It was a rainy night. I was returning to my apartment from my workplace. As I was going back, I saw something - no, I saw someone... I thought about for a while and went to the alley to check out... there was a man lying down at the corner injured, a bike at near him.... I went to him and shook him a bit... I got no response. I was about to leave that place… But I looked back to hear some noise. I saw the man moving a bit…...' Great' and here I thought he's dead *sighs* now need to take care of him,' I thought
with that, I took him to my house with me
•~○At the home○~•
The unknown guy whom I found from the street was now resting on the couch Well technically he has fallen asleep as I was checking if he had any injuries or not. I'm lucky that my parents weren't home or they would've questioned me, "Who he was?" or "Is he your boyfriend?" and many more, etc.
I noticed that he had few cuts over his arms and forearms
examining those cuts I got to know these were just minor cuts, but I had to clean those cuts
I went to my bedroom to get the first aid box and a bowl of water and a towel to clean the cuts
...After gathering all the necessary products I went to the living room where the man is fast asleep, crouching near the couch I took the towel and dipped into the water and dry it a little, I started to clean those areas after that I took some ointment and spread it gently on his injuries while doing that I noticed that he had quite the handsome face, soft rosy lips, pale skin-...
I stopped my actions as I saw him stir up a bit. Thinking he's going to wake up, I stood up and backed away a bit. He begins to open his eyes as I spoke
???: "You're awake, I see."
Unknown man: "Mmm...I guess so, where am I?"
???: "You're at my apartment, I saw you unconscious down the streets, injured, so I brought you here…"
Unknown man: "Ah, thank you for taking care of me.
???: "it was nothing. Really..."
All this time, I noticed he was staring at me from the moment he woke up, not giving too much thought. I just shrugged it off and asked him
???: "So, what's your name?"
he kept silence for a minute, then spoke
Unknown man: "Apologies, I'm Luka, and you are..?"
???: "Ah, yes, sorry, I'm Marinette. Nice to meet you, " I said while moving my hands towards him for a handshake
The unknown man, now known as Luka, just smiled and shook my hand gently
Marinette: "So, can I ask why you've got cuts and all? If you don't mind answering them, " I awkwardly asked, breaking off the silence that filled the air.
Adrien just smiled at my behaviour and chuckled a little before answering
Luka: "It's okay. I don't mind you asking, besides its normal to ask when someone's hurt, isn't it?
I blushed and nodded before mumbling a little. "Ah, yes, yes,"
Luka: "Now about your question... I was delivering some packages, and on my way, I saw a cat jumping on my way, and I got into an accident. "
Marinette: "Are you sure? Cuz the injuries you got are no minors. Also, you can stay here tonight and go back home tomorrow morning. "
Luka raised a brow and asked
Luka: "Aren't your parents home? Will it be okay?"
Marinette: "Yep! It's fine. Besides, they're not home. Besides, they'll be back in tomorrow noon."
Luka: "I see, then sorry for troubling you with me,
Marinette"
I quickly bought my hands in front of me and shook it while saying
Marinette: "No, no, it's quite alright. Besides, you need to take a rest. And are you hungry?"
Luka nodded a little
Luka: "A little"
I smiled and told him
Marinette: "Wait, I'll go and cook something for you. Do you want any specific food in mind?"
Luka shook his head and said
Luka: "Anything is fine, I have troubled you with enough with my presence, I don't want to trouble you anymore."
Marinette: "You aren't troubling me or anything. Quit thinking that, I'll go and get the food ready. be right back, feel free to do anything while I'm away, in case you're bored. "
with that, I went to make his food.
...After a while, I was done, and I quickly served the food in front of him....
Marrinette: Here you go!
Luka: Ah, thank you
He silently ate his food. After he was done, I told him to rest a bit while I took the dish to wash it. when I came back, I saw him sleeping peacefully. I leaned a bit towards his face and observed him.
'Wow, now that I took a closer look, he's quite handsome,' I thought.
After a second or so, I went to my bed as well after I turned the lights off.
{《The next morning》}
I woke up and heard some noises downstairs. Without a thought, I quickly went down to see that guy from yesterday was in the kitchen, making breakfast. He seems to notice me
Luka:Oh? Good morning, Marinette!
Marinette: Good morning. May I ask what you are doing?
Luka: Making breakfast..?
Marrinette: I can see that. Why aren't you resting? You're not supposed to be doing that.
I said quickly, taking over his place.
Marinette: You should go and take a seat, I'll do the rest
Luka: But -
Marinette: No buts! now go and rest, you're still injured
with a defeated sigh he went to the counter and sat at one of the stools.
You took over the kitchen and made the unfinished breakfast he was making.
After breakfast, he said he had to leave
you were quite not alright with the idea, but let him be anyway
Luka: well..I hope we'll meet soon, Marinette
Marinette: I'm looking forward for it
Luka gave you a gentle smile and left
