[disneymiraculousefandomsblog]

Hey Guys! So this is a one shot story request from an Anon, this story is about Mateo and Gabe teaming up together to plan the best sweethearts day for their girlfriends Naomi and Carla. This is my first time writing a ship edit, especially with the EOA Fandom heh. So I apologize if it does not come out exactly like you wanted, i hope you enjoy/like this story. Happy Reading!

Sweethearts Day Madness

It was a beautiful day in Avalor, the whole kingdom was buzzing because this was the second time they were able to celebrate Sweethearts day now that Suriki has been defeated. On every corner you could see Merchant stands selling Flowers, Chocolates, and Jewelry, yes it was a very special day for couples to show their partner how much they love and appreciate them.

Gabe was finishing his shift as a Royal Guard, he saw and heard a familiar voice and face calling his name.

“Hey Gabe!” Mateo said with a wave.

“Hey Mateo, what up?” Gabe asked.

“I was going to ask you if you were going to do anything for Sweethearts day? Since you and Naomi are dating now, plus this is your first year being together.” Mateo said with a small chuckle.

“Of course I’m going to celebrate Sweethearts day with Naomi, this is our first year together. I want to show her how much she means to me, and how I appreciate all she has done for us. Now i just have to plan something special, something that she will remember but what?” Gabe said tapping his chin in thought.

“Wait isn’t this the first year you and Carla are together too? Why aren’t you planning something for her?” Gabe asked with his arms crossed.

“Well, your right. It is Carla and i first year together, but i came to ask you what you were going to do for Naomi? Hoping maybe i could get an idea as to what i could do for Carla.”

Gabe and Mateo stayed silent for a few moments thinking what they could plan for their Girlfriends. Mateo was the first one to break the silence with a snap of his fingers,“Ohh i have an idea! How about we write little notes with clues inside leading them to a special spot where they would meet us? Then we could surprise them with our gifts and a special dinner for them? Mateo Suggested.

“Hey that’s not a bad idea Mateo, I’m sure the girls will love it. If we work together we could have everything ready before night fall, What do you say? We work together to make this the best Sweethearts day for Naomi and Carla? Gabe asked stretching out his hand.

“Deal” Mateo said shaking Gabe’s hand.

“Great! So where do we start first?” Gabe asked.

“Hmm well we have to find the perfect romantic place for us to set up everything, any ideas?” Mateo asked.

“Ooh how about the royal garden? I’m sure Queen Elena won’t mind if we use it. We could set up some tables with Carla and Naomi favorite flowers in the middle, we can also get some Mariachis like Naomi had at her Quinceanera.” Gabe suggested.

“That’s a great idea Gabe, and i can light up the sky with some fireworks with a special spell for a grand finally.” Mateo said.

“Great! I’ll start setting the place up with everything we need for the dinner, and you can get started on the notes with clues and maybe some riddles they have to solve to make it more interesting. Then we can meet up in the garden and wait for the girls to arrive. Gabe stated.

“Great, I’ll see you later then.” Mateo said with a nod walking away to get his tasks done.

Gabe headed to the kitchen, He asked the Royal Chef if he could make Naomi and Carlas favorite food with their favorite dessert on the side. The Royal Chef nodded with agreement telling Gabe that he would have the food ready and packed up for them within the hour. Gabe smiled giving a thank you and headed to the village market.

“Wow look at all these people, This is the busiest I’ve seen the village since Navidad.” Gabe said to himself.

Gabe continued to walk seeing merchants around every corner promoting their products, he passes by Dona Paloma shop. Dona Paloma spots Gabe and calls out to him. “Gabe!” Dona Paloma said waving her hand.

“Hello Dona Paloma, what can i do for you?” Gabe asked her.

“Well a little Birdy told me that you and Naomi are a pair now, I have a few specials going on that would be a perfect gift for her.” Dona Paloma said opening her fan and fanning herself.

Gabe tried his best not to roll his eyes, he knew Dona Paloma was just all about business and making money. Gabe pondered for a few moments, he didn’t have a gift for Naomi yet and Dona Paloma did have a few nice things that Naomi would possibly like.

“Yes Naomi and i are dating, this is our first year together.” Gabe said.

“Well then that’s great! If you haven’t gotten Naomi a gift yet, i know the perfect gift for her.” Dona Paloma said with a smirk.

“Alright Dona Paloma you got me, what do you have that would be a perfect gift for Naomi?” Gabe said lifting his hands in defeat.

“Come inside and I’ll show you” Dona Paloma said signaling him to follow her.

Gabe followed Dona Paloma inside the shop, His eyes darted from corner to corner of the shop seeing all the merchandise she had, Dona Paloma grabs a soft blue velvet box and opens it reveling a necklace with a crystal diamond and a set of of blue diamond earrings. “This just came in today, I think this would be a perfect gift for Naomi.” Dona said handing Gabe the box.

Gabe takes the box from Dona Paloma and takes a closer look at the set of jewelry, he had to admit it was beautiful definitely something Naomi didn’t have.

“This is a very nice gift and i know Naomi would love it but, she likes sailing so i was thinking of getting her something she could use when she goes sailing.” Gabe said putting down the box.

“That would be nice but, Naomi is a sailor I’m sure she would have everything a sailor would need. This is something you know for sure she doesn’t have and would love. You don’t want to risk getting her something that she already has and making yourself look bad on your first Sweethearts Day together do you?” Dona asked closing her fan.

Gabe stayed quiet thinking to himself, Dona Paloma had a point. What if he got Naomi something she already had, he knew she would like whatever he gave her but it would look bad that he got his girlfriend something that she already had, especially on their first Sweethearts day together.

“Alright Dona Paloma you convinced me I’ll take it.” Gabe said paying her.

“You made the right choice, I guarantee Naomi will love her gift.” Dona said putting the box in a small gift bag handing it to Gabe.

“Thank you.” Gabe said with a nod walking out the door.

Meanwhile back at the Castle Mateo was setting the clues all around the place the girls would always be. “There this is the last of them” Mateo said placing the last clue inside a pot of flowers. “Now i just have to finish making Carla’s gift and then i can go meet Gabe.” Mateo said walking back to his shop.

Mateo opened the door to his shop and opened a small secret door next to the bookshelf. “Zapota” Mateo said hitting his Tamborita opening the secret door revealing another Tamborita that was red and yellow with a beautiful red rose in the middle.

“Now i just have to add the finishing touches to the Tamborita and it will be ready” Mateo said grabbing it and putting it on the table. He aimed his Tamborita at the other Tamborita, “Inscipcion” Mateo said hitting his Tamborita.

Carla’s Tamborita began to glow and float in the air, a thin gold line of magic began engraving something on the handle. After a few moments the magic began to disappear causing the Tamborita to fall gently to the table, “Its Perfect!” Mateo said with a smile as he grabbed the Tamborita analyzing it closely. 
“Now i can meet Gabe” Mateo said grabbing the Tamborita and putting it in a gift bag.

Meanwhile in the Royal Garden Gabe was setting up the tables and chairs, adding a few decorations around the trees, making it look presentable for when the girls arrive.

“Its looking great if i do say so myself.” Gabe said proudly.

“Now I’m just missing a banner saying Happy Sweethearts Day.” Gabe said grabbing a banner he had bought in the market.

