I just want you to know who I am

Summary:

You know when you get a song stuck in your head and then begin to think about the lyrics and then you equate the lyrics to your relationship with someone?

No?

Marinette doesn't either. Totally.

That'd be cringe. And Marinette isn't cringe.

(She absolutely is, she is fooling nobody)

Or Marinette loves older music and is confused about her feelings for her partner.

Or or Ladybug did not realize that the suits amplify voices and that the streets of Paris are very echoy.

Notes:

Work Text:

"And I'd give up forever to touch you..." Ladybug hums softly as she swings through Paris on a clear Saturday, unknowingly her voice is louder than she ment it to be, it echoes through the streets. 

"'Cause I know that you feel me somehow..." She continues, voice holding honesty and warmth, she's singing to someone, but who?

"You're the closest to Heaven that I'll ever be..." Within seconds, the clip of her voice is across the internet, thousands of people in awe of their superheroe's voice. 

"And I don't wanna go home right now..!" She laughs slightly, swinging peacefully through the city she knows like the back of her hand, she's unaware that her voice has become a viral sensation. 

"And all I can taste is this moment..." Her voice is beautiful and strong, strong but not screaming about it's strength simply allowing itself to be strong, because the person singing is strong. 

"And all I can breathe is your life..." The young teen continues warmly, completely at ease swinging around the buildings.

"And sooner or later, it's over..." The blue eyed girl soars through the air, voice warm and light, clearly not thinking anyone will overhear.

"I just don't wanna miss you tonight..!" She laughs brightly, unaware of the citizens following her, unaware that they're managing to catch every word, unaware that she's currently going viral. 

"And I don't want the world to see me!" Her voice echoes through the streets of her city, bluebell eyes sparkling in the city lights, she's gorgeous in her element. 

"'Cause I don't think that they'd understand!" The teen superhero patrols the city with a grace that's half practice and half genetics, a smile on her lips.

"When everything's made to be broken!" The videos of Ladybug singing go viral almost immediately, only clips at first, then someone finds the song, and everything blows up. 

"I just want you to know who I am!" She's carefree, unaware that her singing is being spread across the internet. 

 

"And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming..." Chat Noir begins, landing behind Ladybug on the rooftop, smiling slightly.

"Or the moment of truth in your lies..." The superheroine whips her head around, looking at him with wide eyes filled with genuine shock, he was unexpected, it was Sunday, not his night to patrol. 

"When everything feels like the movies..." He continues, smiling softly at her, emerald eyes shining brightly as he bows to her. 

"Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive..!" He gives her a self-confident smirk, holding out a hand for a dance, eyes warm.

"And I don't want the world to see me..?" She asks, getting up hesitantly, taking his hand with a slightly confused smile. 

"'Cause I don't think that they'd understand!" The blond haired teen laughs brightly, beginning to lead her in an improvised dance.

"When everything's made to be broken!" She laughs too, smiling warmly at him, following his steps. 

"I just want you to know who I am!" The pair sing together, eyes bright and full of warmth, continuing to dance. 

 

"And I don't want the world to see me!" On Monday, Marinette heard her own voice singing, whipping her head around at the sound. 

"'Cause I don't think that they'd understand!" Alya was shoving her phone into Nino's face, rambling and raving about how she'd caught footage of the singing hero's jaunt through Paris. 

"When everything's made to be broken!" Soon everyone crowds around Alya and Nino, watching the video, even though most have seen it already. 

"I just want you to know who I am!" The bluenette continued to stare at the video, she was speechless, this had been the last thing she'd expected when she'd come in today. 

 

"And I don't want the world to see me!" The spotted superhero exclaims at the leather clad one, blushing furiously, she was so embarrassed!

"'Cause I don't think that they'd understand!" She continues, holding her face in her hands, trying to hide her deep deep embarrassment, why did they have to film her singing!?

"When everything's made to be broken." Chat Noir places his hands on her shoulders, getting her attention onto him, trying to ground her. 

"I just want you to know who I am!" Ladybug exclaims, looking right in his eyes, trying to get him to realize she'd been singing thinking of him.

"I just want you to know who I am..?" He looks at her shocked, before he begins smiling, quickly pulling her into a tight embrace. 

"I just want you to know who I am..!" She laughs brightly, hugging him back just as fiercely.

"I just want you to know who I am..." They smile warmly at the other, enjoying the other's presence, just staying in the moment.
