WARNING there is
-Ladrien
-Sassy Marinette
-Identity reveals
-And sickening amounts of fluff in the chapter below
You've been warned.
Marinette could still feel Chat's hands on her back, his lips on her skin, as she was bounding through Paris, swinging high above the roof tops. Tonight was a patrol night, and frankly, Marinette didn't know how she was going to be able to contain herself. She knew what was going to happen, his lips were going to tease her and taunt her and she would want to kiss him. And then he would be very confused, because Ladybug wasn't the one he had made out with in the rain...as far as he knew. Marinette sighed, this was going to be a long night.
When she reached the roof top where they were going to meet, Marinette wasn't surprised to see Chat Noir already there, sitting on the edge of the roof, marveling at the city lights. His golden hair blew softly in the wind and even from her vantage point in the dark she could see the lines where his suit met pure muscle. Marinette took a deep breath before approaching the boy. Why did Chat always have to be early?
"Good evening My Lady." Chat said, still not turning around. 'Advanced hearing, right,' Marinette thought to herself as she took a seat next to the leather clad hero.
"Good evening Mon Minou." Marinette replied. She made sure she didn't look at him, because if she did, she wouldn't be able to look away. "How have you been?"
"Great." It was a simple answer, but it warmed Marinette's heart to know that she had a part in why he felt so good.
"Hmmm, and why is that?" Marinette knew she was fishing for compliments about herself none the less but at the moment she didn't care. Chat smiled, his eyes softening as he gazed out at the city. Marinette felt herself blush and quickly looked away.
"I-I met a girl." the way he had said that simple sentence made it sound like Chat couldn't believe the words that just came out of his mouth
"Oooh, tell me about this girl." 'And by this girl I mean me, but you don't have to know that yet.' Marinette leaned closer, anticipating what Chat would say about the girl he'd been locking lips with in the rain.
"Where do I start," Chat said, looking up at the sky as if he were contemplating a huge life decision. "She's wonderful, beautiful and kind. She doesn't even care that she doesn't know who I am, she still likes me." Chat said. Marinette felt the pride bubble within her.
"She sounds nice." Marinette said, making sure she didn't let him know that the girl he was talking about was sitting right next to him.
"She is. And the best part of it is that she likes me as Chat," Chat started. "But she'd said she was in love with my civilian self, not that she knows it's me anyway." In that moment everything stopped. Marinette froze, the world stopped spinning and she felt like she was about to pass out. Chat was Adrien? Adrien was Chat? Marinette had to force those pieces to fit together because none of it added up, well none of it added up in that moment anyway, but as she thought about it, she saw the similarities. Chat and Adrien had similar hair, though Chat's much more wild, Adrien had little Chat moments that she had never noticed until now, like when he would make a joke or a pun. Same height, same build, same voice, same boy. Then something else hit her. 'HOLY SHIT I KISSED ADRIEN AGRESTE IN THE RAIN!'
Chat must have seen how pale she was because he suddenly spoke. "My Lady are you okay?" 'How did I not notice they have the SAME voice?!' it took Marinette a minute before she looked up at Chat...Adrien?...Chat.
Then a wicked idea came to mind.
"I'm fine Chat, just really tired, I didn't sleep well last night." 'liar' Most people probably would have thought, 'oh my gosh, Marinette Dupain-Cheng just found out the love of her life and the other love of her life are the same person, she must be freaking the fuck out' Well Marinette had a little freak out in the beginning, but Marinette wasn't going to lie, she'd always had a bit of a mischievous side, probably from spending so much time with a cat. Now that she knew that Adrien was Chat, she was definitely going to enjoy it before he figured out she knew, or who she was. "You know Chat, maybe we should end patrol early tonight, I want to get home and get some sleep. Is that okay with you?" Marinette said. Chat bowed, taking one of Marinette's hands and pressing his lips to her knuckles.
"Of course My Lady." Chat Noir released Marinette's hand and was off, heading towards what Marinette knew was the Agreste Mansion. She would give him plenty of time to get there and detransform. But little did Adrien know that he was getting a visit from Ladybug tonight, Marinette could practically hear Tikki giggling in her head.
