Here is the second chapter! Please review!
The next day Marinette and Adrien both had to go to school. This wasn't a problem for Adrien since he didn't even remember what had happened.
Marinette on the other hand woke up sore everywhere. Especially in one certain area. Her pillow was damp from her crying herself to sleep the previous night. She new it wasn't Chat's fault but every time she closed her eyes she saw his dark orange ones shining in the dark.
She tried to stand up but flinched in pain. Tikki flew over and hugged her sweet miraculous holder's shoulder in an attempt to comfort. Marinette smiled weakly at the little ladybug and stood up gritting her teeth. She couldn't let anyone suspect that anything was up. She walked over to the mirror and noticed she had a bit of a limp. When she lifted her shorts slightly it revealed a large purple bruise and a few cuts.
She walked around until her limp was unnoticeable and got dressed. She walked down the stairs slowly and was greeted by her parents.
"Morning darling!" Called her mother from where she was icing a cake.
"Hello sweetie!" Said her father after handing a customer a box of macaroons.
"Hi" she responded tiredly.
Marinette quickly ate a croissant before grabbing her bag and walking toward school with a quick goodbye to her parents.
"Hey girl!" Alya joined her.
"Hi" she sighed.
"I got some really great footage of Cat Noir last night!" She exclaimed ignoring Marinette's lack of excitement. She pulled out her phone.
"I think Cat Noir can change his eye color or something!" She laughed playing the video. It was the exact scene that kept replaying in Marinette's head.
His eyes turning from bright happy green, to light yellow, to dark gold, to orange almost to red. Marinette shuddered. The breeze felt like his breath against her neck. The willow strands brushing across her face felt like his hand over her mouth.
She began to shake uncontrollably and her eyes grew wide. Once again she was lost under the wave, not sure which way was up.
"Girl! Are you okay?!" Exclaimed Alya finally breaching the spell and bringing Marinette back into the real world.
"Y-yeah s-sorry." She stuttered. Alya looked at her friend skeptically but decided not to press. She'd find out later.
As they arrived in class Adrien took his usual spot next to Chloe and pulled something out of his bag. It was the history paper. Marinette had completely forgotten about doing it. As the teacher called for them to pass up their papers Alya and Adrien both noticed that Marinette didn't have hers. Unfortunately so did Chloe.
"Ms. Nareta! Ms. Nareta!" She yelled.
"Marinette didn't do the paper!" Alya, Adrien and Marinette all sighed. Ms. Nareta turned toward Marinette.
"Is this true?" She asked sternly.
"Yes I-" she was cut off by Adrien.
"No, she did it but I didn't so I asked her to give me hers and being the really nice person she is she gave it to me." He explained quickly.
Alya, Chloe, Marinette, and most of all Ms. Nareta all looked astonished.
"In that case both of you need to go to the principal's office. This is considered cheating."
The two juniors got up and walked out the door. In the hallway Adrien murmured a soft apology.
"Thank you for trying." She responded genuinely as they walked.
When they reached the office they got a stern lecture about cheating and we're both suspended for three days.
Marinette sat in silence as she got a very extended lecture from her parents about cheating and getting suspended. She headed up stairs and began working on all the homework she had to have done Tikki suddenly remembered and reminded Marinette. She had to go on patrol tonight. With Cat Noir.
