Chapter 27: Coming to Terms of Your Feelings
(M/n) glanced down at his notes, he was studying with Rose and Juleka, Nathaniel had said that he was busy but the tall teen had the feeling that he was just avoiding the pianist. Rose and Juleka were helping him with some of the subjects that he had missed due to not being at the College for very long.
(M/n) was originally left-handed, although, with some practice from his physical therapy(the week he attended) they worked on getting his right hand into shape for writing and typing.
Rose noticed his distant look as the boy dozed off slightly with her soft voice. The blonde smiled and scooted closer to the boy, wrapping her arms around the boy's right bicep to grab his attention. (M/n) snapped back from his drowning thoughts and glanced down at the girl, "hm?" he hummed.
"You seem tired, you can take a nap if you want, I'll wake you up in a bit.." she smiled thoughtfully, (M/n) gave her a small nod, and leaned his head onto her shoulder without a second thought, and closed his eyes after taking his glasses off.
"Thanks," he murmured, Juleka gaped at the two before leaning her head onto Rose's other shoulder and hugging her waist.
The small girl blushed at the attention and struggled to calm her rapidly beating heart until her attention was grasped by Nino and Adrien walking into the library with their bags.
Adrien wore something different, other than his usual t-shirt and jeans with the addition of his white overshirt. He wore a black hoodie with black ripped jeans to accompany it. It was getting a little chilly, although the heat of the sun was still down on their backs.
"Hey!" Rose whispered-yelled, grabbing the boys attention, "can you help me?" she smiles. Adrien noticed the tall boy napping and smiled back before making his way over to the boy's side. With scripted movements, Adrien packed up his things and set them into the (h-c)-haired seventeen-year-old's shoulder bag.
"(M/n).." Adrien whispers out softly, grinning when the boy reacted to his voice by humming. "Come on, I'll take you back to your place, " this shocked the other three teenagers watching them. Nino pursed his lips in thought as he watched his best friend coddle the boy he had once insulted for being mean.
(M/n) pushed against Rose's shoulder with his forehead, snuggling his nose near her neck for a second before getting up and rubbing his eyes as Adrien grabbed ahold of his glasses and hand that was reached out for him to hold.
"I'll take him back to his place, he never got his afternoon nap during lunch today since it was raining, have fun studying~, " Adrien's princely smile made (M/n) squint his eyes at the bright grin and plop his head on the boy's nape.
Adrien turned to look back at Nino with a smile, "Sorry Nino, we'll study together next time, " he gave the taller boy an apologetic look before making his way out of the library with (M/n) stumbling behind him. Nino turned to Rose and Juleka who were watching the two with equally shocked expressions.
Rose shakily looked up at Nino with crocodile tears---not expecting Adrien to actually take the boy away from her.
"I thought (M/n) hated Adrien..." she whined, Nino only nodded back, still in disbelief as he turned his attention back to where Adrien and (M/n) were.
------
Adrien made his way to a small alley way and leaned (M/n) against the wall while he let Plagg out. The kwamii noticed the tall teenager and flinched back, glaring at Adrien in surprise as he quickly zoomed back into the boy's bag. "Adrien!" he hissed out, catching (M/n)'s eyes in a small stare down.
"You told someone that you're Chat Noir?!" the cat miraculous gestured wildly with his tiny arms, smacking the golden-blond's hands away from him when the model got too close. (M/n) chuckled and pushed himself off the wall, holding his hand out to the kwamii with a welcoming grin that he didn't show to many.
"I found out on my own," (M/n) waited patiently until Plagg shook his index finger up and down slowly--hesitantly coming closer and inspecting him before turning back to Adrien with a pout and sighing out deeply in irritation.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah...this kid isn't good at keeping anything a secret. Especially with his unhealthy obsession with Ladybug and becoming friends with you." Plagg spoke honestly, not even sparring the model a glance as he exposed him to a total stranger. Of course, (M/n) hummed and leaned against the wall again, yawning tiredly and resting his eyelids.
"Yeah, tell me about it. Since the day I got here, all he's been doing is save me from akuma's and give me more trouble by invading my personal space 24/7." (M/n) responded with a smirk, his arms crossing over his chest when Adrien gasped out in shock.
At this point, Plagg and (M/n) were more than comfortable with each other as they teased the blond for his clingy attitude before they finally stopped and moved on when Adrien transformed into Chat Noir to interrupted Plagg mid-sentence.
"I took you out of there to get you away from breaking your neck on Rose's shoulder--not to..Not to make fun of me with Plagg!" Chat whined, slapping (M/n)'s right shoulder in protest. (M/n) laughed out and rolled his eyes before kicking off the wall once more and making his way out of the library once he grabbed Adrien's bag and his own.
"Yeah, right. It's already clear enough that he probably knows stuff about me--obsessed with becoming my friend--he got that part right. Although," the (h/c)-haired teenager paused and turned to look at the hero.
"You've never once mention Ladybug to me." he smiled shortly as he ran a hand through Chat's messy golden-blond hair and showing the boy's forehead, "I wonder why.." he smirked once more and flicked the boy's forehead and continuing on through the small street opening to his house.
Chat pursed his lips, frowning at the taller boy's words in frustration with himself, when he thought about it, he really hadn't mentioned anything remotely near Ladybug while around the other seventeen-year-old. Of course, he was probably too busy thinking about different way of approaching the tall young adult.
Plagg and (M/n) were right about one thing about him though. He was obsessed with the idea of becoming friends with (M/n) to the point of childish behavior.
==================
After a while, Marinette and (M/n) settled over their differences, leaving (M/n) to his thoughts while he huddled on the floor in a ball.
(E/c)-colored hues watched Adrien's body shift with uncertainty as he tried to avoid landmines that made Marinette freak out around him, (M/n) was jealous over the fact that Adrien was so forgiving. It almost made him weak in the knees, that was if he were not so absorbed in watching the blond talk quietly.
He probably fell for the blond whenever he resembled Tyler while taking care of him, of course, his reasoning changed. Adrien would never be compared to Tyler, Tyler was just someone who was close to (M/n)'s heart. But now, he was gone and there was nothing (M/n) could do to bring him back.
Adrien was warm like the sun and had the fresh smell of pine and lavender from his laundry detergent, it was an addicting scent to the point that (M/n) almost caught himself buying the same one from the store just he other day. But, Adrien was calming to be around, he had this sort of mysterious glint in those beautiful feline-like jade green eyes.
Something that you could find yourself getting lost in if he let you, almost drowning you in that warmth to the point of your skin sweating in nervous flinches if he moved too fast.
He's like a prideful but timid Lion, with a heart of gold. (M/n) thought, droning as he laid down on his side.
(M/n) hummed to himself and snapped out of his thoughts when he noticed Tikki and Plagg fly over to him while Marinette and Adrien were talking among themselves. It was mostly Adrien laughing awkwardly and Marinette stuttering over her words. (M/n) frowned to himself and made his way up Marinette's latter to her bed and plopped down, his feet hanging over the end as the two kwamii's cuddled up near his fluffy hair.
"I'm in deep trouble..." (M/n) murmured to himself, Plagg and Tikki glanced at each other before looking down at the (h/c)-haired teenager, "I won't be able to keep these feelings away." (M/n) groaned and rolled over onto his stomach, burying his face into Marinette's cat body pillow and closing his eyes with a deep underlying sigh of stress.
I'm screwed..
