"M-Marinette... I'm not so... uh, sure about this anymore... can I just... go home?"

Mizuki pulled up his turtleneck collar to cover his embarrassment, his face was red like a tomatoe, and he wasn't sure why he even agreed to come here, he hardly even knew Marinette and her friends, well, he barely knew anyone at the school, despite being here for a long time, he usually isolated himself, away from everyone, but she had convinced him that he would enjoy it, they were going to be practicing for the band they had developed together.

It sounded interesting enough that he THOUGHT about it but was about to have second chances, yet didn't tell her maybe not soon enough, now here he was, boarding a... yeah, boarding a ship. Finding a random place to sit, nervously watching everyone prepare to rehearse. Though, Mizuki thought it was cool they were all brave and proud to share their talent openly, something he could, never do.

"Everyone, this is... do I say Haruko to? Orr?..." Marinette looked back at him, a little confused. "U-umm... M-Mizuki is.. fine" He quietly whispered, awkwardly pulling up his collar more. She nodded, softly smiling seeing him look down "Everyone, I'd like you to meet, Mizuki, a student in the class down the hall, he's very shy and sweet, and he's nervous to be here, but he wanted to meet all of you and watch you practice!" Marinette smiled, looking back down at the timid boy.

"Would you like them to introduce themselves?" She kneeled down beside him, Mizuki shyly looked at her and slowly shook his head "they... can do it after... if they want.." Marinette nodded, standing back up and looking back at her friends "You guys can introduce yourselves after, he's just a bit shy right now"

They all smile and got ready to perform, Juleka and Luke got their guitars, Rose quickly tested her mic, Ivan getting in his seat. Then it begun.

Mizuki payed close attention, he sensed the care and time they had put into the song, Rose looked so proud, they all did. He stayed still, mesmerized by the attention and passion. Brushing, only a bit, of hair, exposing his left eye a bit. His eyes landed on... The boy with the blue hair. Mizuki stared at him... Feeling all of the love he put into his guitar. "Wow..."

The song then had ended. All cheering, then Marinette told them to introduce themselves. Which they gladly did

"I'm Luka. I like your sweater"

Luka... Luka... He barely couldn't hear the others, only catching a few names. Staring at Luka, his hair falling back over his eyes.

He... wow.
