As Chat Noir he loved Ladybug, but as Adiren he well still loves Ladybug, in his mind he thought that it was silly to fall in love with someone he didn't even know. But at the same time he did know her. The usual what ifs would appear into his mind. What if ladybug and him actually knew each other in the civilian forms. And the love of his life was right in front of him this entire time. But its not like he would know or anything. But he wanted to know, he so desperately wanted to know. Its been a few months now that he's loved his masked heroine, he had his own way of showing her how much he loved her. Heck he never wanted to be separated from her. He wanted to spend as much time with ladybug as possible. In a way he always figured he was getting rejected by her, but that didn't stop him. And lately he has noticed how she was more comfortable around him than when they had first met. But aside from that, other what ifs had also appeared into his mind, what if she gets too comfortable with him that she doesn't even think of him as a love interest anymore, what if she ends up best friend zoning him or worse. What if she thinks of him as a brother! Ha haha, that's not bound to happen right?!
Hopefully not, it's not too later. But then again, those what ifs keep running around his mind. What if his love stays one sided, and doesn't move on from there? That would leave him even more heart broken than, being rejected. The more he thought about it, the more he realized it, if she never accepted his feelings, what would happen? Would he keep trying, or would he have to move on? Since he loves her the thought of moving on seems impossible, the only way someone can move on is, well falling in love with someone else.
How does someone fall in love?
How indeed?
"Alya how come you don't make a blog about Cat Noir ?"
That caught his attention, the mention of his alter ego, but that would mean?
"Now that you bring it up that is a good idea Marinette, I feel ridiculous that I don't have a separate blog for him, since he's usually around Ladybug." Marinette, in all honesty she was the last person he figured would talk about Cat Noir, he figured she was more into information about Ladybug like Alya.
"Yea, you could say I'm not kitten around about wanting to know more." She made a cat pun! A Cat PUN! Adrien loves cat puns! He just doesn't feel like it's appropriate for him to use them out of his alter ego form. It seem like he's found a new crush. But what if she doesnt like him now that it seems like she's a little too into Cat Noir? Then that would be a win, win right, wrong! Now other what if's are crossing his mind. Some that might be even worse that the last thoughts, what if Marinette finds out he's Cat Noir and not like him anymore? But she does have a crush on him, as Adrien it's so obvious, especially how she would freak out, just by talking to him and the way she would get nervous that she studded the word hello, and that she can't keep a minute conversation with him with out her internally screaming and it showing that she was filled with glee. That's how he was able to tell that she liked him so far.
"Oh, morning Adiren,"
"Morning," He responded with out thinking, as usual, then noticed that good morning wasn't a familiar good morning he was used to. Did Marinette, just say good morning, with out freaking out today? He slightly turned, making it look like he was stretching to see if he caught a glimpse of Marinette grinning like a kid at a toy store, which she usually would do after talking to him. But alas, she didn't she just started to talk to Alya about Cat Noir. There was a feeling building up in his chest now, was. Was he getting jealous of his hero self? Through out the day, Marinette would calmly talk to him, as if it was child's play. No studdering, no happy goofy grins, no sign of her being nervous at all. Did she not like him anymore? Later that week it got to the point where she was calling Cat Noir great. He loved the attention he was getting, even though at the same time he wasn't getting attention at all.
And when ever Marinette would try to talk to him, he would distract himself or make it look like he was busy, he didn't know why he was doing that, but he was getting a bit nervous now.
He wouldn't admit it out loud but, he missed how Marinette was before. Now that he looked back on it, she was rather cute when she did that. And wondering when the next time she would act like that around him. If there was even going to be a next time.
