Kira sat on the couch with Gabriel, finally getting to eat the chocolate cake she'd asked for. "Figures you'd have freaking swiss chocolate cake," she muttered, eating more of the amazing cake. She laughed at herself again, trying to figure out why the hell she was on an archangel's couch eating his foreign chocolate cake.
He smirks at Kira reading her thoughts. Of course he would never tell. That would require for him to open up and tell the truth about something for once to a woman. "Hey, Kira?" Gabriel asked looking into her teal eyes. His fingers weaved through her silky, black hair.
Kira felt her cheeks turn a bright red, redder than the color Catt had dyed her hair years ago. She set the cake down on the table with a small, sheepish smile. She, of course, thought she knew what he was trying to do, but she tried not to jump to conclusions for her own benefit. "Yeah, Gabriel?" she replied.
Something in his chest skipped. "First of all," he started, "you and only you can call me Gabe. Second of all, are you single?" he asked taking a bold move. She scooted closer to him. Her cherry lip gloss could be smelled, she was so close. "I'd take this as a yes," Gabriel chuckled and kissed her lips softly.
She pulled back,turning even redder. She looked away embarrassed. "I, uhh, I've never actually been not single," she admitted quietly, hoping she wouldn't be heard, but she knew she could. She looked back up at Gabriel's face still embarrassed. It wasn't easy for her to say that she, a twenty-two year old woman on her own, couldn't manage to get a guy.
With a small smile, Gabriel pushed Kira's hair behind her ear, tucking it there neatly. "Maybe, we can change that, Kira," Gabriel told her, loosening his shoulders. "Come here," Gabriel pulled her chin towards him. His lips met hers again. She loosened up quite a bit. "I'm sorry," Gabriel said breaking it up, "That was rude of me."
Kira smiled and shook her head. "You know, I haven't even known you a whole freaking day yet, but what I do know, is that you probably don't care in the least bit," she remarked, giving him his own signature smirk.
"You know, I haven't known you for a whole day yet, and I happen to know that you do care. I also know your birthday, full name, and part of your back story," Gabriel shot back smirking back. "I like that look on you, by the way," he threw in.
Laughing, Kira shook her head. "Cause that's not creepy at all. considering you'd be the biggest pedophile on Earth if you told that to anyone else that. And, personally, I'd say yours could use some work," she taunted him. "But, lucky for you, I'm not mean enough to." She kissed his cheek smirking happily at him.
Gabriel laughs, "Well, thank you for being so super polite towards me." He smiled, a real genuine smile. "You know we should really do this again sometime, but maybe next time it can be in a real restaurant with real food and waiters and stuff," Gabriel offered up a second date right away.
Kira smiled and him and nodded. "You know what, I'd really like that," she tells him happily. "Gotta say," she looks over at the plate that had the chocolate cake she'd finished on it, "I'll miss that amazing cake." She smiled brighter at Gabriel.
Gabriel laughed aloud, "It was store bought cake. I really don't see why you love it so much. I mean I love it an awful lot, but that's just because I'm fat." Gabriel looks down at his small rounded stomach. "Nah, I'm not fat, just need to exorcise a little more and eat a little less, I suppose."
"No, you look perfectly fine the way you are, and I guess you're not the only one with a trickster's sweet tooth," she told him, poking his non-fat stomach. "Yeah, I like you like this." Kira smiled at him and hesitated before kissing him on the lips quickly.
Gabriel smiled and said, "You're getting the hang of it. Do you want me to flash you home or what?" he asked politely. He smiled at her and gave her another quick kiss on the lips. It put broad smiles on both of their faces.
Kira nodded, knowing there was probably a light blush on her face. "If it's not too much trouble, then sure," she replied. "I live in an apartment on the other side of town." She stood up with him, still smiling.
"Hang on," Gabriel warned. Suddenly, they were outside of Kira's apartment door. "Well, I don't know about you, but other than the dead bodies, trying to get Catt and Crowley out of my apartment, and you getting stabbed earlier, it's been a pretty good day."
Kira smiled and nodded in agreement. "Yeah, it really was. Thank you, Gabe, for everything," told smiled at the archangel in front of her. She pulled her apartment keys out of her pocket. "I guess I'll see you around. Stop by anytime you want to." She unlocked her apartment door, and, before she forgot, kissed Gabriel on the lips to tell him goodbye.
Gabriel smiled to himself and turned and left. When Kira turned the doorknob to her apartment, she heard noises on the other side. "Hello?" she asked as she steps in the door. "Is anyone there?"
She looked around worried for a second. She took her jacket off and set it on the chair next to her. Still looking around cautiously, she grabbed a baseball bat from the closet and held it up protectively. She heard more noises from the back of the apartment.
"Who's there?" she called out.
Suddenly, Catt comes running out of the back bedroom with a superhero cape and a mask on. "Kira! You'll never believe what happened to me today? Well, I bet you had an eventful day, too. I want to hear allll about it," Catt says slurring her speech just a little bit.
Kira put her hands on her hips with a slight frown and disappointed look. "What, you got kidnapped by the Joker and saved by Batman?" she guessed sarcastically. "Wait, nevermind, even the Joker would bring you back immediately. And yes, yes I did have an eventful day."
Catt takes Kira's soft hand and pulls her to the couch. "Now spill the beans, Kira," Catt demands forcefully. The smell of alcohol drifted through the air with the epicenter being Catt. She smiled wobbly and said, "Kira, I neeed to know."
Kira sighed and took her friends mask and cape off. "Well, Gabriel and I had some cake and we had a nice talk after you, Crowley, and I beat the crap out of some demons. Now come on, you need to sleep," Kira told her friend, obviously not going to tell the truth and risk having an over dramatic, drunk Catt. She pulled Catt to her feet and took her back into the back bedroom.
When Kira came back into the living room, she noticed a vase of flowers with a note attached that says: "To:Kira" on the front and on the back reads, "I'm sorry I got her so drunk. I send my greatest apologies. I will never ever make this mistake again. Not in bloody Hell, will I. She is an absolute mess. Yours truly, Crowley."
Kira laughs quietly at the note and sets it down. "You think you're getting flowers from an archangel that tried to make out with you? Nope, it's the King of Hell apologizing for getting your best friend drunk off her ass," Kira muttered to herself, shaking her head and smiling.
"So, how'd you like the flowers from Crowley?" a man's voice came from the kitchen.
