"That might be a good idea," Gabriel admitted, well aware of the look Eddy was giving him.  Eddy was observant; of course he had noticed the text message, and of course he had noticed Gabe's reaction.  Gabriel could hide many things from many people, but Eddy knew him better.<br/><br/>"You should go home...  Think about this mysterious Luke and what kind of movies or food he might like.  Dwell on your crush.  That sort of thing."  It was said with fondness, affection, but Gabriel did mean the implied goodbye.  It was time for Eddy to leave; if he stayed any longer, Gabriel would just be getting antsy as he waited for Paul, and the young man would make for even worse company than he did on average.<br/><br/>He reached over and lightly patted Eddy's chest, a strangely tactile response that seemed out of place for him, but Eddy would recognize it as his way of showing he cared, even if he was sending Eddy off.  "It was good to see you, Eddy.  I hope our chat helped."
