Noctis:

• He freezes when he heard the words leave their mouth in a whisper. 
• They had been watching a movie, and at some point in time his crush had ended up leaning against him, and allowed him to have his arm draped over their shoulders.
• He slowly turns his head, his face dusted with pink. Maybe he had imagined it? 
• But then they say it again, followed by how much they love his smile and how they wished he’d smile more often. 
• He tries to meet their eyes after shifting in such a way that they’re facing each other while they’re still rested against him.
• They’re asleep. A part of him is relieved that they aren’t awake to witness how flustered he’s getting. 
• Another part of him is disappointed that they likely wouldn’t remember that they basically told him they liked him.
• He plots for the next day, to surprise them with a date and officially asking them out.

Prompto:

• It started out with simply laying with each other in the park, cloud watching. He’d occasionally take a few picture, but soon, the sky lulled them both into a doze.
• But he’s startled awake when suddenly, he finds an arm draped over him and his crush pulling him closer to them.
• They nestle into his side and he can’t help but to let out a slight squeak of embarrassment. What would they do when they woke up and found him awake, and them asleep, and they were sooo close and-
• They suddenly say they like him.
• He blinks and he’s stunned for a moment. They say it again, and as if to emphasis their point, cuddle even closer to him.
• He hesitantly wraps his arms around them and pull them just as close, resting his chin in their hair. They mutter once more that they like him.
• He just lets them lay together after that, enjoying it while he can. He lets himself imagine that they were awake, and this would end in happily ever after for him. But he can’t keep pretending, and sighed, allowing himself to stop his daydreaming.
• “Do you mean it I wonder?” He asks quietly.
• “Yes.” Comes an unexpected response.
• He jumps about a mile in the air and asks when they had woken up.
• They grin and state they when he grabbed them they had woken, but didn’t want to stop cuddling him.
• “I meant it Prompto.”

Gladiolus:

• They’re concussed, clearly.
• A training session gone wrong from earlier today maybe? Because there’s no way in hell that that confession was for him.
• They were laying on his living room floor together, both tired from their days. Their head was on his shoulder and they were so close, he could feel their breath on his neck.
• He knew he should have woken them and let the move away, but honestly, he didn’t have the heart or determination to interrupt their sleep.
• And he’d gone and heard something not meant for him, no matter how much he wishes it was.
• But then they speak again, and say his name this time, and his heart flutters in his chest before he can stop it.
• He should wake them up, he tells himself, they don’t know what they’re saying.
• For all he knows, this was meant to be a secret!
• But then they sigh and mumble something about there being no time to sleep for the next two days.
• He decides to just let them sleep, and tried to tune out their sleepy confessions.
• He finds out the only way to get them to stop talking in their sleep is to respond to them. So he says he likes them just as much, they should get more sleep, and they should take a break with him one of these days…
• (He doesn’t see Iris in the doorway, recording them. He also doesn’t realize that Iris shows them the footage the next day. So when they walk up to him the day after, plant a kiss on his mouth, and then walk away without saying a word, he is SO so lost.)

Ignis:

• They are both in one of the Citadel’s many sleeping quarters, for when the staff is awake more than 24 hours and can’t make it home.
• The other rooms are full, but he sees that they have one of the rooms already and just wanders off to join them. (It’s an old arrangement really. They both knew each other, and were comfortable with each other, so they didn’t mind sharing a bed sometimes.)
• It’s not uncommon to find them both there, over worked and sleeping it off. It’s just the first time he gets there and they’re already asleep. Normally he’s asleep when they get there and has a room, and he awakes when they’re asleep, putting the room in their name as he leaves. (They keep records of such a thing down here, and they’re not the only staff members who have such an arrangement, so it’s not looked down upon.)
• So the voice that comes from them as he’s drifting off is a surprise. Especially when it’s as clear as day. “I adore you Ignis.”
• He almost thinks he’s dreaming, and responds without thinking. “I adore you as well.”
• He freezes when he realizes he said that out loud.
• He breathes a sigh of relief when he realizes that they were sleep talking. But then he realizes that they’re sleep talking. About liking him.
• He bolts upright by accident when a thought strikes him. Oh gods, what if he spoke in his sleep too??
• The movement is enough to wake them and cause them to turn over to face him.
• “Morning Ig. Something wrong?” They look a little concerned rather than upset that he woke them.
• He stutters and stumbles over his words, but tells them the truth. “You said you adore me??”
• They blink, and then chuckle sleepily. “Oh…yeah. I do. I figured I’d return the favor. Goodnight Iggy.”
• He’s left a little unsure about what they meant, but lays back down anyways. He’d deal with…whatever this was when he woke up.
• (He nearly jumps out of his skin when he realizes their unconscious minds took their last conversation as a confession and woke up CUDDLING with them.)
