Well, I was going to do 12 Days of Christmas but Yellow 14 sent me this list of prompts for Christmas Fluff Writing Challenge and I couldn't resist!
It's the first time I've attempted anything like this (apart from Not Just A Friend but that was for 4 days not 31!) so I hope I do a good job for you all! Daily updates are what I'm aiming for but if its not completed in time don't hate me. I am still working on my other stories too.
Here's to a hectic December!
1. It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas
Ladybug gazed excitedly over the crowd at the bottom of the Eiffel Tower. There were small Christmas trees dotted about the area below, twinkling lights on the buildings in the city, and snow had just started to fall. The first of December had come around quick, and the festive season had most definitely been thrusted upon the city of Paris.
Christmas songs playing on the sound system had everyone singing along, and one thing was certain: it was most definitely beginning to look a lot like Christmas. There was only one job left to do, for herself and her partner in black.
Ten...
Nine...
Eight...
Ladybug and Chat Noir had been asked to turn on the Christmas lights at the Eiffel Tower. After such a terrible year of being plagued by Akuma after Akuma, the Mayor had decided the city needed something to look forward to.
This was it.
Seven…
Six…
People had turned out in the masses, and Ladybug and Chat Noir were feeling very festive with their Christmas hats and tinsel garlands draped around their necks. The green eyed, blonde hero bounced on the balls of his feet with childlike excitement. Joyfully waving at the people below and posing with his arm around his lady's shoulders.
Ladybug beamed at her partner.
Five…
Four…
Their hands ready on the impressively large switch twitched as the countdown neared its end. The red and black hero bumped Chat's shoulder to bring his attention to her. His green gaze fixated on the mischievous gleam that twinkled from her bright blue. A jot of excitement sent butterflies swarming through his abdomen, 'is she looking at me like I think she is?' The leather bound hero thought hopefully.
Ladybug bit her lip as her smile widened.
Three…
Two…
The Mayor was happily standing next to them as the countdown visual was replaced by the trio on the big screens dotted around to give the audience a better look at the scene. Ladybug had wanted to do this for a while. To surprise her Chaton in the best way. A way that would leave him speechless, taking his breath away and standing on legs of jelly.
The same effect he had started to have on her with a kiss to her knuckles in recent months.
One…
"Joyeux Noel!"
The crowd cheered as the hero duo pressed down on the switch simultaneously while the Mayor reached into the air with both arms. Gigantic trails of gold and red sparks flew off the side of the iconic Parisian landmark as the tower was illuminated in all her glory. The sight of La Dame de Fer shining brightly captivated all but two of the audience.
Those two were captivated by each other.
As soon as the switch had been pressed, Ladybug straightened up and cupped her partner's cheek, bringing him to stand quickly beside her. His green eyes tracing the soft features highlighted by the lights surrounding them, before his gaze lingered on her lips.
Brushing the area where mask met skin on his cheek, Ladybug reached up on her tiptoes and captured his lips with hers. Feeling one hand pull her close as it deliberately clung to the small of her back, his other hand held her nape, tilting her head to deepen their connection.
Dipping her low as her free hand caressed the top of his strong arm, the heroes shared their first real kiss. Ladybug's fingers felt his bicep tenderly through the leather, as he held her securely in place while their lips moved together in synchrony, her gloved hand splaying in his blonde unkempt locks.
The cheers for the lights soon morphed into even louder whoops of encouragement when the camera frame on the screen focused on on the two Parisian heroes who were currently lost to each other. The blush resting lightly on Ladybug's cheeks intensified when she realised the reaction their passionate kiss had caused and they broke the contact between them.
Ladybug coyly giggled as Chat kept her in place and rested his forehead on hers, the love he held for the woman in his arms clear for the world to see.
"That was unexpected M'Lady," Chat breathlessly stated while she bit her lip shyly up at him.
Bringing her fingers to her lips, she giggled up at him. Blue sapphires gazed at him lovingly, while half lidded green hue orbs peered at her under an inquisitively raised brow."Mon Chaton," she caressed his face, "it's been a long time coming."
He smiled broadly barely hiding his glee at her response. Their lips connected once more, bringing their audience into a frenzied state of joyous celebration. Standing up straight, Chat brought Ladybug into his chest as they bashfully giggled into each other.
The Mayor smiled excitedly at them both, "it's about time you two," he playfully wiggled his finger at them before turning to address the crowd.
"Here's to a Joyeux Noel all!"
Take it easy!
