#Jean gave him the teal gift with the white bow

[graythefae]

It’s his birthday!!! He gets presents and cake and a hug from his little sister (and a kiss from his boyfriend later)

I think I put more effort into the backstory of the birthday banner than the rest of the drawing but that’s okay

+the original sketch I completely improvised in five minutes, featuring Diluc who I ran out of energy to draw

***A/N this was a request from a wattpad follower. Follow up from Friendsgiving: the Christmas Edition. There has been only one re-read. Sorry for any errors. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.💜💜💜

Your pov

It had been a couple weeks since your Friendsgiving meal at Niall's house. Neither of you mentioned that night to any of your friends. With the knowledge that he would be headed home soon; you didn't want to make a big deal about it. Nothing else had happened since that night other than more hardcore flirting and some secret stolen kisses.

Niall had planned a small Christmas dinner and secret Santa gift exchange. Names had been drawn about a week and a half before. You happened to draw Justin Sterling's name. You were just glad that Goulet wouldn't be there.

You placed the bow on Justin's gift before you headed to your room to get ready. You wanted to look good but not like you were trying too hard. You text Courtney to see what she was going to wear. She sent back a picture of a simple Christmas sweater and a pair of black pants.

You picked through the closet and found a red and green plaid high waisted skirt and paired it with a long sleeve, scoop neck black top. You did your makeup with red lips. Ever since you found out it drove him crazy that has been your go to color. When you were satisfied with how you looked you text Niall and told him you were on your way.

Niall's pov

You just finished with the food when the text came through. You couldn't wait to see her. Sure you were happy to see the others, but her especially. You text her back to get her sexy self there fast. You were in a pair jeans and a green jumper. Hair was flat and messy from the fact that you had not got it cut in a long time.

Mully bound into the kitchen to see if you needed him. “Nah I think I got it. Thanks Mully.” He questioned your overly happy mood. “Just glad to see everyone before I head home next week.”

Before anything else could be said there was a buzz at the front door. Mully went to welcome whoever it was. You didn't want to seem too eager to see her. You didn't want the others to catch on about you two; well whatever you two were.

You heard Courtney yell at you as she made her way in the kitchen. “Hey lovely,” you gave her a hug. Sam followed behind her and you hugged him also. Soon after that Justin and his girlfriend Sherri arrived. Drinks had already started to flow but you couldn't take your eyes off the door. Where was she? Finally there was another buzz at the door. You left the group to go let her in.

“Hey,” you smiled down at her.

When she looked up at you her eyes seemed to sparkle. “Hey,” she smiled back at you. You're eyes shifted down to her lips that you had thought about kissing multiple times today. Her lips damn her; they were colored with that shade of red that just drew your attention to them.

Before you let her inside you stepped outside the door pulled behind you. Before you knew what you were doing your hands were on her hips and lips on her lips.

“Well that's a way to welcome your guest.” She joked as she hugged you.

You opened the door up and let her in ahead of you. You joined the group in the kitchen. Everyone welcomed her and Courtney handed her a glass of wine. You watched as she sipped the drink. Your thoughts back to her lips and what could be done with them.

“Ok so now that everyone is here I guess we need to eat before it gets cold,” you called out over the crowd. With Mully's help you sat everything down the center of the table. You had ordered the meal from your favorite Chinese place. You ended up beside her; how convenient. “Got you something,” you whispered to her. She gave you a suspicious look. You knew she liked the steamed dumplings and got her an order. She kissed your cheek and thanked you.

Conversations flowed as free as the drinks and it was entertaining to say the least. Courtney as always was the center of attention. That was fine with you. That just meant that nobody noticed the glances and touching between the two of you.

“So was this short skirt for anyone particular,” you whispered in her ear. Your hand rubbed the skin just above her knee.

“Maybe,” she smirked back at you. “Have to wait and see if he figures it out.” She winked at you. As glad as you were for this gathering you were ready to call it for the night.

After dinner was over you ushered everyone into the lounge room. Mully took over the entertaining job. You let everyone know that you would be right back.

You walked into the kitchen and saw her cleaning up. You pinned her between you and the counter. You nibbled on her ear and kissed down the back of her neck.

She didn't try to fight you off, but she leaned into your body. “Umm you've got guest in the other room.” She reminded you.

