I Can't See You

"Ladybug, is that you?"

Marinette stood there confused. Did he know she was Ladybug? He looking was right at her.

"Can I touch your face."

Adrien asked. It was a weird request but she took his hands a placed it on other sides of her face.

"I'm sorry."

He said. Marinette not understanding why he was starting to get watery. Adrien what to remember everything about his Lady. He thought she would replace him due to his new condition.

"For what?"

"I saved you. And I'm glad I did. I won't ever take it back but if I had one do over I would want the last thing I saw'll to be you walking down a long isle to me dressed in white. I'll never see our kids faces. I'll never see our grandchildren but I wouldn't take it back if it meant that you wouldn't be standing in front of me. Ladybug, I love you."

Marinette burst into tears. He didn't say that to Ladybug. He said that to Marinette. He sacrificed his eye sight to save Ladybug not Marinette. Not Marinette.

"Don't cry."

Adrien said as he wiped some of her tears. He couldn't see her reaction but he could hear her tears.

"Adrien..... I'm not Ladybug."

"You have to be. Your voice I'd know it anywhere your Ladybug."

"Adrien.... I'm.... Marinette."

"Marinette?.... But your voice.."

He pressed his forehead against hers. He wanted to see his Lady just one more time. Was that to much to ask?

"I'm not her."

"Marinette.... could you tell her I love her?"

He asked. He couldn't face his Lady not when he just confessed to the wrong girl. It was inexcusable he knew how Marinette felt about him.

"She already knows.."

Marinette said trying to bring herself up from the depths of heartbreak.

"You traded you sight for her life. Why are you so stupid? I don't care how much you love her."

She hugged him. Crying into his chest. Why was she so mad at him? He saved her.

"Marinette, please."

"I could of saved myself.... I could of saved Chat.... I could of Lucky charmed my way out of this.... I could of fix it. But this your sight I can't."

Adrien put to and to together he was right. He was talking to Ladybug.

"Marinette,.... why did you say your not Ladybug?"

"Because I'm not anymore."

Those few words struck Adrien. Marinette was his Bugaboo. She was going to give up. Just give up because things became too difficult something Adrien thought she would never do.

"This isn't your fault."

"Your blind and ChatNoir is dead. Why can't Ladybug die with him."

"Marinette... claws out."

Marinette kept her head in his chest.

"Look at me Marinette."

She looked up and to her surprise it was ChatNoir her Knight in shining leather.

"I love you, Marinette."

He said as he went to kiss her but she moved away.

"I'm sorry but you love Ladybug. And I'm no longer her."
