[ He takes the shot, walking over to catch up with him. Noctis holds his phone over to Prompto to show him. ]
Always.
[ Because he’s so goddamn cute. Noctis turns the phone over to go ahead and save it before shoving it back in his pocket. It’s then that he reaches for Prompto’s hand, seeking to hold it so they can walk together. ]
[ Noctis laugh, at first, to Prompto’s little joke. Because yes, he’s very attractive so it makes se—
Wait.
Noctis’ eyes widen a touch when he hears that last part. The “l” word peeking in all clever-like while Prompto delightfully hums the word and swings their hands together. Like it’s easy. Genuine. And Noctis feels his stomach flutter against his will and spark something in his chest. Does Prompto love him? Is it too soon to say it? Because he certainly feels the same way.
Noctis’ brain runs a mile a second and he starts to feel nervous to respond. His hand twitches and he opens his mouth to say something, but he disappears into a flash of blue. Leaving a glowing hologram of himself as he disappears into... ]
—!
[ Noctis is suddenly surrounded by deep blue and black, coldness surrounding him and suspending him in something heavy until he realizes he’s fucking under water.
Noctis frantically swims to the top, gasping for air and splashing about. Because he’s ridiculously shocked and confused. ]
[thankfully, noctis didn't launch himself into the middle of the ocean. prompto hesitates a moment, but goes forward into the water, it only reaching up to his chest when he reaches noctis]
[it's fucking freezing]
[holding him the right way up, prompto tries pulling him back to the shore]
[ He can swim, thankfully, but he at least realizes his feet are touching the ground and he’s no longer submerged. But the sudden snap of where he is dawns on him, and that usual sick feeling comes right back when he realizes what happened. But Prompto has him and is dragging him to shore before he can move.
And thank the gods for that, because he’s usually too confused to act for a moment. Noctis unconsciously clings to Prompto as they wade their way back, and all he can seem to focus on is how cold he is over how sick he feels. ]
Hhh—
F-f-f-Fuck, I’m s-s-s-so over this.
[ Noctis is shivering, both of them dripping wet as he keeps holding on to Prompto. Once they’re back on shore, he bends over, hands on his knees to catch his breath and stop himself from puking. ]
[ Fuck, that is so embarrassing. This is so embarrassing. Noctis is standing at the shore with his hands to his knees, sopping wet and cold, while dry-heaving into the water.
Deep breath, Caelum, deep breath. The nausea is pretty strong for a good while until it finally passes, and Noctis manages to avoid throwing up on his first date.
He stands up straight, exhaling heavily. ]
Hoo, okay, I'm g-g-good. Th-Thanks...
[ He wraps his arms around himself as he walks over to Prompto, reaching a shivering hand for him. ]
L-Let's change first, alright? B-B-Back at my place. Then mall.
