Marinette furrowed her brow, a small groan emanating from her throat as she could feel the warmth of the sun permeating from the curtains of their bedroom.

She could still smell the aroma of rain from the open window and she was glad that the storm was over. She didn't know how to convince Adrien to go to bed, but she heard him mumbling throughout the night.


He tossed and turned.
He whined and whined until he eventually fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Marinette would wrap her arms around him and draw him close.

She didn't know what time he'd consider talking to Kagami, but she knew that part of his insomnia wouldn't stop until he had fully confronted Kagami and heard her side of the story and finally get some closure.

Marinette had stayed up most of the night with him, refusing to sleep until Adrien was calm enough to sleep. She had felt incredibly guilty, worried that he wouldn't get enough sleep for his early morning modeling gig.
The young woman made sure to take a mental note to talk about taking some time off. They both certainly needed it.

Marinette slipped her hands more so underneath the bedsheets, her heart sinking as they came up empty. She didn't want to sleep through him waking up for work, but Adrien was too mindful. He made sure to prepare himself for work without making any noise so she wouldn't wake up.

She sighed, lifting her head up and glancing at the disheveled bedding with a grimace.
"Adrien..." she whimpered, rolling on her back and glancing up at the ceiling.

She mindlessly reached for her phone at the bedside table, her fingers curling around the mobile device as she used one of her digits to swipe through the screen.
A warm smile spread across her lips as she opened Adrien's contact with a small blush.

'I see you've managed to sneak away from me again. I hope you won't avoid me tonight. I've been looking forward to seeing you~'

Marinette felt her heart squeeze in her chest as she reread her message over and over again before she eventually sent it.

She tossed her phone onto the side of the bed, her eyes fixated onto the ceiling as she tried to ponder what she wanted to do on her day off without Adrien.
The entire house was hers, aside from Tikki and she was well aware that Alya was pregnant and struggled to get sleep most nights. She wouldn't want to bother Alya for a cup of coffee.
