What is the harm of excitement?

14

That night once Nathalie had driven home, Gabriel felt alone.

He hadn't felt like this in years, he felt truly and utterly alone, he didn't know what to do with himself.

He had designed,he had taken a boiling hot shower, he even read a book, but nothing seemed to be working.

He was sitting in the middle of his bed staring at the wall.

Should he call Nathalie?

Would she be asleep now?

Would she be angry if he called her?

Was he being too clingy?

He had so many questions but he couldn't seem to answer them

He was too indecisive.

He thought about transforming and going for a walk, but it was too cold for that and the roofs were icy.

He needed to do something.

So he decided to walk downstairs to the kitchen and grab a snack.

He walked down through the dark empty hallways listening to the sounds of his feet passing along the freezing cold tiles.

When he arrived in the kitchen he wished he had Nathalie there with him.

Late nights in the kitchen with her were something else.

They would always seem to get into deep meaningful conversations whenever they were in the kitchen at 3 am and they would always be able to add a bit of flirtatious talking and banter within the mix, which made Gabriel fall harder and harder for her.

Once he had grabbed a slice of toast and an apple he made his way back upstairs.

He switched on the television in his room and began flicking through every single one of the channels in hope of finding something.

His thumb was starting to get tired with all the flipping, so he decided to sit on some random channel that just helped to fill out the quiet background noise

It was nearly 5 am after he had finished eating his apple and staring absentmindedly at the television screen  until he began to feel a bit of a headache.

He was feeling someone's emotions.

Even though he never used the miraculous or wore it, he could still feel little slivers of emotion.

Every so often if the emotions were extremely high he would sometimes get a headache.

But it hardly ever happened, but when it did it really did feel uncomfortable.

His headache was beginning to feel as if someone had taken a needle and threaded it through his head, it was becoming unbearable.

If he was still trying to get emilie back this would have been the strongest Akuma yet.

He couldn't deal with this pain anymore. He zoned in to find out who this person was and what was so bad.

After a while of trying to find out who it was, he found them.

His headache stopped, his breath hitched and his heart began to race.

It was Nathalie.

Her emotions where running wild, it felt like she was definitely in distress.

He couldn't bare the thought of her suffering in any sort of way.

He transformed and ran out onto the icy rooftops making sure as to not slip and fall.
