Scene: Couffaine Houseboat.

Kitty Section is performing.

"🎵I love unicorns!🎵
🎵And nothing makes me feel better!🎵" Rose sang.

Kalianna sits on the box beside Giselle, admiring the way Luka played.

"🎵...And nothing makes me feel better!🎵" Rose finished.

Kalianna, Giselle, Hiro, Nino, Alya, and Marinette clapped.

The first gets up and walks towards the band.

Adrien smiles at her. "What did you think of my-"

"You were amazing Luka," Kalianna praises the handsome guitarist after she went up to him. "Seriously, ever time you play you get better and better,"

"Thanks Kalianna. You've helped me grow," Luka says.

Kalianna blushes.

Adrien watches the duo interact, the feeling of annoyance eating at him.

"Do you wanna go for lunch right now?" Luka asked Kalianna.

Adrien becomes shocked at the boy's question.

"Sure. Does Cook'n Saj sound good?" Kalianna probed, tilting her head a bit.

Luka nods. "Yeah,"

"Okay then, let's go. We'll take my car there; I'll pay," Kalianna says.

"Wow, what chivalry," Luka quipped.

Kalianna giggled before she walks away with Luka, holding his hand.

Adrien gawks after them as they left the boat.

Giselle, who is admiring the setting sun with Hiro, who's arm was wrapped around her waist, noticed Adrien's expression. She looked at her boyfriend. "I'll be right back babe," She kissed his cheek and walked towards Adrien.

The blonde continued to gawk as Kalianna and Luka got into the De-Sinclair car before it drove away.

Giselle notices what he's staring at and smirks, closing his mouth. "Close your mouth Agreste, you'll get flies."

Adrien snaps out of his daze and vigorously shook his head. "Uh, sorry,"

"Y'know, since your so concerned about Kalianna going to lunch with Luka, maybe you should consider learning how to make her favorite food," Giselle suggests. She then started to walk back to Hiro.

Adrien looks down, pondering the rainbownette's words. "Learning how to cook her favorite food huh?" He mutters.

A honk was heard just then.

Adrien looked in the direction of the noise and saw Gorilla in the Agreste car waiting for him.

Scene: Agreste Car.

Adrien is in the back seat looking out the window as he continued to ponder about Giselle's words.

"Maybe you should consider learning how to make her favorite food."

Adrien cupped her chin, looking down at his lap. His eyes suddenly brightened and he looked up. "I know what to do!" He smiles.

Gorilla hums in confusion at the boy's statement.

Scene: Agreste Mansion.

The Agreste car drives into the courtyard and Adrien opens the door, jumping out and hurrying up the steps.

Nathalie opens the door. "Welcome home Adri-" She gasped when Adrien rushed past her. She looked at him in shock as he knocked on his father's atelier door before entering.

Scene: Gabriel's Atelier.

"Father," Adrien called to Gabriel, who's back was turned as he was looking at the gorgeous portrait of Emilie.

"What is it?" Gabriel asked curtly, his arms tightly behind his back.

(Sukura41: Bro why are you always in your atelier designing ugly clothing or looking at Emilie. SPEND SOME TIME WITH YOUR SON!)

"I'd like to..." Adrien grew nervous, fiddling with his ring. He then breathed off and put on a determined face. He couldn't back out now! "I'd like to practice cooking."

"Culinary Arts?" Gabriel turned his head to the side, raising an eyebrow. "Why so suddenly?"

"I figured it would be a great skill to have. Maybe I could make a video of me modeling and cooking so it could boost your brand?" Adrien says in a questioning tone.

Gabriel turns his head back to Emilie's portrait. He stays quiet for a moment before nodding. "Alright. I'll contact three of the best chefs I know."

Adrien smiles. "Thank you so much father," He then exits the atelier.

Scene: Adrien's Room.

Adrien enters in a happy manner. He goes to his desk and sits down while Plagg flies out of his jacket.

"Are you actually taking your friend's advice?" Plagg questions.

Adrien goes to Google on his computer and types in a few words. "Yes. Luka's already one step ahead of me since Kalianna's so wooed by his guitar skills!" He presses search and many cooking YouTube videos popped up. "So I'll have to acquire some skills of my own," He smirks.

