Adrien couldn't help smiling as his thoughts wandered; he was waiting for his adorable wife to come home from work and their two sons to wander home from school, and all that he could think about were them.

Chloe was still as full of spunk as ever though through the years had softened a little; she'd actually mended her friendship with Sabrina after becoming Queen Bee and had managed to even become on speaking terms with Marinette though their identity reveals after defeating Hawkmoth had probably helped a lot with that.

It was a relief though when the five of them actually became closer, and it felt like he wasn't dealing with the fallout by himself.

They'd given Hawkmoth's Miraculous back to Master Fu with the peacock one that Adrien had found in his mom's old stuff though they didn't turn Hawkmoth back in.

For a while after that, he'd needed the support to mend his life, advice from listening ears, and the love and support of his whole group of friends.

His father had finally came around about five months later, and while Adrien couldn't say that he was unbelievably close with his father, he could say that they'd grown closer over the years.

Adrien smiled as he set the table though it only grew more when his wife sent him a text, 'Mind if I come home early today? It seems that we nearly have all of the paperwork done.'

He beamed, 'Sure, I've just been thinking of my little honeys anyway and would love to see you all sooner.'

'Chat, quit it.' He received, and he imagined that Chloe was rolling her eyes on the other end as she typed her response.

'But I'm Adrien, the man that you've loved since we were kids, the man that you married. Does it ring any bells, Chlo?' His smile only grew wider the more he typed.

'I'm taking the long route home to pick up our boys.' Chloe typed.

'You're no fun.' Adrien pouted as he moved to actually get started on dinner though he still sometimes fumbled and messed up recipes; he'd decided that he wanted to try out being a stay at home dad years ago, and his wife had actually encouraged him when she realized that was what he wanted though old habits on both of their ends died hard.

'Still you love me anyway.' Chloe sent, 'Can you invite Marinette to my all girls spa day in a few weeks? She can probably use a break, and I'd love to give this friendship another try. Plus her and Nath's little girl can come play at our house.'

'Sure, as long as Dad isn't keeping her too busy.' Adrien typed with ease.

'He's probably working her to death. Our fathers are such workaholics.' Chloe responded though he detected a hint of pride in her message anyway.

'They are, but you are too.' Adrien typed with a fond smile; his wife loved her work though she was slowly climbing to success as a politician. She didn't want to be mayor like her father, just sort of wanted to set out and see what she could do.

'I know, but someone has to provide for the queen.' Chloe typed, and Adrien rolled his eyes.

'I'm not the queen,you are, Queenie. It's in your name.' Adrien typed with ease.

'I'm not going to call you my kitten. Can you imagine how Ladybug would take that? That's her nickname for you and uncharted waters for me.' Chloe typed, and Adrien can just imagine the slight tightening up of her shoulders, and he was once again reminded of how strong willed she was as a teenager. It still came out in waves from her, but it wasn't as cold and bitter as it used to be.

'I'm sure she'd love it.' Adrien typed anyway.

'Oh, please, Adrikins. Don't you dare.' Chloe typed, and Adrien groaned; that old nickname was definitely not his favorite though whenever Chloe was particularly smug, she'd slip it in.

'I love you, honey, but please don't go there.' Adrien typed as he tried to focus on dinner, aware of the last time that he'd gotten a little too distracted and nearly burnt down their apartment; Chloe had never let him hear the end of that one, neither did Marinette or Alya or even Nino for that matter.

He didn't want to make that mistake ever again.

'I love you too, and I'm picking up our boys right now, see you home in a bit. Don't burn down the house as you think of your little honeys again, okay?' Chloe typed though the smugness in her tone even if it was only a text registered in her husband's mind with ease.

'I'm not, and it was only once. I'll see you guys soon. I love you all.' Adrien couldn't help but type though smiled even when he didn't get a response in the form of a text.

Chloe slipped into their house in a dark blue business suit that made her eyes pop and look lighter than they actually were with their two sons by her side.

Adrien turned off the burner as he stepped closer to her and gave her a kiss and gave both of his sons little forehead kisses.

"Alright, honeys. Dinner's almost done." His boys cheered while his wife rolled her eyes at him.

"Honeys sweet though you know that bees can sting." She pressed closer to Adrien to kiss his cheek before pulling away and under the observant gazes of their young sons.

"Why are we always called honeys or bees?" Their youngest asked.

Adrien smiled, "Because your mom is my queen bee."

Chloe rolled her eyes, "You wish. Paris already has the Queen Bee, who needs another? Besides, boys, you're my little kittens no matter what your dad says."

"So you won't be my honeybee?" Adrien asked her with a smile and hopeful looking green eyes.

"I'm more of a wasp, honey." Chloe smirked when Adrien beamed at the endearment.

"And I'm more of an alley cat." Adrien told her with a beam.

"You're more of a domesticated kitty, Adrien." Chloe leaned towards her husband to give him another kiss on the lips before he pulled away to pull dinner off of the stove.

"Only for my queen and our little honeys." Adrien spoke up with ease.

"You never did learn to quit, did you?" Chloe grumbled as she sat down at the table.

"Paris never needed quitters." Adrien's smile grew wider as he relaxed under his wife's gaze though he knew that in this instance she couldn't prove him wrong in the least.

"I love you too much for my own good." Chloe sighed.

"You always have." Adrien's eyes gleamed as he stared at her.

"At least you're the most devoted cat that I've seen." Chloe told him with a fond smile already creeping onto her face.

"And you're the sweetest bee that I've met." Adrien chimed in so very easily.

"I love you, Adrien." Chloe's lips pulled up into a wide smile.

"I love you too, Chlo." His smile and the sparkle in his eyes only further cemented the truth of his words for her.
