its been a while since i wrote a one shot for lightis, its nice to do it again, even if its short

Lightning sighed as she slouched back in her seat, her head aching, her body sore and uncomfortable with the dress Serah forced her into, a dress she was for the moment, to worn out to take off.

A fact Serah took advantage of.

After a long day at work of signing papers, yelling at rebellious recruits, kicking their butts, and training the rest that actually wanted to learn from her; Lightning came home ready for a nap. She got as far as the door when Serah came out of nowhere and drag her out to the closest clothes store she knew, despite how obviously damn tired she was. Not that Serah cared, ignoring her sister's protests and snarls till the elder finally just gave up and let Serah dress her up, too tired to snarl anymore as her clothes were dropped and a satin red dress with a plated skirt was placed on top of her. Then she was dragged back home, had makeup smudge over her face and was finally left alone with Serah shouting "Have fun!"

Sometimes her own sister was a mystery to her.

Lightning huffed as she leaned her head back on the headrest, staring at the cieling dully. Honestly, what was up with Serah? Snatching her up from out of nowhere and dumping this dress on her. And have fun?

"I'm too tired for this," she grumbled, and didn't have time for this. She was supposed to have napped already so she'd be ready for Noctis-

Oh shit.

Noctis.

He was coming back tonight.

And she was still in the dress!

Shit.

She had to get out of this before he got back and there was still dinner and-

The door opened just as Lightning was up and had taken only a step, both freezing at the sight of the other. Lightning in her red dress, Noctis half way through door, his jacket unbuttoned and tie untied. "Lightning?" he asked.

"Um," she managed out, looking away, her cheeks coloring much to her growing embarrassment. "It was Serah, she came out of nowhere and dragged me off- what are you doing?"

Lighting blinked, watching as Noctis was scrambling on the spot, hurriedly kicking off his shoes and started to wrestle his shirt off, jacket and tie already on the floor, absently insisting. "Serah, dragging, go on I'm listening."

this was inspired by the thought of how would noctis react if he saw lightning in a dress? the original idea was a disney princess dress but i don't even a tired lightning would allow it XD so i guess settle for a simple one
