From all the angst in Crossroads right now, I just want some light-hearted, fluffy and smutty cake.

A lot of this is pretty old and I just never published it - I can see how different my writing has changed over the years / months.

Protective Reiner / Feral Reiner

A/N: For the training exercise, I actually used an online name picker to pair up the teams it's all accidental who ends up with who.

ALSO

I will now and always canon Reiner to be a total blushing mess pretty much every time you're intimate with him. But this one he's a little more firm. Still an adorable mess, though.

Chapter I

“You’re training with Annie again this afternoon?” Bertolt frowned as he walked with Reiner across the training yard.

Reiner cocked up an eyebrow and gripped the towel that was around the back of his neck. His narrow golden eyes glanced over at his best friend. “You sound disapproving.” He probed, almost nervously, before running a hand through his blonde hair.

Bertolt looked at the ground as he walked, his face beginning to blush. “It’s just surprising. I thought you and Annie didn’t really see eye-to-eye.”

“We don’t.”

“Oh…”

Bertolt didn’t want to probe further without giving away his true thoughts, but Reiner knew him too well. Slapping his large hand onto Bertolt’s back, he let out a chuckle. “Don’t worry about it, it’s not like that.”

Bertolt’s face turned an even deeper crimson. “Like what? I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Yeah, whatever.” Reiner chuckled shaking his head. “I really don’t see Annie in that way.”

Relief washed over Bertolt and his shoulders that had previously tensed up began to relax. “Oh, I mean that’s…good to know. I guess?” He tried to shrug it off casually but failed.

“If it bothers you so much, why don’t you come and train with us?” Reiner asked as they walked by three male cadets who were huddled together suspiciously. Reiner's golden eyes followed them as they went by, wondering what the hell they were sniggering about.

“Oh man. What I wouldn’t give for that.” One of them laughed. “She would taste so good. I’m going to bet she tastes like sweet berries.”

“y/n…I’d like to see her down on her knees.” Another sighed dramatically as they began to laugh.

Reiner froze, his eyes wide.

Bertolt looked back at his friend, wondering why he’d stopped so suddenly.

“I mean, she’s like a goddess. I’ve never seen someone so fucking hot.”

Reiner’s eyebrow began to twitch as he flushed hot with white rage.

“Reiner?” Bertolt frowned.

Turning, Reiner took a few steps towards the group before towering over them. “Say that again.” He muttered, looking at the one in particular who had mentioned seeing y/n on her knees.

As the man became visibly nervous, he looked at his friends for support before glancing back at the large Reiner Braun, who towered over him. He was also confused as to why Reiner was visibly upset at their conversation. It’s not like they hadn’t noticed him staring at y/n too. Reiner suddenly grabbed the cadet’s shirt before lifting him up with ease, putting his face close to his with a terrifying scowl.

“Reiner!” Bertolt gasped, totally taken by surprise.

“H-hey man, I’m sorry if I said anything that offended you. I thought you were like us.” He stammered.

“Like you?” He arched his eyebrow.

“Yeah, you know. I remember on the first day you mentioned how hot you thought Christa was. And well, we’ve seen you staring at y/n too so –”

Reiner slammed him onto the ground with force, pushing him onto his knees from behind, pinning his arms back. Winded, the man coughed and winced both with pain and fear.

“Hey, calm down Reiner!” One of the others winced, not knowing what to do. “He didn’t mean anything by it!”

“Reiner!” Bertolt snapped again, taking a step forward.

“Stay out of this, Bertolt.” Reiner barked, glancing back.

Reiner's chest growled with rage, reminiscent of some wild animal with its heckles up; teeth bore into a snarl, arms trembling with adrenalin and pupils wide and dilated.

Timidly, Bertolt stepped back looking apprehensive.

“Don’t ever compare me to you low lives.” Reiner growled, tightening his grip.

The cadet let out a cry of pain. “Stop. I’m sorry!”

“If I ever hear any of that filth coming from your mouths about her again, I’ll break your arms. Got it?!”

Bertolt’s eyes widened as everything started to make sense.

“Sure! I won’t say it again!” He whimpered from the ground.

“And if I see you anywhere near her, I’ll break your goddamn neck.”

“Okay, Okay I get it!” He cried.

Reiner released his grip with a shove, before turning and storming away, his temper still high. The three men scuttled away confused, scared and totally emasculated as Bertolt followed his friend's long strides. “Are you alright?”

“Fine.” He seethed.

“Reiner…” Bertolt placed his hand on his shoulder, making him stop.

He inhaled deeply through his nose and began to calm down a little.

“What was all that about?” Bertolt then asked.

“It doesn’t really matter.” Reiner shook his head. “It’s over now.”

“Reiner… Do you have feelings for y/n?”

“What? No.” A pink hue etched over the bridge of his nose and cheeks. “Didn’t you hear them? It was disgusting. I was sticking up for my comrade.”

“This isn’t like you. Come on Reiner, I need to know. Because if you do, it’s going to complicate things.”

“Don’t you think I know that?!” He snapped.

Bertolt just frowned, taken aback.

“I’m sorry. Look, I just need some space.” Reiner sighed before shaking his head and striding off, leaving a concerned Bertolt frowning after him.

Later that afternoon, Annie was facing y/n in the forest as they both bobbed up and down doing squats, winding down after their training session.

“I thought Reiner would have joined us again today.” y/n panted as she moved.

“He was supposed to. Or rather, he said he was going to. No skin off my nose if he doesn’t show. It’s not like I’m too fond of him anyway.” Annie muttered in reply, her usual bored tone and expression.

