Marinette's POV
---------------------------
It's been over a month now since I found out that Adrien was Chat Noir. I've been avoiding being alone with him in school and don't spend patrol nights with him anymore. When there's an akumatized victim though, I try to finish it as quick as possible then go home with no extra chit-chat.
I know it's an awful thing for me to do to him, but I just can't face him, at least not yet...Not like this. "Marinette, it's okay to feel weird about all of this, but you should at least talk to him." Tikki sat on the bed next to me and sighed, "he deserves that much."
I scoffed and looked at the floor, "it's not that easy, I don't feel weird about it at all. More upset and angry that he lied to me. He rejected me then used my sadness against me as Chat Noir!" I threw my pillow across the room at my desk letting pictures fly everywhere.
How can he try and play me like that! I've been trying so hard to keep my cool but I--!
Before I could finish the thought, I could hear my mom calling me from down the stairs. "What'd you say, mom!?"
"You have a visitor!" Oh great, just what I needed to lift my spirits, Adrien showing up at my door again. I should tell her I don't feel well like last time.
I opened the door that leads downstairs and leaned over to yell to my mom about how I'm feeling when Alya pops her head through the doorway, "hey girl! It's been so long so I thought I'd swing by!" She barely made it all the way up before I gave her a humongous bear hug tackling her to the floor. We both laughed as we sat up, "Jeez girl relax! It's only been a couple hours since our vacay started!"
I stood up and grabbed her hand to pull her up, "sorry, I got excited that's all! No school WOOOO!" I giggled as we both walked to my bed and plopped down together. "So what's up for reals? Usually, you text me before coming over...any news on the LadyBlog, or is it something that rhymes with Lino?" She blushed and threw a pillow at my face.
"Listen here, missy! Just because we've started dating doesn't mean I'm always gonna want to talk about him!" I laughed as I smacked her right back with the pillow.
"Oh, really~? Then why are you here?" I wiggled my eyebrows and we both laughed.
After a few seconds, Alya held the pillow to her chest and sighed looking to the side. "Marinette, be honest with me..." I sat up at the sound of her monotone voice. She didn't turn to look at me but kept her eyes trained on her shoes. "what happened between you and Adrien...I know there's something wrong, and for you to suddenly say the day after you confessed that you don't like him well...It's just unexpected." She looked back up with me with a sad expression.
I stood up and looked over to where my desk peeked out of the corner of the room with pictures spewed everywhere. Turning back to her I sighed and softly said, "it's not a big deal, I just realized that we'll never be together..." She looked up in surprise at me with her mouth slightly open.
I looked to the side as she stood up and held my shoulders saying, "Mari listen to me, you may not believe me now but Nino told me something a while ago that he made me promise not to tell you, but I just...Seeing you like this, I think you should at least know what he said about you over November break when you were in China with your family..." I looked to the side not knowing what to say.
I don't care what he said at this point...He hasn't visited me as Chat at all since the night of the dance. It doesn't matter what he said, all that matters is that he used my feelings against me.
I looked back at her with a severe spark in my eyes and said without mumbling or stuttering, "I don't care what he said back then. He's a liar and a player, he's lucky I still want to be friends." She looked back at me surprised and went to say something, but I already knew, "please, if we are friends, you'll trust me enough not to ask what this is about. I don't want to talk about this, my mind is made up." I looked out my window to see two black triangle shapes flow with the December wind.
This may be my last chance to let Adrien know how I feel about both sides of him...I guess this is what he gets for eavesdropping on me.
"Alright Mari, I won't ask...But please if you're ever feeling alone or actually want to talk about it, call me and I'll be here in a flash." She hugged me as she said this, and I hugged her back.
"Thank you," I doubt you'll ever find out about what happened and I'm sorry for that but right now...Right now I need to lead another cat off my trail. "It's getting dark Alya, you should go home now and sleepover next week so we can talk more before I leave again!" I hugged her again as she agreed with me.
I walked her out to make sure she didn't think anything was off. Waving goodbye to her, I sighed and looked up at my balcony to see Chat swinging up over my railing.
Here goes nothing.
-------------------------
I'm getting very emotional writing this...I hope all the adrienette shippers and marichat shippers don't come for me while I sleep tonight :) love yooou
Also, the time hops are here so that the story doesn't get boring with filler episodes. If anyone wants them though, just tell me and I'll start there, but I don't think I'm going to add them until I have all of the important characters brought up.
