Miraculous Marichat

Chapter 18

3rd person POV

"You have a key to the trapdoor and y'know!!! You don't have to knock if you can clearly see I'm at my desk!!!!!!" Marinette yelled up to him from in her chair. The sound of the latch opening could be heard and a soft landing behind Marinette. "Well hello Purrincess" a slight shiver went down Marinette's spine. She used to wonder for a while why Chat was the only person who could make her shiver like that, but now she knew why, and secretly loved it. "Bonjour minou" She said to him, not turning around to face him. She could almost hear the pout on his face, she gave a slight chuckle imagining him babying about the simple fact of her not turning around. "Princeeeeeeeeeess, why won't you turn around and look at meeeeee???" She laughed loud enough for Chat Noir to hear this time, he kept poking her shoulder, head, and neck to get her to turn around. Finally, she turned her chair around to look at him, he smiled looking at me. "Hello Princess" he waved to her, he had said hello earlier, but that was when he wasn't being pouty. Marinette rolled her eyes playfully and waved at him. "What are the plans tonight?" She asked, looking up at him from her chair which made her even smaller compared to him. He smiled and sat straight down on her lap, Catra style (Catra S5 when she sits down on Adora's lap, I think the episode when they find Melog) "I sit in your lap and we watch the Ladyblog and movies." He says with a smug look plastered on his face. Marinette rolled her eyes once more and pulled up an older video which included some hilarious fails of Ladybug and Chat Noir from when they had recently gotten the miraculous. They both laughed for a while, hopping from video to video, laughing so hard their stomachs hurt and were crying. Then suddenly Chat audibly gasped and whipped his head up to look at Marinette. "What's wrong? What happened?" She asked, her voice getting louder ever so slightly with each word, although she didn't say much. She wrapped her arms around him, ready to protect at all costs. "I just had a genius idea" She looked down at him with a questioning look, while relaxing her arms. "And what is this so-called 'genius idea' of yours?" He got up out of her lap and sat on her chaise with his legs crossed. He pointed to a spot on the floor in front of him. "You, get a brush and sit here where I'm pointing, I take out your pigtails and brush through your hair." He said with a proud look on his face, thinking it was the most genius idea since the lightbulb. Marinette sighed (again) and grabbed her hair brush and sat in front of him on the floor. She handed the hair brush to him while he took out the pigtails. "I don't think I've ever told you this, but your hair looks really pretty down, why don't you let it down more often?" He asked brushing through the hair, occasionally brushing through some tangles. "I like it up, keeps it out of my face when I'm working on things, y'know like when I'm sewing, doing homework, brushing my teeth, eating, just everyday things." He nodded and continued brushing in a comfortable silence. Marinette felt Chat gathering all her hair and decided to question his actions. "What are you doing with my hair?" She asked, turning her head ever so slightly in his direction. "Don't move your head, you're gonna make me mess it up!!" She turned her head back to its original position and stayed there waiting for an answer. "Well? You gonna answer me or not?" She said, getting a little bit irritated. "It's a surprise, all you need to know is that I'm a professional and you're going to look even more amazing than you already do." Marinette smirked at this, now was her chance to get back at him. "You think I'm amazing huh? What else do you think of me?" Chat's face grew bright red. "W-Well umm, I-I mean, y-you're pretty nice and stuff, you are really hard working, sometimes you over work yourself, u-umm, you're smart and witty, y-you're funny or whatever, you have a confidence I could never have, y-you're really talented, and I-I don't know, you're really pretty, beautiful even, and you kick as- wait a minute, I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING, I'M AS QUIET AS A MOUSE!!!!!!" His face got even more red after he realized what he had said. Marinette started laughing, she could only imagine the flustered face on her kitty right now, Chat was grateful Marinette was looking the other way, he was soo embarrassed, and no matter how much he hoped, his mask was not enough to cover his blushing face. "Thank you kitty, it means a lot for you to say that." His reddened face got a shade more normal. "You're welcome" he muttered, he continued to do Marinette's hair in silence. It didn't take long for him to finish, although it was a bit difficult to keep the hair in place without a hair tie. "There, all done! Now go look at my masterpiece in your mirror, and here's the brush unless you want to do my hair." Marinette got up from her position on the floor, brush in hand and went over to the mirror to see what Chat had done. Before looking in the mirror though, she put the brush in one of the drawers. Finally she looked in the mirror, she was shocked, she was amazed that Chat was able to put her hair in a bun without using any hair tie, and it still looked good even without it! Although there was one downside to the hairstyle, it reminded her of a school year before, the year where she wore a bun and a pair of blue colored pants to school, the pants were the same style as her pink ones, and she still wore her black jacket and white shirt, and the same pink flats. She did not like to remember that school year. That year Chloe had put cockroaches into her locker and done many other things she did not like to think about. Marinette shuddered at the memory. Chat saw the look on Marinette's face and went over to her. "Is something wrong princess?" She looked over at him with a sad smile. "I love what you did with my hair, it's just that it reminds me of a previous school year, Chloe had done some pretty bad things." Chat frowned and hugged Marinette, he hugged her and never wanted to let go. "I promise you princess, I will never let her hurt you ever again." He said with a stern voice, Marinette smiled at him, then her smile turned into one of mischief. "Chat?" "Yeah?" he said, burying his face into Marinette's neck. "You do know that YOU'RE the one who took out my pigtails, you had my hair ties right next to you." Chat Noir's eyes widened and his face turned into a shade of red. "I completely forgot about those, ughhhhh, this is so embarrassing" he said in the crook of Marinette's neck, making his voice become muffled, Marinette laughed, the atmosphere was back to normal and they could continue their night in a happy bliss.
