(Adrien's POV)

How am I gonna explain to Alya that she's coming here? She's gonna think of me as Marinette is not herself. I gotta play it along so she won't think I'm crazy. Or that I'm still mad at milady in my body. I still can't believe I was oblivious to not realize that Marinette is my lady the whole time. She had the same pigtails and voice.

"Hey, girl. I'm here" Alya came into the room.

"Hey, Alya." I greeted her.

"So tell me. Why were you so grouchy at Adrien? Did he do something wrong last night at the restaurant?" Alya asked while the kwamis just flew around.

"Uhhh....well....nothing happened actually. I just wasn't myself, that's all. I didn't mean to make her...I mean him feel bad" I made up an excuse.

"Wow, you seem calm. You haven't even stuttered when I mention about him." Alya was a bit shocked.

"Why wouldn't I?" I asked shyly.

"Because you always do when we talk about him," Alya said.

Is that why Marinette stutters a lot because I'm too handsome to her? I don't understand. She never had trouble talking to Luka. Sure they broke up but they remained friends. Oh well, love can be hard to understand.

"Oh well yes. But it's complicated what we were talking about. We're fine for now." I said.

"Anyways, are you gonna talk to Cat Noir without messing up this time? Remember, no patrolling this time. You need to talk to him or he'll end up as Cat Blanc for real in this timeline. You did say he's one powerful akumatized victim" Alya said.

So Marinette did tell Alya about it but not to me from the beginning until now at school. I can't believe she kept it to herself without telling me.

"I'll try. But....what if he doesn't listen?" I asked, pretending to sound like I don't know myself ever talking to Ladybug.

"Don't worry, I'm sure he'll understand," Alya assured me.

I pretend to sound guilty, "I hope you're right, Alya. I'm going to find him. Tiki spots on!" I transformed into Ladybug.

"Go get that kitty." Alya joked when I left.

(Marinette's POV)

I was waiting on the rooftops for *Adrien to arrive in my body. I hope he doesn't do something stupid as Ladybug. This Cat Noir body is so.....muscular. How does he even get the hang of being the charming kitty cat? I'll never know because now it feels like roles have been reversed. Now he won't be able to flirt with me or more like flirting himself. I can't believe that the boy I love is a superhero the whole time.

"Miss me kittyboo?" I heard him come.

"Ugh! Seriously? Don't you find that ridiculous that you're flirting with yourself, Cat Noir?" I groaned in annoyance.

"Yeah, and I'm not Adrien this time, remember. But I'm still upset with you today. You got a lot to make up from all the times you reject me, both to Cat Noir and Adrien at the same time" *Cat Noir said.

"Okay, okay! I get it! I'm sorry! The truth is....well....the boy I love is.......you, Adrien. Okay, you happy? I was afraid to tell you but I stammer a lot and get so clumsy and stupid! I took too long to tell you for 2 years" I told him my truth and he looks stunned.

"You really mean it?" He asked in astonishment.

"Yes. I mean it." I replied sadly and I saw his or rather my face change from anger to one full of regret and sympathy.

"Why couldn't you tell me that day during the Troublemaker incident or at the wax museum? You told me you were only interested in my fashion. So it was all a lie just to cover it up?" *Cat Noir asked.

"Yes. It was. And there's no point in getting your forgiveness." I said.

"True but I might forgive you until you stop keeping secrets from me, kittyboo. I know it's risky to protect loved ones from Shadow Moth but secrets don't last forever" *Cat Noir said.

"Stop calling me kittyboo. Even in my body, you're still the same Cat Noir" I rolled my eyes, "Whatever happened to bugaboo?"

"You're still my purrfect bugaboo." *Cat Noir said.

This made me hug him tightly, "Thank you. No more secrets for now my Kitty."

"But you still got a very long way to make up, kittyboo" *Cat Noir flirted but I pushed him away a little. Even if he's Adrien, I still love him. I never realized that Adrien as Cat Noir can be such a flirt. He's never flirted with any girl as a civilian. Perhaps he has a different personality as a kitty cat.

"But don't forget, bugaboy, we are in each other's bodies" I reminded him.

"Maybe a date will do once this is over." *Cat Noir said.

"Hmph, we'll see, bugaboy. Just not like this because it feels like you're falling in love with yourself" I chuckled.

"Fair point, milady. But I don't know how we switched bodies" *Cat Noir said, playing with the yoyo.

"It all started with that fortune cookie last night. Maybe that's why it made us switch bodies" I guessed.

"Could be. But I hope it will be over soon." *Cat Noir said.

