-Agreste Mansion-
-10:20pm-
They all returned home from the restaurant about twenty minutes ago, now Nathalie is in the comforts of her bathroom and every since she stepped in the shower, she has been thinking about the moment between her and Gabriel earlier. When she danced to the slow music with him, the way he dipped her down and kissed her three times on her forehead, the way those grey eyes he has looked at her, and when he complimented her.....
But on top of all of that, she has been thinking deeply about what she heard him tell her.
His breathy, "I love you" to her...
Yes, she heard. She heard him.
It wasn't clear what Gabriel said, he said it with loud breathing, that is why Nathalie isn't a hundred percent sure if that's what he truly said. It might have been something else that sounded like "I love you" but wasn't actually that. If she really wanted to know what he really said, then she would have to ask Gabriel, which she, of course, doesn't want to do.
She just doesn't think that's what he said, though that was what she heard. Perhaps she was hearing things, or maybe that is what she wanted to hear from him?
One thing is certain. It's messing her up, leaving her with so many questions for not only him but for herself as well.
Nathalie took a long breath, trying to clear her head from all her thoughts, before turning off the shower and stepping out. She hurriedly changed into her pyjamas, she went to her book shelf and looked for the book filled with bedtime stories. The books were Adrien's... When he was younger, Nathalie would always be the one reading him a bed time story until he fell asleep. Nathalie decided to keep one of the books, knowing one day she would also be reading a bedtime tale to her own children.
Nathalie slid on the bed between Gabriella and Blaire, who has been waiting for Nathalie to read them a bedtime tale before they went to bed.
"So, are we ready to hear a story?" Nathalie asks, looking at the two.
"Yes were ready!" Gabriella exclaims, wrapping her arms around Nathalie waist.
Nathalie smiled and opened the book, proceeding to read.
Not even fifteen minutes later, Gabby and Blaire were already fast asleep. Nathalie closed the book and looked at the door, she saw Lucy and her brother standing there.
"We just came to get Blaire...Seems like she's asleep," Nathaniel says looking at his daughter.
"Blaire must have been very tired from the dancing she and Gabby did earlier," Nathalie smiled.
Nathaniel nodded as he neared his daughter's side of the bed. He carefully picked Blaire up, and looked at Nathalie, "Thank you," he whispered before he walked back to his wife. Nathaniel gave Blaire to Lucy and she gave him a nod, "Just simply ask her if she would like to have tea with you... You can do it, honey," Lucy whispers to him.
Nathaniel starred at her before he turned to Nathalie, "Nathalie... Would you like to have tea with me, downstairs?" he asks. Lucy took in opportunity to leave them alone and go back to the guest bedroom.
Nathalie starred at him, "Sure," she answers before she got up from the bed, leading the way downstairs to the kitchen.
"Do you want Chamomile tea? It's caffeine free. It will help you sleep better," Nathalie says as she fills the tea kettle with water.
"Sounds good. I also wanted to talk to you"
Nathalie looked at him, "About?"
"Um... Is it okay if I tell you once we have our teas and were sitting down?" Nathaniel smiled awkwardly, and Nathalie merely nodded.
