Marc's P.O.V: 

'....Huh?'

I drive a hand of mine to my head as my vision absolutely loves me at the moment. Note my sarcasm there. As my vision clears up by the second back to my reality all I can see is a normalized day of the Eiffel Tower in front of me. But... How? I thought I got akumatized during the fight with the akumas with Ladybug, Chat Noir and the others... But... then where's Nathaniel? 

Wait, where is Nathaniel!? 

Jolts of energy transfer into my legs as I force myself back up onto my feet. Scanning the area all around me as my green eyes can't help but look panicked. 

"N-Nathaniel..?!" 

My call gets no exact response, until after a few more seconds of silence. I hear a rustling by some bushes as my red head boy steps out and also holds his hands to his head. Relief rushes over me in an instant as I run over to the artist and quickly give him a tight hug. Nathaniel stumbling backwards slightly before he recollects himself. Looking up to me as he chuckles softly as his two arms snake around my waist. 

"Aww~ Did you worry about me like that much?" Nathaniel gently teases me as a blush of course needs to rise onto my cheeks. 

"O-Of course I-I did Nathaniel!" I exclaim to him in the form of a soft squeak as Nathaniel chuckles again softly to me. One of his arms unwraps itself away from my waist as I can feel his slightly warm hand brush along the strands of my black hair. More blush adds onto my face as his ocean blue eyes stare at me. 

"Well, I'm fine Marc. Don't worry." He assures in front of me as he gently stops brushing his fingers through my strands of black hair. Then him now teasing me more with a kiss to the cheek. Great, at this point my cheeks might as well be as red as a cherry. 

"T-That's good." I reply to Nathaniel softly as the red head in front of me retracts his arms away from my waist. Should I be concerned if I sorta want him to continue that hug on me for about at least another year longer? 

The artist in front of me then places his hands on his hips as he smiles to me some more just like the socially awkward person I am. Then Nathaniel's face cools down from the smiling as he then asks me softly, "So... do you remember anything of what... exactly happened?" 

Anything I can remember on what exactly happened? I both shake and nod my head to Nathaniel, "A-All I can really r-remember i-is me getting akumatized from the f-fight... y-you?" 

"Hmm... nothing much from me either." Nathaniel says to me gently as he strokes his own chin slightly with his palish thumb and index finger together. 

Nathaniel's P.O.V: 

Nothing much from me either? Can that sound anymore bland or effortless? I can literally remember so much from what exactly happened before the fact I too was akumatized by scarlet Hawkmoth. With however the hell that happened anyways. Marc being Spade Cobra and being akumatized... 

God can I even begin in how horrible that feels to my own eyes? 

"Uhh... N-Nathaniel?" Marc's voice asks me gently as I snap out of my sudden drown in thought as I turned back to reality in an instant. 

"Yeah?" 

"I-I just said that the day's g-getting late and... maybe we should be heading home..." 

"... R-Right." I reply awkwardly as I scratch the back of my head. 

"So... t-this is goodbye for today?" 

"S-Suppose so..." 

Another pause of silence drowns the both of us. Before then the sound of police sirens quickly ring about by the Eiffel Tower. Guess that's all to make up for extra damage that couldn't be fixed by the powers of Ladybug. Marc instantly beginning to walk off on his own as I am stuck in my own little spot. As then a hand grabs my wrist and then in a hard jerk pulls me back to the most deserted parts of the Eiffel Tower. Recollecting myself for a second as I then stare over my shoulders to see Ladybug right behind me. Her bluebell eyes staring right to me as she says softly. 

"Nathaniel... I am going to need to ask for the Dragon Miraculous back now... the mission is done, and you've done a great job helping me and Chat Noir out." She assured me warmly as she stuck her hand out to me. Mentally gesturing for me to return the miraculous. As Pyro flew out from my jacket as he looks to me with a small smile.

"It was fun while it lasted Nathaniel! Surely we'll just have to say 'see you later' then 'goodbye'!" 

