Gabriel stood waiting in the ballroom, leaned casually against the organ as he checked his watch.<em>10:30... </em>They would be getting there soon, if they didn't screw everything up.  Gabe hated having to trust anyone with something so massive, much less three people, two of whom he barely even knew.  It made him extremely nervous.  It was a necessity though, and it would be more than worth it if they managed to pull it off.<br/><br/>Gabriel had been looking forward to this party for over a month, and it had taken more than a little money and smooth talking to make it happen.  It hadn't been easy to arrange a midnight ball in the Winchester House, even if he did work there, but it was the only choice.  The spell would not work anywhere else, not anywhere that Gabe knew of, at any rate.  It was a done deal now.  Diana would be working the spell very soon, surely, and when the guests had arrived, they would finish it.  They would get everything the wanted and more.  It felt almost too good to be true, but Gabriel squashed that thought with a vengeance.<em>Nothing can go wrong,</em>he repeated to himself again and again.<em>As long as the girls get here on time.</em><br/><br/>Nerves got the better of Gabriel when Diana walked in, and he jumped a little in spite of himself.  He shook it off quickly and returned to his casual, mildly irritated demeanor.  "No Paige.  Just me.  Everything set so far?"  Gabriel fiddled with the plain, sheer white sheet wrapped around his arm.  Not the most original costume of the night, he was almost positive of that, but it was easy to remove.  That would mean everything soon.
