Thank You:
ae11021: You're very welcome then. I agree completely, it's sad how Will Smith's film Hitch is so underrated. I have written more for it, another one-shot and a crossover. Plus more planned in the works. However, you may want to check out. The Hitch Aftermath by 2020's Purwhite Sultan. For some unknown reason their Hitch story doesn't appear on the category. Thank you for the Favorite/Follow here. As well as the Author Favorite/Follow too.
"Adrien, you need to eat something sweetheart."
"Come on my favorite cousin, mom's right."
Adrien stares blankly at Felix and his aunt Amelie Graham de Vanily from a cross the table. This son and mother duo sits close trying to smile at him.
Her green eyes side glance a bulter, she nods with a polite smile. But left hand slightly waves dismissing him. Felix wordlessly raises out his chair on his mother's left side with her at the head of the table.
It's been 2 weeks since Adrien quit being Cat Noir and left Paris for London. The pain and numbness was still raw, sure Ladybug handled Syren on her own after she left him there on that roof. Plagg's pleading didn't make it easier but he'd had enough.
"I'm sure there'd be another Cat Noir to give me cheese. . . But he won't be you."
True Plagg's words made him feel like he mattered as Cat Noir. Still all the mistrust and false affection. Even by the people of Paris, Cat Noir was unimportant, unworthy, unappreciated and a complete sidekick.
XXXXXXXX
"This pity party is over. Adrien I'm thrilled you got away from Uncle. But tell me what's really going on. It can't be just his controlling you. Someone else hurt you." Felix didn't shout but he might as well have, looking to Adrien on spare in their now shared bedroom.
Both emerald green eyes do lock, Adrien sighs sitting up from his laid back position on the headboard. A tiny smile does finally take his handsome face.
"Thanks for the concern and you're right, it's not just him. Really tho Felix, no one can help with this. Want to shoot some hoops or what about our old karate competitions?"
Adrien tries to distract Felix. Said twin lookalike cousin sighs himself. Knowing Adrien, he won't admit his pain until pushed. Felix nods silently letting Adrien win this round. Dropping the subject for now.
"Be warned I continued practicing when you quit. So sure mock karate competition it is."
The two smirk at one another, smugly.
XXXXXXXX
Three full hours of brawling, neither giving up. Both sweaty and hard breathing, still two cousins can't help smile and laugh.
"I'll take a shower, then your turn." Felix with the back of his right hand wipes sweat off his brow. Adrien nods just sitting on the floor, two finger gunning Felix as he walks out.
Taking the opportunity, Adrien opens the balcony doors. The mid-day air as it gets close to 9PM feels heavenly on his tired but relaxed body. Emerald green eyes glance ahead just taking in the peaceful view of London before him.
When in the distance, he narrows his eyes at approaching black figure jumping on the roof tops. He steps back cautiously but truly still cat curious. More so as A GIRL CAT NOIR LANDS GENTLY IN FRONT OF HIM?!
"Cat Noir, finally I've found you." Her voice rings familiar bells in his head. Bright green sharp cat eyes shine in affection as her smile makes him return it.
The black cat ears atop her blunette bob-cut hair twitch. She can hear let alone feel his excitement. Casually walking up to him, her right black gloved hand in green claws caresses his left cheek.
"Do- do I know you?" He rhetorically questions still with a smile.
"Plagg told me the trurh. He wouldn't let anyone else, hold the ring not even Ladybug." This Black Cat girl leans up on her light heeled boots to press her lips against his right cheek replacing her hand there.
"The name is Neko Zuki. Plagg Claws In." She states as the transformation drops, to reveal Kagami Tsurugi as Adrien felt it was her.
"Cat Noir may not want to return. But hiss Cat Lover will damn the city of idiocy if he is ever mistreated again."
Adrien pulls her into a tight embrace. "I'm sorry for my mistreatment of you. Thank you. . . My Darling."
Kagami blushes rosy in the face, burying her hotness inside his right shoulder blade as Plagg rests atop his shaggy blond head, beyond happy he had hiss best Kitten back.
THE END!
Second Author's Note: Yes, my lovelies I know I said off the grid until Thanksgiving. But most of you should know me by now, if inspiration hits I must write, right? *Giggles*
Third Author's Note: No one deserves Plagg/Black Cat Miraculous but Kagami if Adrien is unavailable.
