I can't believe that, Marinette and I...we...did that. Marinette lays on my chest breathing heavily, both of us trying to catch our breath after the wild experience we just had. I can't believe it, in my bathroom of all places. I want this to be special not just some thing we do when we want the other's attention or touch, I want this to be a forever thing something that lasts for our entire lifetimes. "Marinette," I whisper, making sure not to wake our sleeping friends beside us. Marinette looks up at me with her doe like eyes, so innocent and full yet so lustful that it gives me butterflies again. "What does this make us?" Marinette inches toward my face in a painfully slow manner that makes me want her touch again, over and over until I can't feel a thing. 

"Whatever you want, Mr. Agreste." Since I'm eighteen now I'm the owner of my rightful part of my company and ever since Marinette had been calling me Mr. Agreste teasingly, but I love it so much. "Can we...can we become official? I don't want you doing this with other people, I like you like really really like you and I couldn't imagine you being with someone else and making do the things you did or make you moan their name like you did for-" Her lips meet mine for a passionate kiss that lasts a while but I can't complain, I love the feeling of her lips against my skin. Marinette straddles my hips to deepen the passionate gesture, she pulls my face closer to hers while smirking into the kiss. "Adrien. You're the only one for me, I've loved you since the day you handed my your umbrella in the front of the school. Nothing will ever change that. I promise." I start to feel my cheek brighten from embarrassment and for not realizing her feelings towards me sooner. If I knew how she felt I would have asked her on that date ages ago.

I cover my face with my hands, peaking through my fingers I see her giggling at my expression. I really wish that this sight will never end. I love this feeling, this feeling of comfort and warmth. Marinette truly makes me feel happy, I can't imagine loving someone else the same way I love her.

"Princess, don't you think that that is a little extreme?" I raise a brow, Marinette is rambling about a plan to get rid of Lila since she's in town again. If I were ever to repeat what she's suggesting we'd do, I wouldn't see the sun again from my prison cell. "No, it's exactly what she deserves. I hate her Chat like really hate her with a true passion." Marinette fumes. I watch her walk back and forth in front of me, she angrily stomps her feet as she thinks almost like a child who didn't get their way. 

I hold my head in my hands, laying on my stomach while I kick my feet behind me. I watch as Marinette walks around her room thinking about a bunch of harsh punishments for Lila Rossi, an old classmate. I can't help but think what had gotten into her? She seemed so normal at the beginning of the school year but somewhere in our first year she snapped. Helping Hawkmoth, lying and stealing, specifically targeting Marinette to frame her. I can see where Marinette is coming from, Lila did attempt to ruin Marinette's life, and was proud to admit it like it was a trophy or even a symbol of pride just to try and get my attention but this is a bit far. 

"Look. Princess, I know she intentionally got you into some trouble, stole from you, lied to absolutely everyone, framed you for all her wrong doings, and managed to side with Hawkmoth and almost ruin Paris, I don't think you should ship her off to China." I never thought I'd have to ever say that but here I am, explaining to my girlfriend who doesn't know it's me, that it's illegal to ship someone away. "Not to China, but to Australia. I'm sure she'll love it there. And I'm not 'illegally shipping her off'. I'm giving her a permanent vacation to a place she's never been. I wouldn't know since she lies about absolutely everything for no reason though, but it'll be fun." Why am I part of this conversation? 

I roll over on my back, looking up at her ceiling from her chaise just thinking of how I landed myself in this situation having this talk to someone who clearly isn't listening to what I'm saying. I sigh. What did I do to deserve Marinette? I'd rather think of this than listen to her explain how she wants to get rid of Lila for good without it landing her in prison for life. My butterflies return, there isn't one moment I don't find myself blushing or not getting butterflies around Marinette Dupain-Cheng. She makes any and everything brighter with her smile, her energy, her presence, and her grace. She reminds me so much of mom that I'd love to think she would instantly fall in love with Marinette if they were to ever meet. Mother would love Marinette for many reasons, like her many talents and skills such as baking, sewing, designing, drawing, singing, songwriting, photography, and her ability to make things right when they are wrong no matter the situation she finds a way. Those and many more, are the reasons I love Marinette.

