The cool night breeze hit your face, drying the tears that fell along the way back to your home.

Already in front of the door you took the spare key from under the carpet, when you unlocked the door you heard a familiar voice call you.

"Felix?" You turned around, he was no longer transformed and was wearing his casual clothes.  You were so lost in your restless thoughts that you hadn't even noticed that the red moon had disappeared and the people had returned.

You quickly grabbed his wrist and pulled him into the house, closing the door behind you.

"Don't worry Felix! I won't let anyone arrest you!" You assured him seriously, taking of him a slight smile but soon his eyes had a flash of sadness.

"I didn't come here to hide shortie. I just wanted to apologize, I swear I didn't want you two to fight, I-" You cut him off.

"You weren't to blame for anything.  Quite the contrary, a few hours without Monarch was all I needed most. I managed to get everything out that was trapped inside me, without being afraid of..." Chat Blanc came into your mind  and you shook your head trying to shake off this nightmare.

"-I don't know how to thank you." You said with sincere gratitude, giving him a tight hug. His eyes blinked in perplexity as he slowly hugged you back.

"Thank you for standing by my side even though I was wrong. That was quite unexpected." His cheeks heated up a little. You patted his back before walking away.

"After everything you've done for me, it's the least I could do. Now enough of all this drama, how about you introduce me to your kwami?" You suggested curiously.

Soon a small blue peacock came out from behind him and surrounded you with an excited smile.

"Hello (Y/n)! I'm Duusu! It's so good to finally be able to talk to you!  It's so good to be free!" She said with so much excitement but suddenly she levitated with her little arms lowered in sadness.

"Too bad it wasn't possible to free Nooru and the others too..."  You imagined she was talking about the other kwamis. Then an idea came into your mind to cheer her up.

"I'm sorry about your friends... I have a kwami ​​friend too, he must be upstairs sleeping.  How about you go wake him up? You can sleep here today and then we'll cook something delicious to keep the sadness away." Her eyes sparkled with joy then she looked at Felix as if asking for permission.

"You can do whatever you want Duusu." He shrugged. She squealed excitedly and floated upstairs.

You smiled and followed her with the intention of going to your room to change your clothes. After all, you also needed to keep the sadness away.

"(Y/n), There's something about Adrien that I need to tell you..." Felix said, following behind you until he was next to you. You closed your eyes for a second, breathing deeply to stay calm as you responded.

"Oh no, don't talk about him, I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore. He's made it very clear what he thinks about me." You pushed your bedroom door a little hard as you entered in.

"I agree he was such a shitty mug talking to you that way... But he wasn't truly mad at you, he was mad at me. He had been staring at me strangely for days but I didn't mind it." He stood by the door while you looked for your most comfortable pajamas in your drawer.

Being in your room brought back many happy memories with Chat Noir, the two of you talking naively happy on your balcony, not knowing what you were getting yourself into.

Your eyes became blurry ready to shed more tears, you gritted your teeth in anger instead.

What was all of it for?

My parents were right... It's easy to be enchanted by first impressions.

"Why are you on his side now? So you've always despised the way he doesn't know how to stand up against his father. I don't know where that clueless got that stupid idea we had sex." You replied coldly after finding your pajamas, threw them on the bed and stand in front of him, raising an eyebrow with your arms crossed, giving him your full attention.

"He must have seen us kissing. Don't be so hard on him, he loves you very much and he really can't-" you cut him off angrily.

"No need to keep reminding me, okay?  I know I know I was wrong too. You're doing it again Felix, please don't play a cupid again. He and me are no longer in sync." Your voice cracked, the way Adrien spoke to you hadn't yet sunk in.  Felix sighed, frustrated with himself for not being able to find the right words to say to you.

So you smiled distressedly and said, trying to sound as relaxed as possible.

"Let's just cool down now, don't you think?" You spoke as you reach for the zipper on the back of your dress. You smiled mischievously as you began to slowly take off your top giving a glimpse of your bra. He goggles for a few seconds before quickly turning his back to you with red cheeks.

"For God's sake, (Y/n)! I'm trying to tell you something very important here. I swear I'm not playing cupid. Will you please take it seriously?" He said ashamed with his back to you, you couldn't help but giggle as you changed your clothes.

"Ughh okay... You can look now, I'm all ears." You rolled your eyes, wondering what kind of excuse he'd give for Adrien being such an asshole.

...

You always believed that there was a very serious reason for Felix to have done what he did for the peacock Miraculous, but it would never cross your mind that his and Adrien's lives were linked to this Miraculous.

He showed you the ring he stole from his uncle, and explained that without it his life would still be in his hands, just like Adrien's life is now.

You felt bad imagining what he had to go through, living in fear every day of simply ceasing to exist. It was heartbreaking. In his place you would have done the same thing.

All you could do was give him a comforting hug.

"Don't get sad about it. It happened in the same time that I met you, our dispute kept my mind very busy.  If you give me another hug today I'll think it's an excuse to be closer to me." You punched him in the arm before moving away sulking.

