You're home. [Miraculous Ladybug Fanfiction] (Completed)

Chapter 35 - Scarlet Red.

Adrien already went on a trip with his groomsmen to get their suits and ties or bowties fitted specifically to each man.

The date was fast approaching. Based on the intel Nino had from Alya, Marinette had found a dress and it was purchased. He also knew it was in the process of being altered to fix Marinette's body better. Nino had told him that he, Adrien, would be blown away once he saw Marinette walk down the aisle. He believed it.

Adrien leaned against the glass case, filled with sparkling jewelry. He stared into the case, looking down at the rings he had already deemed not good enough. He knew Marinette would look amazing on their wedding day, so he needed to show he wasn't being cheap. He wanted to dazzle her too. He knew money wasn't everything and it can't but happiness, but a ring that Marinette would wear forever well, he hoped at least) needed to be amazing.

He settled for a ring with small diamonds that cascaded down the side of the silver band. The silver metal intertwined, holding one big diamond. He had the date carved into the inside. The designer behind the counter was sizing the ring, and cleaning it up before packing it into the box that his ring-bearer would use.

Adrien turned the small white box around in his hands. It was made of wood, with golden words carved into it. It had two separate sides, each side would hold a ring between the padding.

"Here you are, young man." The old jeweler announced, carefully placing the ring in the "her's" side of the box. It sparked in the light, dazzling Adrien.
"Wow... thank you sir!" He said with the biggest smile. The jeweler shook his head.

"No, no. Thank you. People like you keep me in business! Besides, she's got to be one lucky lady." He waggled his eyebrows. Adrien's cheeks blushed red. He looked down at his feet and nodded.

"Y-yea..." he internally slapped himself for being so flustered.

The man, whose name he earlier found out to be Léo, clapped Adrien's shoulder and sent the scatterbrained blonde on his way. With the ring safely hidden in his pocket and the box him and Marinette had picked out together clenched in his hands, he started home. Marinette was out that day so he decided to get back early and make her a nice home cooked meal. He felt they both deserved it.

Marinette sat comfortably on a leather love-seat, next to her mother, while she waited for her bridesmaids to come out onto the mini cat-walk, much like the one she was on earlier. After finding her wedding dress, she still had to find the bridesmaids their dresses. They had to be red, and more importantly, they had to be the same shade.

Together, her and Adrien both agreed to have a more elegant wedding so long bridesmaids dresses were preferable.

Seconds later, Monique guided the girls out onto the cat walk. Each had on a different dress, with slightly different shades. All of them touched the floor, and some even has slight trains in the back.

Marinette examined each one carefully. Together, her and Sabine critiqued each dress. One may look good on a certain girl but failed to flatter another. Some may not fit the theme of the wedding, ect. It got pretty frustrating.

"Marinette, look at this one!" Sabine suddenly piped up, nudging her daughter in the side. Marinette turned her attention to Rose. Rose walked across the catwalk in a long scarlet red dress, that reached all the way to the floor, and then some.

The back was open, all the way to just above the small of Rose's spine. Lining the back were small white pearls. The front was simple, but elegant like the rest of the dress.
"Thats the one!" She exclaimed. Marinette turned to Monique. "Can I see all the girls in it?" She asked. Monique smiled, and ushered each bridesmaid into the changing rooms to try on the dress for themselves.
