Gabriel sat in his chair and looked out the giant glass window. He didn't show any emotion on his face, just a blank stare. He noticed a tall figure in a suit walk through his doorway, "Felix."
"Uncle," Felix's voice was monotone and he was also expressionless, "The news of your great escape has been broadcasted all through the city of Paris"
Gabriel took a deep breath as he turned around to look at his nephew, "Is that so?" He stood up and walked towards a picture that he had of his wife and son. He found it in Adrien's room that night he escaped. "Felix, Why don't you visit that Marinette Dupain-Cheng?"
Felix's eyes widened just a bit, "Uncle?"
"You could pretend to be her friend, maybe get on her good side and when she least expects it. Snatch her, that'll get Chat Noir's miraculous back."
"What about you?" Felix watched his uncle pick up the picture.
Gabriel looked at the picture for a moment, "I have some… business to take care of." He placed the picture back down and walked back over to his desk and chair, "But first, I need to figure out a new identity. Maybe you as well, Adrien might think it's a little suspicious that his cousin has come to Paris just to talk to his old classmate."
"Okay," Felix bit his lip, "From now on, I'll be Brett Bell."
"I'll be Raphael Bell," Gabriel turned around and stood up from his chair, "Alright, Felix, I have some business to attend to. I'll message you an address when I can confirm you have a new apartment." Felix turned around and walked out of his office.
Gabriel looked towards a hotel, one that he knew his beloved son was staying at. He learned about Adrien's recent request to stay in Paris a bit longer and had a feeling that Marinette Dupain-Cheng was the possible reason.
…
Adrien groaned as he rolled over in bed, Marinette gently shaking him awake. "Adrien, You need to wake up."
He opened his eyes and looked up at the beautiful blue eyes staring down at him. His heart started to flutter and he smiled as he looked at her, "Hey, Mari."
She didn't look amused, "Alya and Nino have been calling your phone nonstop for a few hours now, she wouldn't tell me why but she said that you need to get there as soon as possible."
Adrien groaned as he sat up and looked at his phone and all of his missed calls. "I'm gonna call her," He said and pressed the ring button on her contact. Marinette stood up and gathered all of their clothes that had been scattered around the room.
Adrien and Marinette had been staying in the hotel for the past two nights, and Adrien would officially be leaving tomorrow. She turned around and looked at him. The sunlight reflected into the room and onto his skin. He wasn't looking at her, but just out the window as Alya picked up the phone. She watched as Adrien could talk and how his jawline would move.
She slowly moved towards Adrien, he looked at her as she crawled onto the bed. He smiled as she climbed over his and started to kiss his jawline, "Do you want me to come over?" He bit his lip as Marinette's was constantly pressed to his neck. He threw his head back as one of Marinette's wandering hands found his member, "Okay, I'll be there in a half an hour."
Marinette took the phone away from his hands and started to kiss him, she ended the call for him and placed the phone on the side table. Adrien flipped the both of them over and started to kiss her passionately.
…
Adrien walked into Alya's house and saw the three of them sitting on the couch watching TV. Adrien raised his eyebrow, "What the hell?"
Nino looked over at him and smiled, "Hey, Adrien, glad you joined the party." He stood up and walked towards Adrien, noticing something out of place. "Who have you been fucking?"
Adrien's face went red as he tried to recover the hickies with his scarf. Alya looked over at him and saw a lil sneak peak of Marinette's recent sex life. "Damn, Marinette's turned into a leach instead of a ladybug."
Lila snickered as she looked over at Adrien, "She's not the same sweet princess that you thought she was, now is she?"
Adrien ignored all of their comments, "Why did you want me here?"
"We have to do something with her!" Alya groaned as she pointed to Lila, "You leave tomorrow afternoon, Adrien. We don't know when you'll get back!"
"She's literally just been sitting on our couch watching Criminal Minds," Nino grabbed Adrien, "She won't let us change the channel, because if we do she'll start screaming bloody fucking murder!"
"Hey, Shut your mouth!" Lila yelled as she looked over at them, "Daddy Rossi is about to talk and I won't be able to hear him with your loud mouths."