You glanced around your room and you weren't so upset with Adrien anymore, but being here made you feel sad, just now that you were starting to feel better this disagreement between the two of you happened.

"Let's see what the kwamis are doing." You grabbed his hand dragging him out of your room.

You two find them in your parents' room. Luppus was floating away from her as she chased after him with a giggle.

"Help me (Y/n)! This agitated kwami ​​won't let me sleep with these incessant questions." He said desperately making you laugh.

"You sleep too much Luppus. Now let's cook something for us to eat. What do you like Duusu?" You asked as you looked for some of your father's pajamas in the drawer.

"Cookies! I love cookies!" She stopped to answer but then went back to chasing Luppus.

"Let's make cookies then." You walked over to Felix and placed a pair of your father's pajamas in his hands.

"To sleep here, you should be more comfortable with it." You said teasingly, unfastening his tie from outside his vest.

He didn't question, he just obeyed with a seductive smile, unbuttoning the buttons on his vest while penetrating you with those malicious green eyes.

You looked away containing a shy smile as you walked out the door calling the kwamis with you.

✷✷✷

In the kitchen you placed the ingredients to make the cookies on the table, you seemed fine on the outside, but your mind didn't stop thinking for a minute about the things that happened and that you discovered. Even with the loudly talking kwamis floating here and there, you could only hear your own thoughts.

What if he's right about me?

You were very tense and couldn't focus on the rest of the ingredients you needed to get as you opened the cupboards. Until you saw a bottle of wine that caught your eye.

A few sips of this will definitely make me relax.

You smiled as you filled two glasses of the drink.

"What drink is this? Can I try it?" Duusu stopped chasing Luppus and asked as you took a sip.

"I don't think you'll like the taste of this Duusu. Try this other one." You put grape juice in the glass that you had in the fridge for her.

"Finally some peace..." Luppus leaned on your shoulder as if he had just finished running a marathon.

After a short time, Felix appeared wearing your father's pajamas, to help you with the cookies. He noticed the wine glass you filled for him

"Are you sure you should be drinking this right now shortie?" He picked up the glass

"What's the problem anyway?" You asked after taking another sip and slowly feeling your thoughts slow down and become less agitated about your concerns.

"No problem for me, but when you drink you get a fully urge to kiss me.  This could be a problem for you." He mocked making you look at him in disbelief with your cheeks burning.

"Oh bite me!! Gimme a break of your cocky ass!" You tried to take the bottle out of his hands, but he placed it higher. Luppus floated off your shoulder, watching curiously.

"I've never seen humans getting along while fighting, you have a strange relationship, but it works." The wolf reflected aloud. You stopped for a moment, his words made your mind wander to the moment when you and Adrien were fighting.

Your eyes immediately lost their shine.

"I think Adrien is right Felix. I kissed you as soon as he broke up with me, he had no choice but I did." You put your head down on the kitchen table feeling like the worst person.

"You were very drunk. I'm sure you wouldn't have kissed me if it weren't for that, don't worry, you two will sort it out." He filled your glass with more wine and left the bottle on the table, patting you comfortingly on the back.

You were indeed drunk that day, but the drink only gave you the guts to do what you already wanted to do.

You smiled as you watched Felix talk to the Kwamis and start preparing the cookies by placing the ingredients in the bowl, he seemed to know what he was doing.

I'm attracted to Felix, it wasn't just because I was drunk.

I feel torn, and that's not fair to Adrien, I shouldn't feel like this... He was right about me.

Again tears began to come out of your eyes with no intention of stopping. You stay silent just trying to clean it with your hands but they don't stop falling.

"Did I say something wrong? I'm really sorry, I'm terrible at comforting." He tries to get closer but stops before reaching you, half closing his eyes, angry at himself for not knowing what to do.

You pulled him close in a hug and buried your face in his chest.

"You're just perfect. Drinking that day only covered up what I already wanted to do. Things are simple with you. You're so fucking authentic with yourself, don't caring about what they gonna say." You confessed with a sad smile and pulled away to look into his eyes that were shining with excitement but not knowing what to say.

Then you continue. "I'm tired of repressing what I feel, which is why part of what Adrien said is right.  I'm not going to lie... I like him but at the same time I'm also attracted to you. I don't want to drag you into my never-ending drama so I'll understand if you want to stay away from me, it's the best thing to do." You lowered your head. He grabbed your chin making you look back at him.

"I won't judge you for being confused, first and foremost I'm your friend. No matter what you choose in the end, I will always support you... I confess that you caught me by surprise though." He looked at you suggestively, touching the corner of your lips with his thumb.

"I'll be what you want me to be for you. You just have to ask me...” He had a seductive smile as he looked at you like you were a treasure. You blushed, that's not the kind of reaction you expected after telling a guy that you like him and another guy.

Fuck... What the fuck do I do now??
