It was finally school holidays, no more homework or waking up early to get to school. Finally, Luka could get some sleep.

Or, what's what he wanted to do.

"LUUUKKAAAA! What are you doing still in bed kiddo? First day of holidays let's do something!"

Ah, he knew that voice well by now.

"Uugghh dad it's too early-" he groaned, trying to pull the blankets over his head only to have them ripped off.

"It's almost midday. Come on I'm taking you out, father son day" Jagged replied.

Since the whole incident as truth, the absent father had reconnected with his kids. Looking back on everything he realised that he really hadn't matured enough to be dad when they were born. That's what caused him to panic and leave, but as he and the kids got older he realised that was a bad move, especially after Luka was akumatized. He should have stayed and at least tried. So now, he was trying his best to make up for it. In between concerts and meetings with other artists he was gate crashing the boat and picking up the kids.

Their mother didn't mind, while she was still a bit salty at the man for that he did, she knew that co-parenting was what the kids needed and she was glad he was actively trying.

Jagged grabbed Lukas ankles and dragged, trying to drag him out of bed. Luka grabbed the headboard and couldn't help but laugh at the attempts to get him up.

"Noooo! My sweet beauty sleep!" He joked.

"You don't need beauty sleep! You're my kid you got my genes!" Jagged joked back.

"Ok! Ok! Let me get ready and I'll be on the deck"

"Aright, don't take a million years though"

Leaving to let Luka get ready, the overtired teenager rolled out of bed and managed to wake himself up a bit more as he dug out an outfit and piled everything he needed into his bag. Up on the deck his dad was talking to Jueleka about scheduling a father daughter day too, as she was off to Rose's place today and couldn't tag along with her brother. So Jagged figured hey, individual days. They may be twins but they are their own people.

Before heading out, Luka checked his phone for any notifications from his friends that had come through while he was sleeping in. A few messages in the band group chat about the next practice, some likes on an Instagram post, nothing too special. Although one did catch his attention, a message from Adrien.

Adri: hey, I have this boring ass fashion event to go to next week. Nathalie managed to convince my dad to let me bring a friend, wanna come? It's mainly adults talking business crap but we can mess around away from that boring stuff. It ends late, so you can sleep over afterwards if you want. No idea how Nathalie managed to make this happen but like hell I'm passing up that chance.

No way, Adrien actually allowed to have a sleepover? That was a first. As if Luka was going to miss this.

He headed up to the deck where the rest of his family was, finding his mum was doing some work on the boat cleaning all the cabin windows.

"Hey kiddo, ready to go?" Jagged asked.

"One second, gotta ask mum something" he replied.

"What about me?" Anarka jumped in.

"Next week Adrien is going to this boring fashion event, somehow managed to get permission to bring a friend so he's not bored out of his mind and asked me. It ends late so I'd sleep over that night, can I go?" Luka asked.

His mother seemed surprised, as was he to hear the boy with the worlds strictest dad was actually allowed to have a friend over.

"Damn, he must have sweet talked real good for that to happen. Sure, go ahead. Although if his dad is an asshole you put him in his place kid" Anarka replied.

"Oh I wish I could get the chance to tell that man to fuck off, thanks mum" Luka replied.

Quickly replying to Adrien that he could come over, he was now ready to go off with his dad for the day. Saying bye to his mum and sister for the time being and getting into the passenger seat of his dads pimped out car, he was not surprised at all it was custom painted to fit the rock star aesthetic and had several crocodile figures on the dashboard.

"Right you haven't eaten all day yet, so food first. Anything in particular?" Jagged asked.

"For some reason I've been thinking about sushi for the past week, really want some" Luka replied.

"Ah, I know just the place. Little far off but so worth it. Then I'm taking you to this vintage record shop I found the other week, they got looooaadddsss of good shit"

Now that Luka was pleased with, he'd been looking for a few older records that were harder to get, so hopefully a vintage shop would have them. He heard his phone ping, and took a look at the message.

