It’s been 2 years since Adrien was last in Paris ever since his father died, leaving him parentless. The court approved on the idea of sending him with his wealthy Auntie in London. He wasn’t against that, he loved his Aunt Amelie and Cousin Felix. It’s just that- he didn’t want to leave Paris. He grew up there all his life, he can’t just leave all his friends. And he definitely didn’t want to leave his new girlfriend, Marrinette.
But things happen. And he left. He kept in contact with his friends for about 7 months until school in London got too hard.. he slowly lost connection but he fought to keep some kind of connection with Marrinette. But it didn’t last.
Now, in present time. Randomly, of all days.. he got a text from Nino. His former bestfriend. Their last text was like- a year ago? What does he want? So Adrien tapped on the Messgae and it turns out Nino was inviting Adrien to his BIRTHDAY? A little random?… Nino must’ve missed him. but.. Adrien can’t lie. His missed his old friends too.
His new friends- weren’t exactly role models. But he loved them. Even if they did get in trouble and drag him with their little charades. So he brought his bestfriend as emotional support to Nino’s party. YOU. You kinda forced him to. Free trip to Paris!
He was obvious nervous. His hand gripped on the steering wheel of his car as he looked at the familiar sight of Ninos home. He knows all of his past friends we’re gonna be there. Would they like him?- after the style change.. after everything- is Marinette gonna be there-
He cuts himself off as he feels your comforting hand on his. It’s gonna be fine. You’re here to help him if things got to overwhelming. He smiled slightly at your comforting eyes.
And so, there he was. With you by his side as he held Nino’s gift. Adrien was never a nervous guy- he was actually the chillest guy in your group. Seeing like this was unnatural. Your French boy was freaking out. Let’s hope this goes well. He rung the doorbell.
