The Treasured Ring AU *Marichat/Adrienette by Summer Cheng

Chapter 6 The Misunderstanding

  In the previous Chapter, the doctor looks at Chat and says,  "That is really something for your girlfriend to decide."    The doctor leaves the room.  Chat thinks, wait!  The doctor thinks I am her boyfriend! ...

  Now, in the current Chapter, Chat paces the  floor to the room.  Marinette notices and wonders what is he up to now?   Chat looks at her and smiles. He blushes just a little as well.

   "Marinette, did you notice how the doctor thought we were dating?"  Chat says.

 "What?  Where on earth did he get that idea?"  Marinette says.

"I have no idea, what so ever!" Chat says.

"Oh,I see." Marinette says.

    Marinette's POV:  Chat is a great guy!  He is a great friend even!  I still don't see him as being my type.  Wait, that is not quite right!  I like him.  I really like him.  There is no way someone as amazing as him could ever like me.  I mean, why should he?  I am just a silly girl who listens to whatever he mother says to do no matter what.  Only, lately my mother has gotten out of control.  It is her fault, I fainted right?   I mean thanks to her I am malnourished, and dehyrated as the doctor put it.  Not only on this, but how can I go back home to the abuse?  I am not sure I should, nor that I can.  I am also, not sure I can just go to Chat's either.  I mean what will people say?   It is not as though we are dating.  The very idea is plan laughable. 

  Chat' s  POV:  As I look at Marinette, my princess, I wonder what  it is she thinks about?  Does she ever think about me?  If so, in what way?  I mean does she even care for me in the way the doctor implies?   For that matter, does she like me at all?   I may be just a great friend to this girl !  I am her first friend as she has made sure to tell me as much on the few other times I have seen her.   I still wonder why her mother was so cruel to her!  I do not know my mother, so I can not say rather she is kind, or not.  I  can not say if she is the time to care for someone as a real mother should.   I do know my father tried his best to be there for me and he even saw to it that I always plenty enough to eat and drink. There is was never a time I ever went without a meal, or water.  I can not imagine all that Marinette must have gone through over the years before I met her.  Let alone ever since her mother locked her away in her room in the attempt to keep her away from the public view and from me.  I do believe that was her real intent.   I do not think she meant any real harm towards her health.  Other than of the course, the slap marks which she put there after she confronted my princess after a day on the town together.  I feel somehow, as I am am fault for this part of her mother's mistrust in her and her anger towards her.  I am not sure why I feel so responsible for this.  I just know that is the way I feel about it.  I also, know that I cherish the time we spend together rather she does or not.

      Nathalie comes to the hospital and barges right into the room where Chat sits in the chair beside the bed Marinette sits in at the moment.  She looks at them and thinks, what is the meaning of all this?  She thinks, I do believe if   Mr Agreste were here he would approve of whoever this blue haired girl is that seems to have taken an interest in his son, Chat Noir. For that matter, I do believe Chat is smitten with her as well.  She smiles.  She does not say a word as she takes  a seat on a bench near the window in the room. 

     "Nathalie, what brings you here?"  Chat says.

    " I came to see for myself if what the news said was true, or not. " Nathalie says.

  " Well, as you can see she is not doing that well," Chat says.

  "Yes, well I am sure she is in good hands,"  Nathalie replies.