“Yeah and I've got you here,” you pressed your hips to her backside. You kissed the sweet spot below her ear and drew a moan from her lips. You only backed away when you heard Mully call out for the two of you. You slid you hand up her leg just under her skirt when you yelled that you would be right there.

Your pov

Niall had been a little handsy all night. Little touch here hand rested on your thigh under the table briefly. Everytime his skin made contact with yours it felt like fire. You wished this party would end soon so you could get your hands on him properly. You couldn't put all the flirting on him. You had leaned into him pressing against him here and there. Let your hand land on his arm and give it a squeeze.

“So are we doing secret Santa now or what?” Justin asked.

You could have kissed him for that. The sooner this was done the sooner everyone would leave. Niall had the job of being Santa since it was his party. Everyone took a seat and opened the gifts. With the $25 limit they were nice or goofy items. You had gotten a mermaid tail blanket knitted with purple, green, and teal yarn.

You thanked Mully for it and he asked how you knew it was from him. “Because you get sick and tired hearing me and Niall fight over his blanket and you knew I wanted one of these.

You saw the side eye Niall shot Mully and you couldn't help but laugh. He looked back at you and asked what was so funny. “I don't want to come over and see you using my mermaid blanket sir.”

After the gifts were opened and a little more wine you needed the bathroom. You grabbed the hidden present from your bag on your way there. On your trip back you were grabbed around the waist and pulled into an empty room. Lips smashed to yours before you could make a sound. Hands roaming over your body your back pressed against the wall. Your empty hand was in Niall's hair fingers twisted in it. God you could stay like this forever.

He ended the kiss but never moved away from your body.

“I know I didn't get your name but I got you a little something.” He said in a hushed tone.

You smiled, “Might have gotten you a little something too.” You winked at him and showed him the box in your hand. Niall took it and asked if he could open it. You told him he could but you needed to get back or they were going to think something. “Oh and just an FYI,” you kissed his lips. “Those belong in a set. You'll have to wait for that later.” You leave him in the room and join your friends.

Niall's pov

You watched her walk out of the room and couldn't help the thoughts you had about that little skirt pushed up over her hips. You looked at the wrapped box in your hand for a second. The tag on it read: To: Naughty Nialler; From: Naughty Santa. You couldn't help the smirk that formed over your lips.  Inside you found what looked like red and white striped socks. You pulled them out of the box only to find out you were wrong. They unrolled and you stood there holding a pair of silk candy cane stockings.

“Holy Jesus,” you let the words slip out through parted lips as you shook your head. A million thoughts and visions ran through your mind. “Ok got to get everyone out of here now,” you huffed aloud. You took the stockings to your room and left them on the bed. You grabbed the bag with her gift in it. Had to admit that you thought your gift from her was going to be way more fun.

You dropped the bag on the table and text her to meet you in the kitchen. You hear her say it was her boss she needed to make a call. She joined you in the room and this time she instigated the kiss.

“You are so wrong for that ya know. Thought ya got me some socks. Jesus woman I'm ready to kick everyone out,” you run your hands down her skirt and around to her backside.

“So I got ya something but it's got nothing on yours.” You slid the bag over to her. She stayed between your arms as she took to bag. You reached down and kissed her neck a time or two as she pulled the paper out.

“Are these what I think they are?” She pulled the case out to look at it. “Niall you shouldn't have.”

“It's no big deal. Just remember you going on about how much you liked'em a few days ago. Plus keeps ya from stealing mine.” You couldn't help the smile that crept across your face.

She took the new pair of Ray Bans out of the case and slipped them on. “How do I look?”

“Amazing,” I kissed her. “As always.”

“Niall you really shouldn't have. They cost too much for a pair of sunglasses.” She tried to argue with me.

“Yeah and you shouldn't have teased me.” My hand went back to her hips then around to squeeze her backside.

She put the glasses back in the case and in the bag. Then wrapped her hands around my neck and hooked her thumbs under my jaw. She pulled me in and kissed me. It was one of the most intense kisses we had shared. When she broke the kiss there was a wicked look on her face.

“Better get back to the party,” she winked as she wiped a thumb over the corner of my lips. “Don't think we both need to wear my color.” She walked out of my arms and joined everyone back in the lounge.

