Gabriel had ended up staying at Elle's for the night, calling his mother up to tell her that he was studying at a friends. Of course, what they ended up doing was about as far from studying as they could get. For them, studying was pretty much just a code word for sex at this point. Not that either one of them minded or anything. Far from it

The only thing Elle had looked forward to more on Monday than Gabriel was finally being able to go home for once. He had to go to work, and Elle seized the painful separation to run straight home

Gabriel had been so focused on listening to the watch, trying to get it perfectly in time that he didn't even hear them come in, despite the little door chime ringing to tell him of their arrival.

He looked up from his desk once he finished, smiling at Elle's presence. He liked her visits to his shop now, even if he had once gotten rather angry about them. He took his work glasses over, standing to his feet now to get a better look at the man.

He was snivelling and weak, Gabriel could tell just by looking at Brian. It was kind of disgusting. But he smiled politely, turning to look at Elle once more.

"Is this the gifted one you told me about?"

"Uh huh," she beamed up at him, preening at her own good work. "This is Brian, Gabriel," she said, and rubbed the man's shoulder soothingly. He looked at her nervously, his fingers still twitching, his eyes darting. "Why don't you show Gabriel what you can do?" she proposed, practically giddy. This was such an important moment for Gabriel, and she got to share it with him. "And then he can show you."

Brian nodded. "It's... it's nothing, really."

Elle smiled encouragingly, and slapped his shoulder. "Oh, don't be modest. Show him!"

He hesitated, but stepped forward to the desk, lifting his hand. Some green mug teetered a bit, and then slid a few inches, and Elle clapped, her gaze shining as she hungrily looked to Gabriel. Would he like it?

Gabriel watched in fascination as he urged the mug closer to them. His eyes went dark and hungry. He wanted to do that. "That's wonderful," He gasped softly.

Brian shook his head nervously. "No, it's horrible."

"How could you say that?"

"I could hurt someone," Brian insisted stubbornly. "I don't want it. She said you could take it away from me."

Gabriel thought for a moment, carefully, grasping the thing of Crystals he kept on his desk. "You're broken."

"What?" Brian looked confused.

Gabriel just smirked hollowly, making his way towards the man. "Don't worry Brian, I can fix it." And with that he sent the thing of crystals smashing down into the back of Brian's head, causing the man to fall down to the ground in a heap.

The ticking was so loud in Gabriel's ears now he couldn't hear anything else.
