My Girl: A Miraculous Story

Chapter 56

Marinette's POV:

"Hi mama- Hi papa."

As I arrive home, I'm greeted by the absolute delicious smell of freshly baked lasagna.

"Hi sweetheart. Leave your things over there and have a seat. Adrien and yourself need to have a taste of your fathers new pasta sauce!"

"Oh- Actually it's just me."

My dad peaks his head out from around the corner.

"Adrien isn't here? Where is he?"

I squint at him.

"Home?"

"Has he had dinner?"

My dad stares very intensely at me as he waits for an answer.

"I- I don't know."

My mom wipes her hands on her apron after preparing the garlic bread.

"Well my poor boy must be hungry. Did something happen with you two?"

"What- Mom. No."

My dad hugs me out of nowhere.

"Honey, you know I love you, but if something did happen between you two, I will always love him as my son."

I push him away.

"Oh my god- You guys are crazy. Look!"

I take out my phone.

"I'll invite him for dinner."

My fathers shoulders actually relax before he speaks.

"You kids can watch that movie I got for you guys after dinner too."

My mom comes around to me and kisses my cheek.

"It'll be late by the time dinner and the movie are over so make sure to tell him to bring his school bag so he can go ahead and spend the night."

"We don't want him out on the road too late."

My dad adds.

I smile as I hear the phone ring in my ear as I make my way to the dinner table to prepare everything while my parents finish up dinner. He answers before the second ring has the chance to make a sound.

"Miss me already, bugaboo?"

"Sorry- I must've dialed the wrong number, kitty cat."

"Ouch!"

He paused for a moment before continuing.

"Is everything okay?"

I smile at his cute concerned voice.

"As long as you get over here fast and try my dads new pasta sauce, everything will be fine."

He chuckles.

"What?"

"Yeah so turns out my parents are like your parents too so get over here and bring your stuff."

"Wait- But-"

I can feel the stress in his voice now.

"Do you- Do you want me to come?"

He asks in a really sad shallow voice that he's attempting to mask.

Of course I do.

"Yes- Why?"

"I don't know- I just don't wanna be there if you don't want me there like- I get it if you need a break from me sometimes and-"

I cut him off as he starts to ramble.
