The Apartment Above the Photo Hut - Sunday Morning

[flamesburned]

Liz still couldn’t believe that her brother was here, that she had been spending the last couple of days with him and she knew this wasn’t permanent and it hurt that he wasn’t going to stay.

So she had been taken advantage of being with David while she could, she had taken lots of photos and he’d met Noctra and Rain and now she wanted to make a breakfast and spend as much time as she could with him because she had a feeling she would be saying goodbye again soon and that idea hurt but this time she could say goodbye, she hadn’t gotten the chance to the first time.

David had wanted to help and so Liz had given him the task of stiring the pancake batter, which was making a bit of a mess but David was enjoying himself and Liz couldn’t help but smile, although somewhat sadly as she stared at her brother.

Since Friday night, Prompto felt like he existed in a constant state of tug-of-war with himself, a tug-of-war that went three ways: he wanted Liz to have all the time in the world with her brother, but he also wanted to be there to support her because he knew this was hard for her, and he also wanted to spend more time with Noctis while he was here, too. It felt like a balancing act, with all sorts of spinning plates, but he knew, as important as Noct was to him, his family was more important now, so he was there, to help entertain and take care of Noctra and the cat so Liz could pour all of her attention into David.

Until, of course, it became too much, and then he'd step in so she could do whatever she needed to get a break.

Hopefully, it wouldn't turn out that the thing she needed a break from was him, but he couldn't help every once in a while poking his head into the kitchen to see how things were going.

"Looking like quite the breakfast feast you guys got going on in here," he noted, Noctra cradled in his arm and mostly just going to town on that banana toy she'd been obsessed with lately.

David beamed up from where he was stirring the batter, “we’re making pancakes,” he said cheerfully as he spilled a bit more batter.

“And bacon and eggs,” Liz added as she turned the bacon and then smiled gratefully at Prompto, she knew that all of this was a lot, especially with Noctis back as well, but she was extremely appreciative of everything that he had been doing for her this weekend with David.

“Sorry the kitchen’s a bit of a mess,“ she apologised as she helped David begin to pour the pancake mix.

"Hey, the messier the kitchen, the better the meal, right?" said Prompto, who could practically hear Ignis' wince at the mere idea of such a claim from here. "Do you guys need any help, or will that be one pair of hands too many?"

"You can help," David informed him cheerfully as he watched the pancakes once they had been put in the frying pan.

Liz smiled at that, "did you want to help finish the eggs?" she asked, "we're just doing some scrambled eggs,"
