The Apartment Above the Photo Hut - Thursday

Liz was feeling rather tired and wasn’t feeling up to moving a lot so she decided to not go downstairs that day and instead opted to do as much as she felt up to doing from the couch, she had managed to get slightly again with some of her November work and wanted to try and focus on getting as ahead on her admin work as she could, especially with just how close the birth was now and that she wouldn’t be doing any admin work for a while afterwards.

"Okay," Prompto said, his own smile gone a little sheepish and apologetic, as he reminded himself that Liz's exhausted expression (probably!) had more to do with being near the end of her term than with the lack of focus in his fussing. "Sounds good."

Just in case it was thr latter, though, he ducked into the kitchen quickly again, and when he returned this time, it was, indeed, with a glass of water, lemon, ice, ready to go.

"I didn't know if you wanted a straw," he said, holding one up after he handed the glass over, "but at least that I could just bring with it, you know?"

"Gee," the easy, teasing tilt of Prompto's grin was back in full force, "I wonder why..."

"It honestly could be any day now, right?" Prompto said, with that awkward little shift born out of nerves that he would never quite be able to get rid of. "They're definitely ready at thr hospital, though. I called to check this morning."

And pretty much every morning since November started, which might be a little excessive, but, well, they had to be prepared! It had been fine with Noctra, but there were definitely some additional risks that most people wouldn't have!

They might not be as grateful for the constant check-ins, but, well, they were just going to have to get used to it!

Well, unless it happened, like, now, and Prompto seemed to wait for a brief second as if expecting that thought to become reality. But no. Not yet...

"I'm so excited, though," he admitted, an almost boyish excitement making his cheeks blush a little. "I can't wait. Well, I can. Obviously."

He laughed, gesturing at all the waiting they were both clearly doing.

"But also...I mean... you know what I mean."
