Marinette sat on the rooftops, watching the sunset as she saw a black shadowy figure heading her way as her heart started to flutter, glad that he showed up. No way he could tell her that he literally drove across Paris just to transform and run back to her just to hide his identity. He landed beside her and she looked over at him as he stood beside her.

"Hello, there princess." Chat smiled, looking down at her with a smile.

Marinette smiled and pulled him into a hug.

"I missed you." Marinette sighed, feeling his warmth through his suit as he hugged her back.

"I missed you too." He smiled.

"Chat? Will you come in?" She asked looking up at him.

"Isn't your... little lover boy home?" He teased.

"Ugh... he is not-... He's... spending... the night at... Nino's..." She trailed off, looking up at her boyfriend's green eyes, almost entranced.

"What? What's the matter?" He asked, confused, seeing her flustered.

"N-nothing." She said, snapping out of her thoughts. "Come down I need to talk to you about a few things."

"Princess... you know that sentence would make any alleycat want to flee the scene." He smiled, though he still followed nonetheless.

She sat down on Adrien's bed and patted for him to sit down beside her but she smiled when she saw him stretch out and make himself comfortable by laying under the blankets.

"You always make yourself comfortable anywhere you go, huh?" She rolled her eyes.

"You make anywhere feel like home." He smiled, causing her to blush.

"Speaking of... home..." She frowned, laying down beside him.

"Chat..."

"Don't..." He stopped her, making her eyes widen.

"I already know that you're moving to the U.S." He said with a frown.

"But..." She said, a little taken back. "How did you find out?"

"Adrien."

"He told me he didn't lie," Marinette said, a little hurt.

"Uh... he said that... probably to not make you upset." Chat said, knowing that would save his identity as well as his friendship with Marinette.

"I guess..." Marinette said, thinking that sounded like Adrien.

Adrien never wanted any of his friends to be upset... but why would he even talk to Chat noir about it? Were they that close of friends and she never knew?

"I don't want you to leave me, princess." He said, snapping her out of her thoughts, leaning closer, and kissing her nose with a frown.

"Chat... my parents. They want to go to the U.S. Where else am I supposed to go?" Marinette sighed.

"With me." He smiled.

"Heh, alright. Live with a secret superhero? Right." She laughed sarcastically.

"Why not? Don't you want to?" He said, pulling her into a hug.

"Chat... don't you think that would put your identity at risk? Have you talked to Ladybug about it?" She said, pushing him away lightly to look at him face to face.

He sighed and his ears drooped.

"For you... I would give up being a superhero." He said, looking into her eyes.

"Chat... no. Paris needs you." She said, kissing his nose with a frown.

"I need you."

Chat sighed and sat up, throwing one leg over top of her, pinning her arms down as he let his hair gently touch her forehead as he stared into her eyes. Marinette held her breath and her face started to redden as she felt Chat noir's body lay on top of her.

"I need you to stay with me, I need you to be honest with me...always." He whispered, gazing in her eyes.

"I'm always honest with you." Marinette smiled and laughed.

Chat closed his eyes and kissed her, feeling her lips against his. He let go of her wrists and instead put his hands on her cheeks, almost pulling her toward him.

They parted their lips and saw their faces red, almost like the first time they had their first kiss and she smiled up at him. Instead of him smiling back, she was surprised to find him jumping off of her and standing beside the bed. He then walked over to the window.

Marinette sat up and looked over at him, worried.

"Let's... run away Juliet." He turned his head toward her and smiled.

Marinette blinked a few times and started to giggle softly. She struggled past the comforter but finally made it to him and stood beside him, looking up at the moon, leaning her head on his shoulder.

"Don't... move in with your parents." He said, trying to convince her.

"Oh, Romeo..." She said sweetly.

"Stay with me... princess." He pleaded.