"Now, there hasn't been any akuma around. Shall we patrol milady?" I teased him since he's in my body.

"Gladly my kitty." He smirked, that's the Cat Noir I know.

We ran on the rooftops to patrol Paris for now, we may have made up but it's a long way to it.

(Cat Noir's POV)

*Marinette has a very long way to gain my forgiveness until she learns not to be so secretive to me again. She's just like my dad being so secretive. But at least she confessed her love at last. That's what makes me happy now. This love square thing kinda feels weird for us. But Ladybug is right, if I let my anger control me I'll become what she feared. But one thing I don't know is how scary is Cat Blanc? Was I very evil like a supervillain or extremely powerful? I may not ask her now because we're on a patrol. Maybe later.

"Anything yet Kittybug?" I called to *Ladybug.

"No, but your nicknames are annoying me," *Ladybug said, hitting me in the head with the baton.

"OW! Did you just hit me in the head with my staff?" I glared at her.

"Yeah and sorry." She said.

"It was worth it." I rubbed the back of my or her head.

"Kinda fun using your stick, bugaboy" *Ladybug is starting to sound more like me whenever I'm in charge of the humor.

"You know, you could be an actress," I said.

"Nah, fashion designing is better." *Ladybug said. Just then we heard people screaming.

Perfect! Time for some action! We went from the other roof to see what akumatized villain it is this time. Frightningale is akumatized again. Oh no! The last time we battled her was that we were forced to dance, sing, and rhyme or be frozen into pink plastic statues.

"Okay time for some rock n roll!" *Ladybug and I jumped down to face her.

"Ladybug! Cat Noir! What a fancy meeting you again!" Frightningale saw us.

"What? No rhyme or singing this time, dancer? I feel disappointed" I said but forgot that I'm in Ladybug's body.

"Are you making everyone be forced to dance again?" *Ladybug twirled her stick.

"Yes and so are you!" Frightningale tries to whip at us we both dodged it and head straight up to the roof of the Grand Palais while Frightningale followed.

We dodged her whips but we got hit and we see our pink aura outlines and we gotta dance or we'll be frozen.

"Gotcha now! Can't fight back this time, you'll be frozen!" Frightningale laughed.

"You know, you look like Harley Quinn. Not crazy enough to dance with us?" *Ladybug pretending to be me so Shadow Moth doesn't see through the villain's eyes that we are switched.

"Or are you crazy or lazy?" I made a rhyme.

*Ladybug and I jumped off the roof to dodge the whiplash and landed on the ground, trying to keep up the dance and some of the rhyme.

"Sweet bugaboo, what possible plan do you see?" *Ladybug asked while dancing.

"Uhhh....my lucky charm!" I summoned the power along with the suit changed and out came handcuffs again.

"Handcuffs again?" I looked at them, then my ring and the yoyo.

"Go for it, for your move," I said to *Ladybug while dancing.

"CATACLYSM!!!" She used it on us to handcuff our wrists and tie our feet.

"Connected as one and fight as two." We both said at the same time.

"No!" Frightningale gasped and tried to whip us but it had no effect on us.

We both did as one to move, run, and punch at the same time while connected, "Take a hint, take a hit!" We both sang and we kicked her in the gut, sending her straight inside the Grand Palais but she managed to get back on her feet.

"You're not getting my akuma again! You'll tire yourselves out and be frozen forever!" Frightningale trying to intimidate us but that's not happening.

"We are not scared because we don't care!" We both said.

*Ladybug grabbed the akumatized object with her cataclysm hand, turning it to coal and the akuma was released.

"Miraculous Ladybug!" I tossed the handcuffs in the air as the swarm of ladybugs swarm around to fox up the damage and us. I always wanted to do this again.

I opened the yo-yo, "Dancing is over, little akuma! Time to de-evilize!" I swung it like a lasso and caught the akuma, "Gotcha!" I opened the yo-yo and the purified butterfly flies freely, "Bye-bye little butterfly"

We then saw Frightningale get consumed by dark purple particles, returning to Clara.

"Pound it!" We fist-bumped.

I also forgot that the outfit changed on me earlier and it disappeared when I used Miraculous Ladybug, meaning that Ladybug always hands the charm to the akumatized victims. I open my yo-yo and took out the magical charm for Clara.

"Here you go. It will protect you from Shadow Moth." I said and put it in her palm and made her hold it tightly.

"Thank you Ladybug!" Clara hugged me tightly.

"Agh! You're....welcome" I strained at how strong she hugged me.

