Marinette groaned as she woke up. She rolled from her left to her right side as she wrapped her arms around her stomach. It felt like something was stabbing her from the inside and tried to tear her into pieces. She turned over to her stomach, burying her face in her pillow as she let out another groan in pain. She knew exactly what time of the month it was and she was totally not happy with the timing.

Marinette and her boyfriend Adrien were on a city trip to Germany, they had arrived the day before in the afternoon in Berlin. They had been ice skating at the ice rink that had been put up by the Neptunbrunnen that night and enjoyed some of the German snacks before they went back to their hotel.

Today they were supposed to go to the Christmas market in the city, enjoying a cup of Glühwein while walking around the market stands filled with Christmas stuff. However those plans would most likely get ruined due to Marinette's early Period.

She already felt crappy because of her period, but the fact that it started a week sooner made her feel even more like crap. She really wanted to have a great trip together with her boyfriend, especially since this was the first time Adrien went to A Christmas market as well as it was the first time that he would go to another country without business to attend for his father's company. She wanted it to be perfect, she wanted this trip to be the best trip ever for him, but Mother Nature had to ruin it with the unwanted week of the month.

She slowly slipped out of bed as she had to get her medicines out of her toiletries bag that was put in the bathroom of their hotel room. She slowly walked to the bathroom with a headache she had never asked for to get as a package deal with her period cramps and her low energy level. She needed her ibuprofen, at least then this all would be more bearable.

She opened her toiletries bag when she found it in the bath room. Digging through all the makeup, hair ties, hair brush and more she found the carton box of the medicines she needed. However when she opened it is discovered that it was completely empty.

Annoyed she walked back to the bed, she slipped back under the covers and closed her eyes again. Hopefully she would fall asleep soon, just so she wouldn't feel the pain anymore and hopefully sleep the headache away. However it was no use to close her eyes as the cramps kept bothering her. It was frustrating that she was in pain, as well as the fact there wasn't any progress in feeling better and the her low energy level didn't really help either. She kept rolling around her side of the bed, trying to lie down in a certain way that wouldn't make her feel like she was about to die of the pain.

"Marinette, what's wrong? Why are you so restless at five in the morning?" Adrien ask still half asleep.

It was only then that Marinette realized that her boyfriend was lying next to her on the bed and that she had woke him up by tossing and turning around in bed.

"I think I just got my period." Marinette said weakly due to the pain she was trying to deal with without medicines.
"Did you take your medicines?" He asked.
"I don't have anything left…"

Adrien grabbed his phone that lay next to his pillow and turned it on. He squeezed his eyes shut because of the bright light. He slowly opened his eyes more, when they got used to the brightness, before he unlocked his phone. He opened Google and searched for a drugstore nearby.

"There is a drugstore nearby that opens in an hour. I can get your medicines by then." Adrien said.
"An hour…" Marinette whined. "How am I supposed to survive that…"

Adrien pressed a kiss on top of her head before he went out of bed. He then walked towards his backpack that stood on the ground a few meters from the bed and took a hot pack out of it. He squeezed it so it would start to get warm and then walked over to Marinette's side of the bed.

"Take this." He said as he gave it to her.
"Weren't the hot packs for when we're cold outside?" She asked as she took the hot pack from Adrien and placed it against her stomach under the covers.
"They were, but that doesn't matter, I'd rather have cold hands then to see you in pain."
"Thank you."

Adrien knelt down next to the bed so he was one the same eye level as Marinette. He smiled softly at Marinette as he ran his fingers through her messy loose hair. She tried to smile back at him, but the pain and the guilt of ruining their Christmas together didn't make it possible to do so.

"I'll get your Ibuprofen as soon as possible, okay." he said softly.
"I'm sorry I'm ruining this day with all this stuff…" She said softly with a crack in her voice.
"Hey, there is no need to apologize, those things happens."
"But it's the first time you went on a trip that isn't business related… and the first time you went to a Christmas market in general."

The tears were falling down her cheeks, she always got more emotional when she had to deal a full week with her period. Adrien knew about that and made sure to be there for her. It was sweet but sometimes it made Marinette feel like a bother as her boyfriend was the type to drop everything just to make sure to make her feel better.

"It's okay, we can always come back next year."

Marinette yawned as she felt her eyelids get heavy. She always had a soft spot when someone ran their finger through her hair, it made her relax and made her fall asleep when she was tired. Before she knew it she had fallen asleep.

Adrien continued a little longer before he stopped running his fingers through her hair. He pressed a soft kiss on her forehead before he stood back up. He was glad that he could get Marinette back to sleep, this way she wouldn't feel the pain for a little longer.

