A/N- Hello! I've been in a creative rut lately with this story, but no worries I'm back with another chapter. Please enjoy!

Prompto sat in front of Noctis' desk moving restlessly, tugging at the neck of his shirt. He was wearing an messily tucked in white button up accompanied by a deep red loose tie. He wore light brown dress pants and black dress shoes. Prompto was nervous about the current situation. Yeah, he was the one that asked Noctis for help, but now he was second guessing himself. Noctis sat back comfortably in his office chair across from the blonde. He was leaning back with arms clasped together behind his head while his feet were propped up onto the corner of the desk. He sported a black button up with the top two buttons undone enhancing his strong jaw line and his prominent collar bone; along with this he wore a pair of dark grey dress pants and black dress shoes.

"Light will be here soon to help you to." Prompto grimaced; he could practically hear the smug grin on his friends face. A frown was fixed onto his face as he squirmed in his seat. "It'll be fine Prompto, Light's good at this stuff; you've seen her in action first hand." Noctis assured more seriously.

"Yeah I know. I just really don't want to screw up. I've never really done this formally before." Prompto stared out the window behind Noctis' seat. It was a bit past noon and the sun was smoldering outside. At least Noctis has air conditioning. A door swung open interrupting his thoughts. The two men turned to the door to see a panting Light wearing a peachy colored v-neck t-shirt and baggy light grey sweats that were rolled up mid calf.

"What's the emergency?" Huffing, she wiped away the faint sweat on her forehead that she worked up.

"Prompto needed your help."

"…Really? That's all? I ran all the way here from my apartment."

"Sorry about that, I should've clarified huh? Hold on I'll get you some water." Noctis got out of his seat and headed out the door that was now open due to Light's entrance. The tired woman looked over to the remaining man in the room. Seeing his tense muscles and lack of hyper activeness ever since she entered, she called out to him.

"Prompto, what did you need from me?"

"Sorry Light, see there's this job that I really wanted, but the thing is… I've never had a job interview before. My resume was accepted and the boss called in to set up an interview with me two days from now. I guess I'm a bit uneasy. I usually get jobs through Noctis' or Glad's request. This is the first job that I really want; more than anything."

"Yeah? What is it?

"Remember what you said to me the first time we met at the pub? You said that I would most likely do well as an actor. Since you mentioned it I really started to think about it as a career. I mean, I know I'm the youngest of the group and have the least experience, but I think this is something I can enjoy doing."

"So you got a part in a TV show?"

"No, I wanted to start off a bit smaller. I got a voice acting job for a video game… Well a interview for the job anyways."

"Well if it's you I'm sure you'll do well." Light sighed, giving him an encouraging and delicate smile. Noctis walked back into the room with a tray holding three cups. Each cup had condensation running down the sides as a result of the icy water. Noctis handed one to both Light and Prompto, at the same time placing out coasters on his desk. He resumed the sitting position he was in prior to leaving. Light walked over to the dark haired man placing a hand on his shoulder.

"You do a lot of interviews don't you Noctis? On your father's behalf at the company?"

"Yes'm."

"Okay then, how about we start with a little role play." Gripping his shoulder she looked down at him. "Take the lead Noct." Turning to Prompto she gestured to him to stand up as if he had just walked in. "Before we start…" She inspected his outfit. She reached out to fix his hair and straightened his tie. Her hands then moved to his pants, tucking the shirt in and adjusting it so it didn't hang low. "There, that's the first thing you have to keep in mind. Make sure present yourself with your best foot forward, look clean and organized." She panned her attention back over to Noctis; signaling him to begin the role play as she stood next to Prompto to walk him through.

"Good morning, you must be Prompto. I'm Noctis, the producer and director of the project. Please to meet you." He stood up and placed his left hand on the desk and leaned forward offering his right hand to Prompto for a handshake. The blonde responded by stretching out his hand taking Noctis' hand in his. Light placed her hand onto where their hands met, giving it a gentle squeeze.

"Prompto, give a firm handshake, not to limp, but also not to strong." She then placed a hand on his lower back to straighten it. " Keep a good posture." Her hands then moved to push his chin up a bit. "Look confident, smile." Finally, her hands moved to his shoulder. "And relax." Prompto did as he was told, inhaling deeply to calm his muscles. Giving a beaming smile, Prompto replied to Noctis.

"Morning Noctis, the pleasure is mine." Noctis grinned back and motioned for him to sit down as he did. Noctis took Prompto's resume and skimmed over it quickly.

