I do not, and never will own miraculous Ladybug

Thank you all for the suggestions you gave me for this series so far. I would love for even more prompts. Thank you all for sticking with me, and reading my stories. You don't know how much your encouragement, and kind words help me. You guys have helped me through writers block, and days where I have been feeling down. I love you all. - Alice O'flynn

Marinette woke up late, her entire being sore. Her head felt clogged with cotton, and her nose was running. She pulled her blankets closer, feeling a chill down to her bones. Her alarm started ringing, and she threw her hands over her ears, the alarm too loud for her. She buried her head in her blankets and pillows as her alarm kept sounding.

"Marinette, you're going to be late for school." Sabine yelled up to her daughter. When she didn't get an answer, she went up to check on her daughter. She saw her daughter still laying in bed. "Marinette?" She turned off her daughter's alarm, and went up to gently shake Marinette.

"I just want to sleep." Marinette moaned.

"Marinette, you need to go to school," Sabine said, and Marinette started to sit up. A shiver ran through her as she let go of her blanket. Sabine noticed, and put her hand on Marinette's forehead. "Oh, Marinette, you are burning up."

"I feel awful, Mama." Marinette said, closing her eyes.

"It will be alright. I'll call the school. You can go back to sleep now."

"Thank you, Mama." Marinette collapsed back into her pillow. Before she fell asleep again, she sent a text to Alya, so that her friend wouldn't be too worried for her.

At school Nino, Adrien, and Alya were all hanging out, waiting for Marinette to arrive, and for school to get started. Alya's phone buzzed, and she checked her text.

"Oh no," She said, as she read Marinette's text.

"What's wrong?" Nino asked, putting his hand on Alya's.

"Marinette won't be coming to school. She's out sick today." Alya said, and Adrien frowned. "Well, school is going to suck now."

"Do you think she would allow us to visit her at lunch, even though she is sick?" Adrien asked, and Alya smiled at that.

"Oh, I think she would love visitors….. It's just…. I have already promised my mom that I would spend lunch with her…. She's trying out a new recipe for the Hotel. When you go tell Marinette hi for me." Alya said, planning to get Adrien to go alone. She was thankful that Nino seemed to catch onto her plan.

"Dude, I have to practice my DJ skills, but you should still go. Marinette would love it." Nino said.

"Okay, I'll go for all of us." Adrien said, not noticing what his friends were doing.

At lunch time, Adrien went to Marinette's house. Sabine sent him up to Marinette's room, with two bowls of soup, one for her, and one for him. He knocked on the trapdoor, before entering. Marinette was set up on her chaise, covered with multiple blankets. Her nose was bright red, and her eyes were closed.

"Marinette?" Adrien said, quietly, if she was asleep, he didn't want to wake her.

"Chat Noir?" Marinette said, since she hadn't opened her eyes, she just recognized the voice.

"No, It's adrien. I brought you soup." Adrien said, setting the soup down on a nearby table. He was surprised that she recognized Chat's voice, and wondered if she was a fan of him as a hero.

"Oh… Thank you…. You didn't have to come."

"I know I didn't have to, but I wanted to. How are you feeling?"

"Like someone is taking a hammer to my head."

"Hopefully your mother's soup will help, here." Adrien handed marinette one of the bowls, and she started to eat slowly. He started eating with her, and started telling her about how school was like that day. He was overwhelmed by how beautiful she looked, even when she was sick. And he couldn't help but mention it.

"You're beautiful, you know," He said, and she turned bright red.

"How can you say that now? I'm a mess right now," Marinette said, as she continued eating.

"You're still beautiful,"

"Even with my red nose, and messy hair."

"Yes. Your red nose is actually cute…." Adrien said, leaning down, and kissing the tip of her nose.