Adrien had slipped silently into his bedroom through his window, detransforming and letting Plagg break into the stash of Camembert. He couldn't get the events of the night out of his head. Why did Ladybug appear so surprised when he was talking about Marinette? He was going to ask Plagg what he thought of it but when he looked over to the cabinet where the Camembert was stored, he noticed Plagg wasn't there. He didn't get a chance to ask why when his question was answered. A tap on Adrien's window made him turn around, staring in shock at the sight before him. Ladybug was hanging upside down from her yo-yo right outside. Quickly Adrien walked over and opened the window and stared at the girl. What happened to wanting to go home and get some sleep?
"L-Ladybug, w-what are you doing here so late?" Adrien asked, subtly looking around to make sure Plagg had truly disappeared. He turned back to Ladybug.
"Hi there, Adrien, was it?" Ladybug asked, making sure she got his name right.
"U-um, yes, come in." Adrien said. He mentally kicked himself for stuttering. He was starting to sound like Marinette. What would Marinette say if she knew there was another girl in his bedroom, the hero of Paris, Ladybug, none the less.
Ladybug slipped into the dark room, opting to sit on the window sill as Adrien stared at her dumbfounded. "What? Cat got your tongue?" Ladybug said. Adrien had half a mind to laugh at the pun, but he was a little less than focused right now. The girl who had been the first to steal his heart was sitting right in front of him. Her legs were crossed over each other, adding just a little more grace to her figure. Her hair was in its signature pigtails, slightly tousled from getting here, Adrien presumed. Her eyes were ocean blue, glittering in the little moonlight that reached them. She had a smirk on her lips, her perfectly kissable lips. Adrien found himself staring at them, what would they feel like pressed against his own, then he stopped. He couldn't just kiss Marinette, rather passionately at that, and then think about how it would be kissing Ladybug. It's like cheating. Though he and Marinette weren't exactly a couple, they'd only kissed once and it was really kind of a spur of the moment thing. They weren't exactly official. With that in mind, Adrien channeled his inner Chat Noir.
"May I ask what brings a lady such as yourself here?" Adrien asked, struggling to keep the stutter out of his voice. This was really hard without the mask, especially since Ladybug was staring right through him like he was a glass door.
"I was on my way home and I thought I would drop by to see a handsome boy." Adrien squeaked. Handsome boy...had it always been hot in here, and why was it suddenly so hard to breathe. When Adrien looked at her again, his mouth went dry. Ladybug was biting at her bottom lip, like she was thinking. 'STOP ADVERTISING YOUR LIPS WOMAN!' Adrien was a dead man, and he knew it. He just hoped Ladybug couldn't see the mess that she was reverting him into to. "Anyway, I just thought I would say hi, but I really do have to go now."
"O-of course, even Ladybugs need their sleep." Adrien said, the last of his calm and collected appearance cracking. Ladybug only smiled, standing from her sitting position and walking over to Adrien. She placed a hand on his shoulder and leaned in close to whisper,
"See you soon," Ladybug placed a light kiss on Adrien's cheek before she pulled away. She was making her way toward Adrien's window when he grabbed her wrist. Adrien could only take so much teasing, because he kissed her, and it was by no means gentle. He crashed their lips together, and he had expected Ladybug push him away, pull away at least, but she didn't. She wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling herself up higher to kiss him deeper. Her lips were soft and familiar. Adrien wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her as close as he could without crushing her. The first woman he had fallen in love with was kissing him like he was the love of his life. He was going to feel guilty about this later, but right now he didn't care. He would explain it to Marinette, and if she was angry, she had every right to be. But right now he was letting out the frustration of three years of rejection. He hadn't realized just how desperate he was for Ladybug's touch, because when her spandex clothed fingers found their way into his golden hair he was gone for. He had to take breaths between kisses. This was nothing like when he kissed Marinette, that was sweet, gentle and warm. This, this was desperate, passionate and hot. It felt like the temperature of the room had gone up a good ten degrees. Her touch, her lips, her breath on his hot skin, the affection that was pouring out of her in waves.
Adrien reached up, pulling her hair loose of it's restraints of her hair ties, letting them fall to the ground as he entangled his fingers in the black locks. He'd never been so breathless. The feel of her hair in his hands brought a memory with it. Of another girl with blue eyes, the way her hair swirled around her head as she hugged against a fluffy cat pillow. The way she curled around him and clung to him like he was a life line. But her name wasn't Ladybug, her name was Marinette.
