Cat Noir: Hey princess, guess what this shirt is made out of.
Ladybug, rolling her eyes: We’ve been dating for years, Kitty. I know it’s boyfriend materi—
Cat Noir, getting down on one knee: Wrong. It’s husband material.
All this time we’ve talked about what they’ll remember post-reveal, what things they’ll call each other out on, I wanna know what happens when Adrien remembers getting stood up!
“Wait, you’re Ladybug!”
“And you’re Chat Noir,” Marinette rolling her eyes, “we figured this out like a month ago,”
“No, if you’re Ladybug, then that means you were free the night you stood me up. You were sitting alone on your balcony, why didn’t you come to see me?”
“You had to be there, actually- yeah, you had to be there, that was the whole point.”
“What on earth is that supposed to mean?” Poor Adrien really was lost on that one.
“That was the night everyone was going out for ice cream, I ditched Chat Noir hoping Adrien would show, and then you didn’t so I went home to mope while Andre became akumatized. Then Chat showed up.
“Also, I saw your surprise, and I thought it was so sweet and I felt so bad for leaving you all alone. I never knew you were actually in love with me before that point.”
“You never knew? It’s not like I was exactly subtle. Miss-I-told-you-to-your-face-that-we’re-just-friends-nothing-more.”
An Adrinette fic where they start dating but instead of Marinette being harassed by the press and jealous fans, the paparazzi are all too intimidated by Nadya to harass her favorite babysitter, and Adrien’s fans decide that Marinette is the cutest thing ever, fall in love with her Princess Di-style, and form a vigilante Marinette Defense Fan Squad that follows her around and she’s constantly having to give them the slip to transform. And then one day she confronts Adrien and says “You need to do something about your fans” and he says “but they love you” and she says “yeah but they won’t leave me alone and I can’t tell you why but that’s really inconvenient” and then he says “well I can’t tell you why but it’s better for the entire city if they’re following you as opposed to following me.” To which Marinette says, “Think again, pal.” And that eventually leads to a post-dating reveal.

“Excuse me m’lady.”
Seven years.
That’s how long it had been since the last time Marinette had been called that name.
As she stood in the busy streets of New York with people pushing past her from every direction and coffee dripping down her once clean shirt, Marinette saw nothing but the man in front of her. Could it be him? No. This man was American, there wasn’t a single possibility it could be him. But even so, Marinette couldn’t help but wonder if the person standing in front of her was the boy who she fought endless battles with many years ago.
“Hey are you okay?”
Marinette snapped out of her day dream and turned her attention to the stranger who had just run into her, causing her to spill her coffee all over the top that she had designed herself.
“Pawsitively purrrrrfect,” Marinette nervously laughed trying to get a reaction out of him.
The man’s expression instantly changed from one of concern to confusion as he muttered “Weird,” and walked away.
Well I guess that answers that question. But as Marinette rushed off towards work, she was transported back to a time when her days were filled with keeping Paris safe with her favorite sidekick, Chat Noir.
