Noctis Lucis Caelum x Reader OC | Memories |

23

It was August now, the weather started to cool down a little bit and Noctis birthday came closer with every second.. since your last conversation you had never talked to him again, you avoided him as good as possible and he did the same as you assumed, the photo book was finished and so your promise was fulfilled even if in the end the both of you were no longer friends..

You walked down the school corridor carrying your books when you heard someone calling your name, you turned around and saw that Prompto running towards you, you gave him a weak smile and greeted him

"Hey Prompto" he stopped in front of you and caught his breath

"How long were you going to ignore me? I was calling after you for a while" you felt embarrassed that you hadn't heard him since your mind was still somewhere else...

"I-I'm sorry.. I was...-" he cut you off

"Thinking about Noctis?" your pupils grew bigger as you looked down to the floor

"I... no..." Prompto looked at your face and he felt sorry for you once again

"You know that you don't have to lie to me... I know..." you wanted to shake it off and just change the subject

"Don't... please.. just don't talk about this... I don't want to hear it.." he stopped talking and your eyes met

"Can I ask something of you..?" he nodded

"Sure, what is it?" you walked over to the window sill and placed your books on it to have your hands free as you opened your bag and took out the photo book which you had finished last night

"C-Can you give this to... him... it's my present..." Prompto looked at the book and then carefully took it from your hands

"I will..." you gave him a weak smile

"Thank you... I just.. don't have the courage to give it to him myself..." he nodded

"Don't worry, I will give it to him personally" you looked relieved and took your books in your hands again

"I'm sorry if I caused trouble for him.. it was never my intention to make him... so cold.." Prompto felt his own heart ache as he heard your words, he wanted to tell you so desperately how wrong you had it but he couldn't

"Shiro I.." you looked at him trying to hold back a tear

"It's ok.. I knew from the start that I was not the one that could make him happy.. I have nothing to give him... I am not a princess... I don't have a crown and a castle I just live in a small apartment with enough space for the things I need... I am no match for someone like him" your words let a tear escape your eyes and you where crying now in front of Prompto.. you whipped your eyes clean trying to stay strong in front of him

"I'm sorry.. I don't know myself why I said that, just forget about it.." you started walking past him and picked up more speed to get away as fast as possible, Prompto looked after you with pained eyes, your tears hurt him badly and he looked down at the book in his hands, he opened it and looked through the pages, the pictures that you had glued in there were just perfect.. when he reached the last page he found the picture of you and Noctis at the Christmas ball and a sentence below the picture that said :

"Our heart desires many things, but in the end it's up to us to decide what we really want"

He closed the book and turned around one more time to look after you with shaking eyes.

You walked out of the school on your last day, you had graduated with the others and everyone was in party mode except for you, you walked alone around the city for a few hours and took in the last beautiful sights of the city before you would move away from Lucis.... you had found a college in a different city and would move in a few days.. you haven't told it anyone because there was no reason for anyone to know... you made your last stop by the big tree in front of the castle and took out the last letter you had written for Noctis, this was a different letter than the ones before.. it was a love letter that contained all your feelings for him.. you had thought about it for a while if you should put the letter in the chest or not, but you decided to do so since you would leave this place soon and this was the only chance you had to confess your feelings to him even if you knew that it would never reach him, you started to dig up the chest and placed the letter together with the key you had once received from him that was fitting in the lock to the attic in the school

"I'm sorry that I never had the courage to tell you how I feel in person... I just couldn't live with the fact that it would make you unhappy if you'd knew.." you closed the chest and buried it before you stood up, the wind blew your hair around and you closed your eyes saying your goodbyes to Noctis

"I hope that Luna will make you happy.. she is a lovely girl after all.. you 2 make a great match, I know that you will make a great king since you already have a warm heart.. the people will be happy to have someone like you as their idol.. " after that you walked away burying your face into your scarf as you made your way home.

5 days later was the wedding.. you had woken up in the morning looking at your clock with sad eyes, you got up from your mattress that was lying on the floor since your stuff was already packed up, you sit up for a moment and let a small tear escape your eye

"Happy birthday Noct..." you whispered silently and took out the picture that you kept under your pillow from your camping trip ( if you followed my story you know which one I mean ;) ) you stared at the picture for while until the door bell interrupted you and you lied it to the side, you got up and walked to the door and opened it, just as you had expected it was the moving team, you greeted a good morning and let them inside your apartment, they gave you the plan how long they would need and when the departure was, you agreed and let them start, your father was at the hospital collecting some last things from his office before he would join you, you walked back to your room and sit down on the mattress

"Departure is at 5 pm..." you mumbled sadly as you knew exactly that at the same time the wedding would be.. you grabbed the picture and stood up, you changed into a dark red skirt with black high knee socks and a black sweater before you fixed your appearance in the mirror and left the apartment to be out of the way for the moving people, you walked through town seeing big pictures everywhere about the wedding, you looked at the ground as you walked, you once again wanted to cry so badly but hold it back sine you were in public and did not wanted the other people to see you crying.. your destination was none you just walked around randomly to pass the time..
