Chat Noir carried Marinette home to her balcony.
"Thanks for bringing me home, Chat." Marinette smiled.
"No problem, Marinette. By the way, I was wondering if you would like to meet me by the Eiffel Tower tomorrow night at 10, would you be available at that time?" Chat asked, hoping she would say yes.
"Oh, um, sure Chat, I'm available."
"Alright, see you then, Marinette,"
Chat gave her a finger solute and sprung off her balcony into the dark night sky.
"What were you doing? I thought you were into Adrien?" Tikki exclaimed, flying out of Marinette's purse.
"To be honest Tikki, I have no clue! I feel bad for Chat, since he doesn't get much love from Ladybug, well, me, but it's for a reason he doesn't know yet. Since he asked me today, I might as well make it up to him."
"Are you sure this is a good idea, Marinette?" Tikki knew Adrien was Chat Noir, but she still didn't know if this was a safe thing to do.
"I think so Tikki. This will be fine, we will meet, hang out a little, then go home. Simple as that."
"Alright Marinette, I trust you to do the right thing."
(At Adrien's House)
Adrien flew into his room through the window and de-transformed.
"What were you doing? I thought you loved Ladybug." Plagg asked, just as Adrien finished detransforming.
"I did, Plagg, but I don't think she likes me back in the same way. She always says there's this 'other boy', and I don't want to be the one to deprive her of him, even if it means giving up loving Ladybug."
"Are you sure it's a good idea to meet her at the Eiffel Tower?"
Like Tikki, Plagg knew Ladybug and Marinette were the same person, but he also wasn't sure if this was going to be a good idea.
"It's gonna be fine, Plagg. Besides, Chat doesn't even know her that well, it's not like we are gonna get into anything serious."
