Night watcher, I am Chloe Bourgeois! || Miraculous Ladybug

21: Field trip (3)

"Marinette, by any means, make Chloe to come with us. It is up to you."

"Don't worry, Miss. I have no intention to fail this year anyway. I know exactly what to do."

"Right. I trust you and your teammates," she let out a smile.

After that, Marinette left the classroom.

____________________________________

In Merinette's room.

"How exactly are you planing on making her come?" Tikki showed her concerns.

"I have a way."

"But, from sometimes, she is acting way different than her usual self. You do remember that day when the villain 'Fast-asleep' attacked, right?"

"I do. How can I forget that?"

That day, I felt truly horrified when she pointed out my private life in just one single conversation.

For a moment, I thought that I had failed as a hero. I don't even know what Cat Noir was doing that time or what my face looked like.

I can just be thankful for one fact that even after that kind of information leakage Cat Noir didn't catch the hint of my private life.

My vision practically blurred out and I couldn't see anything but the face of Chloe who looked much more terrifying than Hawkmoth.

It is shameful that I was relieved by the fact that she declared that she was not our enemy. I don't want to think what could have happened if she does become our enemy.

It was so shocking that I can't even remember exactly how we won the battle after that.

But I do remember that I returned home with a shaking body and with my mind filled with too many thoughts.

"Exactly where did I go wrong?"

"I did everything to keep my identity a secret, so exactly how did she know!?"

"What if she already know of my real identity!?"

"What if she is working with Hawkmoth and plotting something!?!?"

"What if they are actually working together!?!?"

"What do I do then!?!?!?"

"Wait!! Does that mean that she has a way to separate me and Adrian!?!?!?"

"What would be of my future then!?!?!?!!?"

If Tikki was not there with me and comforted me then I probably would have lost my mind.

She said that, "she definitely doesn't actually know of your identity. That is impossible for someone like her to know, you don't have to worry."

. . . Only I know exactly how I spend my night after that.

To feed my horror, the next day, she even pointed out that I am a teenager.

All that shook me to the core.

I wasn't able to recover from the shock for a whole week. I avoided her like never before.

Only Alya and Tikki were my comfort back then. I am really thankful to them and for there words.

I remember everything they told me at that time.

"Someone like her, who has never been a proper hero herself, can never know of your struggles. You live two lives for the people of the Paris without knowing anyone. You protect us. But never forget that most of all you are also a human. Making mistakes is common for human beings," that was what Alya told me.
