Tikki floated up to Marinette's balcony hoping to give Marinette her gift. The Kwagatama was very important in the Kwami realm but Tikki didn't know how Marinette would feel about it.

"Marinette, I have a gift for you!" Tikki said smiling before spitting out a charm into Marinette's hands. Marinette looked at the charm weirdly probably because it just spewed out of her Kwami's mouth.

"All of the past Ladybug's are in this one charm?" Marinette asked and Tikki nodded. Marinette hugged her Kwami before yelling was heard from the street below her.

"Come on Marinette, hurry up!" it was Jon standing there with his hands on his hips looking up at her.

"Be right there Jon," Marinette yelled back rolling her eyes. "He has to go to Adrien's photoshoot or something and wants me to come with him," Marinette said laughing.

"Then shouldn't you get going, you don't want Jon to be late," Tikki exclaimed pushing Marinette.

"It's a cover Tikki, Jon is throwing me a surprise party!" Marinette said and Tikki looked at her confused. "Yesterday, Juleka was using a bike pump for something, Nino was listening to my favorite song, and Jon was talking to Adrien but Adrien got super flustered when I walked into the room," Marinette counted off all of the evidence.

"Maybe Juleka has a bike, Nino likes that song, and Adrien might have a crush on Jon and didn't want to be interrupted?" Tikki asked tilting her head.

"Nino hates that song and Jon was freaking out too so there's no way that he was flirting with my cousin. I also caught him texting Damian and he threw his phone across the room. He's always caught off guard when he's hiding something, think about it Tikki, he has super hearing," Marinette said going to open the door to the bakery.

"Still doesn't add up," Tikki said and Marinette threw the door open.

"Hey mom, dad do you know anything about Jon throwing me a surprise party?" Marinette asked and her father was pretending to be confused.

"Jon, which Jon again?" Tom asked and the door to the bakery opened up.

"Sweetie, you're overdoing it, Jon your nephew," Sabine said and Jon walked into the bakery resting his elbow on his aunt's shoulder.

"Jon, we haven't seen him in years," Tom said before looking over at his nephew who had the most wtf uncle look on his face.

"Alright, thanks Uncle Tom, come on Marinette, we're going to be late," Jon said pulling on his cousin's hand and bumping into someone. He turned around and saw his Great Aunt Gina.

"Jonathan, Marinetta!" Gina said pulling Marinette and Jon into a hug crushing them under her grandmotherly love. "Jonathan, how is Martha? My sister hasn't called or written in forever," Gina asked hugging Jon again.

"She's great, she was a little sick a few weeks ago but she's feeling better," Jon said losing oxygen slowly.

.....................................

Gina had managed to win over the cousin's with her sad grandmother eyes and now they were spending the day doing the exact opposite of what they wanted to be doing. Jon felt like a little kid and Marinette was just embarrassed.

They were on their way to get ice cream but Jon's phone went off and he started panicking. "Um, Great Aunt Gina?" Jon asked carefully.

"You can call me grandma my sweet Jonathan," Gina said pinching Jon's cheeks.

"Well you see, one of our friends has a photoshoot that I have to be at in fifteen minutes and he told me to bring Marinette," Jon said and Gina sighed.

"If you must go then you can go," Gina said the cousins cheered and hugged her.

"Thank you so much!" Jon said looking up at her grabbing Marinette's hand and running off with her. "We'll see you later I promise!"

Gina walked back to the bakery and saw her son sitting on top of the trash trying to hide something. She walked up the stairs and reached into her candy tin to get some of Marinette's favorite candy but saw that there were a bunch of them were spit back out.

.....................................

Marinette arrived at the party and searched for Damian but he wasn't there. She laughed and got presents but looked at Jon wondering where his best friend was.

Her thoughts were interrupted when a woman with green skin and a motorcycle dropped into her party.

"I think a few little brats here need to be punished!" the woman said and Jon looked over at Marinette.

"Grandma?" they asked together. She aimed her gun at Marinette but Robin dropped in and pushed her out of the way so Gina aimed at Jon who was gone and picked up my Chat who was jumping away with the boy. Jon was panicking not only cause his cousin was being taken but because his glasses had fallen halfway through the first jump.

Marinette had her arms wrapped around Robin as he carried her away via grappling hook. They were being chased too which wasn't fun. "Can't you just call Superboy?" Marinette asked and as if on cue, her cousin was standing in front of her, picking her up, and flying her away.

Chat and Robin were fighting the self-named Befana when the other heroes joined them as if they were listening in but with Superboy it was never really easy to know if he was just waiting to be called in.

Befana started to drive to the Eiffel Tower which was where they saw Superboy hide Marinette. Chat jumped on the motorcycle trying to throw off Befana but ended up falling off and Superboy held him by the collar of his uniform.

"I thought cats were supposed to land on their feet?" Superboy asked laughing.

"Where did you hide her?" Chat asked whispering.

"Not here, I hid her at home," Superboy said lying but he wasn't about to tell Chat that Marinette was Ladybug.

Ladybug called out her lucky charm and it was a tuba.

"Superboy, the fire hydrant!" Ladybug yelled and the water went through the tuba and the candy which was being used as ammunition froze Befana's body and Ladybug freed Gina.

.....................................

The class started the party again and Damian walked in and stood next to Jon.

"What did you get her?" Jon asked looking at the small box.

"You're so nosy Kent," Damian said walking over to Marinette and giving her the box. "I always use the charm that you gave me so I figured that you could use one to replace the last one," Damian said smiling.

"Th-thank you," Marinette said smiling. Damian nodded and walked away.

"Nice gift," Jon said laughing at Damian's light blush.

"It was either that or a katana," Damian said making Jon stop laughing.

"You aren't serious," Jon said and Damian walked away.

Marinette was over in the corner looking at the charm. Jon sat next to her and smiled.

"I got you something too," Jon said pulling out a belt.

"What is it?" Marinette asked.

"It's a belt from Krypton with the symbol of the House of El. You can use it to call on any member of the family. You've never met Kara or Conner but now you can I guess," Jon said and Marinette hugged him.

"Thank you Jon," Marinette said tracing over the crest.

Tikki smiled as the cousins hugged. It was the best birthday ever.
