Description Marinette Dupain-Cheng is angry with her boyfriend, Chat Noir.  He has not stopped by in weeks.  What is with the strange package with cucumbers inside?

Marinette's POV:

  I  try to contact him.

 The line is busy.

I attempt to text no signal.

Email, my computer says the internet is out.

Ah!  How much longer am I expected to sit here while he ignores me?

 Why hasn't he called or visited me?

  Is he upset with me?

I  get a package. 

I open it to find cucumbers.

Strange, why would he send me cucumbers?

Chat Noir knows I hate them.

Yet, there are four long, very ripe cucumbers before my eyes.

 What could it all mean?

Is he planning to dump me?

Did a farmer kidnap him? 

What was with him lately?

I  struggle to understand his being distant.

What have I done wrong?

Chat Noir, I call out.

I  do not expect him to answer.

I see someone land with a thud on my rooftop.

 Who could it be?

Is it Chat?

No, it is a man in combat boots, jeans, a green tank top, and a cape.

Strange, I do not think I ever met this person before, and what do they have to do with Chat?

"Are you Miss Dupain-Cheng?"

"Yes, but why do you need to know?"

"Chat Noir has spoken highly of you."

"What have you done with him?"

"Whoa, little lady, do not get your knickers in a pinch."

"My boss happens to have him."

"Who is your boss?"

"He is only the greatest supervillain of all time.  He is Hawkmoth."

  I shudder at the thought that "The Papillion" has Chat.

 I  stick a finger out.

"Tell, Hawkmoth if he does not return Chat Noir in the prime condition, he has a bone to pick with me."

"Such courage, and  bravery, must come from none other than the great opponent ladybug."

I gasp.  

I could use this to my advantage.

"Ladybug and I are the best of friends."

"Let me go get her."

I wink at him.

I hide inside a closet, "Tikki, spots on, yeah!"

I reappear as Ladybug.

"Now, take me to your master."

  "Sure thing, Miss Ladybug."

I roll my eyes. 

I  follow him into what I assume is Hawkmoth's lair.

Once inside, I see akumas everywhere.  It is the right place.

   In one corner, I see Chat Noir.

I gasp in horror.

What has Hawkmoth done to him?

Chat Noir has a bloody lip, a cracked chin, and multiple bruises.  He is in bad shape.

   As Ladybug I am angrier than I was as Marinette. How dare Hawkmoth take advantage of a poor defenseless cat?

     I  charge towards Hawkmoth.

  I stare at the decoy as it crumbles in half.

  I  remove the real one.

"I win, so give up!"

"Not so fast, Ladybug.  You return the miraculous, or I end Chat's worthless life."

  I knew it was a trick.

I called his bluff. 

Without his miraculous, he was powerless.

I  exit the place with Chat Noir on my tail.

Soon, we arrive at my place.

I detransform since Chat already knows my identity.

I told him years ago because I felt it would be wrong to lie to my boyfriend.

"Chat is not the time I found out?"

   " What is with the cucumbers?"

    I see him grimace.

  "It was a clue."

"Yes,  princess, and bugaboo."

     I smile at him.

    I watch as he kisses me.

  I can tell he worries that I will not love him the same after today.

   I laugh.           

"I am sure I will love whoever you are behind the mask Chanton."

  "Plagg claws in!"

I watch as the green light surrounds him, then clears away.

  "A-Adrien Agreste, it is you!"

   I am so happy. At last, I found my  Chat is also my Adrien.

  "So you approve?"

"Yes, a thousand times, yes!  I love you both as Chat and as Adrien."

   "Good, cause I love you too, Marinette, my ladybug."

     the end

 Until the next one-shot story,

 Summer out!