I smile to my temporary Kwami as then I give him a nod saying 'true'. Reaching the back of my neck as I unhook the necklace and then hand the Dragon Miraculous to Ladybug. As she thankfully takes it as an instant I already can't see Pyro anywhere in sight. 

"Thanks Nathaniel, I'm sure someday you'll be able to fight with us again." Ladybug assures as she holds onto the miraculous in her curled up hand securely. Before quickly turning around and then leaping off as her own miraculous beeped about signalling time is running out. 

'...Though, I always wondered who Ladybug was...' 

Marc's P.O.V: 

A more tired sigh escapes me as my Kwami Spades peeked to me as he questions. 

"Seems like you two surely are becoming more and more caught up in other things then your own relationship right?" 

"W-Wait what...? Spades come on, t-that's not true! It's just.... handling three entirely different things in my life is g-getting harder and harder to handle at once and evenly." 

"Actually, you may want to make that four since there's that little comic project of yours you still need to work on with your boyfriend," Spades needlessly points out as I close my eyes for a second. This all can become a mental breakdown if something out of any of that goes wrong, "Uhh... but really, once your in the rhythm of things. It'll work out in no time." 

"And... how long is that supposed to be estimated to be?" 

"... A year or so, on average." 

"S-Spades, no offense, but that's not making me feeling much better." 

"Sorry." 

Still walking off through the streets of Paris back to my place. Hoping my mom is just fine from everything as others cheer victoriously at the success of the normal citizens helping defeat Hawkmoth for a change. Even without miraculouses of their own. Honestly, cheering like this never happens on a daily basis, so... i guess everyone's sorta guilty in being a little cocky in themselves. But can anyone really blame them? 

For being here in Paris for a long time, it's confusing on why everything feels like it's just stretching out more and more no matter how many steps I'm taking. Spades noting this as he squeaked a small, "Are you okay?" 

"... I guess my subconsciousness is messing with me a bit." I explain softly so no one can turn heads to me for just now talking to myself to seemingly nothing. 

"Subconsciousness? On what exactly?" 

"N-Not sure... but, we'll soon be back to my place so don't ponder on it." 

My kwami just nods as I scurry up to my apartment building and enter into the elevator and patiently wait for it to arrive to my floor. Once hitting my floor and opening up. I hurry to my apartment room and then use my house keys to enter inside. Spotting my mom inside by the couch as she started to cheer herself on the fact Parisian citizens such as herself actually got to help the heroes out on something.  

Heh, my typical cheery mom as usual. 

She soon stops for a second and turns her head to me as I shut the door behind me quietly. Before being tackled in a hug by her as she held me so tightly I can't even process to tell if I'm still breathing or not. 

"Marc! Oh my sweet baby! Are you okay?! You were out with Nathaniel when all of this came down from Hawkmoth! Are you and your boyfriend alright?!" She panicked as I smile to my mom gently and reassuringly. 

"M-Mom, I'm fine... and Nathaniel is too, so, no need to worry on me. I'm not a little kid anymore..." 

"I know, but your still always going to mean so much to me. I lost your father, and I'm not going to try and risk the same for you." 

"I-I know... dad..." I say now more softly in a muffle as my mom then lets go of me and I can actually breathe again, "I'm gonna go to my room now okay?" 

"Of course Marc honey, go ahead... I'll tell you when foods ready." 

Then quickly going to my room. I throw my bag off to the side as I flop down into my bed face down first into the blankets. As my Kwami flies out of my coat as he stared to me with his amber gem like eyes. 

"Your mom seems really nice." Spades replies to me as I slowly nodded. 

"Yeah, she doesn't really let bad things get to her... even when they were... horrible," I say back to my kwami as he then goes off to search for his stash of cheddar cheese I implanted in my own room. Nudging himself into my implanted stash. Spades pulls out some cheddar cheese and eats it delighted. Staring at my kwami and then outside my window. Having my face relax off a bit as then my eyes shut gently as I feel a small weight sit on top of my head as I chuckle a bit to Spades, that I can tell in an instant, "I know that's you, Spades." 

"You don't have ANY proof." 

"Yeah... surely I don't."
