Look who's back. Back in black. Who is actually in white and doesn't actually listen to ACDC. Oof. Sorry, it's been a while. High School year two and lack of motivation to start writing anything. Plus, I joined my school's writing club, Writing For Pub and we're close on deadlines.
Anyway...here's chapter 3!
After the scolding from the council, Marinette was free to hang out with her friends and show them around the castle, because they had forgotten where everything was. After dinner, they were all sent to their rooms. Marinette is now found dressed in a nightgown, one that stops right above her knees, preparing for bed, when there was a knock at the door.
"Coming!" She wandered over to the door and opened it to find her knight in shining black leather dressed in a civilian's pajamas (This does not mean that he is transformed).
"Hey, Adrien," Marinette greeted, before moving aside to let him in. She led him to her bed, before sitting down across from him.
"Hey, purr-incess!" He responded with a cheeky smile. Marinette groaned and lightly smacked his upper arm.
"Me-OUCH! M'lady wounds me!" Adrien cried dramatically, drawing a giggle out of the princess.
"Shut-up you stupid cat!" She managed out of her giggles of affection. He stopped his playful wails, before pouncing on Marinette with the determination of eliciting more giggles out of her, with TICKLES! Eventually, he let up and allowed her to breathe. When she did, she sent a harmless glare in his direction.
"We have serious business to talk about, Adrien," She told him seriously, shutting up whatever pun was on his tongue.
"What's up, M'lady?" He asked, sitting up.
"How was Paris without Ladybug?" Marinette questioned.
"It was fine. No akumas. Thankfully. Are you sure you can stay here and not worry about the state of the city?"
"No. But I have to try. I'm not abandoning them, I am just going to have to draw Hawkmoth here," Marinette claimed.
"Okay. Also, I don't know what this is," Adrien started, standing up off of the bed, moving over to her dresser, where he had put down something that Marinette just noticed, "But Master Fu gave it to me to give to you." He walked back over and put what was in his hands on the bed in front of her, before taking his spot next to her on the bed. Adrien watched her eyes widened in recognition.
"What is it, Bugaboo?" He asked her after a few minutes of silence.
"This-" she paused to clear out her throat, "This is the Miracle Box. He sent me the Miracle Box."
"Miracle Box?"
"This," she gestured to the box in front of her, "holds all of the known Miraculous." Marinette opened it to show Adrien. His eyes widened at all of the miraculous' in front of him in this small box. He reached over and ran a finger over the spot where his ring belonged in the box. "The turtle miraculous is in here as well as the fox."
"What does that mean?"
"Means I have questions for Wayzz," Marinette claimed, turning only her head to him, her wide blue eyes met his curious green ones.
