Dear father, I graduated just less than two hours ago. And Nathalie is taking me and a couple of my friends on a college tour the day after tomorrow. I'm writing this, because you weren't there to witness your son walk up the stage. I'm not a child anymore, Father. And I owe it all to my best friends.

Adrien turned around when he heard a soft knock behind him.

"Alya and the others are here." Marinette called, "Can we come up?"

"Yeah." Adrien opened the trapdoor for them.

"I heard it's your first time having a sleepover." Alya said to him, placing the cookies on the floor and collapsing in a nearby beanbag.

"Yup." Adrien grinned, taking a cookie, "It's gonna be great."

"I call dips on the last cookie!" Nino practically screamed.

Chloe hushed him then laughed, throwing her sleeping bag on the floor. "You already had three the second we walked in!"

Marinette closed the trapdoor behind her and the kwamis flew out of hiding. Trixx threw a pillow at Plagg, who dodged with ease.

"You almost got me caught downstairs!" Trixx scolded.

"You sound like Tikki." Plagg whined, "You're all no fun." He was so busy complaining, he didn't notice the second pillow hauled at him, this time from Tikki.

"I love your room Marinette." Pollen smiled, "The color coding is great."

"Thanks." Marinette stroked her head, then turned to the other kwamis. "You guys can fight on my bed, just don't go breaking anything."

Trixx, Tikki and Plagg flew up with no hesitation. Wayzz shook his green head.

"Children." He sighed, "Pollen is the only one behaved." Pollen hugged him.

"I don't mind having some fun just for today." She said, grabbing hold of him and dragging him up.

The heroes laughed and huddled up in their own circle on the floor.

You probably don't remember them. Nino, Alya, Chloe and Marinette. I'm so proud of them, how much they've grown with me. We're all so different in our own way, with our own stories and personalities. But we've always been our best when we're together.

The five spent their time playing video games and slacking each other off. Marinette's parents keep popping in to see how things were going. It was obvious they were tremendously happy for the group. They are some of the most important people in Marinette's life. When it got later into the night, they spent five minutes up on the balcony, but decided it was a bit too cold. The night has picked up wind. And that's when Chloe made the best suggestion.

"I say we all take a tour around Paris." She smirked, "You get me?"

Marinette made sure her parents were asleep before agreeing.

Father, when you were away, I fell in love with someone. You might remember her for winning some of your fashion design competitions. She is unbelievably talented, unbelievably kind, unbelievably selfless. And she has showed me what a true love feels like.

Adrien let himself be enveloped with a bright electrifying green light. When he opened his eyes, all his friends were transformed. He grabbed hold of Ladybug's hand, just out of habit. She gazed up at him and gave his hand a playful squeeze.

One by one, they launched themselves off the balcony, with Alya shouting at the top of her lungs "last one to the Eiffel Tower is a rotten apple!"

Chat laughed heartily and let go of his lady so they could run free. She leaped across the rooftops and swung from structure to structure, like a gust of red weaving through the streets of their city. Her hair, originally ready for bed, flowed with the wind, no hair bands holding it back. Her eyes, beautiful blue, sparkled even brighter in the night. Chat would've stared longer but he knew he'd get so lost in her that he'll probably lose his footing in a heartbeat.