"Don't you already? You already do fencing, practice piano, Chinese, model, and more!" Plagg spread his tiny hand limbs out dramatically.

"Yes, but what's one more?" Adrien shrugs before clicking on a cooking video.

Plagg sighs. "This kid is definitely jealous..."

Scene: Adrien's Room. Next Day.

Adrien is practicing his piano. His eyes are closed as he lets his fingers gracefully slide over the keys.

Just then Nathalie enters. "Ahem," She clears her throat.

Adrien stops and opens his eyes, looking at his father's assistant. "Yes?"

"Your father would like you to meet three chefs," Nathalie says.

Adrien immediately stands up with a smile.

Scene: Agreste Foyer.

Adrien follows Nathalie downstairs and encounters three people wearing chef uniforms and are standing with their hands behind their back.

"Since your taking culinary lessons, your father is giving you some time off modeling," Nathalie told Adrien.

The blonde was extremely relieved at this, but didn't let it show.

Nathalie gestures to the woman in the middle of the two men wearing a black-white uniform.

"This is Hana Laurentiis; a chef and writer. She's sold millions of cookbooks and has several restaurants, including one in Paris," Nathalie gestures to the man standing on Hana's right. "Gordan Flay, a chef and restaurateur. He is the owner and executive chef of several restaurants and franchises," She then gestures to the man standing on Hana's right. "And finally, Javier Sánchez, a chef, television personality, and philanthropist."

"Wow...!" Adrien's eyes sparkled.

"All three of these celebrity chefs are 5 star michelin chefs, meaning they are the best of the best. With that being said, enjoy your culinary lessons, and don't be impolite," Nathalie told Adrien before leaving upstairs.

Adrien smiles sheepishly at the chefs. "Hi, I'm Adrien Agreste,"

The chefs bowed.

"Nǐ hǎo (Hello), Mr. Adrien. What dish would you like to make to start off your first culinary lesson?" Hana questions.

"Kimchi," Adrien responded quickly.

"Ah, a Korean dish, my specialty. Let's get started," Gordan says.

Scene: Adrien's Room.

"Ow, ow, ow, ow," Adrien mutters painfully as he enters his room and closes his door.

Plagg flies out of his owner's jacket and sighs when he notices the bandages wrapped around the boy's hands.

"First day of cooking and you've already managed to burn your soft baby hands. That's an achievement!" Plagg says sarcastically.

Adrien groans, crawling into bed. "Not now Plagg,"

"Hey, it's your own fault. You wanna learn how to cook Kalianna's favorite food because your jealous," Plagg calls him out.

"I'm not jealous, I just don't like Luka hanging around Kalianna," Adrien retorts.

"Oh suuure, that's totally NOT jealousy," Plagg crosses his arms.

Adrien groans once more.

Scene: Collége Françoise Dupont.

Adrien exits his car and walked towards Nino, who smiled at him.

"What up mah dude?" Nino holds up his hand for a fist-bump but notices his best friend's bandaged hands just then. "Whoa, what happened to your hands man?!"

"I'm taking cooking lessons," Adrien told him before making his way up the steps.

Nino scoffs and follows beside him. "You? Taking culinary? Why all of a sudden?"

Adrien blushes and Nino notices.

"Oh... ohhhh, does somebody wanna cook for their special someone?" Nino teased.

"You know me all too well," Adrien shook his head.

Nino notices Kalianna hanging with Giselle by the stairs just then. He smirks and grabs Adrien's shoulder, leading him over to the girls. "Hey, girls,"

The iconic duo looked at the boys and smiled.

"Hey Nino, hey Adrien," Kalianna gasped when she saw Adrien's hands.

"Whoa, what's up with your hands Adrien?" Giselle raised an eyebrow while Kalianna got up.

The noirette grabbed Adrien's lef hand but pulled away when he winced. "I'm sorry, why are your hands bandaged?"

"It's just a couple cuts I got. I'm taking culinary lessons now," Adrien disclosed.

Giselle looked at Nino, only to see him looking back at her.

They both then smirked, knowing the reason why the sunshine boy had decided to take up cooking.

👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳

Scene: Miss Bustier's Classroom.

Miss Bustier watches as her students entered and began taking their seats. Her eyes widened when she saw Adrien's hands. "Adrien, what happened to your hands?"

Everyone looked at Adrien and began to chatter worriedly about his hands.

The blonde sheepishly rubs the back of his neck. "It's nothing Miss Bustier. I'm taking culinary lessons right now so I burned my hands,"

"Oh," Miss Bustier says, relieved along with everyone else. "Well, I can't say you should be more careful, Culinary Arts are bound to let you end up with a few cuts or burns. Let's begin with Poetry, take out your books,"

As everyone began taking out their tablets, Marinette burst in, panting.

"S-Sorry I'm late Miss Bustier," The bluenette shook her head.

"As usual," Chloé sneered.

Marinette glared at her.

Miss Bustier just shook her head, used to her student's tardiness. "Take your seat Marinette, and take out your book,"

Marinette began walking to her seat. She glanced at Adrien and gasped lightly at seeing his bandaged hands before she took her seat next to Alya.

"What's up with Adrien's hands? Did he get hurt?" Marinette muttered to Alya.

"Adrien's taking cooking lessons now," Alya muttered back.

Marinette's eyes widened. "What?! But why? And why so suddenly? I didn't even get a chance to find out!"

Alya shrugs. "I guess he wants to learn how to cook,"

"For who?" Marinette grilled.

"Omg Marinette, can't the boy learn how to cook just because he's interested in it?" Alya frowns at her best friend.

"I guess your right," Marinette responds sheepishly. She then takes out her tablet and stares at the back of Adrien's head.

Something was eating away at her that her obsession had only taken up Culinary Arts to cook for somebody...

Meanwhile, Lila looks at Adrien as well. A smirk formed on her face as an idea formed in her mind.

👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳

Scene: Outside School.

Adrien rushes out and hurried down the steps. He shifted his feet, anxiously waiting for his car to arrive.

"Adrien!"

The boy winced at the familiar voice. He turned to see Lila waving at him and coming down the steps.

"I heard your taking culinary arts," The scarlet brunette says, standing next to him. "I actually took private culinary arts back in Italy with a Michelin star chef. I could come with you and give you some tips if you want,"

Just then the Agreste car arrives.

"No Lila, I already have three chefs teaching me how to cook, I don't need your tips," Adrien told the girl before he walked to his car and got inside it.

Lila watches as the vehicle drives away in shock before growling and storming off, angry that her plan had failed.

👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳

Scene: Three Weeks Later. Collége Françoise Dupont.

"Bro, your not wearing any bandages anymore!" Nino smiles as Adrien came up to him with unbandaged hands, however, there were some scars on them.

The blonde smiles and rubs the back of his neck. "Yeah, I've improved a lot from where I was a couple weeks ago,"

"Awesome," Nino praised as he and Adrien walked up the steps.

After entering the courtyard, Adrien began looking around for a certain noirette.

Nino notices this. "She's up there," He pointed at Kalianna, who was on the second platform chatting with Giselle.

"Ah, thanks Nino," Adrien then ran away from him.

"Don't mention it!" Nino calls after his best friend. "Simp," He smirks.

Scene: Second Floor.

Adrien makes his way towards Giselle and Kalianna. "Kalianna!" He called to her.

The iconic duo turn to him.

"Hey Adrien," Kalianna greets him. She looked at his scarred hands. "I see the bandages are gone. Are you improving in your culinary classes?"

"Yeah, that's actually what I was coming to talk to you about. I wanna show them off to someone and why not let it be you? Would you mind me coming over to your house so I can cook for you?" Adrien probed.

"Of course not, I'd love to see your skills," Kalianna smiles.

Adrien smiles. "Great! I'll follow you to your house after school,"

"Deal," Kalianna replies.

The bell rings just then.

Adrien makes his way to Miss Bustier's classroom while Giselle smirks at Kalianna.

"I have a feeling that lover boy only took up cooking to try and impress you," Giselle guessed.

"You think so?" Kalianna asked excitedly.