“Yeah I noticed you two don’t really get on that great.”

“It’s a bit ballsy of him to ask me to train with us and not turn up though.” Annie said, rolling her blue eyes. “I train alone for a reason. I don’t mind being with you because you don’t whine like a bitch when I push you hard.”

y/n grinned as she panted. “That’s why I like training with you. Speaking of which; Sasha, Connie and I are heading into Trost tomorrow. You should come.”

“I don’t think so.”

“Why not?”

“It’s been two years. Have you not noticed that I’m not really a people person?”

y/n let out a small laugh. “Yes, I’ve noticed. But I’m still inviting you anyway. I risked a range of insults just asking you. So maybe, for once, you should just accept that someone actually likes you.”

Annie stopped, her eyes wide. She was actually speechless. Yet that touched her in a way she didn’t really like. Frowning she turned away. “That’ll do for today. We don’t want to be too sore for Trost tomorrow.”

With a smile of triumph, y/n followed suit and stopped before they began to head for the showers.

It was dinner time and the cadets were sitting in the mess hall. Eren, Mikasa, Armin and y/n were at their usual table together, eating their usual meal they all had pretty much every day.

“Eren. You were too careless today.” Mikasa muttered. The usual conversation…

“Huh?” Eren looked at her, a frown tugging at his mouth. “What are you talking about?”

“In training this morning. You almost crashed into a tree. Twice.”

“Oh come on.” He sighed, placing a hand on his head. “Not this again. Stop trying to babysit me. I’m not a little kid, Mikasa.”

“Then stop acting like one and take more care when you’re flying around in your gear.”

Wanting to step away from the impending argument, y/n got to her feet as dinner was coming to an end anyway, and people were already leaving. She then spotted Reiner getting to his feet at his table. Making her way over to him she smiled beautifully, making his heart beat double time.

“Reiner, where were you today? I hope we don’t push you too hard.” She joked adorably.

“Sorry.” He smiled meekly. “Just having an off day. Didn’t wanna hold you guys back.”

Her smile faded replaced by a head tilt of concern. “Is everything okay?”

“It is now you’re here.” He smirked.

Bertolt glanced up. He didn’t like where this was going or how his best friend was obviously secretly madly in love with y/n.

Typical Reiner. She thought. Such a flirt…

“Okay.” She nodded before turning away and walking off. She was never impressed by a lady's man.

Clearly deflated, Reiner ran his hand through his hair in frustration.

Jean let out a chuckle. “I didn’t think I’d ever see you with that look.”

“Hm? What look?”

Jean narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice. “You have a thing for y/n.”

“Who doesn’t?” Reiner smirked.

“Drop the act big guy.” Jean smiled slyly. “It’s becoming more and more obvious by the day. You like her a little more than most. Am I right?” He glanced at Bertolt, whose face gave it all away. “See? I knew it.”

Reiner sat back down, also lowering his voice. “Is it that obvious?”

“It is now.” Jean grinned. “I had my suspicions before. But over the last few weeks, it’s becoming more apparent.”

Bertolt felt relieved that he had someone to discuss this with. “Reiner almost put someone in the infirmary earlier, for talking about her.”

Reiner shot him a dark look, before giving in. “Okay. I admit it. I got it, and I got it bad. What the hell do I do?”

“How should I know?” Jean scoffed. “I’m not exactly popular with the ladies.”

Reiner bit his tongue. He wanted to just spill everything out, but he didn’t want to ruin his macho image.

“Why don’t you try telling her how you feel?” Marco added, listening in.

“Marco.” Reiner groaned. “Stop eavesdropping.”

“Sorry, you guys were just whispering so I thought something was wrong.” He frowned, his innocent eyes sparkling.

“You saw how she reacted just now. She’s not interested. I’m not going to just tell her.”

By now, most of the people had finished their meal and had left the mess hall. Ymir sat behind them, wondering what they were muttering about.

“I honestly wish I could offer some good advice. But I really am clueless about these things myself. Women are complicated.” Jean shrugged. “Besides, I thought you had a thing for Christa.”

“She’s super cute, sure. But no one is anywhere near the same level as y/n. At least, in my eyes.” He felt instant regret as those words left his lips, his macho-man, flirty façade quickly slipping away.

“Oh my god.” Ymir sighed, standing up and walking over. “You’re all hopeless.”

Reiner flinched. Ymir would definitely wag her tongue about this to someone.

“Get your nose out for once, Ymir.” Jean snapped. “Go bother someone else.”

She smiled slyly. “Oh? And here I was, innocently overhearing you in an empty room and was going to offer you some advice.”

Reiner’s ears pricked up. “Advice? Ymir, you’re a woman. What do I do?”

Walking over casually, she shrugged. “Advice is time. And time is money. And after that little greeting, I’m not really in the mood to be helping out a bunch of losers.”

“Come on, Ymir.” Reiner pleaded. “What do you know?”

She sat opposite him, next to Jean. “I know a lot about her. We sleep in the same room, after all.”

“Okay… And?” He began getting annoyed.

Ymir let out a sigh, quickly losing interest. “Look. She’s not the type to be won over simply by openly flirting with her. That’ll make her think you’re just a lady's man, out to get whatever you can. You gotta stop that shit, and stop it now, else you’ll have no chance.”

“Then, how will she know I’m interested if I don’t flirt?”

“Yeah, how?” Jean asked, taking mental notes.

