In Another World (Miraculous Ladybug)

(Storyline B) Chapter 9: Happenings at Home

"It's Paris." Her voice was so soft yet so strong. Nino almost didn't hear her.

"What do we do?" He squeezed her hand tightly.

"What do we want to do?" Mari looked around her.

"That's your home isn't it?" Edwards's voice broke the silence.

"You two should go home, raise your baby with your families," Maryweather spoke softly.

What about Adrien and Alya? Mari looked at him with panic.

He took a deep breath, he knew he had to be strong for his wife, We can only hope it's been at least seven years there.

What about... Mari's hand went to her stomach.

Alice knelt next to Mari, "You've been the best friend I could ask for Mari, but I think you need to risk it, you have to believe your baby will be fine." Alice hugged Mari, "I'll miss you though." Nino watched as Maryweather joined in on the hug. The men he'd grown to love shared a group hug.

They were gonna go home. They waved goodbye to Dou Luna and stepped through the portal.

Adrien sat with his pregnant wife between his legs and her back pressed against his chest. Seemed to be one of the few ways she was comfortable these days. He loved their home, it was two blocks from Master Fu's place, that way they could keep checking on him, they wished he would let them take the Kwamis but he kept saying the time was right. "Mrs. Graham de Césaire?" 

"Yes My love?" Alya giggled. "What can I do for you?"

"Well, we have an hour until our twin's party, so shouldn't you go get ready if we want to go to the top of the rink before the party. So don't you think you should go get into your gorgeous dress?"  

Alya slowly got up, "But love, I was comfy." 

"I know baby but your mother and sisters planned this night for us. And you know  Tom and Sabine made you favourite. And my Aunt even made the trip." 

Alya finally stood with Adirens help. "I know. I'll go put the dress on but at seven months pregnant with twins, my babies could come any day now, you'd think they would not throw huge parties for two babies who aren't even born yet." She smiled and wandered off to grab the dress.

Adrien smiled as she went, god he loved her. Sure the last eight years had been hard, losing their partners to some mystery portal, having to take on the roles of two heroes each, telling their lovers partners what happen to their children, telling Paris that half of the team had been lost. Using that as a motivation to fight Hawkmoth and Mayra, Parisians worked hard to keep their emotions in check, and LadyFox and Turtle Noir were able to draw Hawkmoth out of his layer and battle him two and two. And That's when Adrien learned that his father and assistant were his enemies.  And that was all before they started collaged. But with Hawkmoth gone, they could go anywhere, so they went to London together, and stayed with Adrien's Aunt and cousin. Amelie had made sure Adrien didn't lose his share of his father's wealth even when he went to jail. They changed his name and he got a teaching degree, they moved back to Pairs and were welcomed back as heroes. 

"Babe? Ready to go?" 

"Sorry I was just thinking about how we got here."

"Well, let's go talk to them." Alya took his hand. "Kawmis?"

"Alya... I don't like this." Tiki warned. 

"Ya, I'm with Tiki on that one," Trix added

"Ladies it will be fine, we're not fighting it's just the easiest way to get to the rink." Adrien smiled at them, "And besides I'll be by her side the whole way." 

With their Hero gets ups on, they carefully flew the sky. Landing gently on the rooftop of the rink. They took transformed and smiled at one another. They took the earring and bracelet off and set them on the ground as close to the spot as they could remember. "Hey, guys." 

"We don't have to long, we have a baby shower to get to. But we wanted to stop by and see how you were doing." Adrien took Alya's hand as she got emotional. 

"We miss you guys tonight. We really wish you were here with us." Alya squeezed Adirens hand. 

"We also hope you to found love in each other's arms as we did. Maybe your gonna have a baby too. Or maybe you already do." Adrien pulled Alya into his arms.

"My mom wanted this baby shower to be a gender reveal, can you believe that Mare? Don't worry I shut her down hard. Their so overdone, my babies will be what they will be. No need to buy pink if their girls or blue if their boys. Or maybe I'll get one of each. That's what Mr. Sunshine here wants." 

"Hey now, I said anything would be fine." 

"I know baby, your just fun to tease." She kissed his cheek. She sighed, "I really miss them. Mar would have loved to make baby blankets and outfits for them." 

"Nino would have a mix of music for them." Adrien chuckled. "Though we likely wouldn't be together if they were here you know." 

"I know, but I know it hard on their parents watching us, even after all these years, it what they wanted for their kids." 

"Which is why our children will call them whatever grandparent name they want." He smiled. "Well, it's almost time to go. I'll pick these up so we can head to the hotel, your mom said she rented, ouch!" Adrien had bent over to grab the jewelry and imminently dropped it. 

"Adrien, what happened?" Alya pulled her husband back. 

"I don't the Miraculous their burning! Tiki! Wayz! What is happening!" Adrien looked around and say that the kawmis were nowhere to be seen. Suddenly a white light started to form, remembering what happened to his friend what seemed like a lifetime ago, he grabbed his wife and hoped he could shield her from the blast, "NO MATTER WHAT DON'T LET GO!"
