It had been almost a year since the Akuma incident and Adrien and Marinette had found themselves facing each other at the alter for their long awaited wedding day. Alya and Nino were expecting their first child in the next couple of months and Alya was working herself too hard and Nino was desperately trying to get her to relax.
Ladybug and Chat Noir had already had their public wedding a few months prior, covered off course by the lady-blog, but as their official names were not used it was an invalid wedding and more just for show for the public then anything else.
The whole day went by in a haze. Marinette was lying across a beautiful couch leaning against her husband as they watched Louie and Alya dancing and Nino trying to control the two of them. Adrien stroked Marinettes hair gently and kissing any part of her he could reach in the position they were in. Marinette seemed to make up her mind about something.
Looking back on this day in the years to come Marinette will always say "your meant to remember your wedding day, but it goes by so quickly, I just remember the happiness and the love. Oh and telling your father that I was pregnant again" her eyes always glinted maliciously remembering how Adrien reacted shocked and then over the moon
Marinette was spooning into her husband, it was 10pm and she was exhausted, as was he. It had been a long day of meetings and design touch ups ready fro the spring fashion show next week. Marinette looked across at the wall where one of her favourite wedding pictures had been put onto canvas for her. Around it were smaller canvases of other joyous moments in their lives.
It had been 14 years since they were married, she always wished she could remember more about the day and was always grateful that Alya and her parents and the photographer took so many pictures. Her clearest memory was on that white couch at the end of the day.
The low ceilinged, darkened room, lit up by disco lights from the dance floor in the centre. The white couch was a little way out of the lights so they could see but not clearly seen. Although many who did see offered to give them a private moment.
"Adrien" she had said, remembering her words exactly "what do you think about another baby?"
"mm?" he had hummed into her hair
"Adrien, I'm trying to say, I think I may be pregnant" She of course knew as she had taken a test that morning but she knew things could go wrong in the early days.
He was shocked at first and then elated. He had missed out on Louie as a baby and he vowed that this child he would get up every night and do every nappy change. He took those words back a few weeks later when the scan revealed they were having twins.
Marinette smiled to herself that she could rememberer that moment and that day so vividly but the wedding day was such a haze. Emma and Hugo had been born on time and perfectly healthy. She had attempted to breast feed them as she did with Louie but with two of them she found it too much and ended up combi feeding on both breast and bottles. Adrien was a superstar. He handed the company over for a whole 2 years to be a full-time dad with the twins and Marinette did the most important design work at home whilst leaving most of everything else up to their trusty team of employees.
They had so much wonderful support. She smiled to herself as she heard a bump from the room next to them.
"Looks like the kids are back from patrol." she whispered to her partner beside her.
Having passed the miraculous onto Emma and Hugo and Louie having his own gifts they were used to the odd bumps of landings. Marinette was happy that she could share that part of her life with her children, although it had terrified her at first when she thought about what she went through.
She was glad that at least her children were just patrolling and there was nothing untoward like akumas running around. Her life was peaceful, perfect and as she snuggled backwards into her loving husband she couldn't help wondering if anything could ever break them apart. She was indeed the luckiest girl in the world.
