These are a collection of drabbles part of the 'How Many Lefts?' timeline. Some akumas can be easily avoided through small choices, like this one. So as not to bog down the story, anything that doesn't need to be there but is fun, will be put here. Though some have importance in emotion, they aren't needed overall.
Small choice here: put the watch away!
The Watch
There was something nagging at Adrien's brain as the race started. Something he knew could go horribly wrong. What was it? What was it! What was this sense of deja vu?
Barely paying attention to the race or the commotion, it surprised both himself and Marinette when he instinctively caught the pocket watch in mid-fall. He smiled at his cute classmate (whom he definitely didn't have a crush on thank you!) and gladly took responsibility for it.
He looked over it for a second before putting it in his pocket for safe keeping. Seriously, why didn't women's fashion include functioning pockets? So many problems could be avoided if they just had pockets!
The race ended peacefully with Alix as the winner and once she finished being congratulated by all their classmates, he came up to her personally and returned the watch. She beamed at him. "Thanks for keeping it safe, Adrien. I don't know what I would have done if it broke."
An image of Alix as a blading racer akuma flashed in his mind, causing a sharp pain he was becoming familiar with. He smiled through it. "Invested in pockets?"
That got a laugh and another thank you. Yeah. He dodged a bullet today.
Marinette, on the other hand, was running home like the devil was behind her. Silly girl.
A/N: Why didn't Alix have pockets? seriously, why? Timebreaker/Chronogirl avoided because of pockets.
Still working on 'How Many Lefts?'. Hate condensing something without a solid timeline...
Can you think of any other akumas that could easily be avoided? leave a note below, or complain about how easy it was to avoid this one. Until next time!
