A/N: Usually, almost everything I write for ML (that isn't an AU) is set midway or just before the end of season three because afterwards, the story becomes very complex and I can't really fit in any ideas in between. But this drabble is set after episode 'Determination' in season five! A rare feat by me hahaha. But don't expect much from me for stories that are set after season three because I preferred the status quo around then rather than now (nothing against the show or anyone who enjoys what they're watching; I'm enjoying myself a lot too and love what we're given but as I said, it's a little hard to come up with these fun drabbles and stories in the middle of a very complex plotline (which is also why I don't write stories for complex shonen anime that I adore like Chainsaw Man, Jujutsu Kaisen and so on)).
Anyways, if you haven't watched season five yet then be warned that this chapter will have spoilers. Otherwise, enjoy!

If Chat Noir didn't have his head in the clouds and wasn't busy trying to keep his bright red blush down(and failing miserably), he would have noticed the scrutinising glare and the pretty pink pout Marinette wore as soon as he gently placed her down on the floor after swiftly saving her from today's Akuma's violent rampage. His kitten ears were adorably flat against his lush, golden hair bashfully and his belt tail constantly swirled into very obvious heart shapes without his knowledge or permission.
'How DARE that tail make heart shapes in front of someone who isn't Ladybug!?' Marinette continued to seethe internally, her partner's sweet and kind words deaf on her ears as she continued to fume immaturely.
"Stay safe, Marinette. I wouldn't want anything to happen to you." He confessed tenderly, his feline emerald greens so big and glittering with all sorts of goodness that had her heart skip a million times more beats than normal. With a cute salute and visible hearts radiating around his gooey eyes, Chat Noir vaulted away towards the battle using his baton, leaving behind a grumbling Marinette Dupain-Cheng and a severely annoyed Tikki the Kwami who side-eyed her wielder with frustration.
.
"Did you see that Tikki!? He spoke to me with at least 0.025 more adoration than he usually does with Ladybug! And his cheeks were at least two shades redder compared to the last battle where Ladybug called him 'cute'! How dare he be so affected by me! What a two-timing cat! Unbelievable!" Marinette crossed her arms with annoyance, not even glancing at the little Goddess whose eye twitched incredulously.
"Marinette. You and Ladybug are the same person. So what if he's treating your civilian side sweetly- well, with more sweetness than usual?" The polka-dotted companion should have expected the comically fuming face her wielder shot at her.
"Yeah, but HE doesn't know that! Hmmph! So much for all those love declarations of his! What a flirt! What would our now non-existent children think of him!?"
"But he was only telling you to be safe...and you're also in love with him too, right? Isn't it a good thing that he treats you so well and lovingly on either side of your mask?"
"But Tikki! He only called me 'My Lady' fifteen times yesterday! Compared to the usual eighteen times! And his smile was one millimetre shorter yesterday when I laughed at his silly joke! He doesn't love me anymore! Even though we got married and had four babies and he grew a moustache that I didn't tell to shave off since it looked atrocious on him!" At this point, Tikki was more impressed by her bug's incredibly ridiculous thought process rather than being irked by her silly behaviour.
"Didn't you tell him that the dream was manipulated by Monarque and that the whole thing was silly in the first place?"
"I'm going to die alone surrounded by cats and posters of Chat Noir and have a hamster named Loneliness!"
.
Tikki gave up.

A/N: I've noticed that the mass majority of the remaining drabbles I have left are focused on either Adrinette or Ladynoir. Interesting. OH WELL. It's not like anyone's complaining LOL. Lemme know what you think of this silly drabble! See ya!
