Is in school while writing most of this chapter. Teacher doesn't notice me because I'm sitting at the back of the band room and sitting on floor. I don't even play. I only play for 5- no wait, make that 2 and a half measures at the beginning of the song.

This will be exciting for the next 20 minutes

Chat Noir POV
——————————————————
After my sweet bugaboo left, I decided to go home as fast as I could, before Natalie or Father decided to go into my room, and see that its just recordings of violins playing, not me.

Sprinting as fast as I could, I ran across rooftops to get to what I call home. It's not really even a home anymore, more like a house that I sleep and eat in. Ever since Maman disappeared, Father hasn't been the same. Back when Maman was still here, I'd call father Papa. But he's grown cold and distant from me, like I'm not even his daughter anymore.

Without even realizing it, I was already standing on top of our roof. I carefully climbed in through my window, trying not to be seen or heard. As soon as I climb in, I immediately detransformed in case anyone decides to come in. I walk over to my speaker, where random violin songs are playing so if anyone passes by my room, they think I'll be in my room practicing.

As I'm walking over to the speaker to turn it off, my father walks in. He looks at me, then at my speaker, which is still playing music, and back at me.

"Marinette. Why aren't you practicing your violin? And why is the music playing from your speaker?"

"Fath-" I try to speak, but he cuts me off.

"You disgraceful little brat! I have given you everything you've ever wanted, and the least you could do is practice your violin."

As I stand there, listening to him speak, he starts coming closer to me until all I can see is his face, red with rage, glaring at me. He raises his hand, and after that, all I can feel is the stinging sensation on my cheek. Certain that there is a large red hand imprint on my face, my eyes swell up with tears.

"Maybe that will teach you a lesson, you unruly urchin!" With that he leaves the room, and leaves me in tears.

I need to get out of here. But where do I go? I thought. Oh! I know! I'll go to Adrien's house. He always lets me hang out with him. "P-Plagg!" I call, "W-We need t-to g-go. E-eat some ch-cheese a-and we'll l-leave." I say through tears. Plagg gladly ate the stinky camembert cheese after I fetch some from the fridge.

"Plagg, transform me!"

After venturing across the city, I reach my destination. Like usual, I tap on his window to let him know I'm there, but, no one answers, so I open the window and sit down on his green and blue chaise. While I'm waiting, my mind wanders back to the memory that was burned into my mind only moments ago. My eyes water again and I let out sobs. In my attempt to comfort myself while I wait for my prince(See, because adrien calls mari princess so, yeah. I'm so good at this), I put my head in my arms, with my elbows on my knees to support my arms. While sobbing, which by now has progressed very much in sound, I didn't notice Adrien come into his room through the trapdoor. 

"Kitty? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Adrien questions as he walks over and sits beside me. I lift my head up out of my hands, and look at him. He reaches his arms out to me, silently asking if he could hug me. I reach my arms out also, and hugged him. And he hugged back. I sob into his shoulder, probably getting it soaked with my tears. It seems like hours of me crying, and Adrien hugging me tightly, while stroking my hair. After I calmed myself down enough, I started to speak.