The royal chef came out with pushing a cart full of the food Gabe had requested. “Wow this looks amazing! And it smells delicious Thank you!” Gabe said smelling the aroma coming form the food.

The Royal Chef gave a smile thanking Gabe for the compliment. Gabe grabbed the banner and begins to climb the ladder to hang it across to where the entrance of the garden was. A few moments later when Gabe was done setting everything up Mateo arrived, “Hey Gabe, wow this looks great! The girls will love it.” Mateo said in awe taking in all the decorations and scenery.

“Thanks bro, i think the girls will like it too. Did you finish everything you needed to do?” Gabe asked him.

“Yes i did, i even got to pick up some flowers and a card for Carla too. What about you? Did you finish what you needed to do?” Mateo asked putting down his gifts on the table.

“Yep i got Naomi her gift and I finished decorating so everything should be set and ready for when the girls arrive, the Mariachi should be here soon.” Gabe said with assurance.

“Great, now i just have practice my spell to light the sky up with fireworks.” Mateo said pulling out his Tamborita with style.

Mateo aimed his Tamborita to the sky, The royal chef began to add the plates to the table trying to avoid Mateo. As the Royal Chef began walking to the table he did not see the rock in front of him causing him to trip and bump into Mateo causing him to say the wrong spell. “Chihufiti” Mateo said hitting the Tamborita as he fell to the ground. The spell flew out of Mateo Tamborita hitting the banner instead of the sky, the banner began to catch fire, ‘Ahh Mateo! What happened?!” Gabe asked shocked as he saw the banner on fire.

“Someone bumped into me making me aim and say the wrong spell.” Mateo said picking himself up.

“Mateo the Banner is on fire, we have to put it out before it falls on the trees causing a bigger fire and hurting people” Gabe said pointing to the banner.

“I got it, i can fix this, i know a spell that can help” Mateo said raising up his Tamborita. Before Mateo could say the magic spell the banner fell on top of the tables causing the flowers in the middle to catch fire. “Ooh No!” Mateo shouted putting his hands on his head stressfully.

“Quick we have to put it out before the other flowers catch on fire, I’ll get some water to put it out.” Gabe said running to get a water hose.

“I’ll help you” Mateo said running right behind him.

Back at the Castle Naomi had just finished her Chancellor duties, “I’m finally done for today, who knew being Chancellor would be so busy sometimes. I haven’t even spent any time with Gabe, and its Sweethearts day. I better go find him, he should be done with his Captain duties too.” Naomi said making her way to find Gabe.

Carla was walking around the castle looking for Mateo, I haven’t seen Mateo all day, I wonder where he could be?” Carla thought to herself.

“Hmm he’s probably finishing up some kind of potion or something, i better go find him if we want to spend the rest of Sweethearts day together.” Carla said walking towards Mateo’s workshop.

As she was walking she saw Naomi walking the same direction she was. “Hey Naomi, you done with you chancellor duties for the day?” Carla asked.

“Hey Carla, yes i am done for the day. By any chance have you seen Gabe anywhere? I haven��t seen him all day, he didn’t even have come to say Happy Sweethearts day to me, its not like Gabe to forget something special like today. Naomi asked puzzled.

“No I haven’t seen Gabe, but i am looking for Mateo to. He didn’t come to say Happy Sweethearts day to me either. Maybe they are together? They are always hanging out and working together, maybe if we find Mateo we could find Gabe too, do you want to come with me and we can find our lost boyfriends together?” Carla asked her.

“That’s a great idea, count me in.” Naomi said with a smile.

“Alright, i was thinking we check his lab first and see if they are there. He’s usually there most of the time practicing his magic and coming up with new potions and spells.” Carla stated.

“Okay I’ll follow you Carla, lead the way” Naomi said letting Carla take the lead.

Carla smiled and made her way to Mateo workshop Naomi walking right behind her. Carla and Naomi made it to Mateo workshop seeing the door was opened, they walked in and saw that neither Mateo or Gabe were there. “Well they are not here, where could they be?” Naomi said.

“I’m not sure where else Mateo would be doing, it’s Sweethearts day and he never came to even say “Hi.” Carla said with a hint of sadness in her voice.

“I’m sure Mateo didn’t forget what day today is, maybe he’s just planning something special for you and will come find you when he’s done.” Naomi said putting a hand on her shoulder.

“Thank you Naomi” Carla said with a soft smile.

“Hey what’s that?” Naomi said a piece of paper with two orchids taped to it catching her eye.

Carla set her gaze to where Naomi was looking, she grabbed the paper and the two orchids. “Dear Naomi and Carla, we knew you would be looking for us. Gabe and i set some notes around the castle with riddles you have to solve that will lead you to a special place Gabe and i planned, Every riddle you solve will leave you to another riddle leading you to your destination. Love Mateo and Gabe. P.S. The orchids are for you and Naomi.” Carla read aloud with a smile.

“Aww they didn’t forget, they are just trying to make it special for us.” Naomi said grabbing one orchid putting it in her hair.

“Yeah i guess they didn’t, has Mateo always gone all out for someone he likes before?” Carla asked putting the orchid on the side of her hair.

“Well to be honest i know he had a huge crush on Elena and he was always trying to impress her, but he never anything like this.” Naomi answered.

“Ooh really? Well i guess that makes us both special if they are going through all this for us.” Carla said with small chuckle.

“Yes i guess it does, so what is the first riddle we have to solve?” Naomi asked.

“It says, What is mine but only you can have?” Carla read aloud.

“Hmm what is mine but only you can have?” Naomi recited in thought,

“Well if he’s speaking physically it could be anything.” Carla stated tapping her lip in thought.

“Hmm, Ooh i got it!” Naomi said snapping her fingers.

“What is it?” Carla asked curiously.

“Well i figured that it couldn’t be anything Physically because the only thing Mateo and Gabe have is their sword and Tamborita. Stuff they wouldn’t give us or we already have, so my guess is their heart. Because it’s theirs, but they give it to us and were the only ones who have something that is theirs. So the answer is heart” Naomi explained.

“Wow Naomi your right! lets see if that’s the answer. Wait, Where do we find a heart?” Carla asked looking around.

Naomi looked around the workshop looking for something that resembled a heart, Carla began to look around when a certain potion caught her eye. “Hey Naomi come look.” Carla said calling her over.

“What you find?” Naomi asked.

Carla grabbed a heart shaped vile with some kind of pink liquid inside. “Why would Mateo have this in his workshop?” Carla said opening the vile and sniffing it.

“This smells like my favorite perfume Mateo gave me on our first date.” Carla said.

“Hey look their is another one, and it has a not attached to it.” Naomi said grabbing the second heart vile and grabbing the paper.

“It says, congratulations you figured out the first riddle, the two heart shaped viles contain the perfumes Gabe and i gave you both on our first date. If your ready to solve the second riddle flip the paper.” Naomi read aloud.

“Naomi this one must be yours.” Carla said handing her the heart shaped Vile with blue/green liquid inside.

Naomi grabs the perfume taking off the lid and smells its aroma, “Yep this is definitely the one Gabe gave me, it smells amazing as always.” Naomi said with a smile.

“Well at least we know Gabe and Mateo are in this together” Carla said with a small laugh.

“Yep those two can do anything when they work together.” Naomi said with a small chuckle.

“What does the next riddle say.” Carla asked.

