Marinette gets caught in the rain and Chat saves her, taking her back to his place (it was closer) and he has her change into his pajamas until the rain stops.
"The forecast didn't call for rain" Marinette whined, only a little over halfway to Adrien's to work on homework for literature class. Neither of them were the best at it so he had offered for her to come over and study Les Miserables at his house so that they would both understand it before the test.
Not wanting Adrien to see her soaking wet, she knew she had to escape the downpour, and fast. She ran about a block before she felt her legs slip out from under her. When her head slammed on the pavement she saw the world fade to black just as a dark shape loomed over her.
He hadn't been stalking her. He just was following her to make sure she made it to his house safely. And he was doing it from the shadowy bit of the neighboring rooftops and trying his best not to let her know he was there.
But it was a good thing he was, otherwise he wouldn't have seen her slip on the sidewalk and hit her head, blacking out. The second her feet had left the ground, he leapt from the building across the street, endeavoring to catch her before she could be hurt, but he was too late. He reached her just as she was blacking out.
In an instant he was scooping her up and running towards the Agrest mansion. He ran around back and jumped up to his balcony, Marinette still held bridal style in his arms. He flung open his door and rushed to his bed, where he lightly deposited the unconscious girl.
He went over to his mini fridge and pulled an ice bag from the freezer portion. He lightly placed it on her head. Then plagg released the transformation. Adrien turned to look at his kiwami.
"What are you doing! What if she wakes up?" He whisper yelled. Plagg rolled his eyes.
"She is going to wake up at some point, and I want to get some cheese in me before we have to transform again, to keep the illusion." Plagg said, getting a wedge of blue cheese fridge. Marinette stirred.
"Hurry up. She is going to wake up any second!" Adrien hissed. Plagg swallowed the cheese wedge whole and was briefly wedge shaped himself. When he had settled back to normal shape and belched, they re-transformed. Just in time too, as Marinette's eyes flicked open.
Chat jumped over to her.
"Where am I? What happened? Chat?" She mumbled, hands on her head.
"You guessed it princess. I was doing a patrol when I saw you fall and hit your head. I carried you to the house of a friend of mine," He told her. He got up from where he was crouching besides the bed and went over to a dresser. He pulled out an outfit and set in next to Marinette on the bed. "My friend told me to find you something to wear, and I thought these would look just purrfect on you." Chat finished. He headed for the patio doors.
"Where are you going?" Marinette asked, sitting up. He flashed her his signature grin.
"Did you want me to stay in here while you changed? Because if that's what you want, I'd be happy to oblige." He said. She shook her head, wincing with the motion.
"No no. But where is the bathroom, and where is this friend of yours?" She asked. He opened the door and stepped out, turning to look at her.
"Through the black door is the bathroom, and I'm sure he will be in here soon enough." And with a wink her roguish knight was gone.
Marinette carried the clothes to the bathroom and stepped inside. The bathroom was practically as big as her bedroom. It had a jacuzzi and a rain shower and what might have been a hair dryer for your whole body.
Marinette peeled off her dripping wet school clothes and let her hair out of their pig tails. She looked at herself in the mirror and frowned. With her hair such a mess and her muscular frame pale from the cold she was sure she was catching, she didn't look as cute and girly as she always wished she could. She sighed and looked at the clothes that Chat Noir had pulled from the dresser.
He had to be kidding. It was a black t-shirt and red with black spot flannel pj pants. She sighed harder and pulled the pjs on over her underwear. She pulled her hair out from under the shirt and looked at herself again. The black shirt only made her look more pale. She finger combed her hair before turning back to the door, mentally preparing herself for whatever weird flirtatious friend of Chat Noir's might be on the other side. She opened the door and was met with a very familiar face and voice.
"Did he give you my pajamas?"
"Uh Adrien! I am so sorry for- This isn't- I'm not-" Marinette suttered. Adrien had a polite smile on his face as he walked towards her, hand extending a cup of hot chocolate her way.
"Mari, it's fine. Chat Noir explained everything. Frankly I'm just glad you don't appear to have a concussion," Adrien said, nodding to the hot chocolate in encouragement. Marinette gratefully wrapped her cold fingers around the warm beverage and smiled back at the boy who's pajamas she was wearing.
Oh my god she thought. She was wearing Adrien Agreste's pajamas. He owned Ladybug pajamas. This was hurting her head, or maybe that was the fall, either way she had to sit down. Adrien noticed her swaying on her feet and grabbed her elbow, leading her back to the bed where she had awoken earlier.
Oh my god she thought. She had slept in Adrien Agreste's bed. Luckily she was sitting down because she didn't want to give away to him how week in the knees this all made her. This was all too much, and now he was just staring at her, one hand still on her arm.
"Are you going to be ok?" He asked her. She nodded gingerly. "Do you want me to get you anything? A blanket? Some food?" Her stomach rumbled at the words. "I'll take that as a yes." He said, getting up to go get her something to eat. She located her bag sitting on a chair, she reached over and grabbed it, letting Tikki stretch and checking her phone.
No wonder she was hungry she hadn't eaten anything after class and it was now nearly seven. She should probably call home and tell her dad she wouldn't be home for dinner. As she dialed the number Adrien reentered the room with a cup of soup in his hands. Marinette looked around and luckily Tikki had hidden herself.
"Is soup good? I mean I'm sure it's good soup, but like do you like soup?" He asked, sitting down next to her on the bed. She smiled and he passed her the soup and a spoon. As she ate the soup she could feel his eyes on her. When she was done she looked over at him. He looked away so she wouldn't think he was staring at her, even though she knew he was.
"Should I do something with this?" She said in relation to the soup bowl. He took them from her and put them on a nearby table. Their was a minute of awkward silence.
"Sooo... Do you still want to look over the novel so we have some idea what's going on in class tomorrow?" He asked her. She smiled.
"I love you," They shared a wide eyed glance before she quickly corrected herself "I MEAN I'd love to!" She fixed, face twisted in an awkward smile. He was still just staring at her.
"What?" He asked, shaking his head to clear whatever crazy thoughts had been running through it.
"I said I would love to go over the book." Marinette said, reaching towards her bag. She pulled out her book while Adrien went over to his desk to get his.
When he came back over he gave her a quick, light as air, kiss on the cheek before sitting down. Her face began to resemble to color of the pajamas she was wearing.
Maybe just wearing something with ladybug print could make a girl more lucky.
