NO comment on how late i am. Just.. here.
(Saturday, one day after mega reveal)
Adrien was nervous. Nervous, because It's his first date (official, that is) EVER. Nervous, because it's with the LOVE OF HIS LIFE. Of-fureaking- course he'd be nervous.
He fixed his black and green leather jacket (a gift from ladybug, pre-reveal) that he was too scared to wear before, a white button up shirt to go along with it underneath. He was wearing his usual jeans, now paired with black and green sneakers to match. Of course, it was really Plagg and Nino, along with Alya on Face time who helped him pick out the outfit. And to finish it all up, he ruffled his hair, making it more or less Chat Noir-esque. Alya had been skeptical, but Plagg had reassured them that no one should be able to know.
"Alya, Plagg, I'm so proud of our little boy. He's already going on his first date!" Nino wiped his "tears" of joy.
"Mhm, they grow up so fast." Alya joined the parent act.
"C'mon you guys" He looked at the little god. "Plagg! Do something!"
Plagg's eyes twinkled
"Make sure she doesn't get grossed by you, kid, we don't want that now, do we?"
"Plaaaaagg!"
"What, you told me to do something, so I joined 'em."
"No more top quality camembert for you!"
"As long as it's camembert, I don't care! And seeing you like this is worth it!"
Adrien huffed, completely exasperated by the three.
"I hate you."
"Aw, we love you too, man"
"Alright," Adrien started, ignoring everyone, and demanding attention "let's get everything straight. I'm going to pick up Mari at 2, and we are going to have ice cream at the ice cream place near the trocadero, then we'll go around Paris, maybe take her shopping, then we'll go to the fair at the park on the other side that starts at 4, hope to avoid anyone from class (especially Chloe, Alya added) and then surprise her with a semi-fancy dinner and top it all off with asking her to be my girlfriend and kiss her, whichever comes first, that is, and hope for the best!"
One thing Adrien didn't include in the plan was the ring that sat in the inner pocket of his jacket. It isn't that kind, lord no they were too young (even though he loved her enough for it), but a promise ring. He actually had been planning on all three rings as a set for a long time. So far, only the promise ring was complete though, the rest had a long way to come.
His father was surprisingly happy about his decision, and even allowed him to spoil her as much as he wanted. He was also impressed with Adrien's ring designs, and even took care of the first one as Adrien was still a minor.
'Now, let's just pray that all goes well.'
Marinette pulled her pale pink socks, before finishing her outfit of with black ballet flats. She stepped back to admire her creation on herself. The white blouse with pink front and red and black trimming, and collar was paired off with a high-waisted black skirt, which was tight at her hips, and the rest in red and black polka dot fabric flowing to just above her knee. Her hair was let loose for once, with a red ribbon adorning her head. She had practically no makeup on, basically just winged liner and lip balm, and a light dusting of powder. Over all, she looked adorable. At least that's what Alya told her.
But even she had to admit, she looked a little cute, while Tikki insisted looked more than just that.
"Adrien won't be able to take his eyes of you girl!" Alya practically yelled, just finished with her talk with the boys. "He already knows how lucky he is, now you should too Mar."
"You look wonderful, mon petit, I don't doubt a word Alya said!" Sabine popped her head up the trap door.
"Yep! He'll be looking for his jaw after he sees you!" Tikki nuzzled her chosen's cheek.
"Really?" Marinette blushed, a bit overwhelmed.
"Of course Marinette, I'm pretty sure you could just wake up with drool on your face and he'd still think you're the most beautiful creature on earth. Heck, I bet he wishes for that day to come when he'd be able to see you like that!" Alya grinned.
Tom popped up beside his wife, chuckling "I don't mind if he does right now either, I trust the boy."
Mari just reddened even more, and at this point she wanted the earth to swallow her up. God, why were her parents and best friend so.. so.. she didn't have a word for it. But she loved them nonetheless.
She put her little gift in her purse. It was another scarf, this time in green and black. Knowing her kitty, he'd probably get her something super expensive, and try to spoil her. This was the least she could do, even though she knew he'd love it either way.
She smiled, and with that, she was done. She heard the doorbell ring, and ran down stairs with thumbs up from every one. She opened the door, and smiled wider.
Adrien's heart beat quickened, as he took in the sight of the angel in front of him. If he thought she rocked pig tails, well, loose hair might just become his new favorite
With cheeks tinted pink, he handed her a bouquet of flowers. White, pink and red roses to be exact.
"Thanks mon Chaton, they're lovely."
"For you, anything. And that's just the beginning ma princesse!"
"Alright, let me put the flowers up, you kids should head out" Sabine took the flowers from her daughter, giving both the teens a quick hug. Tom came next, handing them both some cookies(along with some cheese topped crackers).
Adrien held out one arm, and said, "Shall the fair maiden give me the honor of escorting her?"
Looping her arm through his, she replied, "She shall" Both beaming brightly at each other.
Unbeknownst to the teens, the adults, and Alya, were looking at them.
"Tom, you owe me foot massage." Was all Sabine said.
