The Truth

Remembering

Ladybug and Chat Nior sat on lookout, but the same question lurked in both their minds, what had happened during the Oblivio attack? Chat Nior sat on top of the Eiffel Tower beside the love of his life. It was almost 11pm and they had been trying to piece together what had happened all week. It had been almost a year since the last night-time akuma attack, so they would regularly just do a quick search and then sit up on the top of the famous landmark.

"We both know what each other is thinking M'Lady, so why don't we just try talking. The frustration on your face is cute, but my head hurts trying to figure it all out. If we work together we might be able to piece together it all." Chat Noir looked deep into Ladybugs bluebell eyes. She looked back, not as longingly as her partner, but still a deep look.

"What? No puns kitty?" Chat smirked, he loved his Ladybug, whether she would feel the same or not. His love was unconditional. Chat gave her a look, as if to say, Seriously?

"Fine. I have a few relocations, but they don't piece together." She said bowing her head, hoping Chat didn't remember what she was referring to. After the attack, when things were brought back to normal, she and Chat were close, as if they were scared and protecting each other, then they realised they had had a moment as Ayla had called it. To be clearer, a kiss.

"I know what your talking about, but maybe it was just like Dark Cupid. One of us needed saving." Ladybug could hear the disappoint in his voice, she knew all he wanted was to know who she was, or at least have her love him in her superhero form. Chat continued, regaining his careless attitude.

"Like you said, we can't remember anything, even from before we were struck by Oblivio's powers." Ladybug nodded in agreement.

"Its getting late kitty. We should go, I have school in the morning, and I'm guessing by your immature attitude, your still in school. I think Paris will be safe for tonight." Ladybug was about to swing, when she felt a hand, or paw, grab her waist.

"Just think Ladybug. We would be so much closer as a team if we just knew who we were under the masks! Hawkmoth is catnapping, he won't know who we are if he isn't overlooking the city watching the chaos. Paw-rty paw-lease Bugaboo." He looked lovingly into her eyes, begging for her to agree, but, against his wishes, Ladybug had left him, swinging gracefully across the rooftops.

"Follow her, in Chat's form, then bug her until you find out who she is. Your frustrated, I can tell Adrien, and that means less cheesy goodness for me! Go to her!" Plagg was trying to convince him to go, but he respected Ladybug and wouldn't go against her wishes, even at the price he had to pay for it.

Marinette Dupain-Cheng landed peacefully on her bed, being careful not to wake her parents. She watched as her red kwami tumbled in the air until landing next to the secret stash of cookies. Marinette couldn't help but giggle.

"I'm glad you haven't revealed to Chat Nior who you really are Marinette. But I'm starting to see his point. It would be so much easier if you didn't have to hide from him when you needed to transform." Tikki suddenly stopped, realising what she had said.

"W-what! Wait. When I hide to transform, it's only so people around me don't see, and that's mainly my class mates. Because that witch, Chloe, always messes up someone's day. But that's besides the point. I've always thought that Chat would go to a completely different school, live on the other side of Paris. But if I am hiding to transform and I am also hiding from the face behind the mask, Chat Nior is one of my classmates, or schoolmates I mean he goes to the same school as me!" Marinette could feel her heart beat rising, she never realised how close the two superheros could have been. Her mind was going wild, until she saw Tikki with a worried expression on her face.
