"Marinette will you be my girlfriend?" Cat asks.

    "Sure, I thought you would never ask me out," Marinette says.

    Cat Noir takes Marinette on a date. He smiles.  "Marinette I am glad you are my girlfriend." He says.

   "I am glad you are my boyfriend," Marinette says.

   "You are my first boyfriend ever, " Marinette tells him.

    "You are the second girlfriend I have had, but the only one who counts," Cat Noir says.

         Marinette frowns. She thinks he was with someone else before me. 

      Chat sees her sad look.  He believes he knows it too well. It is a look of disappointment.  He thinks she is upset with me.

     "Princess, do not be upset. " Cat Noir says.

     Marinette smiles. She is happy to be with him. She never thought she would see the day she went on a date with Cat Noir.

      A  few months later, Cat Noir and Marinette are on another date. They have been together for six months now.   

    "Marinette, I love you!"  Cat Noir says.

     "Cat, you are cute.  I like you."  She says.

    "I get it you only agreed to date me out of pity for me.  You do not love me." Cat says sadly.

   "Kitty, do not be sad,"  Marinette says.

   "I am sorry, Marinette.  I have to go." Cat says. He leaves.

    Marinette watches him go. She thinks, the silly cat I do care for you.

   The next day, Alya comes to see Marinette. 

 "Marinette, what is this I hear about you and Cat Noir?"  Alya asks.

"He is my boyfriend,"  Marinette says.

   "What you are Cat Noir's girlfriend?"  Alya asks.

   "Yes, we have been dating for six months," Marinette says

   "Wow, that is good. I am happy for you, girl."  Alya tells her.

    "Cat told me he loved me last night," Marinette says.

   "Do you love him back?"  Alya asks.

   "Maybe," Marinette says.

   "Maybe, girl?  "  Alya remarks.

  "Fine, I love him too, but I have not told him yet,"  Marinette says.

   "Well, you better tell him soon,"  Alya says.

  Alya leaves to go home.  Cat Noir comes to visit his girlfriend next.

    "Hi, Marinette!" Cat says sadly.

    "Hi, Cat!" Marinette says.

    "Why so glum?" She asks.

     "Who is he?" Cat asks.

   "He, what do you mean?"  Marinette asks.

    "I mean who is he that keeps you from loving me," Cat says.

     "Cat, I..." Marinette says.

     "Marinette, I love you!  I want this to work." He says.

      "Cat, I love you!"  Marinette blurts out.

       "Marinette, do you mean it?" Cat Noir asks.

       "Yes, silly cat."  Marinette answers.

   Cat Noir grins happily as ever.  He debates within himself rather too show Marinette who is hidden behind his mask or not.
