Adrien and Marinette made their way into the gardens outside of the Opera House. They walked in comfortable silence before sitting down on a bench under a canopy of beautiful flowers and leaves.

"Tell me something about yourself?" Adrien asked. He needed to know everything about this girl.

"How about we keep an air of mystery?"

He gave it a quick thought before answering.

"Go on, Princess."

"We have five questions each. No more, no less. You can't ask names but you can ask anything else."

"Why can't we ask names?"

"I'm a big believer in fate. If we need to know each other's names I'm sure we will find out at some point."

"How mysterious." Adrien nodded in agreement.

Being a superhero and owning a Miraculous made Adrien a big believer in fate or other mystical ideas.

"Ok you go first." Adrien sat back waiting for Marinette's first question.

"Are you definitely a freshman?" Adrien looked puzzled.

"You do realise you only have five questions right?" Marinette smiled and nodded at Adrien. She seemed to have gone a little shy, and he found this even more alluring.

"Yes! Today is my first day here."

"Very good! Ok your turn."

Adrien heard a rustling in the trees behind their bench. He was worried it might be paparazzi which would result in the magical moment being broken and the girl wanting to know who he was.

"Lets walk and talk." He stood up and held out his hand to Marinette. She took it and laced her fingers through his. They walked in silence for a bit.

"Ok, I've got one. What high school did you go to?"

"I went to a small one on the outskirts of Paris. It was only a small school. There were 8 children in my class."

"I like that question so I would like to steal it please."

"Whatever you wish, Princess." They turned a corner and ended up by the most beautiful fountain. It was a peacock with water shooting out of each of the feathers. The pool it fell into was lit up beautifully showing the stunning blue of the water. Not too dissimilar to Marinette's eyes.

The fountain was in a little courtyard surrounded by plant pots, perfectly pruned bushes and a large array of different flowers. Over their heads was a canopy of sting lights. It was like being in a fairytale.

"Wow! I think I've died and gone to heaven." Marinette's eyes glowed and Adrien couldn't take his off her. There is no way this girl was real.

He reached down and grabbed her hands with both of his. He pulled them up to his mouth and kissed them, causing a huge blush to spread across her cheeks.

"I'd believe we're in heaven, but only because you're here." Marinette rolled her eyes, he reminded her so much of Chat.

"How cheesy!" She giggled. "And you still need to answer my question." They both went and sat on the edge of the fountain.

"I went to Françoise Dupont High School. Although I has home schooled until I was 14. My father was very protective of me, especially once my mother had disappeared." He had no idea why he was telling her his life story.

"I'm so sorry." Marinette slipped her hand into Adrien's. He tightened his grasp around it and she lay her head on his shoulder. Marinette wondered if she'd ever met this boy before. Even though she didn't go to that school her parents bakery was just across from it and she worked there often.

"Can I have your number?" Adrien asked his next question without even thinking about it. He needed to stay in contact with this girl.

"Get the contacts up on your phone and I'll put my number in for you." He quickly pulled out his phone only to find another 5 text messages from Kagami.

They'd have to wait, he was too busy to deal with it at the moment.

Marinette quickly added her number into his phone under the name 'Princess'.

"Three questions left. You need to make them good." Adrien teased Marinette. Nudging his shoulder into hers.

She placed her head back on his shoulder and threaded her fingers back through his. His stomach was going crazy. He thought he had a whole butterfly farm flying around in his stomach.

"Tell me one of your greatest achievements."

That's easy, he thought, I save Paris almost everyday. Unfortunately he couldn't say that.

"I like to help people out, so try and do work around the community as much as possible."

That'll do, it's an almost truth.

"That's really sweet and very kind." She smiled up at him.

Good answer, Adrien. She liked that one.

"I would like to steal your question now. What would be one of yours?"

She smirked thinking about her different choices. Ladybug, Gabriel designs challenge winner, Jagged Stone cover designer ... all these would make her easy to find with the powers of technology and she wanted to play with fate.

"I got my place here on a full Scholarship."

"Wow, beautiful and talented. Is there anything you can't do?"

"Are you using one of your questions there my Prince?"

She called me her Prince, Adrien thought as his heart skipped a beat.

"If I'm using a question, that means you just used one too. I'm glad I've been upgraded to Prince though. Perhaps I shall be worthy of the fair maiden after all." He winked at her and she laughed out loud. She really was too cute for Adrien to handle.

"Fine it doesn't count." Marinette said rolling her eyes.

"Can I have a kiss?" His smirk was gone and he looked so serious and out of his depth with the question.

"Are you being serious?"

"Absolutely. If you don't ask you don't get."

