Eventually, Nathalie descended down the stairwell and hesitantly approached the door of the dining room. It was cracked open and a thin stream of light poured out. She knocked gently on the door.

"Come in," He stood from his seat and walked around the table
She pushed the door open and entered. The room had a magical glow to it that it never seemed to have had before. "Gabriel…" she breathed, her eyes drinking it all in.
"It's not too much?" He asked a relieved smile appeared on his face. He guided her to a chair and sat her down
"No, it's beautiful," she told him softly.
"nothing compared to you." He said, taking her in for the first time. "You look beautiful, except there's one problem."
She blushed. "What is it?"
He walked over to her and gently took out the Bobby pins that were holding her hair up, letting the hair flow down to her shoulders "much better." He smiled and went back to his seat
She blushed harder and brushed a piece of her hair behind her ear.
He smiled at her and placed a plate in front of her "let me know what you think, i don't cook often."
She smiled in return and took a bit. "It's very good!" she enthused genuinely.
"really?"he took a bite and smiled "not bad."
Nathalie ate quickly and politely, looking up at Gabriel every couple moments.
He continued to eat as well. When he finished he took both there plates and brought them to the kitchen. He brought out some dessert "I didn't make this"
"Are you going to need any help with the dishes after?" she asked instinctively, nibbling on her dessert.
"Sure if you'd like to help, like it?" he asked, smiling as he saw that her expression answered before her words could
"Yes," she replied. "I would like to help. And it's amazing."
"Good, you dry, I wash" He walked into the kitchen and turned on some music as he worked.
Nathalie followed him and, in her delicate evening gown, prepared to do the dishes.
He handed her some and continued to wash the rest "sorry for having you do this in the dress." he said apologetically. After a while, he started to hum to the song
"I don't mind. I've… certainly experience stranger things than this," she remarked.
he raised an eyebrow "weirder than doing the dishes in a designer dress? really?"
She felt her steady blush returning. "Yes…"
"do tell my love, do tell" He said with a small smile
"Well, kissing my boss is definitely on the list," she muttered, half to herself.
He chuckled "yes that would be up there." He said as he passed her a dish
The dish nearly slipped through her fingers at his remark, and she cursed herself for being so foolish.
"last one." He handed her the dish and dried his hands, leaning against the counter and facing her
She dried it and put it away before slowly turning to face him.
He shook his head and smiled before pulling her into his arms and holding her tight against him
