In Collège Françoise Dupont, Adrien Agreste is known to be the highschool's bad boy. He has a pretty face, but so handsome that every living soul with a preference has to take a double take when passing him, almost everywhere. Obviously, with this kind of power, he used this to his advantage and pretends to care for those who are so head-over-heals for him. After a new student arrives, Adrien finds something out. Not everyone is attracted to a pretty face. Maybe the reason why he fools everyone is maybe he wanted to get them back. Or he was just... scared. And never wanted to love anyone, ever again.

[EDITING] Growing up together, Adrien Agreste and Marinette Dupain-Cheng become inseperable. The classic trope of childhood best friends. Expectedly, Marinette takes a romantic interest in Adrien. On the other hand, Adrien does not see Marinette as anything more than just a friend and instead grows very dependent on her. However things take a turn for the worst when Adrien starts to bully Marinette. Why? She knows. She knows the real reason why and she accepts it. Blinded by his own suffering and succumbing to her own kindness. Two broken teens and so many regrets. But honestly, they wouldn't change a thing.
