TW: abuse, violence, self harm

Adrian walks towards the bathroom in his room looking at himself in the mirror making him nauseous, he wraps his wrist in bandages feeling numb he walks out of the bathroom and towards the closet

"Plagg?" He says quietly approaching the closet, he opens it and sees the Kwami staring at him

"Why'd you do that?" He says "Adrian you're better then that"

"I know!....I'm sorry Plagg" Adrian walks away from him and starts getting dressed "Let's go...we have school"

~~~~~
"Hi Adrian!!" Marinnete says from a distance

"Hi" Adrian replies back coldly

"What's wrong" She says getting closer to him

"Nothing, just a bit tired"

"Oh! Did you enjoy the movie!?"

"Yup" he says as he walks away towards class

"We should go again then!" Mari says running after him

"Don't think I'll be able to" he says entering the class and going straight in the back sitting next to Luka

"It's taken"

"What?" Adrian says finally realizing there's someone next to him

"I said..it's taken...I don't wanna sit next to you"

"....tch" Adrian says looking unbothered

"Be nice Luka" Mari says

"But I saved it for you..not him"

"It's fine! I have to sit in the front anyways" Mari says walking towards the front and sitting down

Adrian stares at Luka without realizing and gets lost in his own thoughts

"It....kinda hurts how he treats me outside of the mask....I wanna wear it...it'd be nice to talk to Luka right now"

"Why are you staring at me" Luka says with an annoyed expression

"No reason" Adrian says looking away

"Luka treats chat Noir like his world, with care but treats me like trash...for reasons I don't know of"

a few seconds later Adrian stands up and walks out
"Adrian Agreste!" The teacher yells in disbelief "your parent WILL be contacted" but even after these words Adrian does not turn back around and continues to walk down the hall, Luka stares in disbelief

"whoa...what happened to Mr. Perfect!?"

~~~~~
Adrain walks out of the school and walks down the street it takes a while for him to realize it's raining but he continues walking anyways, a lot of fans come up to him as he walks asking for pictures, autographs, and even dates but he just walks away without saying anything he continues walking in the rain with his head down until finally he reaches home

"Young master what are you doing here so early!"

"Master welcome"

"Young master! You're soaked!!"

Adrian ignores the servants and continues walking up the stairs where he meets his favorite servant

"Young Master? Why are you home? First class isn't even done yet are you sick!?" He says touching Adrian on the forehead and neck checking for a fever
"Get off me Liam!" Adrian says shocking the young servant making him move his hands in a matter of seconds

"I-I'm sorry young master"

".....sorry" Adrian says looking at Liam apologetically " I just didn't wanna be in class, I'm alright"

"Young master....Master will be home soon and he will know..."

"Don't worry about it" Adrian says looking at Liam with a smile

"That's hard to do young master, what if he hurts you again? Will I be able to step in again?" Liam says looking at Adrian with worry in his eyes

"I'll be fine" Adrian says "I just need rest...don't let anyone in my ro--! Liam! Did anyone enter my room today!?" Says a panicked Adrian "I forgot to clean!"

"No master" Liam says looking at Adrian in confusion "is something the matter?"

"No, No I'm fine!" Adrian says rushing to his room and locking it

Adrian quickly cleans and changes out of the drenched clothes and climbs on the bed

"Are you okay?" Plagg says

"I'm fine, just tired"

"You should go to the doctor...you lost a lot of blood yesterday"

"....first of all no I hate the doctors, second of all I'm not allowed to go to the doctors....remember?" Plagg nods and lays on a pillow next to him

"Good night Adrian"

"Night"

"ADRIAN" "OPEN THIS DOOR!!"

Adrian jumps up as if he was having a nightmare and sits up on the bed trying to confirm if it's a dream or reality

"ADRIAN!!!!"
The anger in his father's voice confirms he is no longer dreaming and he's back to reality

"Y-yes father! I'm coming!" Adrian says jumping off the bed "Plagg! Hide!" He whispers before rushing towards the door and opening it

"H-hello fathe-!"
Before Adrian could finish the sentence he gets slapped across the face

"HOW DARE YOU!? WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!? THIS IS MY REPUTATION YOU ARE PLAYING WITH!!" Gabriel says screaming in Adrian's face

"I know father...I-I was just tired"

"TIRED!? What? Did you not sleep? We're you uncomfortable?! You've got a warm house, great food, an amazing room, and the best bed! What could have possibly made you uncomfortable YOU UNGRATEFUL BRAT!!" As Gabriel finishes this sentence he hits Adrian once more, the unexpected hit from his father makes Adrian lose balance and go back a couple steps, too shocked to react and look away he stares at his father in the eyes with shock

"Don't look at your elders in the eyes you brat!!!" His father says hitting him even harder making Adrian scream in pain
