Gabriel Agreste and Nathalie Sancoeur were attending a Christmas party at a friend's house. As they mingled with the other guests, they found themselves standing under a sprig of mistletoe.

Gabriel looked at Nathalie and smiled mischievously. "You know what they say about mistletoe, Nathalie."

Nathalie blushed and looked down at her feet. "Yes, I know, Gabriel. But we're just a boss and assistant, right?"

Gabriel took her hand and looked into her eyes. "I don't want to be just co-workers, Nathalie, I see you more than an assistant perhaps more than a friend. I want to be more than that."

Nathalie's heart skipped a beat. She had always had feelings for Gabriel but had never dared to act on them. "What are you saying, Gabriel?"

Gabriel reached up and gently lifted Nathalie's chin, bringing her face closer to his. "I'm saying that I love you, Nathalie. And I want to kiss you. Can I?"

Nathalie's heart raced she nodded slightly since she was practically a blushing mess as Gabriel leaned in and pressed his lips to hers. It was a soft, gentle kiss, filled with all the love and tenderness they had been holding back for so long.

As they pulled away, Nathalie smiled up at Gabriel."I love you, Nathalie. I love you too Gabriel, and I think I'm ready for more mistletoe kisses."

Gabriel grinned and took her hand. "Then let's go find some more mistletoe." And with that, they walked off, hand in hand, ready to share their love under the mistletoe.
