Only At Night

10:15

Adrien feels stupid. His hands are shaky and his lip is quivering.

He has just read Alyas newest blog post.

'Ladybugs Love Life.'

He thinks maybe it's his own fault, I mean he knew what it would say.

'When asked about her love life, ladybug had this to say.

"When you are busy saving the world, everything else has to e put on hold. So I will be single until the city is safe." - Ladybug

So you heard it here folks. The one and only Ladybug is on the market, but not looking for anything at the moment.'

Adrien reads it once more before putting his phone away.

He looks at the time on his phone, 10 pm. He would normally be just back from patrol at this point. However, Ladybug had called off patrol with Chat and her usual meet up with Adrien.

You see Ladybug had been meeting with Adrien for about 2 months now. They were an item.... or something like that.

Ladybug had been hurt during a fight and Adrien had been on his balcony as she was returning home. Adrien had called out to her and offered her help. He knew exactly what was wrong. He had watched her take the fall as Chat.

It was very rare that they got hurt after returning the Akuma. Ladybug had just missed her step and tumbled, she had hit a few balconies on the way down. None of the Balconies were damaged, but Ladybug was.

Adrien put on a blindfold and helped Ladybug. Ladybugs hands guiding him to her injured side, her soft skin under his fingers. It had gotten him rather hot and bothered. He had been obsessed with this girl since he was 14. To have her body half-undressed on his bedroom couch was overwhelming.

He was very glad he had taken that first aid course when he was 19. If he hadn't who knows if he would have been unable to help Ladybug that night.

They then meet every week from then on. Ladybug would come by after Patrol and they would... hangout? 

She would wait about 15 mins before showing up. He wonders if that was to trick Chat about where she was going. If only she knew.

It was about 1 month ago when he noticed. They never really talked during their hangout sessions. They talked a little and moaned a lot.

He started noticing the patterns. The quick hellos, the blindfold, the secrets, the intimacy, the empty bed in the morning and the lies.

When he was lying to protect his identity it was to help others, when he's lying for Ladybug he isn't sure whats he protecting. He knows he can't exactly be like, this is my girlfriend the superhero Ladybug. He just wishes he could say he was taken, and that he had a girlfriend.

However, she had never actually said what they were.

Adrien was too scared to ask. How do you ask your dream girl, who visits you and has mind-blowing sex with you, what your relationship is?

What if the label scares her away, or she thinks he is using her for clout.

He will wait for Ladybug to make the first move.

He starts to drift off to sleep, as he dreams of soft lips and hands.

When he wakes he checks the bed next to him out of instinct. Empty, as always. At least he hadn't fallen asleep with someone filling it this time.

Adrien packed his backpack and slid on his clothes. He was meeting Nino and gang today, so he didn't need to dress up. He checks he has all of his games and his essentials before leaving for the day.
