[Marinette certainly got the same screeching from the teacher in class as she spent a lot of time staring at the back of Adrien's head. Or into his eyes when he looked back at her. Alya had to keep pulling her out of daydreams to make her get her work done.
The thing was; Marinette simply couldn't believe she was dating Adrien Agreste. And even after eight months, it still hadn't quite sunk in that Adrien was also Cat Noir. Thankfully it hadn't changed their team dynamic so fighting akumatized victims was just as business as it used to be...apart from Ladybug no longer minding how Cat Noir continuously flirted with her. The puns still earned him a slap upside the ears sometimes but the flirting was much nicer now they knew each other.
Marinette brought herself out of her thoughts just in time for the bell to ring. Alya said she'd catch up later and ran after Nino, while Marinette herself saw Adrien waiting for her. The best thing of all was seeing Chloe's face. It satisfied her that her greatest rival wasn't happy, even if that wasn't exactly her nature. Chloe just brought out that side in her.
Adrien, on the other hand, brought out the best in her. And the moment she saw him again, all thoughts of Chloe left her mind. She waved back, moving in close and kissing his cheek.]
Hey.
[It wasn't much, but at least she'd stopped babbling at him like she had done at the start of their relationship. Except in those moments where she felt self conscious and remembered she wasn't good enough for him and one day he'd realise it and leave her. She forced herself to snap out of that train of thought and focus on enjoying the present day with her boyfriend.]
[The kiss on his cheek brings some colour to them, as his smile turns a touch more goofy. It's only there for a moment, before the perfect Agreste polite smile is back. It's easier to be himself around here while they're in private, but in public...it's still hard to drop the persona his father expects of him.
All the same, he still offers his arm to her as they head down the walkway towards the exit. ]
So. We're finally free M- [he nearly calls her "My Lady" and bites it back at the last second ] Marinette. What do you want to do with it?
[She gladly takes his arm and leads him out of the school, then towards the park.]
Well, unless something distracts us...[Meaning an Akuma]...we could do so many things. Enjoy the sunshine for one. Or the sights of Paris.
[There had even been times when they'd transformed for no reason other than to do so and be together in that capacity as well. Marinette was very glad their works as heroes of Paris hadn't been compromised by their revealing of identities and the relationship that had followed.]

You know I don't mind as long as I'm with you.

Likewise. We can always wander the city, see what gets our attention?
