Just One Time x Take a Shot, Take me to.
#even if you didn't read the other (cringe-y) story, you'll understand this since I'm going to give you a summary.
***
Cathy Loirei was born in an abusive household with only her sister Ria as her only friend .
One day, she escaped her house and brought her camera with her, only to take a picture of a butterfly that brought her to a world she's familiar with.
She met Emilie Agreste, the wife of the villain in series, Miraculous Ladybug, asking her to save everyone, mainly the fate of her son from his own father.
Accepting her mission, Cathy received the Phoenix Miraculous which guides the Ladybug and balances the Black Cat, a Miraculous that grants rebirth.
And finally, she became Cathy Bourgeois, a kind, clumsy, childish yet intelligent girl, adored by her sister and her childhood friend, Adrien.
She grew up with them, not until she went to England to finish her study and after 8 years, she returned just to finish her mission.
She met friends, save the day, gain enemies here and there, rest, and of course fall in love.
(I'm lazy to write all the details so here's the (shorter summary))
Luka: Brother Figure/ they made Kitty Section
Marinette: friend/ex-Love rival
Adrien: boyfriend
Chloe: Sister
Lila: ex-bestfriend/ love rival
***
Y/n was bored as hell as she listens to the sound of Adrien's piano. Her finger tap on the desk whenever she found the music endearing, waiting for any greetings or message from her friends.
It's Christmas and the weather is so cold, she could even see frost forming on the glass window and mist covering the transparent fiber.
Snowflakes falls on the ground and plants wich brought Y/n to her first memory of Christmas with her parents.
It was so happy and perfect that she wouldn't even doubt their love for her.
"—Y/n" blinking, you turn to Adrien who stop playing the piano. You quizzically look at him as he points at you—rather, your phone
"Aren't you going to answer that?" Looking down, you saw your phone vibrating. You look at the unknown number and pick it up.
"Y/n speaking, may i know who's this?" You ask, wondering who called you. You didn't want to guess either, because it would be too embarrassing if the person on the other line was not the person you expected.
"Y/n? Ohh..did i call the wrong person?"
You heard to voice mumble. According to that sentence, you presumed that the caller is a girl, ...childish with her way of whining and of course may or may not be around your age.
"Ohh~ sorry about that!i thought i called Adrien but I guess i called the wrong number , you know? Soo..byee~" you felt... Odd, she started rambling here and there and ended the call without you saying a thing to her.
But that's not all..
"Adrien, you have a girlfriend?" You ask look at the boy who whip his head at you.
"W-what?!" You were unamused as he keeps stuttering, face red as tomatoes.
"she called me, she said she was about to call you but instead called the wrong number" you watch how his fluttered spirit gone down in sadness, him muttering an 'oh' then finally realizing what you said.
"I don't have a girlfriend!"
"Sure.."
"Y/n!"
***
The next day you couldn't help but call Alya, asking her of her plans. Since you'll have your day with Adrien during Christmas, you wanted to plan something that's only for only you and the class.
"Ohh! That's great Idea, Y/n! Maybe we should ask Ms. Bustier if we can celebrate at school!"
"hmm.. that's great, I'll count on you"
"Sure! I'll inform you later, but while I'm at it, you should inform our other classmates"
"Alright... Merry Christmas, Alya"
"you too! Merry Christmas!"
With that, you ended the call and went to your room and took some materials from your desk.
Since Gabriel didn't want to celebrate the freaking, Christmas, then might as well make your own Christmas tree. It's not like it would kill you if he's going to get angrier at you.
Looking for some DIY videos on the internet, you prepared your materials before following the instructions.
*Insert ringtone*
Sighing, you pick your phone to see Adrien calling you. You press the answer and listened
"Merry Christmas, Cathy... I hope you're here but i guess I'll be celebrating my Christmas alone. Even though you ask me to join you and your family, I don't want to intrude. Anyway... I hope you like your gift—"
"What the fuck Adrien? I don't to listen with your sappy words! Tell that to your girlfriend"
You deadpanned when the other line suddenly ended.
But then, he called again.
"I-uh.. may i know who's this?"
You swear you didn't want a prank this December.
"It's Y/n"
"Y/n?.. uhh..hey Y/n..can i ask why are you holding my girlfriend's phone?" You grit your teeth and stood up and exited your room. You didn't end the call as you make your way to Adrien's room.
"It's my phone"
"But it's her number..weird"
Opening the blonde's door, you ignored his shirtless appearance and look around the room.
"Hello?" The other end still said and you didn't talk, watching Adrien like a hawk that caused the poor boy to blow-off like a steam.
