“Mister Gabriel!” Natalie hopped up and went running to him as Frankie finished tossing out the rest of the wrapping paper that the little girl destroyed. “Wow!! Thank you!” She chirped while hugging him around the waist. Stepping forward then, Frankie looked at the box and tilts her head, “What’s this?”
Gabriel smiled and tried to shrug off the nervous energy he felt. “Well, you know me,” he said with a breath of a laugh. “Couldn’t find anything that could really fit, so I figured my gift would just be, well... me, I guess.” He opened up the box to show her the simple silver ring which was inside. He’d been holding onto it for a couple years, worried that he wasn’t enough for her. But after all that had happened, he felt it was time to make that leap. He wanted to be there, for her and Nat. It just felt right.
“I mean... If you’ll have me.” Given, he wasn’t too sure about her feelings on the matter.
