Chapter 3

"Wake up, sleepy heads!" Gladio spoke as he grabbed both boys' shoulder and shaking them gently.

Noctis began to stretch and turned to Prompto with a small sleepy smile that was adorable "Ready to go?"

Prompto looked at the young prince. The smile, the grogginess in his features, the perfect sunset lighting, and Galdin's perfect scenic background.

Snap!

Noctis' eyes widened at the sudden photographer's flash "Wha-hey!"

Prompto just snickered "Hehe. Sorry Noct, the scene was just so perfect. See!" he pushed his camera to Noctis so he could see.

"Damn, Prom!" Noctis admired the picture of not really him but seeing the beauty of great angles and lighting that Prompto was able to see and knew so well that most wouldn't notice. "You make me look good!"

Prompto blushed taking his camera back and putting it back in its case.

"Ahem!" It was Ignis' voice, "You two should get going. I will see to it both of you get on the right ferry safely."

"Oh yes, because I totally don't know the right ferry we should be getting on." Noctis said in his usual sarcastic tone when someone says something that provokes it to come out.

"Attitude Noct." Gladiolus said walking towards a Cup Noodle stand.

Noctis and prompt both step out to go get there suit cases from the back of the regalia. Ignis then guides them up some small steps and onto a long and curved pier.

"Ugh, do we really have to walk this far! I mean who designed this place, you have to go through the restaurant to get to the docks?" Prompto huffed lugging his case as he notices his wheel is broke.

Noctis grunts, teeth clenched "I know." He looks at Prompto's wheel, "You should've told me your wheel was broke. I would've gotten Gladio to help you." Noctis was always concerned for Prompto.

"Its fine, really Noct. I didn't even know." Prompto is holding the handles with both hands and walking backwards at times.

"It most certainly is fine. You will both have plenty of time to relax I presume. Oh, and Noct, please try not to stay up too late and ruin your sleeping schedule." Ignis drills like a mother.

"Welcome to Galdin Quay!" rehearsed lines chimed from a greeter.

"Come on Iggy! It's a carnival! They party, they stay up late, it's what they do!" Noctis says while stopping to make sure Prompto get down with his case alright.

Ignis rubs his temples and guides them through Galdin Quay's restaurant/lobby. They are met with some more steps that the two boys both groan at. When they are finally down, Ignis stops them and hands Noctis his passport.

"You have yours, right?" he asks Prompto.

"Yea of course! Think I'd seriously forget!" Prompto flails his hands in the air to add dramatics.

"Alright. Noct, remember what we talked about, and please, for the love of the Six, do not do anything I wouldn't do."

"Yes Ignis, I remember. I'm not a child you know." Noctis crosses his arms and rolls his eyes.

"Yes, but sometimes you can act like one." Ignis crossing his arms too.

"Are any of you boarding?" a loud voice interrupts them. "If so they are about to leave and you need to board!" A man with silver hair in a black and grey shirt with a green tie reminds them.

"Gotta go Iggy!" Noctis says as he grabs his suit case and begins to walk away.

"Bye Igs!" Thanks for bringing us!" Prompto waves catching up to the raven haired boy.

A muscular arm wraps around Ignis' neck. "You think Noct is finally gonna make a move?" He asks the slightly smaller man with a flirty smile.

"I'm not sure Gladiolus, I do hope they finally stop playing with their feelings even if a relationship will be short lived with Noctis' responsibilities." Ignis pushes his glasses back up.

"Ah, come on Iggy! I remember how many games you played with me before you finally made a move on me!" Gladiolus squeezing Ignis' shoulder. "Then we banged that night."

Ignis was blushing so much he looked like a ripe Lucian tomato at the memory of finally hitting it off with the handsome brute who held him now.

"Hey, maybe Noctis'll get laid on this trip finally!" Gladiolus had chuckled at his own words.

"Gladiolus!" Ignis was beyond shocked at the thought of the prince having sexual actions with his best friend so soon. "He does not move fast like you."

"You wanted it Iggy!" Gladio let go of Ignis and smacked his ass. "Let's get a room, there's no way you're driving at night. Plus I think I might want to relive that night."

Ignis chuckled some "You do almost every night but very well then. Let's go."

They walked back to the lobby further away from protecting Noctis.
