"Agh! Stop it."

No response.

"You're acting silly."

And again no answer.

"Adrien!"

Said model raised his head from a pillow he was muffling his screams into for the last half an hour. His blonde hair were in a huge mess and his green eyes were shining with elation. He was just happy to finally be at home. He still could feel hugs he received today at school from his friends. Moreover he was waiting anxiously for the time he and Ladybug usually have patrols. He was going to finally see his Lady!

Adrien was too overjoyed so he buried his head into the pillow and started screaming again.

"Agh! You're hopeless. You could've at least give me cheese, ya know" Plagg said glancing accusingly at his holder. Not seeing any reaction to his words, kwami sighed and flew away mumbling something on his way to the kitchen.

The famous black cat was running through the night to his and LB's meeting place. He came out way too early so Adrien decided that he would just knock around streets of Paris for a while. Oh, how much he missed this feeling of total freedom, missed the wind that was running through his hair and the utterly amazing view he has been given. He didn't really thought of where he was going or in what part of the city he was then. It didn't matter. Chat Noir was lucky, despite the fact that he was the symbol of unluckiness and destruction, to have a double life and to know such an amazing person as Ladybug. He was lucky to have Nathalie as his father's assistant, cause he knew for sure it was her, who get Gabriel to let Adrien go to school. He was lucky to be in exact same class as Nino and Alya. He was lucky to meet such a great and loyal friend as Marinette was. But his unluckiness was rubbing on him sometimes. His mother, the one who always was near him, one who he loved, disappeared few years ago. His father was so cold and abusive that Adrien even wondered was Gabriel a robot or something. He still has to do all the photo shoots, go on fencing, piano and Chinese classes only to make him proud, to let him know that he is not useless.

And yet, Adrien was the sweetest and nicest boy. He cared for others, he was ready to give his life for his friends and Ladybug. Heck! He was ready to give his life for his father, even if Mr.Agreste wouldn't be somewhat amazed by this.

As his mood started becoming even more gloomy he shook his head trying not to think of it. Not the time. Soon he spotted familiar blue-haired girl, who he supposed was either feeling sick or had to help her parents in a bakery cause she didn't come to school today. Maybe he should chat with her for a while.

Marinette was rushing home cause, as usual, she forgot about the night patrol and went to Alya. She remembered only when her best friend said that she was going to try and catch Ladybug on today's patrol. 'Why can't I ever remember anything?! I hope Cosmy is going to be late too. Or at least will think that I'm—' her track of thoughts was interrupted by someone's hand on her shoulder and painfully familiar voice called: "Princess!"

Marinette jumped and then abruptly turned around only to meet a pair of shining green eyes staring at her. She was left speechless for a while. But as her thoughts came back to her, she realized that she was Marinette at the point, and didn't know him well enough to embrace him in a tight hug, even if she wanted to so badly. Gotta wait for a better time.

"What the hell?"

"Uh... erm... sorry... I didn't mean to startle you" Chat grinned sheepishly at the girl. "I just thought it would be nice to talk with a friend, who I didn't see in a while. Were you going home? I can take you there much faster, since I can run on roofs, ya know?" His smirk coming back on his face, as he drifted a bit closer.

"Uh... Sure. I'd like some company, but... aren't you supposed to be on a patrol?"

'Hope he won't get suspicious'

"Oh, yeah! Thanks! I– Uh, was deep in thoughts, so I kind of... forgot? Anyway, gotta go!"

The cat was ready to leave, but stopped himself, turning back to Marinette.

"See you again soon, right?"

