Marinette POV

Ugh...my head...if there's one thing I know I'm going to hate about being pregnant it's the fact that I can't take any pain relieving medication while I still have the baby. Maybe some tea will help.

I sat up and notice the light shining through my curtains, it was already morning? How long was I out?

Suddenly all the memories from last night started to come at once. The building, the fire, Chat Noir, Adrien being Chat Noir. It all seemed so unreal.

Before I could think any further I heard a noise coming from outside my room. I slipped out of my bed and headed for the commotion. I was immediately hit with the smell of food coming from the kitchen and I heard some bickering.

"Plagg can you please stop touching everything?" Said a voice.

"I'm hungry Adrien and there's no more cheese!" Another shouted. I peeked in the kitchen and saw Adrien glaring at a floating black cat who I recognized as Plagg.

"I told you I'd get you your cheese as soon as Marinette is awake and well. Now quit making so much noise or you'll wake her!"

I spotted Tikki on the counter who shook her head at the two and looked over at my direction. "Marinette! You're awake!" She beamed and flew over to my side. Adrien and Plagg looked over as well. "How are you feeling?"

"Better I guess, I have a slight headache so I wanted to make some tea." I responded.

"I can get that for you." Adrien said as he approached me. He reached out and rubbed the side of my head. "Breakfast is almost ready...I'm sure you have some questions as well."

My heart began to beat uncontrollably. "Y..Yes quite a few actually."

"Yeah....um you go ahead and take a seat I'll be there in a second."

I nodded and did what he asked, I wasn't sure what else to say. It's like everything was completely out in the opening between the two of us. It made me nervous and that's saying alot considering how many times I've seen the man naked and vice versa.

We all sat at the table, at first it was completely silent while we ate and honestly I didn't know how much more I could take until he spoke again.

"I'm guessing your first question is 'how I found out?'"

I nodded. "Yeah let's start with that."

"Remember when you left the door unlocked that day you were in a hurry to get to work? When I went in to make sure you were okay and you didn't get robbed, I saw the sonogram on the counter." He took another bite of his food. "I recognized the photo as the one you showed me as Ladybug and everything just...clicked."

I wanted to groan, I wasn't being careful about the situation at all and as a result blew my cover. "So...you've known for awhile?"

"About two weeks yes..." he began rubbing the back of his neck. "I wanted to tell you that I knew, but it felt like you were under alot of stress and I know you were gonna tell me that day, but I didn't want to say something stupid that would make you upset and put you under more pressure since I also knew your OTHER secret."

"Wow...this...I'm sorry it's just ALOT to take in." I leaned back in my chair. "Just knowing that it was you this whole time..."

"Weird right?" He chuckled a bit, and I felt the air become less tense. "That's how I felt too when I found out."
