Marinettes Pov

I woke up feeling quite tired since last night, I didn't get much sleep. I had been in my personal self defence class until 1am doing non-stop fighting. I honestly love that class, it truely is my favourite but then I don't feel like doing it till 1am. Of course I have no say in this as my parents, the king and queen, choose everything for me.

Anyways, back to this morning. I rose from my slumber in my beautiful double bed. I didn't wake up from an alarm, nor naturally, I woke up from my brother Luka. "Marinette Dupain-Cheng, WAKE UP!" He really got on my nerves sometimes. "Go AWAY Luka, I'm trying to sleep here, geez," I yelled back at him then fell into another, sweet slumber. Just as I was about to be knocked out, he yelled again, he HAD to yell again. "MARINETTE, YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR BREAKFAST, GET UP," "BUT I DON'T WANNA," "WELL YOU HAVE TO!" In the end I slapped him in the face with a pillow until he got out of my room so I could change into some other clothes.

"Ah Marinette, glad you're on time for breakfast today. Usually you're a bit late, any reason you're not today?" I really wanted to say 'well SOMEONE decided they'd wake me up extra early for breakfast and that SOMEONE is LUKA' but I couldn't. Which honestly sucked. Luka's my older brother and I could get revenge on him for waking me up but I think I already did when I kept hitting him with the pillow. "Oh I woke up naturally early for some odd reason. Too bad, at least I'm on time for once right?" I said awkwardly, Luka looked at me with both appreciation and confusion, "are you sure it wasn't Luka who woke you up? I heard some yelling from the both of you when he went in." I had to keep up at the act of defending him so I did so. "Oh no, I had already woken up by then, we were just joking around." Mum- I mean the Queen didn't look so convinced so she asked Luka. "Luka are you sure she was awake before you went in?" He looked at me then at our mother, "yes mother, she was."

I could tell he felt a little awkward and guilty so he changed the subject, quite smoothly i'd say. "So mother, where's father?" I too was curious, "yeah where is he? May he join us this morning for breakfast? He hasn't had breakfast with us for weeks..." I felt quite sad it was usually only our mother that joined us so I continued talking with my head low. "I'm sorry sweetheart, but you know your father, being the king he is means he's got a lot of work to do." "Yeah I get it, can we at least bring his breakfast up to his office later to see him?" She looked hesitant but then thought about it, we hadn't seen his face other than for a few minutes at dinners and when he came to tell us something on our schedules. "Of course, I'll call you both down after breakfast when your father's hungry." Luka and I shared happy glances and he spoke up first saying, "thank you, thank you, thank you mother!" She nodded in response and we started eating.

Luka's Pov
We were dismissed from our meal and we had some free time before our classes started. Marinette went over to her room so I followed her because I wanted to thank her for earlier. "Marinette?" "Yes Luka?" "Can I come in?" "Of course, what do you want?" I walked in and sat on her bed beside her. "Well first I wanted to say thank you for not putting the blame on me earlier at breakfast," she nodded. "But I also wanna know why you did that, you could've gotten your sweet revenge by blaming me, but ya didn't." She crossed her legs and sighed. "Well I think I got my revenge by slapping you in the face with the pillow all those times and plus, I felt bad so I just didn't bother blaming you," "oh well, thank you Marinette." Once again, she nodded.

"So you wanna do something until we get called for our classes?" "Hey don't forget we're giving father his breakfast and we get to see him," "trust me I didn't forget. I'm over the moon about seeing him but then we you think of it, all we're doing is going in, saying good morning, putting his tray of food on his desk and leaving. Not much is it? I mean he'll probably not reply to our hi or even look at us for that matter, he's too busy all the time."

I could tell she was upset that we weren't able to see father, so being the amazing big brother I am, I tried cheering her up. "Well, since I'm an amazing big brother, we can do something fun." She looked at me with happiness in her big blue eyes that she gets from our mother. "First of all thank you, second of all you're only one year older than me Luka- that's not much." I wanted to be dramatic so I slapped my heart and acted like I was offended, "ugh, how rude, for your information, 1 year is a long time because it is 365 days, that's a lot." She rolled her eyes at my behaviour and laid down.