The girl nodded her head, smiling sweetly at him. With that, Chat leaved, and Marinette quickly ran home, to transform and get to the meeting spot as soon as possible.

~~~

She still didn't know how she managed to be there before Chat. Like, seriously, did he get lost or something? 'Or maybe he's seeing another 'Princess' of him?' The girl shook her head trying to get rid of a small voice in her mind. Was it jealousy? No, definitely no. She wasn't jealous. Not even a bit.

'I can do this. I can do this. What am I even afraid of? It's not like she forgot about me already or that she doesn't need me anymore. But what if she did?!' Chat felt himself even more unsure. He wanted to finally see her and speak to her. Maybe, just maybe even hug her. But, oh, he wasn't able. Too worried. Too much time not seeing her. 'It's useless. I have to do it. It's now or never' he thought, finally landing right behind her.

Ladybug immediately turned her head toward him, and as a second of a silence have passed, her face lit up instantly and her smile grew wild, her eyes shining with happiness and something else, he couldn't really figure out what exactly. She jumped on her legs and ran toward him, he dissolved his hands, inviting her for a hug. She springs upon his stature, embracing him tightly.

Chat Noir smiled wildly, wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her more into him and spinning her around. She hid her face in the corner of his neck, so he could feel her breathes upon his bare skin. He snuggled up to her, scenting her smell of cinnamon and cookies he missed so much. Neither of them let go of the grip, enjoying the moment of reunion of the two young lovers.

Too soon for Chat's liking, Ladybug pulled away, so she could see him properly now. He let out a sigh, that caused the blue-haired girl to giggle. She looked him into the eyes, smiling brightly again.

"I've missed you too, kitty"

He was ready to say something, using as much puns as he could think of, but was cut off.

"Ahem. I'm sorry to ruin the meow-ment, but we still need the paw-trol to do" a voice, Adrien have never heard before, said so he took a step back from Ladybug (he didn't even notice the 'voice' using cat puns) only to see a girl in exact replica of his costume, despite it was cosmos-like instead of black.

"Hi. I'm Cosmic Cat , by the way" the red-haired girl in a cat suit smiled warmly and waved her hand hello.

"Nice to see you there early, Cosmy."

"Says the one who's usually late" girl rolled her eyes at her friend.

Ladybug smiled sheepishly, shrugging slightly, as if saying 'You know I can't do anything about it'.

"Oh! Chat, I nearly forgot!" this words hurt him a bit, but he chose to ignore it. That's not what she meant. "Cosmy appeared here the next day you left, so we've been fighting akumas together. She has same powers as you do. I think you two will get along, she makes puns as terrible as yours" at that she winked at him and giggled, seeing his blush. He wanted to argue about his puns being very funny, and at the same time to flirt, since his Lady flirted with him. She flirted with him first.

He chose both. While small blush was covering his face, thank god for the mask it wasn't really visible, he managed to pout and said:

"Excuse you, but I think that my puns are purr-fect and they're always punny, besides... I know you love them, don't ya, Bugaboo?"

It made the bluenette to start giggling again. She didn't know what was with her, she never laughed at his puns before. Maybe, she just really missed him. Even though Cosmic Cat acted a lot like Chat, she couldn't replace him. No one could. At least, not for Ladybug.

"I told you to stop calling me that."

"When did I ever listen to you?"

As they were ready to continue their 'fight' they heard someone laughing, and instantly scooted away from each other, blushing.

"Guys, you're acting like a meow-ried couple. And as much as I like that, we still need paw-trol to do".

Chat couldn't stop himself from laughing, one thing, he didn't do in a while. Something about his laugh made Ladybug feel happier. Hearing his laugh, reminded her of someone else she knows, she just couldn't figure out who.

"Right", she said pulling out her yo-yo, "Chat, will you go with Cosmy? I think you two should have some time to talk?"

"Sure" they both nodded at her. Ladybug smiled back, and swing away, heading to the downtown.

The silence took over the two cats immediately. They shared a look, and took off from the Eiffel Tower, to their part of the city, running through it in a complete silence.

"So... uh... Why— How did you... know Ladybug needed help?"

"Fu told me". Seeing Chat's confused face she sighed and started explaining. "You see, there're a lot more miraculous holders like you two in different dimensions. I know, sounds crazy, but it's true. So Master Fu, or Great Guardian, send me a message through my version of Plagg, saying that I needed here, in Paris."

"Um... Okaaay. And you said there's a lot of miraculouses like mine, so why you?.. Not that there's something wrong with you, it's just..."

Cosmy laughed at him, feeling a lot easier around him mow, seeing him as nervous as she was.

"It seemed like we're the only one representative of Ladybug's and Chat Noir's miraculous, who took our villain down. It wasn't hard, though. He didn't have any superpowers or anything, just a really thoughtful mafia"

"Uh huh. Okay, one last question... Is your Plagg as annoying as mine?"

The girl laughed at him again, even though she was kinda expecting this question.

"Aw, don't say that. He's a cutie and eats some kind of cheese chips."

Chat Noir groaned in disbelief. Why was he so unlucky? Through all of the versions of Plagg, he managed to be stuck with the most annoying one, not to mention his love for Camembert.

But he still was happy to have at least that Plagg. It was for Plagg, that Adrien was able to be Chat Noir and escape his routine.

He knew he didn't need to say how he actually loved his kwami, cause he already knew. And Adrien didn't need to hear from little black creature that 'it' carried for him, cause he knew.

"Earth to the cat!" sudden voice pulled him out of his thoughts. Blonde model didn't even understand at first, who he was talking to.

"Sorry", she nodded slightly, as they made their way back to the meeting spot. When they reached there, the superhero in a black cat suit launched himself on the floor, resting his back on one of the railing. Ladybug approached them soon too.

"If we're finished for today, I think everyone should get back home, it's pretty late. Especially you, Chat" he looked her into eyes, filled with worry and concern. "You just came back and already into the action, not to mention all the information you probably filled with from Cosmy's story. Besides, there's school tomorrow."

Chat stood up coming closer to his Lady. He took her hand in his, and kissed the back of it.

"Thanks for the concern, M'Lady, but you should probably get home as well"

She blinked few times, not really ready for him to flirt already. Then she nodded her head, smiling a bit, and flew away into the night. Chat sighed dreamily. Oh, how beautiful she was. How he missed her and her presence, that always made him feel better. He thought about her warm smile, her pink lips and her amazing bluebell eyes. As another dreamy sigh escaped his mouth, a sarcastic voice, for the second time for today, called to him.

"So the cat's under lady's charm, huh?" Cosmy asked teasingly.

"Shut up"

~~~

Marinette threw herself onto her bad, sighing happily. She couldn't believe he finally was back. She couldn't believe she is so pleased about it. She couldn't believe she missed him, his flirting and his stupid puns that much. She rolled over on her side, closing her eyes. She soon drifted to a sleep with a smile and small blush on her face.
