~*. Mon Petit Minou .*~

III. - Paying a 'Small Visit' To The Princess -

:'| Adrien's P.O.V |':

When I heard the screams that were coming from the distance, I threw my books on the marble floor, transformed into Chat Noir. I carefully sneaked out of my bed room window, ran to the location, where the screams were coming from. 

When I arrived at the park, I noticed Ladybug, who was hiding behind a tree to watch the akuma's movements. She probably already knew the object that was akumatized, and the Akuma's weakness. "Hello, M'lady~" I said in my usual flirty manner. "Hey, Minou." She said while watching the akuma.

"So, have you found the weakness of this Akuma yet?" I asked as I walked over her to see the Akuma. "No, she seems strong." She said, shaking her head. "But I think I know where the Akuma is hiding." Ladybug said with a grin. "What, really? Where?" I asked, tilting my head to the side. "Do you see that brooch? The one that's pinned on her jacket." I looked at the akuma. "Yeah? You think that's where it's hiding?" Ladybug nodded. "But we need to find her weakness before attacking."

.:'Ladybug's P.O.V ':.

After making up a plan with Chat, we attacked the Akuma. It was really strong and it took a long while. We were both really tired, I used my Lucky'Charm 2 times! But, long story short, we finally defeated the akuma.

"Pound it!" We both exclaimed as our fists met, making that iconic fist-bump before turning to the young female to ask her why she got possesed by an akuma. When she explained the story, we gave her some friendly-advice before jumping away, leaving the young female by herself once again. 

 When I reached my bakery, I threw myself on the bed as I tossed a cookie to Tikki, who now got out of my earrings. "That Akuma was really strong." I said, letting out a sigh. "Yeah, but she had a good reason to be sad. Getting rejected by your loved ones is always hard." Tikki said as she took a small bite from her cookie. I nodded my head in agreement before closing my eyes, falling fast-asleep. 

When I woke up, it was 1 am. When I sat up, I noticed two green orbs which were staring at me with a smile. I shook my head, then got out of the bed to let Chat into the room.

:'| Chat Noir's P.O.V |':

When I got back to my mansion, I entered my bedroom. I de-transformed as soon as I stepped on the marble floor. I walked over the small fridge to give my kwami a wheel of cheese that smelt like a dirty pair of socks. Ew. Disgusting. 

I layed my tired body on my queen-sized bed, read a book while waiting for Plagg to wake up, since I was planning on visiting Mari tonight. I sincerely wanted to study with her, but since there was an akuma... I thought I could go as Chat. She enjoyed Chat's company anyways. 

Plagg finally woke up in the middle of the night. After letting him swallow a piece of cheese, I transformed into my alternative-ego Chat Noir, and sneaked out of my bedroom window to visit a certain girl.

 When I arrived at Marinette's bakery, I saw her sleeping figure. She was in a deep sleep, so I knocked on the window to get the girl's attention. She woke up a short while later, and let me into her small, but warm room.

.:' Marinette's P.O.V  ':.

"Hey, Kitty!" I greeted my partner, who didn't know about my identity. "Hello, Princess~ I really missed you, so I decided to pay a small visit to you." He said with a flirty wink that caused me to roll my blue eyes. "Welcome then, Chat." I said while leading him to the balcony. I picked a large blanket before climbing on the balcony. 

We both sat on the old, comfortable couch and wrapped our bodies into the blanket I got. Chat was staring at the dark night-sky that was lit up by the faint light of the large moon, the bright light of the small stars, and of course the city lights that surrounded the sky in awe. I leaned on the couch, hugging the blanket tightly. 

"Chat, you are oddly quiet today. Is something the matter?" I asked a long while later. He never talked to me, and kept staring at the sky. That was not like the Chat Noir I knew as my partner, and best friend. He turned his gaze to me. "No, everything is fine, Purrinces~ I guess I am a little tired. That Akuma fight was exhausting." He said with a chuckle. I nodded. "Yeah, it took a long time... Maybe you should go back to your house and get some sleep." I suggested. Chat shook his head. "No! I mean, no.. I don't want to go back there." I raised a brow, confused by the sudden yell that escaped from Chat's dry lips. "Why not?" I asked. 

"That place doesn't feel like home. I think it is just a modern prison cell with comfort. My parents are never there, and the only thing they talk about it my grades, and things like that. No one cares about my mental state, or feelings. I am just a tool to them." He said, covering his face with his gloved hands to hide the tears that started to roll down from his soft cheeks.

I frowned. I didn't know that Chat lived in a house like that, it must be really hard. Adrien also has the same problem with his father. Mr. Agreste really is a cold man. "Chat, you can stay for the night if you want." I said when I looked back at his green, watery eyes. I carefully wiped the tears off his cheeks with my hands. 

"Thanks, Marinette." He said with a sad smile as he wrapped his muscular arms around me, giving me a warm, friendly hug. I hugged back. "What are friends for?" I said, patting his back. "Come inside, we can watch some movies on the computer while eating croissants." I smiled. "Sounds like a clawesome plan, Purrincess~" He said with a chuckle. I smiled at him. I felt happy since he managed to cheer up a little.

Chat chose a movie  as I went down to get some snacks and make two cups of coffee. When I got back up, we sat on my bed, hugging  each other's warm bodies while eating the croissants and drinking the coffee. Since he chose a Horror - Movie, we had no other choice except for hugging the blanket, and each other. 

It was one of the best nights of my 14 - years - long life. Hugging his warm body while eating his favourite snacks and watching a dumb horror movie that was supposed to be scary. I layed my head on his shoulder as I got a sip from my coffee. He probably didn't notice it, since he was way too focused on the movie he picked.