I took a second and adjusted my situation she had caused. I grabbed a beer and headed to the lounge. Courtney asked where I had been hiding. I lied, “Got a call from my mum. So what did I miss?”

I stood by the fireplace and nursed my beer as I watched my guest and internally wished all but one of them gone. As if Justin could read my mind he reminded Sherri that they had to go to someone from his office house. Two down and three to go. Sam checked the time and told Courtney if they were going to go see the movie tonight they should go. Yes, go see the movie.

I walked them to the door and thanked them for coming. Had a moment with each of them since I was leaving next week and wouldn't see them for a good two months if not longer.

I come back to find her and Mully in the kitchen cleaning up. She was leaned over the table to grab a plate. I moved behind her and trapped her between my arms. “So, I'll be going out after we clean up. Let you two have the house for whatever you want,” Mully said without even a glance over at us.

I stood to start to protest that he was crazy. He cut me off, “I'm not blind or deaf. I've known since a couple days after Thanksgiving.”

“Mully it's not what you think,” she said with a slight blush over her cheeks.

He finished loading the dishwasher and turned to face us. “I knew you two would hook up. Been waiting for it since you started coming around. So I'm going to go. Might stay at a friend's tonight,” he winked at us as he left the room.

We looked at each other and laughed. “Not as slick as we thought huh?” She covered her mouth with her hand. You wrapped her arms up around your shoulders. You wrapped yours around her waist and pulled her against your body. “So how about this gift you got me?” You kissed from her neck up to her ear and took time to find that sweet spot behind her ear. She tilted her head with a moan. God you loved the sounds you could pull from her.

Your pov

Your hands found their way to his hair as his lips assaulted my neck. The things I wanted to do to this man were obscene. “What about that gift?” I asked with a heavy breath.

He removed his mouth from my skin. “When do I get to see the rest of it?” Niall waggled his eyebrows at me.

“Depends,” I kissed his lips, “on if,” another kiss, “you want the full effect or not.” I kissed him again this time we deepened it when he tilted my head back his a hand full of my hair.

“Full effect,” he whispered against your neck before he gave it a good suck and bite.

You moaned at the brief sharp pain from his teeth. His hands were on the back of my legs fingers slid up my skin up my skirt to find the silky fabric underneath. “Better hurry before I change my mind and lay ya out here on the table.”

You thought about that for a moment and didn't see the problem with that. He smacked your backside, “Go on then.” He moved away from you. “Gonna go lock up. Give ya a couple minutes.”

You grabbed his shirt before he got away from you. “Don't be too long,” you whispered in his ear just before you tugged on his lobe with your teeth.

You made your way to his bedroom and kicked off your shoes. You took the stockings into the bathroom to put them on and to freshen up. Just as you reapplied the red lipstick you heard Niall in the bedroom. “Be out in just a second,” you called out to him. You slid on his bathrobe and walked to the doorway. You watched as he took his sweater off and tossed it to a nearby chair. He stood there in his jeans with his back turned to you. You loved that view of him. His shoulders and arms looked so good from where he had been working out. His back and the long lean muscles made you want to run your nails down his back so bad.

You made your way over to him and hugged him from behind. Your hands splayed across his chest you left light kisses across his shoulders. When you finished he turned to face you. “What's this for,” he tugged at the robe.

“So you can unwrap your present.” You stepped away from him as he reached for the belt of his robe. You pushed his hand away, “First let's get you more comfortable.” You went to work of getting him out of those jeans. After he was free of the jeans you could see the affect you had on him.

“Now can I see my present?” His voice a little more husky than before. His eyes roamed your body but found their way back to your eyes.

You crashed your lips to his, and he pulled you closer to him. His hands found the front of the robe and pulled it away from your chest to get a sneak peek. You pulled away and pushed him slowly to the bed. You put one foot beside him with pointed toes, “You like?”

He ran a hand up over the material and leaned in to kiss your thigh.

You moved your leg back down and heard him groan. “Killin’ me,” he let out with a deep breath.

You stood between his legs and undid the knot in the robe belt. His hands slid between the opening and found the soft skin of your hips. Niall ran his hands up you sides to your shoulders and pushed the robe off of you. It fell to the ground to leave you in nothing but candy cane striped bra and panties set with matching stockings.

