Gladio sighs. "I bet." He doesn't feel like that really rules out Prompto getting spooked because he felt like things were going in too suggestive a direction...but he also is certain Chibi won't confirm for him whether Prompto is interested in him or not, with Noct in the picture. Chibi indicated she won't say anything that would make Prom uncomfortable, and divulging the nature of his feelings for him would definitely fall in that category.

Hell, even if Chibi would tell him, Gladio wouldn't ask. That wouldn't be fair to Prom. That's the sort of thing the kid has the right to say for himself, or keep to himself. Gladio's not going to go behind his back getting his own dog to rat on him.

"Well, whatever's going on, the kid needs his space, and I'm in his right now." Gladio rises to his feet. "I'm heading back to my own place. Get in contact with him once I'm gone and let him know it's safe to come back, alright? And let him know I'm not mad. Who the hell knows what he's working himself up thinking."
