Prompto’s heart was pounding. Like, really really pounding. He wondered, somewhere distantly, if he was going to faint. That would be just his luck, wouldn’t it? To finally get exactly what he’d always wanted only to fall unconscious before he could get it.
Cindy had asked him out on, well, not a date. This was definitely not a date as he kept telling himself over and over again to try to keep himself from going into full on cardiac arrest. After they’d made all their criminal plans to save their friends, it was just a matter of waiting for the right time to pull it off. Which left them with some time in the worst city on the planet. That was when Cindy had asked him to…to…
To go somewhere. Alone. Just the two of them. Which was not a date.
Was it?
Of course, Prompto got there over an hour early. They were supposed to meet at this resort place so they weren’t seen together so much in the city, and the whole train ride there, Prompto had hardly been able to think. Once he got there, he had to admit, he was almost distracted. There were tons of people, lots of smiles, and skaters doing circles on the ice. The mountains were beautiful glistening as they were with snow and ice beneath the sun and a clear blue sky. It was all enough that Prompto couldn’t help but take out his camera and snap a few pics and it almost distracted him.
Almost.
But no matter how many pictures he took, no matter how many people there were, no matter how much the smells from the market stalls made his mouth water, he couldn’t stop the constant pounding of his aching heart. Cindy would be here. Cindy would be here soon. For him. Because she’d asked him out. Probably a pity thing after what had happened with Alex, but still. He’d take a pity date. Which this wasn’t because it wasn’t a date until you called it one. He’d take a pity…outing. Yeah, that was it. Because he was not a man of dignity, Prompto. And if it meant he got to spend time with Cindy.
His Goddess. His Muse. If Prompto had known any prayers to the Astrals, he’d have been on his knees begging them not to let him mess this one up. Once, just once, he would have begged, please let him be cool.
A couple walked past him, both sipping cups of steaming mulled wine. Prompto slid his hands in his coat pockets and retreated further into its warmth. He wasn’t dressed any special way, just in his coat and hat for winter, the same outfit that had saved his freezing butt in Niflheim. He hoped Cindy liked it. He hadn’t had time to go buy something better. She’d look gorgeous as always, he was sure. While he was just…just…
Prompto groaned as he sank into the collar of his own clothing. He kicked at the snow on the ground idly and tried to swallow back his nerves as his heart kept on beating, beating, beating like it wanted to escape before he made a fool of himself. Somewhere, a clock struck the hour with the echoing sound of bells.
Ready or not, it was go time. And he was not ready.
