The Reverse

# The Reverse | By: LadynoirRose

## Chapter 1 | The Reverse

"Students! Today we are going to start on a new project! It's about an island! It can be about whatever you want. Even a cotton candy island! You have to tell them about your island and make a flag! You may choose your partner and then the school's over!"

All students are excited to work on the project and especially Adrien.

"Dude wanna-"

Nino stops.

"Marinette wanna be my partner!!!" Marinette looks at Adrien and gasps. She says yes.

"Great! Then let's meet at your place Marinette!"

Marinette nods and walks out of the classroom. Adrien was talking to her about something but Marinette wasn't listening. She's still so shocked and something more shocking was... When Adrien said to meet at her place she had no idea that it was exactly right after school! Her mind blank. Both of them walked together to Marinette's house and to her room. While Marinette was getting out the poster paper Adrien was getting out his favorite crayons.

"So what should our island theme and flag be Adrien?"

"l don't know. I love you."

"What?"

"I love shoes! love shoes! We should make it about shoes..."

"No..."

"We make it about cats!"

"Wait... Adrien! got a better idea! Hamster island! love hamsters!"

"I love hamsters too! That's a great idea!"

The two get started on the project. On their flag is a big hamster and the background is pink and green.

"I can't wait to present this tomorrow with you Marinette!"

Marinette nods. Then Adrien gets a call that he has to go home. Good timing. Soon it was time for Ladybug and Cat Noir to go patrolling. Marinette was excited to see Cat noir. Ever since they went to New York her opinion has changed. She transforms into Ladybug and goes to the rooftop they always meet on. There he was. Muscular... Cute... Blonde... Green eyes... Black suit... Kitty!

"Hi!"

Cat noir turns around to see Ladybug. He waves back at her. Ladybug and Cat noir sit on the roof and talk.

"So... What's up, M'lady?"

"The sky. Why are you asking?"

Cat noir gives a glare. Ladybug looks and laughs. She tells him that she was just joking. Ladybug just remembered something! Her mom asked her to buy cucumbers! She gets out her yoyo to check if cucumbers were still in stock. Cat noir wonders what Ladybug is doing. He sees the cucumber and he jumps and screams. Ladybug gets scared and she puts away yoyo and goes to Cat noir.

"What happened? Were you scared of the cucumber?"

Cat noir said yes and they laughed. Ladybug noticed how cute he was when he laughed. But she stopped herself. Adrien was finally liking her back or at least that's what she thought. If she liked Cat noir then everything she did for Adrien is gone!

It was soon the end of patrolling but as the two were about to another person got akumatized...again. It was Gorizilla. Ladybug and Cat noir get out their weapons and fight.

-After The Fight-

"Pound it!"

"Bye Kitty! You did a great job!"

"Bye Ladybug!"

Ladybug turns back and gives a look. She wonders why Cat noir didn't call her M'lady. Cat noir notices this.

"Bye M'lady!"

Both of them go home.

-At Marinette's House-

"Tikki! Cat was weird today. He didn't say a single pun. He didn't try to impress me! He didn't give me any flowers. He didn't spend that much time with me! What if he doesn't love me anymore!"

"Marinette! Don't you like Adrien?" "Umm... I'm thinking about it.."

-At Adrien's Mansion-

"Plagg. Wasn't it strange..the way Ladybug acted? was nice but...l kinda like Marinette but... I'll think about it..."

"Adrien! You are certainly crazy! Why don't you fall in love with cheese! It's way better!"

## Chapter 2 | Presentations

"For the island presentations, we will have the students go in this order. Adrien and Marinette, Chloe and Sabrina, lvan and Mylene, Alya and Nino, Juleka and Rose, Max and Kim, Alix and Nathaniel, and Lila couldn't do the project because she has tinnitus."

Adrien and Marinette:

"This is our project by me and my friend- I mean my partner Adrien."

"For our project, we made an island called hamster island."

"On our island, there are lots of Adriens- uh hamsters! The people come to visit hamsters."

"The king and queen hamster take care of the island. Our flag is a pink and green flag with a hamster face on it."

"The colors are pink and green because that's our favorite colors."

"Thank you for listening!"

While the others are presenting:

Adrien looks up to Marinette who is watching Alya.

"Hey, Marinette! Class is kinda boring today."

