Marinette's POV

Max was talking to Alya about something I wasn't interested in. He casually threw his arm around me. I tried to be Ladybug, but in my own body, and looked for a way out. That's when I saw Adrian. He looked so cute the way his blonde hair shone in the sun. Really one can't help but be star struck. I ran up to him and gave him a huge hug. Sensing Max's eyes I pull away and mouth, thank you. I couldn't help thinking that our hug felt right.

Max hugged me from behind and said, "Babe. Who's the Blondie? I'm Max."

"His name is Adrien." As I said it I blushed. Max had to have noticed, because he pulled me tighter.

Sometimes I wish I hadn't loved him. At any point. I did at first, but I have reason to think he was cheating on me.

We spent a while at the park before it was just Adrien and I.

"So Max huh?" He says.

"Yea." I sounded sad, and hollow as I spoke.

"Anyway should I walk you home?"he asked.

"Sure I'd love that." I said back.

We talked as we strolled about everything under the sun. Too soon we came up to my little bakery. What happened next shocked me.

After he said he had fun I agreed. Then kissed him! I felt so bad.

"Omg I'm so sorry." I cried.

"Don't be" he said back," it felt... Never mind."

I arrived at the akuma attack just in time. As I watched to see what was happing, Chat Noir, Volpina, and Bleu came to my aid. I shouted orders and in no time we pined the giant tooth brush down and broke the tiny brush in half releasing the akuma. I threw my yoyo up and wished the butterfly the best. We all yelled pound it and I fixed everyone with giant teeth back to the way they were.

Chat Noir and I jumped over rooftops till we reached the Eiffel Tower.

"Kitty, what should I do?"

"Whatever could m'lady mean?"

"I have this, er, friend who has a boyfriend that she doesn't love and her heart yearns for another. What advice should I give her?"

"Well, tell her to follow her heart and everything will be fine."

I wish I could take his advice, but I just don't think it's right. To either of them.
