Chapter 19
"Congratulations Marinette and Adrien!" Kagami said, the first to speak, though inside she was crying. She was not the only one upset at the news but she was the one who a black butterfly was attracted to. It didn't get to land on her though as Luka spotted it, caught it, and dragged Marinette into another room.
"Transform now Ladybug," he said, showing her the akuma, "This thing is tempting me too."
So, Marinette transformed and purified the butterfly. Adrien followed only to see the end where the butterfly flew off. He left the "pound it" to Luka as he was too late. Even so, he couldn't help feel a little bit envious.
Luka, saw him and took advantage of having him alone-ish, and asked, "Can you come here for a second Adrien?"
"Sure" nodded Adrien as he entered the room Marinette and Luka was in.
"Hey, I'm sorry about this but in order to cover this up I think I should play. Could you play some of the songs with me? I won't sing that song though." Luka promised.
Adrien understanding the promise, nodded, "Sure, let's do this!"
"Marinette, could you please introduce us?" Asked Luka as he took out his guitar that he carried everywhere with him.
"Sure," and she went out to their living room, "Ladies and gentlemen for your musical entertainment, please put your hands together for the musical stylings of Luka and Adrien!"
The pair, having very briefly discussed what to play came out and performed for a little while before moving onto the next thing.
The party continued till about 1 am when everyone who didn't live at the house left.
The next morning, Marinette woke feeling sick and threw up. This continued for a week before Alya, noticing that Marinette was mainly sick in the mornings and had started having weird cravings like pickles and ice-cream, thought that perhaps Marinette was pregnant.
"Marinette, girl," Alya said plopping herself down on the couch next to Marinette, taking advantage of the time Nino and Adrien was away, "I have to know, have you used protection at all with Adrien? I mean of any sort, like the pill?"
Marinette looked at Alya blankly, clearly not understanding the question.
"I take your look to be a 'No' then," sighed Alya, before addressing her concern, "Marinette, I think you maybe pregnant. You are showing the early signs of it."
"Me? Pregnant?" Marinette laughed nervously, "No, no, no that couldn't happen."
"Yes! It could!" Alya stated matter of factly, "Let's face the facts girl, you and Adrien have been at it like rabbits, well at least while we have been here. Mind you Nino and I aren't much better, but I know we have used protection. You and Adrien, however, I don't think that concept would have occurred to you, no offence."
Marinette nodded, it was true, they had been.
"I think that we should get a pregnancy test and see," suggested Alya practically, "If I'm wrong great. If I am right, well at least you can prepare for the little one. I don't see either of you getting rid of what you created."
Marinette nodded her agreement, and the pair went out to pick up some tests from the chemist. Upon returning Marinette hurried to the bathroom and took the test she had just bought.
She watched the test soak up her pee, running along the oval area and two lines appeared. There was the undeniable proof that she was pregnant. She sat there stunned for a moment, until Alya knocked.
"Girl, are you ok?" She asked, worried for her friend, as she was taking too long.
"Yes Alya, I am ok!" Marinette replied as she got up and left the toilet after flushing and washing her hands. She left the test on the sink.
"So what was it?" Alya asked.
"You were right, I am pregnant," smiled Marinette.
"You're not upset?"
"No, why should I be? I don't have any reason to be unless Adrien rejects his child, and I don't see that happening."
"You're right there," laughed Alya, "If anything he will become annoyingly overprotective of you. He's bad enough now."
Marinette nodded her agreement, "You could be right. But how am I going to tell him?"
She need not have worried as Nino and Adrien arrived home and rushed to their respective bathrooms to relieve themselves. Adrien was washing his hands when he spied the positive test and realised that someone was pregnant. He picked up the test and went back downstairs to the girls.
"Who's this?" He asked curious.
"Mine," replied Marinette a little anxiously.
Adrien stood there with a big goofy grin forming on his face, "So I am going to be a Father?" He asked.
"Yes. Is that ok?" Marinette answered hesitantly.
"Is it ok?" Adrien replied, "It's more than ok! It's the best news ever! Well since you agreed to marry me." Picking her up and spinning her around in circles. "I'm so excited! We better tell your parents!"
"What about your Dad?"
"No, he doesn't need to know. For sure he would find someway to ruin our happiness." Adrien said adamantly.
Nino came down the stairs then, and asked, "What is all the commotion about?" directing his question to his fiance who was smiling in amusement at the other couple's joy.
"Marinette is pregnant," replied Alya. Adrien and Marinette simply weren't listening, they were wrapped in their personal bubble of delight.
"Way! Congratulations Dude and Dudette!" Nino offered them his congratulations.
Lucky for him, the couple heard and said, "Thanks Nino! Do you guys want to come for a walk to tell Marinette's parents?"
"Sure," said Alya, "This time I'm recording the event. Adrien's reaction was priceless, and I missed it all."
Ayla recorded the happy event as she was right Marinette's parents were over the moon to be grandparents. They were only a little disappointed to hear that the couple had failed to use protection like they had advised them too, but they weren't overly surprised though as they knew both their daughter and Adrien well. Neither, in their opinion, would have remembered to use prevention.
