It Seemed Like A Simple Question

by dfcfanfics

On a quiet summer evening, a young woman and her cat-eared companion study the stars together and talk about whatever comes to mind. Chat notes how Marinette and her parents trust him with her implicitly, and takes mock offense to that. The conversation that follows goes somewhere that neither of them expected, with one little question hitting with some impact. Marichat one-shot.
