A cool gentle breeze ruffled the alabaster curtains that hung low in front of the open window. The sun's warm rays peeked through the curtains, as if it was trying to tell you and the raven haired prince beside you that it was the beginning of a new day. The sound of birds could be heard right outside your window, chirping away at the reborn sun. The smell of the sylleblossoms was being brought with the breeze and it flooded the room with the sweet scent.

The sound of a soft yawn escaped your lips as you laid on your back, staring up at the dusty gray ceiling. The bottom of your palms rubbing away the blurriness in your tired (E/C) eyes; even after getting a full night's rest, you still felt the sandman trying to lull you back to sleep by the sweet smell of the flowers and the lovely birds singing outside your window.

You outstretched your limbs, the tension being released after sleeping in awkward positions and the previous day's battles against the empire. You were thanking the gods for being about to take refuge in the city of Lestallum, even if was just for a couple of days; you were just grateful to be able to sleep on an actual bed during your travels instead of camping, like Ignis insists.

The sound of soft snores pulled your attention to the left side of your bed. You turned on your side to see the raven haired prince Noctis, sleeping soundly on his stomach, his face buried in the fluffy white pillow. The navy pale blue covers were pulled all the way up to the nape of his neck, making only his shaggy raven locks visible at the top. The covers would rise and fall in a calm pattern due to his breathing and the snores gave you reassurance that he was sleeping well. His face was barely visible with the amount of hair that shielded his perfect face. He looked peaceful and you felt bad for having to be the one to wake him.

You reached for your phone on the nightstand and pulled it close to your face, you checked the time and you only let a soft sigh escape your lips; Ignis had told you and Noct to be up and ready by eight-thirty, and it was already eight-ten. You placed your phone back on the nightstand and moved closer to your beloved. The warm breaths that escaped from his nose hit your skin and made you shiver, no matter how many blankets you were wrapped up in.

"Noct..." You placed a gentle hand on his back and lightly shook him awake. He groaned for a short minute, before shifting in the bed, not even daring to open his eyes, "Noct, it's morning. We need to get up now."

He mumbled some incoherent words before shifting once more and hooking his arm around you waist under the covers and pulling you closer to his warm body. You grunted as he tighten his grip every time you tried to move away from him. You covered your face with your hands, before trying to wake the sleeping prince once more.

"Noct, we must get up; we told Ignis that we would meet him down in the lobby at eight-thirty and it's already eight-twelve. If we don't get up now, Ignis will have my head!" You warned him and you finally had gotten a response from him.

He opened up his deep sapphire eyes and his gaze met yours; a small smile instant appeared on your lips, just at seeing him smile at you. He let a loud yawn escape before kissing your forehead with such tenderness, it made you blush as if he was kissing you for the first time. "Just five more minutes; it won't kill you to get some extra shuteye before we set out again, now would it?" His morning voice sounded gravelly; his chest vibrated with every word he spoke, making you want to cuddle closer to him.

"Noct, you know we can't spare any time on our journey, we must get up now." You pushed yourself away from his chest, sacrificing the warmth of his body for your royal duties. "I you don't get up now, I'll be forced to send your chocobo back to the farm and everyone else will have one to ride except for you." You threatened him with taking away his feathery friend, but all he did was chuckle lowly.

"Didn't you say that the last time I slept in? And what did I arrive on when we got to Lestallum?" He smirked at you as he yawned once more, turning in the bed so that you were facing his back. You only huffed in annoyance as he was only proving your threats false. You mind was trying to gather itself, so that you could get Noct out of the bed and dressed. "Five more minutes, that's all I ask."

"Well you only get four and a half, since you said five more minutes a minute and a half ago." You poked him in the back, trying to convey that you didn't fully agree with his decision. "Why you get your extra beauty rest, I'll be getting ready and I'll meet you downstairs in the lobby." You rolled to the edge of the bed and just when you were about to throw the covers off of your body, you felt Noctis' two arms link around your waist and pull you close to his chest once more.

"Noctis!"

He ignored your pleas to let you go and instead wrapped the blankets around you both so tight that you felt like a mummy pressed up against him. Your face was against his chest, giving him the opportunity to rest his chin on top of your head, like he always does when he's standing or sitting. His hands slipped under your shirt and roamed your back; you knew he was trying to soothe you to the point where you would be lulled back to sleep. You were starting to wish that you didn't tell him your weaknesses.

"I didn't say I wanted to spend those five minutes alone in bed." He said as you heard the mirth hidden in his voice. You only sighed and rested your forehead against his naked chest.

You only laughed in response as you looked up at your prince with doting eyes. He looked down at you, a small smile on his lips as he looked over your face, as if he was remembering every key feature you had. Slowly but surely, you both leaned into the kiss and it was sweet and playful. You hands found their way out of the covers to cup the side of his face, brushing away the hair that shielding you from seeing those ocean blue eyes. You took each others breath away and slowly pulled away from each other.

You both stood silent for a moment, not daring to ruin this perfect moment. The birds outside your window sang a beautiful melody that made your smile only bigger and brighter. The smell of flowers got heavier in the room and you knew you couldn't hold out any longer. Your hazy (E/C) eyes fluttered shut and you embraced the warmth that Noctis provided. Your smile never fell from your lips as you felt the sandman take you into a deep slumber once more.

Just as you were about to dream once more, the sound of four fists pounding on the door to your room startled you to the point where you almost climbed on top of Noctis. His eyes shot open and looked at the door and then at you. You only bowed your head on his chest before quietly laughing to yourself.

"What's so funny? Who is it?" Noctis was surprised by your sudden bout of giggles. He was a bit nervous as to who could be behind that door; he was the Prince of Insomnia, being away from home certainly meant he was an easy target out in the outskirts.

"Noct! (Y/N)!"

Your laughs only got louder and you looked up at Noctis with mirth deep in your playful (E/C) eyes. You planted a gentle and sweet kiss on his lips before patting his chest with your palms. His eyes looked more alive and ready, and you knew that you were both in trouble.

"Ignis is going to kill us..."

"Well, if he does, at least I know you'll be right beside me."
