Miraculous Song

Date Day

(Y/n's pov)
Of all days why today? Hawkmoth I am starting to hate you more and more! Once again an Akuma had started attacking Paris, some dude with a strange liking to ducks I guess. Once again I dodged a bombardment of feathers and hid against the wall of a building, I heard a breeze behind me and groaned realizing that Chat Noir was behind me.

"Look Kitty Litter I don't have time for you two today so let's just end this guy and call it a day.", I growled baring my fangs at him.

"Y-yeah...sure just a sec-AAACHOOO!", Chat sneezed.

Ladybug soon appeared by us with some spare allergy medicine for her partner, was he allergic to ducks?

"Hey Howl got any tricks up for sleeves to take out the ducks?", Ladybug asked knocking back several of them before they attacked me.

"I can quack at them if you'd like? I've seen dogs quack instead of bark before.", I joked trying to keep my stress hidden.

The fur on my body began to shine a dull brown hue, in Subordinate mode I could control the minds of people or things focusing on the same thought or idea and change it to accommodate to what the "pack" or situation needed. Once all the duckies were distracted and Foul Play was helpless Ladybug and Chat Noir quickly captured the akuma and returned things to normal.

"Okay cool! Same time next week?", I cheered trying to bolt as quickly as I could.

"Hey wait up what's the rush? Listen I know I haven't been the nicest of people to you-", oh Ladybug please don't start monologuing, "but I can see now that you're a skilled hero and I want to offer you an apology."

"Okay apology accepted, thanks I love you bye! Also kiss my duck Kitty Litter!", I screeched shoving a Duck into Chat Noir's face to induce his sneezing fits again!

Soon I was back down in the alley way and back in my civilian clothes, Ginn stared at me with a happy look on his face as I struggled to get feathers out of my hair.

"You're in a rather good mood today.", Ginn chuckled picking a little feather from my hair.

I couldn't help but smile as a blush danced across my face, "It's because my date is today."

My phone began to ring and upon seeing the caller ID I almost dropped it! It was Luka, I quickly answered and Luka asked if I wanted to meet earlier since he had something extra planned. I checked my outfit in the mirror of a nearby store and decided to say yes since I looked decent enough, of course my hair was still a feathery wreck but maybe he wouldn't notice.

"Yeah I'll see you there.", I responded calmly.

"Cool I'll see you in a bit (Y/n).", Luka cheered.

Damn I don't have time to change! Maybe I should hurry up and buy a new outfit and or-! Wait there's a shop nearby that sells this stupidly cute Chat Noir themed jacket, I can buy that and tie my hair back! I agreed with my idea and headed off to that shop where thankfully they had one in my size, I used the dressing room mirror to fix my hair and comb out the feathers before paying and running down to the cafe. On the way I ran into Alya and her mat-I mean boyfriend Nino, she was obviously aware of my need to hurry.

"Where are you off to, trouble maker?", Alya teased.

"I'm gonna go dance with the captain of a pirate ship!", I explained trying to be subtle about my clues.

Alya smiled seeing me so enthusiastic and let me run by, soon enough I could see Luka waiting for me in front of the coffee shop. He heard me running and turned to me with a smile but I somehow was clumsy enough to run into the lifted piece of the sidewalk and fell right on top of him. He chuckled at my clumsy antics and asked if I was alright which I immediately replied no to since I was so embarrassed.

"Looks like your falling for me just as fast as I fell for you.", Luka chuckled unaware of how loud he said it.

"What did you say?", I played on curious if he blurted it out on accident.

His face turned bright red and he quickly lifted us both up to our feet, he quickly asked for the table he had reserved for us but I swear he had said something important. Once we were served our cake and coffee we had started a conversation about music and it drifted off into super heroes which made Luka's inner need come out. Seeing his sapphire hues light up in excitement as he ranted about Ladybug and Carapace was the cutest thing in the world. He seemed to happy telling me stories and I was happy just to listen even he was a little to focused on the topic. His smile was dangerously contagious and for the first time he saw a genuine smile grace my face. The moment he saw me smile he stopped talking, completely lost of words for what I had just done. I looked away smiling hiding it under my hand while I mentally ranted about how he was still possibly single?

"Umm (y/n) are you okay?", He asked petting my cheek to catch my attention.

I smiled at him, unaware of the blush dancing over my face, and replied, "I'm amazing Luka, I'm really glad I got to meet you and I'm glad I get to be here with you today.", I admitted through a goofy smile.

"I am too...but I want to know more about you (y/n). About your past, about why you came here, about you.", Luka explained resting his hand softly on top of mine as if to reassure me that everything was alright to talk about.

Could I really trust him with something as big as my past? Was that an option?

"Alright...but not here. I always tend to choke up and I don't want these people judging me while I cry.", I explained.

Luka seemed happy that I agreed and posted for the check before taking me to a spot he felt was safe. A quiet spot by the riverbank just outside of town, I felt peaceful here and almost why we were here. Luka climbed into the tree that was nearby and soon landed again with blankets and pillows.

"I tend to come here alot when I have something on my mind.", He explained setting up the blanket for us to sit on.

I couldn't help but smile at his cute antics, what the hell did I do to ever meet someone as special as him. Luka chuckled at me and patted the spot next to him for me to sit. I did so and stared off at the river as I tried to decide where I should start.

"So...where are you from?", Luka asked fiddling with his blue bangs.

"I was born in Japan, but was raised in China with my mom's side of the family. I lived a pretty happy life there until the incident 11 years ago."

Luka gave me a curious look as if asking me to continue.

"My family died...by the hands of some evil super villians. My whole family was slaughtered and my mom was the last one alive to protect me...but like everyone else she died. The villains burned our house to the ground and the only reason I survived was because my lifted up the cellar door with what little strength she had left and forced me inside.", I rolled up my sleeve to show Luka the scar I strained from the incident, a scar from the left side of my wrist going all the way down to my elbow, "She promised she'd come get me but even I knew that the disgusting smell that I was forced to inhale was the smell of my burning family. Since then I've been alone, I used to steal from the village for food because I had no one else to look after me. I picked up habits I know my mom would be disappointed in but I did it in order to survive."

Luka noticed the tears brimming at the corner of my eyes and softly wiped them away with his thumbs before pulling me into a warm hug, "It's okay...we can finish your story another time. I'm sorry I made you cry.", He whispered rubbing my back softly to calm me down.

Kinda sucks that I ruined our date by crying but at least...at least for the first time in a long time I felt safe in someone's arms.

"Thank you Luka.", I sighed relaxing against his chest.

"Well...maybe we'll be able to go out again another time.", He blushed trying to keep his composer.

I smiled at his suggestion and sighed, "I'd love to."
