"Nathalie what the hell!" Gabriel mumbled under his breath as he was pulling away his fiancée from everyone, and dragging her into an empty room
"I was searching for you all over the house a-and I-I f-find you talking with a random guy?!??"
"Sir he is not random" she responded calmly "we've met before!"
"Yes but-"
"-Gabriel are you saying that you cannot trust me talking to others because you think I'd be cheating on you or whatever?"
"I-"
"You've seriously got to be kidding with me!" She spat worrying her boss a little since that was the exact reason of his fears, however the man felt that if he'd tell Nathalie that he didn't trust her then she'd be incredibly angry at him.
So Gabriel denied the truth:
"Nath that's not how I meant it-"
"But that's what you thought!" She shouted angrily "Well sir just because you can't help yourself but cheat and go back to your previous wife, it doesn't mean that I'm that desperate! And I most definitely won't lower myself onto such level where I'd be fucking her boyfriend!"
"I know I know! I wasn't thinking like that" the grey haired man apologized "...okay well maybe I was...but Nath I know that you're a loyal person who wouldn't actually do that...so please forgive me? I'm just a bit overprotective."
However instead of instantly forgiving the man and solving all their problems with a hug, the dark haired woman just shrugged and walked past her fiancé.
"Once you learn to trust me. That's when I can forgive you. Until then I'll be waiting."
"I-...Nathalie!-...P-please-..." The designer desperately said as he tried to reach after the arm of his assistant and like that pull her back, however at the slightest bit that Nathalie felt his hands touch hers she smacked it away and gave the man a disgusted stare.
"Don't touch me Gabriel!" She spat "Only once you trust me!"
"B-but I d-do trust you! I'm sorry! I just overreacted! I don't want to lose you Nath! In fact I'd do anything for you!"
Still not fully convinced but a little less angry the dark haired woman turned back to face him.
"Alright but you have to stop this overprotective nonsense. I can protect myself!"
"Y-yes yes of course! I'll stop!"
"Okay good." She smiled and stepped a bit closer to the man so that she could lean forward from there and give her boss a tiny hug before apologizing:
"And I'm sorry for being so mean right now, I don't know what got into me."
"That's alright Nath" Gabriel chuckled "I sort of like you bossing me around. It's very cute of you!"
"Cute??? CUTE?!?"
"Oh yes, you're adorable when you're mad."
"Oh shut up!!" She hit him again, actually hard this time. "You be quiet!!"
"Would you care to make me though?" The designer asked with a grin whilst backing away from his fiancée as he thought that she might hit him again or do something along those lines, but this time Nathalie simply stared at her superior open mouthed.
"Wow sir." She began shocked "You're really teasing me aren't you?!?!"
"I-...maybe."
"Oh you!! Darn you!!" She shouted out of frustration, yet still not moving to hit or punch him. She just stomped angrily in one place.
"You're mean!!"
"Ow Nath don't insult me like that, it hurts my feelings!!"
"Well you suggesting such....such 'things' w-whilst knowing damn w-well that we can't-...,hurts m-me!" Nathalie cried "Y-you know how much I love you and want you every second of the day! But now you're taking advantage of that in a terrible way!"
"Okay-okay I take it back, I didn't mean to upset you so badly." Gabriel stepped back closer to his almost wife, took her hands into his, and after a few seconds of her staring into his eyes whilst tearing up, the designer pulled her close against him.
"I promise that once we get back to Paris I'll do anything to make up for upsetting you! Anything okay my love?"
The assistant smiled to just the simple sound of 'my love' coming out from her boss's mouth and it being all about her.
So she didn't even care about the rest of the sentence, Nathalie simply nodded along.
"Yes sir, that sounds truly wonderful."
"It sure does, love." He kissed her.
...
Once most people were gone, and the atmosphere had calmed down, only the 'close' part of the family remained.
Meaning Gabriel's side, and Emilie's side.
The old friends and somewhat relatives all were gone by then.
Now the adults were sharing some drinks in the meantime of discussing life issues whilst the children, or not so mature humans were just a few meter away from the adults, fooling around and talking about their own little issues.
"So Felix...how is your mom?" Adrien asked a bit awkward as he couldn't let the two smaller kids of Alice out of his view, so he had to always run after them whilst managing a conversation with his older cousin.
"My mother?" The other blond boy returned with a strange voice "She is fine, why do you ask?"
"Oh I don't know!" The teenager lied, he wanted to know if his cousin suspected anything, anything as in if he knew that his real mom was dead, and the woman he'd been calling mom for the past 17 years or so was actually Adrien's mother.
"She just seemed very close with her boyfriend today so I wanted to ask-"
"Well they are both fine!" Felix sharply cut him off "They have been fine for as long as they've been together, so it's normal for them to stay so...close, as you said."
