Christina took a deep breath and looked up at her new school. So this is it...This is where my life is now. She frowned and absently twirled a strand of her hair. It was a nervous habit that she'd had ever since childhood. Mystic Falls High School loomed before Christina, pulling that unsettling feeling back into the pit of her stomach. She murmured something and shifted her books to one arm, lifting up a vial of meliuth serum to settle her nerves. While she had fit in at her old academy, this school was much larger, and she had no ideas whatsoever about the student body. My nerves have never acted up this much before....why now? Christina rubbed her palm against her jeans, not having moved from her spot in front of MFHS.

Gabriel was making his way to school again. How he loathed it so. It wasn't so much that he thought allot of the material was easy or boring it was the fact that he should have graduated by now and be traveling the world fulfilling his dream. But his parent just had to move while he was in the middle of a grade thus making him have to retake that entire year of school all over again at MFHS. Though Gabriel never truly let it put him down. Gabriel took notice of something out of place, different, unfamiliar in the scene before him. A girl, a beautiful girl, and a girl he didn't know. The fact that he had no idea who she was said allot on its own but her fiddling with her hair in the manner she was standing and behaving depicted signs of nerves. Gabriel casually made his way up to her changing his course from coming from behind her to a angle more towards her side so not to startle or surprise her.
Gabriel was wearing his usual stylishly torn jeans and worn out timberland boots with a simple dark grey t-shirt. Gabriel allowed for a decent distance between them before announcing his presence so not to wait until to was right there next to her once again to prevent catching her off gaurd and startling her since she was already nervous as it was. His voice was clear but pleasant easily understood yet almost soothing to listen to, a welcoming tone noticeably shown "Excuseme miss." Gabriel said presenting his presence to her then arriving but a few feet above her he smiled in a friendly manner and continued "You must be new, and don't worry the answer is no, it isn't that obvious. I simply happen to be very observant and the fact that I know pretty much everyone in this school but you, you I have never seen before. And believe me I would remember you. I am Gabriel, Gabriel Nikopol and its a pleasure to meet you." Gabriel said keeping things simple no further gestures or extension of the hand for a handshake to make her feel uncomfortable or obligated to do anything. His goal was to make her transition into the school one with great ease not harder.

Christina had just been digging into her bag for her schedule and map when she heard a definitively masculine voice a few feet away from her, crashing through her reverie and triggering an auto response- she let go of her things which stayed in midair, her body tensing. After a moment she slowly straightened up and took hold of her possessions once more. Christina smiled shyly and dipped her head in acknowledgement. "I'm Christina. And, yes, I am new." Her shy grin took a sultry undertone as she watched him with her piercing hazel eyes. "Can you please tell me why it is you "definitely would have remembered me?" Christina tilted her head, watching him as she sipped on her coffee.

Gabriels eyes watched carefully to the reaction of this new student. He watched as her things floated in front of her as a response to his approach. It wasn't what he was going for but it was qutie interesting to him. "Thats quite the trick you have there Christina." Gabriel said curiosity filling his eyes as he watched her regain control of her things. Smirking devilishly "Why I would definitely remember you eh? Isn't it obvious. Such a remarkable girl such as yourself, with such a facinating gift, and such a beautiful demeanor it is quite self explainatory really. But I am not trying to cross any boundaries here I just wanted to welcome you to the school and perhaps help you with what ever you may need. I know what it is like adjusting to a new school and specifically this one." Gabriel spoke respectfully. There was something that attracted Gabriel to Christina. He searched for the answers, what kind of girl she was, what she was. He knew most of these answers or had an idea so why was he still drawn to her. Usually after finding the answers he was looking for the subject of interest became boring and he moved on to the next challenge, mystery, or puzzle. Something was different here though and Gabriel didn't yet understand what it was. He didn't like feeling this way either, he would rather take torture than not be able to figure something out, especially when it partained to how he felt.

Christina's eyes flashed momentarily as she smiled at Gabriel and relaxed. She flashed him a warm, genuine smile and shrugged sheepishly. "Thanks for those compliments....and thank you for being kind enough to want to help me transition into this new life." Christina brushed a lock of hair out of her eyes and nervously glanced toward the school then back at Gabriel. "Yes, I suppose that is quite a "trick" to someone without magic. To me, it's just a second nature defense response." Inside, her heart fluttered at his bold, just right compliments. Like the perfect cup of coffee, she thought dreamily. Christina glanced at her cup of coffee and murmured a word or two, heating up her now cold coffee and taking a sip. She watched Gabriel curiously, noticing a look in his eyes that said there was so much more beneath the surface as he watched her.

Gabriel smiled looking towards the school. "You know you might want to be careful with those abilities of yours. Not everyone here is as understanding of those kind of things. I convinced some students I was a mind reader once, it was quite funny, but it got kinda complicated. I would be more than happy to show you to your class then around the school. I know the perfect place in town where we can go for lunch. You know so you familiarize with the town as well. I can help you with your classes too no doubt since I have probably taken them all already until you get use to everything. And its always nice to eat with someone and not have to sit by yourself cause you don't know anyone. It is allot to adjust to a new school, new town, new people, and on top of trying to find your way around and getting lost then dealing with being late and trying to get home after having a rough time making friends or eating that lonely lunch they expect you to do a ton of work they bombard then test you on. Its always nice to have someone to take some of that stress and weight off your shoulders, I wouldn't worry, I am more than happy to make sure you don't go through any of that." Gabriel nodded towards the school "Come on lets get going before the bell rings" Gabriel slowly headed towards the school.
