SPICE UP THE NIGHT

Pairing: FFXV! IGNIS SCIENTIA x GENDER NEUTRAL!READER

Words: 3.239

Warnings: none, some erotic tension - nothing too explicit

Summary: You meet Ignis in Lestallum by chance, liking him immediately. Obviously, the two of you are sharing the same hobby: cooking and baking. So, why not spending some time together.

***

For the first time since he had left Insomnia, Ignis enjoyed the silence. No, not the silence itself because it was too loud around him. He enjoyed being alone. No, not loneliness itself because it was too busy around him.

Ignis Scientia enjoyed being just with himself. No royals, no strict rules and no prince. Ignis was for himself. In Lestallum. In the middle of a crowded marketplace. With all the food stalls, the salesmen and their different stuff. He got surrounded by a cloud of unintelligible noises like conversations, laughter and announcements of goods. And all this got accompanied by the smell of delicious spices, grilled meat and the sweet scent of desserts.

All in all, Ignis was in heaven. Prompto took pictures of the sightseeing points, Gladio and Iris were exploring the city and the nature on their own and Noctis was probably sleeping in his hotel room. After everything, they had agreed to take a one day break to recharge their energy before they would face Niflheim again. They all needed to recharge their batteries in their own ways.

Ignis used this free time wisely and with his favorite hobby: cooking. Getting inspired, finding new ingredients and maybe even developing new tactics to get Noctis used to vegetables.

The Lestallum market was the perfect place for this. Even in Insomnia this certain market was famous for its different spices and seasonings, for the types of meat and exotic fruits and vegetables. So, Ignis was happy that he just could wander around between all these people, following the vibe and enjoying the time alone with his thoughts.

"Hello, Sir. Do you already know our special flour? You just find it here at my stand.", a salesman said and tried to get Ignis' attention.

Ignis was indeed interested but a sweet and also hot scent caught his attention. He smelled pepper and ginger and changed his direction to the next stand which was stocked with so many, colorful ingredients.

With the hands folded behind his back, Ignis looked over the displayed, exotic things. He was fascinated by the colors and the names he had never seen or read before. The stand owner was busy with another customer so Ignis could take his time without getting asked any questions.

A bowl with some strange looking roots caught his attention. Ignis closed up with curiosity and read the sign next to the bowl: Maca root. He frowned. He never had seen one of these before but they looked interesting. Distracted with his own thoughts, he grabbed for one root but as a sound caught his attention, some small band started to play some song, Ignis didn't look where his hand was moving. He noticed how soft the root felt but his mind wasn't working fast enough.

"Well, as much as I like the feeling of your soft hand, I... Can I have mine back?"

Ignis' head snapped to the side, looking straight into the brightest eyes he had ever seen. You smiled at him and Ignis was sure that his brain stopped working. It lasted until you spoke again- your sweet voice brought him back to earth.

"Uhm, my hand?", you asked once again, looking at your hand that was still held by Ignis.

Suddenly, Ignis realized what he was doing. His cheeks turned pink and quickly, he drew his hand away from you, already missing your warmth and softness, "I'm so very sorry."

You shook your head, "That's okay. It's definitely a way to meet new people. I'm yn, nice to meet you.", you said, liking the man immediately. His bluish-green eyes were enchanting. His hair looked so touchable and his lips were simply perfect.

"That's true. My name is Ignis.", he said, finding his old self back quickly. His heart was still racing in his chest just by your beauty.

"So, is this your thing? Grabbing hands to meet new people? Or was the purpose something else?", you asked, giving him a smirk while raising one of your brows questioningly.

Ignis chuckled, "Actually, I was interested in these Maca roots."

Your smile grew even bigger. You barely met someone who knew about this root,"You know it? I'm impressed. It's not so common in Eos because it just grows in the outskirts of Altissia."

Ignis saw real happiness sparkling in your eyes and felt bad for crushing your excitement so, he did something he wouldn't usually do, he fibbed, "I know it, yes but... The thing is, I never found one. It's the first time I see some on a market. I always wanted to try it for my cooking but...yeah...", he trailed off, not sure what exactly he should tell you. Ignis had no idea if you bought his clumsy lie or not but your next words made his heart jump a little.

"What about this: I'll buy it and invite you to my place for some baking.", you suggested with a smirk.

Ignis was speechless. You barely knew him and yet, you were sweet and nice, "I really don't want to bother you-"

"You don't. I'll bake something containing the Maca root with or without you. It's your decision to join me or not. What do you say?", you asked with the hope this good-looking, handsome man would follow your invitation. You already felt some kind of connection to him and you really hoped he would feel the same.

Ignis looked at you, at your enchanting smile and your beautiful eyes and all he could think of was: "Alright, I'll join you."

Ignis had been nervous the whole day. The good kind of nervous. While he got ready - showering, changing the suit shirt and doing his hair - his eyes fell on the piece of paper you had given him with your address. Your handwriting was neat and clean, resembling your being in a nice way.

As Ignis was pleased with himself, he left the bathroom. Deep in his thoughts, he hummed along, not paying much attention to his surroundings.

"Iggy? Are you...are you humming?"

