Marinette

"God it's freezing out here!" I exclaim loudly, following Chats back through the alley way. His chuckles crackle through the night as I pout.

The cold air went through my clothing with ease. It was a thick sweatshirt, yet it felt as if I wasn't wearing it at all. I just wanted to go someplace warm.

"We're almost there my lady, be patient" He whispers, turning his head to give me a wink. I rub my hands together for warmth.

"Can you stop with the whole 'My lady' thing, I'm not a fucking princess–"

I run into Chats back with a smack and I'm about to yell at him before I notice he's stopped in front of a ladder.

The ladder led up to the roof of the building, which was extremely high up. When he starts to climb up it, I stay planted on the ground.  He notices and stops.

"What? Your afraid of heights?" He questions innocently. But I already knew that deep inside, he was getting a laugh out of this.

"Didn't curiosity kill the cat?" Crossing my arms, I stare him down, letting him know I wasn't moving an inch. He jumps down from the ladder.

"Yeah but satisfaction brought it back" He fires back, getting close enough for me to see the details in his eyes. Even in the dark, I could see that he had freckles, light dotes that shattered his cheeks.

He extends his hand carefully towards me. The smile on his face was goofy yet sincere. And out of stupidity, I take it.

A part of me trusted Chat.

Smile widening, he pulls me to him quickly, Our chest press together tightly and I gasp as he kneels and wraps his arm under my knees.

He hoist me up and before I could protest, I'm in his arms. He starts to climb the ladder. I could tell he was having trouble getting a good grip because his arms were occupied so in order not to fall, I gripped onto him tightly.

" I could've climbed up myself" I grumbled as we finally make it to the top of the building. He lets me go so I could safely step onto the roof and I breathe a sigh of relief.  I walk to the edge.

Below me, lights flickered and cars honked. The whole city of Paris was in full view and for all the years I've lived here, I forgot how beautiful it was. Chat stands beside me, gazing at the city with me.

"Isn't it amazing?" He asks, looking at me. His eyes sparkled.

"Of course it is. It's Paris"

He laughs loudly. "Don't be so hard headed my lady. Admit it"

I sigh, shaking my head and smiling.

"Yeah. Ok. It's pretty amazing" I admit.

He slings his arm over my shoulder and grins cockily. "Stick with me Bugaboo. Everything's amazing in the life of Chat Noir!"

I laugh out loud.

"Was that loss amazing?" I snicker, referencing to our battle last Thursday. He gasp loudly and backs away from me, causing me to laugh more.
