It was a warm summer afternoon and all of Chat Noir and Ladybug's fans were gathered in the park for an autograph signing after a rather gruesome attack.

"I'm surprised so many people showed up", Ladybug mused thoughtfully to her feline partner.

"But of course, my lady, after all who wouldn't want to see the miraculous heroes of Paris?" Chat responded.

"How...modest."

The akuma, The Incinerator, was one of the worst villains Ladybug and Chat had ever faced, because of this, a vast majority of Paris was caught up in the battle, burning buildings, shrubbery and some unfortunate citizens. Luckily, because of Lady's lucky charm, the harm had been undone and all the people of Paris were safe once again. To show their gratitude the Parisians had decided to set up an autograph station the weekend after the attack so that the heroes could meet their many fans.

Despite the fact that Ladybug had seen so many grateful fans that afternoon, she couldn't stop thinking that she would like Chat's autograph, and to show her gratitude in her civilian form.

"Hey Chat, I think I'm going to run to the bathroom really fast", the spotted girl said.

"Don't take too long, my lady, I'll get lonely~", the leather clad feline replied.

At this, the bluenette rolled her eyes and headed towards the bathroom. Quickly hiding in one of the stalls, she transformed back into her civilian form and ran back to the long line of people waiting to get their pictures, souvenirs and limbs signed. Heading towards the back, she was suddenly caught off guard when she heard an all too familiar shout of...

"Princess~! My princess is here~!", from the all too excited black cat...

Embarrassed, Mari tried to hide in the crowd of people, but the people around her only chuckled and lightly shoved her towards the front where the energetic kitty was still yelling for his 'princess'.

"Couldn't resist my purrfect smile, Princess?" The cat asked, a coy smirk gracing his features in a very feline way.

At this, Mari turned a bright red, but cleared her throat and gave him a dazzling smile.

"Actually, I came to say thanks for always looking after Paris. Ladybug is really lucky to have you.", The blue haired girl, who had since lost the blush, but maintained her award winning smile said.

"I- uh. Thank me. I mean, Uh, you, thank you. For thinking of me .", Chat stuttered, his smirk falling into a mortified, yet grateful look.

Mari giggled, "I think of you more than you know. You're a cool guy, Chat Noir. I have no doubt that you're a great friend to Ladybug."

"Well, purrhaps I could be your friend too, Princess", Chat said, his smirk back in record time.

Marinette giggled once again, "We'll see about that chatton. You should come visit my balcony sometime, maybe during one of your patrols."

Chat makes a mental note, "Visit Princess' balcony during a patrol. Also, bring snacks."

After their banter, the cat gives Mari her autograph and she head back to the bathroom to return to her hero form.

When she returns to the autograph station, Lady notices that Chat is in higher spirits than usual, "What's got you so happy, chaton?"

"Well that's a secret, my lady~" the kitty responded,"Now if you'll excuse me, Bugaboo, I believe it's my turn to use the facilities."

Chat saunters off towards the restroom, the glow of knowing that one of his classmates thought so highly of him, despite not knowing who he truly was, was still running freshly through his mind. He transforms and joins of the back of the line, only to be ushered forward by Alya who happened to be towards the front.
