Since high school. Damn how did they miss it for that long? Why didn't they tell him? Why... hide that from him? It stings, both that they would hide such a significant part of themselves from him but also just- one more little reminder that other people are allowed to keep things private. That don't have to consider that they need to tell certain key people about their business just in case there's an emergency, unable to ever really keep anything to themselves.

The closest thing he ever had to that was Lunafreya... and she's dead. Because of him.

Noct hugs Prompto back, squeezes him tight enough to be uncomfortable and buries his face in his boyfriend's chest. "Okay good. Cause I dunno if I could handle losing you too." Some Chosen One he is, can't even handle the idea of not having his boyfriend at his side every night. There's just so much he's lost in such a short time that he's pretty sure he'd just crawl into a hole and never get up if he lost Prompto too.
