Red Pixie

Movie Set Lies

~Jason's POV~

"Holy shit! What was in that?" I asked Batman.

"It was the normal formula," he replied looking at the limp girl in my arms.

"That is not the normal formula. None of us have ever had that reaction to it. Are you sure Red Robin did everything right?"

"It was tweaked slightly due to the new formula that Scarecrow used, but it is very similar."

"I swear to God... If anything happens to Mari, it will be on you and Red Robin," Adrien growled checking Marinette's pulse.

"She will be ok right?" Robin asked also by her side.

"Of course," he replied now sounding a little uncertain. "You two get her to bed. She'll be much better in the morning."

"I hope you are right Father."

I picked Marinette up bridal style and began walking back to her room with Adrien following.

"Like Blondie said, it's on you if any harm comes to her, not Scarecrow," I said.

"Do you need any help Jason?" Adrien asked once I put Marinette in her bed.

"I got it. I'll send Tikki if I do need any help and update you in the morning."

"Take care of her," he instructed before leaving the room not bothering to acknowledge the fact I knew Marinette's biggest secret.

I closed the curtains before removing my helmet. Marinette looked pale but was burning up.

"She'll be alright Jason," Tikki said flying onto my shoulder. "Marinette is strong."

"It won't stop me from worrying about her. You heard how much pain she was in when the antidote was injected. No one has ever had such a reaction."

"I can feel her health increasing. The toxin is fading. Getting rid of the rest of it has just made her weak. No offense but you look like you also need to sleep."

Tikki flew to Marinette's side as I got dressed into more comfortable clothes.

"Everything will be better in the morning," I whispered in her ear pulling the blankets over us. "Goodnight Pixie." I cuddled up next to her not wanting to let go. I gave Marinette a kiss on the top of the head and closed my eyes drifting off.

"What the fuck Dupain-Cheng!?" A voice shrieked waking me up.

"Go away Chloe. I'm trying to sleep," Marinette muttered sinking more into my arms.

"I came in here to wake your lazy ass up only to see you in bed with your boyfriend."

"Exactly. I was asleep."

"No you need to wake up and explain why your boyfriend is in your bed," Nino added standing behind Chloe.

"I was sick and needed someone to take care of me."

"And you couldn't grab one of us?"

"How did you even sneak him in? I would have woken up if you used the door," Chole asked.

"The window. Now go away Mom and Dad. I need to get ready. I think you'll like where we're going Nino."

"Don't try to distract me."

"I'm not distracting you. I was telling you to get out so I can get ready to go to a place you'd like."

I felt someone grabbing the blanket at our feet getting ready to pull it off.