"Urgh. Men are so dumb.” She got to her feet. “After that advice, I’m sure you’ll figure it out.”

Reiner followed her. “Come on, Ymir. I’ll give you whatever you want. It’s annoying the crap out of me.”

“If you like her more than just wanting to have sex with her, then show it. It really is that simple.”

Reiner blinked before nodding. “Right. Okay. Thanks, Ymir.”

“You owe me.” She prodded his shoulder with a finger She turned and began to walk away. This should be interesting…

Chapter II

“Alright shit heads!” Shadis roared as he addressed his cadets the next morning. It was a chilly dawn and the sun was just beginning to peep over the horizon as the sleepy and grouchy greenhorns stood like zombies in the yard. It had been a surprise exercise, Shadis waking them up at the crack of dawn with a loud bell almost gave them a heart attack.

“I’m putting you in squads of two. Your goal is to grab your equipment which is located to my left.” He gestured towards a large pile of heavy-looking backpacks. “Grab one each, as well as a map. You’ll be heaving this luggage up through the woods to your appointed location. The first squad to reach the destination gets the highest points towards your final grade.”

That perked them all up a little. Making top ten was most people’s goal. One of the proctors stood to his right with a bowl filled with small pieces of paper.

“When you hear your names, group up with your teammate and go.” Shadis then explained, before giving a curt nod to the proctor.

The proctor proceeded to dip his hand into the bowl and pulled out two names. “Springer and Braus!”

“You gotta be kidding me…” Shadis muttered, covering his face with his hand.

Happy that they’d been teamed together, Sasha and Connie quickly ran to the bags.

“Jaeger and Braun!” Eren and Reiner nodded to one another before heading to the bags.

“Bott and Wagner!” Marco and Thomas followed suit.

“Carolina and l/n!” Mina and y/n smiled at one another and made their way to the others.

“Arlert and Hoover!” Armin and Bertolt stepped forward.

“Ymir and Kirstein!” Ymir and Jean sighed, not too fond of being paired together.

“Ackerman and Leonheart!” Everyone’s eyes glanced over at the pair. They were both so similar yet never got on well. They were both quiet, reserved and well basically, both badasses. But Mikasa didn’t tolerate how blunt Annie was especially when it came to Eren. Without a word though, they both joined the others.

Letting out a sigh of exasperation, Shadis turned and glared at the young proctor who was pulling the names. “Why did you put in an odd number?”

The proctor flinched, looking at Christa who was now standing alone.

“We’ll put her with the next group after this.” Shadis rolled his eyes. “Go fetch them, before I kick your ass back into cadets myself.”

“S-sir.” The young proctor nodded before scuttling off.

“Alright!” He barked, turning to face the group who were all geared up. “Go!”

Twenty minutes into the exercise, and to no ones surprise, Mikasa and Annie were in the lead. The usual peaceful forest was now heavy with the sounds of jogging footsteps along with panting as the Cadets made their way along the trail, following their map.

“I can’t believe we have to do this on an empty stomach,” Sasha complained to Connie as they ran.

“And being woken up this early. Man…I can’t wait until we graduate.”

“Just over a year to go. …Not that I’m counting or anything.”

“Come on, you two! Keep it up.” Mina yelled from behind them as she and y/n quickly caught up andovertookk them.

Mina’s face was flushed red trying to keep up with y/n. She didn’t want to let her comrade down.

“Okay…” y/n panted to her as they put distance between themselves, Connie and Sasha. “Jean and Ymir are ahead, I just saw them a moment ago.”

“R-right.” Mina huffed. “Let’s go.”

“Are you okay? Come on, you can do this. The pain is temporary, the victory will last.” She encouraged her friend. Mina nodded, determination blazing behind her eyes.

Further up the trail, Reiner and Eren panted heavily being in second place.

“How you doing?” Reiner asked.

“Good. You?” Eren puffed.

Reiner nodded. “I doubt we’ll catch up to those two. I mean we could try.”

Eren glanced at the map as he ran. “The trail forks up ahead. We can go left which is shorter but harder. Or we can go right which is longer but on a more level terrain.”

“I’m good with left. You?”

“Yeah. Let’s do this!” Eren grinned.

Armin was struggling, wheezing heavily as he ran. Bertolt glanced back at him. “You okay?”

Not being able to speak, he just nodded in reply. The backpack was pretty heavy and the straps were digging into his shoulders. Bertolt stopped, resulting in Armin putting his hands on his knees doubled over. “S-sorry…I…”

“It’s okay. Here.” Bertolt handed him his moleskin filled with water.

“T-thank…you.” Armin gasped for air like a fish out of water, one eye squinted and his face like beetroot.

“Don’t push yourself too hard.” Bertolt said gently. “It’s not worth injuring yourself.”

“I don’t want to drag you down.” Armin muttered. “I’m tired of holding people back.”

Bertolt frowned, not really knowing what to say. “I know how you feel.”

Armin seemed surprised at this. “What do you mean, Bertolt?”

“I know what it’s like being the one to hold people back. See, with Reiner he’s outgoing and strong. I’m timid…weak.”

“You’re not weak.” Armin smiled kindly. “Maybe you should just be more assertive.”

“Maybe…”

Armin decided to change the subject for now. “I saw a fork on the map when we first got them. Which way do we go?” Armin asked.

“Right. We take the right path.”

Armin nodded, handing him back his water. “Okay… Let’s go.”

Reiner and Eren had reached the fork in the path when they decided to take a quick breather.

