The thing was he didn't know what it meant to him. A constant flip flop between it was too much with it wasn't enough. A steady dichotomy of the fear of falling more into whatever this was between them but also the fear of it going away. He felt raw and vulnerable in a way he hadn't since - since a time he was trying really hard not to think about.
And it wasn't as though Prompto hadn't nursed his fair share of crushes over the years, people that had filtered in and out that he had found attractive and charming for a short time. People he'd given into for a night, some he still talked to some who were long gone. But it was different when he looked over at Gladio at the words. It felt different. There was a want there of course. One he was familiar with, the want to get lost inside someone else even if only for a few hours. The want to drown out the world with sex and all it entailed. But it was more. So much more. And he knew it was dumb. That this was what it was - friends blowing off steam with sex and he was stupid for even entertaining the idea of it being more. Both because of his own issues and because why the hell would someone like Gladio want more than that from him.
But still it was there. Still it tugged at him and shocked him with just how quickly it had snuck up on him.
He hopped up on the counter, towel wrapped around his waist and toes grazing against the tile floor as he gave a smirk of his own to Gladio's. "You know it," he answered and then did a little motion with his finger for Gladio to do a little turn.
