Gabriel quietly entered the small sanctuary. He had just barely escaped the guards of the abbey; he needed somewhere nice and quiet to think about his dreams. It was a shabby old building, the church, but rather cozy. He scanned the pews for a secluded place.
But instead he found a familiar face staring down to the front of the empty sanctuary. He set his jaw, watching her for a moment. He coughed do get her attention.
She jumped and turned her green eyes to him. She had a look of surprise all over her face, and slight shame, of being caught perhaps? But it didn't matter to Gabriel. He gestured towards the seat.
She looked down at it a bit confused.
"The seat" he almost laughed "Is it taken?"
She smiled sheepishly. "No"
He slid in next to her, catching a side ways glance at her face.
She was looking up at the cross at the head of the sanctuary, with a statue Christ's arms spread out across it.
He looked up at it too, it wasn't scary like you would think, but more of a warm comforting feeling to have that statue look over you.
"Do you ever have dreams?"
Gabriel paused before answering the question. "Yeah…Why do you ask?"
"What kind of dreams do you have?" she asked.
He looked at her. "I have ones where I see you…but it seems…real…and a long time ago." He stared at her.
"We're on a battle field, or in a house…" she said piercing his eyes with her own.
"So you see the same things I do?" he asked.
"I guess…"
"Halo?"
She looked up at him, her eyes scanning his face. "Gabriel?"
He grinned. "So if that's who we are, then did those things happen? Were we…?"
She shrugged, "I dunno…" she stared ahead. "But, if you wanted to be that way now…"
He just sat for a moment turning this thought over in his head.
"I just think, if we were to start anything, I would want Gods blessing first." He heard her say quietly.
He looked over at her; she was looking at him. He leaned down and kissed her. He turned a bit in his seat and cupped her face gently. Her lips tasted of a sweet wine, probably from dinner he thought smiling in the kiss.
He leaned back to look at her. She looked surprised.
"Well he didn't strike us down…" he grinned.
She looked down smiling.
He used his thumb to hook her chin and lift it. Her green eyes sparkled in delight.
With that he kissed her again.
