Lightning's eyes fluttered open. The first thing she saw was that her face was snuggled up to a man's chest who was wearing a black shirt (his new outfit, not the old one xD).
'OMFG? IS THIS GUY A RAPIST?' Was the first thing Lightning thought. She quickly grabbed a pillow and with full force, she hit the so called rapist.
"GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY BED!" She shouted with her eyes closed, somehow not waking up Hope, who slept down stairs.
"WHAT THE HELL, LIGHT!" In an instant, Lightning recognized the voice. She quickly stopped hitting him with the pillow, allowing the man to get up.
"I'm sorry, Noctis. I thought you were a rapist." If you listened closely you could hear a bit of guiltiness in her voice.
"Well it's your fault for leaving your balcony door unlocked." Noctis chuckled.
"SHUT UP!" Lightning started to hit him with the pillow again. Then after a while she pushed him onto the floor.
Noctis groaned. This wasn't getting him anywhere in his plan. An idea hit him, but he'd have to try and not be shy to do it. He slightly turned around and grabbed Lightning's hand making her fall on top of him. Lightning blushed. She tried to get up but Noctis pulled her back down.
"Noctis, let me up!" Noctis shook his head.
Lightning groaned. No matter how many times she would try he would over power her and pull her back down. Noctis was way too strong for her.
"What will it take to make you let me go?" Noctis smirked. His plan was going smooth.
"You have to be my girlfriend." Lightning felt her face redden. She had to be dreaming! Noctis is a prince while Lightning is only a mere L'Cie. It would never work. She'd hurt him in the end, she just knew it.
Noctis knew she was troubled and somehow he hit the core of her problems. He closed his eyes and began to speak.
"Lightning, we can work this out. Just give me one chance to make you happy. I know you're having tough times since your sister turned to crystal and you became a L'Cie…" Noctis paused and opened his eyes when he felt something wet sink through his shirt and touch his skin.
Lightning was actually crying. Noctis put one hand to her face and whipped her tears.
"Lightning, you're too beautiful and strong to cry." The words made her smile just a tad. Noctis continued what he was saying from before.
"No matter what even if you turn into crystal or Cie'th, I will always love you, be there for you, and protect you."
Lightning then started to cry again. Noctis started to panic. Lightning laughed.
"Don't worry…" She whipped her tears away before she continued. "I'm crying tears of joy."
Noctis smiled and took her into a loving embrace as she cried on his shoulder.
He then whispered into her ear. "I love you, Lightning."
