Chat Noir POV

"You don't deserve her. She belongs with me!" he screamed.

I dodged another razor sharp frisbee and threw my baton, which scored a hit.

This was no good, I needed him to charge at me so I could break the lights.

Suddenly I knew what I had to do.

"Oh the things you don't know!" I jeered, dodging another attack.

"What do you mean?" his pen stopped sketching.

"Marinette and I are already a couple." I mocked.

"No.... Your lying..." he seemed unsure.

"In fact, last night we were smooching under the stars. You wouldn't believe how sweet her lips are..." this was so good, I could imagine it myself...

"AAARRGHHHHH!!!!!"

He ran right at me, as if he hoped he could beat me himself. I flipped off of his shoulders and threw my batons which broke the lights. We plunged into darkness.

I kicked Evillustrator's feet out from under him. He crashed to the ground. I took his dropped pencil before he could get it and ran. I ducked into an alley and broke it. A single akuma fluttered out but I was prepared. I took out a glass jar and closed it around the insect.

A job well done.

I smiled at the insect. It was trying to get out, stupid little thing. You're trapped. No way can you...

It went through the glass like a kwami would.

Oh COME ON...

Unsure of what to do, I did the only thing I could think of.

"Cataclysm!!"

I closed my fist around the bug, wild energy zapping around my hand. I brought it close to my chest and there was a huge burst of energy.

I opened my hand, the akuma was gone.

Huh, I guess I can get rid of akumas after all.

I looked at my open palm for a second. Did I destroy it completely? Or did I just send it back to Hawk Moth somehow?

"Plagg, claws off."

I detransformed and Plagg came tumbling out of my ring.

"Oh boy. I'm exhausted."

"Here's a piece of cheese. You can go to sleep if you want. I think I'm going to take a stroll."

"Fine with me." Plagg said, stuffing the cheese in his mouth.

He flew into my jacket and I walked out of the alley towards my house. I needed to think.

I know that I'm in love with Ladybug... but what is Marinette to me? She is obviously more than a friend... but I don't think I'm crushing on her...

Could she just be a good friend? Or... could she be a best friend?

Yeah. A best friend.

I have a best friend as Adrien, but when I'm Adrien I have to be watched and am not free to be myself. So a best friend as Chat would probably feel more special because she actually appreciates me for being me.

Right?

I looked up into the night sky, thinking of two different girl's eyes. How they both matched the sparkling midnight stars...

Is it possible to like two people at once?

Oh, how things would be easier if they were just the same person...