“No guesses for which way Annie and Mikasa went.” Eren chuckled.

Reiner took a deep drink from his water, nodding. “Hm.”

“Come on, you can do it!” A familiar voice sounded.

They both instantly knew who the voice belonged to, and both of their chests began to feel fluttery and weird. Before they could react, y/n rounded the corner carrying two backpacks and clearly struggling.

“y/n? Why do you have two packs?” Eren asked as she approached them.

She dropped them immediately, panting.

“There’s your answer.” Reiner muttered, pointing over to Mina who was now rounding the corner. She was staggering more than running and sweat dripped down her forehead.

“Oh, Mina…” Eren sighed in disappointment. “Are you okay?”

Mina nodded as she reached them, sitting down and panting heavily. y/n lay on her back, the relief of losing the extra weight washing over her. “When we graduate… I’m going to murder…that bald man…” She panted, referring to Shadis.

Reiner chuckled and handed her some water. “Here.”

“Thank you.” She sat up, taking it.

Reiner and Eren couldn’t help but stare as she brought the moleskin up to her perfectly shaped lips.

What I wouldn’t give to be that moleskin… Reiner thought. Marry me…

She handed it back to him before looking at Mina. “You’re doing so well. We’ll take the easier route. I’m proud of you.”

Mina nodded in appreciation. “Thank you, y/n. I couldn’t have gotten this far without your encouragement.”

y/n got to her feet and held out her hand for Mina to take. Pulling her up she grabbed the bags but Mina took hers back. “I got it now. Thank you, y/n.”

They began to run again, taking the path to the right. “See you at the finish line!” y/n glanced back at Eren and Reiner, smiling beautifully.

“She really is something…” Reiner smiled, shaking his head.

“Yeah.” Eren smiled at the ground. “She always has been.”

Shaking himself out of it, Reiner grabbed his bag. “Come on. We’d better get moving. I think I can hear Jean’s giant head wobbling around nearby.”

Letting out a loud laugh, Eren grabbed his own pack and they took the path to the left.

Shadis was waiting for them at the meeting point, having rode his horse there to overtake them easily. The cadets had been running for an hour when Mikasa and Annie arrived first.

“Hm. I thought just as much…” Shadis muttered, taking notes. “Well done you two. Go and rest over there while we wait for the others.”

Panting, they nodded and went to sit near the horses that were waiting to take them back down the trail.

“Who do you think will be last?” Annie asked Mikasa.

They’d both run in total silence, not speaking to one another once. The only reason Annie was making an effort now, was she had been thinking about what y/n had said to her the day before.

Mikasa took a drink of water as she pondered on that for a moment. “I have no idea.” She then replied, deflating Annie.

“Great input.” Annie muttered.

Mikasa ignored her.

“As long as it isn’t Eren, right?” Annie then added.

Shooting her a dark look, Mikasa turned away. “I’m not biting, Annie. If you want to take your misery out on someone, do it to someone who gives a damn.”

Annie blinked, surprised at Mikasa’s reply before smirking.

“Yeager and Braun. Well done.” Shadis nodded writing down their names and time.

Mikasa glanced up when she saw them staggering towards them.

“Eren. Are you alright?”

He nodded, panting before lying on the floor. “Why wouldn’t I be?”

“Come on, Mikasa.” Reiner let out a laugh. “He was with me. Of course, he’s alright.”

Mikasa smiled back at him.

“I’m surprised you made it, though.” Reiner smirked at Annie. “I didn’t think you’d be able to navigate a map.”

She scowled at him before turning away.

“I wonder who took the left path?” Eren thought out loud.

“I guess we’ll find out soon.” Reiner replied.

“Ymir and Kirstein.”

Looking up they saw the two of them hobbling over to rest.

“Damn that Shadis…” Ymir cursed once she reached them. “Making Christa run with another group.”

“Damn it Ymir, it’s all you’ve talked about.” Jean panted.

“Well you know Christa. I hate the thought of her going through that with someone she doesn’t really know.”

“We know everyone here. We’re all in the same class.”

“You know what I mean. Without her friends.”

“Springer and Braus. I’m impressed.” Shadis muttered as the two of them wheezed and puffed. “I thought you would have gotten lost.”

“So…Hungry.” Sasha moaned, collapsing onto the ground, not even removing her rucksack.

“So…tired.” Connie added, falling down next to her.

“You guys see anyone along the way?” Jean asked.

“We saw y/n and Mina right at the start. They overtook us, so I’m surprised they’re not here.” Sasha explained.

“We saw them too.” Eren added. “Mina was really struggling so they took the easier route.”

“That explains it then.” Sasha breathed heavily.

Reiner couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed at Mina holding y/n back. But logic kicked in and he quickly forgot about it.

“Bott and Wagner.”

Marco and Thomas, looking like they were about to pass out, stagger out from the treeline and towards the others within the clearing.

“About damn time.” Jean smirked at Marco.

“Don’t…start…” Marco huffed, his face red.

“We took…the quick route. Damn… It was hard.” Thomas wheezed.

“Have you seen y/n and Mina? Or Armin and Bertolt?” Mikasa asked them.

Marco shook his head. “No. They must have taken the longer way.”

“Hoover. Arlert.” Armin almost crawled over to the others, his eyes askew and his face looking pained.

“Damn.” Reiner smirked at Bertolt.

Bertolt wasn’t even out of breath due to having to stay along with Armin.

Connie glanced around. “So that just leaves y/n and Mina.”

