The sun began to peek through the curtains, casting a warm golden glow across the room. I stirred awake, feeling the soft weight of arms wrapped around me. A smile tugged at my lips as I turned to see Cat Noir still asleep beside me, his face relaxed and peaceful. Marinette lay on the other side, her hair splayed out like a dark halo, catching the sunlight.
Last night felt like a dream—an intoxicating whirlwind of emotions and connections that had deepened the bond between us. I shifted slightly, feeling both of them stir. Cat Noir blinked awake first, his green eyes brightening as they met mine.
"Good morning, beautiful," he murmured, his voice still thick with sleep.
"Morning," I replied, my heart fluttering at the sight of his sleepy smile.
Marinette stirred next, a soft yawn escaping her lips. "What time is it?" she mumbled, rubbing her eyes.
"Early enough that we can enjoy a lazy morning," I teased, glancing at the clock on the bedside table.
With a sleepy grin, Marinette stretched, her arms reaching over her head as she sat up. "Last night was amazing," she said, her cheeks flushing slightly as she glanced between Cat Noir and me.
"It really was," I agreed, unable to contain my own smile. "I never knew we could feel so connected."
Cat Noir leaned over, brushing a gentle kiss against my forehead. "This is just the beginning, you know."
As we settled into our cozy morning routine, laughter and teasing filled the air. We shared sweet moments, kisses, and gentle touches, feeling like a family woven together by the threads of love and trust.
Eventually, we decided to get out of bed and enjoy breakfast together. As I stood up, a wave of dizziness washed over me. I paused, gripping the edge of the bed for support.
"Are you okay?" Marinette asked, her voice laced with concern as she noticed my sudden stillness.
"Yeah, just a little lightheaded," I replied, forcing a smile. "I'll be fine."
After breakfast, we decided to take the day easy. The three of us lounged around the house, reminiscing about our past adventures and discussing the future of HopeLink. But as the hours passed, I couldn't shake the feeling of fatigue that seemed to settle deeper within me. My body felt heavier, as if an invisible weight had pressed down on me.
"Y/N, are you sure you're alright?" Cat Noir asked, his brows furrowing as he caught me rubbing my temples.
"I'm just tired," I replied, though I could hear the uncertainty in my own voice. "Maybe I just need a little more rest."
Marinette nodded, her worry evident. "Why don't you lie down for a bit? We can keep you company."
I agreed, wanting to reassure them, but the truth was that I felt increasingly weak. As I lay back on the bed, I could see Marinette and Cat Noir exchanging worried glances, but their concern was comforting.
"I'll be fine, really," I said, forcing a cheerful tone. "Just give me a moment."
I closed my eyes, hoping to drift off and regain some strength. But as the minutes turned into what felt like an eternity, a dark cloud seemed to settle over me, shrouding my mind in a thick fog. The warmth of the room faded, and I felt a chill seep into my bones.
"Y/N?" I heard Cat Noir's voice, distant and muffled.
My eyelids fluttered, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't seem to find the strength to respond. Instead, I felt myself slipping further into the depths of an unsettling darkness.
"Y/N!" Marinette's voice broke through the haze, more urgent this time. "Stay with us!"
But my world grew quieter, and I was lost in a haze of shadows and whispers. The warmth of their presence began to fade, replaced by an overwhelming sense of emptiness. I could hear their frantic voices, but it felt as if I were underwater, struggling to break free.Then, suddenly, everything went black.

I don't know how long I floated in that void, but when I finally stirred again, I felt disoriented, like waking from a deep dream. Familiar faces swirled into view—Marinette's eyes were wide with fear, while Cat Noir's features were etched with worry.
"Y/N!" they both cried out, their voices overlapping as they reached for me. "I... what happened?" I mumbled, confusion clouding my mind.
"You collapsed!" Marinette exclaimed, her voice trembling. "We thought we lost you!"
A wave of panic washed over me, mingling with the darkness that had enveloped me moments ago. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to scare you."
Cat Noir brushed his fingers over my forehead, his touch soft and soothing. "You scared us half to death. You need to rest."
I tried to sit up, but my body felt heavy, as if the weight of the world had settled on my chest. "No, I... I'm fine," I insisted, but my voice was weak, and even I could hear the unconvincing tone.
"Y/N, please don't push yourself," Marinette urged, her eyes shining with unshed tears. "We're here for you."
I could see the worry etched on their faces, but I didn't want to burden them with my weakness. "I'll be okay," I tried again, forcing a smile, though it felt hollow
.But as I looked into their concerned eyes, a wave of exhaustion crashed over me once more, and I couldn't fight it. "I just need a little more time," I murmured, but even as I said it, I felt the darkness creeping back, pulling me under.
And then, just like that, I was gone.

The void returned, but this time it was different—chaotic and unsettling. I felt disoriented, as if my very essence was being tugged in multiple directions. Shadows swirled around me, each one echoing whispers that danced at the edge of my consciousness.Time lost meaning, and I floated in the inky blackness, unmoored and drifting. Memories flickered before me—happy moments with Marinette and Cat Noir, the laughter we shared, and the warmth of our connection. Yet, each time I reached for those memories, they slipped away, dissolving like mist.
"Y/N..."
The voice was soft yet insistent, cutting through the haze. I struggled to grasp it, to pull myself back, but the shadows tightened their grip.
"Y/N!"
I fought against the encroaching darkness, desperate to respond, to find my way back. But just as I thought I could break through, the void consumed me, plunging me into an even deeper darkness.
---
Outside, time continued to pass, and worry turned to panic as Marinette and Cat Noir clung to each other, watching over Y/N.
"Please, come back to us," Marinette whispered, clutching Y/N's hand as tears streamed down her cheeks. "We can't lose you."
"Stay strong, Y/N. We're right here," Cat Noir added, his voice filled with determination even as fear gnawed at his heart.
Together, they held vigil, hoping that their love would pierce the shadows and bring Y/N back from the brink.
---
As the shadows enveloped me once more, I clung to the thought of them—the warmth of their love, the strength of our bond. No matter how deep the darkness grew, I would find my way back.Somewhere, in the midst of the chaos, I could hear their voices calling me, drawing me toward the light.And I was determined to answer.
