` promise. ’ :)

different ways to say i love you  //  @galetide  // selectively accepting 

      THE  SKY  IS  CLEAR  AT  their  campground  in  the  morning .  it’s  a  nice  change  from  all  the  rain  &  dreary  skies  they’ve  been  getting  in  the  last  couple  of  days .  noctis  &  his  companions  have  taken  the  change  in  weather  as  a  sign  to  pack  up  &  move  on  &  kairi  takes  it  as  a  sign  that  she  needs  to  finally  head  on  her  own  path .  their  company  has  been  enjoyable .  in  fact  it’s  been  a  great  comfort  greater  than  she  can  describe .  but  they  still  have  responsibilities  to  attend  to  —  &  so  does  kairi .

      IT’S  FAIRLY  EASY  TO  GET  everything  packed  up  in  camp .  there’s  really  not  much  there  to  begin  with  &  (  most  )  of  the  boys  are  pretty  efficient  at  packing  things  up  when  they  want  to  be .  kairi  does  her  best  to  help  as  well  but  they  shoo  her  away  every  time ,  leaving  her  to  sit  on  a  tree  stump  by  herself  as  she  watches  them  work .  

      WHEN  THE  TIME  COMES  for  them  to  seperate ,  kairi  makes  sure  to  say  goodbye  to  each  &  every  one  of  the  boys  who’d  made  her  stay  so  enjoyable ,  giving  them  hugs ,  kisses  &  other  displays  of  affection .  she  makes  it  to  noctis  last ,  a  sort  of  bittersweet  smile  on  her  face  as  she  approaches  him .  

      WHEN  SHE  REACHES  THE  PRINCE  she  wraps  her  arms  around  him  in  a  tight  hug ,  squeezing  him  before  &  raising  herself  up  on  her  tiptoes  to  press  a  soft  peck  to  his  cheek .  he  looks  slightly  bashful  at  the  affection ,  holding  a  hand  to  his  cheek  as  she  pulls  away .  her  smile  widens  in  amusement  as  she  brings  her  hands  to  her  sides ,  a  sort  of  lingering  presence  about  her .  she  doesn’t  know  why  she  feels  the  need  to  dawdle  —  perhaps  she’s  just  not  ready  to  say  goodbye  yet .

      SHE  TEETERS  SLIGHTLY  ON  the  balls  &  heels  of  her  feet ,  not  even  hiding  that  she’s  stalling  now . ❛    so  —  you’re  moving  on  now ?    ❜  he  seems  to  know  what  she’s  doing  &  cracks  an  amused  smile  before  answering  with  simple ,  “    yes .    ”  kairi’s  not  finished  however  she  still  has  more  things  to  say  —  questions  to  ask .  ❛    it’s  dangerous  out  there ,  isn’t  it .  but  you’ll  all  make  sure  to  stay  safe  right  ?    ❜

      THE  PRINCE’S  SMILE  FALTERS  slightly  at  her  question  before  returning  in  a  different ,  more  softer  form .  “    promise .    ”  he  says  gently  &  kairi  almost  believes  him .  nevertheless  she  reaches  her  hand  forth ,  sticking  her  pinky  out  to  him  &  saying ,  ❛    pinky  promise ?    ❜  noctis  laughs  again  but  complies  as  he  latches  on  to  her  pinky  with  his  larger  one  &  shakes  “    yeah ,  pinky  promise .    ”

❝ Er, yeah ? ❞

Was it really that big of a surprise that he had a motorcycle ? The way Noctis had reacted, you’d think he said he could fly ! Rubbing the back of his neck, his blue gaze would drift off to the side. Tapping a dirtied boot on the ground, he thought that maybe it was surprising he had a motorcycle. He was covered in dirt and mud, like usual. Glancing back at the prince, he would offer him an uncertain smile.

❝ You... Wanna see it ? ❞

@galetide​ . 

the lights are off because the contrast makes the tv seem a little bit brighter & the weight of sleeplessness through the night is heavy on his eyelids. the blue screen is practically stinging at this point, but his eyes only water in blinked - away exhaustion. there’s an overwhelming atmosphere that sits heavy between them because the game is paused & no words have been spoken for approximately thirty minutes -- well, more like five, but it feels like thirty. prompto would pace if he could, maneuver around to ease the anxious tension that builds up within his bones, beneath his flesh, threatening to unleash at any moment. fingers dance at his wrists & he finds himself pulling at the wristband that secures some strange mysterious detail of his being that even he can’t make proper sense of. 

noctis looks tired. well, noctis always looks tired, but this time it’s different. like he’s been trying to keep himself up for hours, & he knows he has. they both have. maybe not for the for the same reasons, but prompto just enjoys the company. he tries to savor every last moment of time that someone might spare on him because he never knows what minute will be the last. speaking of minutes, the clock is still ticking, seconds chasing minutes, not yet caught to hours. his heart is beating & he can’t tell if it’s because of his nerves, his indistinguishable crush, or the crushing weight of the two combined. though, he knows it’s likely the latter, despite how he might wish it the most former. sweat beads up on his neck beneath his collar because he’s yet to remove his uniform, tie still clung about his shirt, fastened, & a little disheveled. he peers down into his lap, & it’s like the silence between them is screaming. gotta say something. gotta fill the gaps of intrusive nothingness & intrusive everything all at once.

                                     ❝    you , uh  .  .  .  youu  .  .  .      okay there buddy ? ❞  

he thinks it best to offer to sleep but the words refuse to come out because he fears the loss of company & the companionship of solitude. the controller between them sets them apart.

holds hand

     oh, for me...?  while one hand interlocks with the one gifted to him,  sho’s free hand lays gently over his own heart, cheeks flushed red and grin wide. with a wink and a light-hearted chuckle, he laces their fingers together and then pulls noctis’ held hand up to his mouth, leaving a gift of his own -- a kiss ! 

     “ tit for tat, hold for kiss! ”