Adri: Awesome! I've never had a proper sleepover before. I mean my cousin doesn't really count since we're family huh? So this will be fun! We can watch a movie and play video games all night, bring whatever ones you want I have the consoles for it :)

Luka couldn't help but smile, Adrien was so cute signing off his messages with old school Kaomojis. And wow, never had a proper sleepover before? He knew Adrien was a sheltered kid but damn. Didn't he at least have some with Chloe as a kid? Their parents were close after all. Maybe that never happened because Chloe is a girl and it's not unusual for parents to ban mixed gender sleepovers. Even at that young age.

"So what's happened with school recently? Still boring?" Jagged asked.

"As always. Although we did protest a new dress code rule by having all the boys wear skirts and all the girls wear suits" Luka replied.

"Fuck yeah, stick it to the sexist old people. Bet Juels had a fun time giving you a makeover"

"When I walked into her room and asked for a skirt she laughed first, then went through her whole closet then told me I had to wear that skirt with specific shoes and socks or it wouldn't look right"

"Trust her man, she knows how to style goth girl shit"

"Oh yeah totally, she's the reason I looked better than everyone else that day" Luka snickered.

Pretty much the whole family was some shade of alternative, they all knew their way around darker fashion. But while Luka fell more under that one 2014 tumblr grunge style, his sister was a classic goth. So he was going to listen to her fashion advice for wearing a goth skirt right. And hey, it looked great. Maybe he should wear skirts more often.

"And hey, what's going on with Marinette recently? You seem happier now, gotten over the heartbreak?" Jagged asked.

"Yeah, we agreed to just stay friends. Looking my back it was definitely evident from the beginning we were just better as friends. No hard feelings, we're chill now... although something has come up..." Luka explained.

"Ooo who's the girl?"

Luka was silent a moment, glancing over at his dad. It wasn't often he saw Jaggrd de-rock starred. He looked a lot more dad like without the liberty spikes and sparkles. Jagged narrowed his eyes at Lukas silence for a moment, and then he caught on.

"Ooohhhh, I see, I see. Who's the boy then?" He smirked.

Oh good, he understood. Although Luka wasn't that worried about it, he was a rock star after all. That scene was known for its queer undertones. Plus, his sister literally had a girlfriend and neither of his parents cared.

"That's the thing... it's the same boy Marinette has a crush on. Adrien" Luka sighed.

"THE AGRESTE KID? Damn you're pulling models out here? You've got game kiddo" Jagged replied.

"I won't be pulling anyone if I don't figure out what to do. I mean I still care for Mari, I don't want to hurt her. But at the same time I can't just... not be in love with Adrien"

"Kid, at the end of the day it's his choice. He might reject Mari, he might reject you. It doesn't matter if you or Mari go for him because it's his decision. She's a big girl, she knows that. She knows she can't control him and if you kiss him and he kisses back then there's nothing she can do about it. Who knows maybe he's just straight up gay and Mari doesn't have a chance anyway?! Point is, just try. The worst that can happen is rejects both of you and then you can just both work through that together. At the end of the day even if you both go for him, and it makes things awkward for a bit, it's Adrien's choice. She'll understand that"

Damn, for someone who's vocabulary was 90% 'that's rock and roll dude' he actually had some pretty good advice.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Juels says I need to do something for myself for once and stop being such a people pleaser too..." Luka said.

"She's right, see we share that family wisdom man. That's why we're so eloquently spoken" Jagged replied.

"Eloquently spoken? Says the man who ends every sentence with dude"

"Ay, dude is a universal word. Don't diss the dude, dude"

Like snickered, despite the language of a man who runs exclusively on vibes and energy drinks he had some good points. Maybe that's where Luka got his constant state of calm from, his dads 'fuck it, roll with the punches' attitude.

"And hey, didn't you literally just plan a sleepover with him? That sounds like the perfect time to make a move. Just the two of you alone in his bedroom..." Jagged teased.

"Dad-" Luka exclaimed.

"I'm just saying! As long as y'all are safe I won't tell your mother. I know what you teenagers get up to, I was one of you once"

"In the same house as his overbearing dad? I don't think so. Although maybe I can get a kiss in there if things go well"

"Get him dude, you won't know unless you try"

Luka couldn't help but ponder, wondering if he really could swoon Adrien over that sleepover. Maybe he should take his dads advice and just go for it? He was right after all, won't know unless he tried.
