Sure he would occasionally flirt with her every time they enter the battle a battle, Sure he has protected her by sacrificing himself several times, and sure he was ridiculously cheesy. But maybe that's what got her to maybe, kind of sort of, start liking him. It caught her off guard actually. It never crossed her mind that she would like him. But perhaps all that flirting and showing him how much he cared for Ladybug was finally starting to get to her. She still loved Adrien of course, but was she actually going anywhere with her love for him. They would hang out, but never alone, and they did the occasionally hello from time to time. But was it going anywhere? But what if he doesn't like her back if she was able to confess fully to Adrien, would he not accept her feelings, would he say it would be better if they just stayed friends no more no less. That in all honesty never crossed her mind before Alya mentioned it on Valentines day. What would she do, maybe move on, but the more she realized that she was falling for Cat Noir, the less love she felt for Adrien. It was easier for her to talk to Cat than it was to talk to Adrien, she could possibly have more meaningful conversations with him.
Every time they fought more akumas, the safer she felt around Cat, Before she was just comfortable around him, but still on guard to be ready for those flirtatious lines of his. But now, now for some unknown reason she has been rethinking and also over thinking everything. Yes she still wanted to love Adrien more but, she couldn't help it. Did she want to tell, Cat how she felt? It seems obvious that he won't reject her since he shows her how much he loves her. So instead of telling him, she was thinking about showing him instead. But the question was how, a kiss haha no. She would probably be too nervous to kiss him anyway, unless necessary, besides she wasn't ready for something like that yet, even though she did kiss him before but that was only to break a spell an akuma had placed on him, apparently he had no memory of the kiss, which was convenient for her. But was it convenient now?
She had planned showing him during their night patrol. But alas, she didn't encounter him. And she felt like it was never the right time to ask him when there was an akuma attack. She wanted to tell him with no interruptions what so ever.
She had called him out, he was in the middle of his patrol when she did. She asked him if it was alright for the two of them to meet up, and of course he agreed. They met up at the Eiffel tower because hey why not. As soon as Ladybug ah arrived so had Cat Noir.
"So, is there any reason for this late night meeting, Mi'ladybug." Yes, there was, she was going to tell him how she felt, before she decided to change her mind about telling him.
"Actually, there is, I wanted to talk to you about something." Of course that made Cat think. Why would she want to talk to him about something, did he do anything to hurt his love without realizing it? Was she going to tell him how she was tired of all the flirting. He did find it odd, because she had been acting a bit peculiar lately.
"Did I do anything wrong Mi'lady?" That stopped Ladybug's train of thought. And started a new one. Thinking it was probably suspicious of her to call him the the middle of the night to tell him how she felt with out him getting any ideas, thinking he did something wrong when he did nothing.
"No, no you didn't do anything wrong Cat, at least nothing I know of." She smiled at him while he sighed in relief.
"Glad to hear it, Mi'lady." But right before she would even catch that thought of how she was going to confess to him, there was a beeping sound. Cat's transformation was coming to an end.
"Sorry my love, it seems like our time is running out, and I have to head back soon anyway. See you soon my sweet." And with that he left, and she just stood there, disappointed in a way, because she couldn't tell him.
"Well," She sighed to herself. "There's always next time."
