week 7; confess

[elemancy]

[it's that time again!

time for noct to avoid going back to his room and knock on milla's door... though he has a bit more of an agenda today. things he needs to do, people he needs to see.

the feeling of foreboding is too strong for him to ignore in every way.]

...Hey, it's me again.

Comments

[elemancy]

[it's a pretty good answer, in that it really doesn't leave him much room to doubt. which is why he can respond quietly, but with a light enough tone.]

Guess that's my turn to take it as a compliment.

[considering he wasn't expecting reciprocation at all.]

Well, maybe not "I guess." Pretty high compliment from a deity, for sure.

[perhaps one of the highest, considering she's not just the lord of spirits, but she's smart and beautiful and incredibly strong. his own heart is definitely racing from how thrilling it is, so noct will shift to reach up for milla's hand, guiding it over his chest so she can feel that much for herself. it could probably jump right out of his chest, in all honesty.]

[thatsthespirit]

As you should.

[her fingers curl against his chest, palm pressed over his rapidly beating heart, and he'll feel a slight push from the arm around his neck as she tries to draw him in for another kiss]

[enough talking, more kissing, they've only got so much time here gosh!!]

[elemancy]

[okay, okay, he gets the hint!

it's all still a bit overwhelming, and maybe that's why he breaks to speak, but if milla wants more kisses? well...

more kisses she'll get, and it doesn't seem like noctis is very interested in holding back too much for her sake despite the smaller strides he's been taking to get there. but kissing milla is something that's fun and thrills him—which, after everything in the last few weeks, is nothing short of a miracle.

she'll have to be the one to initiate the break for air this time, because her encouragements do seem to push noctis in the right direction.]
