Past Alya's POV
We all followed our future selves to Future Adrien and Marinette's house after picking up Louis and Emma from the bakery. We walked down the street passing loads of shops and billboards, heading towards their cars.
"Hey Mari look!" I exclaimed pointing to one of the billboards. (Picture I edited above, I had trouble uploading it into the text. I only take credit for the edits I made, not the original photoshop see the original at (Link at the bottom of the chapter)

"Woah Emma you're a model?!" Exclaimed Past Adrien.
"Yeah I was going through some of mum's old things and I found loads of pictures of you, it got me really inspired plus both of you are fashion designers so it was kinda a win win."

"Wait I'm a fashion designer?" Asked a confused Adrien.
"I did look into teaching first but I had spent so much time out of school that it wasn't the best career path, I then joined Mari at Paris college of arts and studied fashion turns out I love designing and acting so I do a bit of both." Explained future Adrien.
"That is so cool!" I exclaimed.

We arrived at the house and we all take a look around.
"Nice place, No Mansion," says an amused Nino.
"We chose something that was a little between Mari's home and my house."

All of a sudden we see Hugo run up from behind a bush.
"Hugo!" We all exclaimed.
"Turns out he did follow us through." Said Emma.
"Next time you guys should take more care of him, he could've been killed."
"Sorry Mum."

"You guys want to check out my room!" Exclaims Hugo running off down the hall."
"Sure!" We all say and follow him.

Past Marinette's POV
"Oh Mari Wait one second!" My future self says pulling me back.
"What's wrong?"
"I just want to say that when you go back using your miraculous ladybug that you won't remember this, the miraculous ladybug's fixes everything back to the way it was it's to keep our universe in check, believe me I have been to different universes with Bunnix and they aren't all that pretty so make use of your remaining time."
"I understand, it's the same as the previous Chat Blanc right."
"Yep."
"I'll keep that in mind."

I ran down the hallway with the others remembering her words make use of your remaining time, sounds exactly like what I said to Bunnix just before tricking Timetagger.
"What did she want?" Asked Past Adrien.
"To remind me of something." I reply taking his hand in mine and squeezing it slightly.

We continue to explore the house and it was more than I could've ever dreamed of. It was definitely bigger than my house but I guess it does have to house 5 people. It had 5 bedrooms all with en-suites, 2 living areas, a balcony, a garden full of plants, pool, spa, an attic where we can transform, kitchen and a study and design room.

Adrien and I parted from the others and we headed into the study and design room.
"Wow!" I gasped immediately running over to the mannequins that were dressed in formal wear.
I ran the fabric through my hands.
"That is definitely silk," I say as I examine the dress.
"That was 4 years studying at college, 3 years hands on experience, 2 casual day jobs, many years practice and a lot of support and encouragement to make that dress," says my future self gazing at it.

"It's beautiful!" I say. I head over to the desk and I see a fashion magazine on it and my eyes jump to the signatures which were neatly written on the corner of the page.
"I kept my surname?"
"I only use my original name when signing autographs but most people know me as Marinette Agreste."
I blush slightly and look over at Adrien who was also red.

Past Adrien's POV
It was all so much to take in. My head was whizzing with thoughts about my future, Marinette and my father. I still wasn't sure if I was ready to proceed from this point I mean all in one day I found out that Marinette is Ladybug who turns out to be my wife, My father is Hawkmoth.

I stared at the photos that were in frames hanging on the wall. They reminded me that I had more family than just my father. I then came across a picture of my Dad with Emma, Louis and Hugo. I feel tears emerge in my eyes, at least he changes.

"Hey Adrien you ok?" Asked Marinette.
"Yeah just a bit overwhelmed." I reply wiping the tears away.
"Turns out I was right about your father."
"What do you mean?"
"Well that day we fought The Collector was the same day I guessed that your father was Hawkmoth."

"I can't believe he was right there in my house and I didn't notice a thing, does that mean we can beat him once and for all." I said.
"No unfortunately we can't, when I summon my miraculous ladybugs to take us back to the past we won't remember this, it's to keep the timeline balanced I don't know how much we will remember afterwards."
"Pity."

We sat in silence for a few minutes just looking at each other. I really can't believe I didn't notice her before. I mean she looks exactly like Ladybug, even when we all had to perform in the music video for Clara Nightingale she was pretty much in costume just had no mask and I still couldn't recognise her. Come to think of it there had been so many coincidences like that.

"It's really hard to believe that we didn't even recognise each other." I say tucking a piece of hair behind her ear.
"Yeah, all those times during school," she replied laughing.
"When you said you were in love with another boy who was it?"
"Oh.......um.... t-that was actually um you."
"Wait what! So I was competing against myself, well now at least I don't need to steal your heart from another guy."
"Yeah I guess...............wait a minute, you like m-me as in me." She asked wide eyed.
"No I love you," I whisper leaning in and kissing her.

"Are we interrupting something?" Asked Past Nino.
"U-uh no, no your not Mari and I were just talking."
"Didn't look like just talking." He replied as we both went red.
"Seriously Nino!" Exclaims Past Alya hitting him on the head
"I value my life! Please don't kill me," Nino says just before running off.
"Come back here Lahiffe!" Yells Alya chasing after him.

Mari and I both Laugh.
"I think we're ready to leave." I say holding out my hand.
"Yeah."

Past Marinette's POV
We both stood up and headed over to the door.
"I think we'll be going now," I say.
"Okay Guys see you," Louis says.

Past Alya and Nino join us all and we all say our goodbyes.
"TIKKI SPOTS ON!"
"LUCKY CHARM!"
"MIRACULOUS LADYBUG!"

We all landed back in a classroom.
"Where am I?" I say.
"Ladybug!? what's going on?" Asked Alya.
"That I don't know," I say rubbing my head.
All of a sudden I hear my earrings beep.
"Looks like I'm about to transform back bug out!"

Time skip to patrol

I swing along the edges of the buildings to meet Chat Noir for patrol. I see him sitting on the edge of the building humming to himself, it was kind of odd because I'm the one who is usually first.
"Hey Kitty."
"Hi Buggaboo." I roll my eyes and sit next to him.
"I've had a very confusing week, I can't seem to remember half the things I've done."
"Weird, I'm the same."

"I only seem to remember some kids named Emma, Louis and Hugo and now everything else is blank, maybe it's an akuma we should head out to patrol."

"I really don't feel like fighting right now, I'm so exhausted and I haven't done anything today besides school." Chat says.
"Let's just hope Hawkmoth has decided to go to bed for the first night in a month." I reply putting my head on his shoulder.
"I never realised how beautiful this place really is."
