The day went by quickly as Marinette and Adrien spent their day roaming around the metropolis that was their home in the heavens.
To Adrien's relief, Marinette's injuries were close to complete healing. Mere scratches now taking place from the once cuts that bared her skin.
So, with her wounds close to completing full healing, he thought it was a wondrous day to take his lady out for the day. As well as enjoy their time together before their parents return in the early evening.
Yet, as quickly as the morning sun rose, days must fall as the sun started making its descent for the day. With evening approaching, the young god looked over at his lady as exhaustion was evident on her features.
Calling Plagg for his transformation, Adrien switched to Chat Noir as he scooped his princess in his arms, no disagreement coming from Marinette as he began vaulting himself and his lady along the granite roofs of homes. Thankfully the homes were built sturdy for the gods that created them. Last thing Chat wanted was to fall through the roof of an unexpected home owner. Especially when a majority of the homes were built to be grande and majestic for the god or gods living within.
One day, he will build a home grande to fit and be worthy for his lady. A home full of warmth and love. After all, his princess only deserve the best things in their immortal life.
And maybe one day, the cat will be no mere stray of destruction, but claimed.
Seeing the Dupain-Cheng's residents in the distance, Chat launched himself into further leaps until he landed softly onto the soft pillowed ground of clouds. That was one of the beauties in the metropolis they lived in. Seeing the different arts of sculpted designs made from the clouds and manifestation of other materials that build this sanctuary; it showed Chat how Marinette always became inspired during her designing and creations. There was much beauty around their home once you took a moment to open your eyes and look.
Smiling, Chat entered the Dupain-Cheng home and made his way to the third floor where Marinette's room resides. With her still held in his arms, Chat carried the sleeping goddess up the stairs to place her in the comforts of her bed.
Entering their daughter's bedroom, Tom and Sabine Dupain-Cheng find their daughter lying peacefully on her bed and under the covers. Beside her, they found Adrien, in his Chat Noir form snuggled and embracing their daughter protectively.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Sabine brushed Chat's blond locks away from his face. The small action causing Chat to nuzzle and dig his face further in the crook of Marinette's neck. Smiling, Sabine repeated the motion as she brushed her daughter's midnight locks away from the front of her face. The light action waking Marinette.
Peeking up to see her parents, she greeted them with a smile.
"Welcome back, maman, papa."
"Hello, sweetheart. Sorry for waking."
"It's alright, maman. How's the bakery franchise on earth doing?" She asked.
"Wonderfully. I see your adopted cat is with you again." Her mother giggled seeing the two together.
Marinette scoffed, "I don't know about adopted, but he sure acts like a stray."
"Others would think otherwise." Marinette saw her mother and father smirk.
Turning her head slightly over her shoulder, Marinette saw the mass of blond against her back and neck. A small vibration against her back signally her love's purring. A smile of adoration stretching along her lips.
"Alright, he's my adopted cat." Marinette turns back around and snuggles against her pillows.
Her mother and father bend over to leave a kiss on their daughter's forehead. As they walked towards the door to leave her room, they caught a faint statement from their daughter that brought smiles to the couple.
"My adopted chaton. One day, I'll put a collar on you, minou."
As Marinette slowly dozed off again, Chat wrapped his tail around her calf as his arms embraced her closer.
