Chapter 24 - The Question
The update is here! Although I am going to update this story a lot in the next 24 hours until it's finished, I can still torture yo- I MEAN entertain you with the plot. Enjoy!
The last day of the month (B/c I know ya'll can't wait longer.)
Ladybug's POV
"And now, Ladybug will say a few words."
I walked up the stage as I saw many people out there, waving at me. I walked up to the podium where Chloe was standing. Chat Noir hadn't shown up yet, I didn't know if he was coming. The dress I made was breathable, but I felt uncomfortable without him by me. I took a deep breath and began to speak into the microphone.
"Hello. Now you guys might be expecting some amazing speech, but really, I have a bit stage fright strangely enough." The crowd laughed and it boosted my confidence. "I want to thank all of you guys for supporting us, bringing us in when we needed help, and cheering us on. A special shout out to some people who mean a little more to me, starting with the Ladyblogger herself." I look straight at Alya, who was almost freaking out in excitement as a spotlight went to her. I continued speaking.
"Alya is a caring person, who would always give me confidence, toward my civilian and superhero identities. Mind you, she was a bit nosy trying to find out my identity, but she is the sweetest, little angel I know." Alya almost began crying in joy as I smiled and went on to the next person.
"Nino was a very cool guy, who always tried putting his friends needs before his. He can lighten the mood when it was dark, I would consider him as a big brother to me." Nino began getting teary-eyed as well, clearly happy for what I said and I continued on.
"Another person I misjudged was Chloe. She only wanted to be cared for, to have someone be by her side. I at times know how that feels, to be lonely and un-included. Which is why I am glad she has decided to try and fix everything by hosting this ball. I give all of my thanks to Chloe and am glad to be a friend for her if she needs one." Chloe was over on the side of the stage, smiling and dabbing her eyes with a cloth, trying not to ruin her makeup, but she was so happy.
"Adrien was someone I misjudged as well. And it turns out that he was the exact opposite of what I thought he was. Even though he said he couldn't make it tonight, I am very glad for all his gestures of kindness, even when it was hardest." I took a deep breath, trying to calm down from the stage fright. Then I thought of how to fix it, by thinking of a certain kitty.
"You guys may be familiar with the most impactful person on my life. I used to see him as just a friend, but soon, that turned into something more. Casual hellos became daily visits. I realized after a while how much he actually meant to me. How much he has watched over me. How much he has cared for me. The luckiest thing that ever happened to me was meeting Paris' black cat, Chat Noir." I heard a similar sound of metal extending and shrinking beside me. I looked over and saw Chat in the suit I made him as he smiled towards me.
"Well, what pur-ecious words those were. I'm sure he feels the same way M'lady."
Another time skip cause I'm lazy
Chat Noir's POV
I stood by Ladybug, holding her hand, as the press asked us questions. Ladybug answered most of them, but occasionally I would give in my opinion, getting a laugh from the paparazzi and a groan from Ladybug. I looked over at Chloe, hoping she would get my signal for help. She saw me then rushed straight over.
"Questions after, a really good song is coming on!"
I inwardly sighed in relief as I held my arm out to Ladybug. She took it with a smile and we began walk over to where people were dancing. The clouds were low tonight, so I had an idea.
"M'lady? How would you like to dance in a more romantic atmosphere?"
She rolled her eyes. "Where exactly were you thinking of?"
"It's a secret!" I picked her up bridal style and vaulted up to the highest level possible on the Eiffel Tower. I set her down as she admired the view. The clouds were just at our feet, with the moon shining brightly. 'Pur-fect!'
Ladybug's POV
Chat finally set me down and the sight is beautiful. The moon is shining and the clouds are at our feet. I could hear a dance come on and Chat held out his hand toward me as he bowed. "May I have this dance M'lady?"
I giggled. "Of course Kitty!"
I curtesy as Chat walks up to begin the dance. I close my eyes as we dance, putting my trust in him as he spins me and guides me. I can feel his hands as he at times, strokes my face with the back of his hand. It feels warm and comforting without the leather.As the song nears the end, he speaks out. "Why are you closing your eyes?"
I open them. "I'm enjoying the moment. Wow! Look over there Chat!" I look around and the clouds have holes in spots, giving off light from below. Chat questions me as I continue looking out.
"What are you doing bugaboo?"
"I'm admiring the view."
"M'lady you should look at the view more carefully."
I turn around, see Chat on one knee, a box in his hands and gasp. He smirks and begins talking.
"Marinette, you have made your way into my life. I fell for you as you saved Paris the first time, I begin falling for you again when you try protecting me. And even though I never knew who was under the mask before, both sides of you were just as pur-fect. The only thing that ever changed was the outfits. I'm a smitten kitten and I fell for you hard, hoping you would catch me." I begin to get tears in my eyes as he opened the small box in front of me.
"M'lady, Will you Mari me?
The tears begin to escape my eyes as I hold out my hand to him.
"Let's see, shall we Kitty?"
He grasps my hand and slips the ring on my finger. I look at it and see the intricate detail on it. It was a diamond with a yin-yan. Black and red, cat and ladybug.
Hey! You can't see the words in the ring yet!
I look back at him, fall down to his level, and kiss him. It was passionate, both of us wanting to stay together and never loose another. He ran his bare hands through my hair, as I wrapped my arms around his waist. I could feel his tail trying to hold us together around our legs. We were desperate for one another, holding on, afraid to let go and leave each others embraces. Finally, I pulled away, me and Chat needing air. Chat leaned his head down on mine while breathing heavily. I spoke first, wanting to say it so badly.
"I love you Chat Noir."
"I love me too!"
I groaned as he laughed and spoke again. "I love you too Marinette."
"Should we tell everyone yet?"
"It's up to you M'lady. Marry you in 2 years?
"Yes to both."
Chat lifts his head with a smile of pure happiness that I rarely ever see. Then he takes out his baton from the side of his suit as I take out my yo-yo from the cleverly hidden pockets in my dress. I swing down with Chat in a close follow, landing on the stage. I walk up to the microphone with Chat holding my hand.
"Everyone! I have an important announcement to make."
I watch as all the heads and news cameras turn over to where me and Chat were standing. I look up at him and he looks and nods at me with an encouraging smile. I look out among the people and raise my finger with the ring.I can hear the cheers and see the looks of excitement. Chat grabbed me and pulled me into a kiss, and I accept it. It was short and sweet, but enough to satisfy the moment.
When he pulled away, I looked deep into his sweet, vibrant, green eyes. He smiled at me and I returned it with a slight blush and gentle, shy smile. 'I never want to leave his side ever again...'
Halp. I grinned way to much writing this chapter. But it gets better, sooo just be prepared for anything...