"Oops time to go." *Ladybug's miraculous beeped.

Mine beeped too, "Like now. See ya!" I said.

(Ladybug's POV)

We quickly head into the dark alley and de-transformed back to our civilians, no longer need to hide from ourselves since we are in different bodies.

"Seriously Plagg? How can you stand to eat that?" I held out a Camembert cheese for him and held my nose from that awful smell.

"I just love it." Plagg munched it.

"Yeah, not easy to give him something else. He's a picky eater!" *Adrien said, feeding Tikki a macaroon.

"I am not!" Plagg complained and swallowed his cheese.

I breathed out for some fresh air, "That reminds me, you didn't shower my body, did you, Adrien?" I glared at him but also blushed.

"No, no! I swear I didn't. I couldn't!" *Adrien stammered like me which made me laugh a little but still held a glance at him.

"Plagg claws out!" I transformed into Cat Noir and held *Adrien in my arms and jumped to the roof to get to his mansion which wasn't that far from where we are.

We came through the open window of his bedroom and dragged him to his bathroom and closed the door. I can't believe I'm doing this but I don't trust him showering in my body like a pervert.

"What are you doing? Oh no! You're not serious?!" *Adrien blushed like a tomato at what I'm going to do.

"Yeah. Sorry, Adrien but I don't trust guys staring at my body. Now don't look!" I used the tail belt to cover his eyes.

-

After washing him while I'm still wearing the catsuit in the shower while he's blinded, I helped put my clothes back on him. He looked pale as a ghost but at least he did not see himself in my naked body. This is the most embarrassing thing in my life! I'm mixed with Ladybug and my clumsy personality at the same time.

"I am not a pervert, I swear! I don't even know what it's like being a girl. Do I have to hang out with the girls tomorrow?" *Adrien asked, trying to straighten himself up.

"Yes. And if they ask you about yourself, just pretend to stammer. It's....kinda....what I do whenever I'm nervous" I said shyly with a blush, still looking at the mirror bathroom, still Cat Noir.

"Alright then. I'll do my best." *Adrien said.

"And do I have anything to do tomorrow like fencing or something?" I asked.

"No, I quit fencing because I couldn't face Kagami during our breakup. But do you know how to play the piano?" He asked me.

"Uhhh....no," I said in a high-pitched voice.

"Just pretend that your wrists are sore so my father feels convinced. He cares about my well-being but he never forgets my schedule. Or Plagg can play the piano for you" *Adrien suggested.

"Ugh! Is there freedom in your life?" I complained.

"Only at school and as Cat Noir." He said.

"And I bet you being me is making you as happy that you get the freedom?" I crossed my arms.

"Well.....yes." He scratched the back of his neck shyly, "But it's not easy being you or Ladybug. Anyways, I gotta get back to your place before your parents start worrying about you. Tomorrow in my place, you have to stay in my room, my father is way overprotective of me. Just......don't talk back to him" *Adrien said and says the transformation words and turns back to Ladybug.

"Got it," I said while he left the mansion.

(Normal POV)

The next day, *Adrien woke up early again since that's what he does in his life but now he's stuck in being Marinette's life. The kwamis in her room never settle down and it wasn't easy for him to calm them early in the morning.

"Okay, that's enough. I'm not Marinette and you know she's gonna be furious if you accidentally used your powers without a holder" He said with a serious loud tone to get them to stop and return to their miracle box.

"Yeah, like Plagg did with Atlantis," Wayzz said.

"And why isn't the fox miraculous with you?" *Adrien asked but the kwamis could not tell him that, "Never mind, I can't know that."

"Trixx also did a great illusion with the Lochness monster in the past" Xuppu laughed.

*Adrien was not amused and he glared at them, gesturing them to return to the miracle box which is hidden in the sewing box. He got dressed blindly and went downstairs to have his breakfast meal with Marinette's parents. At least he gets the freedom but *Marinette does not. He can't help himself that he'll get to do what he wants.

"Morning.....mom, dad" He almost said their last names.

"Morning Marinette," Tom said.

"Slept well?" Sabine asked.

If only his real father would tell him that but he never does. *Adrien nodded and sat down with them and ate. He's even happy to get a real meal, unlike the meals at home he never likes because his father wants him on a strict diet. But at the same time, he felt bad that Marinette lives his lifestyle in his body.

He quickly ate his food so he can go meet up with her at his mansion, "Thanks. I gotta get going! You know how clumsy I am. See ya!" He quickly dashed out the door, leaving Marinette's parents confused.

"Huh? That's odd." Sabine shrugs.
