( yeah. first. whatever this is, because he's convinced there has been nothing before it that could have even come close to the way noctis can make his stomach tighten with just a look, whether he's conscious of it or not, the way his heart trips over itself and his breath catches in the back of his throat whenever they're close like this –
well. they've never been close like this but that's just one more of those firsts, one of the smallest things that leaves him with the anticipation of what might come next, if he'll be pulled in close or pushed away, if he'd somehow managed to overstep their collective ( albeit blurred ) boundaries by taking the smallest liberties. closing the distance between them.
( and here he is, settled into the other's lap as though he'd never been anywhere else, warm and comfortable and all too real as his arms slide over noct's shoulders, fingers linking together behind his head as he hums out a small sound at that yeah he gets in return. it isn't much, but it doesn't have to be, because it's always been the little things between them that have made the biggest impact. )
lips against his jaw, and his head tilts to offer a little more should the other push a little further, a shaky but relieved breath pushing out of him as he turns back toward the line of that nipping mouth, catches it with his own, bolder by degrees. ) Yeah. ( he echoes, a natural mimic, voice still soft and almost delicate around the edges as he kisses him. sweet, grateful, reverent –
everything owed to him by noct's presence alone. )