Adrien rolled his eyes and walked over to Lila, "If you scream, I will kill you." He took the remote and shut the TV off.
Lila shot daggers towards Adrien, "You think you're so sly aren't you, Adrien?" She smirked as she leaned forward, "You're gonna be just like your daddy once you're all grown up." She spat.
Adrien's rage took over as he grabbed Lila by the throat, "Tell me that again, I dare you."
She started coughing as she grabbed Adrien's hands, "You're already like your daddy."
"Adrien!" Alya pushed him and Lila fell from his hands, "What the hell?"
Nino looked at the scene in front of him, "Lila's just trying to get on your bad side, Adrien."
"No duh, really?" Adrien whipped his head around and looked at Nino, "Would've never guessed." He looked at Lila, "If we let her go, she's gonna tell my father about all of us. I'll take her back to America with me."
All three of them looked at Adrien, "What?" He could tell that all three of them were thinking the exact same thing.
"Adrien, are you sure you're okay?" Alya placed her hand on his back and raised her eyebrow, "You've been talking a lot of nonsense."
"Yeah, I'm fine." He pushed Alya's arm from his back and walked towards Lila. "Come on, Lila, I promise you that I won't hurt you anymore. You can go to America, the land of the free. You can forget about Hawk Moth and my father, you can live your own life and be a star." He gave her a charming smile as he stood insanely close to her face.
She really took his words in, the thought of living a new life as someone else." She looked up at him and slowly nodded her head. The thought of fame running over her, and the easiest way to that was from the enemy that stood in front of her, "On one condition." She smirked.
Adrien raised his eyebrow, "What's that condition?"
"Fame won't be easy to achieve, unless you're internally connected to that person." She laughed.
"Unless you're internally connected to that person?" Adrien was thoroughly confused, but Alya understood what she meant.
The rage was starting to bubble in her, as she knew exactly what would be taken away with that one condition. "She wants to get married," Alya crossed her arms, "To you."
Adrien was purely shocked by that, "What?"
"Come on, Adrien." She squinted her eyes, "We'd be the hottest couple in hollywood."
Adrien took a deep breath, understanding what would exactly happen if he had to agree to that. "Fine," He whispered, "I'll marry you."
"Adrien?" Alya was surprised and grabbed Adrien and dragged him into her bed room. She guided him over to her bed.
"Dude, no." Nino looked at his friend as he closed the door. Adrien sat down on the edge of their bed as they both stood in front of them with their arms crossed.
"It's gonna be the easiest way, she won't put up a fight. I could have eyes on her 24/7, plus she never said that I still couldn't date anyone else."
"Adrien, come on. Think about this!" Alya was about to burst just like a volcano, "If you marry that hoe, you'd never be able to actually fall in love with someone."
"It's just marriage, she didn't say anything about not dating on the side." Adrien smirked as he knew that this was just for show, he had seen it all before. "It's common in hollywood, the hottest couple out there. That they don't really love each other, just gains them more fame."
Alya looked down at her feet, "Is that really what you want to live? The life with a woman that you don't love? To lose every woman that comes into your life just because you can't promise them a real relationship? What's gonna happen when Marinette falls in love with you again? You just gonna keep fucking her until she wants the one thing that you can't give her."
Adrien bit his lip as he looked away from the both of them, "Come on, Adrien. You really need to think about this?"
"You really think that if I take Lila to America she won't find some blonde surfer boy? She's gonna find someone. She's gonna end up asking for a divorce, It's okay. It's my life and my career right now."
Alya shook her head, "Fine, do what you want." She opened the door and walked back to the living room. Adrien followed them and walked over to Lila, "Fine, I'll agree. You're just gonna stay here tonight, while I pack for tomorrow. We leave at noon."
Lila rolled her eyes, "Good, turn on the TV again." Adrien grabbed the remote and put the TV back on.
Adrien walked over to Alya, "I'll see you later. I gotta go pack." He gave Alya a quick hug and walked over to the door. Nino waved to him and made sure to lock the door after he left.
