Long after they stopped, Gabriel held her tightly in his arms.
"Keep this New Year's gift for me, I'll want it anytime!" His voice was deep and hoarse.
Sylvia clutched his shirt tightly, "I really don't care anymore!"
It was against etiquette and might be looked down upon, but she didn't care about any of that now.
"So eager?" he chuckled, his voice rough.
Sylvia frowned, flipped open his coat, and bit him.
Gabriel only slightly furrowed his brow, looking down at her frustrated expression, "Little wildcat!"
Sylvia didn't bite too hard and quickly got up, smoothing his shirt with her hand, her forehead resting against it.
Gabriel wrapped his arms around her, and in that moment, as they hugged quietly, listening to the distant sounds of fireworks and the New Year's bells tolling, it felt as though they had become one.
...
The next morning, after Sylvia had freshened up and was about to leave, she saw the New Year's gift from Old Mr. Jarvis on the table. She walked over and opened the box.
Inside was a tourmaline bracelet, with emerald spacers between the raw stone beads. The colors were soft, and the quality was delicate, clearly a priceless treasure.
As she held it, Gabriel walked in, surprised to see the tourmaline in her hands, "Is this what Grandpa gave you last night?"
"Yeah!" Sylvia, noticing something off in Gabriel's expression, asked, "Is there something special about it?"
Gabriel looked at her meaningfully, "It was one of Grandma's dowry pieces."
Sylvia gasped, realizing its value, "Grandma's dowry? Why did Grandpa give it to me?"
Gabriel looked at her, "What do you think?"
Sylvia stared into his eyes, unwavering, "Then you tell me, should I accept it?"
Gabriel took the tourmaline and placed it on her wrist. The bright color of the stone against her porcelain skin was a perfect match, as if it was meant for Sylvia.
"Keep it," Gabriel said.
