Cats Leave Paw Prints [*Completed*]

Legacy

"Marinette,"

"Hm."

"Is it odd that I still don't think she's Ladybug. I know I saw'll her Kwami but something just is not sitting right."

"Well, try to keep your mind of it."

She said as she handed him a spoon covered in batter before she put cookies in the oven.

"Well?"

"Well, what?"

"How does it taste?"

"Fine."

"Fine? Guess I'm gonna have to hang up my chefs hat."

"Don't do that their amazing!"

"I'm just pulling your tail."

Marinette knew just what to say to make him smile.

"Marinette..."

Before he could say anything more, Marinette demeanor changed. She started crying.

"Silly, kitty wake up, it's been five days, I'm worried."

"Marinette?"

Adrien was startled. He tried to comfort her by it seemed he was making matters worse.

"Please, Chat, wake up."

Marinette wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Pregnancy hormones."

She joked as if nothing happened. He studied her for a moment. What just happened? He thought. Was he going crazy?

"Adrien...." Marinette uttered.
"....my water broke."

"Your water broke?!"

He repeated. He didn't know what to do.

"Can you take me to the hospital?"

"I should get Felix first he's just in the next room."

"Adrien, hospital then husband."

Adrien shook his head in agreement and took her to the nearest hospital which was a hour away. He called Felix in the limo on their way there.

"Are you okay Marinette?"

Marinette was covered in sweat. Adrien thought it was weird in all the stories he heard it took awhile before the contractions built up.

"I'm about to shove a human being out of my who ha for the third time. Do I look okay?"

She was in intense pain. A doctor came in.

"Dad, can you stand by mom and hold her hand."

Adrien followed the Doctor's orders and didn't correct the Doctor.

"Looks like go time."

The Doctor said as she looked between Marinette's legs. Marinette's hospital gown was  soaked with sweat and Adrien's hand was being crushed by her.

"Push!" The Doctor screamed.

"Push! Push! Push!" She continued.

Marinette screamed. Adrien felt uncomfortable seeing Marinette in so much pain.

"I can't...... I can't..."

Marinette muttered threw her screams.

"Marinette, Push."

Adrien ordered not wanting her to give up. Before they knew it a baby's cries could be heard. The baby was past around by a bunch of nurses. Cleaning and what not.

"Congratulations, on your son."

The Doctor said handing the newborn to Adrien.  Adrien was overwhelmed with thoughts of fatherhood. The thought that maybe one day a baby like this would carry on his legacy.

"Marinette, he's gorgeous."

He tilted the newborn so Marinette could see. Marinette opened her mouth as if she was going to say something but nothing came out.

"Marinette?"

Adrien wondered why she wasn't saying anything. A nurse hurriedly took the baby and ran out of the room with it. The Doctor and the other nurse ran in a panic when Marinette stared drifting off.

"Marinette?!"

Adrien screamed. Her monitor in a couple seconds flatlined. The Doctor tried chest compressions and every resonation thing in the book.

"Get him out of here!"

A nurse screamed. Adrien didn't want to leave even if the tears were blinding him. He didn't want to leave her side. She was his friend after all.

"Marinette!"

He yelled. Two nurses tried to push him threw the doors making the last thing he would see is a nurse laying a cloth over her face. Adrien didn't want her to die not like this. Not ever. He didn't care if he wasn't her husband. He wanted to be there. No. He needed to be there. He needed her. Her story shouldn't end here.

"Marinette!"

He screamed as he was pushed through the doors.
