"Why is this peasant in my presence Adrien"
"Father she's not a peasant. Whats wrong with you?"
"After what happened to her parents I'd say so son. Why are you hanging out with someone like this. She better not be your girlfriend!" Gabriel spits insult after insult at me. My heart breaking into two right in that moment. I look at Adrien and sprint out of the giant doors of his mansion.
"Marinette wait" he runs after me, but I don't stop until I'm far from that place. I collapse onto the ground, my breath shaky from running and crying.
"Mari-"

don't you know I'm no good for you?

"NO! Don't you know I'm no good for you!?"

I've learned to loose you can't afford to

"I've learned to loose you can't afford to Adrien. Your father hates me. You probably hate me too!" A look of betrayal covers his face quickly
"Really Mari you think I hate you?"
I see the black and purple butterfly fluttering over, my emotions immediately change my expression drops.
Adrien
"Tikki spots on!" I don't think about the consequences, just saving Adrien. I transform quickly before the butterfly gets close I have time to purify it.
"Time to de-evilize" I run up to catch the butterfly with my yoyo but my side snags on a sharp bar...

Tore my shirt to stop you bleedin'

I still manage to catch the butterfly before it gets to him. I protected him.
"Shit" I won't be able to fix this, it's not a horrible wound but my skin is exposed. I finally get the chance to look over at Adrien, so many expressions on his face.
"Tikki spots off"
"Oh Marinette this is so bad" she's talking about revealing myself, and my wound.
"I-im sorry Tikki I had to save him" I wince at the pain as I put pressure on my wound.
"It'll be okay.."
"Adrien..?" He looks angry still, not moving an inch from where he was.
"Jesus christ Mari..." He walks up to me looking at the cut.
"You can't tell anyone. Promise?"
"That's the least I can do" he looks at his phone realizing the time.

But nothin' ever stops you leavin'

"I gotta go, photoshoot.."
"Seriously?! I'm bleeding out and you're leaving? We're not even gonna talk about anything?"
"Another time Mari...just please" he says in an annoyed voice and walks away.
"I'm wounded from saving you and you walk away!?" I'm so frustrated with his attitude. But I have nothing to say.

Quiet when I'm comin' home I'm on my own

I walk home in silence, Tikki respecting that silence and chose not to speak.

I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that...

The silence is so loud, even though there's not a sound. Just the breeze, my footsteps, my heavy breathing, and cars in the distance.

I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that

Silence has become one of the most uncomfortable things I've experienced...but I could lie and say I like it like that...
"Tikki can you grab the peroxide?"
"Sure thing Marinette"
"Thank you Tikki, for everything."
I bite my lip at the pain, the peroxide sizzling on my open wound, a tear slipping down my cheek, but I don't make a sound. I wrap my side up quickly wanting to go to sleep as soon as possible. I'm the one working the bakery now after the accident..

The annoying alarm clock beeps non stop, I groan pressing the button to shut the damn thing off. I get up and feel a burning sensation below my rib. I yell out in pain
"Marinette!"
"I'll be fine Tikki, just sore that's all"
I slowly get ready, my wound slowing me down but I keep going. My thoughts lead back to last night, Adrien knows my secret... And he was being a complete dick. But what should I expect?
"Hey Marinette, I'd like to order some croissants please, 3 to be exact" one of the regulars comes in making me smile.
"Also um, I'm sorry about your parents...are you running the place alone" I wince at the pain, not the physical pain.
"Uh thanks, yeah, gotta carry the business on" I give a half smile, people frequently mentioning the death of my parents I've gotten used to it. I hand her the bag with her delicious croissants.
"Goodluck Marinette, I'll definitely be back"
"Thank you ma'am" I smile and wave to her as she leaves the store.
The day going by smoothly, the occasional nasty customer but that's nothing. My cut giving me hell but I deal with it.
"Well Ms. Dupain-Cheng I'd like one croissant please" I look over not expecting him to visit.
"Sure Agreste." I mutter grabbing his croissant and practically throwing it at him.
"Hey that wasn't very Ladybug of you" he laughs
"Oh shut up" I roll my eyes.
"Speaking of that.."
