Cuddles- Adrinette Sick fic (Implied identity reveal and dating)
'I HATE being sick.' Marinette groans as she rolls over in her bed. She feels another cold chill race across her body and pulls her blanket closer.
Tikki flew close to Marinette and felt of her forehead, "You feel warm but you don't feel like you have a fever, Marinette. Maybe you should move the blanket for a while and cool off." Tikki watches sadly as her chosen sits up slowly before leaning over the side of the bed and emptying her already empty stomach into a well placed bucket.
'Oh Mari, I wish my Kwami magic could fix this for you' ,Tikki thinks. Once finished, Marinette drags herself out of bed to rinse out her mouth and the bucket. Tikki slumps against the pillow thinking about what she can do for the young heroine when she suddenly hears a knock. The small creature flies up to the hatch leading towards the roof to let in the black clad visitor.
Adrien tapped twice on Mari's rooftop hatch before Tikki let him in. "How is she doing? Has she been able to hold anything down?" He asks while detransforming.
"No she hasn't. I'm really worried Adrien. She can't eat, can't sleep and the only thing she can hold down is liquids." Tikki says while gesturing to the bottles of water, ginger ale and Powerade on Mari's nightstand. Adrien walks over and straightens up the sheets and blankets on the bed before settling himself against the headboard as Marinette leaves the bathroom.
After climbing the ladder to her bed, she stops at the sight of her boyfriend in her bed. "W-what are you doing here, Ad-adrien?" she asks, trying to ignore the chills she's getting. Adrien frowns as he gets up to make his way to her, "I'm here to take care of you Mari. Tikki can't do everything and she deserves a break." He says with a smile towards the little red bug, who nods and goes off to find her partner and some food.
"But I don't want to get you sick. Paris needs at least one of their heroes to be healthy." Marinette tries to argue as Adrien reaches out a hand to feel her forehead.
"I'm not suggesting we make out or anything. I'm just here to make sure you're ok." Adrien tells her as she rubs her head into his hand."My little kitten." He laughs at the irritated look she gives him.
Before she can argue with him further, Adrien leads her to her side of the bed and sits her down before taking the blanket off the bed and replacing it with a different, thinner one. As Marinette is sitting there, she watches as her boyfriend settles himself in her bed and turns towards her with his arms wide open. "Lay however you want, whatever's comfortable to you. My job is just to lay here and hold you, My Lady." Mari sighs and lays down, squirming and wiggling a bit before finally getting comfy.
"Thank you, Adrien." Marinette sighs as she settles into his arms.
"You're more than welcome, Princess." He replies as he kisses the top of her head and they both slowly fall into a deep, uninterrupted sleep.
******Two weeks later*******
"I knew there was a chance that you'd get sick." Marinette says as she helps a certain someone into their bed. "I didn't think I would. If I had known I wouldn't have been so close to you." comes the reply. "You don't have to be rude." Tikki says in a scolding voice. "Yeah, besides you're going to the 'doctor' tomorrow so you'll be fine in no time. Now get some sleep, Plagg." Adrien says to his kwami as he rubs the top of the black cat's head before heading out of the room with Marinette and Tikki.
Plagg groans. "I HATE being sick"
