Forgive Me, Princess ~Completed~

Chapter 1

'Mrs Mendeleiev's class sure is a drag' Marinette thought as she stared at the clock on the wall at the far side of the science lab, willing the period to be over.

"Miss Dupain-Cheng, did you hear me?"

Marinette looked up at the dark purple haired teacher who, to her surprise, was a couple of inches from her face.

"No, sorry Miss. Could you repeat that?" Marinette replied politely, not wanting to get sent to the headmaster's office again for the 3rd time that week.

"I need you to get some extra beakers from the store room. Everyone will need two beakers each today and we are 8 beakers short." Her teacher said, holding out a finger with a set of keys balanced on the tip.

"But Miss, I won't be able to carry 8 beakers on my own." Marinette shot a confused expression at her science teacher.

Miss Mendeleiev let out an exaggerated sigh.

"Yes I know Miss Dupain-Cheng. If you'd been listening then you would've heard me say you AND Mr Agreste."

Marinette let out an inward screech.

HER! WITH ADRIEN! IN A CONFINED SPACE! OH HELL NO!

Meanwhile her best friend Alya nudged her playfully and shot her a knowing wink.

"Go get him, girl!" She whispered in Marinette's ear, making the bluenette blush even more.

"O-okay m-miss." She stuttered, taking the keys from her.

The blond haired boy turned round and smiled at her, causing her to blush from head to toe.

"Cmon Marinette, let's go."

***

Just a couple of minutes later left the two teens rummaging around in the store cupboard for the spare beakers.

Marinette was trying not to have a heart attack at the situation of being in a confined space with her crush.

"You okay Marinette?" Said crush asked from behind her, noticing her obvious distress.

"Y-yeah, just fine Adrien." Marinette replied with a reassuring smile.

Then it happened.

Six short rings of the school bell.

Now it wasn't often that they heard that. You see, one long ring signalled the end of a period, three short rings meant that there was an akuma attack in the school, but six rings. Six rings meant qthat there was a dangerous intruder in the school.

Not an akumatised victim, which they were used to, but just a regular person, who had dangerous intentions.

So Marinette relaxed partially, knowing that her alter ego wasn't needed this time.

Her relief was short lived however, as she heard a short click from behind her.

Shit.

She was now locked in a room with Adrien Agreste (who she had a major crush on),for who knows how long, while there was a dangerous person roaming about the school.

The blond model looked at Marinette in confusion, having sensed her increased stress levels.

"What's going on Marinette?" He asked her, cocking his head to the side in a way that bore a striking resemblance to a certain black cat.

"Well, you know that three rings of the bell means an akuma attack right?" Adrien nodded in reply, brows still furrowed in confusion.

"Wellll, six rings of the bell means that there's a dangerous intruder in the building. It's not an akuma victim so Ladybug and Chat Noir won't be needed but they still pose a threat to us, so they'll be dealt with by the police. And basically the school has put a new security measure in place which automatically locks all of the rooms in the school until it's safe for the staff and pupils to come out."