Ignis jumped a little by surprise as he heard Prompto's voice, turned around and was faced by all his friends, "I..uhm.. yeah. Why not?"

"Not a common thing, tho.", Gladio said, leaning against the door frame, crossing his arms over his chest, "Are you going out? All dressed up and then this smile on your lips.", he added with a knowing smirk.

"I just got an invitation for some...baking course.", Ignis answered as simply as possible and not to lie at the same time.

"A baking course? How boring.", Noctis said low, still gaming some mobile stuff on his phone, lying on his bed.

"Baking course, huh? That's a reason for you to wear your best shirt?", Gladio asked, closing up on Ignis with a mustering glance.

"There's never not a good reason to make a good first impression, don't you think?", Ignis answered, grabbed his jacket and left the hotel room to head to your place. Excitement was fastening his steps through the slowly calming city. The sun slowly sank behind the horizon and changed the colors of the sky magically. As Ignis reached your place, the first stars were already sparkling in the deep blue firmament.

You had been nervous the whole day. The good kind of nervous. After your spontaneous invitation of a complete stranger, a handsome one but still, you had headed back home to clean up your place. You showered and changed into something more nicer but still comfortable. Just as you finished your hair, someone knocked at your door: three times, firmly and yet kinda soft and you knew it had to be Ignis.

You opened the door with a warm smile which grew even bigger as you saw the good-looking, tall man in front of you, "You made it right on time."

"Of course. I hate being late mostly when it comes to such a nice host.", Ignis said politely, showing you a genuine smile and even bowing a little.

The time was running fast as the two of you had so much fun. You were impressed about Ignis' life and past. Ignis had been honest with you, telling you about Noctis and the royale tasks he did for the prince. You had been interested but not in a nosey way and not because some royalty was involved rather you just wanted to know things about Ignis which was refreshing.

You two shared a bottle of wine, laughter and stories until you remembered the reason why you had invited Ignis, "So, are you still interested in tasting the Maca root?"

Everything had been in such a nice flow that Ignis felt surprised how he could forget about the baking, "Of course. I'm looking forward to seeing what you're up to."

Said and done. The two of you went into the kitchen and prepared the different ingredients. While you explained the recipe to Ignis, he listened attentively to you. Now and then, he caught himself staring at your lips as they were moving. He already was addicted to the way you talked, how you explained things and how easy it was to be himself around you. Your light and friendly character let Ignis relax more and more with each passing second. He could forget the troubles lying ahead of him for one moment and he was more than thankful that you gave him this little peaceful moment.

The cake was in the oven, baking for thirty minutes which gave you two the time for more conversations with another glass of wine. Ignis gave you one glass before he said, "I was convinced the Maca root would come into the dough."

"Sure you can do that. But I like to add it to the frosting. You know it's the contrast of the sweetness of the cake and the little bit of spice in the frosting that makes it thrilling and interesting.", you said, slowly stepping closer to Ignis who was just focused on you, "You will see, the frosting will be more harsh than the cake."

"Oh, like salt and caramel?", Ignis asked, watching every step of yours, "Giving you a little kick while relishing the sweetness?", he asked, matching your tone.

"Yes, or chocolate and chili.", you said low, "Spicing something up that wouldn't get combined usually.", you saw how Ignis stared at your lips. Again. You had noticed it many times before and every time, you had hoped he would just kiss you - the one thing you wanted so desperately - tasting his perfect, pink lips.

Now, even Ignis saw your eyes wandering down to his own mouth and he knew the feelings, the tension he had felt the whole time, had been real. Mutual. He leant forward, keeping your eyes in his spell, almost kissing you, finally giving in to satisfy the yearning he felt - just to get stopped by the alarm for the cake as it went off. Both of you stepped back by surprise like caught teenagers.

While turning around, you cursed under your breath. But quickly, you took out the cake to place it on the counter to cool down. Ignis joined you, showing you a small, sweet smile which calmed your racing heart until the two of you could prepare the frosting.

Just as you were done with blending the ingredients together to get a smooth texture, you looked up at Ignis who had watched you once again. As if seeing him for the first time, you turned over to him completely, "You have so beautiful eyes.", you said softly, slowly removing Ignis' glasses to lay them aside. You saw his cheeks blushing in a soft pink but he still kept eye contact with you.

You could tell that he was the one who barely got this kind of attention but he also seemed to like it. So, you started your next, bold attempt to get closer to this tall and handsome man, "You're really handsome, Ignis.", you whispered, "There's just one thing left to gain pure perfection."

Ignis had noticed how you playfully ignited something deep inside of him he usually ignored: desire. Attraction had brought him this far and the desire to be close to you gave him a reason to stay. Softly, he leant forward, matching the smirk on your lips, "Then, tell me, what is this one thing you're talking about."

"This little spot, right here, on your neck.", you breathed and with your index finger, you smeared a small bit of chocolate frosting over the spot you meant, "Unfortunately, this has to get removed first."

Ignis saw the amusement and hope sparkling in your eyes and how your gaze flickered down on his lips like many other times before, "Well, since this annoys you so much, I'm sure you're willing to volunteer to get rid of that?", he breathed and leant down, giving you better access.

