28: Questions unanswered
{Ladybug}
It has been a week after I broke my nose. Adrian still hasn't told Nino because of photo shoots and he refused to tell him at school. Alya keeps on pestering me about how I became Ladybug and I've told her a million times.
The days dragged on without excitement. The thought that I pushed back out of my mind continued to rise up.
Does Hawkmoth know who I am?
Every time I think about it, it seems to get more confusing. Why would it matter? What if his intentions weren't to hurt us? It was all collateral damage?
I stared of into nowhere.
"Marinette," Alya hissed into my ear. I jumped.
"What?"
"Nothing?"
I sighed and turned to the board. I can't pay attention, I had too much to worry about. Telling Nino, homework, Ladybug, homework, fun, patrol and the question burning in the back of my mind.

I was sitting on someone's roof admiring the sunset over the horizon when two hands covered my eyes. One hit my nose and I winced. "Sorry purrincess," He pulled his hands away and sat down next to me. He smiled sheepishly.
"It's okay,"
"No, it isn't, what happens if she gets akumatised? She'll be even more cruel, and break more than your precious nose," The ends of his smile pulled down.
"My nose isn't precious," I smiled. And plus what you did as Chat Blanc hurt more than any physical pain.
"I'm sorry, you know I didn't mean it," He whispered.
"W-what?" I stammered. How can he read my mind?!?
"You know I didn't mean anything that I said as Chat Blanc. Right?"
"Y-yeah, w-why would I think that you mean it?" I took in a shaky breathe.
He brought his hand to my face and traced my cheekbones. He seemed entranced by my face. Anyone else doing it, it might have been creepy but not him.
I think.
28: Mine
[Chat Noir]
Her eyes are beautiful and make the sunset dull in comparison. Her lips soft under mine. Her porcelain skin, warm and soft to the touch. A smile worth more than the Agreste name. And she was mine.
I slid my hand down underneath her chin and lifted it up and brought her lips to mine. She brought her hand up and swung at the bell.
It jingled softly, she smiled under my lips and kissed back.