"And you're not bothered by that? I-I mean you don't seen so h-happy-"
"I don't care Adrien!" The boy spat "As long as my mother stays happy and won't annoy me with some of her bullshit then I'm fine! Plus that guy isn't bothering me at all since he very kindly stays out of my 'business'. So at least he isn't a snitch."
"Oh." The innocent child awkwardly smiled "Well that's great to hear!....a-and s-so y-you still do b-business?"
"Well of course! How else would I make a living?"
"I-...oh I just thought that your mom pays for you-"
"Well she does partially, but this business of mine gives me extra cash which comes in handy, doesn't it?" Felix glanced over at his girlfriend the second he uttered his question, and without a second of hesitation the blond girl beside him nodded.
"Of course Felix." She replied rolling her eyes in an annoyed manner "Without you we'd be nowhere."
To that Adrien could only nod and smile stupidly because he didn't know what else to do.
I mean he could've straight up told his cousin that his mother was dead, but the blond boy didn't exactly want to make Felix mad, because that surely wouldn't turn out good.
So instead Adrien just stayed out of his cousin's 'business' as the older one called it.
"So he is not coming back right?" The question came from Alice and was directed to her father as they sat in front of one another and were discussing important matters during everyone else's 'normal' conversations.
"No, I promise that this stupid fucking idiot won't ever even lay eyes on you! He is dead, he is gone, you don't need to worry!"
"I-okay." The woman smiled and sighed in relief. "Good to know that Tom is finally gone, thank you so much dad!"
"Of course, it's the least which I could do for you my dear." Gabriel smiled and watched as his daughter returned that smile kindly.
Then, suddenly, Alice got surprised by the voice of a man behind her, whom was none other than her now official husband.
"Love I thought that maybe we should put the kids to bed..." Martin began "...after all it is very late."
"I-oh-yeah." She returned unaware of time or anything at all as this day had been so much for her that it got the blond woman confused and exhausted.
No-one could blame her though, such a wedding ceremony with so many guests was no easy task for anyone.
"I-I should g-go-...dad it was lovely to have you and Nathalie here at my-OUR-wedding, I know you guys are only leaving tomorrow morning but I don't think I'll wake up before 3pm so I'll say my goodbyes now."
The grey haired man chuckled as he saw his daughter getting up all tired and drained from energy just to hug him, and even though she was very weak at that moment, their hug was still so strong that it even got Gabriel tearing up a bit.
"Well thank you for inviting us, it was a pleasure. And of course I wish you two the very best, after all, I guess Martin isn't such an annoying guy."
"I-" the brown haired man gasped to the sound of that, but as he watched his wife's father start to laugh, he laughed along "-Thank you sir, I guess you aren't so bad either."
With that both men nodded in agreement and smiled at Alice who awkwardly smiled back.
"Gosh you two" she rolled her eyes "You're worse than toddlers."
"Speaking of toddlers-"a female voice interrupted all of a sudden "have you told them yet?" Nathalie wondered with a grin, yet as she saw the color fade away from her daughter's face, her grin faded just like that too.
"Oh-"
"Told us what?" Gabriel asked
"Yeah, is there something you'd like to say my love?" Martin added.
And as if this situation couldn't have gotten any worse, even Emilie entered the conversation as she placed her hands on Alice's shoulder and mumbled:
"What have I missed?"
Now the young woman was totally shaking in fear because no matter where she looked she was surrounded by her entire family's questioning face.
Even the kids focused on her as they saw all the adults crowded around one place.
"Love, are you okay?" Martin stepped closer to his wife, worried that she'd fall or collapse as she was looking rather very pale "Is it something serious?" He asked but Alice didn't answer, she only broke away from Emilie's weak little hold and rushed to hide away in her husband's arms.
"I-...uhm-...I'm fine..." she whispered to Martin, and him only "...b-but I-it is a bit important."
"And you don't want to tell me?...I mean tell...us?"
"Well I do-...b-but-"
"But?"
"But I don't know how you'll react! I'm scared okay!!!!"
"Okay okay, I understand." The man kissed the top of his wife's head in hopes of that calming her down a bit, unfortunately though, it didn't seem like it was doing much because Alice was just as worried and anxious as she was before.
So Martin had to try harder.
"....don't worry" said he "...I'm sure no one will be mad at you or disappointed in you. I mean it's not like you've done some criminal activity, right?"
"Oh of course not you idiot!" She punched him "...Why would you even say that!! Now you're making me look bad!!"
"Ow I didn't mean to, sorry love. Only wanted to support you and reassure you so that you'll feel safe to tell me-US-I meant us."
"Gosh Martin you're no help! You're making everything more embarrassing in fact!! Why can't you just shut up sometimes!!"
"I-...I'm sorry."
"Don't be..." Alice scoffed "...it's not like I'm actually mad, you just frustrate me sometimes, but I still love you very much." She whispered before clearing her throat and now speaking louder so everyone could hear "S-so-...uhm...big news...I'm pregnant."