"It would be my pleasure.", you answered lasciviously and just like that, you let your tongue dance across the soft skin of Ignis' neck. The taste of the chocolate accompanied with the scent of Ignis' skin shot goosebumps down your spine.

As Ignis felt your soft tongue sliding along his neck, brushing over a sensitive spot under his ear, he just closed his eyes and enjoyed your attention. You licked two, three times to make sure to get rid of all the 'imperfection' you could find on him and as you left his skin, Ignis already missed your touch.

Slowly, you looked back into Ignis' eyes while licking over your lips, "Now, you're pretty perfect."

Ignis chuckled. He already loved your light attitude. That you were straight forward with your thoughts. And that you were very open with showing what you wanted. You were exactly what he needed. Quickly, Ignis mimicked your move with the frosting and smeared a little bit of it on the corner of your mouth before he smirked, "You know, yn, you're already perfect. You just have some chocolate there."

You chuckled while looking at him with one raised brow, "Then, clean up the spot, Ignis.", you whispered. The way you said his name didn't stay unnoticed by him. You saw his eyes lighten up, the smirk grew a bit bigger and in the next moment, you felt his perfect lips against your own.

Ignis licked away the small bit of chocolate with his lips and tongue, tasting it for the first time with all the ingredients plus your taste and for him, it was the perfect composition. As he was done, Ignis leant back, "That's delicious."

"It's my secret recipe. Cinnamon, chocolate, star anise, Chili and the Maca root we bought on the market.", you explained softly, watching how Ignis cleaned his thumb.

Ignis nodded softly, "Actually, I was speaking of you.", he whispered before he leant forward to kiss you once again and this time without chocolate or trick. He just wanted to taste you finally. Devouring everything of you.

As your lips met, you felt like you were struck by lightning. Ignis was skilled and knew exactly what he did. You started to swoon and out of instinct, you flung your arms around Ignis' neck.

The moment Ignis felt how you were pulling him closer, he stepped forward, grabbed your hips and raised you up to put you on top of the kitchen counter. Stepping between your legs. Ignis explored with his hands what he could find of you. You were warm and soft. He was sure your skin tasted like vanilla and sugar wherever he kissed you.

While you enjoyed Ignis' attention, you also unbuttoned his black suit shirt as quickly as possible. The moment it was open and pulled out of the pants, you let your hands roam over every free spot. Feeling his chiseled abs and muscles tensing under your touch. As Ignis kissed down your neck, you leant your head back to give him more access, "Stay tonight. Stay here.", you asked with your fingers buried into his soft, blonde hair, playing with his strands.

"I have no intention to leave so soon.", Ignis breathed against your skin and was eager to keep this promise. The way you touched him, how you wanted him, drove him crazy. The smell of the different scents clouded his mind and your soft moans and panting let his blood boil in his veins. He already craved to get more of you.

While you scratched down his spine, leaving possessively marks on his skin with your nails, Ignis let his hand slide along your inner thigh. His move was teasingly slow and as he reached your crotch, you groaned, almost loosing your mind by the firm touch that caused so much sexual desire deep inside of your core.

Ignis noticed your desperation, how you seeked closeness to him and his hand. How hungrily you kissed him back, biting into his lower lip to earn a deep, throaty moan. You tugged on his belt, slowly opening it to make it clear what you wanted. He felt exactly the same for you. Nothing could stop Ignis now to have you. His hand slipped under your shirt, touching your soft skin, feeling the small hairs reacting to his touch with goosebumps and all he wanted was to have you lying underneath him while he would cherish every single inch of your body with his lips and his tongue.

Already having some wild fantasies in his mind, he snaked his arms around your middle, giving you the chance to steady yourself with your legs around his hips while he carried you into your bedroom, kicking the door close with his foot to shut out the world to have a little piece of sweet heaven just for himself.

***

The next morning, on his way back to the hotel, Ignis smiled and hummed by the memory of you. You didn't want him to leave but you understood that he couldn't stay much longer. He promised you to visit you once his journey was over - the only promise he feared he couldn't keep. Not knowing what laid ahead on his way.

Ignis hoped everyone was still asleep as he opened the door but as someone took it out of his hand, he knew he got caught in the act.

"Iggy? Are you coming back just...now?", Prompto called out, surprised as he saw his friend in the same clothing as the day before.

"Yeah, kinda.", Ignis said as he got faced by his friends - the thing he had hoped to avoid.

"How was your baking course, Ignis?", Gladio asked with a knowing smirk. Even if Ignis had played cool, he saw the certain signs: the disheveled hair, the open suit shirt and the certain sparkling in the usual very silent man's eyes.

"A gentleman never tells.", Ignis just answered, passing the taller guy to enter the hotel room.

"And what's that? Is that... chocolate?", Prompto asked with a smirk, touching the collar of Ignis's black shirt as he followed his friend.

"I've come up with a new recipe last night. That's all I'll tell you.", Ignis said serious. But as he entered the bathroom to get ready to continue their trip how they had planned, he couldn't stop the smile from spreading on his lips by the mere remembrance of the last night. And by the memory of you: the sweetest dessert he had ever got to taste.
