ML fic: A Kiss to Remember: Part 1

(Based off the fic idea I made here)

“Do you think they are dating?”

“Of course they are, have you seen that kiss on the ladyblog?”

“I wonder how long they’ve been together.”

“Chat noir is so lucky.”

These types of conversations had been all Marinette had been hearing at school for the last week.

Ever since the Oblivio incident. The photo of Ladybug and Chat noir kissing like lovers has spread like wildfire. The Ladyblog has crashed a bunch of times because of the amount of clicks its been getting. Alya was even invited onto a talk show to talk about the ‘kiss seen around the world’. Even her crush Adrien commented that they look cute together. She couldn't help but wonder if there was some twisted bearded man controlling the world around her just to make her miserable.

“It doesn't count!” Marinette screamed into her pillow. The bluish black haired 14 teen year-old was sick of her alter ego being cast as that smug cat’s lover. Which in her opinion was the worst part.

Chat noir hasn't been saying anything about the kiss, ever since they both saw the picture. He made a few playful jabs at her and that was it. But she could tell he is feeling so smug about the whole thing. Marinette is sure blonde cat boy is just using the kiss as some sort of vindication that his flirtations had some merit.

“It does seem to be a little much.”  Tikki commented. The ladybug kwami floated over to Marinette’s cheek. Giving her a hug. The designer reciprocated and held the red and black spotted creature.

“I need to find a way to put this all to rest.” Marinette reasoned. “There is no way I would be in love with that cat.”

“While I agree that everyone is overreacting, don't you think that you are also overreacting? It is a possibility that you could fall...”

“Please don't finish that sentence.” Marinette interrupted. “I am not saying Chat noir is a bad person. Its just it will never happen. I am in love with Adrien.”

“R-Right...” Tikki responded, holding in a rather massive secret, much to the obliviousness of the exhausted teenage girl.

“I am gonna talk with Chat noir about this whole thing, perhaps I can find a way to figure out how to move past this.”

Night had descended over the city of lights. A black cat hero gracefully dashes across rooftops.

Chat noir was in his element tonight. He had been having a great week. All of Paris was supporting him and Ladybug together. He couldn't help but smile as he heard the rumors and talk about his alter ego and the love of his life.

His luck seemed to be changing for the better as he noticed Ladybug was out on the roof of a building.

“A wonderful night for a stroll. Is it not My lady?” He flirtatiously asked as he approached.

The red clad heroine turned to him, her face showing annoyance.

“Something the matter Ladybug?” Chat noir shifted from flirty to concerned.

Ladybug took a deep breath and sighed.

“I am just really tired of all of this talk about that stupid photo.” Ladybug answered, she was clearly agitated and it made the cat hero a bit sad that she wasn't as happy as he was about the situation.

“I guess I have to agree with you on that.” Chat noir answered with a serious tone.

Ladybug’s expression changed.

“You do?”

“Of course, that kiss happened while neither of us have our memories. We don't even remember the kiss.” The blond cat hero explained.

Marinette felt her lips curve into a smile. She felt relieved to hear the cat say those words.

“Exactly.”

“Right? If anything Alya should wait until we kiss for real before posting any pictures.”

In that instance, Ladybug’s smile faded and her frustration returned.

“I suppose you could look at it as a possible predictor of things to come. Though it is the second time we kissed and I still don't remember either which is such a shame because I would love to find out how I got you to ...”

The cat stopped talking once he say the ice cold glare of the scarlet clad heroine.

“It doesn't count chat. I am sick of hearing of all of this speculation about us. We are a team, partners, we aren't a couple.” Ladybug explains. “Neither of the two kisses count, so everyone should quit talking about them.”

“Yikes, it almost sounds like you don't have any sort of romantic feelings towards me.”

“I dont.” Ladybug stated flatly.

Chat noir paused, it felt like a punch to the gut. But he kept composure.

“I have another boy I like Chat noir. I am not entertaining any sort of romantic feelings towards you.”

Chat noir felt the words hit him again, but this time, they knocked an idea into his head.

“How about we settle this matter once and for all.” Chat noir spoke aloud.

Ladybug stared at the cat with a perplexed expression.

“What do you mean Kitty?”

“We have kissed 2 times. Both of those times I don’t even remember. The first one, you claim it was just to save me. The second one, you claim doesn’t count because we were both not ourselves.” Chat noir began explaining

“So you have been listening.” Ladybug responds with an eye roll. “Your point being?”

“The two of us should kiss now...”

“No.” Ladybug answered flatly.

“Me-ouch. At least let me explain before you turn down my idea.” Chat noir said as he tried to keep his cool.

“Okay, explain before I say no again.”

“You believe that there is not potential romantic link between us. I, along with the rest of Paris believe the opposite. Lets kiss now. Both of us clear, consenting and no akuma influence. No excuses on the situation, no cameras. Just you and me.” Chat noir finished

“And why would I agree to this?” Ladybug asked with her eyebrow raised, showing her skeptical nature.

“After we kiss, I will ask you how you feel. If you can look me in the eye, no hesitation that you did not feel any romantic feelings for me, I will stop.”

“Stop what? Stop talking about the kiss? Stop saying how ‘purrfect’ we are for each other?” Ladybug mused.

“I will stop pursuing you romantically.” Chat noir stated completely serious.

Ladybug tries to get a read on him as if this is some sort of trick. But she knows that Chat noir has been pretty upfront with her on pretty much everything. She couldn't help but think that maybe this was the perfect chance to put this to bed.

“And you won’t be sulking about the whole ordeal when I say this?” Ladybug inquired.

“I’ll even do an interview with the Ladyblogger dismissing any chance of us being together. And at least I’ll have one kiss with you that I actually remember. We will simply be crime fighting partners and friends. That is if you can without any doubt say that the kiss meant nothing and you have no romantic interest in me.” Chat noir assures.

The scarlet clad heroine ponders the pros and cons of the situation. 

“I have some criteria that needs to be met.”

“Of course.” Chat noir said practically giddy with excitement.

“1st of all not tongue.”

“Okay.”

“2nd. I will give you the answer 5 no 10 minutes after the kiss. So there is no rash statements made.”

“Fair.”

“3rd. We both go to separate areas after the kiss, no looking at each other, no trying to sway my decision.”

“A bit much but that is fine.”

“4th, no touching my butt while we do this.”

“I will accept that one with a heavy heart.” He teased slightly.

“And finally don’t be too upset when you hear the truth.” Ladybug said with a confident smile.

“Oh, I am sure I will love to hear the truth.”
