Adrien sighed as he got off of Marinette and put his shirt back on. She fell asleep. He couldn't help but chuckle at how adorable she was. He tucked her into his bed and kept quiet as he walked around the apartment. His phone rang and he grabbed his key and stepped into the hall. "Hello?"

"Adrien! Is Marinette okay?" Sabine asked and he bit his lip.

"Yeah she is, why are you now calling?"

"We extend our stay here to help and Alya called us three weeks ago about this and we just got it. We're lucky to have service now," she sighed. "Should we come home or-"

"Mrs.Dupain-Cheng she's fine. I'm taking care of her. Everything is fine and she's fine. You enjoy your vacation." He smiled and chuckled.

"Okay but as soon as we hear anything bad we're coming straight home."

"Okay," he laughed. "Where are you exactly?"

"A small village in Africa. We're helping feed and teach underprivileged children."

"That's nice of you," he smiled and heard something inside the apartment. "I gotta go."

"Okay, bye." He hung up and ran back inside and ran into his room. Marinette was trying to unlock his drawer he kept his pills in. He ran to her and grabbed her hands and she crumbled to the floor crying.

"Marinette, why?" He held her on the floor of her room.

"I'm so, useless and pathetic. I can't do anything right and my whole life is a fucking mess! I just want it to end!" She pulled at her hair and he pulled her hands away. He hugged her close to his chest and she cried harder.

"You're not any of those things. You're a beautiful wonderful girl. I need you in my life and I will help you through this." He kissed the top of her head and she turned, crying into his chest. He looked down at her and kissed her forehead. She cried until she fell asleep. He put her back in his bed and lied down next to her. He held her close and she moved into him. He kissed her cheek and fell asleep next to her. It was close to midnight so they might as well go to bed.

Adrien woke up and smiled down at Marinette. She fluttered her eyes open and looked up at him and blushed. He kissed her gently and she gasped. He pulled away and looked at her. She was so, scared. "A-Adrien, what happened, last night?"

"You tried to kill yourself again," she wanted to cry. He held her close and she moved into his side. He traced circles on her hip. "We made out," she blushed. "Confessed to each other."

"W-What?"

He looked at her and gently smiled. "I love you, Marinette," his voice was soft. "I really do. Even if you think I don't, I will always love you. Whether you're Ladybug or Marinette. You're the same person underneath." She blushed and he kissed her lovingly. She kissed him back.

Maybe he was the only medicine she needed to take.