"Chat! Are you alright? You're a little red, and breathing really fast, is everything alright-"

"I love you." I murmur, her face became a beetroot red. I finally stand, placing both hands on her shoulders and taking a deep breath in. I can't. Her deep, beautiful, bluebell eyes distract me in an instant. If I tell her right now she'll think I've been lying to her when akuma attacks hit, I can't do that. What if she hates me for lying to her about my identity? I don't want to ruin what we have, it's special. Well, at least to me it is. I can't hurt her, but if I don't say something sooner and she finds out that can also end our relationship. "I love you too, Chaton." I love this woman. 

"But, you don't know who I am." 

"I know. I don't have to know who you are to know who you really are, Chaton." She loves me without even knowing I'm her boyfriend or that she even knows me in reality. She really is my Lucky Bug.

I pull her into a hug, pushing her against my leather suit chest. Marinette hesitantly hugs me back, I hope she doesn't think I'm on catnip or something. We stay this way for awhile, but I can't complain when Marinette is nuzzling her cheek against my chest like a cat trying to get comfortable. I don't want to pull away from her but I know I have to because nothing this good lasts forever. 

She gives me a confused face, I just softly smile down without realizing how close our faces are until our lips meet for a passionate kiss which she didn't pull or reject. No I have my answer, I can reveal my identity to her, she loves both sides of me and not just the 'perfect' one. Marinette even loves my Chat Noir side, the side that is the most imperfect and most true to me but not yet, I'll make the reveal perfect so she'll never forget it. I'll make it beautiful. 

"Oh no! Chat, I have a boyfriend. What will Adrien think, so many people have already hurt him so much and I was hoping that I wouldn't be one of this people but I'm here kissing the Chat Noir  in my bedroom! Adrien is going to freak out, I didn't mean to I swear I don't want to cheat on him. I'm an adult now and I'm still making childish silly mistakes." Marinette rambles in a huge panic, I just stand in amusement laughing a bit to myself. She cares too much for me, little does she know she kissed her boyfriend, but what am I going when she comes to me about it? I can't laugh or say it's ok since she'll think it's odd but I also can't get mad at her for it since I don't mind if she kisses me as Chat Noir. So what do I do?

The only thing to do. The only thing that I can think of at the moment. The probable solution to this situation I'm guessing, would be to reveal my identity now. 

Marinette's back is toward me, this is perfect. I silently release my transformation, feeding my kwami and sending him off. Marinette has her eyes closed her and her hands over her face so I'm sure she didn't see me de-transform just yet. I run my hands over her waist and pull her closer to my chest, I slowly lean down to the shaky and rambling being and kiss her neck and shoulders to relax her nerves. "Chat, stop. This isn't making matters better, you're giving me butterflies," she whispers with a sigh, clearly satisfied with my work. Brutally honest as always, huh Marinette?  

I continue to kiss along her neck and jaw, kissing any exposed skin I can. Marinette's back arches when I finally stop dancing around her sweet spot and bite down on it. She backside is rubbing against the wrong place, I know if I don't stop now I won't be able to contain myself and get desperate and hungry. "I love you, darling," Darling. The nickname only Adrien knew and called his princess. Adrien is the only one other than Marinette who knows the nickname even exists so how do I know it? I, Chat Noir, love a good tease.

Marinette whips her head around with wide eyes, looking directly into my deep lustful green orbs. A smirk spreads across her face, she already knew. What a tease.

"So, you already knew."

"Of course, I know my own boyfriend. And I know what his kisses feel like and how they make me feel. Plus, don't deny, you love a good tease." Marinette flicks my nose, two can play this game.

"How long?" I return her smirk.