"Tell me Prompto, what got you into acting?" He looked up to the man in question. Prompto's gaze turned to look down at his lap while playing with his fingers; therefore not meeting his eyes.

"Well… I guess I have always been interested in it, but a friend of mine really pushed me forward to finally pursue it." Light snapped her fingers in from of Prompto's face, causing him to tear his gaze away from his lap and onto the hand in front of him. Light spoke smoothly into his ear.

"Eye contact. Make sure to keep eye contact with him when he's talking to you." On cue, Prompto looked past Light's hand as she lowered them; meeting Noctis' eyes. Noctis nodded slightly as if showing that he was doing the right thing.

"I see. At your old job, what was a typical work day like?" Noctis fired another question. Light was impressed. Noctis held a friendly but superior aura around him, just like a boss would. Noctis' casual posture showed an easygoing attitude, but the way he held his head up high and shoulders broad came as a reminder to Prompto of who was in charge. He was good. Something about it made Noctis ten times more attractive to Light.

"I used to work at a fine arts elementary school; I was a drama teacher there. A day would mainly consist of me working with kids in a comfortable environment. I instructed them in improv, method acting and miming; whether it be one on one or in groups." This time he maintained eye contact as he remembered back to his last employment. Both Noctis and Light noticed the honest look in his eyes as he spoke, although he was still speaking quite fast. Light leaned back down to his ear.

"Keep a comfortable tempo when you speak. If you talk to fast then it gives off an impression that you're anxious or that you are in a hurry to get out of there; to slow then you're employer might think that you're bored or slow." Light informed him. Prompto coughed to clear his throat and then took a sip of water.

"Very good. I would like to ask you one more thing. Why do you want this job?" Prompto breathed in again, giving him a brief moment to think of what to say.

"This job… It just seems like a great opportunity to gain a lot of experience. I was interested in this job because it looked like an enjoyable place where I can learn and really put myself to the test. I want to push myself to the limit, and then be able to break past it with my hard work. I have a gut feeling that this will help me plenty in both my career and my own personal life."

"Well then Prompto, I would like to thank you for coming in and I hope to be able to work with you in the future; whether it be on this project or a different one."

"Thank you sir! I really appreciate having this chance."

A short silence suspended around the group.

"Well done Prompto." Light spoke first.

"Yeah it was pretty solid Prompt." Noctis broke out of his character as he yawned tiredly and stretched. This action lifted Noctis' shirt scarcely, showing off his toned abdomen; this sight did not come unnoticed to Light. Unfortunately for her Noctis peeked out of his right eye just in time to catch her lingering stare. Straightening out his now wrinkle shirt he shot a seductive wink her way; Light looked away in embarrassment.

"What?! That's it?" Prompto dazed. Light sat at the corner of Noctis' desk, closest to Prompto and shrugged.

"This is just a test run Prompto, if anything this is the bare minimum amount of time that you interview would be. I also chose the three most likely questions that they might ask." Noctis answered"

"Job interviews typically last from ten to thirty minutes, but a handful of employers make most of their decisions in the first four minutes. Most often, to employers, appearance plays a major role in whether or not you're hired. It decides up to eighty percent of the final decision before you even get the chance to speak. So when you're real interview comes up you have to remember to be confident, eager and polite. You also have to keep in mind not to slouch or grow stiff. Also dress in a well kept, formal manner. Oh, and knowing you I advise that you don't wear a watch."

"Why's that?" Prompto asked.

"Because you get easily distracted, a watch would only hinder you're outward appearance because if you get anxious then you'll start looking at it, or you might start toying with it; both of these will make you look immature."

"Haha, she's right, you are easily distracted." Noctis laughed.

"Guys!" Prompto whined with a sad pout on his face. This time, both Noctis and Light laughed.

"Don't worry Prompto, you're a charming guy. You're a shoo in for the job." Light comforted.

"Exactly Prompto, that's just the type of person you are." Noctis said truthfully.

"Oh, you guys are the bestest friends ever!" Prompto sprang from his seat and pulled the two into a smothering group hug.

Two days later the exuberant blonde bursted into Noctis' house where Light and Noct were sitting in the living room watching TV.

"Guys! I didn't screw up my interview! And he said he would wanted a voice recording session with me as a test run!" the energetic Prompto gushed.

"Congrats buddy." Noctis praised.

"Congratulations Prompto. That's great news." Light gave her regards.

After the rush of excitement had passed the three went out to throw a celebration for Prompto's success; meeting Gladiolus and Ignis there of course.
