Just a normal day in Paris for Ladybug and Cat Noir! This is set after season 3. It's just an easy read and just part one. Part two is coming soon!
"No more evil doing for you little Akuma!" Ladybug snatched the purple butterfly in mid air with her yo-yo. "Bye bye, butterfly." Everybody in a range of 20 meters, including Cat Noir, watched the white butterfly fly into the sky. "Miraculous!" Ladybug threw a red and black poke-a-dotted pillow into the air and a cloud of ladybugs burst into the air. The near broken window repaired after the ladybugs flew past it. "Are you ok, Mister?"
"I..." The black haired, middle aged man shocked himself after realising what he had just done. Guilt shot through his body. "Ladybug... I..." lost for words he paused to think to himself. "I hope you can forgive me Ladybug."
"No need to apologise, everybody makes mistakes." Ladybug reassured him.
"That was paw-sitivity purrfect, M'lady!" His ring began to buzz. "I'd better be out! Cya, Bugaboo!" He saluted Ladybug before jumping off the building.
Ladybug rolled her eyes at Cat Noirs nonsense, then turned to the man once more. "Do you need a lift home? Or are you right to walk home after I get you off the building."
"I should be right to walk home. And like you said... after I get off the building..." The man looked over the edge to see just how high he really was.
Ladybug walked up to him and got a grip around his waist. "Hold on!" She warned him. She leaped off the edge and fell three stories down before making a net with her yo-yo at last minute. The man landed softly, unlike Ladybug. A shot of pain ran through her left ankle when she landed crooked. She was able to hide it well, because no civilians noticed the pain she was in.
Through gritted teeth, she said farewell to the troubled man. "Just make sure to stay positive!" She called from afar. She was trying to avoid walking, knowing that she couldn't with her surely sprained ankle. She took a step in the direction of the bakery, before catching herself before meeting the ground.
Adrien noticed her while double backing after transforming, and ran to her rescue. "Ladybug! Are you ok?" He called whilst approaching.
"Just fine!" She said in a hope to not draw any attention.
"Are you sure? I saw you fall awkwardly." Adrien wasn't giving up in trying to help her.
"I..." She tried to take another step. Pain rushing through her leg, she fell over to find herself in Adrien's arms. Both blushed out of control. Ladybug tried to catch her senses. "Thank you... but I'm fine."
"You don't look fine. Your ankle looks sprained." He offered her his hand. "Here, let me help you."
Ladybug was shoot with fear when she heard a beeping of her earrings. "I'm running out of time!" She told Adrien. "I need to get out of here."
"My house isn't far. If I get you there quick, you can recharge!" Adrien told her in a rush. She had about three minutes left until she transformed back, and Adrien's plan was the best thing to do at that moment.
"Fine..." She didn't want to, but it was the best choice.
"Here." He raised her arm and placed it around his shoulder for support.
Ladybug limped to the Aggress mansion with the help of Adrien. They made their way through the mansion and into Adrien's bedroom without being noticed.
"You're about to detransform! Go into my bathroom!" Adrien pointed to the door to the left when they entered his room knowing she only had seconds left.
"Thank you!" She hopped her way to the bathroom, entered it, then ran out of time after shutting the door. She took a seat on the edge of the bathtub to save herself from balancing.
"That was a close one!" Tikki declared. "If Adrien didn't help you, your identity would have been revealed! It's even at risk now!"
"I'm sorry Tikki. I just landed wrong." Marinette explained. She reached into her bag and took out a pink macaroon. "Eat up. I can only come out in my costume, otherwise Adrien will figure out my identity."
"Are you ok, M'la- Ladybug." He stopped himself from saying 'M'lady', but only just. He lent on the door of the bathroom so that he could hear her answer.
"Apart from having a sprained ankle, fine." She answered him. "Just give me a few moments, then I'll be out of your hair."
"I don't mind. I enjoy your company anyway." Adrien said.
Marinette looked flustered after the complement. "Uhhhh... thanks?" She said unsure of what to say otherwise.
"Finished!" Tikki informed Marinette.
"Good. Tikki, Spots On!" Marinette transformed into Ladybug in a short few seconds.
"So your kwami's name is Tikki?" Adrien attempted to make small talk.
"Wait! How do you know about kwamis!?" Ladybug asked surprised.
"Umm..." Adrien was stuck on the spot. "Remember... you gave me one... I think his name was... Sass." It was hard to remember the kwami's name, considering he was use to Plagg, but he couldn't say that because it would reveal his identity.
Ladybug hobbled her way out the door. "Yeah, I did give you one didn't I? I forgot about that. I guess it was the wrong Miraculous for you, because you would make a perfect superhero.
Plagg was hiding in his cheese draw and rolled his eyes at their idiocy.
Adrien couldn't help but notice how much Ladybug's ankle was bothering her. "What are you going to do about your ankle?" He asked.
"I'll figure it out." She told him.
With quick thinking, Adrien dove into his draw. He reached in and brought out a Ladybug shirt. He knelt down and put his hand out and asked for her ankle. "If I may?" She gently placed her ankle in his hands. "This may hurt a little." He warned. Adrien tightly wrapped the shirt around her ankle. She flinched, but only temporary because she trusted Adrien. "There we go. It's only temporary, but it won't be too noticeable because it matches your suit!"
"I'd better be off." She told him. She didn't want to leave, but she kinda had to.
"You can exit out of my window." He guided her to the window that he jumps out whenever he's Cat Noir.
She gave him a smile before jumping onto the windowsill. "Thanks for all your help. If it wasn't for you, my identity would have been revealed." She jumped off the windowsill and use her yo-yo to swing her way to the bakery. She was fine up until the point that she needed to land.
"Gah!" She shrieked in pain. "Ouch. At least Adrien's shirt is working." A sudden realisation came to awaken her. "Ahh, Adrien~" She told herself. "Tikki, spots off."
Tikki looked down at her left ankle. "Adrien sure was smart to think of using a shirt as a support, but you're going to need to do something about your ankle."
"But it's Adrien's, why would I take it off?" She said lost in love.
"Marinette." Tikki said in a hope to grab her attention away from Adrien.
"I'm sorry, Tikki. I just can't help it." She started walking to her bed forgetting about her ankle. "Ouch!" She cried.
Tikki heard footsteps coming and quickly hid. The door suddenly swung open. "Marinette! Are you ok!?" Tom rapidly asked. When he saw her laying on the floor grabbing her ankle he knew that she'd hurt herself in some way.
"He didn't need to take me to the hospital." Marinette told Tikki.
"He just cares about you, Marinette." Tikki reassured her.
"I know, but now I have a splint." She looked down at her splint. A wave of dread hit her. "And they took Adrien's shirt!"
"Oh, Marinette." Tikki said.
