《The Gift: A Miraculous Fanfiction》The Mix-Up

Chat Noir leaned in and pressed his lips into Marinette's. She immediately melted into the kiss, putting her hands to his hair. He kept one hand on her face and wrapped his other hand around her waist, pulling her closer.

After a few seconds they separated, both breathing heavily. They stayed together, looking at each other for a moment. She reminded him so much of Ladybug, it was incredible. He needed more of her, so he leaned back in.

Chat Noir moved his kisses along Marinette's jaw and made his way to her neck. She gasped and tightened her grip on his blond locks. He shifted his hands around her, trying to grab every part of her that he could reach.

"I love you Ladybug," he whispered, continuing to kiss up and down her neck.

Marinette froze. For a split second she panicked, thinking that he had figured out her secret. But then she realized that something else was going on.

She lowered her hands and pushed his shoulders back.

He looked at her. "What's wrong?" he asked, out of breath.

"What did you just say?" she whispered.

Chat Noir smiled. "I said that I love you," he replied, trying to move in again to kiss her.

She pushed him back. "You said 'I love you Ladybug.'"

His eyes went wide as he realized that she was right. "I, uh... I'm sorry! That was a mistake. I meant that I love you Marinette," he sputtered out.

She stared at him, tears welling up in her eyes. "You're still in love with her."

"No," he objected quickly, shaking his head. "Not anymore. I'm in love with you now. You just remind me of her, that's all. Your beautiful blue eyes, they look so much like hers. I'm so sorry, it was a mistake, I swear."

She pulled away from his grasp. "She was the one you were talking about in the car on the way home from the wax museum. You weren't interested in me, you only wanted her." A tear fell down her cheek.

"Marinette, I don't want to be with her anymore. She rejected me," he said, trying to pull her towards him again.

She shook him off. "So what does that make me? Your back-up plan? Ladybug doesn't want to be with you so you're settling for me instead?"

"No, that's not what I meant. Please Marinette, just let me explain," he pleaded.

"You never even looked at me before. You only started paying attention to me after I told you about my crush. That's when you started coming here as Chat Noir," she said as the tears kept falling. "You came over and made me fall in love with you all over again."

Chat Noir couldn't breathe. She had already fallen in love with him again, but this time when he was his superhero alter-ego.

Marinette paused for a moment but then continued. "Why did you let me say all of those things to you? You tricked me into telling you all that personal information. The umbrella story. My favorite picture of you. Why would you do that to me?" she finished with a whisper.

He was horrified. He had never intended for any of that to happen. "I... I..." he stuttered before Marinette interrupted him.

"I think you should leave. Please don't come back here anymore." She turned towards the hatch.

Chat Noir reached out and grabbed her hand before she could walk away, spinning her back around. "Please don't go," he said, his eyes full of tears. "I'm so sorry Princess, I never meant to hurt you."

She looked up at him through the tears. "I'm not your Princess," she whispered, pulling her hand away and climbing through the hatch, closing it behind her.

He stood there staring at the spot where Marinette had disappeared. It felt like the world was crashing in around him. Just minutes ago he was kissing the girl of his dreams. And now she wanted nothing to do with him. This couldn't be happening, this couldn't be the end.

"Marinette," he whispered to the night air. Why had he called her 'Ladybug'? He knew that he was in love with Marinette, but did Ladybug still have a piece of his heart? Is it possible to be in love with two people at the same time?

No, he didn't love Ladybug, not anymore. He had fallen in love with her the first day they met. Without knowing who she was, he fell hard and fast.

But with Marinette, it was different. He had fallen in love with her slowly, knowing exactly who she was. She was real, and complicated, and wonderful, and he loved every part of her.

There was no comparing the two. Marinette won, hands down.

He rushed over to the hatch and tried to pull it open. It was locked. "Marinette!" he called out, banging on it. There was no answer. "Marinette, I'm going to wait right here until you're ready to talk, okay? I love you so much."

Still no response. Chat Noir sat down next to the hatch and leaned his back against the brick wall. How did everything go so wrong so fast?

He stayed there, eventually closing his eyes as time went by. At one point he heard Marinette crying. He leaned over and knocked on the hatch. "I'm still here. Please let me in," he begged. The crying was stifled. He sat back against the wall and wiped his eyes.
