"Thank you so much, if it weren't for you we wouldn't be able to do any of this" Nathalie said, giving Lukas parents each a tight hug.

"Don't even mention it, as long as Adrien is with Luka he as well as you two are part of the family" Anarka replied.

The last bits of furniture and belongings had finally been moved in. And with the trail now over, the Ghram de vanilly, formerly Agreste family could finish decorating their new home and settle in. And of course, Luka was quick to offer to help Adrien decorate his new room.

Thanks to the help of his family, every box as been moved in and there were only a few left to unpack. The boys had organised a sleep over so they could decorate Adrien's room all through the evening.

"I'll pick you up at about 3pm ok kid?" Jagged told Luka.

"Alright, I'll hopefully be awake by then" he replied.

"See you tomorrow"

Waving off Lukas parents, he was left with Adrien and his mums.

"Alright, before you two run off upstairs, what should we do for dinner?" Emilie asked.

"Hmm... OH! Nathalie do your really good carbonara!" Adrien suggested.

"I can do that, I'll need to run out for some ingredients though" Nathalie replied.

"I'll do that, you need to rest after everything that's happened. You're still recovering, I got magic healed remember? I can handle it" Emilie said.

Nathalie smiled, glad she was being taken care of. In truth after all the stress from escaping with Adrien, the trial and moving, she was really tired. But Emilie had been helping her every step of the way from the moment she was revived.

The sentence for Gabriel? Guilty. Of terrorism for his crimes as hawkmoth, child abuse against Adrien, attempted breaking and entering for the times he showed up at Jagged's door threatening him and gross negligence for allowing Emilie and Nathalie to get so sick under his care. He wasn't getting out of prison, ever. Finally his ex wife and son were free from him.

"Thank you, I'll unpack the pots and pans" She said.

"I won't be long, behave for her boys!" Emilie replied.

The boys agreed to be on their best behaviour for the recovering mother and with a kiss on her cheek Emilie was off to get some ingredients. The boys scrambled upstairs into Adrien's half finished room, eager to get to work.

So far the bed, desk, closet and shelves had been set up. Things were starting to take shape but they needed a more personalised touch. Adrien opened one of the boxes, getting things out and onto the desk to organise.

"I printed some photos and got some posters, I think they'd go well on the wall by the bed" he said.

Luka looked over his shoulder at all the stuff he'd gathered, liking the general aesthetic Adrien had going on.

"You're right, it'd look good. You can put the photos around the posters like a frame" Luka suggested.

"Good idea, and then I can put the strung lights above it"

Adrien had been excitedly planning the decor all through the trail. Whenever he needed to take a break from all the trauma and stress he'd jump onto Pinterest and look for inspiration, sending several pins to Luka for a second opinion. That was what have Luka an idea, something to add to the poster wall that Adrien was planning.

"By the way, I got something for you" Luka spoke up, digging into his bag.

"You did? Come on Luka you don't have to" Adrien replied.

"It'll go great on the poster wall, here"

He handed two things over, a folded flag and a rolled up poster. Adrien could tell what that flag was immediately by the colours, and when he let it unravel the colours of the Bisexual flag were revealed. Now he was out to everyone, he could fly the flag with no worried, it felt nice to have.

"You're right! It can go at the end of the bed, that's the perfect spot" Adrien smiled.

He then unrolled the poster, finding it to be one of the kitty section posters the band had made up in preparation for future gigs.  Complete with band photo, logo and members names. And of course, he and Luka stood together under the stage lights under the logo.

Adrien's smile brightened and he pulled Luka in for a hug.

"Thank you, these will go perfectly" he said.

"I knew you'd like them" Luke replied, placing a kiss on his cheek.

They were quick to get to work decorating, listening to music and chatting as they did. All the photos and posters went up on the walls, the books on the shelves and computer set up on the desk. They managed to get all the boxes unpacked and folded up, only stopping to have dinner before going right back to work. By the time they got to the balcony decor, it was dark outside and the night was cool.

They wrapped string lights around the railing, set up a swinging chair (which took several attempts and a-lot of playful bickering) and hung some sun catchers that would glisten when the sun rose the next morning. When they finally finished everything, they collapsed into the chairs and could finally relax.

"That's it! We did it all in one day" Adrien said.

They high fived in victory, pleased with their work.

"It looks great, it's exactly how I'd picture your space. It's so you and so cosy" Luka replied.

Adrien leaned against Lukas shoulder, feeling his arm wrap around him in return. They looked out at the city lights across the canals, the docked boats bobbing in the water below them.

"Thank you for everything, you truly mean to the world to me baby blue" Adrien said.

"I'd do anything for you sunshine, I love you" Luka replied.

"I love you too"

On the same wavelength, their lips met and they shared a gentle but passionate kiss. It felt so nice, just being together under the stars with no more worries, tasting each others lips and enjoying each other's presence.

Below them a two floors down, the mothers of the household were out on the patio finishing up some decorating themselves before heading inside for the night.

"I say we do all the laundry stuff tomorrow, and after that all we have left is the garden" Emilie said, hanging up a hanging pot with strawberries in it she'd just bought.

"Good idea, laundry shouldn't be too hard. All the machines are already done we just need to fill the cabinets and clean up a bit" Nathalie replied.

They'd set up an outdoor table and chair set earlier, and Nathalie needing some time to rest had sat down with some tea while Emilie finished up the deck. She wanted to help, but the blonde instead she take it easy.

"What do you think? Put the wind-chime next to it or by the door?" Emilie asked, standing back to look at the pot she'd just hung.

"I say next to it. It'd stand out more" Nathalie replied.

"You're right, it can go on that hook"

Emilie picked up the windchill and went to hang it, only to find she was too short to reach this particular hook. Pulling up a chair she stepped onto it it reach.

"Careful Em" Nathalie said.

"Don't worry I'm not wearing heels this time. Learnt my lesson last time we decorated a house together" Emilie replied.

Nathalie snickered at the memory. They'd shared so much time together, so many memories to look back on. Every one of them was a joy to reminisce about, and Nathalie was beyond glad Emilie was here again to share that joy with her.

"There, all done" Emilie said, getting off the chair and putting it back by the table to sit next to Nathalie.

The linked hands, giving each other a loving squeeze.

"I'm so glad it's all over. Adrien is happy, I'm happy, you're happy. You're recovering, I'm alive, Gabriel is locked up... it's all going to be perfect now... I just know it" Emilie said.

"Me too, we can just relax for a while. Let Adrien finish school out of the spotlight and I can recover. We can all just let things be" Nathalie replied.

"Thank you for everything Nathalie... if it weren't for you protecting my baby boy I wouldn't be alive today"

"I made you a promise, I intended to keep it"

Emilie pulled her into a hug, nuzzling her head into Nathalie's neck.

"Thank you... I love you" she smiled.

"I love you too, I'm so glad I can finally call you mine" Nathalie replied.

Leaning in, they met lips for a kiss. Every kiss they shared filled Nathalie's heart with pure joy. This was all she ever wanted and finally, she had it.
