Love As In Partners

Chapter 12

Adrien woke up thinking about yesterdays mistake. He feared it was his turn. Plagg was eating cheese again.

"Whats wrong kid?" Adrien looked at him. "I'm scared... What if it's my turn?"

"It won't happen. Just stay positive!" Plagg devoured the last piece of cheese and fell asleep.

"Yeah.. You're right." Nathalie knocked the door. "Adrien, get ready for school!"

"Coming!" He then showered and changed. After that he ate breakfast and went in the car. "Adrien, tonight you're having dinner with your father. So be here before 7:30"

"Oh yeah... Its his birthday. I wonder if I can now introduce him to Marinette!"

"Marinette?" Nathalie asked.

"Yeah. She is my girlfriend!"

"Hmm... Its up to your father. He can quickly ban her and prohibit you to ever see her again."

"My father will sure approve her! She is a future designer!"

"Hmmm..."

Adrien arrived at school and Marinette was waiting for him. "Kitty! Uh I mean... Adrien!!"

"My Lady! Uh I mean.. Princess!"

Both hugged each other and kissed. Alya was fangirling. Nino was nodding.

"Come on! There are waiting for us!!"

"Umm Marinette?"

"Yes?"

"Today is my father's birthday and we are having dinner tonight... I wanted to know if you want to come? So I can finally introduce you to my father..."

"I would love to!!"

"Great! I'll pick you up at 7:20. Sound good?"

"I'll be ready by then!"

"Put on a nice dress!"

"I'll make one then!!"

The bell rang.

"Shall we walk to class already, My Lady?"

"Yes my Kitty!!"

Class started. Marinette was doodling some dress designs for tonight. She knew Gabriel Agreste was Paris most famous designer and wanted to make a good impression.

"What do you think about this Alya?"

"Wow!! You did this? Awesome!!"

"Thanks!"

"What is it for?"

"Adrien asked me to be at his father's birthday so he can finally introduce him to me!"

"Next step huh?"

"ALYA!! NOT LIKE THAT!! Besides, I'm probably not staying at his house. I'll probably leave after that."

"In case... Be prepared~"

Marinette blushed. Adrien turned to them. "What you girls talking about?"

"NOTHING!!"

"Marinette!! Can we use our internal voices please? Thank you."

"Sorry..."

Class ended and Marinette went outside with Adrien. "I'll pick you up. Be ready!"

"I will." They kissed and hugged. "See you!"

Marinette went home and started working on her dress. "Marinette! Ready for the next step!! I'm proud!!"

"Yes Tikki, but I need to be the right girl! I know I'm the right one but its all up to Mr. Agreste!"

"Don't worry Mari! You'll be fine!!"

"Done! And just 10 minutes before Adrien comes!! Now lets get ready."

Adrien was outside and Marinette was ready. "Marinette!! Adrien is here!!"

"Coming Mum!! Hide Tikki!"

"Hello Mari- Wow! You sure look beautiful!!"

"Thanks... Now lets go!"

"Yep."

They later arrived at the Mansion. "Come to my room. I still need to get ready!"

"Nice place you have Kitty! And look at this room!!" Marinette sat in the couch that was in Adrien's room.

"Well I'll get changed."

"Okay." She wondered around his room and saw many pictures of him with his mother. Adrien didn't mentioned her because she never asked. And she didn't wanted to because that probably made him sad.

"She is pretty, right?"

She turned to see Adrien shirtless. "AHHH!!" Mari blushed and covered her eyes. "I saw nothing!!"

"Haha!! It's fine!! You're my girlfriend!"

"Umm... But still... I'm not ready for that!!"

"Haha! Sorry My Lady!!"

Mari was still red until Adrien was finally done. "Now you can see."

"Thank goodness!" Adrien was charming as always. "Handsome!"

"Really? Thanks princess!"

"Adrien! Your father is waiting."

"Thanks Nathalie! We're coming!"

"This is it Marinette! Time to meet Mr. Agreste!"

"Let's go princess."

Marinette was nervous but tried to smile. "Here we go..."
