Miraculous AU: Alcoholic Agreste

Chapter 2 (Marinette)

Sorry about not uploading!! I kinda forgot about this book for a while, lol. I promise I'll be on a normal upload schedule from now on. Sorry!!
I woke up early Sunday morning to make breakfast. I needed to drop by the dispatch sometime today to pick up some paperwork, and I figured I could while Adrien was having his "Guy's day out" with Nino. I looked at him sleeping peacefully, and smiled.
   "Love you." I said, knowing he wouldn't hear me. I got up and got out the eggs, pancake mix, bacon, and chocolate chips. Sunday was chocolate chip pancake day. While I waited for the stovetop griddle to heat up, I turned on the news. Apparently there is a recent addition to the neighborhood. I figured it must be another playground. I gasped in surprise when I saw it was a bar. I groaned in annoyance. Great, I thought. More drunk drivers and alcohol related violence. I made a mental note to mention that to Tikki, and went back to the griddle, now heated, to make the pancakes. I was focused on trying not to burn them, so I was surprised when I felt someone go behind me and sniff the chocolate scent rising in the air.

"A good morning would be nice, you know." He chuckled.

"Love you too." I wondered if that was a remark about my comment, or him responding to what I'd said to him absentmindedly earlier. I went to go get the plates, he wagged his finger at me and pointed to the table.

"Oh, I get the table set for me today. How fancy." He stuck his tounge out at me, his usual retaliation when I made a remark like that, and I laughed in response. He sat down and gave me a plate with pancakes, eggs, bacon, and orange juice. He had given himself about double what I had on my plate. I was going to point that out, but I heard my pager go off in my pocket. I ate as quickly as I could, and grabbed my purse.

"Sorry, they need me at the office. Stitching machine malfunction. Love you, Hon. See you tonight. Have fun with Nino!" I rushed out of the house and into my car. I decided to call Tikki down at dispatch, to see what the issue was. Beep boop beep beep.

"Hello?"

"Hey Tikki, what's the issue?"

"Someone causing trouble near the new Miraculous bar." Oh geez, I knew that bar thing was a bad idea.

"I'll be there in eight minutes, ten tops."

"Roger. Got your suit?"

"Duh, Tikki."

"Okay, see you soon." Click

I started driving towards the bar, putting my car in auto-pilot while I put on my suit. I swerved into pursuit as I saw what the damage was. It looked as if someone trashed the place. I parked, and went inside. bottles were smashed, people were shouting, and the bartender was yet to be seen.

"Hey!"

As soon as I spoke, everyone quieted down, for they didn't hear, nor see me come in. All the people inside stepped aside except for the bartender. He just calmly walked back over to the bar, as if we weren't all starting at him.

"What?" He spat out. Everyone in the bar starting rioting again, something about a black cat and midnight...

Super duper sorry about the short chapter guys! I'll be sure to post a longer one next time. I've been busy with school, and personal stuff lately. A bit of writer's block, but that's why this chapter was so short.

Bug out~!