"Who's Cathy?" You said pertaining to the other line and Adrien in front of you.
"She's my girlfriend"
"I don't know her"
You furrowed your brows when you receive the answer. You look at Adrien the your eyes trailed towards where his phone was..
You didn't assumed that this would be a prank when the called clearly said "Adrien" and his voice was the same as the Adrien in front of you.
"Can you send me a picture of you?"
You said towards the other lins
"Uhh..w-why? Are you a fan?"
"No I'm not. I don't like you at all but i need to confirm something"
The other line went quiet before he answered yes and ended the call.
Now that you finished talking, you look at Adrien.
"It seems you have some impersonator"
The boy frowned before the both of you stilled, frozen in place as realization hit the both of you.
Your faces heat up, heart beating erratically as you scurried away from the room and Adrien tried to find his clothes.
You curse yourself mentally, not noticing how he was half-naked earlier.
Stopping, you put a hand on your beating heart remembering the blonde.
'his body looks....great'
Shaking your head, you went to your room, trying to forget the scene earlier.
***
You informed everyone of your plan as Alya messaged you that your teacher approved. After video calling Marinette and Alya who are in charge of the decorations, you returned to Adrien's room as if nothing happened. You told him that the two of you were going to cook, since of course he's rich as hell, he didn't have a problem with that and agreed.
You two planned what food to cook, even asking the maids of what is good during the Christmas since this household doesn't usually celebrate it.
Ping!
Taking a look at your phone, you furrowed your brows when you saw a picture of Adrien... But way older.
Around the age of 18 and you couldn't help but blush at his slightly bulk and matured body.
You tap Adrien and showed him the picture and he cough, taken aback
"Wow, the editing skills are top notch" he said looking away, imagining himself growing into someone like the image.
You sent Alya the image asking her to check if it's fake or not before looking at the list of food.
"Sh.. should we ask for a help from the others?" You ask looking at Adrien.
There are atleast 8 type of foods you were going to make and the two of you plus the maids won't do.
"Yeah" he mumbled.
***
As days go by, the day before 24 came. You and Alya planned to celebrate before Christmas Eve since that day would be celebrated with the family.
The cold snow fall slowly, cold air surrounds the mansion causing the mansion to get more colder.
You tied your apron on your waist with Adrien beside you. The maids prepared the ingredients as one of the maids waited for Nino and of course Rose who wanted to help you.
Alya said that Chloe would contribute the beverage and other food which helped a bit.
"So first—"
*Insert ringtone*
You grumbled and reach for your phone, answering the request for face time.
"Hello?" You shriek and throw your phone, Adrien catching it before gasping in surprise.
"Y/n..." You covered your burning cheeks and look at him in confusion.
"I think...this is not fake" you pouted and peek at his shoulder, meeting eye to eye with an adult Adrien.
"So.. you're Y/n i guess" he said and you nodded shyly. Not use to how masculine he looks.
His hair was in mess and you guess that he goes to the gym at the sight of his shoulder and chest—clothed chest.
"Wow..so are you perhaps from another dimension?" You clutch Adrien's shoulder, nodding slowly and Adrien saying 'maybe'
"Cool! I only met one person that comes from a different dimension and she's my girlfriend, are you two dating?"
You met Adrien's eyes and you shook your head, moving away from him as he blush denying what the Adult Adrien said.
"Oh..well sorry, i thought you two were both dating since young Adrien here is my alternate self, as to Y/n there is—Adrieeeennn!!!— my girlfriend" you stood beside Adrien and watch as another blonde appeared, a blonde girl with blue eyes. She was grinning and you couldn't help but feel blinded at the brightness she was emitting.
No way your other self is that girl!
She's too bright!
"I'm Cathy Bourgeois" she said and you and Adrien sputtered hearing her surname.
"shouldn't her counterpart be Zoe?" You heard Adrien mumbled and you nodded because clearly, you don't want to be that Cathy girl. No offense but she's too bright, a clear opposite of what you are.
"oh Zoe? I met her and she exist here" you slump your shoulder and just accepted your fate.
After Adrien talk to Adult Adrien which you didn't heard since he move a few feet away from you, you heard Adrien bidding his goodbye and you two started making food and while doing so, Nino and Rose came in and joined you two.
***
You felt exhausted as you walk inside a shop, you look around trying to find a good gift for Adrien and the others.
You stop and went to another aisle, finally finding a suitable gift for the boy.
You didn't really have the time to buy anything for him or your other friends, with all the busyness that's been going on and the unimaginable talk with the AU Adrien and You.
