Chapter 3

He felt his feet moving as he followed Ignis out of the school and towards the others car. He felt his body move to sit in the passenger seat and watched as building after building past by as they made their way to the castle. He felt his body start to shake the closer they got to Noctis. He felt the tears start to fall from his eyes as he thought about the coming rejection and pain he was about to go through. He felt as Ignis places a hand over his as they pulled up to the castle and the car parked. He felt his chest tighten as Ignis got out of the drivers side and walked around to open the door for him. He felt as fear passed through every inch of his body and he shook his head no.

"I can't do this. I can't talk to him and tell him about this right now, I just can't." He said holding his stomach and feeling like he was about to get sick.

"Prompto you are one of the bravest people I know. You can tell him. You have to. You need to get it over with now, he deserves to know." Ignis said reaching a hand out for Prompto to take. He did and was helped out of the car and led towards the castle doors, the whole time Ignis continued to hold his hand.

He felt his hand come up and clench the knocker and hit it against the door. He felt as his pulse raced as he saw the door begin to open and the door man stood there staring at him. He felt the vomit begin to rise from his stomach as he tried to flee. He felt Ignis hand tighten on his and hold him in place.

"We are here to see the prince." Ignis stated and then they were led inside and told where to find the prince. He was pulled along the halls by Ignis until they reached Noctis room. He saw Ignis knock on the door and wanted nothing more than to flee. The door opened and the smile that was on Noctis face dropped when he saw Prompto and then anger shone in his eyes when he saw his and Ignis hands intertwined.

"Leave now." Noctis said before trying to shut his door but Ignis stopped it with his hand.

"Prompto needs to speak with you and it is important. You need to sit down with him and talk now or I will get your father and make him make you." Ignis stated making Prompto shake his head.

"We don't need him do we Noct?" He heard himself saying.

"Don't call me that." Noctis snapped before walking into his room and sitting on the bed. "Well tell me what you need to and get out."

"I don't understand why you hate me so much. Where all this anger is coming from. I can't do this Iggy." Prompto said as he went to the door but felt himself being pushed into a seat instead.

"You have to Prom and you know it. Now Noctis grow up and listen to him and stop being an ass." Ignis stated as he walked to the door and leaned against it, not leaving and keep his promise to be there for Prompto during this time.

"Noctis can you please just tell me first why you dont want anything to do with me now?" Prompto asked and waited.

"You know why Prompto." Noctis snapped.

"No I don't. You are the one to drag me to that room that night. You are the one that pushed me on the bed and jumped me. You are the one who fucked and left me. You are the one to ignore me and push me out of your life. If anyone is allowed to be angry and upset it is me. I didn't do anything wrong." Prompto snapped and was surprised he could say all that to the prince and not really be afraid.

"How could you let me do that with you. Why would you let me fuck you when you know what I have to do. What my father has planned for me. How could you let me when you know I'm not that way." Noctis stated. Prompto didn't know how to respond to that, it hurt it really did.

"I don't know what to say. Except I have loved you for so long and I just couldn't say no to you that night. If I had known what would happen after I wouldn't have let you. Everything is ruined. You hate me, the only person to speak to me in weeks is Ignis, I'm so thankful for that. Then I find out I am pregnant and I am so scared." He closed his mouth fast realizing what he had just said. He didn't mean for it to come out like that. He was going to go slowly and get there in there end. He saw the anger flash in the Prince eyes and saw Ignis sprint over and stand in front of him. He knew the prince was angry. He saw his hands glow with the magic that flowed in them and he knew Ignis was afraid of what would happen.

"You are lying. There is no way you could be pregnant with my child." Noctis said as he started to pace the room.

"I'm sorry it came out like that but I am." Prompto held his hand out to Ignis and the other knew what he wanted. He felt the paper placed in his hand and he opened it. He handed it to Noctis and watched as the prince read the page over and over. He saw him fall back onto the bed and just stare at the words on the page.

"You are pregnant. Why did you never tell any of us you were a carrier?" Noctis looked at him.

"I was afraid. I hated being different and you three never treated me differently but I was afraid you would if you knew." Prompto replied.

"I dont really know how to respond. I need to tell my father. He has to know. I think you need to leave and give me some time. I dont know what I can do right now." Noctis left his room then and Prompto didn't know what to do.

"Let's go before he has a chance to tell the king. I don't want to be here when that happens." Ignis stated.

"I guess." Prompto said slightly in shock.

The next thing he knew he was back at his house and sitting on his couch with Ignis next to him. The shock was wearing off and he felt like he was about to throw up.

"Are you alright now Prompto. You were scaring me for a while." Ignis stated.

"I will be, I think. I'm just afraid of what the king will have me do now." Prompto admitted.

"I am still here for you no matter what you choose. The king can't make you do anything you don't want to do. You are the carrier, you have protection even from the king. If you want to keep this child you can and I will help you. I will always be here for you Prompto." He couldn't help it. Ignis had been so sweet and kind and understanding he leaned over and kissed the other and he had to admit he didn't hate it.

"Prompto no." He heard Ignis say as he pulled away and he suddenly felt ashamed once again for his feelings. "You know I would give anything to be with you like this but you know I can't allow that until you have everything figured out with Noctis. You love him and you always have and I know he loves you to he just wont admit it until he gets his fathers approval. I dont want to be the one in the way when he finally realizes he doesn't need that. Please don't be upset." Ignis said holding Prompto's face in his hands and wiping tears that slowly went down his cheeks.

"Thank you Ignis. Thank you so much for being here for me. I know I can always count on you. Can we just forget this happened and watch a movie and lay down for a bit. I'm tired but want you here. Just hold me please." Prompto asked and Ignis agreed, he couldn't let the opportunity pass to be able to hold the other.

They moved around on the couch, Ignis near the back and Prompto in front of him with Ignis arms tightly holding on to him. Just as the movie started Prompto began to doze off and just after he fell asleep his front door opened, making Ignis jump and have his eyes concect with a very upset prince.
