Prompto's Fantasy
A/N: Let me clarify one thing before you read the story. As you are aware from Crystals of Suzaku, Manami is the Princess of Serpentania, but her childhood has been pretty vague. So let me make this clear; she is childhood friends with Prompto before her father created Serpentania and moved it to. This will most likely assume that she was once a citizen of Tenebrae, but because FFversusXIII's story is unclear, then we don't know. I'll end up explaining Manami's story another time.
What better way to start off the Booklet of Final Fantasy than with Prompto. I love this guy and there isn't much to him just yet. Tetsuya Nomura, hurry up because FFType-0 and FFXIII-2 is not enough!

CRASH.
"Dammit Prompto! How many times have I told you not to break the plates!?"
You winced as you heard Manami's angry shout from the kitchen. Ever since Prompto had been reunited with her, she had been working for Prince Noctis in retrieving the crystals. Ignis set down his mug of coffee and sighed.
"They are certainly an interesting pair of childhood friends, aren't they [Name]?"
"A-Ah, yes."
You glanced over to the kitchen, in time to see Manami wack Prompto over the head. The blonde rubbed the back of his head to soothe the pain and tried to convince Manami that it was an accident. You smiled lightly at how cute he was acting, but then frowned realising he may not return your feelings. That's right, you were in love with Prompto, but there were a few problems; the blonde was very dense when it comes to love and Manami. It wasn't that you hated Manami or anything, no, she was kind when she wanted to be, but because of her close relationship with Prompto, you assumed that they were together.
"You look bothered [Name]," Ignis raised an eyebrow, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Just a lot on my mind, that's all." You answered softly as Prompto and Manami appeared from the kitchen and into the living room.
"Yo [Name]! You're looking very well!" The blonde grinned to you, causing you to blush slightly.
You noticed from the corner of your eye Manami letting out a small hum. She then looked over at Ignis.
"Hey, I just remembered that Noctis wanted us. We better go find Gladiolus and see the prince now." Her eyes shifted from you and Prompto and Ignis nodded.
"I also remembered that. You two," The man looked at both yourself and Prompto, "Stay here until we come back."
As soon as Ignis and Manami left, you cursed mentally. Damn Manami, she must have known about your crush on Prompto. But it didn't make sense; why would Manami hand over Prompto so easily?
"Aw really? They left us behind?" Prompto scratched the back of his head, "Manami had better explain to me why Noctis wanted to see her and Ignis."
You looked at the blonde and noticed a slightly frown on his handsome face. It made you wonder if he was disappointed that Manami wasn't around him. It hurt to say it, but perhaps Prompto only had eyes for Manami and not you.

"I would have never taken you as the matchmaker type Manami." Ignis pointed out as he, Manami, Gladiolus and Noctis spied on Prompto and [Name], the last of the four being reluctant.
"Oh shut up. I'm sick and tired of those two being so dense and oblivious. If this doesn't work, then I'll think of something else." Manami answered.
Noctis sighed and shook his head, "This is a waste of time. We should be discussing the crystals' locations."
"You may be a prince, but I am also a princess and I also happen to have iron fists, so don't make me hurt you." Manami held up her fists to strengthen her threat as Gladiolus laughed.
"Not the type of princesses you're used to I'm afraid." The man slapped the back of Noctis's back, causing him to stagger lightly.
"I'm never going to get used to your slaps." Noctis muttered under his breath.

"So how long do you think we'll have to wait?" Prompto asked you.
"About half an hour. That is usually the discussion time length between Ignis and Noctis." You answered, feeling slightly uncomfortable.
You really wish either Ignis or Manami were here, at least they knew how to keep the atmosphere awkward free. Prompto nodded and took a seat beside on the sofa.
"You know, you always seem so uncomfortable when Manami's around. She's not as scary as she acts or look, she's a pretty nice person. I've pretty much known her my whole life." He said.
You stiffened. Did he noticed the way you frown and stayed quiet whenever Manami was around? Were you really that obvious? Curse the lack of controlling emotions.
"I know she's not that scary, but that's not why I was uncomfortable." You mumbled so quietly that Prompto had to lean in slightly to hear what you were saying.
"Then why? I hope it's not something negative." Prompto's tone immediately went serious and almost cold.
You flinched slightly. Of course there was one other thing about Prompto that everyone knew; he was protective over Manami and any negatives about her always ends up going towards him. Noctis found that out the hard way.
"I-It's just...well," You took in a deep breath, "I really like you, but it's alright if you and Manami together! I mean, you guys are great together so don't worry about me! Forget I even just said that!"
Prompto blinked a couple of times, before bursting out laughing. You puffed out your cheeks in offence.
"What is so funny!?" You growled.
"Y-You're just too cute [Name]!" Prompto calmed down slightly, but he was still quivering showing that he hadn't finished laughing just yet, "Manami and I don't have that kind of relationship. We're just childhood friends and if anything, she already has a boyfriend."
"Really?" You asked.
Prompto nodded, finally calming down, "And thank you for telling me how you really feel. I was wondering whether or not you have feelings for me or not."
You smiled brightly, "Of course I do."
Prompto leaned in and placed a delicate kiss on your lips, before pulling back and smiling.
"Hey, there's a new cafe that opened up just downtown. Want to go there tonight?"
"Sure! I like that!"

"Mission complete. Now I won't have to worry about them being dense." Manami smiled at her accomplishment.
Noctis folded his arms, "I really think you owe me something for wasting my time."
"What would that be?"
"You need to go out scouting alone for three days."
"...Okay why does everyone give me the hard missions?"
Ignis adjusted his glasses, "Doesn't that give you a chance to spy on [Name] and Prompto?"
"I'll leave tonight!"
"Dammit Prompto! How many times have I told you not to break the plates!?"
