For days, Prompto would watch Noctis make the origami cranes and from time to time he'd try it out for himself, but all he'd accomplish was paper cuts and crumpled paper.
After a few weeks –Prompto didn't keep count- Noctis finished all one thousand cranes and hung them near his bedroom window.
"So, did your wish come true yet?"
"Not yet."
Every other day, Prompto would ask if his friend's wish came true, but ever day it would be the same answer.
The blond sighed before ruffling Noctis' hair, "So it didn't come true yet? You know, you can't rely on paper cranes to do the work!"
Noctis looked like he was going to cry for a moment but it went away just as fast as it came. "It didn't come true, but it will."
"Yeah!" Prompto grinned, oblivious to Noctis' disappointment, "Stella invited us to go to the beach! I said you were coming already."
Suddenly he heard a choke come from the other and laughed. "O-oi Noctis are you alright?"
"You what!"
Prompto raised his eyebrow in confusion, "It'll be fun! You enjoyed the beach the last time right?" He couldn't see what was wrong.
It took all of Noctis' willpower to stop his blush from rising and the words, 'That trip was before I fell in love with you,' from coming out of his mouth.
"If you don't come I'll pack your things and drag you there anyways!"
"…Fine," Noctis agreed reluctantly. This trip was going to be a nightmare, though he absolutely loved the excited look on Prompto's face.
I just want to kiss him…
xox
After two awkward hours of sitting on Prompto's lap, -Stella had invited her friends so the car was crowded- they finally arrived at the beach. Noctis was more than happy to get out of the stuffy car, but he really would miss being on Prompto's lap.
When the blond noticed that Noctis was squinting in the sunlight he shook his head and skipped over to him, "You forgot your sunglasses? Here, use mine."
The midnight color haired male bit his lip as he felt Prompto's gentle fingers brush past his face as he put on the sunglasses.
"I could have put on the sunglasses myself you know!"
"I know, but isn't it more romantic like this?"
This time, Noctis couldn't hold down a blush, "…What!"
Prompto grinned and dug through his bag before bringing a familiar book out, "You know Noctis…if you're going to have a diary, at least have a label saying it's a diary… or a lock."
Noctis blushed and chased Prompto, laughter ringing through the air. Suddenly, the shotgun wielder stopped and turned his head around, pressing his lips against Noctis'.
"Did your wish come true yet?"
"Not yet."
Another kiss. "I love you."
"I love you too." A hug.
"Now?"
Two smiles and a nod, "Yes, now."
No one went near their bedroom that night.
