The more he read, the tighter his chest constricted, a mix of astonishment and disbelief washing over him with each revelation. There was something deeply intimate about discovering her innermost self through these words.
As the truth settled in, Cat Noir's hand trembled, and his fingers clutched the diary as if it were his lifeline. "Marinette... Marinette is... Ladybug," he whispered, his voice barely more than a broken breath. The realisation hung heavy in the air, a moment that felt both surreal and profound.
His mind raced back through every encounter, every moment they had shared. The pieces of the puzzle clicked into place with a deafening resonance. The girl he had so often teased, admired, and laughed with was the same one he had fallen for as Ladybug. The girl he had risked his life for countless times was also the one he had fallen in love with as his civilian self. He fell in love with both of the alter egos.
"All this time," he muttered, his voice laced with a mixture of awe and regret. "All this time, I've never noticed." His grip on the diary tightened, the pages crinkling slightly under his fingers. How had he missed the signs? How had he not seen beyond the mask and into the heart of the person who had been standing right beside him all along?
Anger flickered within him, but it wasn't directed at Marinette. No, it was a fit of anger born from his own blindness, from his failure to recognise the one who had been his partner in crime, his soulmate, his love. He closed his eyes, a mix of emotions swirling within him: disbelief, longing, and an ache for the moments he could never reclaim.
He didn't know what else to do. He didn't have anything else to do. Ladybug and Marinette were gone. He decided to keep on reading.
