Enemies With Benefits

His Eyes

POV Marinette:

Alya and I finally finished the work even before lunch time. she transferred me everything then I mailed the work to Chloe and we both left for lunch

Alya: finally, I can eat, I'm so hungry

Marinette: thanks for your help Alya, you are a real sister for me

Alya: that's what friends are made for. By the way, Nino is coming, join us for lunch

Marinette: you don't want to be alone with him?

Alya: come on, just join us and also, tell him about Adrien's ghost

She said while walking and laughing. I won't deny that "Adrien's ghost" made me laugh

We left the company and we found Nino waiting for Alya in the entrance. They shared a kiss then we all left to the nearest restaurant

We ordered our food, we all took a big peperoni pizza, the only one hungry is Alya

Alya: hey Nino, do you know where Adrien is?

Nino: my best friend?

Alya: fuck, do you know another Adrien?

Nino: yes, I do work with an Adrien in the bar.

Marinette: we talk about Adrien Agreste

Nino: no, not a single information about him. the last time I saw him was in his parent's funeral. The next morning, I thought ill visit him, but I found that his mansion is sold, his cars are also sold all in an auction. The only thing available is the company Agreste, but it's closed. I tried to call him in his three numbers, no one of them are available

Alya: the fuck, it's like the ground split in two and swallowed him

Nino: why have you mentioned about him?

Marinette: yesterday, it's like I saw him for a second in front of my house, but maybe I was hallucinating

Nino: hopefully he is fine, and started a new family

Alya: his children will be so cute just like their father

Marinette: if he is married, do you think he will never come here? I'm afraid guys

Nino: afraid of what happened six years ago?

Marinette: yes. The first one that he wants to kill is me. don't forget that I'm their daughter

Nino: you are their daughter, but it's not you who killed them Marinette.

Alya: see, I told you

Nino: I'm sure he will understand you. you want to see him?

Marinette: are you serious? Nino, Adrien Agreste for me is a trauma. We never liked each other, and I hate him for all the seven years of bullying me

Nino: we talk about the ring in your finger?

Alya: bingo, I told you

Marinette: fine, I'll take it off

When I put my fingers on the ring to take it off, I looked at the corner, and I found two emerald eyes staring at me, it was Adrien's eyes. I was so terrified that I screamed my lungs out and everyone looked at me

Alya: what the fuck Marinette, what happened to you?

My head was between my hands, I was crying. I looked at the same place, but there wasn't anyone. I run out the restaurant and went to the company

In the road, I was going to get hit by a car twice, and I finally reached my office. I was crying, I was terrified, I don't want that I find Adrien, I'm afraid of everything

Now, I'm hearing his voice calling me "Marinette", I put my hands over my ears to stop that but when someone placed his hand on my shoulder, I lift my head and found Nino and Alya

Nino: hey Marinette, everything is fine

Marinette: I s-saw him, Adrien

Alya: Marinette, there wasn't any Adrien. Nino and me went to the table you were fixing, there were only an empty cup of whisky nothing else

Marinette: t-there wasn't any Adrien?

Nino: if the Adrien you know, then no, he wasn't there.

Marinette: I'm tired guys

Nino: look, today, I'm hosting a good night in my club, I was going to invite you but you run away. so, are you coming?

Marinette: yes... yes sure. We will be ready

Alya: you will get ready in my house, then ill drive you home or sleep in my house, ok? tomorrow is Saturday after all

Marinette: okkk. Then after work, ill take my clothes, and go with you to your house.

Nino: greet then, ill take you both. We will have an amazing night, and if needed, ill work as a DJ for you both ladies

I still shivering and trembling from what happened. I saw him in my house, in the restaurant, morning and night. Why?

I couldn't control my tears. I was afraid, I may die or pass out if I see Adrien Agreste in front of me.

I'm not ready at all.

My best friend sat me on my chair, Alya gave me a cup of water to calm myself. Even when I got the cup of water, my hand was shaking, and I even dropped some water on the floor. I was so nervous. Alya got the cup from me and put it on the desk then she hugged me and patted on my back

Alya: you are just thinking a lot about Adrien Agreste. Please Marinette forget about him. look at yourself, you are really in trauma because of him

Marinette: if.... i-if he finds me, he w-will kill me

Nino: he has no need to kill you. also, he won't kill anyone, Adrien isn't a serial killer or mafia Marinette. you can read all those in a fanfiction only

Marinette: m-my life can be a fanfiction Nino. He bullied me for seven years then I lived in trauma for the past six year.

Alya: look, Nino is right, why he would kill you? even if he is angry about his parent's death, he will just talk with you about what happened, no more, no less

Marinette: so, I'm just hallucinating about seeing Adrien in front of my house and in the restaurant

Nino: yes, because if he was really in the restaurant, Alya and I would see him. Adrien is tall

Alya: yeah, he was 6.1 so everyone can see him. damn I remember you Marinette, you were a short ass beside him, you are only 5.3

Marinette: Alya, Nino.... Tonight, in the party, I want to forget someone named Adrien Agreste......