Adrien flinched away like Ladybug had burned him. He looked at her, just realizing he had pressed her against the window in their fight for dominance of the kiss. Her hair was a mess around her head and her lips were swollen from being abused by his own. She leaned against the window, her eyes full of concern.
"Adrien, are you okay?" Ladybug asked, taking a step toward him. He just looked down at her, staring into her eyes for a moment before speaking.
"I can't do this," Adrien said, it was almost a whisper, like he was scolding himself. He couldn't do this and have a clear conscience.
"You can't do what?" Ladybug asked.
"This," Adrien said, looking Ladybug in the eyes. "I can't do this, not to her. I can't do this to Marinette."
Marinette stopped. She had thought that Chat Noir, Adrien, had liked her, but it was only now that she realized that he more than liked her. He loved her. He loved her enough to force himself to stop kissing Ladybug, the girl who Chat proclaimed his undying love for every other day without fail. She had to tell him, she couldn't just kiss him with the mask on and expect him to not feel guilty about it, as far as he knew, Ladybug and Marinette were two different people. She refused to do that to him.
"I don't think Marinette would be very upset with you, since it's a little hard to cheat on her with her, Mon Minou." Marinette said, nervous as to what the boy would say. Adrien seemed to freeze before he slowly looked at her, she felt like she was being scrutinized by a hundred people with the way he was looking at her, memorizing her features, her details, like he was putting a puzzle together in his head. Nervously she released her transformation in a flash of pink light, leaving only Marinette in Ladybug's place. "Surprise?" she said, hesitantly. Marinette couldn't remember a time when she had been more scared than she was right this second.
"I'm sorry," Marinette started, suddenly finding the ground very interesting. "I should have told you sooner, but I didn't want to put you in danger like that and when I realized you were Chat Noir I-mmph!" in a second Adrien's lips were on her's again in a desperate kiss that made it obvious he was worried this was a dream and that none of it was real. She wrapped her arms around him as if to reassure him that it was real. One of his hands caressed her cheek while the other was tangled in her hair once again.
This kiss was different from the previous, when she had been wearing the mask. No this one was far more passionate. It was like the kiss when she was Ladybug, and the kiss when she was Marinette and they were in the rain had come together to form a complete moment. Marinette had never felt more complete than she had in that moment. "I love you," Adrien said into the kiss, in between the moments where their lips relentlessly crashed against each other. But as a few minutes past, the kiss became less desperate, and more gentle, Adrien savoring the feeling of her lips on his. "I love you. I love you."
Marinette woke up that morning, aware of the sleeping body next to her. After she had revealed herself to Adrien, she couldn't stand to be away from him, and he had asked her to stay like it was the only thing on this earth that he wanted. Now that she thought about it, that was probably exactly the case. Once again she slept curled against a hard chest, two muscular arms wrapped around her, and honestly it was the best nights sleep she had ever had. She looked at the blond next to her, who was still fast asleep. His black shirt had ridden up slightly during the night, showing just enough of his stomach to prove that he had abs that most other models would kill for. He was facing her, one arm draped over her hip, his eyes were closed and his lips slightly parted. His eyes cracked open sleepily.
"Good morning." Marinette said quietly. Adrien smiled, tightening his grasp around her waist and pulling her closer to his chest. She smiled at his way of greeting her in the morning. She could get used to waking up to him every morning, but for right now, "Adrien we have to get up, we have school today."
Adrien rolled over onto his back, letting Marinette rest her head on his shoulder. "School can wait." he said, placing a kiss on Marinette's head.
Marinette giggled, honestly she wouldn't mind snuggling up to Adrien all day, however, "As appealing as it is to stay in bed with you all day, what are my parents going to think when they walk into my room and I'm not there?" Marinette pointed out. Adrien gave a sigh in defeat making Marinette laughed. She sat up, stretching her arms above her head before looking at the boy next to her. He hadn't even bothered changing before they went to bed, so he was still wearing the same shirt and jeans from the day before. She leaned down and placed a long kiss on his lips. "I'll see you in class."
"I can't wait." Adrien said with a smile before Marinette transformed. Now the only question was how was she going to explain this new development to Alya?
Hey guys, should I do a sequel to this, like where they know of each others identities, but like have to keep their relationship hidden or something because then Alya and Nino would get curious or something. I don't know, tell me what you guys think in the comments or message me on tumblr.
