Gabriel had wrapped a towel around his waist as soon as she opened the door "good timing" he laughed picking up his ciggerettes and lighter heading for the washroom, it was nice to have a smoke and a bath. he walked in closing the door behind him the tub already being refilled from Ameli's bath *indoor plumbing, haven't seen that since before Sentry* he took his towel off and climbed in the tub of cool water, he shuddered and flipped the switch to heat the water. as it started to warm up he lit a smoke up and dipped a wash cloth in the now hot water flipping off the switch leaning back placing the cloth over his eyes, allowing himself to relax for the first time in weeks. he took a long slow drag blowing it out through his nose letting his worries just fall off of him in the water. he thought of his partner and how she used to look after him when they were in Sentry despite the fact he was older and the boy. he smirked, he was such a little wuss back then crying over everything but that little girl always set him straight, a habit she keeps to this day despite the fact he hadn't cried since the night of their fallen brothers, the last night any of them cried. he sighed finishing off his cig dousing it in the bath water and flicking it in the corner. he washed himself the best he could without the soaps he needed then got out dumping a bucket of warm water over his head he had prepared before getting in to get the excess grim off of him and started drying himself off. he wrapped the towel around his waist again and walked out to see Ameli sleeping, one could say almost peacefully. he noticed their clothes were on his bed *must have brought them in when she was sleeping* he picked up the new pair of jeans and put them on *they'll do for now* he thought to himself placing Ameli's clothes at the foot of her bed then kissed her head "sleep well" he whispered putting his shirt on and his ear rings then walked out of the room to look for possibly another job.