“It’s not like y/n to come last.” Sasha frowned. “Do you think something happened?”

“They’re…not far behind us…” Armin explained. He then gave up, wanting to save his breath and looked to Bertolt to explain for him.

“y/n has Mina on her back.”

Their eyes flew open wide in surprise.

“What?” Jean laughed. “No way was it that bad.”

“Sorry if we’re not all athletes like you, Jean.” Connie narrowed his eyes at him.

“l/n. …Carolina.” Shadis blinked in surprise.

y/n had Mina on her back, who had both rucksacks on each arm. She was slumped over, struggling to breathe. y/n looked pained and slowly staggered over before her knees finally gave way and she collapsed.

“Woah.” Connie gasped as her friends rushed to her aid.

Jean and Mikasa picked up Mina and y/n rolled over, to their surprise she was laughing. “That was…something else…” She panted.

Connie frowned down at her. “…She’s delirious.”

Eren and Reiner both kneeled down beside her.

“You okay?” Eren frowned.

She nodded. “Totally…fine. Worry about Mina.”

Eren went over to help Mina hobble over to the horses.

“Can you move?” Reiner asked y/n softly with a smile.

“I don’t think I’ll be able to move for a while.” She let out a soft laugh that melted his insides into goo.

He let out a chuckle. “On your feet, Soldier.”

Grabbing her wrists, he picked her up and draped her arm across his broad shoulders, helping her walk back to the others. Something seemed different about Reiner to her. She didn’t know what it was but she liked it. There weren’t any crude jokes about her being on her back panting or anything.

“Pretty hardcore of you, carrying Mina and the bags like that.” He muttered as they walked.

“I pushed her…too hard. It’s…my…fault.” She huffed.

“She’s a big girl. She should have said something.” Reiner replied with a straight face.

“Communication between comrades is the most important thing of all, right?” She nodded in reply before they reached the horses.

“Alright, get into the carts and we’ll take you down to the Trost Barracks.” Shadis ordered everyone. “Today was supposed to be your day off, so go enjoy the rest of it."

Chapter III

A whole month had went by since that training session. Mina didn’t stop apologising to y/n for a week afterwards, regardless of how much she’d told her it was her own fault, and shouldn’t have pushed her so hard. Sasha, Connie, y/n and Annie had a huge feast once they’d reached Trost, and couldn’t move for about an hour afterwards.

But now, thirty days later, it was the dead of night and y/n was tossing and turning. She kept drifting in and out of restless sleep, her dreams wild and strange. She could feel the hot breath of Reiner against her neck, his rock-solid naked body pressed tightly against her own. His lips traced down to her collarbone so tenderly before returning to her lips. She felt things she’d never felt before, a hot and deep yearning from deep inside of her that felt so good.

“Reiner…” She whispered deeply into his ear as he ran his hand through her thick h/c hair.

He held her incredibly close, his forehead against hers as she gently ran her tongue along his bottom lip before biting on it. She felt a strange, deep and very strong power coming from within him, but she couldn’t put her finger on it. It seemed to resonate from inside him and it was getting bigger and bigger.

It got to the point where the power was so great, it began to scare her a little. She closed her eyes, hoping whatever it was would go away.

“Are you okay, baby?” He whispered.

She opened her eyes. She was no longer with Reiner. She was back in time, on the boats in Wall Maria. People were crying and screaming, climbing over one another to get onto the boats. She knew all too well from her memories what was coming next. Eren was sobbing next to her, but when she called out to him it was like he couldn’t hear her. Armin and Mikasa looked at the floor solemnly, also not aware of her presence. She flinched when the familiar deafening crash echoed out across to them as the horrifying armoured Titan smashed through the gate.

“y/n! I’m here!”

She bolted upright in her bed, cold sweat dripping down her body and panting heavily. As she slowly came to and remembered where she was, she noticed Mikasa hovering over her, her eyes filled with worry. Sasha, Christa and Mina were close by too, looking concerned. Ymir and Annie looked on from further away, frowning but still kind of wanting to know if she was okay.

“Are you alright?” Mikasa asked.

y/n put her hand on her head looking confused. “Sorry… did I wake you?”

“You were yelling for Mikasa, Eren and Armin in your sleep.” Mina whimpered, looking upset. “That must have been a pretty bad dream from the way you were screaming their names.”

Mortified, y/n covered her face. “Oh god. I’m sorry guys. I was back on the boats when…” She couldn’t finish her sentence.

Annie lowered her head slightly and turned away.

“Don’t be sorry.” Sasha said with a serious expression. “From what you went through, I’m surprised you don’t have dreams like that every night.”

Mikasa held her worried frown, rubbing y/n's arm in comfort.

Looking back up at everyone, y/n smiled. “I’m okay. Just a one-off.”

But she couldn’t shake the dream. More so, she was embarrassed that she had dreamt about Reiner.

Later that afternoon, the Cadets were being trained in hand-to-hand combat. As usual, people were yawning and half-assing it. Only a small handful of cadets took it seriously.

Sasha and Connie took it too seriously.

y/n glanced back and watched them as they got into kung-fu poses making loud noises, Connie having the wooden dagger in his mouth when Shadis appeared and smashed their heads together.

“Come on, get the dagger. Or you too chicken?” Eren teased her, grabbing her attention back.

She smirked at him and got into a fighting stance. “I’m going to make you eat those words, Jaeger.”

Eren grinned waiting for her. He knew she’d kick his ass. Mikasa had been training her since they were young and now she trained with both her and Annie, the two best fighters in the whole class. His face dropped when he saw her coming towards her.

