-Marinette's POV-
It suddenly dawned on me that if Ladybug suddenly comes back and I suddenly come back, wont that look suspicious?
The only one who knew i 'faked my death' was Adrien. I didn't fake my death, I faked Ladybug's. Everybody else thought I, Marinette, was missing. I'll just re introduce them at different times.

A small part of me was stubborn, thinking I didn't deserve what Adrien said to me.
But then I knew, in my head and my heart that what I did was wrong.
I chased after him, I wanted him, then when he finally fell for me too I broke his heart.

- - - Adrien's POV- - -

Weird. I had no history of seizures. I had no epilepsy diagnosis, and no illness that could associate with having a seizure.
And violent ones, too?
I had to admit, that was quite frightening.

"Hey, April!" I exclaimed, waving to my friend who was making her way to the cafeteria.
"How comes you haven't been released yet when you've been cleared?"
She shrugged. "I don't know. They want to run a lot of tests seeing as it could relapse. Anything could happen. I guess they want to double check it's gone. Or triple check. Even quadruple check."

I giggled slightly and we started running to the cafeteria like little kids.

Day by day, I became more and more fond of April. She became like a best friend. I didn't love her the way i loved Marinette, but i loved her like the best friend I never had.

"Congrats, you made it to your fifth day in here without the doctors knowing what the f*ck caused your mental seizure!" April laughed, parading into our hospital room and leaping onto her bed.
I joined in on her laughing, but part of me wanted to stay in here longer so I could have more time with April.

"I have a wig fitting tomorrow in the cosmetics department. Come with?" She shrugged, grabbing a plate of chicken the nurses had brought us.
I nodded, devouring my side of the plate extremely quickly.

Our day went by pretty quickly, we wandered around the hospital courtyard, grabbed some cafeteria pizza for lunch, bought some milkshakes and went for a 'jog' in the hospital gym.

Now it was 5:30pm, we were on out way back to our room. We were laughing, smiling and joking about until I saw...her.

"No...No..N-No..NO!!!!" I screamed, sobbing and falling to the ground.

"ADRIEN!!!" April yelled, not touching me.
"Someone help!!" She cried, "He's having another seizure, HELP!!"
Then everything was a blur. I couldn't control my movements or speech, it was like my body was completely out of control.

Before I knew it, I lost my grip to consciousness.

- - - 2 hours later - - -

"You okay, Adrien?" April asked, bringing me a tray of food, desserts and drinks from the cafeteria.
"Yeah, I'm feeling fine. I don't really remember much of it except I saw someone, realised I still f**king love them...But how does any of that cause a seizure?!" I questioned, completely baffled.

"Well, I suppose anger can trigger one. Or extreme upset. But you don't have an associated illness. These are probably extremely rare occasions for you." April responded, patting me on the back gently.

"You still up for looking for wigs with me tomorrow?" She asked, "It's okay if you're not, the cosmetics department is only-"

"Of course! I just need to eat and get some good rest. Night, April."

- - - The Next day! - - -
-Ladybug's POV-

Was it my fault Adrien had a seizure? I couldn't help but think that it was.
I missed him. I missed Chat Noir, too. I missed his witty jokes, his cute smile, his fluffy blonde hair...I missed everything about the two of them.
