Nathalie paced across the marble floor of the atelier as she checked off things on her tablet. Suitcases were packed and present in front of her, hotel reservations were made, and disguises were ready, so that no one would recognize them- hopefully. Gabriel suddenly approached her and wrapped his arms around her waist with a smile.

"Are you ready to go?" He asks her, as she looks up to him with a smile.

"You know I am. I already let Adrien know of our whereabouts this weekend. Oh, right. We need to wear disguises. To avoid any awkward looks." She hands him a stack of clothes. He cringed upon inspecting it- a baseball cap, sunglasses, flannel shirt and blue jeans.

"Ugh, how horrid. You chose these of all things?"

She raised an eyebrow. "Oh, don't act like a child, Gabriel. I'm sure you'll look darling in the flannel anyhow. Now go get changed. I will do the same." She pulled out her own disguise outfit- a matching baseball hat, oversized sunglasses, a vintage graphic band tee, ripped jeans and sneakers. Nathalie headed for the nearest restroom, as he remained in the atelier. Once they were changed into their disguises, Nathalie returned to the atelier, her normal attire neatly folded in her arms. Her hair was up in a ponytail as opposed to her bun. Gabriel was rolling up the sleeves of his flannel, pouting.

"I look stupid." He grumbled, looking up at the hat now on his head. She rolled her eyes as she put down her normal clothes and approached him.

"You do not look stupid. Stop pouting, you're a grown man. Now come on, let's go to the airport. The sooner we get there, the sooner we get out of these things." She said sternly, before grabbing her suitcase, purse, and tucking her tablet inside. He sighed as he grabbed his suitcase, and then followed her out the mansion door. Hopefully Adrien can handle the excitement of his bodyguard supervising him for a weekend. Their car pulled around to get them, and they loaded their bags into the trunk. They remained mostly silent in the car- as to avoid giving anything away that this trip was going to be anything but a business affair. Gorilla was giving them a ride- and he said nothing to them either. Once at the airport, and going through bag checks and now patiently waiting at their gate, Gabriel looked over to her.

"You look very attractive in that outfit." He said to her, with a cheeky grin.

She playfully hit his chest. "Oh, stop you. But thank you. You look good in the flannel, like I told you."

"I don't think so, but I'm glad you do." He mumbled. Their attention was caught by a boarding announcement. They stood, and boarded their flight, sitting in first class of course. After two and a half hours of sitting on a plane, they finally landed in Naples, Italy. They realized that they were starving, so upon checking into their suite at the Grand Hotel Vesuvio, they immediately decided to dress up in their nicest outfits and head downstairs to get some dinner, at the Verdi. At dinner, they ordered a bottle of wine to split, as well as probably some of the best Italian food they've ever eaten- including dessert. Now both of them sufficiently fed and liquored, they paid their tab. They exited the restaurant, and walked towards the elevator. He pushed the button to call for the elevator, leaning in to give her a kiss. She immediately accepted it, but not before tilting her head to deepen it already. The elevator doors opened, and they entered, still managing to keep themselves connected to each other. As they began their ascent to the top floor, she backed him to the wall of the elevator, her tongue casually slipping into his mouth. She felt his hands moving to the bottom of her dress, and slowly pulling it up and over her ass. They finally made it to the top floor of the elevator, and they stopped their kissing for now.
