2 weeks later....
Mari's POV
3..... 2.... 1....
00:00.
I instantly send the 500-worded text I had planned for Adrien's birthday for two months now. It had to be just like him... perfect!
Until I discovered that I missed the word 'happy'.
I wrote 'hapy'!
"OH NOO!!! This is a disaster!" I cry as I melt to the floor in tears.
"It's fine Marinette! It's just a letter," Tikki chips in.
"IT'S NOT JUST A LETTER, TIKKI! IT'S A BLEMISH IN THIS PIECE OF UTMOST PERFECTION!"
Tikki looks at me weirdly, and flies into the miracle box.
Maybe I wierded her out a bit, but now is not the time to address it.
I had to fix my mistake!
I was about to delete the message until I saw four letters under it.
Seen.
"OH NO!!!!!!! HE'S SEEN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS A DISASTERRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!" I wail
"Marinette! It's the middle of the night! You're causing a ruckus!" my mum yells
"Sorry, mama!" I yell back.
I am completely unsure what to do until Adrien then calls me.
Do I anwer? Do I ignore? Do I transform into Ladybug and hide away forever?
I decide to answer.
"H-Hello Adrien?"
"Hello Marinette, how are you?"
"I'm quite alright, thanks. Happy sixteenth birthday!"
"Thanks, Marinette! My mom and Nathalie says I can throw a party after school. And we are also having that date, as promised."
I immediately turn pale. I had forgotten we were going on a date!
"S-Sure, Luka! I'll be ready for our date!"
....
"My name's Adrien."
I then realise my mistake.
"Oh my bad! You're Adrien! You're you and Luka is different because Adrien is Adrien and Luka is Luka!" I ramble on helplessly.
I hear him chuckle a bit. "You're weird sometimes, Marinette. That's one of the reasons I love you."
My cheeks instantly turn red as I whisper to him "I love you too Adrien."
"Good night Marinette."
"Good night Adrien."
