The Black Cat and His Princess

Chapter 7

Chat laid on the floor with Marinette over him. They were nose to nose, eye to eye.

He couldn't help it.

He just stared deeper and deeper into her eyes, hoping that this could last forever. Stay this close, taking in her bakery warmth and smell. And stare into her eyes for as long as he could.

He wished that this could've been a bit different though.

He wanted so badly to be hugging her instead, just have his face lay in the crook of her neck or at least be able to trace kisses along her face and neck.

The thought of cuddling and kissing Marinette made him giddy and light inside.

Subconsciously his hand trailed up her back to her cheek, causing Marinette's eyes to widen and clumsily stand back up.

She inhales as she tucked some hair behind her ear, in an act of pure embarrassment, then exhaling exasperatedly.

Chat picked himself up off the floor, trying to keep his thoughts from running circles in his brain as he itched his head.

'Ugh! Why did I do that!?'

He yelled at himself, annoyed at what he just did and began thinking that Marinette was probably annoyed of him too.

A deep blush covered her entire face. This was unbearable.

First, she tried to hug him. Then, she tripped on her own feet. Lastly, she fell on top of him and stared into his green cat eyes for a minute...or even longer!

But after all of that..he did cup her cheek..what was he going to do..?

He cupped her cheek and stared deeply into her eyes that entire time...his peach lips were just an inch away from hers..

'I could've kissed him'

She mentally slapped herself.

Chat rubs the back of his neck as a  blush paints his face, "I-I'm sorry...I don't know why...uh". He picks his feet up off the floor one by one, stepping his way towards her until he was standing somewhat in front of her.

"..princess?" He says hesitantly as she looks up at him.

She looks away from him, turning her head down towards the floor.

"I'm sorry-"

"Chat.." she whispers under her breathe, "I think" she looks back up at him.

She stares at him for a second, looking like she is trying to figure something out. She walks closer to him until she is looking up at him.

"...I think I'm falling in love with you.." she whispers.

His cheeks heat up as his eyes widen and heart skips a beat, feeling like it's trying to beat out of his chest.

She blinks, her blue eyes staring holes into his eyes with so much love and desire.

"I love you, Chat"

His gaze fell to her soft, plump, tempting lips and he slowly leaned down, letting a shaky breathe escape from his lips as his breath brushed her lips. Without hesitation he closed the gap between them, sealing his lips with hers and wrapping his arms around her waist.

Her eyes fluttered closed as soon as she felt his lips on hers. She missed his kiss and how it felt to be in his strong arms. She kissed him back, kissed him with more passion and gentleness than before.

He revelled in the softness, the sweet taste of her lips, and the gentle touch of her fingers as they slowly dragged up against his neck and buried themselves into his hair. He moaned happily.

He was finally kissing her again, caught in her embrace again, had her in his arms again..

His hand finds the crook of her neck and tilts her head back to deepen the kiss and get a better taste of her lips.

The kiss was long..longer and more passionate and loving than before.

Both of their faces were covered with red, both hearts were pounding uncontrollably, and both were smiling against each others lips.

"Marinette.." he breathes between a kiss, "I..love you.." he breathes against her lips, hearing her inhale sharply, causing him to steal her breathe away with another hot and heady kiss.

His left hand slides to her back and pulls her closer as his right hand tilts her head back more, letting him nibble and suckle her bottom lip.

She gasps, combing her fingers through his hair and gripping onto it, making a purr envelope and vibrate in Chat's throat.

She pulls away for a second as she sucks air into her lungs. Chat then grips onto her waist and whirls her around, pressing her back against the wall.

In that moment, he couldn't control himself.

This girl was driving him crazy, making him want to kiss her to his hearts content. He leaned over her staring down at her flushed face and removed his left hand from her waist to resting on the wall to support himself.

He moved his gaze to her dazed looking eyes and moved his lips under her jaw, trailing hot open mouthed kisses to her collar bone and back to her swollen mouth.

BEEP BEEP

Marinette moaned in disappointment as Chat's Miraculous flashed and sounded twice. Chat groaned back in equal disappointment, and pulled back. But closed his lips onto hers again, giving her a short sweet and gentle kiss as he began caressing her cheek with his leather covered thumb.

He pulls back hesitantly and smiles softly as he lets out a breathy sigh. He stares at her dazed expression and swollen kissable lips, wishing he could continue kissing her and feel the curves of her body with his gloved hands that wished to be uncovered.

She blushes and softly smiles.

He rests his forehead on hers, reveling in her warmth, "..can i take you to prom princess?"

"Yes kitty..you definitely can.." she wraps her arms around him, smiling sweetly.

She's going to prom with Chat, the one she loves the most. The one that cares about her and visits her almost every night.

One of her best friends.

She hugs him tighter, wishing he could stay with her longer.

"Well...It's time for me to go princess.." he says as he moves his hands to hers, intertwining his fingers with hers.

She nods her head and they both walk up to her balcony with hesitant feet and legs with the need to buckle.