“Never wanted a candy cane so bad in my entire life,” he said as he sat back to take it all in. His hands finally made their way back to your body. He palmed your breast and ran his thumbs over your sensitive nipples. He kissed your stomach down to the top of your red and white panties. He tucked his fingers in the waistband of them and pulled them down your legs. One hand gripped around the back of your thigh. The other moved over you lower stomach.

You straddled one of his thighs and moved as close to him as you could. You wrapped your arms around his neck and whispered, “Merry Christmas baby,” into his ear.

He let out a groan you were sure the neighbors could hear. Niall removed his hands from you and removed your bra. He stood from the bed as he moved you from his leg. He went to his night stand and found what he was looking for. He moved you to the bed and just took in the view. He slipped out of his boxers and you couldn't help but watch as his erection sprang from the material that had kept it tucked away. You sat up and lightly ran a finger up and down the length. He hissed at the sensation of your touch. You stroke gently with one hand and take the foil packet with your free hand. You release him to open the packet and notice the shiver that went through his body. You rolled the condom down his length. You placed your hands on his hips and pulled him closer. He placed his knees on the bed. You moved back on the bed and he managed to move between your legs. He leaned down and kissed your exposed thighs that the stockings didn't cover. His hand found its way to you slit, and dipped a finger inside.

You let out a breath that you had not realized you held in. “Seems like some naughty Santa is ready for some fun.”

You were so hot and ready for him. You were ready to skip the foreplay. “She sure is, and she needs it now,” you almost sounded commanding.

He skipped the teasing and leaned down to taste you. His tongue lapped at your entrance before he moves on to your clit. You closed your eyes and moaned at the friction. Before you know it he was gone. You looked to see what happened. He sat up and stroked himself before he lined himself up to press into you. You licked your lips in anticipation as you watched him. He leaned over your body and kissed your mouth as he pushed inside. His mouth over yours he took in the moan you let out. He kept still inside you as he worked your lips over with his. He sat up and looked you over again. His hands fumbled with your breast, and all the sensations were driving you mad. He finally moved nearly pulling completely out but pushed back into you. His slow and steady pace was not what you expected. It was torture, mind numbing torture. His hands roamed over your body. You locked your stocking covered legs around his middle to keep him close and allow him in deeper. He thrust became harder and came faster than they had been.

All this was taking its toll on your mind and body. You let out moans and incoherent words as he continued to work on your body. You let your hands roam over his arms, shoulders and chest before your hands fisted in his hair. Your body started to tingle then turned into a full on throb. It traveled your entire body till you thought you were going to explode.

You felt your walls contract around him as he moved in and out. You felt him stutter his actions when it happened. You tried to fight off your impending orgasm. You knew it was torture, but you didn't want it to end. You grabbed onto the cover as your back arched slightly off the bed.

“That's it. That's my girl,” he praised you. Niall knew that you were close and he wouldn't stop till you let go. “Come on baby let go. Cum for me.”

You called out his name, “Can't wait,” you panted. “Almost there,” you let out another moan.

Your muscles continued to work on him with each thrust and the sounds that left your body. Niall was near his release and you could tell by his actions and the look on his face. “Cum with me Niall,” you reached a shaky hand to his face and pulled him down for a kiss. He thrusted into you and caused you to release from the kiss in the loudest moan you have ever heard come from your mouth.

You had no more control as your body gave in to the mind numbing release. You felt him go still and heard noises come from him as he bucked into your body with his own release.

If not for the fact that you were on the mattress you would have collapsed to the floor.

When you came back to your senses you noticed Niall was laid over top of you. His head between your breast. He had the most beautiful blissful look on his face. You wrapped your legs and arms around him the best you could.

After you both recovered he mumbled something about a shower. You joined him in the steamy shower. The two of you actually managed to clean up between playful kisses and gentle touches.

“So was thinking this is some shit timing for all this.” He kissed your shoulder. “I mean with me going away for the holidays and all.”

“Yeah maybe a little bad timing,” you agreed.

“You know you could come visit me in London for New Years.” He kissed up your neck just above where the water hit you.

“I've got plans to go home for New Years,” you answered with a heavy heart.

“Oh well ok. Just thought we could see where this was going. Don't want to be gone that long not knowing.”

You turned to face him. “Not knowing what?”

