"What? Why? Did you stop it? Did dad? Your mom?" Noct asks very curious to what had happened, his father seemed so adamant about it happening.
"Did you want to get married?" She ask instead, worried about his reaction. He didn't seem happy like she thought he would. Maybe this was not as easy as she thought it would be initially.
But lucky for her Noctis isn't a graceful person, "No." He shakes his head immediately. Luna smiles again, very glad to hear that. She didn't know what would have happened if his answer was something else. "I'm just wondering. Did my dad let it go that easy?" Noctis asks with one eyebrow of his turning up curiously, but it's hidden by his growing fringe.
"Yes. I told him the truth. But it must be kept secret. I'm getting married to someone else. So I was told to come in person and tell the king. I then told your father I would tell you." She smiles as she explains.
"So, we aren't getting married." Noct says to make sure.
"No we are not, at least not to each other. I am but you are not."
"You came all the way to tell us that?" Noct says taking a drink himself, ignoring another one of Ignis' glares being pointed at him.
"Well yes, but I thought since I'm here I should enjoy myself. Also I haven't told the king but I was wondering, for my wedding would you be on my side. I don't have many personal friends, and the one I do have I'm marrying." She says, the smile on her face not once fading away.
"Sure. I don't mind." Noct shrugs.
"No class." Ignis mutters so Noct can hear but Luna did to. "I'll bring some snack." Ignis tells them, walking away. Wanting to give them some alone time as friends.
"Then I'll send you an invite. Also I would like you to come to my engagement party. You and your friends. Ignis, Gladio and even Prompto."
"Sure. I'll go but I'll have to talk to the other three."
"Then I'll also send an invite to that too. Now let's talk," she says, Noct looking up at her, "I would like to meet your son so where is your baby?" She asks looking around. Noct chokes on his tea.
"How do you know?" He almost shouts but doesn't as he coughs a lung out.
"Of course I know." She says, head held high. "I've even got some very bad looking pictures thanks to Pryna. So who is the mother and where is the little baby?" She asks smiling.
"Prompto is his mom and Ignis said they are at the doctors."
"Are they okay?" She asks worried.
"Yeah, just a monthly check up. So I've been told." Noct answers.
"So Prompto is the mother." Luna says. Then she starts laughing, Noct just stares at her like she's gone crazy. He looks around to make sure he's not going crazy. What made her laugh like a maniac?
"I have to talk to her face to face. I always have wanted to since our letters." Luna says wiping away her tear like the graceful princess she is. She knew she asked her to become friends with Noct but she didn't tell her to fall in love with him. But still, as long as they are happy together, that's all that matters.
"You know Prompto?" Noct asks shocked.
"She never told you? We exchanged letter, similar to when we were young. But I never meet her, I only knew her thanks to this," she pulls out a small yellow handkerchief. "Give this to her for me." Noct reaches forward to grab it but last minute Luna pulls away. "On second thought I'll give it to her myself." Luna smiles putting it away. "But do tell her that I would like some girl time with her. I have to thank her." Luna smiles down into the half empty cup of tea. She looks back up to Noctis. "Now let's talk about this baby."
"Woah!" Noctis turns his head along with Luna to see Ignis trying to balance the tray of snacks. Which makes them both raise one eyebrow curiously, Ignis can be a ninja and not drop anything. So what is with his seemingly sudden clumsiness. He stands straight and glares at Noct, which he isn't surprised about anymore. "Noct, why would you tell her?"
"What?" Noct looks shocked and hurt by the accusation. "I didn't tell her it was her oracleness." Noct says pointing at Luna who only let out a giggle.
"He's right. He didn't tell me. I knew for a while. I got a vision about it when I first met Sol." She smiles.
"Sol?"
"My beloved." She smiles. "You'll meet her soon."
They talk for a while longer, eating their snacks. She enjoyed sitting and talking with Noct and Ignis. It was fun, but she left when she really started to feel tired. All that traveling catching up to her.
So she left, saying goodbye kindly like always. When in her room she changed and went to sleep. Hopefully she will meet the baby and Prompto herself.
Prompto mutters under her breath, "come on stupid door, stay open." She says trying to get herself in while carrying Astrum, his diaper bag, and three bags of groceries. She was just mostly using her feet and trying to balance everything in her arms. Then she uses her butt to keep the door open as she slide in. She knows she looks weird but at least no one is here. "Almost there." She mutters to herself, tongue sticking out as she concentrate.
"Prompto?!" she looks up to see Ignis and Noct standing there. Her face lights up like a christmas tree.
"Oh, hello. You both are here... now." She says slowly.
"Here let me help." Ignis says walking up to Prompto, who just stands there not knowing how he'll help. Is he going to take Astrum or the bags? She watches as he carefully takes the bags.
"Is this yours too?" Noct asks, lifting a large duffel bag that was set on the floor.
"Oh yeah. I needed to get some more things." She grins at him as she moves Astrum to carefully sit on her hip.
"What did you need to get?" Noct wonders.
"Um... personal stuff and some more things for Astrum." She answers walking in behind Ignis.
The advisor clears his throat. "May I ask what you plan to do with all these?" he wonders.
"Oh, I thought I'd cook dinner for tonight as a thank you for letting me stay here." She says smiling as she set down Astrums diaper bag on the kitchen table. "If that's okay." She says looking at Ignis and Noct uncertain. Noct looks at Ignis who gave a look at Prompto with so much care and love.
"I would like some." Ignis says. Prompto beams at him.
"I'll get Astrum changed then starting cooking." She smiles at him.
"Are you okay Prom?" Noct wonders staring at her.
"Yeah, why?" She says walking into the living room with Astrums' diaper bag.
"You look like you're hiding something."
"I'm not-" Prompto pauses to look at them.
"Prompto." Ignis says sternly. Prompto pouts at getting caught. How do they always know?
"I went to my apartment and... well it doesn't look good."
"What happened?" Noct asks getting close to the couch, not paying attention to Prompto changing Astrums diaper.
"It seems like someone, I don't know if it's the same people or person who broke into my place but... one of the officers was shot in my apartment." She says sullenly, her full attention on putting a clean diaper on Astrum.
"That's not all is it?" Noct asks. Prompto looks up at him, a pout on her face. How could he tell? She looks down to put on his pants.
"My landlord she... wasn't happy that the police were around my apartment for two different reason so..." Prompto trails off.
"She didn't kick you out?" Noct asks worried.
"She did. I have a month to find a new place. And a part time job until the diner opens again. I..." She takes a deep breath. She can't freak out with Astrum in front of her.
"Hey it'll be okay." Noct says placing a hand on her shoulder. Prompto doesn't answer but she does nod.
For now she will focus on diner as her thanks to them both. That's the only thing she could do right now.
