Cat Noir entered back into his room. He began to detransform and plop his head against the pillow. Tomorrow would be the day. He had to talk to Marinette. He clearly hurt her! For the past 2 weeks she had been completely different. She was, empty. That presence that she usually had around her had faded. That warm, glistening smile she had that could almost brighten up a room. It was all gone, leaving an empty shell. And it was all because of him. The same exact thing was happening to his lady as well. Her usual presence had also faded. But instead, replace with fear. She was now always so skittish around him. Probably due to his akumatization. -I really hope I didn't hurt her.- he thought to himself. -All I want is her happiness. I just hope she can begin to trust me again-. He began to fold himself under the covers and fall asleep.
Adrien saw as Marinette walked into school. Again she had that soulless look on her face. He began to approach her. He tapped her shoulder when she jumped. "Gah!" Adrien's eyes widened. "Oh, I'm so sorry Marinette. Are you alright?" She turned around and met his face. Something about his face was familiar. And somehow, that scared her. Why couldn't she just get over herself and stop worrying? She took a deep breath in and nodded. "Yes, I'm fine. Sorry, you just startled me." he rubbed the back of his neck. "I-I wanted to apologize, I can see that I hurt you pretty badly. You're one of the most important people to me and I don't ever want to do that again. I hope you can forgive me." Marinette was shocked. Adrien did hurt her, but not as badly as he was describing. He must have picked up on her odd behavior and thought it was his fault. "Don't worry, Adrien, you didn't hurt me too badly. And of course I forgive you. We all make mistakes at times." Adrien pattered Marinette on the shoulder then caught her gaze. He suddenly was under the spell of her bluebell eyes. He was drowning in the beauty of them. When suddenly he shook his head and found his focus again. Something about her eyes gave him a sense of nostalgia. Her pupils had the same smallness and terror of... his lady. Marinette must have been lying to Adrien. Of course he had hurt her. Or... was it something else? -All I want is to know the truth-
~Hey Miraculers! For those of you who saw my last post I want to apologize for worrying you. I have decided to continue writing this. I saw this on the trending page and it gave me a new hope. I also realized that once you start something you have to finish~