"Adrien the others presenting. I don't think we should talk."

"Come on! Sometimes it's fun to break rules."

Marinette was so shocked that Adrien was acting so different. He reminded her of Cat noir.

"He's so adorable!"

"Huh? What are you talking about Marinette?"

"Uhh, nothing! Let's just listen to others okay.."

Later:

"DING!!!!!"

"Schools out students!"

Everyone's rushing out of the doors. Alya comes running after Marinette who got a head start. It was usually Marinette coming second because she used to follow Adrien before he left. "Marinette! Weren't the presentations funny! Especially Chloe's! Seriously, Chloe island where there are servants dedicated to Chloe? That's weird! But loved yours!"

"Thanks, Alya! Yours was paw-some too!"

"Paw-some? Really? Have you been watching funny Cat noir videos again?"

"No..."

Marinette did spend a lot of time with him during patrol but she didn't know his puns were making such a big effect on her.

As the two were walking Marinette got her phone to see that Adrien was calling. She picked it up to hear that beautiful voice.

"Hey, Marinette! tried calling you earlier but you didn't pick up. Anyway, I wanted to tell you that we did awesome! I was going to talk to you after school but you were with Alya."

"It's ok and thanks..."

She wondered why Adrien sounded like he was panting. It seemed like he was running. Marinette looked at the time.

"Ahhhhhhhhh! Alya gotta go! Bye!"

She went running like a chicken. She totally forgot about patrol! She transformed and found Cat noir waiting for her.

"Sorry, I'm so late Kitty cat!"

"It's ok M'lady!"

Ladybug couldn't help but stare. Now that she saw Cat noir differently he looked way more handsome. She couldn't resist!

"Ooh. So... amazing!"

She whispers.

Cat noir notices her stare at him and gives her a look.

"Are you talking about me Ladyb-M'lady?"

Cat noir knew that Ladybug would get jealous if he didn't call her M'lady. He didn't wanna hurt her feelings though liked Marinette.

"Pfft! No! Why would I say that?"

"I mean M'lady am pretty handsome."

"Oh yeah are...I mean don't know! You're just like any other guy..."

Ladybug was terrible at lying. Cat noir couldn't help but laugh. He started laughing so hard he fell to the ground and held his stomach!

"Hey! It's not funny! It isn't my fault you're so incredibly handsome, adorable, and a-meow- zing...I mean amazing!"

Hearing that Cat noir started laughing even louder. No one could stop him now.

"Finally M'lady likes me! Hahahaha! But now it's too late! Haha!"

Uhh oh. Ladybug hears this.

"First of all, like you but not that way second what do you mean by it's too late?" "Uhh no mean...Look at the time! Patrolling is almost over!"

"Cat... Are you in love with someone else?" He couldn't lie. He stopped laughing.

"Yes, M'lady."

Ladybug went quiet. Patrolling was going to end so she just walked away without saying anything.

"M'lady! Wait! I'm sorry! didn't think you liked me!"

"Oh. No, don't... Also, you don't have to make yourself call me your lady... Since you love someone else anyway..."

Cat noir sits on the roof.

"What have I done. Was it wrong to love Marinette?"

He uses his stick and goes home. Marinette jumps into her room and detransforms.

"Tikki. Was it wrong to love Cat noir?" Both of them at the same time. "Should have stayed single?"

Later that night:

Marinette was standing on her balcony.

"Thump!"

"Cat noir!"

"Hey princess. I think I've done something bad."

"Cat your so a-meow-zing. I mean amazing! Why would you do something bad?"

Marinette thinks about how cat puns are affecting her so much.

"Well actually disappointed M'lady and think the girl doesn't like me... Don't ask. It's a long story."

"Oh. I think a guy likes me but kinda friend-zoned him and I kinda got heartbroken today.."

"Oh. Wanna be friends, princess?"

"Why not."

"Great. This is going to be a great friendship!"

"Yes! C'mon! I'll get some cookies and let's spend some time together!"

"Yay!"

## Chapter 3 | Marichat?

Marinette and Cat noir have spent a lot of time together since.

"Ahh. Tikki just I love remembering the day Cat noir and became friends. We were eating cookies and watching a movie. Then Cat noir ended up sleeping. It was so adorable. That soft silky blonde hair, gorgeous green cat eyes, that beautiful smile, his puns! Unfortunately, it's not safe for me to ever love him. Not as Marinette especially since my Dad got akumatized into weredad!"

