Chapter Text
(Marinette's POV)
It was a normal day after fighting an akuma alongside my partner Chat Noir. We had been talking about random things happening in our lives.
"Yeah my lady, today wasn't such a good day at the start, but after spending the rest of it with you, it was purrfect." He said with a smirk. I rolled my eyes at him while giggling.
"Oh Chat, always the charmer." I tapped his nose.
"Only for you." His voice full of humor. "So what about you? How was your day?"
I stopped smiling and looked down. The start of today had been awful. Chloe tripped me in class today and everyone laughed. Well with the exception of Alya, Nino, and Adrien. Adrien. She embarassed me infront of Adrien.
"My lady? Are you okay?" Chat sat a little closer to me. I felt hot tears falling down my cheeks. How could she do that to me? I'd never done anything to her in the first place. I don't understand why she's always picking on me.
"I- I'm fine Ch-chat." I wiped my eyes. I couldn't let him see me like this. I stood up ready to leave.
"I'll see you next time." I suddenly felt arms wrap around me. Chat pulled me towards his chest.
"If you need to talk, I'm here Ladybug. I'll always be here for you." I hugged him back tightly. He was always watching out for me. He was my bestfriend, my happiness at the end of the day.
"Thanks Chat."
"Anytime my lady." We hugged for a little bit longer before I pulled away slightly. I looked up to his emerald eyes. They were always the window to his emotions. I could always tell when he was happy because his eyes would have this light that put all the Paris lights to shame. When he was sad, the color looked dimmed, the flicker in them gone.
This time, looking into his eyes was different. His eyes were just full of an emotion that I could not register. He kept looking into my eyes very curiously. I wondered what he could see in mine.
His thumbs wiped away any of the remaining tears and caressed my face. He then put his forehead on mine. This wasn't anything new. We always did this whenever the other was sad.
"My lady." He put on his best shit-eating grin, knowing it would make me laugh.
"Yeah Chat?" I smiled back at him.
"Let's make a deal." He pulled his face back, but his hands were still caressing my cheeks. His eyes not looking at mine, but at something lower. I felt my cheeks heat up in realization.
"W-what deal Chat?" Great, I was stuttering now. I could just hear Tikki laughing at me.
His eyes moved back up to mine and he realized I had seen what he did. He dropped his hands from my face and turned away.
"Okay. I'll tell you, but promise not to laugh." He seemed nervous.
"Hmm. Alright Chat, what is it?" I asked looking at his back. He took in a deep breath.
"Okay. I was just thinking. Me and you have been partners for 3 years now, and I trust you with my life. I was wondering that if... in 5 years.. we don't find someone to be happy with.. maybe you and I.. we.. could be together?" He turned his head slightly to look at me.
I looked at him in surprise. He was waiting for my response.
"Y-you know what my lady? Forget it. It was a stupid idea. I shouldn't have ask-" I hugged him from behind.
"Okay Chat. I accept." I smiled at him. His cheeks had a faint touch of pink.
