The first week home was hard, they had no guidance, no direction, and no idea how to care for a newborn baby, even in the daylight they were acting as though they were wandering around with the lights off, turning to parenting YouTube for all their information university classes were now void, null moments when one of them would be sleeping with Emma on their chest while the other tried to pay attention but ended up drifting off anyways, they hardly slept anymore, the concept of sleep being a dream in itself, Adrien on diaper duty every 2 hours while Marinette would breastfeed their daughter, both young adults remaining awake as they watched their daughter happily, Adrien's phone went off while he was trying to go back to sleep, groaning softly as he rolled over to check his email.

"Babe, go to sleep..." Marinette complained as the phone light blinded both of them, Marinette rolling away from her fiancé as he looked at his phone.
"Sorry Princess." He quickly apologized as he saw that he needed to attend his next class in person, that there would be an in person assignment that required partners, rolling his eyes and turning off his phone screen, he moved back to cuddle with Marinette before they were interrupted by cries from the next room, Emma waking up for the 3rd time that night.
"See what you did." Marinette spoke as she watched Adrien climb out of bed to check their daughters diaper, seeing that she was mostly clean, before handing the baby girl to Marinette.
"Sorry lovebug, she's just hungry this time." Adrien found himself apologizing more often than not recently, knowing Marinette needed sleep, but also wanted to breastfeed, made things far worse on her. "Maybe we should do formula to babe, just so it's easier on you..." Adrien spoke softly, looking at his fianceé, who immediately glared at him, quickly zipping his mouth just and sitting back in bed with her.
"What was the message about?" Marinette asked looking at him, wanting to entirely change the topic from doing anything other than natural feeding for their daughter.
"I have to go into a lecture tomorrow, it's mandatory physical attendance due to a project the professor has planned." He explained briefly, knowing Marinette would not be happy about being left alone with Emma.

Marinette was pretty much silent the rest of the night, still waking up with their daughter every 2-3 hours, but now a little more upset because she would be entirely alone with their newborn for god only knows how long, and still have to find a way to attend her own class, when they were doing online classes they at least could trade off with Emma.
As Adrien prepared to head to his first in person class since becoming a father, it was odd for him to wear normal clothing, spending most his days at home in pajamas with a baby in his arms, he had no desire to dress up, wearing sweatpants and a shirt that hopefully didn't have baby spit up on it, though if it did he was to exhausted to care.
He gave the side of Marinette's head an affectionate kiss, knowing she was unhappy with him for this, but also knowing she had no control over it and he needed to pass this class for his teaching certificate.

"I'll be home in 2 hours, love you Mar, love you Emma." He kissed his daughter's head before leaving the small apartment and heading to campus, he pulled a card from Marinette's book and stayed pretty much entirely silent the whole time he was there, that was until a familiar looking mug entered his peripheral sight, Lila, he had heard she was going to university in Italy, but it seemed she changed her mind.
"Adrien! How have you been!?" Her voice made Adrien's ears ring with alarm bells, surly she wouldn't try anything on him, she knew for a fact that his daughter was born just a week ago.
"Not in the mood Lola." Adriens voice held more malice than he'd like to assume as he purposely messed up his old classmates name.
"Now that's no way to treat an old friend..." Lila's voice alone was starting to get on his nerves, he really wanted nothing to do with the obnoxious brunette, pulling his phone out, a picture of Marinette and his daughter proudly displayed on his lock and home screen.
"You're not my friend, your just a fly that keeps buzzing in my ear for attention." He muttered as he entered the lecture hall, taking a seat close to the door so that when the class ended he could get out and home as quick as humanly possible.

Lila continued to try and flirt with him, however he had none of it, taking all his notes down on his laptop while keeping his eyes glued to the professor, he got a text from Marinette that popped up on his computer.

Attached was a picture of their baby girl, with a blow out diaper and looking as unfazed as ever, cracking a small laugh he felt bad for his fiance having to deal with that all alone. He knew he hated those, and their daughter was just about the best at choosing the best time to do the worst things.

"Sorry buggaboo that's all up to you, I still have another 30 minutes of this lecture then a 7 minute drive home.
And I have to deal with Lila through the rest of this thing, so good luck, but not to much cause I need some to."

He responded endearingly, wishing he were home with his family instead of in a stuffy lecture hall doing a project with people he didn't know or really care to know, his heart was with his fianceé and daughter who were probably plenty of bubbles deep in an adorable sink bath. But his mind would wander back to his project every once any a while, him and his classmates were meant to get together and discuss how the soulmate system had changed their school experience and why the soulmate system was either good or bad, it was a debate related project, and he just so happened to be on the good side of the soulmate app and it's affect on the teenage mind and how it affected their school life.