“This object wears a leather coat to keep its skin in working order. It escorts you to other realms and has words that could even make you fly.” Carla read aloud.

“Hmm what wears leather and contains words that could transport you to different realms and make you fly?” Naomi said thinking aloud.

“Well the only way you can transport you to other realms is with a magic spell and a magical object like a wand.” Carla said pondering. Carla eyes widen and a smile forms on her face as he sees her Tamborita, “I got it! You need magic and a spell to open a portal to another realm and to fly, but where do you go to find the spell?” Carla asked Naomi.

“The Library has spell books that you could use to find the right spell.” Naomi answered tapping her chin in thought.

“That’s it Naomi, the answer is a spell book.” Carla said with a smile.

“Carla your right! A spell book is covered in leather to protect it from getting damaged, and has the magic words to make you fly and transport you to other realms.” Naomi said giving Carla a high-five.

Carla smiled and returns the high-five, “Next stop the library” Carla said.

Back in the garden Gabe and Mateo finally put out the fire. “Phew, we did it Mateo” Gabe said wiping his forehead.

“Yeah that was a close one, I’m sorry about your banner Gabe.” Mateo said rubbing his arm.

“It’s okay, it was an accident. At least we didn’t put the whole garden on fire right?” Gabe said with a chuckle elbowing him on the arm.

“Heh yeah that would have been a disaster.” Mateo said with a small chuckle.

“ Well we may not have a banner but at least we still have the tables, the gifts, and the food and the Mariachi.” Gabe said trying to look on the bright side.

The Royal chef tapped Gabe on the shoulder telling him that the food fell to the ground when he tripped, they didn’t have any food and it would take an hour to make the food all over again, he also told him that the Mariachi were not coming due to their singer getting sick causing him to loose his voice.

“Well now we don’t have any food, the food fell to the ground when he tripped and bumped into you. It will take him an hour to make all the food again, and the Mariachi canceled because their singer is sick. Gabe said pinching the bridge of his nose.

“What are we going to do? The girls are probably on their last riddle and could be here soon.” Mateo said worriedly.

“Okay let me think, we still have the presents, the tables, and the flowers. Maybe we can go to the cafe and get some of that special Sweethearts stew and bring it here?” Gabe suggested.

“That’s not a bad idea Gabe, but do you think the Cafe is still open? Its almost sunset, and most of the shops close around this time.” Mateo said.

“Your right Mateo, i don’t know If they are opened.”Gabe said with a sigh.

“Do you have any ideas?” Gabe asked Mateo.

“Well i could see if i have a spell that could conjure up some food, I’ve never tried it before but i could give it a shot.” Mateo said.

“Well if its the only way, we might as well try it.” Gabe stated.

“Okay let me go to my workshop and find the spell in one of my books, hopefully the girls are not their anymore.” Mateo said running inside the castle to find the spell.

Meanwhile Carla and Naomi were in the library looking for the next riddle. “Okay i already looked through 5 spell books and I haven’t found anything yet, what about you Naomi?” Carla asked putting a spell book down.

“Well this is the last spell book so it has to be in this one right?” Naomi asked.

“Yeah i suppose so, lets open it and find out.” Carla said opening the book.

Carla flipped through the pages until she saw a small pink paper in the middle, she grabs it closing the book and putting it down.

“What’s more rare and more valuable than gold, but easier to loose?” Carla read aloud.

“What’s more rare and valuable than gold but easy to loose..” Naomi recited tapping her foot in thought.

“What could be more rare than gold? Magic or maybe your family?” Carla suggested.

“Could be, but magic is rare but not as rare as gold. I think your onto something with the family party though.” Naomi answered.

“Well to me i think family and friendship is more rare and precious than gold, because its so rare to find, but it’s easy to loose if you’re not careful.” Carla said sitting down on a nearby chair.

As the girls kept trying to figure out the riddle, Mateo was in his workshop looking for the right spell book. “Aha found it! This should have the spell I’m looking for.” Mateo said writing it down on a piece of paper.

Mateo heard the girls talking to each other as he was writing down the spell, “I better hurry I don’t want them to see me.” Mateo thought to himself writing down the spell as fast as he could.

Mateo stuffed the piece of paper in his pocket and quietly ran past the library without the girls noticing him. “Gabe i got the spell, we better hurry though. Carla and Naomi have almost figured out the riddle and could be here any minute.” Mateo said out of breath.

“Okay well do your thing buddy.” Gabe said encouragingly.

“Chokltee” Mateo said hitting his Tamborita.

The magic flew from his Tamborita to the table, But instead of cooked food appearing 3 live animals appeared, a Cow, a Chicken, and a pig.

“Mateo that’s not food those are animals, What happened?” Gabe asked confused seeing the animals on top of the table causing it to break front the animals weight.

“Ugh! Nice going Mateo, I down the right spell but i was in a hurry so the girls wouldn’t see me i mixed up the words when i was writing it down.” Mateo explained facepalming himself.

“Can’t you reverse the spell?” Gabe asked.

“ I can but I don’t know the spell, I have to get it from my book. I won’t have time the girls will be here any second, what are we going to do now?” Mateo asked.

“I don’t know, this day is not going as we planned at all.” Gabe said with a sigh.

Meanwhile back at the library Carla and Naomi may have finally solved the riddle.

“I got it!” Naomi said.

“You solved the riddle?” Carla asked.

“I kept thing about what you said about how family Is more valuable and rare to find, and how easy you can loose it with whatever decisions you make. Well what if the answer is Love or Friendship?” Naomi said.

“Your right Naomi, True Love and Friendship is very hard and rare to find, and you can loose it very easily. So the answer has to be Love or Friendship, let’s see if that’s the answer.” Carla said looking for something that resembles Love.

“There look” Carla said pointing to the table with a plant on top and two crystal hearts hidden inside the pot.

“Their crystal hearts and it says I Love you on top, and there is a note too.” Naomi said grabbing the crystal hearts and note.

“The answer was love/friendship together, it was both answers. The crystal hearts are for both of us. It says, now that you have solved the riddles, we need to head to the place where they first asked us out on a date.” Naomi read aloud.

“The Garden” Naomi and Carla said in unison.

Naomi and Carla made their way to the Royal Garden, as soon as they had arrived they saw their boyfriends running after a chicken and a pig. The tables were broken, their was something big burned on the ground that looked like a banner, and their were burned flowers on the floor.

“Guys what’s going on?” Naomi said shocked at what she was seeing.

Mateo and Gabe stop what they were doing and looked at the two girls with very shocked and confused expressions on their face.

“Carla, Naomi, you solved those riddles pretty quick heh.” Mateo said awkwardly

“What happened was that Mateo and I wanted to surprise you with something special for the both of you for Sweethearts Day, we were going to have a nice dinner with your favorite food and give you the gifts we bought you, and Mateo was even going to do a light show with fireworks. It was going to be the first perfect Sweethearts Day, and now it’s ruined I’m sorry girls.. we just wanted the first Sweethearts day we had with you to be special and we ruined it.” Gabe explained with a sad sigh.

Carla and Naomi looked at each other for a moment and back at the garden, they knew Gabe and Mateo worked really hard to make this day special for them and it hurt them to see their boyfriends sad. They both walk up to their boyfriends, “Gabe this is the sweetest thing you could have done for me, i know how hard you worked to make this first Sweethearts Day we celebrate together special but.. I don’t need a romantic dinner, flowers, or even a present. You are enough for me and i love you with all my heart Gabe, spending time with you on this day is perfect enough for me.” Naomi said gazing into his eyes with a soft smile on her face.

“I love you too Naomi, your the perfect girl for me.” Gabe said gazing into her eyes with a gentle smile on his face.

“Mateo you know you didn’t really have to do all this for me, you know I love you and I’m thankful to have you in my life. You know I never celebrated Sweethearts Day before because i never had a boyfriend or a real relationship with anyone before, but i don’t need you to prove your love for me by planning this romantic dinner, flowers, or even gifts. I already know you love me, and I love you more than you could know. I appreciate everything you did to make this day special for us but, all i wanted was to spend the day with you. That to me would have been the perfect Sweethearts Day for me, I love you Mateo.” Carla said hugging him.

“I love you too Carla” Mateo said returning the hug.

“Well i guess the day wasn’t totally ruined, you both solved our riddles and got the presents we left for you.” Mateo said with small chuckle.

“Yes but i wish we still could have at least had a romantic dinner.” Gabe stated.

Carla and Naomi look at each other and a smile forms on their faces, “You know i think I know how we can help you with that.” Naomi said giving a smile to Carla.

“How about you make those animal disappear back to where they came from and you follow us will show you how we can help.” Carla said signaling them to follow her and Naomi once they were done.

Mateo went back to grab his spell book, once he found the right spell he said the magic words while hitting his Tamborita sending the animals back to where they came from. Gabe grabbed the presents and flowers they had bought their girlfriends and followed right behind them. They arrived to the village and stopped at the cafe that was remarkably still opened, “Hi, can we have four of your special Sweethearts stew to go please?” Naomi asked the owner.

“Yes of course! Its been so busy today, i had to close the cafe late today. Luckily you made it just in time before closing time. Ill go pack those stews for you, I’ll be right back.” The owner said returning to the kitchen.

“See i told you the cafe was still opened.” Gabe said giving Mateo an arm bump.

“Alright you were right, and i was wrong I admit it.” Mateo said returning the arm bump to Gabe.

The owner came back with a basket filled with his special stew and two boxes of Avalor chocolates. “Here is your stews and i put two boxes of chocolates in their for you guys, enjoy and Happy Sweethearts Day!” The owner said handing the basket of food to Naomi.

“Thank you, Happy Sweethearts Day!” Naomi said waving goodbye.

“Wait so where are we going?” Gabe asked.

“You’ll see, its a place Elena and i went to you’ll like it.” Naomi answered.

They continued to walk from a few miles until they finally made it to the place Naomi said she and Elena had came. “We made it, you can set the stuff down on the ground i want to show you both something.” Naomi said.

Gabe and Mateo put down the stuff they were caring on the ground and followed Naomi to the edge of a hill right next to a waterfall. “This is the place Elena and i came to when she was trying to find a hiding place for Shuriki’s wand. I picked this spot because it’s right next to this beautiful waterfall, and we can stare up into the beautiful blue sky.” Naomi said with a smile.

“Sweetheart its beautiful, i couldn’t have picked a better spot to spend Sweethearts Day with you.” Gabe said giving her a kiss on the cheek.

Carla and Mateo smiled fondly at the two couple, “Gabe has a point, this is a very beautiful spot to celebrate this special day with you.” Mateo said with a smile.

“Yes and I wouldn’t have it any other way, this day Is already special now that I’m with you my handsome Wizard.” Carla said giving him a kiss.

The four of them began to set everything up, they put a blanket on the ground and set the food on top. The two couples began to eat their food and talk about everything that had happen that day, Gabe and Mateo told them what had happened and Carla and Naomi told them about how they solved the riddles, they all laughed and were having a good time together.

“I don’t think this day could get anymore special.” Naomi said.

“I think i know how” Gabe said giving Naomi his gift.

“Aww Gabe, you didn’t have to get me anything.” Naomi said taking the gift.

“Well I couldn’t let you celebrate our first Sweethearts Day together without a special gift.” Gabe said with a soft smile.

Naomi opened the gift and pulled out the blue velvet box, she opened the box revealing the crystal necklace and a pair of blue diamond earrings.

Naomi gasp as she sees the necklace and earrings, “Gabe i-this is so beautiful i love it, I’ve never seen a pair of jewelry like this before. Thank you Gabe, I’ll treasure it forever.” Naomi said putting on the necklace and earrings.

“How does it look?” Naomi asked her boyfriend.

“It looks beautiful, just like you.” Gabe answered with a smile.

“Thank you Gabe, I love my gift.” Naomi said cuddling close to his side.

“Your welcome, something special and precious for someone beautiful and special.” Gabe said holding her tight in his arms.

“Carla i have something for you too.” Mateo said pulling out the Tamborita.

“I made you a new Tamborita, designed especially for you.” Mateo said handing her the Tamborita.

“Mateo it’s beautiful, I absolutely love it. The red rose in the middle, my two colors, and you even engraved our initials on the handle with hearts on the side. It’s absolutely beautiful Mateo, I love it. Was this that big project you were working on and not wanting to tell me?” Carla asked.

“Yes, I wanted it to be a surprise, and it couldn’t be a surprise if i told you what it was.” Mateo said sheepishly.

“Well you did a great job at that, thank you Mateo i will always carry it with me.” Carla said huddling closer to him.

“I love you” Carla said laying her head on his side.

“I love you too” Mateo said holding her close.

“You know what’s missing to make this night perfect? Fireworks.” Mateo said grabbing his Tamborita.

“That would make this night perfect, just try not to set this whole place on fire okay?” Gabe teasingly said with a chuckle.

“Haha very hilarious, we all know why that happened.” Mateo sarcastically said.

“I know, I’m just kidding bro.” Gabe said with a small laugh.

Mateo rolled his eyes and smiled, “Chihufeti” Mateo said hitting his Tamborita aiming for the sky.

The sky began to light up with fireworks, The 2 couples sat down with each other holding each other closely. The Sweethearts Day did not go as how Mateo and Gabe planned it at first, but the day ended up being better than they had originally planned. Sometimes the simplest things like being with the one you love are the ones that mean the most and will always be treasured forever.

The End

Do you have any EoA LGBTQ+ headcanons?

why yes, yes i do! :)

my personal headcanons for the amigos are a bit less common than what you’d usually see around here lol, but that’s alright! everyone’s headcanons for the sexuality, gender identity, etc of their favorite characters are totally valid!! anyways, on to the headcanons!

elena - not to uh, self project or anything, but i headcanon elena as bi! i feel like she doesn’t realize it right away, but one day it just hits her like, “hey, i like girls too!” and the rest was history. of course, her family and friends are super supportive, and i’m sure the kingdom would be too.

naomi - i’ve seen naomi most commonly headcanoned as bi, and elena as lesbian, but this is what i mean by saying my headcanons are less common, bc i think the opposite! i’ve headcanoned naomi as lesbian since even before all the gabeomi scenes in s3, so we’ll just ignore canon at the moment lol. but yeah, i say that naomi finds herself a beautiful girlfriend at the port, and they sail away together to live the life of their dreams. but of course, they always come back, naomi’s got work to do as the chancellor! (also speaking of naomi..look at my gf and i’s matching pride icons! aren’t they cute? :) )

mateo - does this picture not answer your question

no straight man would ever sit like that, just saying. mateo stans don’t attack me but i headcanon mateo as gay lol! but we love that for him and he has the most supportive friend group and mamí who will always be there to support him!!

gabe - introducing the token straight! lmaoo idk if my man is like *totally* straight in this friend group, but he identifies as such. and of course, he’s their biggest ally (especially elena’s :) ) and loves his friends so much :)

other headcanons - i headcanon chloe as pan, i feel like ixlan gives me non binary vibes? antonia, marisa and rebecca..i don’t have sexualities down for them yet but they aren’t straight lol, wlw definitely though!

so yeah, those are about all i’ve got for now! i’m constantly thinking about/adding to my lil elena universe so, you could ask me this next month and get even more answers lol. thanks so much for asking, i was excited to talk more about this!! :)

Ship Ask Game: Gabeomi?