He walked towards the closet to get an outfit for the day and then walked towards the bathroom. Thirty minutes later he got back into the room, completely dressed and all freshen up for the day. He was pleased to see that Marinette was still asleep, as it was now 5:55am. He hoped she would be able to stay asleep when he went out to get her medicines. He hate the thoughts of her being alone and in pain.

Adrien put on his shoes and his coat before he went over to Marinette one more time. He placed a soft kiss on top of her head before he headed out, phone with his hotel key card and credit card in hand. The walk to the drugstore wasn't that far, it was around five minutes long. He got helped right away as he was the first customer to arrive at the store. He paid for it before he went back to the hotel.

When he got back in the hotel he placed a plastic bottle with water from his bag and placed it on her nightstand together with the ibuprofen. He then took his seat on the bed and watched Marinette sleep. He didn't have the heart to wake her up, after all he knew how low her energy level got with her period. He also knew how much she loved to drink hot chocolate, so once the Starbucks opens he would go there to get her some Salted caramel brownie hot chocolate. However that would take a while as it opens in one and a half hour.

An hour had passed when Marinette woke up again, feeling the pain right again. She sat up right and groaned as she looked around. Her boyfriend placed some of the pillows between her back and the wall so she could lean against it. Adrien then leaned close to her pressing a kiss on her cheek before he took the medicines and bottle of water from her night stand.

"I got your medicines." He said as he took one pill out of the package and gave it to her.
"Thank you." She said before she put the pill into her mouth and took the bottle of water from Adrien.

She took a sip of the water and swallowed the pill. She was so thankful to have someone like Adrien.

"What time is it," She asked, she had no idea how long she had slept.
"It's 7:10am." He answered after he looked at the time that was displayed on his phone. "Starbucks will open soon, so I will be able to get your favorite seasonal drink."
"That would be lovely."
"Is there anything else you need? Do you have enough of supplies?"
"I got enough of it to go through the time were here. So you don't have to buy anything like that."
"Okay."
"You can already go to Starbucks… I'm kind of longing for a large cup of Salted caramel brownie hot chocolate."
"Will you be alright?"
"I will just wait here till my medicines start working and then go take a shower. I'll take my phone with me so I can call when needed."

Adrien nodded before he kissed her on her lips and headed out again.

He got at the Starbucks when they just opened the store. He got inside and placed his order of twenty large Salted caramel brownie hot chocolates and a large Chai tea latte. The barista made his order and placed every cup into a bag after Adrien had paid for it. Once that all was done he got back to the hotel, holding four bags.

Marinette in the meantime was able to have a quick shower to freshen herself up. She walked out of the bathroom wearing a pajama shorts and one of Adrien's shirts when Adrien opened the door to their hotel room.

"What did you buy?" She giggled as she looked at all the bags her boyfriend placed on the desktop that stood in the room.
"Twenty salted caramel brownie hot chocolate for you and a chai tea latte for myself." He said like it was the most normal thing in the world.
"So many?"

Marinette just stood there dumb founded, she hadn't even ask him to buy so much. She didn't even know if she would be able to drink so much.

"Yeah, you drink a lot of this stuff… especially when it's your first day. And since we got a microwave to reheat it, I thought I would take more than one with me. That way I don't have to go there multiple times."
"But you just paid one hundred something for hot chocolate."
"It's alright, don't worry about and just enjoy your drink."

Adrien walked over to her and gave her one large cup to Marinette. Marinette carefully took a sip right away, closing her eyes while enjoying the flavor of the drink. Adrien was putting the other drinks into the fridge so he wouldn't get bad. He then took his own drink and walked to Marinette to guide her to the bed again.

"Let me at least pay half of it." She said as she sat down on the bed.
"That's not going to happen, don't even try to transfer the money to me because I will just transfer it back to you again."
"You shouldn't spoil me so much." She said with a giggle.
"But I love spoiling you from time to time."

Adrien placed a kiss on her temple, causing Marinette to giggle even more.

"Do you want to continue that series we were started on last week?" Adrien asked.
"We're staying in?" She asked.
"Of course, I've seen you like this before after all. You might feel alright now due to the medicines, but it can make a 180 degrees turn out of nowhere."
"You don't mind it to stay in?"
"I don't. Celebrating Christmas with you, makes my Christmas already perfect."

Marinette Hugged Adrien tightly, she loved him so much. He was so sweet and loving towards her, sometimes she even wondered what she did to even deserve someone like him. She felt her eyes get wet by the tears that began to form in the corner of her eyes.

"I love you… I love you so much…" she said with a sob, her hormones making her more emotional then she intended to be.
"I love you too." He chuckled as he ran his finger through her hair.
