The young woman really made it to the dinner table, while Gabriel knocked at the door to Adrien's room, to tell them, dinner was almost ready.

It was Adrien, who opened and told him, that he wasn't sure, if he could wake Marinette up, but that he would try.

"Why's that? Did my child tire her so much?", he mused.

Turning deep red, Adrien cleared his throat, searching for an answer, when his girlfriend showed up next to him, wrapped in his duvet and said yawning:

"Though it was your 'child', that tired me so much, I am pretty sure, we're are not talking about the same child!"

Then she leaned her head on Adrien's shoulder and closed her eyes again.

Gabriel smirked and hummed:

"Well, maybe you will get dressed anyway, because Nath is already waiting at the dining table!"

"Then we should hurry!", Marinette blurted out, forcing her eyes open. "You!", she pointed at her boyfriend, "you exhausted me like that, so go and get me something with caffeine!"

Looking at her thunderstruck he stuttered:

"A-A-As you w-w-wish M'lady!"

And then he quickly left the room, only wearing the boxers, he had put on after the knock on his door, to rush to the kitchen and get her some coffee.

Gabriel shook his head chuckling and said, as he was already turning around:

"Well, I leave you alone to get dressed and tell Nathalie, that you're on your way!"

"Okay", she mumbled sleepily and turned around to suddenly open her eyes widely.

"What the fuck? Did I really just? Oh no!"

She rapidly put on some clothes and ran towards the dining room, seeing Gabriel and Nathalie grin at her knowingly.

Marinette turned scarlet red, as she slowly approached the table and muttered:

"G-Gabriel, I am so sorry, I didn't know, what I was saying, I......I was halfway sleeping and.....oh my God, you have told Nathalie about it already......I......"

"Hey Purrincess, what's going on? Still needing that caffeine?", Adrien teased her, after hearing her stammering.

"You! You could have stopped me from saying something like that!", she now yelled at him.

Nathalie just giggled, as she heard the girl ranting and asked innocently, as she offered her an open package:

"Chocolate?"

Now the teenagers both looked confused.

"Well", Nathalie explained, "you at least act, as if it was 'that' time of the month again soon. And if I remember right, it has been exactly four weeks since we were on our weekend trip!"

That made the young couple blush even more, but Marinette nodded and answered sheepishly:

"Yeah, you're actually right. I totally forgot. And thank you for the chocolate, I really am in the mood for some!"

The older woman smirked and offered her another piece, that the girl thankfully took, before she questioned:

"But as we are just speaking about those things anyway, you did remember to get your injection, right? And this time I am not trying to play a little prank on Adrien, this time, I am serious!"

Marinette swallowed hard, as she answered:

"It's due next week, so don't worry. I'll remember to go there!"
