MARINETTE POV:

I watched as they slowly made their way to each other, closing the gap between them with every step.

When they were inches apart, the feeling of jealousy and betrayal had taken control of my senses. I stood up, making myself known.

"What the fuck is going on here?" I shouted.

Both of them stumbled apart, both mortified from being watched.

Chloe quickly buttoned up her blouse and headed for the door.

I glared in her direction, "Chole!" I scolded.

She skid to a stop, and yelped in fear, "M-Marinette! I-I can-"

"Chloe, I am not in the fucking mood! " I warned on the verge of tears.

She nodded, and scurried back over to where she was.

Even though I was mad at Chloe for obvious reasons, I turned my attention to Luka, and those emotions deepened severely.

"What the fuck, Luka..." I seethed.

The whole room went deadly silent and Luka met my glare, not backing down.

"Marinette..." He sneered.

"W-why did you do this, Luka? W-what did I do to deserve this?" I asked, struggling to keep the lump in my throat from bursting.

He scoffed, "Don't play dumb! You know exactly why! And you're not even trying to hide the fact!" He exclaimed, turning his attention to Adrien.

I looked back and forth between the two man with utter shock, "You thi- you think that Adrien and I- why the hell would you think that once in your goddamn life?" I practically screamed.

"Then why'd you run off hand in hand to a secret room, that only he knows about? Where no one would find unless they actually looked! Use your brain, Marinette! Why'd you think he'd bring you here? To watch a Disney movie and bond over feelings? No! He brought you here because he wanted to-"

"Shut your goddamn mouth, right this fucking second! I know that our past has not been the best, but unlike you, I tried to make her shitty day better, even if it was only just a bit! And I was doing so by bringing her to a place that I remember as a very relaxing place to be alone, watch a movie, and look at the goddamn stars! It may not be perfect, but nothing is perfect! My life has been a hellhole filled to the brim with shi-"

"Oh sure, daddy's boy had the worst fucking life known to man! With his rich living and a servant at his every beckon call! Oh, but I forgot that mommy's dead, and daddy's the super-fucking-villain and-"

He was cut off but a swift punch to the jaw, "Don't you dare bring my mother into this you sick, sick bastard!" He bellowed.

Luka stumbled back at the blow, and spat some blood on the tiled floor "Not a bad punch Agreste, I'll give you that! But you missed..." He explained.

Luka quickly came at a confused Adrien, and whacked him right in the nose. I heard Adrien double over in Pain, hissing as he clutched his nose. He looked back up to Luka with a glare of pure hatred etched into his face. His nose and mouth were covered in blood from the hit, and his nose was starting to bruise.

Before Adrien could have another go at him, I took off my heels and threw them to the side. Adrien made a lunge towards him with his fist in the air, but I grabbed his arm and twisted it, causing him to surrender. 

Luka had a smug look on his face, as if he had won. But I quickly wiped that look right off his face by sweeping my leg under his feet, and he collapsed to the floor with a loud thud. I released Adrien's arm and walked in-between the two men with a glare on my face.

"What the hell has gotten into you? First you two got into a fight over me, then you started to verbally harm one another, and then things got physical! I'm sorry if I hurt you guys, but I honestly don't give a fuck!" I shouted.

They both gazed at me with awe struck stares, "I know that I might be asking a bit too much to ask and it might come off as selfish, but can you all please get along or get out of each other's faces just for tonight? My day has been bad enough, and I don't want your bullshit to ruin it even more for me! Luka, Adrien knew how shitty of a day I'd been having, so he tried to cheer me up with a walk down memory lane! And it fucking worked! I was disconnected from a reality that treated me like I was a grain of salt, and felt happy! I haven't felt truly happy in a hot minute, and all these emotions have been boiling inside of me, and today, they decided to come out all at once, and it has been hell! And you cheating on me with Chole was the cherry on top of my shit of a day! If you felt like something was happening with me and him, come talk to me first, goddammit! Don't stoop so low as to cheat!" I ranted.

I took a breath before continuing, "So I have made the decision that I'm not gonna go with you to the Gala! This has happened before with your acts of jealousy and lust, and I can't trust that this wont happen again, and I don't want to take that risk! And please stay out of my face!" I explained.

"Get out, Luka..." I sneered through clenched teeth.

"Marinette, I-"

"I said get the fuck out of my face!" I shouted, tears threatening my eyes.

He sighed in defeat, picked up his jacket and left the room.

He closed the door, leaving Adrien and I alone in the silence.

After a few moments, I started to break down. I fell to my knees, and put my hands over my eyes sobbing uncontrollably. All these emotions of hate, guilt, anxiety, betrayal, and worthlessness washed over me at the same time, making it unbearable to contain any longer.

"Hey, Marinette...do you want me to leave, or-"

I cut him off, by wrapping him in a hug. Sure he was my enemy, but he was there for me when somebody that I thought I could trust wasn't. I sobbed into his shoulder, gripping to his blazer, not wanting him to leave me.

"W-why does shit always hit the fan when I'm in these situations?" I wondered out loud.

He sighed and smoothed my hair, "I don't know, but I truly am sorry..." He soothed.

I released the hug and wiped my nose with the back of my hand, "T-thanks for everything Adr-" I cut myself off with a shaky gasp, "Y-your nose! I-it's still bleeding!" I observed.

He shrugged, "I'm fine! As long as your okay, that's all that matters!" He stated.

I smiled and embraced him in another lingering hug, not wanting it to end.

"Thank you..."

A/N

Sup Bugaroos? I hope that you enjoyed this chapter! I didn't like writing the two best bois fighting each other, or having angsty Luka, but it's for the sake of the plot! (I have to keep reminding myself this fact constantly) But I hope I made up for it with the sweet and heartfelt Adrienette content! Regardless of the situation, I hope that you found this chapter a least somewhat entertaining!

Please don't forget to vote, comment, add, and share this book with fellow MLB stans!

Fact 49: Summer is officially here! (School is out, which means hopefully more chapters!)
