Chapter Text
Adrien slumped into the classroom, exhaustion radiating off of him. As soon as he reached the desk he and Nino shared, he laid his head down on his arms.
“You okay, man?” Nino inquired as he reached his seat.
“Didn’t get much sleep last night.” He and Ladybug had been up til early morning dealing with an akuma.
“What happened to Adrien?”, Alya asked as she and Marinette arrived.
“Didn’t sleep well, apparently.”, Nino answered his girlfriend.
“Mari too. Luckily, we brought coffee!”
“Hey, don’t you mean I brought the coffee?” Marinette complained. She looked tired, but a lot more energized than Adrien, the human doormat.
“Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Hey, Nino, wake up Adrien so he can have some of whatever rocket fuel Mari brought.”
“Mmmph?”, Adrien mumbled. Nino was shaking him awake (thankfully they had arrived early to class so the teacher wasn’t present.) and he was weary and frazzled. “What’s going on?”
“I uhhh b-brought coffee. From my favorite cafe. Do you want some? You HAVE to have some. I INSIST. You look really tired. Did you get any sleep at all? You DO look really good, though. Did I say you look good?!? Have some coffee!!!!” Marinette rambled as she all but shoved the cup at him.
“You… brought me coffee?” Adrien was still trying to wake up, and that was all he’d managed to process from Marinette’s stammered babbling.
“Well, all of us, but yeah. That’s pretty much the gist.” Alya confirmed, twisting in her seat to look at him.
Adrien stared at her, gaping, before he snatched the coffee and took a long sip. Immediately, he gained the ‘I’m wired on caffeine and incredibly grateful’ look as Alya had termed it. Putting it down with significantly more energy than he’d had moments ago, his eyes locked onto Marinette. “Marry me.”
Marinette.exe has shut down.
“... Marinette?”
“Meep.”
“I think you broke her.”
