(REQUEST CLOSED) Noctis X Reader {One Shots}

37. Dance

"Sorry!" You sucked in a breath through your teeth, posture curving immediately after stepping on Noctis's toes.

Again.

"It's alright," Noctis replied.

"I'm so bad at this..." You slumped further into yourself.

"Hey," Noctis took his hand off of your shoulder to push a finger against your forehead. "You're not that bad."

"Not bad huh..." you frowned but got back into a proper posture.

"I just can't get the hang of it." You pouted.

"You're not supposed to. At least not right away," Noctis put his hand back on your waist while the other grabbed at your outstretched hand. "Now this time, let's try again."

For Noctis it was amusing watching your furrow your eyebrows as you counted under your breath. You were a bit stiff but you're so eager and that's all mattered. You hold Noctis's shoulder and tried your best not to fall on the floor due to your laughter. The waves of mirth crashing onto you harder as you failed miserably to keep your balance.

"Can we try to take it from the top again?" You asked, gently pushing your hair behind your ear. Noctis pulled you closer to your body so that your posture for the dance was appropriate and then slipped his right arm to your waist. His left hand gripped your right and you began to ease into the newly learned rhythm once again.

"(Y/N)" Noctis spoke up.

"Yea?" You lifted your head to look into his blue eyes.

"You're stepping on my toes again," he pointed out.

"Sorry!!!" You apologized again but when you jumped off his toe you accidentally stepped onto the other one.

"Ow.." Noctis winced in pain.

"Ah! So sorry!" You panicked as you let go of each other momentarily while Noctis tried to figure something out of there was another way to teach you. He needed you to relax, but with you always looking down at his-

"Have you been looking down at your feet the whole time, (Y/N)?" You blinked at Noctis's sudden question.

"Well, yeah...how else am I supposed to see what I'm doing?" You asked.

"Well, stop doing it," Noctis replied.

"But-" Before you could protest Noctis spoke over you.

"Stop it," Noctis ordered.

"You've actually got rhythm and you know what to do. If you look down at your feet, you may know what you're doing but you'll never know where you're going." Noctis explained as you let out a loud gasp.

"I never thought of it that way!" You gasped.

"Come on, let's get back to it," Noctis faintly smiled and you got back into holding position.

"So...I shouldn't look down at my feet right?" You asked making sure.

"Exactly...just look at me," Noctis smirked and you felt your face blushed as you stared directly at Noctis's face that was very close to yours.

"There you see, you're doing it," he smiled as your eyes opened widely.

"Y-you're right!" You stuttered.

"I'm doing it!" You grinned, you were still a little hesitant and the stiffness wasn't gone, but you had improved greatly.

"Thank you, Noctis, for taking the time to teach me how to dance!" You smiled.

"Anything for you my princess," Noctis replied as he kissed you and started leading you in wider circles without looking away from your eyes.
