Agreste Mansion; Gabriel's Atelier
Y/N's POV

I stared out the window of Mr. Agreste's atelier that overlooked the city of Paris. I decided to come over and drive together with Adrien and his bodyguard so we could head over to the Couffaine houseboat.

Turning away from the window, I look up at the portrait of a beautiful lady.

Y/N: (walking towards the portrait in awe)This is such... a beautiful... portrait.

Itsy: (scared)Y/N... there's something off... about the portrait.

Looking down at my shirt pocket, I looked at Itsy in confusion.

Y/N: (whispers)That's weird to say all of a sudden, Itsy.

Itsy: I'm... I'm going to go in...!

Y/N: (whispers)Itsy! No -- !

Despite my words, he flew into the

"Mr. L/N?"

Turning to the voice behind me, I saw Nathalie and Mr. Agreste at the door. Gabriel held a slight glare.

Nathalie: What are you doing?

Y/N: (calmly with a small smile)I was just adoring this portrait. (to Gabriel)Is this your wife? I can see some resemblance of Adrien in her.

Gabriel: She is.

He then approaches me and places a hand on my shoulder. We were both looking up at the portrait.

Gabriel: Emilie was a lovely wife.

'Was?'

Gabriel: But an accident happened. She...

He suddenly stops himself and removes his hand from my shoulder. He fixes his tie and cleared his throat. He returns his cold glare on me.

Gabriel: Why are you here, Y/N?

Y/N: I came here to see if Adrien can come with me to see a friends' performance.

Gabriel: Absolutely not.

I looked away from the portrait and towards Mr. Agreste.

Gabriel: He gave me a dissatisfying performance.

'Dissatisfying...? Okay, Y/N... how am I going to convince him to let Adrien go?'

Y/N: Uhm... I can... teach him...?

Gabriel: You know how to play the piano?

Y/N: I do.

Mr. Agreste gave me a reluctant look. He squinted his eyes before turning to exit his atelier.

Gabriel: Follow me.

I sped walked after him and followed him upstairs into... Adrien's room. Looking up from his piano, his eyes widen when he saw me.

Adrien: (stands)Y/N?

Y/N: (waves)Hey.

Walking deeper into his room, Mr. Agreste sat in front of the piano.

Gabriel: (to Adrien)Come sit next to me. We'll watch your friend perform.

Adrien: (looks towards Y/N)Perform?

I shrug my shoulder as I took my seat in front of the piano keys. Adrien slowly sits next to his dad.

Y/N: Do you have any preferences, Mr. Agreste?

Gabriel: You may play whatever you desire. (menacingly)But be careful what you play.

I nodded and rested my fingers on the keys. I breathed in deeply, before exhaling sharply. Before Mr. Agreste would become impatient, I played my first note.
