In Marinette's bedroom...

Morning sunlight finally came as Marinette woke up from a surprisingly good night sleep. She slowly peeked down from her bed and found Uraraka asleep by Midoriya's side. She had her head resting on his chest, resting so peacefully. Midoriya looked a little better. He wasn't sweating anymore, so that was a good sign.

Watching Uraraka take care of him, reminded her of how much she cared for Adrien.

At least, until she was starting to develop feelings for Cat Noir.

She had just started to notice these romantic feelings as of recently. But she never had the guts to say anything about it.

Marinette fell back on her bed gently so she wouldn't disturb her little friend who was sleeping on her pillow. She grabbed her phone and noticed a message.

From Adrien!

She almost screamed and jumped up from her bed, but stopped herself just in time.

"What?! Ad-Adrien called ME?!" Marinette thought loudly.

Making sure not to wake anyone, she headed up to her balcony to listen to the message. Before she could take the call however, something else scared her even more.

Cat Noir was asleep on her balcony. He was spread out on the chair, snoring.

Marinette felt her cheeks heat up, so she tried to cool herself off by fanning her face.

"Oh my GOSH! Ca-Cat Noir is asleep on my balcony! Wha-What should I do?!"

She leaned in and poked at him to see if that would do anything. Nope, nothing.

Marinette sighed heavily and poked a few more times.

"Cat Noir... Wake up..."

Suddenly he jolted awake, and they bonked heads. They both groaned as they held their heads.

And then their eyes met.

Marinette at this point was just angry that he was sleeping on her balcony.

"Why did I have to fall for such an idiot?"

"Cat Noir, what're doing here on my balcony?" Marinette asked, "I-I have company over."

"Ma-Marinette, what am I doing here?" Cat Noir asked back, looking around.

"What do you mean, what am I doing here? This is my house, and I found you asleep just now."

He didn't even realize he had fallen asleep on her balcony last night. He just wanted get out of his house. This was the first place he could think of, and he knew why.

The girl he was falling for was standing in front of him. In her pajamas.

Marinette soon noticed what he was looking at, and she immediately turned bright red.

"Cat Noir, why are you here?" Marinette asked as she took a deep breath.

"Um, well... You see, my house was just getting crowded, and I had get out of there for some shut eye."

Then Marinette remembered Mr. Aizawa's weird questions about Felix and him possibly being Cat Noir. But she already knew that wasn't to be true considering she was with both Cat Noir and Felix when he deceived her.

"Well, I came up here to get back to a voicemail, so..."

Cat Noir couldn't believe this was happening to him. He had just left that message last night, and now he was right there with her. He was about to sneak off when Marinette stopped him by yanking his belt and pulled back in the chair without any effort.

Marinette listened to the voicemail, and her blushing grew even more. Her blue eyes widened and turned to Cat Noir.

He was looking like he wanted to get out of there, quickly.

After the message was over, she took a deep breath in and out.

"I have go to school, Cat Noir. You stay on my balcony, just don't go napping on my bed."

And just like that, she left to get ready for school.


In Marinette's Bedroom...

When Marinette made her way down from the balcony, Midoriya was finally waking up.

"Deku, you're awake!" Uraraka cried a little too loudly.

She gave him a big hug as Marinette walked over to check on him. He looked better, less sweaty and more rested. Barely awake though.

"Hey Midoriya," Marinette said sweetly, "It's good to see you awake."

Class 1-A started to wake up as well from Uraraka's cry out from sheer joy. Iida was the first to notice Midoriya and hustled over to him.

"Midoriya, I'm so glad to see you're doing well," Iida said as he noticed Uraraka was still holding onto him.

As everyone stood up to see their friend, Midoriya still hadn't said anything. He looked really confused, like he was dreaming.

"Midoriya, are you okay?" Kirishima asked him.

Midoriya looked like he was looking around for something or someone in particular. But, something wasn't quite right. Even Bakugo was unsettled by it.

"I... I don't know..." Midoriya mumbled to them, but then felt something coming up.

"Oh no," Marinette quickly grabbed her trashcan and held it for Midoriya.

And just like that, he threw up.

"Maybe he doesn't feel much better after all," Jirou said as she sat up from her blanket.

Uraraka rubbed his back as he kept throwing up. Luckily, he stopped much sooner than anyone expected.

"Well, that wasn't very pretty," Aoyama said sarcastically.

"Poor Midoriya," Ashido said under her breath.

Marinette opened a window to let in some fresh air. She was hoping Cat Noir wouldn't peek inside to see what the fuss was about. She didn't have time for him right now.

"Are you feeling, okay?" Marinette asked him.

"N-No... So-Something doesn't feel right..." Midoriya told her.

"Did Monarch do this to him?" Mr. Aizawa asked the heroine.

"Th-There's no way. He's never had that kind of power before," Marinette explained, "Wait a minute, could it have something to do with his quirk?"

That caught Bakugo's attention right away.

"Aoyama, you did say that you and Midoriya have similar quirks. If you use it too much, it hurts your body."

"Oui..." Aoyama said, worried for his friend.

Marinette looked at Midoriya, and then felt for her earrings. These people trusted her a lot, and she just brought them into her house without anyone's permission. She now knew this is the time to do something she's never done before.

"Everyone, I'd like you to meet someone that can help Midoriya," Marinette told them.

They all looked up at her, but Midoriya smiled. He was excited to meet her once again.

"Tikki, you can come out now! They're our friends."

Tikki peeked her head from the bed and flew down to her holder.

Class 1-A, except for Mr. Aizawa freaked out. The girls all squealed from her cuteness, and the guys looked like they wanted to grab a fly swatter.

"Everyone, this is my friend, Tikki," Marinette introduced as she gestured to her.

"Please to meet you everyone," Tikki said as she bowed, "It's very nice meet people from a different Japan."

"Wha-What the hell is that thing?! I-It can talk?!" Bakugo cried, freaking out the most.

Class 1-A started laughing at him. They'd never seen him so freaked out by something so small and cute.

"Awww, Bakugo's scared of a little cutie pie," Ashido said as she went to pet her.

"She's a Kwami, she's what powers up my Miraculous. All of the Miraculous has one, even Cat Noir," Marinette explained.

That caught Mr. Aizawa's attention.

"So that's what I saw yesterday with Adrien Agreste," He thought.

"It's nice to see again, Deku," Tikki said as she gave her sick friend a hug.

Everyone stared at him, surprised that he already knew the Kwami. Midoriya's eyes sparkled with how cute she was. Seeing her alone made him feel much better already.

"So, since Midoriya is still sick from the Akuma attack, that means I can use my Lucky Charm to heal him."

"Really? You can do that?" Iida asked her.

"Well, I only figured out now because we never got the chance de-akumatize her. Monarch had taken the power away from her. Queen Wasp did this to Deku, so I should be able to use my Lucky Charm to heal him."

Midoriya nodded at her approval.

"Tikki, Spots On! Lucky Charm!"

A piece of paper floated down to Ladybug and took a look at it. It was a picture of a superhero with red and black polka dotted boarder she'd never seen before. He looked big and tan with pointy blond hair that looked like bunny ears. He was big and muscular, wearing a red, blue and white spandex suit. To top it all off, he wore a big smile that brightened up even her day.

She looked up Midoriya and realized to give it to him.

"Does picture mean anything to you?" Ladybug asked him.

He took the picture and was almost in tears instantly. Ladybug freaked out and worried she'd made it worse.

"Ah! I'm sorry, Deku. I didn't mean to--"

"No, no it's fine," Midoriya interrupted.

"What is it, Deku?" Uraraka asked him as she tried to take a look.

"I-It's a picture of AllMight."

He showed it to his classmates and almost everyone felt the same way. They missed him. A lot. Along with the rest of their class.

"Who's AllMight?" Ladybug asked.

Midoriya almost jumped out of the lounge chair to gush about him, but held himself back to not make himself sick again.

"You know what? You can tell me when you're feeling better."

With one last look at the picture, he gave it back to Ladybug.

"Miraculous Ladybug!"

She threw it the air and the ladybugs swarmed around Midoriya and then disappeared. The difference is that he looked less pale and no bags under his eyes.

"Deku, you feel any better?" Uraraka asked him.

He went to stand up and felt... great. Better than great. He felt fantastic.

"Wow, that Lucky Charm worked like a charm! I feel awesome!" Midoriya cried, "Thank you, Ladybug!"

"You're welcome."

Suddenly, everyone could hear the bell ringing from across the street.

"Oh no! I'm going to be late for school! Uh, Tikki Spots Off!" Ladybug detransformed and grabbed her school bag, "I'll be back. Make yourselves at home!"

Then she left them in her bedroom, leaving everyone looking dumbfounded.

"She just left in her pajamas."


Outside of School...

After running back inside to put on some clothes, Marinette finally made it to school. Her best friend, Alya Cesaire was waiting for her, looking at her phone.

"Marinette, finally you're here! I can't keep covering for you, girl," Alya called out as they headed inside.

"I'm sorry," Marinette said out of breath, "I was busy with... you know who."

"What, you mean the heroes in training?"

"Alya, Monarch is after one of them. We have to be quiet," She told her while looking for a certain limo to pull up soon.

"Looking Adrien, I see?"

Marinette almost lost her footing, but caught herself in time.

"Wha-What?! No, I-I just... He uh... Might've left me... a voicemail."

Alya's caramel brown eyes sparkled with enthusiasm and practically leaped out of her sneakers.

"What? Really, that's awesome! What did he say?" Alya asked her.

Marinette felt embarrassed that she even brought it up in the first place. She had enough going on as it is.

"Alya, not now. Please, I don't even like him like that anymore. I just wanted to know if you've seen him yet."

"No, I haven't. I don't think he's come to school yet."

Marinette didn't have romantic feelings for him anymore, but that didn't mean she couldn't worry about him. She hoped it didn't have anything to do with his father.

"I just hope he's okay."

"Don't worry it about so much, Marinette. He might just be running late like you."

Marinette rolled her eyes, and they headed inside to get to class.

Another chapter! Midoriya didn't feel good for another reason, I'm sure you guys will know why. It'll come up soon enough.

Also, I loved the idea of Cat Noir falling asleep on Marinette's balcony! LOL

More to come soon!
