Love;Lost (COMPLETE)

**27**

The day came and Marinette called Adrien. They don't talk at school and he comes over as Chat and they talk about their day. She bit her lip as it rang and he soon picked up. "H-Hey." He stuttered.

"Hi, uhm, my parents don't care who you come as. A-Adrien or Chat. They just want to have a dinner with my boyfriend." She looked at herself in the mirror. She was a mess.

"O-O-Okay." He stuttered and she hung up. He gulped as he looked in the mirror. He wanted to come as Adrien but needed to come as Chat. He looked at Plagg and gulped again.

"Adrien calm down." Plagg laughed and Adrien took a deep breath in and out before lying on his bed. He wasn't ready. He wasn't ready to go or even go to a dinner with her parents.

"I-I-I-I-I-I can't. My nerves are acting crazy." He put his hands on his face and slowly dragged them down.

"It's just a dinner with your girlfriend and she said you could be Chat. You don't have to be Adrien."

"Y-Yeah I do. I don't want to lie to her parents." He sighed and sat up. Gabriel walked into his room. He walked over to Adrien and fixed his lose tie and made it match his shirt. Adrien stood still as he also fixed his hair.

"Why are you so freaked out about your date?"

"I-It's a dinner with her parents. I-I-I'm nervous." Adrien stammered and Gabriel chuckled and flatted out his shirt.

"You'll do fine, Adrien. Just stay calm and be yourself." Ever since Gabriel found out he's wanted to protect his son even more so he spends more time with him.

"E-E-E-Easy for y-y-you to s-s-say. I-I-I've never been on a date before!" The one he went on with Marinette his father completely planned it out. He's never winged it with a date.

"You'll do fine, Adrien. We Agrestes always do well on dates." Gabriel smiled and Adrien sighed.

"What if I make fun of myself?"

"Then brush it off," Plagg ate his cheese. "Let's go." Adrien sighed and looked at his father.

He gave a thumbs up and Adrien smiled. "Plagg, Claws Out." He crawled out his window and went to Marinettes house. He stood outside the kitchen door and nervously played with his tail. Marinette stepped outside after seeing him jump to the front door.

"A-Are you coming as Adrien or Chat?"

He smiled at her. "Whichever you want Princess."

She took a deep breath and he held her hand. She didn't know. She just wanted the dinner to be over. They were both nervous wrecks and she still had to reveal herself but hasn't. He keeps asking Ladybug about it. She's not ready but he has a right to know, and so do her parents. A small smile tugged at her lips. "A-Adrien. I-I want my parents to know." He nodded and detransformed. Plagg went into his shirt pocket. They walked inside and Sabine smiled at him. Tom blinked before smiling.

"Adrien, welcome. You and Marinette can watch TV on the couch while we make dinner." Sabine smiled bigger and Adrien nodded. They sat on the couch and Marinette leaned on him. She turned on the TV and he hesitantly wrapped an arm around Marinette.
