Marigot Beach Club and Dive Resort; St. Lucia, the Caribbean; Saturday [01/06].

Prompto had considered a return to the same resort that he and Liz had shipped off to a year ago for their honeymoon, but with so many islands down in the Caribbean to enjoy (and without Summer footing some of the bill as a wedding gift), he figured he should angle for something a little different. But once he saw one of the islands with a relatively affordable resort on it was called St. Lucia...well...

How could he not?

They'd arrived yesterday, of course, and they took a lot of time to just sort of get a lay of the land and a feel for the place and tried to relax on the beach for a nice St. Lucian (!!) sunset, but most of that time was also spent trying very hard (and failing) to not constantly check their phones and text Gladio about how things were going with Noctra, if there were any troubles, was she eating okay? She didn't seem to be crying or upset or distraught they were gone, did she? Did they need them to come home? They could come home!

But Gladio had been very patient at reassuring them, and, when that patience started to slip, he just had Ignis take over with the reassurances, and, between the two of them (and the mention that Nell had also offered to help if needed, too), Prompto was able to at least relax enough to eventually get some rest and look forward to at least a few more days of worrying in paradise.

He really did hope that Saturday would be less worrying and flailing as they started to get more familiar with the idea of it being just the two of them to enjoy the sun and the warmth and each other's company.

There was a little stab of guilt for it, but, Prompto had to admit, it was really nice actually sleeping in and being woken up by the warmth and the sun and snuggling into his wife beside him in bed without any kids or cats immediately demanding attention, and just gave a happy, contented sigh.

[[ mostly for the wife, obviously, but can be open for texts and calls that will definitely not induce flailing, really! ]]

Even though she couldn’t help but worry about Noctra, she knew Gladio and Ignis would be fine looking after her. Being in the Caribbean with Prompto was wonderful and she was still marvelling a little at the fact that it was their one year wedding anniversary.

She was really enjoying lying there in the bed curled up to her husband, “this is really nice,” she said sleepily as she took the time to appreciate just how relaxing all of this was.

"You know," Prompto said, murmuring slightly against Liz's shoulder as he kissed it and nuzzled his chin against it, "we could technically just stay right here in bed all day. If we wanted."

Haha, yeah, right, like they didn't have maybe all of ten minutes before they were both absolutely itching to at least check their phones for any messages, but until then...and after that...

Liz smiled at that kiss as she snuggled in closer, not making any matte or to move, “it does sound like a very tempting idea doesn’t it?”

Even though she knew it wouldn’t be long before the inevitable check of their phones. It was still a nice thought staying in bed all day.

"It does," Prompto agreed, sighing happily, and his neck nuzzle was definitely going into her neck. "I mean, there's a lot we could do around this island, but there's also a lot we could do right here in this bed, too."

With his face buried as it was, she couldn't see the eyebrow waggle that came before another kiss, but she could probably hear it there in his tone.

And Liz went bright red at that, she could guess what Prompto was suggesting and smiled, “now that does sound like a very good way to spend our anniversary,”

"Important part of a happy marriage, right?" asked Prompto, with another kiss moving back to Liz's shoulder and his hand drifting lightly down her arm as he grinned. "Gotta keep that romance alive..."

Plus, well....last time they took a trip like this, Liz had been very pregnant, and while that hadn't made Prompto any less amorous, it did put more of their focus on pampering of a different kind.

"No arguments from me," Liz smiled fondly as she slowly began to turn around so that she could look up at Prompto, "hi," she added, her smile widening.

And that simple,very familiar greeting instantly made Prompto grin from ear to ear, only made more prevalent by being able to look at Liz's face, too.

"Hi," he said back, that hand that had been drifting down her arm now lifting to brush a little hair from her face and then linger a little on the blush on her cheek. "Fancy meeting you here..."

Liz giggled as she smiled up him, her own hand going to his face to stroke it gently, "I'm definitely glad we both are here," she said fondly.

"Me, too," Prompto agreed, softly, and just taking a moment of looking into Liz's eyes to sort of marvel at the fact that they were here, after everything, and then he closed his eyes to lean in to pour all of that feeling and sentiment and emotion into a good, long kiss.

And when he pulled back,it was only just enough to look into her eyes again.

"Happy anniversary, Liz," he said. "Hopefully the first of many," another kiss, "many," and another, "many!" that kiss came with a chuckle, "more!"

Liz happily returned those kisses, "happy anniversary Prompto," she said with a smile, "and definitely the first of many more to come,"

"What'ya say?" asked Prompto, grin going crooked and now that she was facing him Liz couldn't escape the waggling eyebrows. "Should we get this anniversary started out right, then?"

She could escape the kisses Prompto was going to bury into her neck after that, of course, but he certainly hoped she wouldn't...

Oh look at that, that familiar red blush was back and she had no intention of escaping any issues, "I definitely like the sound of that," she said happily as she snuggled in closer.

Well, then, Prompto was certainly not going to make a claim like that and not deliver, taking advantage of the fact that they could spend as long as they wanted and not have to worry about any interruptions or other obligations, except for maybe at least one awkward encounter when housekeeping came a-knocking.

And Liz was definitely happy with that arrangement, enjoying the time that she had Prompto had making their first anniversary memorable, that they could take their time and they didn't have to be anywhere.

