Blondes and Bluenettes (Lukadrien and EmiNath) • Miraculous

Chapter 12 | music to my ears

A/n: I'm using an altered version of this is what makes us girls for the song because it kind of reminds me of the dynamic Adrien has with his friends, and Luka. Just swapped all the alcohol to other troublesome things bc the boys are too young for alcohol.

That song the band had asked Adrien to make was coming along. In the past few weeks, as Adrien had been reflecting on everything and Nathalie had confessed the relationship she and his mother had, it really got him thinking.

So he figured why not make it into a song? Get all those emotions out via music?

The band usually did more rock and roll type music, but Adrien was trained in more classical styles. So he'd used his knowledge of piano to form a tune, and asked Luka and his knowledge of violin to help out as well. After practice today, he stayed back with Luka to work on the song.

"So you're going for a more classical sound?" Luka asked.

"Yeah, it'll still have some guitar and drum but I think a softer tone would work best" Adrien replied.

The two sat at the table on the deck of the boat with a laptop and GarageBand open. They'd already figured out a basic tune, and decided on the instruments, now they had to put it all together with the lyrics. Which Adrien was admit he was a bit nervous to show, he'd never written a song before.

"I can definitely do the guitar and violin. What kind of guitar?" Luka said.

"Electric, that deep kind. Like in the opening of 'do I wanna know?'" Adrien replied.

"Oh I know the kind. That'll sound great with the violin. And what's the lyrics?"

Adrien have a nervous laugh, pulling the notebook from his bag and flipping to the page with his final draft.

"I don't know if it's any good... but here's what I've got" he said, sliding the book over to Luka.

Luka picked it up, beginning to read. And he was already impressed on the first line.

This is what makes us boys - Adrien Agreste

Remember how we used to party up all night?
Sneakin' out and lookin' for a taste of real life
Swinging from the rooftops all day.

Sweet sixteen, and we had arrived
Walkin' down the streets as they whistle, "Hi, hi!"
Ditching class with the other guys
Teachers said we'd never make it out alive

There he was, my new best friend
Guitar on his back, swayin' in the wind
While he starts to cry
Mascara running down his little Bambi eyes
"Adri, how I hate those girls"

This is what makes us boys
We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it
This is what makes us boys
We all stick together 'cause we put our love first
Don't cry about her, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen
And that's where the beginnin' of the end begun

Everybody knew that we had too much fun
We were skippin' school and running from trouble
With the city superheroes

Sweet sixteen, and we had arrived
Baby's table dancin' at the local park
Cheerin' our names in the pink spotlight
Drinkin' cherry soda in the velvet night
Yo, we used to go break into the hotel
Glimmerin', we'd swim
Runnin' from the cops in our black tank tops
Screamin', "Get us while we're hot, get us while we're hot"

This is what makes us boys
We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it
This is what makes us boys
We all stick together 'cause we put our love first
Don't cry about her, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen
