Gabriel didn't stay in place for the amount of time that it took Jack to shower, the anger still sizzling under his skin, keeping it all to himself. Isolating in keeping the bond disconnected; a punishment and letting it be very clear that Jack had apparently crossed a line, a sort of anger that wasn't to be taken lightly.
He moved off the bed, throwing down the oxygen mask and nearly let the thoughts to just leave himself filter across his mind. Knew better than to act on them, even as he eyed the sniper on the floor, picked it up and just set it out of sight, inside the poor excuse of a closet. Hell, even had the temptation to just go outside the door and pay for another few hours. Anything to get out of the room rather than dwell.
Instead he picked up the MRE that had been knocked to the floor, the packet still warm to the touch and seated himself on the floor, back against the bed and facing the entrance door to the room itself. Tearing open the packet and using a spork that came with the pack to very, very slowly eat the still warm macaroni and cheese.
Fuck going another day without eating more than a few bites of an energy bar.