"You're right Marinette but you love him then how will you force yourself to not like him now?"

"Here's my plan Tikki. I keep him as a friend and then make Ladybug love him!"

"Marinette you realize even if you make him your friend he will still love you back right? You know when Cat noir thinks of something he won't let go."

"I’m not so sure about the last sentence but you're right Tikki. Ah! I think Cat noir is coming! I mean he comes like every day... But it's been a week... But I haven't dried hair! The floor is soaking wet! I need a towel!"

"Hey, purrincess!... Why's your hair wet?"

"Uhh well. just washed my hair." "Princess, you realize that it's like noon and you just took a shower?"

"Well, I like waking up late on the weekends. Anyway, what are you doing here?"

"What do you mean? I'm always here when I'm bored."

Marinette laughs

"Oh. Well does Ladybug know about this?"

"No. But I'm sure she won't care."

"Are you sure? You told me she liked you and then you said you liked someone else."

"Yeah but it's been a week. I'm pretty sure she's over it. She acts like normal around me."

"Ok."

"Uoysfuliecluhlcits"

Marinette falls out of her chair

"What was that!"

"I don't know, princess. Maybe someone is akumatized? I guess have to go now. Bye!"

"Yeah, you better go. Ladybug will be waiting. Hehe."

-At the fight scene-

"Where's Ladybug?"

Ladybug taps Cat Noir's shoulder.

"I’m right here."

"Oh ok. I have to tell you something." "Yeah. Tell me. But after we devilize the villain."

-After the fight-

"POUND IT!"

"Right so I wanted to tell you... kinda fell in love with this girl named Marinette and uhh... Yeah."

"Ok so what do you want now?"

"I mean... Can I love her?"

Ladybug thought he loved Ladybug. Marinette mostly considered him as a "friend boy".

"Well. don't think it's safe... But guess if you keep it a secret guess it's ok." Cat noir thanked her and then both of them left. He soon arrived home and slept because he had some plans tonight.

-At around or 9 pm-

"Hey princess! Wanna have some fun?"

"Cat noir! Are you crazy! Do you realize how late it is!"

“I know but no one will know if we're quiet.."

"Ok, but what are you planning to do?"

"Eat cookies?"

Cat noir got on to Marinette's couch and they ate cookies and told stories. Since Marinette is Ladybug none of the stories were new but she still enjoyed the memories. Soon they both started laughing loudly and because of this... Marinette's dad came up the stairs.

"Marinette! Cat noir! What are you doing!"

Both of them look at each other and look at her dad. Marinette tries to explain but what could she possibly say? With all the noise Marinette's mom comes into the room too. The situation was getting worse.

Both of them were in big trouble. Marinette whispers to Cat noir.

"Nothing. There was a villain access Cat noir saved me. I almost got killed! That's why I was offering him cookies. That's ok right?"

Marinette's parents were confused. Cat noir jumped out of the room through Marinette's balcony.

"Hey wait!"

Her dad yells. Marinette goes to sleep as if nothing happened. Her parents left confused. Cat Noir we've home and Marinette went to sleep. What was happening? Her parents went to their room and thought it was just an illusion or something. At least that's what Marinette thought.

-The next evening-

Marinette goes into her balcony. She sees Cat noir sitting on the railing. He was sad and when he turned around Marinette could see the great on his eyes.

"Princess. I'm sorry. It's my fault. I convinced you. I'm such a bad person."

He looked at Marinette one more time. She looked normal but then her eyes started to water.

"It's also my fault for saying yes Cat. My parents didn't say anything. it's just that I don't want this to happen again. I'll give you cookies but please. The couch got lots of crumbs on it. Weirdly my dad was fine with it because he thought you liked me and that all his dreams could come true or whatever. You know… From when you had brunch at my house?"

"l get it, princess. I'm sorry. I won't do this anymore… But I don't get what you mean."

Marinette cries. She liked him but she didn't want to hurt him or herself.

"It means we can't see each other. It means I won't give your cookies. It means that our friendship is over!"

Marinette forces herself to look away. She goes into her room and looks our the window as Cat noir jumps away on his stick.

-Later in the day during patrolling- "Cat noir why are you so sad?"