“W-wait!”

Boom.

Just like that, he was on the floor and she held the dagger, laughing triumphantly.

His face melted into a smile as he got to his feet. “I really gotta catch up to you, huh?”

“Do you think you could?” She teased.

Letting out a small laugh he took the dagger back from her. “No. You’ve been training so hard since before Cadets.”

“Well, we knew what we wanted to be when we were pretty young.”

“Seriously though, I admire you for that.” He smiled. It wasn’t often Eren got all serious about things like that.

“Huh?”

“How hard you’ve always pushed yourself. I’ve seen you collapse from exhaustion more than once, yet you still push yourself even more. Where do you get the determination?”

She frowned, looking away. If only he knew…

“y/n?”

She looked back at him, fake smiling and he knew it. “Just forget about it, it’s why we’re here, right?”

“l/n! Jaeger!” Shadis yelled. “Cut the chit-chat!”

After a few rotations, y/n was paired with Reiner. She'd not long seen Annie beat him and Eren to the floor with ease.

“You okay?” y/n laughed beautifully, walking over to them. “I saw Annie kick your ass

Reiner flushed pink, but Eren was taking in what Annie had just said as y/n pulled him to his feet.

“Well you know…can’t really go all out on a girl.” Reiner blushed, scratching his head.

Remembering her dream, y/n couldn’t look Reiner in the eye without feeling a wave of embarrassment.

“Sure you can.” She challenged, trying her best to act normal. “Come get my dagger, I want you to go all out.”

Reiner flinched with a gulp. “I can’t…uh, well…”

“Go on, Reiner.” Eren encouraged. “y/n can take it, trust me.”

In Eren’s mind, if y/n can beat him, and he can't beat Reiner, there was no way he could hurt her.

“Imagine this was a real-life combat situation. I doubt you’d let yourself be killed because your enemy is a girl.” She continued, getting into a stance.

“Hm.” He smiled. “Alright. Prepare yourself.”

He ran towards her but she swerved out of the way with ease before tripping him up and using his own body weight to get him onto the floor. He landed with a thump on his ass, his legs splayed open upon the dirt. She then threw the dagger with force so it stuck into the ground, inches from his crotch. His head snapped up as he grimaced.

“Come on, Braun. I know you can do better.”

He smirked. What a woman. She drives me wild.

Getting to his feet, he pulled the mock blade from the dirt. Without warning he set off towards her, grabbing her arm and pining it behind her back, holding the blade to her throat.

“You were saying…?” He chuckled.

y/n jabbed him with her elbow into his ribs, making him release his grip on her.

Eren let out a laugh. “See? Told you.”

Reiner looked up and smiled slyly at her, preventing himself from flirting, taking Ymir's advice. But at this point, especially after that dream, she half wanted him to.

She was surprised he’d seemed to stop those jokes around her and it made her think he must not find her attractive. Oh how wrong she was.

Chapter IV

The sun was beating down onto the training grounds one afternoon when Sasha, Connie, Marco, Jean and Bertolt were sitting in a group relaxing in the warmth. It was a pleasant day where it wasn’t too hot; nice breeze strolled in every now and again to cool off the Cadets.

Armin, Mikasa and Eren were sitting nearby too, in their own separate group, Ymir and Christa were not too far away.

Glancing around, Connie looked at Bertolt and realised it seemed he looked different like he was missing something almost. His eyes then drifted over to Eren and the others, realising y/n wasn’t there with them. Turning his head he then looked over yonder where y/n and Reiner sat alone under a tree, talking.

“Hm.” He noted.

“y/n and Reiner seem to be spending a lot of time together these days.”

“Yeah.” Sasha nodded. “I noticed that too.”

“So what?” Jean frowned, getting defensive for his friend.

“It’s just weird seeing Bertolt without Reiner.” Connie then shrugged with a laugh. He kept his eyes on the pair, his brain ticking. “I wonder what they’re talking about. Whatever it is, it must be funny.”

“They just seem to drift together like magnets.” Marco noted. “I’m glad they get on so well.”

“I’ve noticed you like this sort of thing.” Reiner noted to y/n after their laughing fit.

“Hm?” She hummed while taking a drink of water. “What sort of thing?”

He pointed up above them to the tree they were under. “Nature. Animals, trees. That sort of thing.”

“Oh. Yeah.” She smiled gorgeously, making his chest melt like butter.

“Is it obvious?”

“No, not really. Only to a trained eye like mine.” He smirked.

She smiled mischievously. She always felt at ease and playful around Reiner. And just like Marco had said, these days they just seemed to naturally drift towards each other.

“Right. You’re trained eye.” She smirked. “What else has that skill picked up on?”

“That you don’t really like eating meat.”

Her demeanour changed instantly, shocked that he’d picked up on that. Only her three best friends knew that. “How did you –”

“And that you actually enjoy it when you’re caught in the rain.”

“Reiner…” Her lips part.

“I told you…” He smiled coyly, tapping his temple. “Trained eye.”

“Seriously, how do you know these things? Have you been talking to Eren?” She pouted, which he found adorable.

Laughing, he shook his head. “No.”

“Then tell me how.”

He then tapped his nose.

Rolling her eyes and sighing she gave in. “Alright Mr Amazing. Won’t you, oh so please tell me how your greatness knew these things?”