“What this is,” he motioned between the two of you. “Is this just a thing we do now, or is it more? Do you want to keep just doing what we did or do you want more?”

You were shocked to hear this coming from him. You didn't know what to say. You did want more of him from him. But right now with him ready to leave in just days. That was not the time to have this discussion. “We can't do this right now. Not after what just happened. Emotions are heightened and you're about to leave. We can't start anything serious right now.” You tried to convince not only him but also yourself. “Let's use this time away from each other and see how we feel when you get back.”

He agreed but you could tell that he wasn't one hundred percent sold on the idea. “What's the saying? If you love something set it free.”

“If it comes back to you then it's meant to be,” he finished the words for you.

Short!Innocent!Reader Word count: 1744

You were that girl. The one that seemed to always be smiling, always happy and cheerful. Many pondered on the thought of you joining the Survey Corps, better yet, the military in general. But they couldn't argue that you were a fierce cadet under that gorgeous exterior. In the beginning a lot of the cadets underestimated you due to your level of cuteness and your height but they quickly learned to get rid of that idea when the saw you in action. Many of the boys have sparred with you thinking it was going to be rainbows and cupcakes and they all got their ass handed to them. A lot of people compare your skills to Mikasa, some say even better, but you quickly dismiss the idea when you hear it.

You had a signature look. Everyone knew you were coming when they see the pretty flower crown resting on your (color) locks. Various colors such as red, white, lavender and yellow always seemed to be woven to perfection into your hair. The flower crowns, your pink lips, your big (color) eyes and the slight flush of pink that always seemed to be on your cheeks left the boys enchanted. But you honestly had no real interest in any of them.

Eren is cute but Mikasa would probably slit your throat. Jean is pretty handsome but he can be a little mean sometimes. Armin is adorable but he seems to be more into books than a girlfriend. Reiner can be a little ...overbearing but his muscles are nice though. No matter what Connie says, he's totally into Sasha. And Bertholdt is too shy for his own good.

But there is one guy that sparked your interest but he would never-

You were snatched out of your thoughts by someone taking off your crown. You turned around to see a very smug looking Jean. You stood up from your spot in the mess hall and tried to take it from him but he held it in the air.

"Jean, give it back!" You pouted. You tried jumping up to get it from his grasp but it was no use, you were too short. "What do I get in return?" Jean said cooly with the same smirk. You tilted your head to the side with the face of confusion.

"Well, what do you want?" You asked in the cutest voice. "I don't know, Reiner. What do we want?" Jean said then tossed your crown behind you. You quickly turned around and bumped into another tall body. You looked up to see Reiner holding your crown high in the air like a prize. "A kiss from the short, flower crown princess herself." He said with a shit eating grin. You blushed a bit at his comment but continued to try to reach for your crown.

"Oi. Braun, Kirschtein. Do you two want stable duty while the rest of us have dinner tonight?" A low and stern voice asked. A voice that everyone feared but you seemed to get butterflies when you heard it. Captain Levi. It was so ironic how you had lovey dovey eyes for a man that was the polar opposite from you. Nonetheless, every time you saw him it made your day a bit brighter.

"No, sir!" They said in unison. "Then give back her shit!" Levi ordered. His voice was almost like venom and it shot right through the boys. Reiner quickly gave back your crown and you had a satisfied look on your face as you placed it on top of your head. "Thanks, Captain!" You beamed happily while giving him a salute. A piece of your hair fell in your face and you blew it away refusing to break the salute. "Tch. Don't let it happen again. I don't have time to save your sorry ass." He said before walking off. You felt a little discouraged but you quickly shook it off keeping in mind that he talks to everyone like that.

You sat back down and noticed Sasha and Mikasa were now sitting beside you. Mikasa in sitting across and Sasha to your left. "What was that about?" Sasha asked before stuffing her face with bread. "Jean and Reiner being meanies. Captain told them to stop" You replied.

"Maybe they just wanted to sport your crown." Mikasa said quietly with a hint of amusement in her voice. You giggled lightly and started to eat. "No, really (Name). Anyone would love to wear one." Sasha said in between chews.

Your eyes lit up when you thought of a plan. A beautiful, flowery plan.

