I didn’t see Gabriel for the next few days but I didn’t care. I barely even thought about him, being completely occupied by the new portrait I had begun painting It took me one full day of sitting in front of the blank canvas before inspiration finally struck and then it kept me busy

I didn’t miss the way the butterflies rose again at his slight touch either, or the way I was left craving and dreaming about more the entire ride to the gala