So I like it and I’m happy if they are canon, although I’m kind of...confused about their status and also the development in season 3? Like, so there is that episode with whole romantic tension, kind of suddenly, then there is dance in magic within, then Naomi goes away for few months in universe and there is like no showing Gabe’s reaction to this? 

Anyway, I like it, I’m just little confused

[glorytoukraine2022]

Thanks for this wonderful answer, @lieutenant-amuel! I love your thoughts on Gabe, Naomi and Elena here. While I doubt that Elena would care if her husband and the future king of Avalor was born as a Prince or a baker’s boy, looking at Gabe, I really don’t think that he has any desire to become King of Avalor. He’s just happy as a Royal Guard. Doing what he loves. And I don’t think Gabe wants or needs anything more than that.

I feel the same way about Mateo. I know Gabelena and Eleteo are both very popular ships, but like Gabe, Mateo is passionate about magic and Wizardry. He also doesn’t need nor want to become King. I look at those two boys and see two young men who are both perfectly happy with where they are.

I feel like you are an expert in all things Gave related. I know your OTP for him is Gabeomi. I know that both Gabeomi and Gabelena are both popular ships for Gabe. However, you have such depth and insight into his character, so I want to hear your reasonings, as to why Naomi is the better love interest for Gabe then Elena.

Hello! Thank you so much for the ask! And it's really very touching that you decided to ask me about that!

Actually, I already received a similar ask some time ago, and the reasons why I love Gabe and Naomi together didn't really change since then. Here it is. Anyway, if you ask me what makes me love them more than Gabelena, then I'll just try to summarize.

For me, Gabe and Naomi understand each other better than Gabe and Elena. They have similar traits and also faced similar problems, like proving their worth, despite their origins. By the way, they both also are not magical.

Their relationship seems more lively and free, because they both are from humble families, and honestly, I don't think that Gabe would feel 100% comfortable with Elena because of that. As I was saying in one of my posts, Gabe was trying to impress Elena, even when they weren't close friends, so I think it would be difficult for him to see her as his girlfriend and wife eventually. Deep inside he still sees himself as a baker boy and doesn't think he deserves her. It's different with Naomi, so I think they would understand each other on the mental level much better.

Gabe interacts much more with Naomi than with Elena, especially since season 2. They work together during the battles, protect each other, and have a very high trust level, imo.

Besides, they spend time together outside the battles as well. Naomi chose Gabe as her teammate in "Blockheads", Gabe joined Naomi on the carnival in "The Magic Within" (he literally ran to the float after catching Ash. He didn't stay with Elena, he went to Naomi).

I may accept (or not really) Gabe might have had something for Elena, but with the new episodes coming up, it's perfectly clear to me that he becomes much closer to Naomi. He doesn't need to impress her or prove to her anything and even never tried to. He can always be himself with her, and this is definitely very important for him

Plus, sure, this is super subjective, but just to summarize, the main things I love about Gabaomi are:

1) their free, teasing, and friendship-like dynamic. They understand each other pretty well, and if their relationship was explored more in canon, their little crushes in NPP wouldn't seem like it came from nowhere and also because it just didn't.

2) they simply apply to me. I really love the friendship-ike dynamic between lovers and do think that the true love can be built only through friendship (because it always contains mutual respect and similar interests). They seem very lively and real to me, and I won't lie I kinda wish of having such a romantic relationship myself.

And I think that's it. I just want to say that this is only my opinion. This post wasn't written to offend Gabelena shippers and tell them that their ship is wrong. I just shared my thoughts and explained why I ship Gabaomi, without forcing anyone to love them too.

Thank you so much for the ask again! Hope I could explain well why I prefer Gabaomi over Gabelena and other ships as well!

[glorytoukraine2022]

1, 10, 12 for salty ask for elena of avalor?

1. I mentioned a few of these yesterday, but one OTP I really don’t get is Carzel. Marzel and Carla never interactacted in the Series. They are never shown to have any kind of connection. So I don’t understand any sort of dynamic these characters might have, nor do I understand why people believe they would fall in love and have a future together. Why would they fall in love with somebody they’ve never met? Who they barely even know. I simply don’t see it.

I also mentioned Eleteo. I can see the viewpoint people are coming from when they see Mateo and Elena interact, but I don’t see that “spark” there. Their friendship is wonderful, but that’s all I see them as: very good friends. I don’t see them as compatible as a couple. It just doesn’t seem to fit. I don’t see them ever seeking anything more out of each other than friendship. Mateo is cute and dorky, but I don’t see Elena that way.

Esteban/Elena. No. Just no. I love that Elena forgave Esteban in the end and that they were able to repair their relationship. And yes, Esteban knows everything there is to know about Royals and Royal affairs, and thus would problem know everything there is to know about being a King, so I can understand the appeal. But they are cousins. Their mothers were sisters. So Elena and Esteban having any sort of relationship would be considered incest. Not to mention Esteban is biologically much older than Elen. So no, I will never understand why people ship this.

Esteban x Naomi. know a lot of people ship this because of their dynamic in “My Fair Naomi”, but Esteban was just being Naomi’s mentor. They were in no way romantically attracted to each other. Even more importantl, Esteban is a grown adult, and in “My Fair Naomi”, Naomi was 15 going on 16. They have an age gap, that no amount of aging up can close.

Another one is Gababel. This couple too has a huge age gap. I know people like to age up Isabel for this ship, and the age gap will be less significant as they grow older, but I still just can’t see it. Gabe meets Isabel when she is only 10-11 years old. It just doesn’t make sense.

I would also like to add Esteban x ShurikI. Just because he made a deal with her as a teenager and served her as Chancellor for 41 years does NOT mean that Esteban and Shuriki are in love with each other. Shuriki murdered Esteban’s Aunt and Uncle! In the deal they made, Esteban made her promise that nobody would get hurt, yet who in his family got hurt? Let’s see…..EVERYONE! Why on earth would Esteban feel any connection to this woman? Also, Shuriki is much, much older than she looks. The only read why she has a youthful appearance is because of her magic.

Shuriki x Victor. Many of the reasons why I do not support this pairing is similar to my reasons for not shipping Victor and Esteban. Making a deal with an evil sorceress does not mean you are in love with them. If there was any attraction to Shuriki, than it was just a teenage crush. Shuriki manipulated Victor just as much as she did Esteban.

