"Face it, she's nothing."

"Your worth more than what Paris treats you as."

"Just get rid of her, that will solve your problem."

"You've thought of it, just do it already."

"Get rid of her."

~~~

Adrien would get haunting dreams every now and then at night, telling him to get rid of her. Why? Why was his mind torturing him with these haunting dreams? Was his conscience telling him something?

If... If he did 'get rid of her' would he stop the dreams? Would he stop second guessing himself every time he would see her?

Adrien sat in bed, questioning that thought. Was he capable of getting rid of her?

Even if, how would he?

Sure enough, a plan would come his way soon.

"Why?"

"Why what?" Tikki asked in reply to Marinette's question as she sat her computer.

"Why did he leave them on the roof once he left?"

"Maybe so you would take them and return them." Which she did do after.

"But why did he?"

"Maybe he's conflicted."

"About what though?"

"Multiple things most likely. You and him did get pretty close to-"

"Tikki!" Marinette stopped her before she could finish.

"I'm just saying." The kwami giggled. "It could happen."

"No it can't." She thought about the possibilities. "Imagine the news, that would be a whole lot of drama."

"What do you expect? You're a hero! Everyone is interested in their life! Even their real identities, wanting to know who the heroic people are who save the city are."

Marinette hadn't thought about who Chat was under the mask for a long time. Not after he became an antihero.

"Why not get to know each other more... purr-sonally?" Chat cooed to Ladybug. "Without revealing identities of course."

"Okay." Ladybug agreed.

"What do you like to do out of the mask?"

"Well... I do like to design."

"Design?"

"Yeah, why do you sound surprised?"

"Oh well... it's just I wouldn't take you for a designy person."

Ladybug laughed, "What's that supposed to mean?"

"I don't know."

"And what do you do other than saving the city?" Ladybug asked him.

"I don't really do a lot other than model with a busy schedule."

Ladybug choked with laughter.

"What?" Chat asked not seeing what was funny.

"I'm sorry... but model? I mean... okay Chat."

He realized, she thought he was joking.

"Why is that unbelievable to you?"

"I don't know I just thought a type of guy like you would do a lot of fun activities with friends."
