Marichat Day 8 || Don't tell me what to do

Thank you to MiraculousPotatouwu for helping me type up this chapter!

Marinette cursed as one she heard the familiar thuds on her ceiling. Of all the times he had to come, why now?

There was a knock on her trapdoor.

"Let yourself in!" Marinette called from the bathroom, "I'm busy."

She could see the trapdoor creaked open, and Chat Noir climbed into her room.

"I'll be out in a minute!" She yelled, "Hold on a second!"

It took Marinette a few minutes to finish up what she was doing in the bathroom.

"What are you doing here?" Grumbled Marinette.

Chat Noir blinked at her, confused. "Um... I'm here to see you? Is something wrong?"

Marinette flopped on her chaise lounge, looking very pissed.

"Purr-incess, are you okay?" He asked, reasonably concerned. Marinette growled at him. "Don't call me that."

This only added to Cat Noir's confusion, "W-Why? Did I do something?" He asked.

His worry was so touching, even if she was rude in return. He was constantly there for her, and always so sweet, and kind, and sincere.

Shoot, she was crying.

It wasn't even a second before Cat Noir was at her side.

"Marinette, what happened? Are you okay? Why are you crying? Do you need anything?"

Marinette didn't respond.

"I can't try to help you if you don't tell me. Just tell me what happened and I-"

"Don't tell me what to do!"

Cat Noir's ears went flat against his head, and his tail drooped. "I-I'm sorry, I just-"

Marinette cut him off by pulling him into a tight embrace. This was really beyond confusing."

"No, Kitty. I'm sorry. You didn't deserve that." Marinette apologized, pulling away. "If I tell you what's going on, do you promise not to act all grossed-out?"

"Why would I do that?" Asked Cat Noir.

Marinette bit her lip. "I got my period for the first time."

Cat Noir's eyes widened. Marinette wasn't sure how she expected him to act, but it certainly wasn't this.

"I'm so sorry. I'm an idiot for not realizing it sooner. Do you need me to get you anything? Water? Are you hungry?"

Ge definitely reacted better than she had expected.

"Just stay here with me." She said, pulling him onto her chaise with her. "You're warm."

Cat Noir calmed down. "Sure thing, Princess."

It wasn't long before Marinette fell asleep. Cat Noir picked her up and tucked her into her bed, kissing her goodnight on her forehead. He was about to leave, but Marinette cracked her eyes open slightly.

"Sorry, did I wake you?"

"Please stay here. I need you with me." She murmured, half asleep.

"Anything for you." He smiled at her and lay at her side, letting her snuggle against him all she liked as they both drifted off to sleep.

He didn't usually stay the night, but it was the weekend, and he was allowed to sleep in. As long as he was careful, he wouldn't get caught. But now, it wasn't time for Cat Noir to think of those things, he'd worry in the morning. Right now, it was time to admire his beautiful girlfriend and sleep.
