Love Is Miraculous

Chapter 13

YOUR P.O.V




I ran to my room and shut the door. I slid my back against the door and broke down into tears. What's happening!? I looked at the ring that was previously Adrian's. I wanted to scream so I grabbed a pillow and screamed into it.
"Hey, what's the matter?" I didn't think anyone was here. I didn't recognize the voice either. I looked up to see this weird small cat thing floating in the air. I let out a small shriek and threw myself back.
"Whoa, I'm sorry. Didn't mean to scare you. Where have you been? I heard that another akuma's been let out." I was stunned to see this thing in my room talking to me. It looked at me confused.
"What's happening? I'm dreaming. This is all just one big weird dream." I said to myself. I started banging my head against the wall trying to wake up from this weird dream. The cat thing looked concerned and confused. When I finally stopped hitting my head I asked a bunch of questions.
"Do you have amnesia or something?" the small floating cat asked. It sighed and explained everything. He said his name is Plagg and that the ring I have is magic and I am a hero known as Cat Noir. I fight evil villains that have been akumatized with Ladybug. Plagg explained how I came to find the ring. I apparently just found it in an old jewelry box. We supposedly don't know who Ladybug is but all we know is the HE'S a high school student.
"What. Is. Happening!?" I exclaimed. I once again banged my head against the wall. 1. Ladybug is a guy!? Then that means Marionette isn't Ladybug. 2. I'M CAT NOIR!? 3. Adrian doesn't know me! I can't do this without him! He's the only one that could keep me sane in a situation like this besides Cat Noir but, apparently I'm Cat Noir so that's not going to help. Plagg told me how to use it because I "had forgotten".
What's wrong with my life? How did this happen? When-- The blurry person I saw on the roof tops. Maybe he has something to do with all this! I went downstairs in search of my mother. I didn't find her but I did find.... My dad. I hadn't seen him since I was like 5. He left my mother for someone else that was younger and richer. I didn't know him well but I remembered that I used to think he was a hero. I looked up to him and wanted to be everything that he was.
"D-dad?" I walked close to him. He turned and smiled. It's like he never changed.
"Hey my little kitten! Photo shoot went well?" His voice was cheerful and smooth like silk. It's like we never had any bad arguments in our life. It's like we had this very special and profound father-daughter relationship.
"Y-yeah. What are you doing?"
"Oh, just going through some old photos of your mother."
"What happened to her?"
"Kitten, I told you many times." He chuckled.
"R-right. Will you tell me again?" He sighed and put one hand on my shoulder.
"One night, on our 24th anniversary, we were on our way to pick you up from the sitter's. A car hit us and killed your mother on impact while I was left with a few broken bones." Tears rolled down my cheek as I heard this tragic story. My dad wiped my tears and gave me a hug.

I went back to my room and filled a hand bag with my phone and a carving knife. I even packed some snacks. I asked if Plagg wanted to come. He decided to stay. I was fine with him staying here but I was worried about if anyone saw him. I headed out to my favorite tree. I climbed it to the highest point I could ever go. I took out my carving knife to put my initials. To my surprise, my initials and Adrian's were carved on there inside a heart.
"That's odd. I could've sworn this wasn't here earlier. And why a heart? I wonder who wrote this." I put down my knife. It fell off and hit the ground. I groaned about to get off to get it when I heard someone come up. It was Adrian! He poked his head up and smiled.
"I think you dropped this. Hey, wait, I seen you before. Yeah, in magazines! Wow, you're even more prettier in person."
"Um, thanks?"
"So what are you doing up here? Gunna carve something?"
"Well, I was going to carve my initials but it seems like someone already has along with yours." I saw a slight blush appear on his cheeks. When he didn't saw anything I continued, "What are you doing up here?"
"I always come here in my free time. I always feel drawn to it, like it has a special meaning."
"I know what you mean." Silence for a few seconds and I ask if Adrian would like to sit with me and talk. He looked do happy to be sitting with me and talking with me. I was "famous" of course. We talked like we normally would. It was comforting. I missed it. But I love Cat Noir. I need to find a way to get things back to normal again and ASAP.
