P.o.v Chat Noir. Part one of two.

It was raining. Again. It was around mid may and the rain wouldn't stop. It had been pouring all week. The rainwater heavy though, just a constant light drizzle. It was still dangerous though. As a cat, people would think that Chat Noir didn't like it. But he did. That is when the rain is not the obvious cause of his lady's sickness.

"Achoo!" She sneezed for the hundredth time that night.

Chat Noir laughed, "Bless you, my lady."

"Th-" She sneezed again, "Thank you."

"I really don't think you should be out here, Bugaboo. You'll only get sicker. Paris needs their hero in purr-fect shape to stop Hawkmoth."

"I'm fine chatton. I just have a small cold."

He ignored her,though he did catch her calling him chatton. "And this rain definitely isn't helping. You should be resting in your bed and eating hot soup. But don't eat any soup I made because that will probably kill you."

She laughed, "I'm fine, kitty. I feel ready to take on the world. I feel-" Halfway through her speech she sneezed, which made her step back. Somehow she fell and then sneezed again. "See? I'm fine" She weakly muttered while she wiped her nose with a tissue."I'm Just a tad bit more clumsy because of the rain." Earlier she had used her lucky charm for some tissues. Chat knew that might not be the smartest decision. Hopefully Hawkmoth won't send out any Akumas.

"Okay. That's enough. You are going home." He said firmly. "Come on get up. Actually don't I'll carry you." He scoops her up bridal style and pulls out his baton. "Now hold on."He knew he couldn't actually take her home but he could at least get her somewhere warm. Maybe Alya would let them crash, or Chloe. That would be a last resort though.

But before he could move, he heard a soft beeping noise. He frowned and glanced at his ring. The paw shape was still completely full, so it must be ladybug. He checked one of her earrings, brushing some of her wet hair back. She only had one blinking spot left. Of course! She used her lucky charm. She would have only had a couple minutes before she transformed back. She must have not noticed her mistake with her cold. She mumbled, "What are you doing chatton? I can walk perfectly fine."

"You mean purr-fectly" He joked, trying to keep the worry from his voice. As he fixed her hair back into place, his hand brushed against her cheek. Hot. He could feel the heat even through his glove. This wasn't good. "Ladybug you're-" He was interrupted by a loud beeping and a bright pink flash. Then he saw the coughing, soaked girl in his arms.

Marinette.

Well shoot. He couldn't even stop to think about this life-changing discovery. It was too much to handle. His lady was sick. His princess was sick. And he needed to help her. Freaking out about how they're the same person can come after.

Carefully, he made his way to her home. The rain made using his baton slightly more difficult than normal. After landing on her balcony, he went to open her trapdoor, but it was locked. Damn, he thought, I have no way to get inside. He didn't have anywhere else to take her and he doubted her parents would take kindly to him bringing in their sick daughter who is probably supposed to be in bed.

Suddenly a small red and black creature flew out of Marinette's bag. "Here, I'll help you." She chirped. She went through the door then unlocked it. "Now let's get her warmed up. I'm Tikki by the way. Marinette's kwami."

Again, the black cat pushed away his shock at meeting ladybug's kwami. It wasn't important right now. Getting Mari warm was.

As Chat Noir laid her on the bed then began to dry her off she began to mumble, "Tikki? How are you here? I never had you detransform me…"

The kwami smiled kindly, "Shhh. Just go to sleep. We'll answer all your questions later."

"We..?" She whispered right before she fell asleep.

"Okay,"Now Tikki's voice was all business,"We need to get her dry and warm. Her clothes are wet so get them off her."

Chat obeyed. He only blushed a bit as he pulled off her clothes, leaving her in only her underwear and bra. Which were very pretty even soaked through. She didn't even move as he stripped her. She was dead to the world. That thought was quickly shaken from Chat's brain.

He gestured at her undergarments, "Okay, I realize we should probably take these off too, but I would like to respect her privacy. So can you do it.?"

Tikki smiled at that. "Of course I will. Plagg chose a good person."

"Thank you." He breathed while rubbing the back off his neck. A thing he only really did as Adrien when he was embarrassed.

"You're welcome. Now turn around. I'll tell you when she's decent."

After a while, Tikki said he could look again. Marinette was now covered with a blanket, though she was now shivering. "Is she wearing anything under the blanket?" Chat inquired.

"Yes, I managed to get her into a robe. I am going to go downstairs and get some food. Can you get her warmer, please?"

"Of course."

As Tikki left, Chat examined their situation. After some thought, he decided to use his own body heat for warmth. Carefully he laid himself down besides Mari. Right before he touched the blanket he realized that he was still wet. Quickly, he de-transformed then toweled off his hair. His clothes were already dry because he never went out into the rain as Adrien. He rolled under the blankets then pressed himself to her side. He wrapped his arm around her waist, and that's when it finally hit him.

Marinette has blue eyes and black hair.

Ladybug has blue eyes and black hair.

Ladybug is Marinette.

Marinette is Ladybug.

He is in love with Ladybug.

He tries to fight off his growing feelings for Marinette.

Marinette is one of his best friends.

Ladybug is Marinette who sits right behind him in class.

Ladybug is Marinette who is an amazing, adorable person.

Marinette is Ladybug who is a confident, beautiful person.

They are the same.

And he loves her.

All of her.

He softly kissed her head. "Get better soon, Princess."

Many hours later when Mari was deep asleep and warm, Chat transformed and went home, a smile on his lips and a plan in his head.

Thank you for reading! Please tell me what you think.

Love you all!
