You were beautiful. Absolutely stunning, Gabriel wasn't even sure how a wonderful sight such as yourself was even capable of not being an angel.

He knew it wasn't going to last, knew he would outlast you by aeons, but Lord if he wasn't going to find love anywhere else, why sit and dismiss his feelings?

So he integrated himself into your school. As a fellow student, he was supposed to be some new transfer from.. Some random country. All in hopes of sitting next to you.

And yet it had worked. You started talking to him, he talked back.. And he just fell harder into love.

"Placet auditu tuo loqui," Gabriel murmured one day while you two were at lunch, knowing for a fact he would never say it in a language you could understand. He was simply too chicken. But God, if he surpressed these feelings any longer he would implode.
