It was late at night when Ladybug and Chat Noir finally defeated a quite tedious akumatized villian.  "Whew!" Chat Noir panted. "That akuma was a tough one!" He said, smiling, and wiped beads of sweat off his brow. He looked at Ladybug expectantly, waiting for her normal sassy reply. Instead, she just smiled blearily and said, "Yeah, I..I..." Ladybug started, and trailed off. Her eyes slid closed, and she leaned forward slightly. Chat Noir's face gained a worried expression. His cat ears, without his realization, swiveled in Ladybug's direction. Ladybug had taken the brunt of the attack. Had she gained a wound without his realization? His tail twitched with apprehension as the thought skittered through his mind like a mouse being chased by a cat. His senses automatically became sharper.  His heartbeat a frantically rising gallop, he fearfully scented the air. Chat Noir found no trace of blood, and he could hear her steady drum of her soft heartbeat. He calmed down with a sigh of relief. She had just drifted asleep. As he shifted closer to Ladybug, he reached out and caressed her blue-black hair off her mask with his clawed, black-leather encased hand, revealing her closed eyelids. She stirred, and her aquamarine eyes opened weakly.   Ladybug tried to brush his hand away, but he took hers and placed it under his on the black shingles of the roof. "Are you Ok, M' Lady?" Cat Noir asked, gently taking her hand in his. Ladybug yawned. "Yeah, I'm fine Chat." Ladybug murmured "I'm just,*yawn*really sleepy..." She began to doze off again, her head slipping onto Chat Noir's shoulder. He smiled as he watched her slide into unconsciousness. He could see her futile fight against her weariness was wearing her out even more.
