153.   “You didn’t tell me it was karaoke night..” 

Prompt List here.

One thing the Luna enjoyed, ever since marrying Noctis, was
the life all around the city.

From the Citadel she could see the lights of the city during
the night, and how the city came to life during the day. Rarely had Luna seen,
growing, people who weren’t restricted with rules and regulations that had been
enforce with an iron fist. Here, people didn’t have fear in their eyes.

Another thing she enjoyed was the music.

She’d grown up with Niflheim’s stilted music, deemed fit for royalty while the lively music of the people was considered vulgar. But here in Lucis, even in the citadel, radios played music. Lively, upbeat, music. 

One such song was playing in her and Noctis’s quarters now. Ever since she moved in, she’d been listening when she had time. And while she was supposed to be in meetings with Noctis and the rest of the council, she’d had a headache. And once he’d heard that, he fretted over her until she excused herself from the meetings. 

But now that she felt better, she was sitting at her desk, penning a letter to Ravus about her new life in Insomnia. However, as she wrote she didn’t notice that she was humming. Not even when she switched to singing along with the notes. 

It was then, while her mind was preoccupied, that Noctis slipped into the room. He listened for a short while, a small smile on his face as he watched his wife. Once she was singing along with the chorus again, he crossed the room, and put his arms around her shoulders.

She slightly jumped, but when she turned her head and saw who it was, a smile lit up her face.

“Noctis. I didn’t hear you come in.” She glanced at the clock and then back at him, “I didn’t realize it had gotten so late.”

He gave a small laugh and replied, “You didn’t tell me it was karaoke night, otherwise I would have been here sooner.”

She hummed in a amusement and kissed the corner of his mouth in response.
