Just when I thought that I only have to pay attention on how to get out of this mass of people, I suddenly find myself getting filled with certain ideas the moment Noctis started pulling me closer to him.
Since the path is becoming narrower and narrower due to everyone's persistent effort to take a closer look at me, he has no choice but to wrap his arm around my waist in order to keep me from getting carried away. One side of my face then ends up hitting his chest as the gap between us completely vanishes.
"Kyaaa...!"
Taken aback, I tilt my head upward and look up to Noctis with eyes as wide as saucers. Only then did I realize just how really tall this man is, which somehow accentuates his masculinity and picture perfect physique.
"I'm sorry for this, my lady. Please, bear with it until the crowd lessens," he apologized, glancing down at me before suddenly jolting a little in surprise.
