Presents from Santa Paws •Discontinued•

Night 2

Recap:
Marinette arrived at school to be greeted with a new gift. It was many jewels such as rings and bracelets. There was a note inside asking for her to receive the gift inside the bottom of the box. This gift was part of Chat Noir's cataclysm that can ultimately dye anything that touches it except the human skin. She tried it on her necklace she was wearing and it turned a green and black hue. Just how Max suggested. Or had gotten partially right.

Marinette pov:

The day was boring as I dreaded every moment. Don't get me wrong! I love my teachers and all but the lessons are so life-taking as if they were draining my soul.

One thing I found awfully confusing was that Adrien kept staring at my necklace and sometimes at me but looked away quickly. That's what friends do right?

I decided I would go confront him about it.

"Hey Adrien!" I said cheerfully trying to keep my courage up to not stutter.

"A-Ah! Marinette!! What do you need?" He said stuttering at the beginning in surprise.

"I wanted to know why you keep staring at my necklace and me." I explained to him.

"Well the necklace is really pretty ("like you" he whispered unheard.) and I keep looking at you to see if you'd figured out who sent you the presents. Though by that look you haven't. I may have to tell you eventually." He shrugged teasing me.

"You know who is delivering me the presents?" I ask confused.

"Of course. How would this 'person' know what to get you if they didn't have help from one of your friends?" He questioned me putting his hands on his hips.

He was right. Though I refuse to admit it.

"Then why can't you tell me?" I ask him.

"Everything happens for a reason Mari. And unlike some, it can be good things. Maybe this person will tell you. Maybe they won't. All I know is that they've been planning this for a while." He said with a smile before walking out of the courtyard and into the locker rooms.

"What the hell?" I muttered beneath my breath.

'Why won't he tell me? I'm obviously desperate. And who would do this for me anyway?' I question myself.

The bell rung leaving a sting in my ear as school lets out. Many kids start pushing past trying to get out to go out with friend or go home and relax.

I decided on the second option and walked home.

Sorry for this but time skip to 10:00pm

I had a look at the time to realise it was pretty late. The sky was a deep black almost making it look like the world was being shadowed by a huge being.

I walked up my ladder to my floating loft bed where I settled down and dozed off into a peaceful slumber.

Mysterious person pov:

I have been checking on her for a while. Ever since I told her clues about who was giving her gifts she seemed to be stressing out over it. Not that I didn't mind. She looked adorable stressed out.

I jumped onto the school roof and slid into Mrs.Bustiers room to find out she was still there.

"Chat noir?" She questioned me.

"Uhhhh-." I said trying to think of an excuse.

"I won't tell her. I know your here to drop off her gifts." She spoke to me softly.

"Wait- how?" I asked.

"You've been looking at her in class for a while now. Mostly bouncing your leg whenever she opened a gift. Waiting for her reaction." She spoke.

"Makes sense. Wait. Class? I don't go to this school Mrs!!" I lie panicking.

"I know your secret Adrien. Do not worry. I haven't told a soul. Now hurry up and place it. I have to lock up the place in a few minutes." She laughed.

I walked up to the tree and placed the same boxed black gift.

"How did you know it was me?" I asked turning around towards her.

"As you said earlier Adr- Chat Noir. Everything happens for a reason. I found out your identity for a reason. That reason I'm unsure of. But it will be important later on in your life. Mark my words." She said solemnly.

"Now get over here and jump through the window. The cameras are still on outside!" She whisper yelled at me.

"Alright. Have a good night Mrs! And thanks for not telling anyone." I had thanked her before jumping off.

Yep you guessed it. I'm Adrien/Chat Noir..

I can't wait for you to see my next gift Princess.

-Kitty/the black paw.
