I got the idea for this story from this pin: pin/326651779205101001/.
Marinette and Adrien are lifelong friends and are now dating. Adrien was never homeschooled and Marinette has never been shy or stuttered around him. Their best friends are Alya and Nino (also dating). During their fight with an akuma victim, an arrow made of shadows pierces Marinette in the back and vanishes. As she loses consciousness, Adrien catches her and watches in horror as thousands of dark butterflies burst from her body and disappear in the sky.