Later that day

You were so unbelievably tired. After a long day of training and chores you headed out to a field just outside of HQ with a basket. You sat there for hours weaving together flower crowns for every in the Survey Corps. No two crowns were alike and you did your best to correspond it to the receiver. You smiled to yourself as you put the final flower into the last crown you did. You put it in the basket with the others and soon heading back to base.

The Next Day

Levi woke up feeling shittier than usual that morning. He had about three hours of sleep the night before and the rest was just mindless shitty paperwork. He prayed for a day where he could just relax and actually get a full night's rest. Levi got out of bed that morning and did his usual routine by getting dressed and heading to the mess hall to get his tea. Everything seemed normal until he seen multiple cadets AND superiors wearing flower crowns. Levi furrowed his brows in confusion. Turning a corner he saw Eren talking with Armin and surprise surprise they had flower crowns on. Eren's was decorated with large orange, red and the occasional white flowers and Armin's was made with teal and yellow flowers.

"Jaeger! Arlert!" The two boys looked in Levi's direction and gave him a quick salute. "Sir!" They both said in unison. Levi waved the salute off. "Where did you two get those flower crowns?" Levi asked with the same monotone voice and bored expression. Eren and Armin kind of looked at each other. "From (Name), sir." Eren said. "You're dismissed." Levi said. Eren and Armin hurried away thanking the gods that they weren't in his presence anymore.

Levi entered the mess hall he saw if not everyone, almost everyone, wearing a flower crown. His eye twitched slightly as he went to go get his tea. Walking past the superior table he even saw fucking Erwin sporting a green and red flower crown.

‘What in the fuck? Why does everyone else get a shitty crown and I don't?’ Levi thought as he poured his tea. It was safe to say he was a little jealous.

Levi headed back to his office after he was finished pouring his tea to finish the last bit of paperwork he had. He was particularly pissed off that everyone at his table was flaunting the fucking crown that he didn't have.

Levi was in deep thought scribbling at the papers in front of him when he heard a soft knock at the door. "Name and business." He said. A familiar yet soft voice answered. "Cadet (First) (Last)...I'm here to give you a gift." You said clutching at your basket nervously. "Enter." You sighed hoping to get your nerves out but it failed. You turned to doorknob and pushed the door open entering his office. You looked around and noticed it was more organized that your life. You stood in front of his desk.

You got instant butterflies when you saw his bored, steel gray eyes on you. The blood from your body rushed to your ears and dusted your cheeks with a light shade of pink. "Captain, I made this for you," you reached into your basket for the final crown that had been in there. You pulled it out and smiled at your work because you had actually made this special for him. The crown was woven beautifully with large green, white and black flowers and a pink bow in the back of it. "I hope you like it." You smiled softly handing the crown over to him. He reached over his desk and looked at it. You couldn't tell if he was happy or unamused because he had the same facial expression: Bored.

You shifted slightly. "Well, cadet. I am very...pleased with this. Thank you." His voice had the slightest hint of happiness in it and it was enough to make you extremely happy. "You're very welcome, sir!" You beamed and started to head toward the door. "Wait, (Name)." He called and you stopped in your tracks. You turned around with a slightly confused look and you were a bit surprised that he called you by your first name.

"Yes, sir?" He stood up walking towards you. You dry swallowed as he got closer and the same heat on your cheeks was growing larger as he looked down at you. "... Do you think you could... help me put this on?" He asked awkwardly while looking down at the crown and rubbing the back of his neck. You smiled. "Of course, Captain-" You gently took the crown out of his hands. "Call me Levi." He corrected you. "Levi." You smiled at the way his name felt rolling off your tongue.

He was a few inches taller than you so you stood on your tippy toes and gently put the crown in place. It fit his head perfectly. Levi watched you closely, low key admiring your beauty. He felt vulnerable inside when he saw your lips slightly parted, your eyebrows furrowed cutely in concentration and your cheeks had a tint of pink to them.

"There we are!" You smiled clasping your hands together looking at your Captain with a flower crown on his head. The Lance Corporal, Levi Ackerman had on a fucking flower crown and it was beautiful. "You're a good kid," He said and you smiled bashfully. "Thanks for the gift, brat." Levi leaned over and gave you a soft kiss on the cheek. You felt your eyes widen and your hand touched your cheek as you looked up at him. "T-Thanks, Ca- Levi." You thanked him, not for the compliment but for the kiss.

Maybe you should give him gifts more often?
