"Chat Noir! Cut the power lines! We got to make sure she doesn't have an exit!"
"On it!"
Chat Noir and Ladybug were fighting akuma's once again and Ladybug wasn't in the mood. They were fighting a girl named Electra, and she was hard to get.
"Chat Noir! Behind you!"
"Woah!"
Chat Noir was just able to get out of the way as Electra lunged for his miraculous. Chat Noir came crashing back down onto the roof. Ladybug ran over to his aid.
"Chat Noir! Are you okay?"
"Yeah I think i'll be fine."
"Good. But next time pay attention and think fast!"
With that Ladybug ran off to distract Electra. Chat Noir stared after her in disbelief. *She must just be having a bad day, he thought*no big deal.* He shook away his thoughts and went back to the plan. Chat Noir was able to destroy all power lines and circuits around, and he and Ladybug trapped Electra's akuma in her IPod.
"Another job well done, huh, M'Lady?" Chat Noir said holding up his fist for their usual "pound it" after fights, but Ladybug just turned her back and started to walk away.Chat Noir ran after her and grabbed her arm to stop her.
"Ladybug! What is up with you tonight! Your not yourself!"
In a flash, Ladybug turned around and smacked his hand away.
"Your right. I'm not my self tonight! I was already put into a bad situation due to one individual today and then I end up fighting an akuma which almost takes your miraculous because you dont pay attention and its up to me to save your tail!"
Chat Noir stared at her, his mouth slightly open, trying to think of some words.
"I'm sorry your having a bad day Ladybug, but you just need to cool off for a bit, take a break."
He reaches for her shoulder but she flinches away.
"Have you ever noticed how your usually the one who gets into trouble and i'm the one that has to get you out?"
This triggered Chat's unusual temper.
"Hey! There are also times when you make the mess and I have to clean it up!"
Chat got right into her face, but she didn't even blink.
"Yes, but your messes out number mine! And your cat puns are terrible! There not even funny!"
Chat Noir was taken aback. This time she went to far.
"Look here Ladybug! I agree that I get into more messes than you but my cat puns are *puuurrrfect*"
"Quit it! Chat Noir, I was just starting to get close to you, to *liking* you! But now, I just don't know."
Chat took a few steps back and stared at her, shocked at his lady's words.
"You... you like me?"
"Of course I do! I've had a crush on you for weeks now! i just... I just need some time off, okay? You can be the hero for now."
"But..."
"I'll see you later Chat."
With that, Ladybug jumped away into the darkness.
"... I need you Ladybug."
Chat Noir hung his head and slowly walked away, ignoring the fact that he changed back to Adrien Agreste and how Plaag was trying to comfort him. But he wasn't the only one with a broken heart that night.
Marinette ran into the school, actually early for once. She ran straight to class, not looking or talking to anyone along the way. As soon as she got to class, she sat down, got out her things and waited for class to begin.Her eyes were red and puffy from a whole night of crying and she felt as if she could cry again at any moment.
Adrien was the second student in the class room. His eyes were also red, but because of lack of sleep, staying up all night thinking about Ladybug. When he was about to sit down, he caught a glimpse of Marinette in her state and knew something was wrong.
He stretched out his hand and put it on her's. She was startled by his touch and looked up, her eyes wet with fresh tears.
"Hey, are you okay?" His voice was soothing and full of comfort.
Marinette turned away and wiped away a few tears.
"Yeah, i'm fine. I just had a bad night." she sniffled and started to play with one of her pigtails.
Adrien gave her a long look, taking in what was in front of him, a pretty girl with a broken heart.
He dropped his gaze and murmured to himself," your not the only one."
He retracted his hand and sat down as more students started filing into the room.
Marinette ignored everyone, even Alya, and after school she ran straight home, and straight to her bed where she started to sob into her pillows and Tikki tried to comfort her.
After Marinette ran home, Adrien knew was wrong and decided to follow her home and to try and comfort her. He knocked on the Bakery door which was instantly answered by Marinette's father.
"Oh! Adrien, what are you doing here?"
"Hello Mr. Dupain-Cheng, is Marinette here? I need to speak to her."
Tom gave Adrien a confused look.
"Yes. She's up in her room. I'll go get-"
"It's fine. I'll go!" Adrien interrupted, running up the stairs and leaving behind a very confused and worried Tom.
Adrien knocked on the door above him but nobody answered. He then slowly opened the door and called out for the girl. He heard crying and opened the door all the way to see Marinette on her bed. Tikki saw him and, just in time, was able to get into a hiding spot.
Adrien slowly walked over to her and softly tried to comfort her.
"Marinette. you can tell me what's going on. I'm always here for you."
Marinette sat up and tried to wipe away all her tears but couldn't, so she let loose of all the deppression built up in her, not caring about who would hear her.
"My life is ruined Adrien! I'm Ladybug! And last night I might have lost the love of my life because I was having a bad day! Chat Noir will never want to see me again!"
Marinette started sobbing again and put her face in her hands. Adrien just stared at her. He just found out who the love of his life was and how much she actually cared for him. He put his hand on her leg.
"Chat Noir will always want to see you Marinette."
She looked up confused and wiped away a few tears.
"What do you mean?"
Adrien smiled down at her. "I will always love you M'Lady."
Marinette stared up at him with shock. she then sniffled and had a grin plastered onto her face.
"Then I guess this was worth the fight and tears kitty."