It threw you off with how there's another world there similar to your world. It feels... Amazing yet scary at the same time.
***
The school ground was decorated beautifully the moment you and Adrien entered. There were ribbons, mistletoe which you warned yourself to avoid at any cost, hanging. A seven feet Christmas tree, and of course the table where the foods are situated.
There was already a Christmas song playing, courtesy of Nino. And some were already having fun.
The maids following behind putting the food on the table before dismissing themselves as you two walk to Mr. Damocles and Ms. Bustier greeting them.
"Y/n!" You walk to Alya with Adrien following you like a puppy.
"I can't believe what you said, is it really true?" She gush causing the other girls to feel confuse as to why she's acting to excited. You grin, blushing at the thought of the Adult Adrien despite trying to stop yourself.
"Y-yeah!..."
"Heyy, mind sharing?" Rose whine but Alya hug your arm, winking at you and Adrien
"That's a secret~" you chuckled as Adrien cough awkwardly. The other girls groaned calling you and Alya unfair.
Alya went on the mini podium, starting the class's program. You and Adrien stayed in front of the food table, drinking juice while watching everyone have fun.
It's not like you didn't want to join.
Just watching them makes you happy because as one of the people who planned out this party, it made you feel appreciated.
"Here" you look to your side and saw Adrien holding a box to you. You slowly took it from him and opened it, seeing a necklace with a little pendant of your birthstone.
It's simple yet elegant.
"Can you help me put it?" You said and Adrien gladly complied, taking the necklace as you turn your back and hold your hair to the side.
You look down at the beautifully made necklace as Adrien mumbled "done".
You were glad that you met him... Although regretting those times you acted rude to Adrien..
He was the only person who had given you gifts, showed you how much he cares and never gave up on you.
Suddenly the music change, and Adrien said to you.
"Shall we?" Chuckling at his words you accepted his hand and let him pull you to the center where everyone was dancing. Even Nino left his station as he ask for a dance from his girlfriend.
Wrapping your arms to his neck like how you did in Las Vegas, his hand move to your waist, holding you closer to him.
You shivered at his touch as you look up to him, meeting his green eyes.
"It seems our classmates really like dancing" you smiled remembering his birthday and Chloe's.
"You've gotten better at this" you said teasingly causing the blonde to blush. He tightened his grip and you laugh.
Adrien was never good at dancing, be it slow dancing, waltz and hip hop, he's body seemed to not really cooperate with him. An irony since he's so flexible when he's Chat Noir.
But you didn't know that.
"Y/n—"
"Ok..my dudes! Let's play some games!!" Adrien sighed and pulled you back to a corner, you wanted to ask what he wanted to say but couldn't speak it out, thinking that you might have misheard him.
Ignoring how he wasn't letting your hand go, you put your free hand to your pocket and fiddled with your gift.
You didn't know how go give it to him. You're too embarrassed to do so.
"Ohhh!!! Y/n! Adrien! Look up!"
You froze praying to the gods heaven above that it's not what you were thinking. Slowly, you raise your head and saw a mistletoe hanging there like a godforsaken curse.
"Uhmm" clearing your throat you look at Adrien.
"I-It's ok, right? I mean we already kissed so what differs, we're still going to stay as friends, right?" And now you're rambling.
Blushing, you grip at Adrien who was staring at you with so many emotions you couldn't fathom. Suddenly, you gasp when one arm snake to your waist and pulled you closer.
You were now a blushing mess.
Gripping his clothes you gaze at him before he dip down and captured your lips, you could hear the cheers of your friends and Chloe's words. Your eyes stayed looking at his closed eyes before pulling him more closer and kissing him back.
They were soft, endearing and addictive
Finally pressing a short peck, Adrien pressed his forehead on yours as you stare at each other's eyes.
"I don't wanna be friends after this" you gape..
"I want to be something more, and i hope that you allow me to call you mine" blush coated your cheeks as you nodded while biting your lips.
You didn't know Adrien was this smooth with words.
When you moved away from each other, you handed him a bracelet, his own birthstone on it.
Scratching your cheeks you mumbled softly.
"I guess we thought the same thing" smiling at your shy face, Adrien kiss your cheeks before asking you to connect his bracelet. It was not girlish, it was also not too manly. The chain were more bigger to add some 'masculine' details and it was just perfect settling on his wrist.
"Merry Christmas, Adrien" you said and he clasped his hands behind your waist bringing your closer once more.
"Merry Christmas, Y/n" and he captured your lips once more making your Christmas more eventful.
Smiling to the kiss, you thought that this wasn't as bad as you thought it would be.
Really a wonderful Christmas.
