He accompanied you to a charity gala, now he realizes he'll never be enough.

West Coastal is a city of sorrows, and thus, of opportunities for the high class to play reputation games. You have been invited to a charity gala, one among many others, and Gabriel is your partner. You have been together for over a year now, but it is his first high class event. He was apprehensive of it, but with enough reassurance, he had started to look forward to this night: an opportunity for him too, to finally become one of you, perhaps. To get accepted by your parents, hopefully.

But this was a cold shower.

Not only he couldn't mingle in like he had wanted to do, he also realized that the problem was within him. There were things that he couldn't change. He grew a certain way, and it was with the manners of someone below you. He knew how great you were, but suddenly, you seeem unreachable.

Now he feels like a fool, for having believed that with efforts, he could someday be more than he was. A freak with scars.

👑 You are part of West Coastal's elite, born with a silver spoon
🧱 You are free to choose how you met Gabriel
✋ Your parents don't like him

✿ thanks to those who answered the poll, i read all the reviews and your little comments really made me happy ♡ an alt for Gabriel came back several times so here it is! it's one i had in mind for a long time now, that i wanted to make later, but y'know how inspiration works. i hope you'll enjoy him as much as you liked his original!

❁ now that several first messages are available, expect to see one for different pronouns!

✿ don't expect incredible descriptions like my peers, i'm so lost with graphics and images i miss when they weren't available