She banished Victor and his family from Avalor! Why would he fall in love with her? Also no, Victor working for Shuriki in season 2 doesn’t mean he was attracted to her either. He was working for her in exchange for power. Nothing more. As I said with Esteban, Shuriki has a younger appearance due to her magic. She is also probably much older than Victor.

One last ship I will mention is Gabeomi. Like with Eleteo, I just didn’t see the spark…at least, not until the finale. Now that Gabe and Naomi are confirmed to end up together in the finale, I am putting myself 100 percent behind the ship and supporting it. As long as Gabe and Naomi are happy together, that’s all that matters to me. I just need some really good Gabeomi shippers to sell it to me, because I haven’t been convinced yet.

10. I don’t know if I have a most disliked arc. Everybody in the show had great arcs and great character development. Even side characters. I was a little uncertain about Naomi becoming Chancellor of Avalor, since having such a high, hoity-toity position never struck me as in line with Naomi’s character. However, I’m sure she’ll do great. If Elena believes she’s the right choice, and as long as Naomi wants the job and is up for it, than I’m supportive of Naomi becoming Avalor’s Chancellor.

12. As I said above, I think all of the arcs were good and fantastically developed, so I can’t really think of an unpopular one. I dont know if they were unpopular or not, but two arcs that I enjoyed were Dona Paloma and Julio, her “assistant party planner” and Carla and Mateo as well. I know those were two side relationships and not plot important, but I enjoyed them nonetheless. It also helps build up to their foreshadowed romantic relationships at the end of the series.

[lieutenant-amuel]

I know you’re a fan of Gabeomi, but I’ve been wondering about Gabe’s relationships with Naomi and Elena in general. Gabe seems to be close to both girls, but how do his relationships with Elena and Naomi differ? Do they progress and develop differently?

Well, I'm not sure what you're asking exactly, but as I got you're wondering how Gabe's relationship with Elena and Naomi was developing? Anyway, in that case, I want to make a little warning: I won't analyze it from the ship perspective because neither of these two relationships had a romantic purpose (yes, yes, Gabaomi being canon is like super obvious and such, but I, as a Gabaomi shipper, do not consider it canon because of a lack of the setup of their relationship and absolute absence of romantic interaction further. No, their dance doesn't count).

When it comes to Elena and Gabe, it took them longer to become friends compared to the rest of the four amigos dynamics, because originally they were introduced as "princess-guard" and their relationship was rather official. Although it was mostly coming from Gabe who, well, started referring to her by her name only in Olaball (actually, in "The Scepter of Light", but this is an another field for speculations), whereas Elena was friend-like to him basically since the beginning.

I already mentioned that I never perceived the way Gabe acted towards Elena as "him having a crush" (but again, this is a topic for other post) and for me, the turning point of their relationship was the olaball episode where Gabe opened up to Elena and they both kinda saw each other from the new perspectives (Elena finally sees Gabe's insecurities which he hid behind the mask of "the cool brave macho", whereas Gabe realizes that he doesn't need to act like this to make Elena care about him - she already sees him as her friend).

Further, their relationship actually can be called friendship. Gabe trains Elena to fence (and they had fencing lessons even before this episode!), they have adventures within their "four friends knot", and finally, they get even closer during "The Curse of El Guapo" when Gabe shares his feelings with Elena again. And this episode is generally interesting in terms of their relationship, because it really shows how much their friendship grew. Elena openly roots for Gabe in front of the other guards, and he didn't even feel uncomfortable about it. Like, this is how it's supposed to be.

And again, this is interesting, because as Gabe became captain, their relationship kinda degraded, and they returned to the "princess-guard" setting but in a different sense. Gabe used to be be a knight in the shining armor and now he's an Avaloran officer who takes his responsibility to protect the princess (and kingdom) very seriously.

They tried to balance it out (like in "The Scepter of Night"), but Gabe nonetheless wanted to be in charge. It kinda calls back the beginning of the show when Gabe was way too protective, but again, it happens for a different reason (which also speaks a lot about Gabe's growth as a character, just saying).

It's difficult to say anything about their relationship in the second half of season 2, since they barely interacted (and there was barely Gabe :')) but I think they already start to trust each other more, since Gabe doesn't object Elena's actions during the battle with Shuriki and doesn't stand on her way, trying to protect her, whereas Elena lets Gabe set off the mission to find Delgados in "Finding Zuzo."

And here comes season 3! This is the time they finally balance out their friendship and duties. I want to make the biggest emphasis on "Changing of the Guard" because honestly, this is really the peak of their relationship. For example, Gabe's playfulness on Elena's arrival to the recruit admission. This is so much different from "The Curse of El Guapo" when they both were kinda familiar with each other even though it was an official event yet they are not too official either like in the very beginning of the show or in the first half of season 2. They trust each other and let each other do their job without interfering, and this honestly is beautiful (and they still have their fencing lessons!)

The same is shown in "Captain Mateo" and "Crash Course." When it comes to the first one, their relationship was shown from the job perspective mostly, but Elena still tries to comfort Gabe and understand his feelings, whereas Gabe knows that this mission is important to Elena and is ready to hold back in order to help her, even if, well, this whole situation hurt him a lot.

"Crash Course" is more subtle mostly for the reason they barely interacted, but I love the beginning of this episode when Elena refers to Gabe "captain Nuñez" instead of his name. It again shows that they managed to balance their relationship out eventually.

In conclusion of Gabe's relationship with Elena, I want to say that it has been growing mostly in terms of mutual respect and ability to listen to each other. Their occupations have very big impact on them and their relationship, so I think this is the field where they both had to grow to become good friends.

I admit I have much less to say about Gabe and Naomi. But mostly for the reason Elena is the main character, so sure thing her relationships with other characters are more complex. If we take the four amigos dynamics without Elena, the most developed one is Gabe and Mateo because they had an interesting ongoing conflict, whereas Naomi has a much more subtle relationship with both of them (and especially with Mateo).

There were SO many times I talked about Gabe and Naomi’s relationship development, so I'm not even sure what I can add.

Well, they became friends because they both were friends with Elena, and then we saw them teasing each other and generally having fun time together (in Spellbound, Party of a Lifetime, Blockheads, for example) and sharing emotional and sweet moments (Captain Turner Returns and My Fair Naomi). I think the Scepter of Night storyline was the next step of their relationship since they kind of became battle buddies, whereas Elena usually united with Mateo because they both are magical.

"Naomi Knows Best" kinda moves their relationship even further since it was the first (and basically the only) time they fought without Elena and Mateo. Of course, they couldn’t find compromise at first, but by the end of the episode Gabe accepts he was wrong (man this is so difficult for me to say it. My opinion on this episode is so different from others akajansn), which definitely makes their relationship tighter and more polished.

And then, yeah, "Norberg Peace Prize" came. Was it sudden? Yes, I admit it was. But I keep sticking to my opinion of them getting closer during the battles and interacting a lot off-screen. Do I consider them a canon ship? No, I don’t. We got nothing of them in the future episodes, excluding "The Magic Within" and maybe "Captain Mateo" since Naomi was against the decision of making Mateo the captain (she either was biased or just had common sense unlike the majority of the council). We have no idea what Gabe thought of Naomi’s trip, there were several episodes featuring both of them but they didn’t interact up to Coronation Day. It’s just difficult for me to imagine them being a canon ship when it barely was shown so.

