Marinette could say she was living a perfect happy life, having all anyone could wish for. A very successful career as a designer working mostly on formal ware design, such as haute couture. She had managed to create her own clothing line with her own exclusive brand, having several stores not only in France but all around the world.

She travelled a lot. Often, Alya would be by her side being her personal manager and a freelancer journalist.

Marinette was even married, not having children yet. Her love life was great, but that was it. Great. If she had to be honest, it wasn't as fulfilling as she had imagined it to be.

"Good morning my love." The red haired man said kissing her softly. "You're already back from New York? Weren't you supposed to be back tonight?"

"We finished the meetings earlier then expected so I decided to catch the first flight here." She smiled.

They sat silently eating their breakfast enjoying the sound of the tv playing on the background, the silence wasn't uncomfortable, but it was the proof even though they were married their relationship wasn't as it should be. After 3 years of being married, Marinette got used to the quiet company of her husband, she always acossiated it with his quiet nature and busy life. Nathaniel was a well known comic artist, chosing to spend most of his days on his studio at home. He had managed to create a best selling comic and wanted to use the opportunity to grow as an artist. Not that she would complain, she was quiet as well and her schedule begged for a day off. Marinette had a lot of work on her hands.

"It's been 10 years since Paris has last seen our heroes, Ladybug and Chat Noir. Today marks the day of their last fight against-" Marinette looked up at the news report, it had been a while since she last heard the name of her alter ego.

"Ladybug, huh?" Nathaniel commented looking at the screen as well. "It's already been 10 Years, time sure flew by."

"It seems like it was just yesterday, doesnt it? Ladybug and Chat Noir jumping on the roof, protecting Paris agaisnt the akumatised victims." Her voice was quieter then usual. She was well aware of the time that had past. She dreamed of her ladybug days every night, of Tikki, she missed seeing Alya as Rena Rouge even though Alya didnt knew her identity but beside that, she missed Chat. He that was always there for her. She had looked for him just after Hawkmoth dissapeared. She never got to know what happened to him, he simply dissapeared one day and with him, Chat Noir. Rena Rouge and Queen Bee had helped her look for him. At first, they thought he had got Chat Miraculous, but they fast discarded that option. Something else must have happened . And they realised it. The day Hawkmoth dissapeared so did Chat and soon their miraculous.

Marinette realised later on Hawkmoth might have been defeated because even master Fu was no where to be found. It was like Paris' super heroes had never existed.

"Mari?" The man by her side called making her come back to reality. "Everything okey? You seem a little lost in your thoughts."

"I'm fine. I was just remembering our schoold days." And Tikki. And eveything she never told him about related to her past. Thats what she wanted to say but even though she trusted him she didn't wanted or had the courage to reveal him her double life.

"Talking about our school days, you received this letter. I think its an offer." He handed the letter catching her attention.

As she held the letter, Marinette wide open her eyes as she sees the company name Agreste.

"Adrien came here personally to give it to you but you weren't here. He heard about your success and I think he wants to model your brand. Apparently the Agreste company has had their eyes on you for a while." He kissed her forehead leaving to his studio. "I have a deadline tomorrow."

"Good luck." She said as he walked away.

After Nathaniel closed the door Marinette found herself spacing out. Adrien wanted to work with her. He was gone from her life a long time ago. He went missing for some time after middle school, deciding to dedicate his time to his father company afterwards. He didn't show up at her wedding or Nino's. But now, her former crush decided to get back in her life like Ladybug and Chat Noir just did by appearing in the news report.

The past seem to want it's place back in her future, she was just not aware how much that past would resurf in it.