"It's nothing Ladybug"

"Cat. Tell me. Did something happen?"

Cat noir turns to Ladybug and looks at her. He explains everything that happened last night.

"I’m sorry Kitty. I'm always here for you. Remember that."

"Thanks, M'lady."

It was music to Ladybug's ears when she heard him call her M'lady. It was better than princess. The two lean on each other and sit on the rooftop while patrolling. Cat noir started to sleep. "He must've not gotten any sleep after what happened."

Ladybug whispers. She pats his head and lets him rest his head on her shoulder. After around 15 to 20 minutes he wakes up. It was nice to see him happily sleeping. She still felt so bad about what happened this morning.

"M'lady! Did I fall asleep? I'm so sorry!"

"It's ok Kitty. You should go home." "Yeah, I will. Bye!"

"Bye Kitty!"

## Chapter 4 | Together Forever

-Marinette's house-

"Ahhhh! I need to go! It's Monday!" Marinette rushes to school with a croissant stuffed in her mouth.

"Am late Alya?"

"No, you're right on time... Well maybe a bit late. Ms.Bustier said we're going to be focusing on history during class today."

Adrien pops out of nowhere.

"Yeah, history is boring. Wanna escape the classroom and have fun?"

Marinette who's still shocked about even though it's happened before.

"'Adrien we can't leave class! You're acting so strange!"

Adrien doesn't reply.

Ok so maybe Adrien being in love with Marinette made him act like Cat Noir. He guesses that she might not like him this way but Cat noir was his real personality. If couldn't act like himself in front of his future girlfriend then he would be acting forever. Maybe he shouldn't love Marinette. After all, if she ever found his identity she would end up hating him. Maybe he and Marinette just weren't right. Maybe he should love Ladybug again. She did finally start to like him. Thinking about this Adrien got lost in his thoughts and school ended. -After school-

Usually, after school Ladybug and Cat noir had patrolling. So both of them meet. "Hey, M'lady!"

"Cat! You're still calling me M'lady? Do you lo- actually, nevermind.!"

"M'lady. Of course, love you!"

Ladybug's eyes widened.

"Really? Wow... Oh my... This. Is. Eeeeeeeeeee!"

She couldn't control her feelings! She stood up and jumped and squealed!

"Ahhhhhhhhh! I'm so happy!!!- mean thank you!"

She couldn't hide it. She may have lost Cat noir as Marinette but she was glad to have him back as Ladybug! Cat noir was overjoyed! His old love is back! He smiled watching his lady scream out happiness. He missed Marinette but he was so happy to have his lady back. Ladybug grabs Cat Noir about to hug him out of happiness but right when that happens…

"Ahhhhhhhhh!"

An arrow goes right through Ladybug. Her hands drop off Cat noir's face and she falls to the floor. A teardrop streams down Cat Noir's face. He looks to see what caused this. A sentimonster. Cat noir takes out his staff and runs toward it and Mayura.

"Well. Well. guess the Cat just lost his lady. How sad. Anyway, meet Cupid. I noticed how happy you were and just had to ruin the fun"

"What. Have. You. Done. To. My Lady!" Cat noir jumps and charges toward Mayura. All of a sudden Bunnyx appears.

"Stop Kitty noir! Let me handle this! Walking out of the portal behind her was Ladybug from the future. Cat Noir's jaw dropped. She. Was. Beautiful. Ladybug walked to Cat noir.

"This is the only chance to meet me."

She winks. Then Bunnyx and Ladybug start to fight Mayura. Cat noir went into shock. Unfortunately, when future Ladybug throws her lucky charm he will forget. Cat noir smiled and touched his cheek. He and Ladybug were meant to be no matter what! Soon after the fight ended. Ladybug threw the lucky charm and then Bunnix and Ladybug left. Ladybug wakes up. She opens her eyes and sees Cat noir. "Cat noir. What happened? remember was going to hug you and then my mind went blank."

"Don't worry M'lady. Everything's okay. Come here." Ladybug gets up and hugs Cat noir. Both of them look into each other's eyes. Then both of them hugged each other even tighter.

never let you go M'lady. It's you and me together forever. I love you."

love you too Kitty!" The sun was beautifully setting and the 2 were hugging.

"Nothing could stop them. They are Ladybug and Cat noir. They shall reign supreme against all who go against them!"

THE END!
