As an avid shipper of LadyNoir, I really like the idea of Adrian having even a little crush of Marionette. But given the evidence, I really doubt that's the case.

1) Adrian most likely hesitated at kissing Chloe because she was being so ridiculously forward about it. As for why he was so relaxed with kissing Marionette, it was probably because he only saw her as a classmate. He thought that there wasn't any romance in it, and that it was just something to do for his best friend's movie (if only he knew, right?)

2) We don't really see Cat Noir around other girls, so flirting with females could just be part of his character. (As Adrian, he's really reserved, and flirting with random girls just isn't how he works.) Plus, he could have unconsciously noticed the similarities between Marionette and Ladybug, and flirted with her out of habit. I doubt that he'd do it so that she'd put in a good word with Ladybug, because that would be a counterproductive plan---what if Ladybug got the wrong idea that he had the hots for Marionette? As for asking her opinion of him, I'm sure he was just wondering what the average citizen thought of him as Cat Noir. You'll notice throughout the series that Cat Noir is often outshined by Ladybug, so you can't blame him for wondering.
