Little Papillon's-Miraculous One Shots

Food

"Marinette! You're going to be late for you patrol with Chat Noir!" Tikki reminds her.

"Ahh!" Marinette yelps.

Tikki giggles.

"Tikki, transform me!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Catch me if you can!" Ladybug called out teasingly to Chat.

"Oh, is this a challenge, M'Lady? You're on." Chat replied, grinning.

Ladybug smirked.

"I wouldn't be too sure, Kitty."

"Kitty?" Chat was practically drooling.

He was so busy drooling, he hadn't noticed Ladybug had already left.

Until he heard her beautiful laugh.

"Come on, Chat!"

Chat laughed.

He extended his baton and went after her.

Running running running running running

Dizzy dizzy dizzy dizzy dizzy dizzy dizzy

Faint.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Chat opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Ladybug's lips.

He resisted the urge to close the distance between them.

The next thing he realised was how tired he felt.

Like as if all his muscles were exhausted.

He felt like he couldn't move.

And that was when he realised the worst pain, and was surprised he didn't realise until now.

Hunger.

His stomach panged.

Hunger.

Food.

Give me food.

He struggled to his feet.

"Chat?" Ladybug's backed up. She could see her face now. It was all blurry, like an old film record.

"You...you don't look too good."

"I'm...I'm fine, M'Lady."

"Chat, you're obviously not fine."

Chat shook his head, too exhausted to talk.

"Getting enough sleep?"

Nod.

"Work out too much?"

Shake of head.

"Drinking enough?"

Nod.

"Eating enough?"

No answer. Chat looked away.

"Chat. Answer me."

Oh, Chat wanted to. He really wanted to. But what could he say? "Oh hey, Ladybug, I just happen to be a model whose own father gave him food restrictions do he won't go up a size?"

Ha.

Though he supposed he could give her a little clue....

"Chat. Now."

"Ladybug...do you know anyone who's a model?"

"Yeah, but why would that- Oh."

Ladybug's eyes shone with understanding.

"Yeah. My father's a big-time fashion designer. I model his clothes. And, you know, a model's gotta have a perfect body, right? Even if it means having small meals and no fatty foods...."

"Oh Chat..."

"Yeah."

"So that's why you're tired?"

"My father made my meals smaller. Said I was eating too much already."

"Chat, you're practically thinner than me! That's it."

"Huh?" Chat frowned, confusion evident in his eyes.

"When we have patrol, I'm going to bring some food, OK?"

"Oh no, you don-"

"I want to. No buts."

"Ok."

Ladybug struggled to find something to say.

"So, you're a model?"

Chat blushed.

"Yeah...I have a lot of fans in my civilian life as well. Jealous, M'Lady?"

Ladybug snorted.

"You wish."

A comfortable silence.

"You know a model?" Chat asked, curious.

"Yeah..." Ladybug sighed dreamily.

"Ooooh, looks like M'Lady has a crush!" Chat teased in a sing-song voice, desperately trying and succeeding at masking his hurt from her words. She had a crush? Still...his lady was being quite chatty tonight. He could learn some valuable information. He could go home and watch sad animes and cry later.

This cat was on a mission.

Ladybug blushed.

"Stop it, Chat!"

"Awww....may I please at least know his name?"

Ladybug debated his question. It wouldn't hurt to tell him, right? It's not like he knew Adrien personally.

"Alright...his name is Adrien. Adrien Agreste."

Chat's mouth popped open.

Ladybug, beautifully oblivious, continued.

"He's just so perfect....and it's not only that. He's really kind and sweet, and never intentionally hurt anyone's feeling. And he's the perfect gentleman. Did I mention he was really nice? But I can never talk to him, I always stutter. I just stick to staring at the back of his head, since I sit behind him. And that's probably as far as I'll get. "

Chat was so red, he looked like Nathaneal.

Ladybug finally noticed.

"Chat? What's wrong? Do you have a fever?" Ladybug asked, worried.

Chat continued balking at her.

"Marinette?"

A/N: I have honestly no idea what happened here. It was supposed to be Ladybug giving Chat a croissant, but then it turned to Chat's dietary problems, and then it turned to a reveal. I'm sorry if it's confusing and random.
