Marinette's pov/thoughts:

Does he love me? Did Adrien really just admit that he loves me? Does Adrien love me?!

"Mari?" Adrien sleepily mumbled.

"I thought you were going to sleep," I say, still playing with his soft hair.

He put a hand on my back and pulled himself close, resting his head on my chest, "Do you love me back? Are you in love with me, too, Mari?"

"You're not going to remember any of this tomorrow. Ask me again then." I smile, at a loss of words, all I can do is kiss Adrien's cheek then rest my head on his while still hugging and playing with his hair. This is the type of comfort that you can only get from the person you love, right?

"If I won't remember, why not answer now?" He sighs.

"I've always loved you, idiot. It's hard to talk about since I fell for you pretty easily."

I felt the breath from his chuckle on my neck, "But, are you in love with me?"

"Alcohol makes you chatty." I giggle.

Adrien leaned in closer and placed a small peck on my chest, near where my necklace sat, "I love you."

I want to cry right now. There's nothing more I'd ever wanted to hear him say. Maybe it's just because he's drunk but, I believe him. I believe him completely.

He looks so peaceful while he sleeps. I really hope his dad doesn't barge in here in the morning. That would be pretty awkward.

"Marinette!" A whispering voice says.

I sit up and see Tikki popping out of my purse on Adrien's piano, she's holding up my phone and looks worried. I gently got away from Adrien's grasp and tiptoed over to her.

"What's going on?" I ask.

"Akuma alert. Luka's been blowing up your phone, too." Tikki frantically says.

"Shit. We'll leave in a sec, I need to tell Adrien something."

"Please hurry, Marinette." She whispers.

I put my purse on and walk over to him. Though I don't want to wake him, I can't just leave without saying anything.

"Adrien..." I whisper.

He rolled over to face me and rubbed his eyes, "Hey, Mari... What's up? Is everything alright?"

"My- My parents want me home... I told them I was out with Alix but, never checked in." I hate to lie but, I knew things were going to be like this when I started dating Adrien.

"Yeah, sure... I can drive you." He yawns.

"No, my dad is on his way. I'll call you tomorrow, okay?" I really hate lying.

"Okay? I- I Uhm... Love you." Adrien stutters. It's only been an hour since he fell asleep and I know he's still drunk. What if he really doesn't remember any of this tomorrow?

After he laid back down, he was dead asleep and I knew the best thing would be to transform and sneak out the bathroom window. I shut the door and Tikki flew out of my purse and hovered over the sink, "We still have so much to catch up on." She smiled.