Laughing out loud he draped his arm over his knee. “Your eyes light up whenever we’re in the forest. They also seem to linger at the tops of trees and flowers. You smile slightly when you see something in particular you enjoy, let’s say for example a small hidden waterfall.”

She just looked at him in awe.

“The meat thing is easy. You look away quickly when the suppliers come in. You feel bad for the animals is my guess but hey…I’m an eagle eye not a mind reader.”

y/n let out a chuckle.

“And the rain thing, well you get that same look in your eye as when we’re in the forest.”

There was a short pause as she took that all in. “Well aren’t you observant?” She then smiled.

“A good Soldier always is.” He beamed.

“A good Soldier…or maybe you’ve been staring at me, Reiner Braun.” She arched an eyebrow at him as he felt a little nervous at that statement. She then held her nose up pretending to act snobby. “A little creepy if you ask me.”

Given that they were pretty close now he knew she was joking so he let out a laugh.

“Just leave it to me.” He grinned. “I’ll take you to every single forest in these god damn walls.”

She laughed again. “Why?”

“To see you smile.” He replied simply.

She felt extremely touched to hear that. “You can see me smile any time. We see each other every day.” She joked.

“But I wanna be the one to make you smile.” He replied, heavy-lidded as he put his face a little closer to hers. “And to give you that sparkle in your eyes.”

y/n glanced away shyly, the weird feeling she had around Reiner getting more intense.

“Look at those two.” Eren steamed from afar. “They’re so close they’re practically kissing.”

Armin, who had already figured out Eren’s feelings for y/n, didn’t really know what to say. His mind ticked over but before he could think of anything, Eren continued. “It’s not like they’re in earshot of anyone so there’s no need to be talking so quietly either.”

“Just leave it Eren.” Mikasa said in her usual monotone voice. “Haven’t you noticed how happy she’s been recently?”

Eren looked like he’d just been stabbed in the gut. “What are you saying?”

Mikasa glared at him. “I’m saying, if you try anything to ruin it, I will make sure you’re discharged from Cadets due to injury. Don’t you think she deserves to be happy?”

Frowning, Eren looked back over as the pair of them let out another belly laugh. “Of course she does…” He sighed. I just want it to be with me…

A month went by and nothing seemed to change. Y/n and Reiner were still gravitating towards each other, and although nothing had happened between them, most of the others just assumed they had a thing now.

One day they were walking back to their barracks after a rigorous training exercise when Reiner came up behind her and scooped her up so she was sitting on his broad shoulders.

“What the --?” She gasped in surprise.

“Queens shouldn’t have to walk.” He laughed, carrying her all the way back to their barracks.

Once they arrived back, he gently lowered her onto the floor. “Good work today, l/n.” He smiled. “I noticed you made top marks again.”

“You notice a lot of things.” She laughed.

“I noticed that we have a day off tomorrow. You wanna hang out together?”

“Sure.” She nodded. “Sounds like fun.” He felt the need to reiterate.

“I mean, you know... just the two of us?"

A sly smile pulled the corner of her mouth. “Are you asking me on a date Reiner Braun?”

He scratched the back of his head for a moment but his face went serious. “Yeah. As a matter of fact, I am.”

She thought for a moment. “Sure. Why not?”

Chapter V

The view that was before y/n took her absolute breath away; Knowing the things she adores, Reiner had taken her deep within the woods, leading the way with an old iron lantern.

"This is where we brought Eren to help with his balancing technique. Remember? When his gear was busted?"

The lake below shimmered gorgeously in the silver glow of the moonlight, reflecting all of her power around the forest. Thick groups of tree's spotted the view below the cliffside, the mountains in the distance framing this picturesque scenery so perfectly, its what y/n would imagine the gateway to heaven would be like.

Gosh, it's been almost three years since then... She muses to herself as Reiner's eyes sparkle over the view, still holding up the flickering light.

"Reiner, it's perfect..." She breathes, almost not able to believe her own eyes.

"Knew you'd like it." He smiled, gingerly placing the lantern on the rock. "Are you warm enough?"

Her face burns a little. "Yes, thank you."

Reiner's cheeks begin to turn pink now too, realising he now has the love of his life here. Alone. With this gorgeous scenery.

Oh hell, what do I have to loose?

Without a word he steps towards her, gazing down into her eyes. His lips part and lids become heavy as he lets the moment sink in.

"I'm crazy about you."

Her eyes enlarge. Not only is she thrilled to hear this, but his clumsy timing was a little off, but she figured he was trying his best.

"Oh?" She feigns ignorance, seeing what his next move would be.

And it took her by surprise.

Reiner's cheeks were now burning, his eyes glancing away for a second as he mustered up the courage. His throat went dry and his hands were getting clammy.

"Y/n, may I... kiss you?"

There's that gentleman she'd been dying to see. The one she knew lay beneath all the macho imagery, crude jokes and flirtatious jabs.

Her heart begins to bray faster, and flutters in her stomach got more intense as they spiralled out of control, circling the drain from her chest and down into between her legs.

She replies by sliding her hands up his large chest and draping them over his shoulders, placing her face close to his. He catches her gaze, head bowed down to try to reach her smaller level as she comfortably hangs from his neck. The almost mystical glow of the liquid moonlight encases the two, almost as if the trees, the lake and all things from mother earth were whispering; love is the answer.

They keep their heads connected for a while, treasuring the moment - Reiner's large hand encasing her cheek, the other down on her waist. His girthed thumb tenderly swipes her face back and forth, the only thing he can hear is the way his conciousness was trying to keep his excited breathing calm and collected.

