One shots

After Emotion

"My plan had already began to work, before I did anything to engage to it! Did you see the way, Felix and Kagami looked at one another? If he would agree and you would be able to convince Mrs Tsurugi, then your contract would be fulfilled, well kinda. At least she would have the perfect partner for her 'daughter'!", Nathalie beamed at Gabriel, when he groaning sat down on her bed late at night.

"It's quite amazing, how the knowledge about your intelligence being superior over all the others, makes you look radiant!", he complimented her with a loving smile. His overall appearance had worsened and he could hardly keep sitting in a straight position.

"Maybe it's not caused by my superiority but rather by the things you caused inside of me, when we....", she noticed with deeply reddened cheeks.

"My dear Nathalie!", he objected, yet his voice sounded flattered, "that was more than two weeks ago! I can't imagine, that I made you feel 'that' good, that you would still be feeling it!"

"What? Has it been that long ago already? I....sorry, I must have lost track of time with all the planning and scheduling! But....", she scooted a little closer and seductively hummed, "....I can still feel you and everything you made me experience in that night! Maybe, not tonight, I can tell your exhausted, but maybe soon, we could try to have another go?"

He looked at her with wide eyes, but began to smile blissfully.

"I would love that my dear! You really look more healthy, how are you feeling, Nathalie?"

She shrugged but gave him a tender grin.

"Well, except for today with all the preparations for the dance, I have slept quite a lot lately and that seemed to have helped a lot to give me back a bit of my strength. As long as I don't work too much, but it's a start. How's the....?", she pointed at his arm and he just shook his head and opened his blazer and shirt to show her the extent of the cataclysm.

Gasping in shock, she hugged herself tightly, knowing, he would reject her every gesture of comfort until he had covered himself again.

"Come to bed, Gabriel! I want to be close to you as long as.... as long as we both are able to!", the young woman pleaded.

With his head hanging low he wandered into her bathroom and changed into his pyjama, then helped her do the same.

"That's the first time since back in Tibet, that I see you, not wearing a bra under your regular clothes!", he stated. "Not that you would need it though, you're breasts are still as pretty and full as they were back then, maybe even a little more. The many hours of bedrest do you some good. You eventually start to gain some weight again! May I?"

He had bent down and was now starting to caress her areolas with his lips.

"Holy shit, Gabriel, I can tell that you can barely stand. And even though, I like, what you're doing, I must ask you to stop and.....oh God, yes!"

He had sucked strongly now and had made the woman arch her back, before he placed himself on the mattress beside her with a deep and apologetic sigh.

"You were right, I am too exhausted to do anything tonight, but I promise you, to make it up to you!"

"It's okay, you don't have to!", she replied coldly and he noticed something was up and gave her a puzzled look.

"I really am sorry!", Gabriel whispered and with a grunt of pain cupped her cheek.

"I know!", Nathalie spat and turned towards him, tears now brimming her eyes, "sorry, I don't know, what's going on with me today. Just come here, please!"

And then she buried her face into the crook of his neck and wrapped both her arms tightly around his torso, while she pressed herself firmly against his chest and cried herself to sleep.

While she was already snoring and the designer himself was drifting off to sleep, he opened his eyes widely in a sudden realisation, that made him look down at the woman in his arms with all the love left inside of him and he made a final decision.

When he woke up in the morning, he was alone and Nathalie was already in the bathroom. He turned on his back, waiting for her to return. When she didn't, even after almost half an hour, he got worried and got up, stretching his limbs painfully, then gently knocked at the ajar door.

"I'm almost done, Gabriel, just a minute, I...."

He didn't wait for her to finish and opened the door, seeing her kneeling in the middle of the bathroom, the toilet lid still open and the woman blushing rapidly and gazing towards the lever to flush the toilet.

Without hesitation, he closed the lid and flushed whatever she was so ashamed of down the drain, to then kneel before her.

"Why are you on the floor, Nath?"

She averted her gaze to the opposite wall, when she shrugged and muttered:

"Long story, would you mind helping me up?"

He did with a knowing grin and pulled her to her feet to then steady her in his arms.

"Were you planning on telling me at all, Nath?"

The assistant looked puzzled.

"Tell you what exactly?", she wondered.

"Stop that, Nathalie! I can tell, that you have been throwing up right now! So did you even consider to tell me, that you're pregnant or not?"

She paled in an instant and stared at him, then realisation hit her too and she slowly moved her hand to her lower abdomen.

"Oh my God! You could be right!", Nathalie whispered pensively as she softly stroked along the bare skin of her stomach.

Only then Gabriel became aware, that she had had no idea herself until he had hinted towards it and with a blissful smile he bent down and cupped her lips with his own. She gave in, shortly, then pushed him back and ranted:

"Ew, I haven't even rinsed my mouth yet and to be honest, you don't smell very fresh either and are making me sick again, so if you don't mind....!"

Gabriel chuckled and helped her walk to the sink, where she had a stool in place to sit on.

"I'll be right back, darling, let me get you some breakfast!"

"Oh, uhm, if you don't mind, no pancakes please!", she called after him and without thinking anything of it, he obeyed and brought her some toast and eggs instead, being greeted with an exaggerated hug and a couple of wet kisses, which made him smile blissfully.
