      Adrien's POV:
       Adrien grins at the girls the two on his mind a lot recently.  He loves them both so much. He hopes one day they both can more then just friends.  He dares not state such an opinion so as not to scare Marinette away from him.   He turns to go but stops when something or rather someone reaches out and grabs his arm.

      "Adrien, do come inside for a bit," Marinette says.

        Bethany grins, then frowns when she recalls how it is way past her bedtime. She goes inside the house as soon as her mother unlocks the door, then straight to her room.  She enters the bathroom, prepares for bed, then soon she is asleep in her bed.

        "Marinette, I love what you have done with the place," Adrien says. He looks as if he means every word.

     "Thanks, I think," Marinette says.

      "Look, not to sound like a weirdo, but that guy Oden gave me the creeps.  I saw him follow you, and had a hunch he would not leave you alone.  I climbed into my vehicle and followed close behind his tail," Adrien explains.

    "Oh, that explains how you got here so fast," Marinette says.

    "Yes, and I would have gotten out sooner, but I wanted to be sure first," Adrien states.

       
   Marinette's POV:

     Marinette thinks, what is he talking about now?  She has not the foggiest idea.

      "Adrien, I have no idea what you mean," Marinette says.

      "I saw him get out and approach you," Adrien explains.

     "Oh, dear me,"  Marinette replies.

     "I  did not like him bothering you, " Adrien tells her.

       "Also, I felt like I had to surprise him, so as not to be mistaken for a bad guy," Adrien goes on to say.

    "I say you surprised him,"  Marinette responds.

         Marinette notices Adrien smiles as if he has something important on his mind. She sits down.


   Adrien's  POV:

   Adrien takes a seat on the sofa next to Marinette. He does not touch her since he is sure she is not ready for such a thing. He places his hands on his lap.

    " Marinette, I  feel like I am intruding, goodness, it is late," Adrien says.

     "You are not intruding, why on the contrary as I recall you did save our lives back there," Marinette tells him.

   "I hardly can take credit for all that since the police arrested him," Adrien protest.

        Marinette yawns since she is so tired and soon falls asleep.

       Adrien grins as he thinks take care, Mari.  He gets up and exits the house.  He sees the police have already left.  He locks the door with the key which ironically enough was left in the door. He frowns at the thought as he places it inside the funny fake rock in the corner part of her porch.  He hopes Marinette and Bethany will be safe.

      He drives home, yawns the entire time, but gets back safely. He parks his car, gets out, locks it, and enters his house with his house key. As he locks the door, the last thought on his mind is about a certain Bluenette and her daughter who looks like a miniature her.   He grins, prepares for bed, and soon dozes off.
