Dear Diary -

I seriously need to just force Chat to use his Cataclysm spell every time we have an Akuma attack. Because if he doesn't, as soon as we split, he decides to come visit the Dupain-Cheng household and I literally have about 10 secondsof a headstart on him every time. 10 seconds! Thankfully, that's usually enough...most days.

I could just not show up when I know he's coming over. Sure. But it only took me three times if doing that to decide that is was a really, really bad idea.

The first time was something pretty expected - he went to look for me. The only thing wrong with this was that he told my parents I was gone and they left to look for me (because they thought I had been home that whole time) and proceeded to call my ENTIRE CLASS to help locate me. When I walked through the bakery door 30 minutes later, no one was home. I called my parents...and was promptly grounded for a month for sneaking out and scaring everyone. Yeah, because it was MY fault no one thought to call MY PHONE.

The second time I had told my parents I was going out before leaving to fight the Akuma. So I thought I had bought myself some time. 30 minutes after the fight, I walk through the door and...Chat is sitting in between my parents on our sofa with snacks and popcorn and they were all watching "Ever After". It was the weirdest thing I have ever. seen.After these two, you'd think - you'd think - I would have learned my lesson. )llWell, you'd have thought wrong.

How long he was actually there...I don't even know. It had been a hard, tiring battle, and I was super tired, so I'm sure he was too (how he got by without having to use Cataclysm during that fight, I have no idea). Well, I mean, obviously he was, but we'll get to that. I had told my parents I was going out, and I thought I was in the clear when I walked in and Chat was nowhere to be found. It was pretty late, and I was exhausted, so I told my parents goodnight. My mom yelled something up to me, but I was really tired, so I just waved her off.

"Watch out for Chat! He's lying to your head."

I know. Whatever that means, right?

I should have listened better.

Because seriously, that boy not only looks like a cat, he sleeps like a cat.

As I found out when I yanked my covers up to get into my bed and there was someone already there! My MOTHER had let Chat Noir, suoerherk of PariS LIE IN MY BED. MY bed!! After several screams, angry hissing, and a pillow fight later, Chat Noir - laughing histerically, I might add - scampered out into the night.

Miffed, I was about to go down and tell off my mom for not even warning me...when i finally realized what she must have said earlier...

"Watch out for Chat! He's lying in your bed."

Thanks, Mom.

So now my bed smells like him. It has for two days now. It's actually quite soothing. And having the smell and therefore the though of him just being there, protecting me...well, I haven't slept that well like...ever.

I don't really know what to make about this most recent development. All I can really admit to is...I don't want that smell to go away.
