Everything Changes –Chapter Five

(Author's note: I am skipping ahead to Marinette's week ten obstetrician appointment because it has a more interesting storyline PS. Ladybug has not been on patrol for the last three weeks)

Adrien POV

"How are you feeling, Mari?" I asked, standing at the doorway.

"Oh, this week has been much better than last week, thanks Adrien." Marinette replied with a smile on her face. She opened the fridge and took out some tomato juice and milk. She then combined the two together and took a sip.

"Want some?" She offered. I refused politely.

"Listen Mari, I can stay for your obstetrician appointment but I have to leave straight after." I informed her.

"That's ok. I have to leave after too… for the first time in three weeks," She replied.

"Well, shall we head off?" I suggested holding out my hand.

"We shall," she replied, taking my hand. As we were heading out the door, I blanked out a bit, and kissed her. Just on the cheek, but still! Her cheeks heated up and turned a deep crimson. So did mine. I giggled nervously and kept walking. As Mari walked in front of me I couldn't help but notice she was starting to show, and I smiled.

The appointment was alright. The baby was as fine as a 2.5-month-old could be. Mari's doctor just asked us a few health related questions, and then we were out of there. I felt so bad dropping Mari at home and leaving her like that. But, a cat's got to do his job, you know?

As I approached the usual meeting point, I saw a familiar figure standing there, with her cute pigtails and teeny, tiny baby bump.

"Hey Marin-" I stopped mid-sentence as she stepped into the light. Not Marinette. Ladybug. It's funny how they look so alike from a far. Wait…teeny, tiny baby bump? Investigation time. I walked over to Ladybug with a sly smile on my face.

"So Ladybug?" I said a little too strangely. "Haven't seen you in a while. What's it been like three weeks?" She rolled her eyes at me.

"Yeah about three weeks. Why kitty?" She replied, raising an eyebrow.

"Oh, I'm just wondering why I haven't seen you in so long…" I smirked.

"Chat! I was sick! Throwing up and aches! You know what I mean!" Ladybug defended.

"Could they possibly have been morning sickness and pregnancy aches?" I was now laughing. Her face went white as a ghost and her eyes widened.

"How did you know?!" She quietly exclaimed.

"My lady," I laughed, and draped one arm over shoulder while other lay on her stomach. It felt really wrong, but it's hard to care when you're laughing this hard. "I believe you are starting to show…" I was laughing so hard.

"Wait, Ladybug! Who the hell is the father?" I was suddenly very interested in her love life.

"I don't think I should say. Now stop being so nosy, Chat!" She removed my arm from her shoulder and flicked my hand off her stomach. I was still laughing so hard though.

"I can't believe this! Ladybug; a pregnant superhero! That's fabulous!" Like, I should be talking. Ladybug scowled at me.

"And this is why I didn't tell you!" She suddenly grabbed my ear and pulled really hard, dragging me away.

"Now, let's get back to patrol."

Little did we know that, in the building opposite us, a certain blonde brat had taken a photo. Chloe Bourgeois looked down at her phone screen and opened the photo she had just taken. A shot of me with one arm draped around Ladybug while the other rested on her stomach. Her pregnant stomach. The blonde chuckled to herself.

"How interesting…"

Don't judge! Hope you like it!

Sticks and Stones don't normally hurt me…

But words sure can hella hurt!
