“My heart is beating so fast, feel this.”

Idris could hear Noct’s heartbeat, a rapid staccato within the other’s chest. When Noctis said ‘feel this’ his hand closed over the blind man’s and brought it to rest on his own chest. Idris swallowed hard, unable to breathe suddenly. Feeling the fast pounding of the young prince’s heart beating against his ribcage was... exhilarating.
The blind man’s hands suddenly felt shaky and a cold sweat prickled his skin. He drew closer, as if that heartbeat had enthralled him, and he couldn’t fight it. “N-Noctis,” Idris’s roughened voice stuttered his name. Uncaring, or perhaps still unable to resist, Idris brought his head down to rest over his hand, feeling that quickened heartbeat clearly. He sighed out a soft, desperate sound. His prince, everything he’d devoted his life to. He was here... alive, irrefutably alive under his touch and nothing would take that away from him again.
“Noctis,” he whispered again, that heartbeat still lulling him. “I am yours,” he vowed, his own heart pounding hard and aching with his conviction. “I would die for you, my prince.”
