A/N- *slides in all fancy like* IM BACK, WHO MISSED ME?! PROBABLY EVERYONE THAT HATES CLIFFHANGERS! and there is NO little cliffhanger lovers running around, I was just terribly lazy. but as I was writing this A/N I was struck with the idea behind today's chapter. SO TIMESKIP TIME
;3
"Argh . . . It's too early for this . . ." Marinette grumbled as her husband laughed at her dispear.
"Whatever time it is, it's too early for you!" Adrien laughed.
"Oh shut up," Marinette stuck her tongue at him.
She stretched, cracking the bones along her spine just right.
"Oh hey, when's your next cycle? You haven't tried to kill me over a ship yet," Adrien called from their kitchen.
Wait. Her cycle? Oh no, no, no, no! Marinette pushed herself fully out of bed and ran to where her tracking calendar is.
She quietly counted the days and to the quick conclusion that her period, her horrible period is: late.
"Honey? Everything okay? I have to leave soon, but I can call in sick if you need me," Adrien appeared in the doorway with a delicous aroma hanging around him with a small box if treats in hand.
"No, no, no! I'm fine! You should get going, after all those treats won't eat themselves! And they're for your students to eat! We don't want them to get cold!" Marinette pushed her husband along to the door of their penthouse.
It was always Adrien's dream to be a teacher so when finally took it, Marinette plus company were thrilled. Sure Gaberial was upset at first but Marinette managed win him over with the idea. If Adrien does what he loves, it will make him look better for accpecting it, unlike Andre Bouregis when his daughter, Cholé ran off with some random guy. Or something along those lines.
And ever since telling him that some mornings she didn't have enough time to eat breakfast, Adrien demanded to learn how to bake. Marinette obliged, confused at first but won over at the action of her husband bringing his hungry students breakfast.
Could he not be perfect for a minute?!
Marinette brought up her phone and texted the group chat,
Fashion Queen- ladies, please come over now! we have a MIA period here
Will report anything and everything- what?! are you joking?! im on my way now!
Preicous baby that must be protected at all times- let me drop off the kids at daycare and go the pharmacy and I'll be there
Caution, keep away from competions- WHat? are you serious?! HAH! now if you're actually pregnant I'll get ten bucks!
Flower- EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Mirror- Rose and I are on our way
Marinette smiled at her friend's reactions and chuckled at Alix's comment. Leave her and Kim alone and you'll get two outcomes; bed, or betting.
Looks like the latter this time.
Her buzzer began to go off and Marinette could barely make her cereal as her friends flooded the building.
Alya was first, bouncing off the ways, her long hair now kept in a pony at all times. She no longer wore glasses, she had gotten surgery a few years ago.
"MARI!" Alya tackled her as Alix, Rose, and Juleka came up.
"We hurry here as soon as we saw the text," Rose hugged her, her hair now longer and her wife's hair shorter.
"Thanks for coming. And Alix no I don't know," Marinette stopped the pinkette in her tracks, leaving her open mouthed.
"Melyene is coming later right? After dropping off her kiddos right?" Alya wondered as they sat around her coffee table, playing Uno.
"And after she drops by the pharmacy," Juleka set down some cards, "Uno."
"Nooo! Everyone, your target is Juleka!" Alix cried.
Marinette rolled her eyes and insisted, "Here Juleka, go again."
Alix shouted at her but Juleka whitened. The reverse card was blue and she reached out into the deck and after ten cards she laid down a 4, "Red."
Everyone looked Rose as she placed down another, "Blue."
Alya annouced, slapping down another 4, "YELLOW!"
Alix groaned as she collected her cards and Marinette released a sigh of relief. She had a 4 in hand, ready to use it if nesscary.
"Oh yeah, please be at peace while I'm losing," Alix grumbled.
Marinette placed down a yellow one when the buzzer rang out.
"Oh! Melyene's here!" Marinette cheered, getting up to let her in. After a good five minutes the small mother walked in her little ones.
"I thought you were dropping them off at daycare?" Alya looked at Melyene supicously.
"I was, but a gas pipe broke last night! The whole area is closed off as they fix it so, Micheal and Michaela are here," Melyene placed her bag on the counter, pulling out a small box.
Melyene handed the box to her and Marinette gulped as she headed to the bathroom, her friends following her.
Little Micheal and Michaela sat on the couch with their toys, watching the crowd of adults curiously.
"Mama? Why are we here at Auntie Mari's house?" asked the older twin, Micheal.
"She has a slight problem and Mama is helping her," Melyene explained to the twins.
"Why? Is Unlce Addy being mean to her?" Michaela demanded.
They couldn't say Adrien's full name so they just called him 'Addy' and it's harilous. Adrien takes in stride and calls himself that too. In fact even Rose and Juleka's ten year old daughter and eight year old boy calls him that. And she was sure once Alya's little baby started talking, she had no doubt that he would call Adrien, Uncle Addy too.
Marinette drank some water and waited for the urge to pee to come up.
After thinking of water related thoughts Marinette quickly peed on the stick and flushed the toliet before washing her hands and walking out of the restroom.
They placed the stick on a paper towel and Michaela frowned, "That smells like pee pee. Micheal did you pee yourself again?"
"I did not Michaela shut up!"
"No you shut up!"
"No you sh-"
"HOW ABOUT YOU BOTH SHUT UP?" Alix yelled, making them both shut up.
"Jeez, raising those two on your own . . . I couldn't imagine how it feels," Alix shook her head and Melyene.
Melyene gave a weak smile playing with the large wedding band around her neck, "I do what I can."
The room fell silent as the memories of the crash and funeral fell over them. Ivan and Melyene had just learned about the twins and were overjoyed by it. Then a few weeks later, Ivan left on a business trip to Australia. During the flight an unexpected thunderstorm came flying out of no where. One of the lightening bolts had struck the plane's wing and sent them spiralling down into a forest, killing the passenagers, and the pilots.
They managed to salvage some things, and Ivan's ring, was one of them, now reresting on Melyene's collarbone.
"He would want to see these two troublemakers grow up," Melyene whispered, still playing with the ring.
The children thankfully didn't notice the change in the astromsphere and Marinette leaped up, "Here, I'll go make you all something to eat or drink. It's early after all."
The group nodded and the twins began to shout over each other in an attempt to get their wanted snack.
She returned to the living area and passed out the food and drinks.
"Mari, we haven't looked at it yet but . . . It's finished." Alya told her.
Marinette gulped and reached out for the test. Her future, her family all of it was going to be changed by this test.
A/N- just cause I was gone for a while doesn't mean I'm not going to Cliffhang you guys. it's in my name. also if you have to pee during or after sorry not sorry.
