Adrien pressed his back against the door, closing his eyes. He breathed slowly, in...out...in...out. He couldn't cry. He couldn't. He wouldn't. He let out a loud sigh as he unlocked the stall door and as he stepped out the washroom, his melancholy expression was replaced with his usual bright smile.

He zipped around the crowd, making his way back to Nino, Alya, and Marinette. They greeted him happily although Adrien could still see Marinette's cheeks stained with dry tears.

"How much time left?" Adrien asked as he hugged Nino for what seemed like the millionth time that day.

"An hour and a half" Nino responded, his voice cracking.

"Well," Marinette wiped her cheeks, sniffing, "let's spend this last hour having some fun,huh?" she shot a bright smile at Alya and Nino and they returned it.

"I saw a restaurant just across the street. We can spend time there" Nino suggested.

"How about the café a few hallways away" Alya piped in

"Or we coukd sit here and hang out. Like we always did at Marinette's." Adrien added. He turned to Marinette with a huge smile, "Remember those days?"

"How could I forget" Marinette said with a sad laugh.

"Hang out here, it is. C'mon, there's 4 seats over there, by that woman with her children" Alya pointed across the airport waiting area. The friends followed Alya and took their seats. Adrien and Marinette helped Alya and Nino with their luggage.

They were at the airport in Bordeaux, where they had all been visiting Nino's family. Marinette and Adrien had the flight back to Paris.

Nino and Alya, however, were not going back to the city of love. Instead, they both had a flight to Montréal, Canada, where they were each going to university to study Music,Film and Journalism.

Adrien and Marinette were going to a local university in Paris to study Design,Culinary Arts, Music and Astrophysics. (Mostly because of their superhero identities but no one knew of that)

They took the seat next to the woman with her toddlers. The children ran around the tired looking woman, causing quite the ruckus. Seeing how tired the woman was, Adrien decided to help.

He crouched down next to them, smiling his mist friendly smile. "Hey, little dudes"

"Hi, Mr." a little boy with blazing orange hair spoke up

"I'm Adrien. What's your name?"

"I'm Dex"

"And I'm Ethan" a black haired boy called.

"And I'm Aless" the oldest looking, orange haired girl said"

"Well, you see your mom?"

"Yeah"

"Doesn't she look tired?"

"Hm?" Ethan looked at his mother comically, cocking his head, as if examining her, "Oh! Yeah!"

"Now, you don't want to bother her, do you?" Marinette said, from behind Adrien as she crouched as well

"No!" the three children shouted in unision.

"Shh!" Marinette said lightly, looking at their mother dramatically, who was playing along, pretending to sleep. She turned to look back at the children glancing back at the mother as if to reassure that she was asleep.

"No, we don't" the kids whispered.

"Okay, then we gotta be quiet, okay?" Adrien joined in again, whispering.

"Do you guys wanna play a game?" Marinette asked, whispering herself.

"Yeah!" The kids whisper shouted.

"Okay, pretend that your mommy is a evil spy. And we are good spies. We need to talk really quietly so that the evil spy doesn't hear us. Okay?"

The kids nodded. Adrien glanced back at the mom, who was actually asleep now, probably tired from the loud children.

"Okay. Let's start...now" Marinette said, dramatically.
