Songs-Steal your heart by Ross Lynch and You're not alone by Michael Jackson
Since Adrien wasn't ready to be social and out in public again, especially since he knew the press would ask him a lot of questions about his disappearance from the public after his mom died he decided to form a new identity for his musical career.
Adrien didn't want to create an identity that would be completely out of his character but he also didn't want to make it obvious that it was him at least not until he felt that he was ready.
Even though he was still depressed he wanted to give a positive vibe to the public yet to still be someone that could sing songs about all kinds of emotions. One day Adrien was sitting on his bed petting his cat Plagg trying to think of an alas for his performance. "Plagg, what should I do? I can't even think of what personality I should show, much less a name."
Plagg just looked at him blankly. "Meow."
Adrien smiled. "I wish I was a cat, my life would be so much more easier… wait a minute…THAT'S IT! Plagg you're a genius my new identity will be a cat theme." Adrien hugged Plagg.
That's how Chat Noir was born, a cat themed popstar that stole the hearts of his fans. As Chat Adrien was still himself but he was more positive and he gave a more carefree personality. To the public Chat was a hard working smart talented popstar. He was also known as a flirt who uses cat puns constantly. Adrien was able to show a side of himself that he never showed before and he liked it.
The only people that knew that Chat Noir was Adrien Agreste was his father and the people who worked for him. Becoming Chat was a drastic change in Adrien's life but it was nothing compared to what would come next.
That day was a bright sunny day in Paris and Adrien was in the recording studio recording his latest song Steal your heart. The song was written by his record label since Adrien only wrote songs about the emotions and experiences he had and he never fell in love with a girl before though the song was something Chat Noir would sing since he was a big flirt.
"That's good for today Adrien go take a break I'll call you if I need you." Adrien's agent told him once Adrien was done recording the song.
Adrien nodded. "Alright." As Adrien walked to his dressing room he kept singing the song with a smile. When he reached his dressing room he saw a bluenette girl around his age standing by the door. He walked over to her. "Hi, can I help you?"
The girl looked at him with a soft smile and took out a notebook and opened it to a page that read. 'Hi my name is Marinette Dupain-Cheng. I'm here to design your new outfit for your next music video.'
"Oh right my dad told me that you were coming but why are you communicating through a notebook?" Adrien asked, confused.
Marinette turned the page and it read. 'I was born without vocal cords so I can't speak so I communicate with a notebook or by using sign language for those who know it.'
"Oh well I know sign language so if that's easier for you to communicate I'm fine with that." Marinette nodded. "Please come in." Adrien opens the door for her and leads her in before closing the door. "Did you have anything in mind?"
Marinette nodded while signing. 'I have some ideas. I was thinking of something black with a cat look to it since you are Chat Noir so what do you think?'
"Sounds good to me." Adrien replied.
Marinette nodded before signing. 'Great, is there something specific that you would like to have?'
Adrien thought about it before answering with his Chat Noir persona. "Hm some cat ears would be nice and maybe a pretty girl like you."
Marinette blushed while signing. 'Are you flirting with me?'
"Maybe it's up to you to figure that out." Adrien replied with a wink.
'Wow only 5 minutes in and you're already flirting. It's true about what they say about you.' Marinette signed with a casual smile.
Adrien raised an eyebrow. "And what do they say?"
Marinette smirked as she signed. 'That's up for you to figure out Chat Noir.'
She started going on about designs and Adrien would pick the ones he liked. Throughout their meeting Adrien would notice little things about her. She had pretty blue eyes and she would tap her pencil while she designed. He also noticed that her design book was full of designs that impressed him and he had an idea.
"Hey Marinette." Marinette looked up at him. "Do you want to hear a song?"
Marinette was confused as she signed. 'A song?'
"Yea I could sing you a song if you want." Adrien replied.
Marinette laughed. 'That's a good one.'
Adrien frowned. "I wasn't joking."
Marinette stopped laughing and looked at him in shock. 'Y-you're serious?' Adrien nodded. 'Okay then let's hear it.'
For some reason Adrien felt his cheeks feel hot. He was embarrassed and not Chat Noir but Adrien Agreste. He gulped and pushed the feeling away. "Sure princess this song is just for you." He winked at her and Marinette blushed.
He took out his guitar and started playing while singing the new song he basically wrote for his mom, though the label changed it so it sounded more like a romantic love song and he called it You are not alone.
Once he was done Marinette looked at him in shock. 'Whoa.'
"Impressed yet princess?" Adrien asked with a smirk.
Marinette smiled playfully. 'Maybe.'
Adrien didn't know it yet but Marinette would turn his world upside down.
