Chapter 11 Fresh Air, Just what a Princess Needs
Adrien's POV:
He takes her out of there. He brings her outside.
"Marinette, what happened?"
He puts on gloves and yanks the nuts from her hands.
"Marinette?"
He gets no response. He carries her to the emergency room.
"I think it is carbon monoxide poisoning or an allergic reaction to something."
Doctor's POV:
"Sir, you will have to step aside."
Adrien shook his head.
"Step aside so we can help her."
"Fine, but I want a full report when you are done."
The doctor smiles. He thinks the guy sure is overprotective of her.
He got right to work.
Adrien's POV:
Adrien thinks, ugh, I should have been there for her when she woke up.
"This is bad. I should not have left her. I should have stayed."
"Plagg, what if she dies?"
He feels weak. It was almost like someone knocked the wind out of him.
Wow, he did not know he could feel this way about anyone. Least of all, a girl.
Plagg's POV:
Plagg smiles.
"Adrien, I am sure the doctor is doing all he can for her."
"I believe you got to her on time. Try not to stress over it."
Plagg sees Adrien's scowl. It is worse than he thought the guy has fallen for this girl. Oh no. His poor holder will go mad if the girl ends up dead.
"Trust me, she is fine."
Plagg hugs Adrien.
Adrien's POV:
Adrien goes to see Marinette once the doctor gives the all-clear.
He sees the window is closed. He frowns. He opens it just a little bit, there that is better, he thinks.
"Adrien, what are you doing?"
"Making sure you get plenty of fresh air."
"Fresh air, whatever for?"
"It is just what a princess needs."
He seemss not to notice the slip-up.
Marinette's POV:
Marinette hears him call her princess. She smiles.
She is grateful to him. Why he could call her just about anything and she would not mind.
She recalls how the doctor told her as he wheeled her out of the emergency room to another part of the hospital how fortunate she is to be alive.
"Marinette's Flashback..."
"Miss Marinette Dupain-Cheng, you are fortunate to be with us now."
"Hmm, what do you mean?"
"Wait, you are not Adrien!"
"I am Doctor Fredricks."
"Adrien is the lad who brought you in to see us."
Marinette gave the doctor a confused look.
The doctor laughed. "I can see by your expression you do not remember a thing. Adrien told us that you were allergic or it was carbon monoxide."
"And?"
"We ran some tests. It was not either. Turns out you were poisoned. Just not with the carbon monoxide gas."
"Wait, what? Someone tried to kill me?"
"Yes, that is exactly what we mean."
"No, it can not be."
"Sorry, but someone put poison all over the pecans. That is why when you bit into one you felt light-headed and passed out."
Marinette glanced at Doctor Fredricks in horror. "D-Does Adrien know?"
" End of Flashback..."
"Adrien, I almost died. If it were not for you I would not be here."
"Marinette, I know. Someone poisoned you."
"How did you find out?"
"The doctor told me before he let me see you. I thought I would pass out at the news."
"Adrien?"
Adrien's POV:
"Yes, Marinette?"
"Thanks for saving my life."
"Ha, ha, you are welcome, pr, I mean Mari."
He kisses her hand. "I better go so you can get some rest."
He sees her pout and blushes, boy, she is cute.
