Summary
This isn’t just a story of lust and desire — it’s a story of loss, growth, and finding your way back to yourself.
She arrives in her latest car, a red candy apple VW Bug, music blasting, and parks badly on my driveway. Every time I see her, she’s leased something new. I’m not sure what that says about her—commitment issues maybe?
But I don’t have time to unpack that. Not when she’s climbing out of her seat like that, pink skirt hiking just a little too high for a man trying to stay decent in public.
She rushes to open her trunk, bends over, and proceeds to shove half her body inside. I mean, what the hell am I supposed to do with that view?
I gather my aunt’s boxes of vintage fabrics and slowly start heading toward her. I try not to stare at her ass in the process, but my eyes betray me. They always do with her. I stand there awkwardly, eyes pointed ahead while I wait for her to notice me.
She smacks her head on the trunk door when she finally pops out. “I hate when you sneak up on me,” she mumbles, rubbing her head with an adorable scowl.
She’s so cute when she’s angry. Like, annoy me again, kind of cute.
“Sorry.” I say, without a hint of remorse.

Summary
Some things break easily.
Some things just need a good hit to start working again.
Marinette is… still figuring out which one she is.She and Adrien keep running into each other like the universe is playing a very specific (and very annoying) joke on them. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong feelings, wrong page—rinse and repeat.
It’s not that they don’t work. It’s that they never quite work at the same time.
A companion to You Got a (horny) Friend in Me, told from Marinette’s perspective.
