L'affaire

Her Truth

So...in the last chapter I said that the show was getting bland.

Then literally on that EXACT same day I get hit in the face with Oblivio

Then a week later i got kicked in the gut with Silencer.

DAMN THIS SHOW! You can't just crap out shitty episodes and then hit me with this bullshit!

Adrien POV

"Wait! Marinette it's me!" My reflexes were barely able to stop Marinette from knocking me across the face with her purse. It seemed like she was really ready to let me have it if she hadn't realized I was the one here.

Her gaze softens and she calms down. "Adrien.....what are you doing here and how the hell did you get into my house?"

"I arrived early...the door was already opened when I came I swear. I came inside making sure there wasn't anyone here and it doesn't seem like anything was stolen either. Did you forget to lock your door on the way out?"

She stops for a moment as it seems like she's trying to think back to earlier that morning. The wide eyed expression and embarrassed look she gave a second later gave me my answer. "I was late and in a rush to get to work on time....I must have forgotten to lock the door in the hurry I was in..."

I chuckled, that was Mari alright. She always seem to forget things when she's pressured or in a rush. Still, I'm just glad nothing bad happened because of it. "I'm just happy that nothing happened and that I got here before anything could." I reached out and touched her cheek before leaning forward and placing a kiss on her forehead.

Mari smiles and then her gaze travels to my other hand. "What's that?"

I looked over at the bouquet of Roses I was holding and handed them to her. "These are for you."

"Oh?" She blinked adorabley at the gesture and took them into her hands. "What's the occasion?"

"Can't I just do something nice for my girlfriend?"

"I don't see why not." She says laughing and makes her way towards the kitchen.

I noticed her nearly jump at the sight of something and she snatches it from the counter. When I come around the corner I noticed the sonogram was missing. Before Marinette entered I had quickly set it back where I found it hoping it would seem like that I had yet to discover it. As much as I would like to confront her about it and I most likely would have by now if it wasn't for the fact that there was a little more to the issue than just the possibility that she's pregnant with my child....there was also the Ladybug issue....

Marinette seems to have gotten stiff since she snatched the picture of the counter, while she got a vase for the flowers filling it with water, she kept looking over at me almost as if she was trying to find something. Probably trying to find any signs of if I found the sonogram and knew the truth. I smiled at her each time and it seemed to ease her nerves a bit.

"So Marinette, what did you want to talk about?" I have the slightest suspicion that the baby issue was what she wanted to talk about today, it also explains why she hadn't talked to me in days after her appointment. That must of been when she found out and why she's been sick lately.

"Well...I....." she hesitates, "...I....lost my job today..."

My eyes widen as I'm clearly shocked by this information. "What? Why?"
