Back in Adrien's room, Adrien sat in his bathtub full of water. He sat hugging his knees to his chest and crying softly.

"Adrien..." Plagg began

"Save it, please. I'm not really in a joking mood." Adrien pleaded

"Hmm" Plagg sighed, he knew he wasn't the greatest at consoling.

"If you'd just let me I could cataclysm his ass out of Paris-" Plagg said angrily and raised his fist at the door

Adrien laughed and looked up at Plagg, his eyes puffy and red.

"Thanks, Plagg." He smiled and wiped his nose

"I wasn't joking but sure" Plagg smiled back, glad that he could pull Adrien out of the black hole he was sinking into.

"What if you go see Marinette? She always manages to cheer you up!" Plagg suggested

"Nah, I don't want to bother her with something like this." He sighed and got out of the tub. He grabbed his towel and began to dry himself off as he walked back to his bed and got dressed in his pajamas.

"Adrien..." Plagg tried to convince him again

"Not to be cheesy but you have to learn to talk about your feelings. Like therapy or something! Otherwise, you'll end up like your father."

"I'll never end up like my father." Adrien promised Plagg.

"Then go talk to someone!" Plagg said again

"Fine. I'll wait till 1 am to leave, that way I'll be sure not to get caught this time!" Adrien nodded at Plagg and began to construct a fake body out of pillows to hide underneath his blankets.

~ 1 am ~

"Plagg, Plagg wake up!" Adrien used his finger to nudge Plagg awake

Plagg moaned in protest as his eyes fluttered open.

"I changed my mind, bad idea! Let's just sleep tonight. Talk about your problems later at school." Plagg protested in a sleepy voice

"Plagg! Come on, I'll let you order cheese on my phone again!" Adrien bribed Plagg

"Oh alright alright! Just say the thing already and let's get this over with!"

"Plagg claws out!"

As Chat Noir jumped from roof to roof his mind began to cloud up again.

"This is such a bad idea. How selfish of me to wake her up at this hour because of my own problems. This has nothing to do with her so why am I even bothering her with this sort of thing?" Chat Noir found himself standing on Marinette's balcony as he talked out loud to himself.

"Guess there's no going back now..." He stood on her balcony and looked down at the door beneath him.
