Marry Me

Chapter 8

Adrien knocked softly on Lila's door, Marinette clutching his arm.

A few minutes later, a woman opened it up.

"Hello! Who are you?"

"W-we're friend's of Lila! Can we meet her?"

The woman nodded before saying, "Wait. Aren't you Adrien Agreste? Lila's boyfriend?"

Marinette gasped before she pulled away from Adrien.

"W-what?"

The woman frowned at Marinette.

"Lila always talks about Adrien... her boyfriend? She said everyone knew."

Marinette looked at Adrien with disgust and turned around to leave, but before she could go, Adrien grabbed onto her hand.

"Marinette! That isn't true! Trust me!"

Marinette's eyes were too dried up to cry, so it became rage instead.

"I'm not going to say anything right now. Let go of me Adrien."

"No!"

Marinette twisted Adrien's arms and pinned him to the wall.

"Looks like the tables have turned."

She punched Adrien in the gut and ran back home.

Lila's mom was still there, staring.

Adrien clutched his stomach, the pain still there.

Who knew Marinette was so strong?

He rubbed the back of his neck and entered Lila's house without another word.

"Lila?"

He knocked on her door again.

"I'm coming, I'm coming just wait-"

The door swung open and Adrien's first sight was bangs.

"Adrien?"

"H-hey Lila. Can I come in?"

"So," she clarified shaking her head. "You want me to stop?"

"Yeah pretty much..."

Adrien looked into Lila's eyes and saw hatred blooming.

"You really think I'm going to? After all the times you rejected me? Just so you know, it isn't just me. How about Chloe- oh wait I bet you knew. I'm guessing you don't know the others?"

"Others?" asked Adrien, surprised.

Lila gave a fake laugh and her face twisted into rage.

"You didn't just hurt me Adrien. You hurt so many others. You figured out Chloe. But who was the other girl?"

Adrien hesitated before it hit him.

"Kagami."

Lila smirk appeared.

"And who did Marinette hurt?"

Adrien quickly stood up and stepped back.

"L-Luka."

"Wow," she said sarcastically. "Finally gaining some sense."

Adrien gave one last look at the evil girl and ran out of the house, as fast as he could.