"Well I haven't really ... " Marinette could feel her face going red. "I've never really kissed anyone." Apart from Chat Noir that is. That was Ladybug though, not Marinette.

Adrien stood up and offered a hand to her. Unsurely she took it and he pulled her to her feet.

"I best make this paw-sitively purrr-fect then." Marinette stilled at the pun. Could it actually be? She shook the thought out of her head. No, it can't be, he's just doing it because of the cat mask.

Luckily, Adrien didn't see her confusion and continued to lead her to a hidden spot near a spray of red roses.

He stopped and placed his hands on her waist. Taking his lead she placed her palms on his chest. Her heart was beating frantically. She was about to have her first kiss with a complete stranger.

Holding onto her tiny waist, he pulled her closer to him. The hands she'd placed on his chest were burning through his shirt and scalding his skin. This was going to be his first proper kiss. He'd had a few with Ladybug in the past but couldn't remember any of them due to being under the spell of an akuma.

They both glazed into each other's eyes and moved forwards. Eyes fluttering closed their lips touched. Sparks flew behind Adrien's eyelids and all too quickly it had ended and his Princess was pulling away.

Marinette placed her fingers to her lips. A shock had travelled through her entire body. She looked into his eyes and could tell he was thinking the same thing. The embarrassment over took both of them and they let out a little laugh.

"Wow!" Marinette exclaimed.

"Yeah, wow!" Replied Adrien.

"My question now." Marinette spoke up. Adrien looked deep into her eyes knowing what she was going to ask next. He knew, because he wanted it too.

"Please can we do that ..." before Marinette could finish asking the question Adrien had pulled her close again with hands firmly on her back. Her arms slipped into his hair and she hung onto him. The kiss suddenly turned more intense.

Adrien licked Marinette's bottom lip asking for entrance into her sweet mouth. Without a seconds hesitation she was fighting his tongue with her own.

So this is French kissing! She thought.

She arched her back pressing her chest closer into his. He let out a low growl in his throat, this only ignited her more. She moved her hands to his chest and pushed him towards the wall, keeping her lips firmly attached to his.

The wind left him for a second as his back hit the brick wall. They parted, breathing heavy. Adrien grabbed Marinette's hand and pulled her back to him, placing his hands on her waist and spinning around so her back was against the wall.

Whilst their chosen's were getting very well aquatinted Tikki and Plagg looked out of their hiding places. Giving each other a quick high 5, before slowly hiding back away.

Marinette didn't want this to stop. She pulled her leg up and placed her foot against the wall allowing her toned leg to peak out of the slit in her red silk skirt. Moving Adrien's hand from her waist down to her thigh, she hummed as he dug in his fingers.

Pulling back from Marinette, Adrien smiled. He rested his forehead against hers and let go of her leg.

"Thus with a kiss I die."

Laughing again Marinette reached up to wipe the lipstick from his mouth. As she dragged her thumb across his plump, swollen lips, he grabbed her wrist and gently kissed the palm of her hand.

"I'm sorry. I'm usually more of a gentleman than this."

"Don't worry Kitkat, I was fully participating with you."

Adrien's phone started to vibrate in his pocket. Groaning he took it out and looked at the caller ID, followed by the time.

"Sorry to spoil the fun, but Cinderella must leave the ball." He explained pointing to himself.

Marinette fixed up his hair and straightened his tie. She'd seen it was a girl calling him. A very attractive one too. Just her luck to go after a taken man, especially a taken man who cheats on his girlfriend.

Adrien thanked her and then turned to walk away. Quickly he turned back.

"Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow."

He swooped down and caught her hand kissing it on the back.

"Just go you dork." She said with a smile.

"I'll message you." He winked ... and with that he was gone.

Tikki flew out and up to Marinette's shoulder.

"Even I could feel the spark off that one, Marinette."

"He definitely was something, Tikki." She let out a loud groan.

"I don't even know his name and he has a girlfriend."

"He was taken with you, Marinette. Just trust in fate." Tikki rubbed Marinette's face making the girl smile.

As Adrien ran his way back to his dorm Plagg decided to settle on top of Adrien's head.

"So kid! What you going to do about the girlfriend?"

"I've got to break up with her. I can't believe I did that tonight. I'm not that type of person." Adrien slowed down and his reached his dorms entrance.

"You can't help it if you've met your soul mate."

"My what? Plagg? What do you know?" Suddenly the kwami hiccuped and bubbles came out of his mouth.

Adrien looked over him with suspicion as he entered the elevator. As the elevator made its way to the 3rd floor he removed his mask from his face.

Quickly, Plagg hid in Adrien's jacket just as the doors pinged open. A furious Kagami was standing on the other side.

"It's after midnight! Where were you?"

"Kagami." He gulped, "I think we need to talk."
