Hello again. So here it is. Date night part two. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: I don't own nothing but the plot.
After they had finished the first course Gabriel went once again to the kitchen to cook the next course and Kali, having felt she had investigated his livingroom enough for now followed him a minute later.
Walking in she was greeting with an amazing view. Gabriel had his back to her and she had been right those trousers really did show of his ass. (You are almost as bad as him you know that right?) He also had his sleeves rounded up and the butterfly hair clips in his hair. He was singing under his breath as he moved fluidly around the room. Moving quietly Kali made her way to the breakfast bar and sat to watch him create. It had always been one of her favourite pass times. He lost himself so completely when he was cooking that Kali realised that it was one of the few times you would ever see Gabriel with his guard down. And it was something she wanted to see as much as possible.
Gabriel became aware of Kali watching him but he didn't turn, instead he changed the song he was singing to the one direction song he had sung at her in the middle of the street. Yes okay looking back, maybe that hadn't been the greatest of plans but it was a story that he would be telling for years to come, and one he would no doubt tell their children when they were old enough to understand. How he had tried to win their mother back but with music. (You do realise she hasn't agreed to have children with you yet right? or marry you, or even sleep with you. Just saying.)
A peace settled onto the kitchen, even when Gabriel turned to grabbed something out of the fridge and his eyes met Kali's he just winked at her and carried on singing 'what makes you beautiful' to her making her smile. Kali just sat there watching him, well expect for the time she got up to refill both there glasses from the bottle on the side. It really was the most perfect moment.
Once all the food Gabriel had produced had been consumed (and Kali had to admit it was exceptional and totally up to his old standard, even if he hadn't been cooking that sort of thing professionally for the last 15 years he definitely still had the skill.) Gabriel grabbed yet another bottle of wine from the kitchen and they sat together on the couch with Kali having kicked off her shoes and pulling her feet under her while Gabriel sat with his arm around her and pulled her into him.
"I've had a wonderful evening Gabe." Kali said quitely as she rested her head on his shoulder. Gabriel couldn't help himself, he turned and placed a kiss on the top of her head. It was the first time in 15 years she had called him that. Gabe.
"Me too Kali-mine." He replied gently.
At that Kali chuckled and looked up at him with disbelieve in her eyes. "What is it with you and your nicknames for people?"
"My way of showing them I care I guess." He said then corrected himself. "Or irritating the hell out of them if their last name is Winchester."
"And why do you want to irritate the Winchesters?" Kali asked with humour twinkling in her eye.
"Because have to keep Dean-o on his toes. Can't have him becoming complacent now can I? He is my little bros boy toy after all." Gabriel replied with a smirk.
"Okay, I'll give you that." And with that Kali returned her head to his shoulder and silence once again settled around them with the occasional gentle kiss shared between the two. It was the kind of ending you share with your other half at the end of the perfect day with them. (So sweet.)
When the clock on the shelf clicked towards midnight Kali knew she would have to find her way home. There was no way that Gabriel could drive her, but maybe he knew a cab company or something.
"I should head home." She said sitting up properly and pulling away from Gabriel.
"You don't have to go you know." Gabriel replied gently running his hand up and down her back.
"I'm not sleeping with you Gabriel." Kali said turning to give him stern look that was kind of spoilt by the smile on her lips as he spoke.
"Who said anything about sleeping?" Gabriel replied cheekily with a twinkle in his eyes before turning serious once more. "Actually I was thinking you could take my bed and I'll sleep on the couch."
"Oh." Was all Kali could say to that. She was happy that he was respecting her wish to take it slowly, but there was also a small part of her that was a little disappointed that he wasn't pushing her to sleep with. To be honest it really wouldn't take much, one kiss like they had shared at the beginning of the evening and she would be his. But he wasn't doing it. He was showing how much he cared by letting her set the pace. And that did make her love him just that little bit more. "Thank you. I would like that." She finally finished with a smile for the man next to her. (Ah yes, he is a good man isn't he?)
"So would I." Gabriel nodded and pulled himself up off of the couch and held out his hand to Kali and then led her to his room.
Looking round the bedroom as Gabriel got the spare duvet and pillow from the cupboard for himself to use Kali spotted the candles on the bedside tables.
"Expecting company?" She asked with a smirk. Turning Gabriel was puzzled until he saw where she was looking and groaned. He was so going to kill Dean, though at least he had hidden the handcuffs.
"Not my idea." He replied sternly.
"Really then whose was it?" Kali asked intrigued. Who would suggest Gabriel had candles on his bedside table? It wasn't like he had another woman stashed anywhere, unless it was that Pamela person. (Yeah she still doesn't like her.)
"I asked Charlie and Dean to help decorate the place for tonight. So take your pick." Gabriel admitted making Kali sigh in relief. So it wasn't her.
Of course once she had got over that thought she did find it rather amusing that Gabriel had asked his brothers partner and there friend to decorate his place for her this evening and as such she laughed. "Okay I believe you." she said. Hmm it was also kinda sweet.
"Thank you." Gabriel replied graciously with an exaggerated bow towards her which was kind of foiled by the fact his arms were full of duvet.
"Do you have anything I can sleep in?" Kali asked shaking her head at his behaviour. He really was an idiot sometimes, but she loved him for it.
"Sure." And with that Gabriel dropped the duvet and started rooting round in his draw to find a decent t-shirt to lend her. He wanted to make sure that when she was wearing his clothes, she was wearing his favourite.
Once located, he gave her tee and picked up his bedding.
"So I guess this is goodnight then." Gabriel said somewhat wistfully to her. God he wished he was sleeping in here with her, even if all they did was sleep at least he would have her beside him. But not now, not yet. Though hopefully soon.
"Yes I guess so." Kali replied with a similar tone of voice making Gabriel's resolve crumble slightly. As such he quickly leaned over and gave her a gentle but full kiss goodnight.
"Sweet dreams." He whispered against her lips before he swiftly left the room. If he didn't go now he knew he would never leave, and that would probably not go down to well. (Maybe not, but hey you never know.)
Kali smiled as Gabriel closed the door behind him. Oh she would have sweet dreams, and it they happened to be filled with images of a certain chef then so be it. Everyone was allowed to dream. (Oh so very very true.)
