Adrien's POV

For a second my mind is blank, then I try to scramble for an excuse.

"Uh, this is the wrong house! My bad!" I try to disguise my voice.

"Hold it! Where's my son?" My mother asks, noticing I'm not in the bed.

"Uhh, bathroom?"

She looks that way, but of course the door is open with nobody in sight.

"Nice try. Have you taken him somewhere?"

At least it sounds like she doesn't recognize me.

"Of course not, what would I want with you son?!"

"I don't know, you're the one taking him."

I almost say that my father is the one that kidnaps, not me, but that's probably a slippery slope, that could lead to me giving away something important. 

So I settle for saying I didn't take  her kid.

"If you don't have him, then where is he?"

"I'll go look for him!"

"Do you even know what he looks like? I suppose you do, if you look in the mirror."

No no no no no!

"Uhh, what?"

"Adrien, I'm not blind. I've known for a while."

"I don't know what you're talking about, um, I need to get home. Hope you find your son!" I say, turning back to the window.

Maybe I can sneak in and pretend I was just somewhere else?

"Don't you go out that window." She says, putting on her Strict Mom voice that I can't argue with.

I hang my head and turn to face her.

"Didn't I tell you a mother could always recognize her child?"

"I was hoping that only applied to age."

"Nope. Now, where have you been? Your girlfriend's?"

"You know about her too?"

"Yes. And I want to know why you lied."

"Because publicly, Adrien isn't dating her, Cat Noir is."

"Ah. When can I meet her? And does she not go to your school or was that another lie?"

"She's homeschooled, like I was!"

"Aw. So is that where you've been?"

"Yeah..." I say sheepishly, not wanting her to get the wrong idea or something.

"Why?"

"We were hanging out."

"This early?"

"We may have been hanging for a long time."

"Since when?"

"Sometime last night?"

"That's what I thought. And what about your sleepover with Nino? Was that actually with her?"

"Yeahhh."

"So her family knows?"

"Yes. She has a nosey sibling who found out about us, and then told everyone."

"Ohh. I'd like to meet her."

"I know. And I would've told you a long time ago, I just couldn't. Secret identities and all."
