Chapter 3

The night, despite it's dark facade, was inviting and bright with the moonlight glistening off the Seine and the streetlamps casting a faint orange glow onto the streets of Paris. Even at the ungodly hours of the morning, Paris was beautiful in every aspect.

It was a reason, one out of many, that Ladybug loved the city she protected, and loved how it always seemed to fill her with inspiration. Out of everywhere she could of lived, she was glad it was here. The one thing she could do without, though, was the light pollution which masked the stars that shone on the city, but even she realized that was a small price to pay for everything else Paris held.

Ladybug was sitting at the top of the Eiffel tower, a soft smile on her face as she gazed at the city below. It was patrol night, yet her and Chat had decided to take opposite ends of the city, agreed to meet back to report. It was around one in the morning, but she was still awake, energetic even, as ideas came to her in waves. Beaded halter top with scarlet accents...black pleated skirt, mid-thigh...a rose embroidered on the hem…

"Hello kitty." Ladybug said, still facing the city.

Chat groaned. "You seem to have cat me, my lady. I was hoping to scare you."

Ladybug stood up and turned to her partner, pretending not to notice the pun. "If you scared me, I would of probably fallen off." She said, pointing behind her to the edge of the tower.

Chat smirked. "Ah, but I would of caught you, my lady. I always do." He said, taking her hand and bring it up to his lips.

Ladybug simple rolled her eyes at the gesture. "I have no doubt that you would."

With that they sat down at the edge, at first simply relaying what had happened on patrol (nothing really, the most was Ladybug helping a cat down from a tree in which Chat responded with cat puns and comments about how she missed him), but soon that conversation died down and began their more traditional banter, talking about school and interests they shared (without giving anything away). It was like old friends catching up.

The conversation was broken by two sets of 'beeps' sounding from the two heros' Miraculeuses. They sighed and stood up, preparing themselves to leave. Personally neither wanted to go, having gotten into a deep conversation about the newest Mega Strike game, but Ladybug was still wanting to keep her identity a secret, and Chat Noir respected her wishes despite his want to know.

"So, I'll see you tomorrow for patrol, alright." Ladybug said, reaching for her yoyo.

Chat did his infamous smile. "Of course, my lady, wouldn't miss it, unless there is an akuma to deal with first."

Akuma...there had been one earlier today. She remembered it well, mostly because of how it had interrupted her lunch "date" that was not a date with Adrien that Nino had invited her and Alya along to, to which her and the blond model had been practically forced to sit together (they were up to something, she could feel it). She also remembered a nasty hit that Chat had taken for her, resulting in him getting repeatedly slammed into a wall, leaving his arm sore and most likely bruised. Chat had brushed it off during the battle, but afterwards even he couldn't hide the slight flinched when he raised said arm. They had to leave before Ladybug could ask if he was okay.

"Hows your arm doing?" She asked.

Chat blinked, not expecting the question until he remembered the battle from earlier that day. He rubbed the arm in question, truth be told it was still sore, but not as much as earlier. Luckily the bruise left was small, having been mostly protected by the suit. The injury would have been hard to explain to his friends…

Chat brightened up quickly, his confident facade back. "No worries, bugaboo, my arm is fine. In fact, you could say it's purr-fect."

Ladybug sighed at the pun. "Okay, now I know you're definitely fine now. Just…" She paused, wondering how to say it. Honestly, it worried her that Chat always seemed to take hits for her, regardless of the consequences. There were times where she thought he could of died because of them, but he does it regardless. "Just be careful, okay? You don't need to keep taking hits for me, you know. I can protect myself."

Chat understood what she was trying to say, all the unspoken words flying in between them. "I'll always be there to protect you, my lady, it's what I do, but," He bit his lip for a second, before softening his smile, "I'll try to be more careful in battles, for you bugaboo. I promise."

Ladybug smiled, a wave of relief covering her. "Thank you Chat." She said before whipping out her yoyo and swinging off as another beep resounded from her earrings.

She didn't look back to Chat's smirk fade into a sad smile.

She didn't notice his fingers crossed behind his back.

Oh Chat, he would do anything to protect his lady. Just rip out my heart already. Oh, there it is, pulsating on the floor.

Anyways, I hoped you liked it! I know it's been a while, but, once again, I'm balancing school, work, and this, and I can't give up any of them. Make sure though to favorite and follow this story if you want to read more! And review while you're at it! Send me questions, send me puns, send me a detailed explanation about how logarithms work (seriously, math is not my best subject...how do I have an A in it again?).

That's all for now, folks. I love you all, my kittens! PEACE!
