I love you

Chapter Thirteen

Warning ⚠️ Child getting kicked out.
Lots of angst in this chapter. If you are uncomfortable with this please skip this chapter.

'Why's he hanging out with her?' Dahlia thought.
Making her way up the stairs to where the girl was dragging Martin. When she made it up the stairs, Dahlia decided to hide in the shadows. What she hears surprises her....

    "Did you see how realistic that bruise was?" Alya asks, Martin.
    "I know. She must have watched a tutorial on youtube." Martin states, laughing a little.
    "Really though, she's becoming out of hand. What's next? She's gonna tell your parents?" Alya said.
    "My parents will believe her when Ladybug and Chat Noir start dating." Martin said.
    Martin and Alya laughed at this. Not so long ago Martin confessed to Alya about him being Ladybug. At first she didn't believe him, but Tikki came out of hiding for proof. Once Alya saw that Martin was the one and only, Ladybug Martin told Alya everything. Also the part that the miraculous is designed to one gender, and that Chat Noir is a female.
    "Just promise me that you'll be careful alright?" Alya said, seriousness lacing her voice.
                                      "I promise."

*After School*

Martin began walking home, but just something told him that something bad is going to happen. He had a gut feeling that he shouldn't go through the front. Going through the back Martin makes it up to his room. Once in his room he looks around trying to figure out what this feeling was. Suddenly a yelling echoed through the small apartment, and his parents rushed into his room. "Why the hell did you do that?!" His mom yelled at him.

"Do what? I don't understand." Martin said, confused.

"You know exactly what you did! Bullying is not welcomed in this house!" Now his dad was yelling.

"I raised you better than this!" His mom added.

"You will apologize to Lila or you're out of this house!"

Upon hearing that name my eyes widened. Lila told my parents, and they believed her. Tears swelled up in my eyes. "Fine, I'll leave." I said, and started packing my stuff. I made sure to only get the stuff I bought for myself, and not the stuff my so called parents bought me.

I went downstairs and left, tears streaming down my face. Getting my phone out of my pocket, I call Alya. Once she answered I told her everything and if I can come over. Alya said yes, so I started making my way over to her house.

Upon getting to her house, I knocked on the door. Alya's mom, Marlena, opened the door. "Hello Martin, come in! Alya's in her room."

I nodded my head in understandment and made my way to Alya's room. I knocked on the door and made my present known. She opened the door and brought me inside. "Tell me everything." Alya said, sitting me on her bed.

So I explained to her again but in more depth of what happened. Telling her how my parents kicked me out because of a lie Lila came up with. I asked her if I could stay here for a while until I found an apartment. Of course she said yes, but Alya had to ask her mom first.

After getting confirmation from her mom, Alya said that they have a small mattress that I can use. Also that I would be in Alya's room.

"Thank you for letting me stay here, Mrs. Cesaire." I thanked Alya's mom.

"It's no problem Martin, and please call me Marlena." She said.

The day went by fast at Alya's. Soon I was getting out the mattress, while talking with Alya. Then my phone went off. Alya got it before I could. "Ooooo" She coued, "Dahlia's calling." She teased me. I grabbed my phone embarrassed, "Shut Up!"

I answered the phone, making sure it's not on speaker. "Hey Dahlia!" I said.

"PUT IT ON SPEAKER!PUT IT ON SPEAKER!PUT IT ON SPEAKER!" Alya chanted over and over, until I put it on speaker.

"Sorry about the noise." I said, glaring at Alya. She just laughed.

"It's fine. What are you doing?" Dahlia asked me.

"I just finished setting my bed." I said, looking at the bed as if showing her.

"I had a question about what happened at school today." Dahlia stated.

I gulped down a lump that formed in my throat. 'She doesn't mean about the Lia incident' I thought. "What's your question?" I asked, looking at Alya. She gave me a comforting look.

"Why was Alya dragging you out of a crowd?" She asked.

"Oh, um.. Some girl made a lie about me, so her friends were backing her up and yelling at me." I said, sitting on the mattress criss-cross applesauce.

"What was the lie?" "She said I punched her."

"..."

Dahlia Third Person POV-

"..."

Dahlia was speechless. She couldn't believe what she heard. A girl made a lie about Martin? About him hurting her. Just that one sentence made Dahlia boil up with anger. This girl is going to get what she deserves. And Dahlia is going to make sure she does.

"She. What." Dahlia asked, well more like stated.

"Yeah.. That's why Alya was dragging me away. To get me away from the crowd." Martin said.

"Is this the first time she has done this? Or is this a recurring bullying?" Dahlia asked, trying to get answers.

"Recurring." Martin answered, sounding uncomfortable talking about it.

"I'll make sure she stops."
