Chris lounged on his bed, not in the mood to get up just yet. Yawning, he turned his phone on to check the LadyBugOut app.

Nothing. Nada. Not a single akuma sighting.

He wasn’t sure whether to be relieved or anxious.

How long has it been now, days? A week? It was quiet, too quiet. That’s gotta meant some kinda calm before the storm crap.

He frowned as another thought struck him. Was the slow akuma activity happening because Adrianne-or rather, Chat Noir- wasn’t there? Does that even make sense? All things considered, the Ladybug Miraculous is more important than the Black Cat Miraculous, right?

Groaning, he buried his head into his pillow. God, his brain was hurting already. Marcel was always better when it came to brains. He was more of the brawn. Yeah he may be bossy but he’s as good at carrying out orders as he is at giving them out himself.

His phone vibrated again. He checked and felt a surge of energy spike through when he realized it was from Joan.

[Chat name: Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain]

CountryGirl: Morning!

CountryGirl: How r u?

Chris smiled. Even her texts seemed as cheerful as her.

CityBoi: Morning. I’m fine.

CountryGirl: U free today?

CityBoi: Yeah. Why?

CountryGirl: Wanna meet up?

CityBoi: Aren’t u in Metropolis? Kansas? Whatever?

CountryGirl: I have my ways.

CountryGirl: Yes or no? Make up your mind, sunshine. I ain’t got all day.

Chris’s finger hovered in front of the screen, unsure. Should he say yes? He….he really wanted to see her again, in person and hang out with her but…he was definitely skeptical on how she’s actually going to make it all the way Gotham in less than a day.

But she didn’t seem like the type to make empty promises. Sides, it’s like he had anything better to do so…..why not?

“Is something wrong, my king?” Pollen asked.

“…..it’s nothing, Pollen.” He said.

“She’s a sweet girl. She’s as beautiful as a flower and just as open to her surroundings. And you know how we bees are with flowers.” Pollen teased.

“Can’t deny that.” He hummed.

CityBoi: Time? Place?

CountryGirl: Where we first met? Noon sound good?

CityBoi: We can go 4 lunch. My treat.

CountryGirl: Really?

CountryGirl: Sweet!

CountryGirl: Thanks

CountryGirl: See u soon <3

He blushed. Man, he wasn’t even talking to her face to face and already texting her alone made him feel so…..fuzzy.

Wait……….why was he feeling so warm and fuzzy? Don’t you only feel that when…..you’re…………………..

Oh god.
