  "Goodnight kitty." I said. He smiled then gave me a kiss. "Goodnight Purrincess, until tomorrow." Chat gave his two-finger salute before jumping away.  

Now:

I woke up the next morning and looked at the time. It was 7:35 so I hopped in the shower and then picked out an outfit. I pulled out a black crop top with a green paw over my heart, a black miniskirt with green and silver ribbons around the high waistband, a choker necklace with a small gold bell on it, and knee-high black leather boots.

"How do I look Tikki." I said, twisting and turning to make sure everything was in place. "Great Marinette!" My kwami said, smiling at me. I opened the purse and let her fly in before snapping it shut. 

"Bye maman, bye papa!" I said, grabbing a couple cookies and a croissant before running out the door. I dropped the cookies into the purse and took a bite of the warm pastry that was my breakfast. 

I walked up the steps of the school and went straight to the classroom. "Hey Alya, I have some news for you." I said as I slid into my seat next to her. "What is it? Oh, and you're killing the Chat Noir style girl." Alya said, looking anxious.

"Well, my friend agreed to meet you after school. And, umm, we're kinda dating." I said quietly, hoping she wouldn't freak. Alya looked at me with wide eyes and said: "Congrats girl, well at least now you won't have to be so nervous around Adrien." I sighed in relief and smiled.

"Oh, and don't kill me when you find out who it is. I have a strong feeling that you might so I am truly asking you do not." I said. She gave me a confused look but then nodded. "I won't, I promise."

-After School-

I walked to my house with Alya after school. "Hey mom, I'm gonna have Alya over for a bit." I said as I walked behind the bakery counter. "Okay sweetie, just make sure to get your homework done." Sabine said.

I smiled at my mom before we went upstairs and into my room. "Wow." I heard Alya say. I turned to her and tilted my head in confusion. "Not a single poster or magazine clipping of Adrien. You must be serious about this guy." she said.

"Yeah, I love him." I said, daydreaming about my kitty clad in leather. "I have never seen that look on your face. You're not kidding." Alya said, looking at me. I smiled then turned to my desk, pulling out my homework and setting it up for later.

"Um girl, how'd you get that bruise?" Alya said, pointing to just above my collarbone on the right side. I blushed as I remembered the mark Chat had left on me and his words last night, 'Now everyone will know you're mine, Princess.' "Marinette, you didn't. I don't want to be an Aunt at 16." Alya said, looking at me sternly. 

"W-what?! We didn't do anything last night except kiss Alya." I said, going red. I took a deep breath and sighed. "He will be here any minute so can you behave?" I said, looking at her through narrow eyes.

Alya threw up her hands in surrender and I rolled my eyes. Just as I was about to say something, we heard a tapping on the hatch to the balcony. Alya gave me a questioning look as I climbed up the ladder to open the hatch up for Chat.

I climbed back down and Chat jumped into the room, landing almost silently on the floor of the room. He walked up to me and pulled me in for a kiss. I wrapped my arms around his neck and tilted my head slightly to deepen the kiss before pulling back. 

"Hey, mon minou." I said, bopping his nose. "Hello Purrincess." Chat said, flashing a Cheshire smile. I giggled at his lame pun and then remembered that Alya was there. I looked over to see my best friend look at us with a mix of shock, anger, and absolute happiness spread on her face.

"Surprise?" I said nervously. That apparently broke her from her daze because she started yelling. "WHAT?! So my best friend is friends with Chat Noir and she doesn't bother to tell me and then you're dating a SUPERHERO!!! You are so dead!" Alya yelled. 

I let out a terrified squeak and hid behind Chat, knowing that she can be more dangerous than some of the Akumas that we have fought. "You promised that you wouldn't kill me so no, I'm not dead. If you kill me, then you have a superhero to answer to and I don't think that's a good idea. This cat is very protective." I say, still shaking behind Chat.

Chat looks at me with worry and concern. I look at Alya and see that she's calmed down so I come out from behind him and he wraps his arms around my waist, tucking his head on my shoulder. "I'm sorry for freaking out so bad. I guess I just wasn't expecting it to be Chat Noir, one of the superheroes of Paris." Alya said.

I lightly pulled myself out of Chat's hold and walked over to her, giving her a hug. "It's okay Alya, I understand. I would have been just as surprised if I was you." I smiled at her and she smiled back. "So, since I'm here, would you like to schedule an interview with me?" Chat said, coming up behind me and wrapping me in a hug again.

"Sure! How about this Saturday in the park at 1:30?" Alya said, pulling out her phone. "Sure, I'm not busy then so that should work." Chat said. Alya scheduled it into her phone then went home.

"Well, that went better than I expected." I said, relieved that nothing too bad happened. I looked up at Chat and smiled. "Did I forget to tell you that you look absolutely purrfect in that outfit Princess?" Chat said cheekily. I giggled and said, "Did I forget to tell you that you look sexy in black?" 

Chat turned red and I laughed. "Bold one aren't we princess? Well, I think you are absolutely irresistible in that outfit." Chat whispered the last part in my ear. I blushed a deep pink and bit my lip to hold back a shudder.

He traced a finger down the center of my spine to the small of my back and rubbed circles. I shivered in delight and looked into his emerald eyes. He was wearing his classic Chat Noir smirk and I got warry. 

"What do you have up your sleeve Chat?" I said, narrowing my eyes at him. "Oh, I don't know, maybe visiting my purrincess during lunch tomorrow."He said with laughter in his eyes. I shoved him lightly and shoot him a glare. 

"What, I can't visit my girlfriend during lunch?" Chat said with a sly smile. "Sure Kitty, if you're willing to get a massive ridiculing by Chloe." I shoot at him, upset that he would consider doing something that could hurt him.

"Oh, princess, I don't care what Chloe says. As long as I have you, I don't need anyone else in the world to like me." Chat said, wrapping me in a hug. I sighed into his embrace and hugged him back. "As long as you don't get hurt, I don't care." I said quietly.
