Honestly, I have NO idea why I'm writing this. Since Adrien doesn't go to CFD he never met Nino which means that he never became Bubbler.

When Ladybug and Chat Noir first met Ladybug couldn't help but notice a bruise on her partner's cheek. When she asked about it she was told that it was nothing, that he had fallen out of his bed earlier that morning.

She knew that he was lying, cause she had fallen out of her bed multiple times before and knew for a fact that if it had bruised it should of been mostly faded by now. But why lie about something as simple as how you got a bruise?

The next time they saw each other was during Stormy Weather. She noticed that Chat didn't seem to be sporting any bruises like last time, but for some reason he had been favoring his left shoulder. He would even occasionally hold it in obvious pain.

Before they parted ways after purifying the akuma she sudjested that they should patrol once or twice a week. He didn't think that it was a bad idea, but he told her that he probably won't be able to make it to every patrol. She asked why and the only thing he said before leaving was "My dad."

Why didn't he say "parents" instead of "dad? Is his dad more controlling than his mom? Or is his mom not even around?

She tried to pay more attention to him after that.

Pharaoh? Cut on cheek. Excuse? Somehow managed to accidentally cut himself with scissors. That one is kind of possible. she once fell asleap working on a sewing project with the scissors still in her hands, but he could of lied about that.

Their first patrol? A bruise that she could just barely see due to the night time lighting, but she could tell that it was, in a way shaped like a hand. His excuse for that one? "Probably just the lighting. It is night after all."

Lady Wifi? Favoring his right leg and wrist. Left for a little while in case his dad decided to check up on him and came back with a black eye forming. She didn't even bother asking about that one knowing that he would either say something that was obviously a lie or something that could happen but have something not fit like before. Now she was getting worried.

She started a list of the things that she knew about him so far.

1. Always seems to have an injury of some sort.

2. Possibly absent or dead mother. (He always mentions his dad never his mom.)

3. May be getting abused by his father. (He left because he knew that his dad would probably 'check up' on him and came back with a black eye.)

That last one she really hoped wasn't true. No one deserves that kind of treatment from their parents and she knew from watching one of her classmates that it could form trust issues in that person if they're being abused and will take a while for someone to be able to trust anyone ever again. I mean, just look at Nathaniel! He use to be abused when he was five up until he was seven or eight and he almost never trusts anyone enough to talk to them or even sit with anyone at lunch!

It wasn't until after Rodgercop that things started to get really bad. He started showing up with more and more cuts and less bruises. More often than not he would be favoring a shoulder, wrist, ankle, leg, or sometimes even a whole side of his body while before it was only a wrist or ankle on ocassion.

And then the night after Dark Cupid Tikki had almost forced her to transform when she got a call from Chat. "Chat? Is everything okay?"

Okay, so first off I have NO IDEA what our favioret tomato head's home life is like and have no excuse for why I did that to him. In this fic LB and Chat both thought of each other as just friends but didn't realize that they were developing feelings for each other until curtain akuma attacks. For Ladybug that was after the kiss in Dark Cupid.
