an: miraculous: the tales of ladybug and chat noir
chat is coy and riskayy
i refuse to edit atm :p

"who is he? i think i could help you," chat noir sat next to ladybug as she looked to the moon.

"oh no you don't have to do that," she blushed, waving him off but he didn't buy it.

"no m'lady, i'd love to help, but i need to know who he is first of all," he chuckled, sitting on the ledge of the building, back toward the edge. "i am a superhero after all."

"i am too so thanks but no thanks chat," ladybug was profusely sweating in her suit but she couldn't take it off or change into something less heat trapping.

"you said yourself you didn't have to nerve to just ask him so let me help-to make up for not helping with this mission." his heart was heavy, but he thought if he could help make her happy that would be enough.

she could just be his close friend and...

that would be enough.

"you couldn't help because you were akumatized, there's no helping that chat, so why don't i help you out? y'know with that girl you were just talking about? i'm sure she'd be estatic to learn that the chat noir is on love with her," ladybug smiled as she was able to turn the tables around and put chat noir in the hot seat.

"oh, there's no need..." he waved a clawed hand toward her.

"and why not?"

"because... she's in love with someone else."

"oh i'm so sorry, i didn't mean-"

"you can make it up to me by telling me who you like~" he smirked, looking to the other hero. she tried to find a way out but couldn't think fast enough. her earring blinked, signally her time was running out.

"uh uh i don't think-"

"nuh uh uh m'lady, tell me~" he smirked, grabbing her wrist so she couldn't leave. his own ring flashed, but he didn't care, he was invested.

"come-on chat, let go," she whined not actually wanting to hurt her partner in crime. her earring blinked again and she scrambled, slapping a hand over his eyes as she transformed back into marinette. her action caused chat to fall backwards off the building. he had fairly quick reflexes, stabbing his staff into a crevice into the building, allowing himself to dangle. he saw a female arm stick out from the top.

"take my hand but don't look," marinette called to chat noir as his second claw flicked off.

"now you have to tell me," he smirked as he kept his eyes shut and felt his way back up onto the roof.

"bu-"

"tell me or i'll open my eyes!"

"adrienagrest!"

"wait... who? what did you say?" chat was shell shocked to the least.
wait, ladybug likes me! oh my-but i can't. she can't know i'm chat noir. ugh why must life be so hard??

"i haveacrushonadrienagreste! now please let go," she easily peeled his hands from her hand and wrist. she walked to the normal exit from the roof, now just a normal person.

"wait m'lady! i can't help if I don't-" she shut the roof door, "-know who you are," he sighed, letting his hero costume fade off.

"what was that?" plagg asked as adrien slumped against the little wall lining the roof. "shouldn't you be happy? ladybug likes you," he floated around the blonde's face.

"yeah... but i don't know who she really is-and i could never tell her."

......

"hey marinette!" adrien called to his friend, still bummed out about the day before. he understood why ladybug wouldn't completely trust him but it still hurt. marinette's cheeks blazed red, causing her to also think about the night before. she couldn't believe she actually told chat noir she liked adrien, and if he had actually gone and told him-
