{Marinette's POV}

I didn't know what to say. He wanted to show me who he really was. But I was scared. I was scared because everything we had done together, everything we had done in our superhero form, will be  all revealed at this moment. We would be able to know that the next day, we could look at each other and know that the day before they had just fought a villain together.

I knew that he already knew who I was but it would be different, us both knowing each others civilian forms. But this is what he wanted and it's the least I could do because what I had to tell him would break his heart. Because he loved me.

Chat noir held both my hands tightly as he sat beside me on the hospital bed. He looked me in the eyes with guilt. "Princess, I-I just want to say that it's ok if you don't except me as my civilian form because I understand. But I need to tell you because, because I can't lie to you anymore M'Lady. I can't rock up to school and smile at you without being filled with guilt that you have no idea it's me. Marinette, may I have your permission to show you who I am, under this cat suit and mask?" I saw a tear run down his cheek.

I nodded my head as he instructed me to close my eyes. There was a flash of light from infront of me that I could see from behind my closed eyelids. I felt as the leather suit disappeared in my hands, leaving soft, bare hands in their place.

"Y-you can open your eyes Mari" Chat Noir whispered. After a moment I opened my eyes to see a smiling boy sitting next to me on my hospital bed. His cheeks flushed bright red and he rubbed the back of his neck. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

Thoughts were rushing through my mind. About the fact that this whole time, the love of my life was right by my side, and I kept flinging him away. All this time, we had been working together to fight away the city's evil. And all this time, he loved me.

Tears filled my eyes and I started spilling. The tears kept running and running and I couldn't stop them for all I tried. Adrien brought me into a tight hug and I cried into his chest. "M-Mari I'm sorry. I'm sorry I disappointed you. I'm sorry Marinette" I could feel him shaking his head on top of mine.

"N-no Adrien. Adrien I-it's not that" I sniffled through tears. "It's, it's just that the whole time, the W-whole time you had been right there. I loved you Adrien and I kept pushing you away as Chat Noir because I couldn't get over the fact that I loved Adrien first. You had been right by my side and even when you knew I w-was Marinette you stuck by my side. You've always been there for me, In both forms and I didn't return the favour." I couldn't stop my tears from spilling everywhere as I shook my head, disappointed in myself.

"Marinette of coarse I was there for you. The cute little girl who I fell head over heals for the second you decided to trust me. You were my first friend. My first love. And the first ever person that I've been able to trust. And I'm talking about ladybug and Marinette. Because Mari, I love you who ever you are. I love your ladybug suit and your flowery shirt and jeans. I love all of you Mari. I've just been waiting for you to love me back."

Chat Noir looked deeply into my eyes as I looked up from his chest. "I love you" he whispered with eyes full of hopefulness.

"Adrien" I shook my head, smiling. "Adrien I've always loved you. I loved you as a model and as a silly little cat. I've loved you since you decided to let me use your umbrella, even after I was rude to you all day. I love everything about you and everything about Chat Noir. Even your silly puns; because I'll let you in on a secret, your cat jokes are what make my day. You make me happy, even at my lowest moments you've been able to get me back up onto my feet. Adrien I'm sorry. I'm sorry for a-" I was cut off.

I was cut off by Adrien's lips, planted on mine. The kiss started off as gentle kiss. One that felt as though it was reassuring me that I didn't have to be sorry. That he didn't care what I had done wrong. He wrapped two hands around my waist, pulling me closer to him, almost to the point where I was straddling his lap.

"Adrien" I giggled. "Not in the hospital" I whispered, still giggling as he kissed my neck.

"I've been wanting to do that for so long M'Lady". Adrien said with a giggle. I got under the covers and I pulled him down with me.

I turned to face him in the bed and touched his nose with mine. His eyes were so close that I could just see his beautiful yet out of focus bright green eyes. "Stay with me Adrien. I don't want you to leave."

I heard him breathe a loud breath and he smiled a large reassuring smile. He turned me around and pulled me into a comfortable hug. I won't leave you Mari. I Promise. Cats honour".
