So...
Marinette and Adrien are realizing about their feelings (Marinette towards Chat and Adrien towards Marinette) so Marinette starts freaking out, Adrien is way more calm about this info so he just goes patrolling, obv he goes straight to the bakery, no plan to talk to Marinette, he just wants to see her, and he does, but realizes that she is freaking out about something so he just goes and asks her what's wrong, she gets scared and tries to answer but just stutters nonsense but Chat laughs and tries to comfort her, for some reason someone gets Akumatized so Chat goes to the rescue, the Akuma sees Chat getting away from Marinette, that instead of transforming just sees Chat going, so the akuma kidnaps Marinette. In the fight, Chat tries various ways of saving Marinette but he just can't, Marinette is kinda bored rn, but at leat she knows where the akuma is, the akuma grabs Chat as well so she tries to talk with the akuma to get them free somehow but the akuma keeps talking with Monarch so Chat just goes straight and screams "Can you stop ignoring and pay attention to my girlfriend, please?" (Petite amie)
Everything stops for a second. Chat didn't realize what he said, Monarch is happy to know this information, the akuma stills don't know what to do and Marinette is red. Chat just tries to make Marinette talk and that's when he realizes what he said. He tries to correct himself but no one listens. So everything goes wild, the fight is confusing but Ladybug appears in a moment and defeat the akuma, Chat is just blanc (ohno), now he believes that Marinette really hates him or finds him weird because they have talked like three times??? Anyways he tries to apologize and asks Alya to post that he meant girl friend because she was the only girl friend that he has in a game online (in French works like that she's the only small friend he has, wich isn't true in neither language but anyway) that way akumas doesn't attack her, Alya does it and the people just don't believe this, but they know is like for protection so they act like ok, but people still messes with Marinette at school and Adrien is so sorry about this, he cringes everytime this happens, Marinette just chooses to ignore this, even though her red face says how this affects her. Gabriel actually believes the explanation because he is dumb, but notices that Adrien is sad about something and believes that he likes Marinette and this hole Marichat thing is what he is sad about, he tries to support him (his way obv) and Adrien can't be normal about this, like why is his father so suddenly supportive on him dating Marinette? and why is he telling him how to flirt? And why he now has the permission to invite only Marinette over or go to her house??? He doesn't know but it works, they start dating.
Post reveal they joke about that one time that Chat slipped his feelings towards Marinette to Monarch and some dumb excuse worked
