Gabriela couldn't sleep that night

Gabriela couldn't sleep that night. She was tossing and turning all night long.

There was just too much on her mind. First thing was her brother. She was loosing her mind not knowing what had happened at the trial, she didn't know whether he was alive or ripped apart by the vampires, while Eric was just standing there with that stupid smirk on his face, that Gabriela wanted to smack away.

The second thing was the killer. He almost killed her Protected last night and if Gabriela wasn't there he might have succeeded.

The killer was now after Sookie, and Gabriela was very concerned about her Protected.

With so much problems in her life, she's afraid she might not been able to keep her safe.

With much difficulty Gabriela walked into the kitchen the next morning, she was looking like a zombie.

Sam and Sookie were already having breakfast, when the Nephilim walked in and both of them looked towards her.

"Morning Gabi." Sookie greeted her with a smile.

"Coffee." Was the only thing the Nephilim said, as she walked towards the coffee machine. She grabbed the biggest cup from the cupboard and poured herself a coffee.

"Damn, that's a lot of coffee Gabi." Sam commented with a chuckle.

Gabriela only glared at him, as she took a sip from her coffee and leaned against the kitchen counter.

"Gabi you okay?" Sookie asked her best friend with a frown.

Gabriela sighed and shook her head as she run her fingers through her long black hair "I haven't been sleeping for the past days." She then walked towards them and sit next to Sookie.

Sookie looked at the Nephilim with sad eyes "Angelo."

Gabriela looked at her sadly and nodded her head "It's been days." She mumbled sadly and looked down at her cup "What if he really is dead?"

"Hey-" Sam put his hand on her shoulder in a friendly manner "-Angelo is a tough son of a bitch. You know that. Maybe he just can't call you back right now."

"He didn't went to fight with vampires, Sam!" Gabriela snapped in irritation "He was on a trial, for killing a vampire, in front of the Sheriff, for saving me!" She pointed at herself "And those dead fuckers have laws Sam. And me and Angelo are the last Nephilims that left. The vampires slaughtered my kind, just because there was some kind of a legend about me thousands of years ago." Gabriela rambled madly at him "And Eric would never save my brother, Bill would try, but not Eric! And now the fucker is not answering my texts and it's so frustrating!"

Gabriela placed her head in her hands in stress.

Sookie's eyes were filled with sadness for the Nephilim. She knew how much Gabriela loved her brother, just as much as she loves Jason, but with Angelo and Gabriela is different. They had a special bond, like no other.
