i answered this already but i founds the intial discord thread i wrote this in (shout out to @ghostlyhamburger who i talked to about it) and here's another idea i was going to include
So the original idea is the psych tells them to cuddle and share a bed (again i could not find a legitimate reason kjdshfkjds maybe the psych thinks they are just in love but scared idk this is fic leave me alone) and them cuddling is actually the BEST sleep they've ever had and it feels magical and then it's a little bit new and scary but they love it and they get really touchey feely.
And then the next week they aren't allowed to touch at all. And then they are MISERABLE as a result
Mari reaches the point of cranky and horny frustration and wants to break the rules so badly because she needs proper sleep but Adrien is the kind of person who reads a manual three times before unpacking the parts so he's like no mari we gotta listen to the therapist!!! What if we fail therapy!!!!!
Week 2 ends with both of them ambushing the other and attacking for hugs in the apartment. And kissy kiss
There was also meant to be this really angsty moment where Chat has another close call and all mari wants to do is hug him and damn the rules but they're important to him so would he hate her.
Meanwhile Adrien is just desperate for a hug but doesn't know how to ask cause mari was always the hugger and he doesn't know where to start, how to ask for a hug?
So the miraculous ladybugs save the day and Chat is back and Ladybug runs to him.
But then she stops and he doesn't move any closer, and they just stare at each other across the distance.
Man now that im remembering this prompt it is soooooo delicious hmmm. But again, stupid therapy ethics would never allow this dskjghsd`
