Gabenath Christmas Special

DECEMBER 29

-Father, can I go play outside? - asked Adrien during breakfast. 
-Sure, just please, wear your jacket and…
-Gloves, hat, scarf - I know he interrupted his father. 
Gabriel smiled. 
-Then yes. 
-Thanks. I am finished. I will go get ready - he said rushing out of the kitchen. 
Nathalie smiled at how close Adrien and Gabriel had become during this vacations.
-A penny for your thoughts - said Gabriel putting his arms around her. 
-Just a penny? - she asked smiling. 
Gabriel laughed and kissed her cheek. 
-I am thinking about how your relationship with him has improved. 
-All thanks to you, without you this trip would have never happened. 
Nathalie kissed his lips. He kissed her back. He pressed his forehead against hers. 
-I have improved so much, my humor, my designs, my thoughts, my relationship with my son, everything has improved thanks to you - he continued. 
-I only want you to be happy - said Nathalie looking straight into his eyes. 
-You make me incredibly happy - he answered - I want to be with you. 
-You are. 
-Forever. 
Nathalie froze. 
-And… Emilie?
Gabriel looked away. 
-I don’t know. 
Nathalie bit her lower lip. 
-I need to think about what I will do - he continued. 
She tried to keep up with him and not break into tears. 
-What about… 
-I’m ready - yelled Adrien entering the kitchen again. -Oh, please continue. 
They soon realized they were still in each other’s arms. They let go of their embrace. Adrien smiled at their attempt to look normal. 
-Suuuuuure - he said -Ok, I will go out - he said walking out of the kitchen aga, smiling this time. 
“DORKS!” he thought.
-Shit - whispered Nathalie. 
-He will find out eventually.
Nathalie looked at him with intrigue. 
-About us - he answered. 
Nathalie almost choked. So there was an us. She smiled. 
-Wanna go to the sofa, or to the bedroom? - she asked naughtily. 
-You don’t have to ask twice - said Gabriel picking her up and taking her upstairs. 

-I simply love this - said Gabriel, caressing Nathalie’s naked back. 
She was lying next to him, her head over his chest, their sweaty, naked bodies curled up. 
-I am sleeping with my boss - she laughed. 
-Uh, that’s naughty, but extremely hot - he said. 
-I know - she whispered kissing his lips. 
-What are we going to do - she asked suddenly. 
-What about?
-If Noah does know about the miraculous. 
Gabriel sighed and stared at the ceiling. 
-I don’t know, Nat. Emilie barely spoke about her friendship with Noah, so I have no idea. 
-Next time Hawkmoth and Mayura strike we should try to find out more. 
Gabriel closed his eyes. He wasn’t sure he wanted to continue as Hawkmoth and Mayura. Even with the peacock miraculous fixed. He wasn’t going to risk her. He didn’t want to risk this all. 
-Gabriel? - she asked. 
-Yes? - he said looking at her. 
-What are you thinking?
-Nothing - he said kissing her.
