Balcony scene, ladrien style? ;)
accidentally created an au yesterday with @mirthalia, in which the black cat miraculous went to tom instead because of ~reasons~ so i’m using it here :D
Adrien’s scream cut off when a pair of massive arms stoppedhis fall.
“You alright, son?” asked a familiar voice.
“Y-yeah,” Adrien answered, gulping. “Thanks, M. Bearcat.”
The superhero laughed, the sound reverberating throughAdrien’s body as he was held, and it was oddly comforting.
“Just Bearcat is fine, young man,” he said. “‘Monsieur’ is tooformal for a working cat like me. Ladybug! Over here!”
Before Adrien could prepare himself, Ladybug swung over totheir bit of rooftop.
Ladybug took a step back, hand hovering over her chest when shecaught sight of Adrien with her partner.
…Who promptly dropped him into her arms instead.
“Please take him somewhere for safekeeping,” saidBearcat, grinning.
Ladybug’s face twisted with panic.
“No buts! I can take care of the akuma until you get back.”He gave them both an exaggerated wink. “Go on!”
Hesitant, Ladybug dropped Adrien’s legs to the floor, butshe kept a firm grip around his waist. She reached for her yoyo.
Adrien slowly wrapped his arms around her neck and nodded,trying not to let his nerves show.
(Ladybug! Was! Right!Here! With him!)
With a choked cough, Ladybug took to the skies, Adrien’sheart racing as the wind whipped at them both.
They landed on a balcony that was mostly out of sight. Ladybugsqueezed him before letting go,already hopping back onto the railing in a crouch.
“This is your friend Nino’s place. You can hide here,” shesaid, readying her yoyo again.
Adrien glanced into the darkened bedroom, Nino nowhere to befound.
“How do you know where Nino lives? And that he’s my friend?”he blurted out.
Ladybug froze. “Uh, well, I-I know a lot about your class!Since they’re always getting akumatized!!”
“Oh,” said Adrien, disappointed. “Right…”
Ladybug turned around, looking at him with bright blue eyes.They pierced him, drawing him in and pulling him apart as he gulped. He tookhold of her hand.
(How could one personbe so irresistible?)
“Thank you for always saving me,” he said.
His hand only shook a little when he kissed the back ofhers.
Suddenly, Ladybug lost her balance and fell backwards. Herknees were hooked over the railing as the rest of her body sprawled gracelesslyon the concrete. She stared up at her hand, still in Adrien’s grasp, andwhimpered.
