I closed my eyes the entire time I shot through the air the day everything changed. I somehow got tangled up in with you— a guy wearing a ridiculous black suit, appearing to be a cat. You had these beautiful green eyes that seemed to ecstatic whenever. Up close, I swore there was something about you that I had seen before. And it felt like day we met wasn't the first time around in history. I don't know how a stranger like you could be so familiar to me— like it was déjà vu.
"You must be the partner my Kwami told me about. I'm Chat Noir."
I remember you introducing yourself, and all I said was... "I'm madly clumsy." That was all I was before you stepped into my life, anyway. I was this insecure girl who never imagined that my life was going to change all because of a pair of earrings. That's where I first saw your breathtaking smile, that even the most embarrassing bloopers would be whisked away with just the sight of it.
"My lady, have I ever told you turn my world upside down?"
I covered the fiery rush that I felt when you said that to me that day. It was the first time ever that I felt like a goddess, like— like I was invincible. I didn't show my real emotions to you that day, and I don't know why. Maybe I was still all tangled up in my thoughts and words as I started to discover the incredible things that you are.
"And because without us, they won't make it, and we'll prove that to them. Okay?"
I didn't know you all too well, but I knew in the deepest corners of my hearts— I trusted you. I believed in all that you said. You believed in me before anyone else did, and that's where I knew that I trusted you, no matter who you are behind that mask.
"A little Chat Noir will take the wind out of her sails."
Woah, kitty, kitty, kitty. I laughed when you had the silliest of ideas that you wanted to do the moment they popped in your head. Sure, yes, I did trust you, but I learned that you would usually jump on your feet and spring into action. You were the boldest and most impulsive person that I have ever met. I loved that you were the complete opposite of me. That's where I learned that we were so different, yet I knew that we were the perfect puzzle piece to complete each other.
"Falling for me already, my lady?"
Yes, I was. That day that I thought you were going to tell me that you felt the same made me flutter off to my subconscious life with you. It was sad that you had to be cut off by the akumatized villain, though. Nevertheless, it was the first time that I kissed you... even though you didn't recall anything about it. That's where I learned that no matter who you are, even if you were controlled by someone else out of hand, I was in love with you. And there was no turning back.
"That birthday boy date of yours is bad news, but don't worry. You'll be safe with me."
You introduced yourself to me the second time around, but this time, I wasn't the Ladybug you knew. I was back to clumsy ole Marinette, but I didn't feel too different. You were still the same cocky guy you were, and even if that made me cringe, it more so made me smile. I did feel safe with you. I feel safest with you. Without my mask, I learned that I still was hopelessly in love with you, but I never knew how to say it.
"Stay. I won't tell anyone who you are. Cat's honor."
And this is where I started running away. I was scared that you would be disappointed to know that the strong, confident and fearless Ladybug you knew was just all clammed up in a voiceless, shy girl that everyone treated as a wallflower. I wanted you to know about me. I really do, but my fear of not being good enough for you without my miraculous overtook me. I learned that you might not love me for who I really was without my Ladybug façade, and that scared me the most.
"Well you don't look over a day over three thousand."
But no matter what I do, I couldn't stay away from you. It's like we were bound to each other far too long past, even before we were born. I realized that our powers were passed on centuries ago from the past, and it's like my love for you has passed from generation to generation, too. It wasn't love at first sight. It was love that my mind and body had forgotten, but my heart and soul remembered.
"I thought I lost you forever."
Every day with you was a wild ride I could never forget. Each day brought me brand new realizations, and it's feels like I'm not getting to know you at all. It feels more like I'm trying to remember who you are— what we were in our past lives. Every smile, every wink, and even every pun makes me remember our past together— all the centuries we lived by each other's side.
I don't know how it works. At this point, I don't know how anything works anymore.
I know that I have loved you before — in another time, a different place — some other existence.
But all that matters is the eternal fact that I love you— then, now, and for the infinity that our souls are bound to each other.
i love the idea of ladybug writing a letter, or speaking to chat noir only in her mind. it's kind of a cool thing to write because it's like i'm writing to a person that i like as well. oops, not going there no thanks.
anyhoo, i like the idea of master fu giving them the miraculous not because he chose them, but because wayzz knew that the soul of the past miraculous holders went to them. like... miraculous holders are reincarnated. this is similar to the legend of zelda, i suppose. the saviors of the world are reincarnated every time the world is in danger. (ooohhh mimi fangirl with meee)
so, yeah... this one-shot in extremely boring. it's just wordy, and very "deja vu"-ish with all of the chat noir dialogues that i purposely searched for in the episodes. i felt like the book needed random types of writing, so here's my melodramatic, hopeful and wishy-washy writing style.
more overly-dramatic works coming soon :)
