The constant slew of chatter around Adrien was quite mind-numbing, he decided. The arm slung around his shoulder, most probably Nino's, was the only thing still keeping Adrien upright at this point. His eyes groggily opened as Nino's arm slung off his shoulder and instead steadied his hand on Adrien's shoulder, "Dude, you're not looking so good. Do you wanna head to the nurse? "Nino's face came closer as Adrien let out a great yawn, only just in time covering it with his hand.
"No, no, it's fine Nino. Father just scheduled a last minute photoshoot yesterday, so I'm still tired from that." Nino let his hand go and cast a worried glance Adrien's way, adjusted his hat and went inside to catch up with Alya. Letting loose a sigh, Adrien moved his hand through his hair and mussed up its usually pristine condition. Collecting his breath, he entered the class only to be greeted by the panicked sight of Marinette reaching out before he-
Splash!
Marinette's hand stopped just shy of Adrien's chest as he numbly felt drops of water slipping down his forehead, onto his nose and resting on his lip. In a sudden flurry of motion, Marinette was everywhere and nowhere at once, "ARGH! Adrien, I'm so sorry!" - Marinette grabbed the tissues from a nearby tissue dispenser - "It's just that its April fool's day and we always do this trick on the last one to class! Argh, I'm so, so, so sorry! Your Dad's probably gonna kill you -and me! - I'm so so so sorr-" only for her to be interrupted by a snort and then full blown laughter from Adrien.
Marinette dropped the tissues she was holding in a futile attempt to dry Adrien clothes - his wet clothes that were sticking to his frame, oh God! - And then registered the other full blown laughs around the room as she let out a quiet 'Huh?' from her mouth. Alya sidled up to Marinette's side as Adrien tried, and failed, to gain his composure, "Girl, you are just too precious!" Stifling another snort, she threw a towel Adriens way which he deftly caught, "Today's March 31st, Girl! I think you need to catch more rest," Was all she said before turning heel as Adrien pounced on Marinette, enclosing her in his arms, causing the poor girl to turn beetroot red, and pressed his head in her hair as he transferred some of the water to her.
Marinette squeaked, turning bright red as she felt a phantom breath on her neck. Nuzzling into her neck she asked a question, "Hey Adrien,"
"Mhmm." he answered back as he let her raven locks caress his cheeks, his eyes suddenly turning droopy, "When are you going to let go?"
"Never." Adrien whispered in her ear, before turning slack in a blushing Marinette's arms and leaving behind a hooting Alex, the nearest to hear what Adrien had said, a cackling Alya and a frankly terrified Nino who seemed to be about to pee himself with the amount of shipping energy Alya was letting out.
Adrien slept very well that day, in Marinette's arms.
He'd best try it again soon, he decided.
