The Photo Hut - Thursday

Unlike last Thursday, this Thursday seemed to be back to its usual quiet day and so Liz finalised the guest list for Prompto’s party so she could send it to Summer that morning and once she had done that, she started finishing off some of the admin work that she didn’t get to on Tuesday.

Once she had caught up on her paperwork, she decided to get ahead start on the monthly financial report, starting it early had worked out rather well last month and she wanted to be able to do that again this month.

"Water." Oh, by now, Liz should definitely know how this went, Prompto coming downstairs to present her with the reminder for hydration, followed by quickly by the promise of food. It was just a little bit later than usual, because someone had gotten a little overly ambitious in his attempts to follow another recipe from online and it wound up being much more of a struggle than expected, but he came out on top in the end, even if they didn't look nearly as nice as they did in the picture. "Lunch."

And, that taken care of, he could get to the important part, which was leaning forward over the counter on his elbows and fixing Liz with a grin.

"Hi."

Liz was definitely always grateful for the reminder since some days she could go quite a bit before she remembered that hydration was important and she turned away from the computer to accept both the water and lunch.

“Hi,” she smiled shyly up at him, “I’ve missed you,” she added.

Well, now, that was a good way to instantly make Prompto's smile widen and beam, as he pushed himself up on the counter enough to very awkwardly but very successfully bring him close enough to give her a kiss of appreciation.

"I've missed you, too," he added, once he settled back into a less awkward position, and continued beaming at her. Because, clearly, it had been so long since that morning. Agonizingly long, truly. So long, in fact, that as he settled and looked at Liz, he decided that one kiss was clearly not enough, and pushed himself over again and lingered, despite the awkwardness of it, for a little while longer for a few more.

Then settled back again, looking terribly pleased with himself before asking, "How's it going? You been busy? You look busy. Maybe I should go...."

He trailed off like he was going to pull away and start doing just that, but was clearly in no rush to actually follow through with that.

Liz definitely appreciated all those kisses, taking the time to savour them because it had definitely been so long since they had last seen each other.

“No, stay,” and that would be Liz looking up at him with pleading eyes and then a hand reaching out to try and stop him leaving if it did look like he would follow through with that, “please … I’m never too busy for you,” she added shyly.

"Well," said Prompto, feeling a little bad for joking now, but he wouldn't deny that there was was a part if him that was glad for that response, "if you're sure..."

He slipped easily back into his lean on the counter, taking Liz's outstreched hand in both of his and giving her another grin as he planted a kiss on it, too. "I guess I could stick around for a bit."

Even though Liz had been pretty sure he had been joking about leaving, she still felt relieved and smiled brightly as he took her hands in his and kissed it, “I'm definitely sure,” she assured him with a smile as she looked up at him shyly, "I would miss you if you left," she added.

"And we definitely can't have that," said Prompto, much softer now, smile gone apologetic, as he gave her hand a squeeze.

There'd already been way too much of that.

And lest he find himself inadvertently stumbling into another spiral of guilt and shame, he squeezed Liz's hand one more time before he said, "I hope you like lunch. It doesn't look pretty, but it should taste okay. I definitely need to stick to more simple things, I think."

Ignis Scientia, he was not.

Liz smiled softly, enjoying the feel of the hand squeeze.

“It looks amazing,” she told him as she had a look at the lunch Prompto had prepared for her, “thank you for making lunch for me, I can’t wait to try it,”

"Then I shouldn't make you wait," Prompto said with a soft smile. "Good thing I brought enough down for two....er, well," he amended with a sheepish laugh, "three, I guess. So we can definitely have lunch together."

Liz giggled at that, “that sounds wonderful, I’d love to have lunch together,” she said fondly, her spare hand going to her bump and resting it there at the mention of the three of them having lunch.

"I think I did okay with this one, too," Prompto proudly informed her. "Might even have the kitchen cleaned up from the effort by the time you're done down here."

That was a very big might.

"I mean, I'm not Iggy or Dr. Lecter," he added with a chuckle, "but at least I'm not a Gladio."

It would be nothing but Cup Noodles^TM for daaaaays.

“Well I think this deserves a reward,” Liz smiled brightly as she leaned in for a kiss. Did she mean the reward was that he wasn’t a Gladio or that it was going to be for the kitchen that may or may not be clean?

It was hard to say but Liz wasn’t going to turn down the chance to kiss Prompto.

Ah, well, did the reason for the kiss really matter? If you asked Prompto....well, it kind of did. He'd certainly want to know what it was that inspired such a reward, just so that he could ensure that he did more of it.

But for now, he was leaning as much as he could so Liz wouldn't have to lean in too much to meet her with that kiss and drag it out for a while.

Until he pulled back, just a little, just enough to grin and comment, "You know, for someone who allegedly can't wait to to try it, you sure are taking your time getting to it.

"Not a complaint," he added, with another kiss in between, "by the way."

It honestly was probably a bit of both knowing Liz as she blushed bright red when they pulled apart slightly.

She looked up at Prompto happily, “well I’m glad it’s not a complaint because I have a lot more rewards to give still,” she said shyly, “unless you would rather wait until after lunch?” she added, her blush deepening.
