Secret identity

Reversed

This is for the 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!!! (I WAS BINGE WATCHING ML AND I FORGOT BUT TECHNICALLY IT'S STILL THE ANNIVERSARY BECAUSE IT'S NOT MIDNIGHT. NOT YET.)
I can't believe it's already been that long! You've probably seen the posts going around about everyone in the fandom doing something special and I've decided to do a one-shot fanfic. It's a reversed roles Au.

"Come on Adrien, go talk to her. What's the worst that could happen?" Nino nudged my shoulder encouragingly.
"Gee, I don't know, I could get rejected." I stated the facts as I felt panic rise up inside of me. "I just can't do this Nino! Look, she's a model. Everyone adores her, why would she fall for me?" I sighed.
"Because you've been crushing on her for ages now. She deserves to know at least that! You never know, maybe she likes you too. You'll never know unless you go over there and tell her." Nino attempted, but even looking at her made me nervous.

•Marinette's POV•

"Mari, hey. Wait up!" I heard a voice call my name and suddenly a pair of arms flung around my neck. "Oh, hey Chlo." I feigned innocence as I attempted to pry her off of me. I glanced at Alya for assistance but she just laughed and walked away. She's got a lunch date with Nino.
"How was your weekend? Daddy said that he'll allow us to go shopping tomorrow! Doesn't that just sound amazing?! Of course it does there's no point in asking! I'll pick you up. It's going to be brilliant." She said, before I even had time to process anything she grabbed my arm and started tugging me along. "Let's go get lunch. Daddy will pay, obvi!"

•Adrien's POV•

"I wanna tell her I really do. It's just, Chloe is always with her nowadays. There's never any time." I sigh as I sit down with Nino and Alya. They both texted me saying that they want to meet me and talk about Marinette. "Describe her." Alya randomly said. "What do you mean. It's Marinette, she's your best friend." I confusedly looked at her.
"Just do it. No questions asked."
"Fine. She's..." I pictured her in my mind and my stomach exploded with butterflies. I forgot their awaiting stares and just let all my feelings out. "She's gorgeous, but her personalty is more beautiful. There's no one that she doesn't care for. She even manages to put up with Chloe. I can't get her out of my mind! I think about her all the time. She's funny, smart, responsible..she's perfect." I sigh and rest my head on the table. "Basically, I'm doomed."
"Wow..you got it bad! I mean, I knew you liked her but wow. You totally love her!" Nino stared me and Alya gaped at me. "L-Love her? W-Why do you think that?"
"Think it, I know it. The look in your eyes when you talk about her, that's what Alya looks like when she talks about me. And she just adores me, don't you?" Nino joked as he pulled Alya closer to him. She just laughed and rolled her eyes before kissing him on the cheek, still not moving from him arms.

•Alya's POV•
"I'm just gonna go to the toilet before we leave." I mentioned to them as they payed. I got my phone out to text Mari and tell her I'll be back soon but when I saw my phone, my heart stopped.

"This can't be happening. How much did you hear?" Panic laced my voice as I spoke into my phone.
"Enough..l-listen Alya. I-I've got to go." Her shaky voice was the last thing I heard. I'd been on the phone with her that whole time. I don't even know how...Adrien's gonna kill me.
