The Badass Ladybird of Gotham

Damian's POV to 'Night of WOW'

I couldn't stand being there any longer, they absolutely bore me to death so I headed up to my room to play with Titus. I heard Alfred bringing that Dupain Cheng girl up to the spare room right across the hall.(or should I say spare rooms). I heard him walk away, and I realized that I was still wearing my day clothes. So I took a few minutes to pull on my pajamas.
I walked across the hall, and I knocked on the door. I guess I should apologize. I heard laughter from the room. She must be on a phone call.

"Hold on a moment." and the door opened. She was wearing pajamas. Those pajama pants are really-

"Can I help you monsieur demon?" who told her that nickname? Todd. Damn it. I corossed my eyes and looked at the floor, hoping she wouldn't see how red my face was. Well, it's now or never I guess

"I shouldn't have been so rude. I know what it's like being new in this house and the family pestering you every five seconds. Can I come in? I want to talk to you." I looked around the room for a chair of sorts, but I have no idea why the hell there are no chairs in the spare bedrooms. This is going to be so much more awkward than it has to be. I ended up just sitting on the side of her bed. She sat 'next' to me. Yeah ok, she is like so far away from me she's sitting on the pillows. I'm not that scary am I?

"I'm not going to hurt you Dupain-Cheng, stop acting like I killed Todd." I couldn't help but chuckle at that. It was just too funny. The idea of Todd dead. Since it already happened.

"Are you actually laughing? Wow I'm shocked," I immedeatly got offended by that. I have a sense of humor. Just much more complex than these- imbeciles. I rolled my eyes.

"Tt. I have a complex, sophisticated sense of humor that dull minded individuals cannot understand." All of a sudden she got really close in my face and I felt like my skin was lava. I froze.

"Try me," she challenged. Oh so this is a challenge. I grabbed her cheek, Holy crap why is her face so soft? I smirked and replied,

"You know, you are really cute when you pout like that." Her face went red, cute. Wait what? I decided to give her another smirk and back off and give the girl some air. And holy crap I need it too. Why is it so hard to breathe- oh well. I should tease her some more-

"You good there? I though you were a blueberry, not a tomato." she huffed and hit me in the shoulder. Hard. I must admit but it didn't hurt. She winced. I grabbed her arm and rolled up her sleeve and what I saw, drained the smile from my face. There, on her arm. Was a large cut that went down her arm surrounded by a giant black and purple bruise. I know I didn't cause it, because for 1, she just showed up here this morning and 2, I didn't hit her. I also know that it was there before she got here because she wasn't using her left arm. Now I know.

"Who-who did this to you?" my voice was shaky. I don't know why it was but, her arm, was also littered in scars. Both self inflicted but, mainly inflicted  upon her. By outside forces. She quickly pulled her sleeve back down but, she was shaking and trembling.

"How," I had to take a deep breath, "how long have you been covering these up Marinette? Does Todd at least know?" She glared at the ground and clutched the sheets in her hands. I grabbed her shoulder and forced her to look at me. Who the hell did this to her. When I find them I will-. Now is not the time. I looked her in the eyes.

"Damn it Marinette, this is serious!" She flinced when I yelleed at her and I immediatly regreted it. I watched her shake from rage and I felt the anger wash out of her.

"YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW THAT? I HAD TO LOOSE THE ONLY PEROSN WHO ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD WHAT I HAD TO DEAL WITH? I NEVER WANTED TO KILL HIM. I WANTED TO SAVE HIM. I DIDNT WANT TO KILL HIM. I didn't want to kill him." She was sobbing, more than earlier that day. I wonder who or what she is talking about, but now is not the time. I pulled her into a hug like Grayson did to me when I used to break down. She hit my chest That is defidentally going to leave many dark bruises... but I did not let her go.

"LET ME GO, LET ME GO, let me go..let me go.. let me..." she fell crying again. I did not let her go. I pulled her tighter and she relaxed in my chest and just cried. I looked down at her and knew I wanted to protect her at all costs. I needed to. The door was knocked upon and Grayson walked in. Damn it Grayson now is not the time. I swatted him away and held her close. For how long, I have no idea. But I just wanted time to stop. Her breathing slowed and She was asleep. On me. Holy shit what do I do? I pat her head, not knowing what the hell I should do.

"Uhh Du-Dupain Cheng, Would you like to umm go lay on the bed, I'm sure it's more comfortable than me." I smiled down at her She looks so small when she's sleeping. And I moved her onto the bed, and tucked her in. I stood up, grabbed her hand and let it fall as I turned to exit the room because SHe's been through a lot tonight. I felt my hand being grabbed and I felt myself being flipped in the air to the other side of her and I felt her ppull me close while snuggling into my chest. I felt my face flush. What should I do? And I didn't know what to do but I felt how warm she was and I gave in. I fell asleep with her on my chest. That night, I slept the best I ever did.
