Chapter 4: Jealousy
A/N: So, here is the next chapter!
Adrien had to keep his promise on going with Chloe tonight. Besides, if he lucky enough, he will meet Marinette tonight. Tonight was going to be his last day to stay at this Dupain-Cheng Resort. He will leave tomorrow. He didn't realize times travelled so fast. Maybe it was because he spent the day at the resort with Marinette.
As the night comes, Adrien waited outside of his room for Chloe to show up. Tonight must be his bad day because he will got stuck with Chloe like the whole night. "Adrihoney!" Shouted Chloe excitedly. "Chloe, can you behave yourself? It's pretty embarassing." Said Adrien angrily. "Of course I can't control myself around you. You're my boyfriend, after all." Answered Chloe. Adrien gulped. "I'm not your boyfriend Chloe. You should find someone else other than me." Said Adrien uninterestedly.
They walked side by side still holding on to their conversation. "Why did you say that?" Asked Chloe. "Someone already captured my heart." Said Adrien straight forward. Chloe crossed her arms angrily. "We can just be friend or bestfriend." Continued Adrien. She just hummed angrily. She is so annoying. Thought Adrien.

As soon as they arrived, Adrien saw Marinette at the restaurant and his face look dreamily and Chloe noticed that. "Why your face look like that?! Don't ever tell me that silly receptionist the one that already captured your heart!" She exclaimed.
"Hey, don't talk bad things about her like that!" Warned Adrien. "Huh?! That's how she looks like, ugly and clumsy. Not as gorgeous as me!" Shouted Chloe. "Just shut up, Chloe. If not, I'm going back to my room, right now." Said Adrien. "Okay, okay. You win! Lets go." Said Chloe with mischievous smile appeared on her face, her plan was still in progress.
As they went at their table, Marinette was at the kitchen. Chloe's plan already finished, just waited for something to show up and her plan was going to work. She called Sabrina and asked her to go to the restaurant. While they were choosing an order on the menu, Sabrina already arrived as she asked. They sat in a separated way. Adrien and Chloe on the left while Sabrina on the right.
Adrien just sat there awkwardly. I hope Nino is here to take me away from Chloe. After that, Nino showed up and waved at him. Nino went to hang out with Alya since she was free. He knows that Marinette was busy but tonight, she works at the restaurant at the kitchen and he could stalk her. Such a stalker he was. He already tasted their foods and drinks but wonder who was the chef.
"Chloe, I want to go to the toilet." Said Adrien. "Okay, don't be late Adrikins!" Reminded Chloe. He ignored the nickname she gave him. "Okay, just a couple of a minute." Said Adrien. Actually, he lied to her.
He went to the kitchen quietly, didn't want to make any noises but got caught by a certain bluebell eyes that he adores the most. "Hye, Adrien. What are you doing. Spying on me." Asked Marinette jokingly. He just blushed. "Just kidding." Continued Marinette. He let a sighed of relief to hear that she was just joking around. "Oh, I was just, um, want to check out who's the chef that makes the foods delicious." Explained Adrien. "Oh, you want to meet them?" Asked Marinette. Adrien just nodded. "Wait here. I call them." Adrien could see she was heading to the big man and a short woman that looks a lot like Marinette, the different is just that the woman looks like chinese.

"Mom, dad. Say hi to Adrien." Said Marinette happily. Oww, that's her parents? So cute. Thought Adrien. "Hi." They said at the same time and Adrien replied them. "So, these are the chefs, Marinette?" Asked Adrien. "Yeah. And also my parents." Answered Marinette.
"I'm Adrien Agreste, Mr. And Mrs...?" Said Adrien. "I'm Tom Dupain, just call me Tom. Here is my wife, Sabine Cheng, just call her Sabine." Answered Tom. "Isn't Gabriel Agreste your favourite fashion designer, honey?" Asked Sabine sweetly at Marinette. "Oh, yeah! Wait a second... you are HIS SON?!" Suprised Marinette. "Yeah. I thought you know already from the start." Joked Adrien. She just rolled her eyes. "You're lucky you have met his son, sweetheart." Called Sabine. Marinette hummed in agreement. "Anyway, mom and dad, I'm going to give these orders to Mrs. Chle and Mrs. Sabrina. Just continue your chat without me." Marinette explained to them. Marinette was dissapered from the kitchen after that. They continued their chat.

"What took Adrien so long?" Chloe wondered. She spotted Marinette coming to her direction and she signal Sabrina to get ready. As soon as she arrived, she gave them their orders. When she was going to head back to the kitchen, Sabrina tripped Marinette by using her feet. She was tripped on the ground. Her forehead was bleeding and Chloe just laughed at her.
Adrien and Marinette's parents heard a loud 'aww' from the outside of the kitchen and they hurriedly went to the place where they heard that sound. Adrien saw Marinette on the ground and his eyes were wide and ran to her. "Are you okay, Mari? Oww, you're bleeding." Said Adrien worriedly. "I told you already, Adrien. She's just clumsy." Said Chloe but they ignored her. "I'm okay. Don't worry." Answered Marinette. She tried to stand up but she couldn't because her feet were too hurt to make her able to stand up.
"Don't worry Tom, Sabine. If you don't mind, I'm going to bring her to my room, tonight." Explained Adrien. He could see a tense in Sabine's face. "Okay, okay. Take care of my daughter, Adrien. I trust you." Said Sabine in a mixed of worried and serious tone. "By the way, my room at 191." Said Adrien quickly. Then, Adrien carried Marinette like a bridal-style and headed to his room.
__________
Adrien knocked on the door by using his foot. "Hurry up, Nino." Shouted Adrien. "Wow, man. No need to be angry. For your information, you think I don't know you use your foot to knock?" Called Nino from inside the room. Before Adrien could answer, Nino already unlocked the door key He was surprised to see Adrien carried Marinette.
You totally got it bad, man. Thought Nino.
As he got inside, Adrien laid Marinette on the bed. "Care to explain what is going on, dude?" Asked Nino and he crossed his arms. "Don't you see she was bleeding, bro? Someone tripped her." Said Adrien worriedly. He couldn't control his emotion when it comes to his lady. "I bet it was Chloe." Nino predicted. "I thought so too." Answered Adrien. Adrien took a flass of water for Marinette to make her feel even better.
__________
On the other hand, Chloe's plan didn't go as she expected. Because of her jealousy, she did anything to get Adrien's attention. She felt like she was going to give up. Maybe for the best, she was going to find someone else.
When Adrien walked passed by the door, he suddenly heard someone talking about his princess. He reversed back and heard what they were talking about. Ke knows that voice very much. That voice belongs to Chloe. Nino was actually right, it was Chloe's plan at the restaurant. She used Sabrina so that Adrien didn't blame her.
After Adrien told Nino what was actually happening. Nino hurriedly called Alya. "Hey, Alya." Called Nino and continued, "do you mind if Mari sleep here tonight?" Asked Nino.
"Yeah, sure. Is she okay? I heard about the incident from Tom and Sabine." Alya said with corncerned. He watched as Adrien put plaster on injured part of Marinette's forehead while she was sleeping. Then, he answered Alya's question. "I think she is getting better." Said Nino. Alya already suggested that Marinette should take a rest at their room.
It's not like Alya and Marinette live far away from the resort. Their apartment was like around two blocks away from the resort.
Adrien watched Marinette slept so soundly. How come someone hate such a wonderful woman like you. He thought. Nino called for his name and thought he should take a rest after tonight's incident. Nino slept on the couch while Adrien sat next to Marinette. Just in case she needed anything. "Sleep well, My lady, princess." He whispered and kissed her forehead. Without knowing, he slept as well.
