Chat laid on the floor, and turned around to face the bottom of marinettes bed. He couldn't help look at a a box.

Mari seemed to notice and laid on her stomach, while she was on her bed. Her head looking below , and then directly at Chats green glowy eyes.

She sighed.

"I don't usually show this to everyone" She whispered, while sitting on the floor with Chat.

She pulled out the polka dotted cardboard box, it looked like a shoe box.

"Before you look at this, you have to promise me, you won't tell him."

"Tell who?"

"Just promise me" Marinette said, and widened her eyes a little bit.

"Ok Mari.. i won't tell"

Marinette stopped for a second and thought maybe Chat didn't even care, because he didn't ask to open it.

"Mari, I care about you but if you don't feel comfortable .. you don't have to tell me... you can always trust me though. Ok?"

"I know I can trust you, silly" thought Mari.

After all, Chat was her best friend, when she was Ladybug. She actually would in love with Chat, if Adrien didn't exist. But he did....

" Look,"

she said, standing up and going to her desk.

"this boy.. is Adrien Agreste, he..."

She got a little nervous.

"I've had a crush on him for so long.. at first I didn't like him, I thought he put gum in my seat, but he.. came and explained. The way he talked and the confidence.. and those eyes.. he was so honest, and didn't seem to be faking it. Even though we had a celebrity, he talked with so much humility... that he had my heart without even asking for it..... and now after long years of holding back this love,

Chat blushed and his eyes filled with tears, it was dark, so Marinette couldn't notice. He blinked repeatedly to get those tears to disappear.

Marinette walked slowly, knelt beside the box , and looked at Chat, so he came and knelt beside her.

"I have been collecting little things that remind me of special moments." She said as she opened the box.

Chat seemed confused

"This are the movie tickets, when we once got to go and see a movie, in which his mom was .. he was so excited"

she handed Chat the tickets.

"And this is a picture we took with Nino and Alya once.."

Chat didn't know how to feel. He just wanted to hug her..He just looked at her face as she looked at the memories.

He couldn't believe it. I mean, a few days ago, he wouldn't even had imagined Marinette having a crush on him. A few years ago she did act kind of nervous but .. it was all different now...she changed...

He was really happy, knowing how sensible and caring Marinette was, yet feeling terrible.

"Oh.." Mari said, changing her face expression to a soft and sweet one.

"this is a bracelet he once gave me.. " she said, handing it over for Chat to see.

Chat blushed intensely , he had kept his bracelet too. He took it carefully from Marinette's hand.

"Do you think I tried to hard? Or he was just not in my level or.." her voice started to break

Chat knew she was about to cry. He rapidly left the bracelet in the box and without thinking about it , his body moved and hugged Marinette tightly.

"Don't you ever think like that. You're completely amazing, and no one, NO ONE is out of you level."

Chat Noir said, as he hold Marinette; one hand on her shoulder wrapping her and the other on her head, pulling her closer to him.

She started crying.

And Chat silently tried not to, but didn't succeed.

"I won't ever let someone hurt you again." Chat said quietly.

Marinette knew how to protect herself, as Ladybug, but felt so calm while Chat was hugging her.

She soon fell asleep while Chat was hugging her.

Chat, as he hugged her, was just thinking deeply.

As soon as Chat noticed Marinette fell asleep,he carried her to her bed. And covered her with the sheets. He stared at her to make sure she was asleep and silently said:

"Plagg, claws in ."

Plagg yawned and his eyes widened extremely when he saw where they were.

"What on earth man" he whispered, looking around "what are we doing here???"

"Plagg silence.."

Plagg looked at his holder waiting for an explanation.

"The storm didn't allow me to go. So that's why I was going to stay for the night."

"And what happened? Why is she asleep —OMGGG DID YOU GUYS—"

"OHH NONONO PLAGG" Adrien screamed/whispered.

"Chill man I was just saying.." Plagg said giggling quietly.

"She...opened up to me. She is so amazing Plagg.. she kept the bracelet I gave her.."

"Yeah I remember that bracelet. You made me help you do it"

They both chuckled

"I like her Plagg.. "

"But you love—"

"Ladybug, I know.."

Plagg looked at the pictures on Marinette's board while Adrien looked at the same girl sleeping.

"Wow she really liked you, she even has a cut-out of the exclusive magazine that was out only for a day!"

"Yeah .."

"Plagg I don't know what to do"

"Hey come one, calm down, we'll figure out what to do ok? Now, please get me some Camembert, I'm starving."

Adrien looked at the window and the storm seemed like it was not as intense.

"Adrien.."

"I know Plagg , I heard you are starv—"

"Adrien I feel a kwami aura"

"Huh?"

"Kwamis can feel the others kwamis when they're near"

"And whose kwami can you feel?"

" Tikki...." Plagg said with a sweet voice. "my forever crush; Ladybug's kwami."
