a few months before the story took place...)

Marinette stood at the edge of her balcony with tears streaming down her face, how could Luka have done such a thing? Just leaving her all alone at the time when she needed him the most, she suddenly heard distant tapping and turned around to find Chat Noir, she jumped back slightly at the sudden appearance of him

"I didn't mean to frighten you Mari, just wanted to check and see my favourite lady is doing" Marinette turned her face before he could tell she was crying but it was no use, Chat climbed down from the balcony railing and gently hugged her, she explained how Luka had left her for another girl when she needed him the most and told Chat about how hard she was finding her relationships recently.

"So you- you've gotten your heart broken too?"

"Yeah... too many times"

Chat shuffled closer to Marinette and hugged her around her waist...

...this was where it all began

a/n: lmao I'm terrible at writing prologues/ intros but hey, at least I tried, I'm pretty sure the story title wouldn't have made much sense if I didn't add this..