She had completely forgotten about housekeeping, "oh," she blinked a little, "I forgot about housekeeping," she admitted.

"I just didn't realize," Prompto admitted with a little chuckle, and a happy sigh, nuzzling into Liz with another light series of kisses wherever jis mouth was closest to, "it was already getting that late in the day.

"Sorry!" he called. "Still occupied!"

He paused to wait and listen if they'd heard, and when not continued interruption followed, he grinned over at Liz.

"Maybe that's our cue," he said, "to actually get up..."

Watch him not make any such move. The only move he was making was to steal a kiss on Liz's stomach and then back his way back up to her lips.

"Maybe ..." Liz agreed reluctantly but then funnily enough she was also not making an effort to actually move, especially when those kisses made their way to her lips and she happily moaned into them as she returned them.

"I do have some stuff to give you, too, you know," said Prompto, grinning at Liz's response, which only encouraged more kisses and a drift of his hand down her side that probably was acting pretty counterintuitively to his attempts to convince them out of bed. "Presents. Gifts. If that helps any..."

Just ignore the fact that his mouth and fingers and shifting body seemed to be very intent on bestowing their own gifts to her right now, too.

Liz was rather torn, on the one hand she did like the idea of exchanging presents but she was really enjoying this gift right now.

“I have presents to give you as well,” she told him with a smile, still not quite willing to move.

"Oh, yeah?" asked Prompto, shifting a little so that he could nuzzle into her shoulder a little more again, kissing it before hitting her with a big grin. "Good presents?"

Liz smiled at the shoulder nuzzle and kiss, a flush spreading across her cheeks as her smile widened, "very good presents," she nodded.

Prompto's grin widened, as he stretched up a little to start kissing up Liz's neck again. "Better than this?" he asked, into her ear once he'd kisses his way up to it and shifted his body against hers, feeling way too proud of himself for that little maneuver and also really curious about what she might actually say.

Oh look Liz's face was very red at that now at those kisses as she leaned against him, "well ...maybe not better than this," she said a little sheepishly as she looked up and and then in to give him a kiss.

And it looked like maybe those presents were going to have to wait even longer still, as Prompto met that kiss with enthusiasm, his hands seeming to not know where they wanted to go more until he finally just used the to pull Liz in closer.

Good thing they didn't need to be anywhere or have any obligations today! Except, clearly, being together, celebrating each other, and Prompto was very locked into doing exactly that with gusto right now.

Liz happily returned that kiss as Prompto drew her in closer, her arms going around his waist as she did.

It was definitely a good thing they didn't need to be anywhere today, Liz really had no plans to stop the kissing, at least until a thing like breathing became an issue.

At some point in the day, both Liz and Prompto would get a picture of a perfectly healthy and alive Noctra being held by Ignis...who was even smiling! Like, with his mouth!

Awhile later, another would be sent, Noctra holding a golden bracelet on her head, and--wait, was Ignis still smiling? This was accompanied by text Your daughter has excellent taste in accessories.

Ooof! Ouch! Right in the adorable feels! Prompto felt a wash of relief when he jumped for his phone and saw that it wasn't Gladio or Ignis with an emergency, and then positively melted into his beach chair once he actually saw what Liliana had sent.

The first one got an Awww! Look at them!!!! 😍😍😍 reponse.

But then the second could only be responded to with:

ok yes that is adorable but seriously who is this strange man holding my child that looks like iggy but is doing a weird thing with his face???? 🤣🤣🤣

Every time I go to take a picture, I say 'Cup Noodle is an offense against civilization' just to make sure he's ready for it.

that'll do it! 🤣🤣🤣

everything seems to be going well tho?

Sure, sure,Gladio had sent him an update as soon as the baby exchange had occurred, but he was still going to worry, because somehow, he wasn't sure he and Gladio would have the same opinions on what classified as 'fine'. Second opinions were welcome!

It's not terribly difficult to make Ignis smile, you know.

Stop smirking, Prompto.

Everything is well. She would absolutely lie to you about this, Prompto, if she felt you didn't need to know the truth. I expect the excitement of so many new people is going to pall soon - it certainly does for me - and then she will need to angry cry and take a nap, but that is a wholly understandable reaction and not too dissimilar to what I have planned for my own afternoon.

Hey! How did you know he was smirking?!?

preeeeettty sure that smiling thing varies on a case by case basis!

And yeah it'll be her naptime soon! Remind Iggy that she likes a snack after she gets up!

He started to also type out that she should tell Gladio not to read the bunny book before a nap time, that one got her too excited, but the one about the flowers usually puts her out like a light and then deleted it when he remembered he could just text that to Gladio directly, but before he did that, he added:

hope you have a good cry AND nap, liliana!!!

She had met you even one time was how.

Well, I'm dreadfully clever and charming so I can see where I might have an advantage over most. And I'll be certain to pass the message along.

And then.

Thank you, darling. I intend it to be more of a tantrum than crying, however. I don't cry but I'm quite fond of yelling and kicking. I'll be sure to demonstrate for Noctra. Have a lovely rest of your day, darling.

And you know what? Prompto was totally fine with leaving all that charming cleverness to Liliana!

Especially because it really was pretty great, seeing Ignis actually smiling like that.

thanx liliana! U 2!!
