One Decision

Chapter 2|Running The Buisness

Gabriel P.O.V.

It's been two weeks after Adrien's wedding. Adrien and Ms. Bourgeois, or I guess I should say, Mrs. Agreste, are out of town on their honeymoon and are coming back tomorrow. Once they get back I leave for America within the next 3 hours. Before I do that I have to find a new holder for the butterfly miraculous. I have to make sure they understand that they are to retrieve Ladybug and Chat Noir's miraculous and give them to me immediately.

Maybe I could do Adrien.

No, Adrien will just end up mad when he finds out I'm Hawkmoth then I have to answer all his questions and I really don't have time for that.

Well, I better find someone quickly.

Time skip to the next day.

Adrien P.O.V.

I exit the private jet with Chloe around my arm.

"Wasn't that fun Adrikins!" Chloe says.

"Uh, yeah. I guess," I reply. It really wasn't that fun though. Father made me let Chloe pick where we were going and she picked for us to go to Hawaii. I was actually excited cause I happen to like the beach but instead of relaxing at the beach, Chloe made us go shopping at the malls.

We meet up with my father at the house. He is standing in the middle of the entrance when we get there, he already has his suitcase in one hand. He looks over to us, not even a slight smile appears on his face.

"Hello, Ms. Bourgeois," My father says. Then he gives me a nod of acknowledgment. Geez, how friendly. My father then walks up to me and says, "Nathalie has all the schedules and other needed things. She will tell you everything you need to do. As long as you listen to her the business will run smoothly. Is that understood?"

"Yes, father," I reply. Then my father walks toward the car with his suitcase in one hand and leaves. Me and Chloe enter the Agreste mansion, Chloe goes to her bedroom to start unpacking her things, and I think she said something about her and Sabrina going furniture shopping later. Anyway, I head over to my father's old office, which I suppose is my new office and wait for Nathalie to enter my office.

A few moments later Nathalie enters my office. "Hello Adrien, I'm here to tell you your plans for the day," she says in a very monotone voice. "There is a new intern today, she is going to be your helper for fashion shows and other upcoming events, today you will train her," Nathalie says.

"Okay, what things am I supposed to teach her about?" I ask.

"I have a list with all the things the intern is supposed to learn today, she is expected to work at the company within a years time, the internship is so she has experience," Nathalie says and places the list on my desk. Wow, there are so many things to do, like first there is a mansion tour, then we have to learn some things about each other. What is this the first day of second grade? I suppose we have to know each other in order to live in a nice working environment. Then I have to show her how to use the equipment and show her how to plan social events, there are still tons more stuff after this. This is going to be a long day.

After about an hour Nathalie comes back with a girl behind her with a blue hair tied up into a high ponytail. Blue hair? That's strange. She looks familiar though I just can't remember. "Adrien, this is Marinette Couffaine, she's the new intern," Nathalie says.

"Hi Marinette, I'm Adrien," I said.

"Hi, I don't know if you remember me but you came to my high school once! It was only for a day actually but yeah," she said. I went to her high school? How come I can't remember this? Hmmm. Then suddenly a memory just flashes my mind of me trying to take gum off of a girls seat then a huge misunderstanding happened and she got mad at me. That was her? Oh, I never got to apologize and tell her it was all just a misunderstanding since father never let me go back to school.

"Oh, yeah. I remember you don't worry, also I would just like to say I'm sorry about that whole gum situation. I was just trying to take the gum off, I wasn't trying to put it on or anything," I say.

"It's okay, it was like 10 years ago anyway," she says.

Nathalie left the office and I led Marinette to my desk. Then I led her to another side of the room and there was a medium sized desk, with an Apple computer and lots of different supplies nicely organized on it.

"This is your desk," I said. I looked over at her to see if she was ready for the next part of the tour and she looked really nervous and excited, she was swaying back and forth and fiddling with her fingers.

"Um, are you okay?" I asked.

"U-uh, yeah! It's just that this is the first job I've ever had and I'm really nervous," she said never looking away from the ground.

"Oh, don't worry this is my first job too," I said excitedly since I found something we have in common.

"Well, I guess we can learn the ropes of this together!" she said and smiled at me.

"R-right," I said, my face is probably as red as a strawberry. Wow, she's so cute >///<! Ah, what are you thinking Adrien, you are a married man! I started to lower my head so that Marinette couldn't see me blushing, then I noticed her stomach was a bit bigger than most people's stomachs.

"Are you pregna-" I started to say. Wait, she could just be a bit bigger than most people! Adrien, you idiot! You could be body shaming her! Ugh, I bet she thinks she has a jerk for a boss now.

"Uh, no, it's fine you can say pregnant. I don't mind," she says. Oh, phew, she is pregnant. You were this close to becoming a jerk boss Adrien, you better not screw it up again.

"Oh, so um, who is the lucky guy?" I said awkwardly trying to make conversation.

"It's my husband, Luka," Marinette said.

"Huh, Luka, that name sounds familiar," I said. Where have I heard that name before?

"Hmm, I wonder where it's not like he's famous or anything," she said while pondering about something, probably why I know the name Luka, I'm also curious myself.

Luka, it sounds so familiar! Oh well, it's probably nothing and I'm just imagining things.
