[mercurio]

i know it's not wrong but that's why it scares me

[kittycaterer]

i know money isnt the reason were together prom
but if you asked id support you without question
were kinda a unit anyway

[mercurio]

i know that it's just

it scares me because i've never had someone like you in my life
you know all my shit and you've seen the ugly sides of me that even i can't bring myself to like
and you still say you'll support me without question
even if i'm stupid and dumb and oblivious to everything
and i hurt myself and i drop out of college and i bring in pets bc i don't want them to have to be alone
like i was
and even when i don't have enough time in a day or i forget to eat on purpose
or have stupid big dreams of a photography studio
and then make you angry when i bring up the memories and stuff
and there's a stupid hole on my wall that you hate with your entire being for some reason

and you're still here

and you don't hate me

it scares me

[kittycaterer]

ok im no good at long-winded speeches but this is where we are now

first of all
theres no side of you thats ugly
youre a human being and itd be hypocritical of me to expect you to just be totally without flaw
you dropped out of college because you were unhappy
theres nothing wrong with that

your dreams arent stupid

my shit is my shit i got mad over the memory thing because
idk
but its not your fault i got mad

yeah the hole in your wall is stupid idk why youre so attached to it
i only hate it because its a privacy thing
im fine with shoving clothes through it and whining just to piss you off

if you need me to sit here and repeat how youve seen me gross
pale
half dead and hooked to a dozen machines
after saving my life
ill do it i wasnt pretty both times i got holed up

im here
i dont hate you
because im your boyfriend
and i would go through this all over again if i had to

[mercurio]

[that's unfair]

you're the best thing that's ever happened to me

[kittycaterer]

[ He’s about to follow up the text with a snarky “you’ve reached my verbal quota for the month”, but Prompto beats him to it with something else.

Boy, is he red as ever right now. ]

just
yknow
doing whats best...

[ He’s embarrassed. ]

[mercurio]

...so
i'll try my hardest not to feel scared about it
about the idea that i got you in my life

[he made this awkward..........]

[kittycaterer]

im always here to reassure
just
maybe not in so many words at once again
my fingers cramped up

[mercurio]

yeah i was kind of surprised at your tl;dr

[....]

can i ask you a dumb question?

[kittycaterer]

i now have arthritis

fire away

[mercurio]

ten years from now
we'll still be together?

[kittycaterer]

id like to think so
theres no one else im interested in

[mercurio]

after ten years people get
you know

a kid and a house and stuff..

[kittycaterer]

and married

[mercurio]

i never saw myself as someone who could fall under the category of "happily married"
but... i think
over time

yeah

[kittycaterer]

[ It’s a good thing he’s by himself in his room. Because Noctis is very red, very flushed. And he’s got that lopsided smile on his face that he gets when he’s giddy.

It’s a weird feeling. ]

i uh
i think so too
if you were to ask me id be into it...
after a few years yea

[mercurio]

you're the ones getting the rings tho
right?

[after a minute, another text message]

"ever by your side"
i think i get it now

[kittycaterer]

[ Noctis remembers that. The promise Prompto had made. It’s meant something to him since he recalled it, and Noctis has found himself making the connections. Prompto swore to stay beside him in that alternate existence, and here he is. Doing the same thing. Fulfilling the same promise.

Prompto says Noctis is the best thing to happen to him; it’s honestly the other way around. ]

think we were an item back then too?

[mercurio]

nah

i think it'd be kind of obvious if we had been
but we were definitely close

[kittycaterer]

guess you have a point
either way
youve always been there
that means a lot

[mercurio]

yeah

[...]

so if the time is ever right
we'll get married

i wanna live long enough to have a whole life with you

[kittycaterer]

[ Happy as he is, the more they talk about long-haul, the more his heart starts to hurt. He want so much for that, to spend the rest of his life with his best friend.

But he’s lucky he even made it to age 21... ]

me too
im
im gonna do my best to make it that far

[mercurio]

we will
i'm not letting you go anywhere else but there

[kittycaterer]

bust each others balls about our health until we die?

[mercurio]

that's depressing
but yeah
basically