And in conclusion of Gabe's relationship with Naomi, I don’t think it changed much. They started as friends and acted like friends for the whole course of the show. Norberg Peace Prize doesn’t make any difference (to me at least), except, yes, they got a bit closer by the end of the show.

Gabe's relationship with both Elena and Naomi are different for many reasons and therefore it developed differently as well. I don’t think he’s much closer to any of them. They all are friends, and when it comes to romance, everyone is up for their own interpretations.

Thank you for the ask!

[glorytoukraine2022]

Very true. I personally never shipped Eleteo, but regardless of which ships people prefer, people need to realize that we, the fans, don’t have a say in the interpersonal relationships of the characters. Many fans seem to believe that because Elena and her friends are openly affectionate with each other means that they are romantically attracted to each other. But as you said, Mateo and Gabe see Elena as a sister. Whereas Mateo sees Carla romantically. Same with Gabe and Naomi.

I love Carla and Victor’s relationship to death, but I also would have loved to see more Carteo moments, given that they are a couple by the end of the series.

Your Carteo drawing is EPI. Not seeing them together more often was definitely a missed opportunity. But I’m still glad they became a couple at the end. Yes, I’m one of the people who believes that all the couples we saw at the end of the the finale were canon. I don’t know why so many people in this fandom think otherwise. I know it was confirmed several times that Elena was never going to get a love interest, but I don’t remember them saying anything against the other characters

People argue otherwise bc they like eleteo , even though Mateo (and Gabe )described himself as her brother. But it also really doesn't help that they barely gave Carla any screen time that didn't have to do with her dad.

[lieutenant-amuel]

What are your favorite Gabeomi moments?

Thank you so much for the ask! And I'm really sorry for the late reply, I totally forgot I had it in my inbox ajahjdjkd.

There's not a lot of Gabaomi moments in the show, so I just can list all of them ×) Anyway, if we speak of something specific:

The Entire "Norberg Peace Prize" Episode.

Missing each other, celebrating the family day together, "someone special in your life", the glances, watching the Norberg lights. Everything about this episode is perfect for Gabaomi.

The Hug In "Naomi Knows Best."

This is so warm and affectionate. I love it.

Dancing.

Each of them, because you can feel the growth of their relationship through them.

Them In "Blockheads."

Because their teasing dynamic is what I live for.

"Captain Turners Returns."

One of the thousand reasons why I will always complain about Naomi's arc in season 3.

Teamwork In "Naomi Knows Best."

The growth.

Naomi's Encouragement In "Coronation Day."

A very minor scene, but I love it.

The Taquitos Scene.

Summarizes their relationship perfectly, and I swear taquitos became their special dish.

[glorytoukraine2022]

Do you read any EoA fanfiction? If so, what are your favorite authors/fanfics?

Yes, I have in the past! My favorite authors are @blueflyingturtleontheway, @a-lilacsong and @lieutenant-amuel. ”Born to Lead” is one of my favorite Gabe fics. And their Gabeomi fics are just as wonderful. @blueflyingturtleontheway also has a wonderful Gabeomi fic called “Off Key, Like your singing?” If you ship Gabeomi, yet also are interested in life during Shuriki’s reign, than that’s the fic for you.

Though my favorite fic by @blueflyingturtleontheway is called “Treasure Hunt.” It’s fun, sweet and everyone is written in character. If you liked seeing Antonia and Ixlan together in the final, than read “Translation“ by @a-lilacsong. I would also recomend “Royal Hospitality”, which gives us insight into The Delgado’ takeover of Cariza and the Delgado family dynamic in general. Again, everyone is in perfect characterization. My favorite though is “The Chaos Codex of Ultimate Doom.” This fic shows Esteban, Elena, Victor and a baby Isabel playing a game together when they were young children. And the irony throughout the fic makes it even more enjoyable:)

As a Carteo shipper, I would recommend “To Sop Being Forbidden” by @lucy-shining-star and A Carla & Mateo Story by @carlaandmateofan.

EDIT: I feel the need to include one more fic: The Adventures of Queen Elena by Livelovelaugh. This takes place post “Coronation Day” and is a fic filled with adventure and romance as budding relationships begin to blossom. The this well written fic has me hanging on my toes at the end of every chapter with an exciting plot slowly, but surely coming to light.

You can find all the fics mentioned here on Ao3, except for “A Carla & Mateo Story“ and “The Adventures of Queen Elena” which are both on Wattpad.

[lieutenant-amuel]

Even though Gabeomi isn’t canon, I still like their relationship growth throughout the series. But I feel like I don’t have a good grasp on their particular relationship. The four amigos in general share a pretty tight knit friendship, and Gabe and Elena share a nice friendship which is well depicted throughout the series, so how did Gabe and Naomi grow closer than Gabe and Elena? How were you able to tell? Where there any key moments?

I personally like to think that the main step of their relationship growth was happening in season 2, especially during the Scepter of Night storyline (they worked together in "The Scepter of Night" and "Song of the Sirenas", while Elena and Mateo were an another duo). I'll agree that it's very subtle, but for me, their teamwork was the reason of them becoming closer to each other, plus they always could interact more off-screen.

"Naomi Knows Best" is also an important episode for them, since they worked together, had disagreements with each other, but eventually came to compromise, which shows the maturity of their relationship.

Amway, these are just my two cents, so anyone can disagree with me and have their own interpretation of their relationship.

[ash91701]

I SHIP THEM TOO omg I don’t like the whole Gabe and Naomi nonsense. Gabe and Elena have more of a development than that. 

Also Mateo and Elena, have more of a friendship vibe soo

When you’re the only one who ships Gabe and Elena

[lieutenant-amuel]

Hi! I know you’re a Gabe fan and a Gabeomi shipper, so I’ve decided you’re the best person to go to for this. I’m a Gabelena shipper, but after seeing Gabeomi at the end of the finale, I want to give it a chance. So I want to know why you like Gabe and Naomi as a couple and what you see in them romantically. To sum it up: take this post as an opportunity to talk about all of your feelings about Gabeomi and why they make a great couple. I’m all ears!

Heya, Anon! Thank you so much for the ask! I feel kinda honored that you decided to ask me about Gabaomi 😅

Well, I'm not sure anything I would say is convincing enough since most of the reasons are pretty subjective ×)

Anyway, let's start!

Similar backstories and destinies.

I love that both Gabe and Naomi are from the ordinary families, but want to achieve something bigger in their lives by working hard. They both faced people who underestimated them (Esteban and Doña Paloma for Naomi, and like the whole Royal Guard for Gabe), but proved they were worthy despite their origins and earned respect.

Similar traits.

Okay. I won't lie that I love Gabaomi mostly for the parallels between them. I just think this is something that helps them to feel free and easy with each other. They both are brave, smart, reasonable, analytical people. Seriously, if Gabe didn't rush in Naomi Knows Best, their team brain (okay, it sounds weird, but okay ×)) would have been able to save Elena, actually.

And I think, if Gabe would have involved in the Rita arc in season 2, he could have teamed up with Naomi, because I'm sure he would have been suspicious of "Rita", too.

And since we're talking about the parallels, I love that both Gabe and Naomi are not magical (well, to be fair, Gabe learns magic now, but still) and their lives are not connected with magic.

