Adriens POV

I walk off with Marinette, already knowing partly the reason she's here. I wanted to be with (y/n), but of course, we were interrupted... Why can't we just be alone for at least 10 minutes? We finally come to a stop when she sees that no one was around. I just smile kindly at her, "What did you want to talk about?"

"I need to talk to you about 2 urgent things...Adrien, first off I need you to know that (y/n) is... And I know that you really like her, well I mean... especially since she's-"

I interrupt her rambling, "Mari, I really appreciate you being there for me and being a great friend, but I know (y/n) and she's an amazing person. She's been through a lot and let's just drop this subject, okay?"

"Fine. Just promise me one thing."

"What?"

"At least be careful around Cat Noir. He's a huge flirt, who'll play with certain people's hearts."

"Okay. Now, is there anything else? Surely you didn't just come here to just tell me that." I smile knowing she probably just said that because she really likes Cat Noir and because she's a very good friend. I wish Mari and (y/n) got along better...

"Second...Ladybug needs to talk to you."

"Wait, me? Why me?"

"Because it has something to do with your father and (y/n)s mother." Marinette smiles nervously

Not again! Why is Ladybug pushing this? My father was akumitized...There is no way that he could be Hawk Moth. But then again...Why would ladybug be bringing (y/n)s mother into this? Also, why didn't she come to talk to Cat Noir first? I just smile at Marinette and say "Okay where and what time?"

"Behind your house after your party and come alone."

I just nod, but then I remember something, "Why are you her messenger?"

She widens her eyes "I um...Because I'm the least suspicious?"

I just nod "Oh, okay. See you at the party?"

"Of course."

She waves at me when she leaves and I wave back. Why did she have to come at that exact moment? (y/n) was going to say something...What was it? L...O...Wait does she mean...No. Not now, right? She said...I lo-wkey need to go...Why would she need to go to the bathroom? Or did she mean she needed to go to the loo? Either way, why did she need to say it right then and there? Whatever, Americans these days. I'll see her at the party. I need to talk to my father because apparently he has many suits for me to wear to the party.

I walk inside the house and go towards his office, but before I knock I hear (y/n)s mom, "Gabriel, I don't know how you expect me to keep this up for any longer. I know you want your wish to come true...Believe me, I do."

Wish? What wish?

"Camille. Need I remind you, you have no say in the matter. Nathalie can no longer do the job because I will not allow her to go just like Emilie did. I can't lose anyone else."

"Gee thanks for the love, Gabriel. We have been friends forever and I just don't think I can do this anymore. (y/n) might get hurt and I don't want her to lose another parent."

"Please, Camille. You owe me. I need this wish, you know how much she means to me...Just...Do it for a little while more, okay?"

"Fine, but promise me this."

"What? Anything."

"If I am to fall ill like Emilie...Then please take care of both (y/n) and Tori."

"Deal. Now we have a lot of work to do at this party tonight and we have to go over-" I accidentally put pressure on a plank of wood that usually creaks. Crap I forgot that creak was there! I clear my throat, "Father? I'm here for my outfit?"

"Come in."

I go in and see (y/n)s mom eyeing me suspiciously. I just look at her calmly and nod, then look towards my father. "Do you want me to get Natalie if you're busy?"

He shakes his head "No. Camille, I'm sure (y/n) needs a dress."

"Of course."

They nod at each other and my father doesn't bother looking at me and just focus's on the screen in front of him, "Sit. I'll show you a few designs."

"Yes, father," I state

What are our parents up too? Is this what Ladybug wanted to talk to me about? How long has (y/n)s mom known my father? From the looks of it, she knew of my mother. What are they planning? And what's going to happen during the party?
