Marinette swung gracefully around her room, as if she was dancing. "Tikki, this is going to be amazing!"

The kwami smiled and said, "Mari, it's nice to see you happy again. Cat Noir really does make you happy."

"Well, I really do like Cat Noir," Marinette said, falling onto her bed in a haze. She was going on her first date with Cat Noir that night, and she couldn't wait. She silently hoped an akuma wouldn't attack. She decided she would pull Cat Noir somewhere and tell him she was Ladybug. A thought crossed her mind that she shouldn't but she couldn't help wishing.

At Adrien's house…

Adrien paced the floor. "Plagg, I think Marinette needs to know I'm Cat Noir during our date."

"Nope. Can't do that, you know that," Plagg said, munching on some cheese. "You could put Marinette in danger, and you could get your miraculous taken away."

"You're right," Adrien said, and he sat down on his couch.

"Yeah, I know I am. Also, what would you do without me?" Plagg hovered around Adrien's head. Adrien laughed. "I guess I should get ready for my date with Mari."

"Take your time," Plagg said, getting more cheese out of the cupboard.

Adrien grabbed a tie and set it on the couch. He then grabbed a bundle of flowers he had bought and chocolates. "Plagg, claws out!" Adrien felt a jolt up his body and was turned into Cat Noir. He tried to tie the tie around his neck, but it hung loosely. He grabbed the flowers and chocolates, looked at the door, and just to be safe, he locked it. He bounded out of his window, and jumped across rooftops just in time to land perfectly in front of Marinette's door. He knocked and Marinette raced down and pulled the door open.

"Cat!" Marinette gave him a hug and invited him in.

"Make sure she's home by midnight," was all Tom could muster through his excitement. Cat Noir handed Marinette the chocolates, and Marinette held them to her chest.

With a "thank you" to Cat Noir, Marinette handed the chocolates to her mom, and left with Cat Noir. They found their way to a fancy restaurant that is famous for being the most expensive but delicious.

Cat Noir opened the door for Marinette, and Marinette looked at him. "Are you rich? Or not going to pay?" Cat Noir laughed.

"You could say I'm rich, but I definitely will pay," Cat Noir said, with a small laugh. Marinette giggled, and walked. Neither of them knew that two eyes were watching them, with anger pushing through him. He had told Marinette he loved her before, but he didn't realize how much he loved her. It ached to see her walking in to a restaurant with a- with a- WITH A CAT! An akuma landed on his bracelet, and he was akumatised.