"Naomi and I."

I love that Gabe and Naomi are usually work and stay together while Elena and Mateo are with each other. They hold each other's back, fight together, protect each other, and that honestly speaks so much of the trust level they share. And this is much more than cool that they've been doing this for such a long time. Since The Scepter of Night to Coronation Day.

And I love that they're still close to each other even outside the battles, like Naomi choosing Gabe as her olaball teammate in Blockheads and Gabe literally running to join Naomi and Marlena in The Magic Within (in the beginning, after Elena and Mateo defeated Ash, I mean).

Teasing dynamic.

These are just me and my preferences, but I adore the friendship-like dynamic between lovers, and this is really the kind of love I might dream about myself. They're free with each other, they know what to talk about, share the jokes, and have been having a nice relationship like since the day 1. And I really love the idea of Gabe and Naomi having funny nicknames for each other, like El Guapo and Fancy Feet! This is so fitting for them 😍

Slight romance moments.

I love all the sweet scenes they shared together! The scene of Gabe crying of Naomi leaving Avalor in Captain Turner Returns, Naomi calling Gabe "guapo", their snuggle in Song of the Sirenas, Naomi missing Gabe in Snow Place Like Home (okay, this is super slight, but this is still so cute!), and the hugggg!! I can scream constantly about this 😍 Ohhh, and I can't stop thinking about Naomi voting for Gabe in Captain Mateo 😭

And the dances! Seriously, this is possible to write a whole analysis post about how they've been changing through the dancing! The way they were little shy and awkward in My Fair Naomi, free and sweet in The Magic Withing, and confident and passionate in Coronation Day! This is so beautiful!!

They both look tough outside, but they have a soft side, including for each other, and I live for it 💖

THE GLANCES AND CHEERING FOR EACH OTHER.

Okay, like every ship involves the glances, but I just have to mention it! They can look at each other so differently! From the exchanged glances with grin to the sweetest, warmest, full of love and admiration glances what we saw in Norberg Peace Prize!

I love how passionately Naomi cheered for Gabe in The Curse of El Guapo! Of course, Elena and Mateo did too, but she jsut was so happy and excited for him! And those exclaims "Alright! Lieutenant Nuñez!" And the same, but with Gabe, in Giant Steps "Go, Naomi!" 😍

And supporting each other! I know this is not the biggest part of their dynamic, and actually, both Gabe and Naomi had better "comfort/hurt" scenes with other characters, but I absolutely love the scenes of Naomi encouraging Gabe in Coronation Day and the one in Norberg Peace Prize!

NORBERG PEACE PRIZE, BABY!

THIS IS LITERALLY THE ICONIC EPISODE FOR THEM!!! I love every single Gabaomi scene there!! Naomi inviting Gabe to Norberg, Gabe saying they're gonna celebrate the family day together, jealous Naomi, missing each other while they are away (and Gabe's face when he says, "I wish Naomi could be up here to see this with us." 😍😍😍), someone special in your life, Gabe celebrating the family day with Turners, watching the Norberg Lights together exchanging the glances and being near to Naomi's parents 👀! Seriously, this is such a beautiful scene, both visually and emotionally!

Parallels with Naomi's parents.

This is probably the most subjective and senseless thing, but, man, I love it! Seriously, I can totally see the similarities between Gabe and Daniel being brave, adorable dorks with a great love for their families :3 And Naomi definitely took a lot from her mom! Both confident ladies with the spirit of adventures 💖 Just imagine how funny their family could be!

Random headcanons and their possible future:

I can totally imagine Gabe and Naomi having "a relationship at distance" since they both are career people who love their jobs. Despite this fact, they always wait for the time when they can see each other again and then have the warmest reunions (like we already saw in Naomi Knows Best!)

Both Gabe and Naomi are the good dancers. Gabe is a royal guard and a great fencer, so he has a good footwork and can feel the rythm. Naomi could spend the hours of her time dancing Norberg jig with her parents when she was little. Sometimes, Gabe and Naomi just dance together, also remembering their first dance on Naomi's quinceañera.

They love traveling. Naomi spent most of her life in the sea, and Gabe traveled a lot too, visiting other kingdoms to see olaball matches his father played with his team.

Despite the fact Naomi became chancellor, she still arranges the festivals and fairs, and Gabe takes part in organization with a great pleasure, too (this is mostly inspired by The Magic Within episode where they both were the part of the carnaval with Marlena. I just think it makes sense ×))

What comes to having children, I honestly can imagine Naomi and Gabe not having them because of their jobs. But at the same time, I think they would be great and very funny parents! I think they would have a very simple and trusting relationship with their kids, playing and having fun together!

And mentioning Gabe and Naomi's parents, I think Roberto, Blanca, Daniel, and Scarlett would get along perfectly! Roberto and Scarlett are kinda sport people, so I can totally imagine Scarlett teaching Roberto to sail, and Roberto her to play olaball! Daniel and Blanca are calmer people, so they just could talk about their children and admire how much lucky they are to have each other :')

To summarize:

The main reason I love Gabaomi is the similarities between them. I think they have one of the easiest relationships in the show (in meaning, they get along very well) and just feel free being together. They faced the same difficulties achieving their dreams, and it really could help them to understand each other. They fight together, trust each other, have been through some things holding each other's backs. They might not have a lot of the scenes that we could see as typically "romantic", but this is exactly what I love about them. Friendship is very important in love, and these two represent it perfectly 💙💚

Anyway, whoever saw this, feel free to add your reasons! Maybe, I forgot something ×)

[lieutenant-amuel]

Hi! I was just thinking about the possibility for Gabeomi kids, and I just thought of something: since Roberto Nunez has brown eyes, which he passed onto Gabe and Bianca’s eyes are a variant of green (I think), wouldn’t that mean that Gabe has the recessive genes for blue eyes? If he has a child with Naomi, who has blue eyes, due to Bianca, that means that it’s more likely that Gabe and Naomi might have blue eyes, wouldn’t it?

Thank you for the ask!!

Personally, I headcanon that Gabe and Naomi's child has green eyes since both Blanca and Scarlett have them.

Brown, blue, and green eye colours are the basic ones. If we consider the green colour, then it's a recessive trait in relation to the brown, and a dominant to the blue.

Gabe is heterozygous, he has brown eyes, but Blanca does green that means she's homozygous recessive. And Naomi is also homozygous recessive since she has blue eyes (and Scarlett, therefore, is heterozygous).

Green and blue colours belong to different alleles, so their children can't have blue eyes (and, looks like, green ones either... rip Fausto ×))

Hi! I remember reading your Gabeomi headcanons and reading that you don’t believe that Naomi and Gabe will have children because of their jobs. May I ask why?

Honestly, I'm torn at this point, because at the same time, I can and can't imagine them having children.

I think both Gabe and Naomi are kinda career people and have high ambitions to achieve success in their lives. I don't want to say that children interfere with building a career (seriously, my mom has two children and achieved a lot in her life. And at the same, she has been the best mother for me and my sister), but they are the big responsibility, and I don't think Gabe and Naomi are ready to combine the work and family. Not at the beginning of their relationship, at least.

And that's the reason I actually can imagine them having children, but after a few years since their marriage when they would get the stable jobs and maturity. And, honestly, I have a Gabaomi fankid, so in my mind, they definitely will become parents someday :')
