When darkness falls (ChatNoir x reader)

Chap 7. Unexpected visitors and videogames

-name's pov-

I was sitting by the desk in my room in front of the computer, listening to music and playing Assassin's Creed (or whatever your favourite game is). The teacher had given us a bunch of homework, so I had decided to treat myself with some hours of fun gaming after all the school stuff. To balance your time is important after all, am I right?

Hours had passed bye, and I hadn't even realised it had gotten dark outside. My eyes travelled to the corner of the screen where the time read 11:42 and I started debating with myself if I should go to bed or not.

ah screw it, I thought and dove back into the game. However, I only got to play for a few minutes before the sound of footsteps came from the roof. what the frick is going on up there? I asked myself, both annoyed and confused. Is someone fixing their Wi-Fi signal?. Luckily it didn't took vary long before it stopped. Then something appeared outside of my window, it was leaping from rooftop to rooftop.

-is that...? I squinted my eyes and saw the figure stop a few blocks away from mine. I flung open my window and shouted into the dark, -hey, Chat Noir! Over here! He turned and towards the sound and began making his way back to me with a smile on his face.

-I hope your happy, cuz your loud feet made me loose the chance to loot a rare bow. I teased with a cheeky smile. He laughed a little when he understood I was just messing with him. -what are you doing out so late anyway? The hero's smile fell. -I couldn't sleep... Just needed to get out of the house for a while. He shrugged like it wasn't a big deal.

I tried to sympathise, -yeah, sometimes I have too much on my mind too. Chat Noir gave me a look that said thank you, but I had a feeling that there was something else that was bothering him. Something he didn't felt like he could talk with me about, but I wasn't going to push it any further.

-Do you want to get inside for a bit? I asked. Mostly because I wanted to close the window before it got too cold. My body just hates it when the seasons change and the change in temperature that comes with it. I always get catch a flue during autumn and spring... and I hate it.

The black cat happily leaped down from the open window and started looking around. -you have a really nice room. He stated and stopped to inspect a Jagged Stone poster while I closed the window. -thanks, I smiled. -I know it's a bit small, but I don't do much else than gaming, homework and sleeping in here anyway.

-I see you draw a little too. He chuckled and held out a chibi drawing I had made of him and hadn't bothered to put away. My face turned red, of course. -he he, yup! Was all I could say as he folded it together nicely and put it in his pocket.

-if you wouldn't mind? he asked before zipping it shut. -that will be 10 euros thank you very much. I joked. We both laughed a little, but it was quickly silenced when we heard someone coming towards the door, then a knock. -I'm going to bed now kiddo. It was my dad. -I know that it's Saturday tomorrow, but don't stay up too late, okay? he yawned, and it took me a couple of seconds to get my shit together before I answered. -got it, night dad!

Once the footsteps disappeared I let out a big sigh of relive, I had panicked so much I hadn't even realised I had hold my breath. -that was close. Chat Noir whispered. He looked as panicked as I did. However, after a few seconds we couldn't keep serious and started laughing like crazy.

-beep, beep, beep. Chat Noir looked at his ring. -I must have been out on patrol longer than I thought. He looked towards the window and I understood that he had to leave. -well, it was nice with a visitor. I smiled. -maybe next time you'll stay a bit longer?

-you would want that? The hero asked. -of course! I replied and hugged him tightly before he thanked me and leaped out of the window again. Next time I want to ask if I can try his ring. I thought and flopped down on my bed, falling asleep. 

so, i have finally got my lazy-ass self to write a new chapter on this story. how long has it been... a year i belive? the inspiration for this book is long gone, but that doesn't mean i will not finish it. I'm thinking about wrapping up the story in maby one or two (if not three) more chapters before calling it quit. 

I also know that this is a shorter chapter, but I didn't want to drag it out too much with uninteresting small talk between the characters just to get it to 1000+ words, wich is what i usually ame for.