"Duh, why else would he? He was clearly jealous a couple weeks back when you and Luka went to lunch after Kitty Section finished performing," Giselle says.

Kalianna sighs dreamily. "So Adrien must love me too~,"

Giselle gasps dramatically. "Oh really? Gee! I hadn't noticed!"

Kalianna glares at her.

👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳

Scene: De-Sinclair Chateau. Kitchen.

Adrien sits Kalianna down in a chair. "Alright madam, what kind of appetizer would you like before the entree?" He asked her.

"Hmmm," Kalianna tapped her chin. "Fried zucchini, Korean style," She decided.

"Lucky for you I've learned plenty of Korean dishes over the weeks," Adrien told her.

"Alright, cook away Chef Adrien," Kalianna instructs. "You'll find everything you need in this kitchen,"

Adrien smiles.

Shortly after, he had acquired a pan, filled it with olive oil, put it on the stove, and lit the fire under it. While letting the oil get hot, he obtained flour, two eggs, a salt shaker, and vegetable oil.

Kalianna leaned her head in her palm as she admired the love of her life make the batter for the zucchini before acquiring the said object from the bridge and putting it on a wooden chopping board. She couldn't help but gasp as he twirled the knife in his hand skillfully before he began to swiftly slice up the zucchini.

After doing this, Adrien dipped each of the zucchini slices into the batter he made with a pair of chopsticks. He then tested to see how hot the oil was by dipping a zucchini slice into the pan, causing to oil to pop off. He hissed when some of it got on him.

"Are you hurt?" Kalianna asked worriedly.

"No, it's fine," Adrien assured her. "This always happens, it means the oil is ready,"

Kalianna giggles. "We both know that,"

Adrien smiles at her and started putting the zucchini slices into the pan, letting them fry. He turned the high fire down on low before heading to the fridge, getting out a bottle of soy sauce.

👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳

"Voila," Adrien places a plate of fried zucchini and a small bowl of soy sauce in front of Kalianna and putting some chopsticks beside it.

"Wow, this looks good. But let's see if it tastes good," Kalianna picked up the chopsticks, picked up a zucchini slice, dipped it in the soy sauce, and took a bite of it, chewing it.

Adrien watches her, anxiously waiting for her verdict.

Suddenly, the noirette's eyes brightened and she made a sound of delight before she swallowed. "That's so good! Mmmm!" She put the rest of the fried zucchini in her mouth, chewing it and sighing happily through her nose.

Adrien bowed. "Glad you like it mademoiselle,"

"Wanna share?" Kalianna offered.

Adrien smiles.

👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳👨‍🍳

Kalianna sighed after she and Adrien finished eating. "That appetizer was really good but not enough to fill me,"

"Luckily for you, I've got a special entree in mind," Adrien stood up.

"Oh really?" Kalianna raised an eyebrow.

"Yes," Adrien grabbed Kalianna's hand, getting her off the chair. "But your gonna have to wait in the dining room for this one,"

Kalianna groandd while Adrien guided her out of the kitchen. "Fiiine, but what about dessert?"

Adrien smirks. "I'll take care of that too, now off you go,"

Kalianna groaned once more and walked away towards the dining/living room.

Scene: Dining Table.

"Your really getting spoiled today Kalianna," Tikki told her owner.

"Tell me about it. Do you think Elle is right? Did he take up cooking lessons for me?" The ravenette inquired.

"I think he did. Why else would he come up to you and ask if he could cook for you knowing he could've asked his other friends? He wanted to cook for you specifically!" Tikki pointed at Kalianna.

Kalianna sighs dreamily and slumps down in her chair. "That's the most romantic thing anyone could do for me,"

"Now all you need is for someone to serenade you. Maybe a certain guitarist would do?" Tikki asked playfully.

Kalianna blushes.

Just then footsteps were heard and Tikki flew into Kalianna's purse.

"And here it is," Adrien placed a dish of Kalianna's favorite food in front of her, making her gasp.

"Kimchi!" The amber-eyed girl squeals. "Awww, Adrien, thank you!" She hugged her close friend.

Adrien chuckles while he pulls away. "Your welcome. After your entree, we can share your favorite
