Today's the day of the gala, and I still haven't asked Gabriel whether or not I'm going.
"Nathalie?"
Gabriel's voice brings me out of my thoughts.
"Yes sir?"
"Do you have anything to wear to the gala yet?"
"No, I didn't think that I would be going, to be honest."
"Why wouldn't you be going? You did help me plan it after all."
"That's true, I just thought that Emilie wouldn't want me there."
"Well, Emilie isn't here, and she hasn't been for the past couple of days, so her opinion is no longer valid."
"I suppose your right about that, but it still doesn't change the fact that I have nothing to wear."
"I'm sure we could find something, we still have a couple of hours after all."
"Which means I should probably go find something and start getting ready."
I say with a sigh. He smirks.
"If you insist, do you want me to find you something?"
"I suppose that would be best."
"Very well then, I'll see you later."
"Unfortunately."
I say with a smirk and leave the room, leaving him gaping.
"Nathalie!?"
I simply laugh.

*A couple of hours later.*

I finally finish getting ready, and leave the bathroom, to find a beautiful purple and black dress

(Sorry, I didn't know what to do for her dress😅)
I look at my reflection in shock.
"Well, it's not what I'd choose, but oh well."
And with that I leave the safety of my room and go downstairs to where I know both Gabriel and Adrien are waiting for me.
"Wow Nathalie, you look amazing!"
Adrien says, clearly happy to be going with us.
"Thank you Adrien, I must say you don't look too bad yourself."
"We have to leave, or were going to be late."
Gabriel says, sounding slightly annoyed, at what I have no idea.
"Of course, we wouldn't want you to be late to your own gala after all."
There was the slightest hint of sarcasm to my tone, which I'm pretty sure both Agreste's heard.
"Whatever, let's just go."
And with that we're off, arriving at the gala just barely on time.
