Certain Akuma {Cat Noir X Reader}

She Knows

Cat Noir's POV

I'm swinging home from y/n's house when I see Ladybug.

I extend my pole towards her, calling her name.

She looks surprised to see me, but it is her patrol night, just like every other Monday.

"Oh hey M'lady! What are you doing on this purrfect night?"

"I should be asking you that, it's my night for patrol."

My smile falters, I don't want her to know I hang out with y/n, she'll probably say it's too dangerous, but I won't be able to stop, I really like going to see her, I can be myself.

"I was just out for a stroll, would you like to join me?" I make up an excuse.

"Well, I'm still doing patrol, but I guess we could go together."

"Purrfect!"

She rolls her eyes then swing away, and while I follow I feel a slight twinge, she never laughs at my puns, I don't even know if she's ever smiled.

Y/n sometimes smiles, even laughs.

I like how she laughs.

And makes me feel good to make others laugh.

I notice how quiet it is, no akuma's in sight.

There's not even a creep out, which we usually see a few of.

"It's... strangely quiet?" I say.

"Yeah, I haven't even seen any creeper guy out, I'm not complaining of course, but what's happened?"

I smile, remembering y/n fighting the big guy the other night.

"Maybe they've all been scared away," I say laughing.

"What's so funny about that?"

"Oh nothing really."

But she can tell there's something.

"Spill it! What's so funny about a creep getting scared?"

"Fine. The other day I was out and I heard a scream. Naturally I went to check on it, and I saw someone I knew. She was being harassed by a creepy guy, but when I went to help her, she kicked him so hard he fell over! Then she just kept beating him until I stopped her and the cops came! Thinking back, it's hilarious how a giant creep got taken out by a y/a (your age) girl!"

I'm in hysterics now, because y/n is usually quiet and shy.

She doesn't seem to think it's very funny, but laughs a little at me anyway

Since there's no danger, we go sit on the Eiffel Tower.

She looks really pretty in this light, and for some reason I wonder how y/n would look here. Beautiful I'm sure.

Wait what?! Why did I think that? I'm sitting here with the love of my life, and for some reason I'm thinking about another girl?

What's happening?

I shake my head, and she notices.

"Something on your mind?" she asks me.

"Nothing important, just a bit stressed. Uh, schoolwork and stuff." I lie.

Why did I just lie to my partner? There wasn't really any need to.

I guess I am usually stressing over something anyway, so is it really a lie?

I tell myself it's not, but it's not really the truth either.

"Ah yeah, I know how you feel, it can be very difficult managing everything." she sympathizes with me.

"Yep. But I'm used to it, I've always been busy. The only time I'm not doing anything is after 10, when I'm supposed to be asleep, father's rules." I tell her.

"Ooh Cat's breaking the ruuulless!" she teases me.

"It's not the first time, won't be the last either." I say with a laugh.

"Naughty naughty! But why are you really out when you don't have to be? I know you said you were out for a stroll, but you didn't say it very convincingly."

Should I tell her? Could I tell her? What's it matter really? What is she gonna do, forbid me from seeing y/n? I don't want to lie to her.

"Ok fine, I'll tell you. Do you remember the last akuma we fought?"

"Yes, it was a young girl who'd gotten super stressed or something right?"

"Yep, her name's y/n. And I took her home remember?"

"Yeah. So?"

"Well, we talked a little and she's super nice. More than nice, she's really cool actually." I say smiling.

"Cat, please tell me you haven't been bothering some civilian?"

"I'm not bothering her! She told me just earlier she loves me coming over!" I defend myself.

"Well, if she doesn't care then whatever. But please be careful, we wouldn't want Hawkmoth finding out about it and using her as bait or something. You do know that it's really dangerous right?"

"Yeah. I know. And she does too, but I'm careful! I always go later at night, and I alter my routes. I won't let anything happen. Cat's honor!" I hold up my hand in a swearing position.

"Ok, just be safe." she says getting up.

"I will. Goodnight M'lady."

"Night Cat." she swings away.

I run home, and detransform.

Why did I even tell her? I didn't need to.

"UUUUHHHH CHEEEESSEEE!!"

"Plagg, calm down!" I say laughing.

"I can't! Cause you can't make up your mind about what girl you like, and I have to help you run around and chit chat!"

"Plagg, what are you talking about, you know my minds been made up for a while. Ladybug, it's always been Ladybug."

Right.

Of course.

Ladybug.

So why am I still thinking about this?

"Whatever kid. I don't see why you even want a girlfriend, when you could just have cheese!"

"Because I don't find cheese as amazing as you do, in fact I find it stinky!"

He gasps and pets his goopy mess.

"Oh he didn't mean it!"

Why is he like this?

I just laugh and get into bed, and for some reason, I think about y/n telling me goodnight, instead of Ladybug as I usually do.

I don't have time to think about it any more, as I fall asleep quickly.
