Adrien's POV

It's been a week. Nothing exciting just akuma's and Marinette's kisses. I have no idea if she kissed anyone before but she's good.

Nino's party is today and I am hoping nothing happens to prevent me from coming. Also that Chloe doesn't lie again.

"I need my love! Camembert!" Plagg dramatically posed. I threw him a piece of the stinky cheese.

"You are disgusting." I groaned.

"Yeah but I'm not the one smacking on some girl." He responded.

I blushed with the remark. Grrreat I have no comeback now. I went to my computer and looked at the Ladyblog.

"Hey, guys here is Ladybug with me for a Christmas interview!" Alya exclaimed. "Ha thanks for having me." Ladybug chuckled.

I've heard that laugh somewhere.

"Well first let's start with if you even celebrate Christmas."

"I do it's one of my favorite holidays." Ladybug smiled.

That smile as well.

"Nice!" Alya screeched. I know she's fangirling inside.

"Now for the more juicy stuff, do you have a Christmas sweetheart?" Alya questioned. Ladybug got a shade of deep red.

"Oh um I um guess yes, no, I don't know it's kind of confusing." She stuttered.

She's so adorable when she stutters.

"What do you mean by 'I don't know?"

"Well um I have this guy but there's this other guy and I um... let's get to the next question."

A guy. She never told me about any guy.

I felt my blood boiling. "Adrien more Camembert!"

I punched the desk. There's a guy she hasn't told me about. Actually two guys.

"Woah calm down just tell me where the Camembert is and I'll get it myself," Plagg said.

She has two sweethearts.

My heart was racing and I wanted to destroy everything in my path. Perhaps the guys she was talking about.

I punched the wall.

"ADRIEN GIVE ME MY CAMEMBERT!" Plagg screeched.
I threw him my school bag. "Finally." He muttered.

I got my phone and I calmed down seeing what was on the screen.

Marinette.

I sighed, "Plagg you know what, you might be right," I stared at the picture of Marinette. "Camembert is better than girls."

Marinette's POV

I went into my room and de-transformed. "Even as Ladybug, I can't talk straight when it comes to Chat and Adrien." I groaned sliding into my seat.

I saw a paper on my desk and picked it up. It read:

It's the same person;-;

"That's weird, who can this be?" I muttered. "I don't know maybe the author frustrated with how oblivious you and Adrien are even though she's the one who writes you like that," Tikki said.

"Tikki what are you even talking about?" I said confused. "You know what. Forget it, let's go back to the normal story." Tikki said. I shrugged it off and threw the note away.

"Well I gotta get ready for Nino's party." I sighed. I went to my closet and grabbed a black dress. It went up to my knees and it was tightly fitted but it's cute. Also, the sleeves went to my elbows so I won't be freezing cold.

"How's this?" I asked Tikki. "Cute but black for Christmas?" She said questioning my taste. "Yeah, I'm going to wear my red heels along with a Santa hat."

Tikki nodded in approval.

I put the clothes on.

I looked at myself in the mirror. Something was still bothering me, then it hit me. "Time for some change." I smiled.

I curled my hair and put some makeup on. Red lips with some dark eyeshadow. I will admit I like how this looks on me.

I grabbed a red purse and started heading out.

When I went out I saw an akuma throwing Christmas presents like bombs.

"Great even in the Christmas season Hawkmoth doesn't rest," I muttered. I hid behind a car and transformed into Ladybug.

My hair was still curled and my lips still had the bright red color. The eyeshadow went away I guess from my mask.

"Ho Ho Ho Krampus here. Have a terrible old Christmas." The akuma dressed in black Santa clothing pounced.

"You know some people don't celebrate Christmas," I said getting into action.

"Too bad because if I can't be happy this Christmas no one can!" Krampus yelled.

"How about you go to the North Pole instead." I looked to my right, it was Chat, of course.

Krampus threw some more Christmas presents (bombs). I blocked them all along with Chat.

"Woah my lady you look d-different." Chat said. "But you still look beautiful." I blushed.

Adrien's POV

"Pound it!" We yelled. "Well u gotta go so bye Ch-" I grabbed Ladybug's wrist. She looked shocked and her eyes wide open.

"I um saw the Ladyblog interview. W-whos the guys you were talking about?" I asked. She smiled, "The cat and the person." She kissed my cheek and left.

I blushed.

The cat.

I smiled and left. I went back to normal. This time I actually had cheese for Plagg.

I was wearing muster color pants with green combat boots. Also a black and white pattern sweater along with a green beanie.

I walked to Nino's house. I knocked on the door and Nino opened it.

"Hey dude nice to see you didn't go to Chloe." He teased. "I am here can you stop with that!' I begged. "Nah." He laughed.

I groaned.

Nino and I walked to where the girls are. From behind, I saw a girl with a short black dress with red heels talking to Alya.

"Oh hey, Adrien you actually came." Alya greeted me. "Hey..." my words drifted off when I saw the girl was Marinette.

She looks beautiful.

"Ey he um mi um what?" I stuttered. No girl ever left this effect on me. She giggled, "Hey Adrien." I smiled with a small pinch of red on my cheeks.

"Well, I'm going to leave you two love birds alone." Alya smirked. Marinette and I started blushing and stuttering that we aren't.

The rest of the time we were talking and stuttering half of the time.

"How about we take it slow for a moment," Nino yelled putting a slow dance on. Damn you and Alya.

"Um hey, do you want to dance?" I asked. She nodded her head yes. I grabbed her hand and took her to the dance floor.

She put her hands around my neck. I carefully put my hands around her waist making sure she was alright with this.

We slowly moved to the music, guess that's why it's called slow dancing. I looked at her eyes reminding me of my mother's. Her eyes have the same passion of my mother's. The same stars.

You have her eyes.

The music came to an end. I smiled awkwardly and went back to the table we were sitting at.

(A/N) Merry Christmas! In July...
