Adrien heard the scuffling of his father's feet outside his bedroom door. As much as it was hard to believe, Adrien knew that his father loved him. Even with his cold demeanor and strictness. Adrien heard his father's breathing through the door; he has been checking on him for the past few weeks. On the bright side, it was a lot better than no signs from his father at all.

Adrien liked waking up in the early mornings of Paris, . He adored going to school and seeing his friends. It was that, that made him happy to wake up. You can consider him a morning bird. A bird that was ready to jump out into the wind, spread his wings, and fly.

Actually, don't imagine that. If Adrien was a bird, he would be allergic to himself.

Adrien slid open his closet door. He saw the designer t-shirts, designer jeans, and even more designer clothes. Adrien furrowed his brow in concentration. Should he be Mr. Perfect again or something else? It can't hurt to try something else in a while right?

In the end, he chose to wear some ripped skinny jeans that were a gift from Nino, a plain, white shirt, and the black sweatshirt that resembled Cat Noir's suit that Adrien treasured. It was another birthday present from Marinette, his girlfriend.

Plagg was still asleep in his trash bin so Adrien had to plop him into his bag in case of another akuma attack.

Adrien saw his perfectly groomed hair in his bathroom mirror.

"No thank you. Today, I'm gonna wear what I want", Adrien thought. He simply ruffled the hair to a more spiky and shaggy version. He always did prefer his Cat Noir hair to his normal hair. Within a minute, he was ready. Adrien beamed. It was time to meet up with his personal favorite angel.

Marinette was star-struck. Not only was her boyfriend finally wearing the sweatshirt that she specifically designed for him, he looked drop-dead gorgeous in it too. These rambling thoughts were crowding her overwhelmed head as she tried to keep a straight face.

Adrien was pleased with Marinette's flushing face. Ever since finding out that the love of her life was THE Cat Noir, Marinette had been able to express herself more confidently without her insecurities dragging her down. However, it was nice to see her like this all over again, cute and flustered, just like in the past. It was so cute, that Adrien had to play a little prank on her.

Just when Marinette seemed to calm down from her ADRIEN IS SO HOT nerves, Adrien pressed a surprise kiss against the back of her neck.

With a frightened squeal of fear, Marinette screamed at nothing. Her focus came back into view when she noticed Adrien laughing his head off.

Marinette pouted. "You're so mean." She crossed her arms and tried to stay mad, but she couldn't help giggling at Adrien's sweet kisses all over her face.

"Only to you my lady." Adrien stuck his tongue out at her.

"Oh, it is so on." Marinette said.

After school, Adrien was feeling more sunshiny than ever. His friends described him with that word so much that it grew on him. Sunshiny. He didn't care that he had an overload of homework to do at home. All Adrien was feeling was something that he hadn't felt in such a long time. True happiness.

A knock appeared on his bedroom door. "Adrien?" It was Nathalie, his father's assistant. "Your father would like to speak with you."

Adrien stood up. It was probably another scheduled photo-shoot or something. Nothing more. He thanked Nathalie for letting him know and traveled to his father's workspace. It was where his father always was ever since his mom disappeared.

Adrien knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"You wanted to see me father?" Adrien rubbed the back of his neck anxiously. It was a habit that he hadn't broken out of yet.

"I've recently heard some disturbing news," his father said. "from Miss Bourgeois."

Adrien groaned. Again?! "Okay father. If she said that she wants to date me, I've told her many times that I-"

"It's not that." Gabriel interrupted. "It's about the clothes you wore to school today. And from the clothes that you're wearing right now, it shows that what's she was saying is true."

Adrien looked down at the same clothes he was wearing to school on his body. "These clothes?"

"Yes." His father's eyes were glaring, a look of disgust and disappointment. "She spoke about it on her international live-show. The whole world knows about your change in style. This is very bad for my business. Did you even think about the consequences of that decision to not wear designer clothing to school today?!"

Adrien couldn't believe his ears. This is what his father was wasting his life on? To control whatever he does? Even what clothes he wears? This was preposterous and petty! "Father! Listen to yourself! Are you even thinking about what you're saying! They're just CLOTHES for god's sake!" Adrien shouted.

"Don't talk back to me!" Gabriel yelled back.

"No!" Adrien screamed. "I'm sick of being some perfect son! I was never the son you wanted and I'll never be him! The only reason that I did what you asked was because I thought it would make you happy! I thought that it would ease your pain from mom's disappearance, so I sacrificed my entire life and happiness so that you could be happy! Don't you get that father?!"

Adrien whispered the rest of his drowning words. "This is who I am so please father. Don't try to-" His words were cut off. The world seemed to stop and time stopped ticking. Adrien doubled over. The blood was dripping down from his cheeks from his father's nails. It didn't hurt that much at first, but the throbbing was the first wave of pain.

"Go to your room Adrien." His father said.

It was the last thing that Adrien wanted to say. "Yes father."

More angsty father and son relationships. Just what we all need. :joy:
