Adrien Agreste could usually pretend he was fine. He'd never faltered from his regimen of fake smiles since childhood. At twenty-six years old he was an accomplished model with nearly a million to his name. Some would look at him and swoon: a perfect man with a perfect life. What they failed to see were the heartache and the trauma.

As Adrien, he couldn't be anything less than perfect. Everything he did was monitored, everything he did was rehearsed. He was a pawn in his father's game, which came with all the perks of abuse and depression. But as Chat Noir, he could be himself. He could be goofy and silly without being chastised. He could cry without being tormented. But when his lives bleed together, his pain becomes too much.

"M-make sure you g-get a better partner this time... little bug."

He stopped. He couldn't bear to continue. Those words... they- they scared him. He knew exactly why they struck fear into him though: they were true. But he couldn't let go; not now. Not when he was this close. Not when he finally had her. Not when they were finally together. Not when she finally loved him- He started to feel a burning sensation in the back of his throat; trying to calm himself down he started combing his shaking fingers through his hair rapidly, like a mad man. Until it became too much and he let out a choked sob. The tears burned his face and his throat felt like it was on fire. Adrien couldn't stop the pain- the amount of anger- the amount of- trust and love. This girl was all he needed, she was his oxygen, his whole world, he loved her wasn't that enough!? He needed her in his life, but she wasn't- All of his thoughts came to a stop as Marinette, the love of his life, placed a delicate hand over his shoulder and gave it a comforting squeeze. Her bluebell eyes met his green swollen ones and- 1st place in #Ladyblanc on 1/26/21 6th place in #Ladrien on 7/4/24❤️ 4th place in #ChatBlanc on 1/31/21 30th place in #Paris on 2/20/21
