin the surprise.

Then the ride started and I uncovered Marinette's ears and she opened her eyes. I don't think I was fully prepared for her response.

"Wh-why are we on th-this ride?" she asked. 

"Cause I wanted to ride it and I wanted you to ride it," I explained.

"O-oh. Th-that's okay," Marinette said. I was surprised at how calm she was. She freaked out on the Iron Dragon, but now she was so calm. 

The light started at red and then eventually made its way down to green and we shot across the track and straight up the tall hill. When we got to the top, I didn't want to go down. Going down at an angle is one thing. Going straight down is another. Another that I didn't like.

We zoomed down and I held on for dear life. Marinette, however, held her hands up.

"Whoooooooo!" she was what came out her mouth. What came out of my mouth was completely different.

"Aaaaaaaagggggggghhhhhhhhh!" I shouted. You could've said I was kind of being a scaredy cat. 

Okay, maybe it was more than kind of.

The ride ended and Marinette laughed when she saw our picture. She had a huge smile plastered on her face and looked like she was having a lot of fun. I, on the other hand, definitely did not. My eyes were glued together tightly and I looked like I was scared out of my mind.

"Were you scared?" Marinette teased.

"N-no..." I lied.

"Really?" she asked in disbelief.

"Yeah... Okay, fine! I'll admit it! I was scared!" I admitted.

"You're such a... What do call it?" Marinette asked.

"Scaredy cat?" I asked. She nodded. "Yeah. I guess so..."

The rest of the day was pretty fun. When it was getting pretty late, we headed back to the hotel and got ourselves ready for bed. It was kind of awkward because we had to share a room. Which means we also had to share a bed. That's even more awkward.

I turned off the light and we both got in bed. I rolled over and learned that Marinette also rolled over. We bumped noses and laughed.

"G-good night, A-Adrien," Marinette said.

"Good night, Mari. Uh, is it okay if I call you that?" I asked.

"Y-yeah. I-it's okay," Marinette replied.

"Well, good night," I said.

"Good n-night," Mari said.

Mari's Dream/POV

I looked around in a room with light only coming from a single, huge window. I saw two dark figures right in front of the window. I noticed that one of them looked like Chat Noir. Then I realized it was. He was on the ground and someone was kneeling down and reached for his Miraculous. I figured it was Hawkmoth.

I tried to help, but I couldn't. I realized that I was laying on the ground next to a wall. I felt pain everywhere and felt a warm liquid beneath me. Then I realized it was blood. I also realized that Hawkmoth was about to win. I didn't have my earrings and Tikki was nowhere to be found.

Hawkmoth grabbed Chat Noir's hand and reached for his ring. 

"NO!" I shouted. Chat Noir looked at me with a sad expression. I knew he was giving up and he wasn't gonna fight anymore. I noticed he had a lot of cuts and bruises. 

I watched as Chat Noir bowed his head in defeat.

"NO!" I shouted again as Hawkmoth started to slide the ring off of his finger.

Then I woke up.

"NO!" I shouted as I bolted straight up in bed.

"What's wrong?!" Adrien asked, sounding concerned.

"I-I had a bad dr-dream. Th-that's all... It's n-no big deal," I replied. In fact, it was a big deal. That was no dream.