"Only if you intend to keep me." Her tone soft, quiet and almost as light as the small breeze that dances carefree around them.

His lips part, heart going to impossible new lengths to keep everything working as his mind begins to short circut.

His bowed head turns slightly and catches her mouth into a tender press, his slightly broken but beautiful nose sketching colours reminiscent of ruby as he ignores the "oh my god, oh my god" monologue that was going on somewhere in his mind.

Having waited for this moment for a long time, the fuse had corroded into a pretty short line, the yearning unbearably strong and the reigns of control quickly thrashed from their hands.

Their skin finally connecting like this proved to be too much as they crumble simultaneously. Once that soft press took place, all hope of a dignified grace was snatched away; her leg lifting up to his waist, adding to the snowballing loss of control, he grunts into her mouth as his tongue slithers by her lips, tasting her deeply.

His large palm grabs her other thigh, picking her up as she wraps around his waist like a snake, their mouths still connected - her body basically weightless to the large and powerful Reiner Braun. The power that will certainly bring them both to their knees.

Their movements become more frantic, Reiner's brows sewn into a pleading expression. Pleading for her to keep going. Pleading to not stop. Pleading to love him as he did her.

For y/n it was all too much; the physical stimulation cocktailed with the emotional was becoming unstable, her hips beginning to grind upon his stomach as she breathes deeply into his mouth, the sigh a sure sign she had no intention of stopping.

A high-pitched, wavered moan unintentionally escapes the large blonde as she grinds her hips desperately upon him.

"You want my to make you feel good?" He breathes, trembling.

She nods, still not opening her eyes.

"Oh, I'll make you feel good, baby."

With ease, he crouches still not removing his mouth from hers as he whips off her cloak with one hand, placing it on the ground before gently lowering her upon it. He hunches over her, his woman - his pride and joy that he must now protect at all cost.

Moving his mouth down to her neck, his once reserved hands now greedy with lust pull at her shirt, tearing it open.

Forgive me... He thinks as he nips her neck with his teeth, his hand invading her bra, roughly tugging it down so he can get a good look at the breasts he'd been fantasising over for the past two and a half years. Don't blame me for how we're built. I've lost control...

"Shit~" He whimpers when he sees them bounce free, looking better than he'd ever imagined.

Without a pause for breath, his head is at them one in his mouth and the other being squeezed, pulled and nipped with his eager fingers.

Being ravished by Reiner Braun was indescribable, his evident starvation for her delightful, she was more than happy to put herself up onto a plate for this perfect man.

His cock begins to ache, having been pumped with too much blood, too much testosterone and far too much lust.

"Ah ~!" She gasps when she finally noticed...

Reiner's head raises from her body for a moment, his face flushed and his hair sticking up in random places, his chest heaving.

He'd ripped her shirt clean open in his quest for flesh.

"I'll buy you another." He pants, sounding like he just ran a marathon.

She nods, eager for him to return his invading assault on her body, his mouth now returning to what it was doing.

If someone were to stumble across them right now it would look awfully weird; her splayed upon the ground, her clothing ripped, yet the beast who was still in his cloak, caped over her like this, looked like something from a horror movie; the monster who got his hands on the damsel and was now devouring her with such hunger it was almost feral.

"I need you, Reiner." She sings as he groans now into her lower stomach.

He unclicks the fastening of his cloak, allowing himself more freedom of movement, the same hand now lowering to his trousers with haste, desperate to free himself and bury within her.

The sight of his large, slightly curved cock was almost frightening; it looked angry, the crimson flush it was pulsating with heat, the weeping head crying to be within her.

But as aggressive as it looked, its handler was the opposite, his hands now slowly pulling down her trousers and underwear, his tone switching to soft and tender once more.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" He gruffs, eyes hazed as he brings himself back up to her head. "I don't want you to feel like you have to do anything you don't want."

"I want you." She almost sobs, her entire body ignited with the kerosene of lust, Reiner's touch the ignition.

More than pleased to hear those words, he lines himself up to her.

"I don't want to hurt you, so just tell me and I'll stop." He whispers.

As hard as it would be to tear himself away from her body at this point, it was something he would gladly do if it was causing any sort of discomfort.

She nods.

"I love you, y/n." He whimpers before slowly pushing his swollen head into her.

This sweet sensation of his full feeling, along with his confession could have easily pushed you into an instant orgasm, had you been less worried about his size.

Reiner takes his time, holding back his primal urges of just pounding you then and there into the dirt, pumping you with his seed. Instead, he goes painfully slow, the effort of holding himself back taking its toll on his body, sweat beading at his head and his entirety shaking like some vulnerable baby kitten.

Eventually, with one final push, he was fully sheathed, his jaw clenching with the effort of holding back her insides squeezing and flexing around him, the ridges beautifully textured like they were made for his dick.

Your eyes water with how full you felt, his staggered breathing in your ear like a gorgeous symphony as he groans. "You okay?" He pants.

She nods.

His hips begin to move, each drag emitting an uncontrolled moan of awe and pleasure from him, his hands grabbing desperately at her hips and thighs. "You're so perfect. N'nurgh, god I won't last long, beautiful."

You didn't care.

He sits back, gawping at the sight of him splitting her in half, his thumb now starting to circle her bundle of nerves as he slowly pushes himself in and out of her, wanting you to cum before he implodes.

With his lips parted, he clasps his eyes shut, the mere sight of him inside of her like this pushing him dangerously close to his unwanted end.

His shirt was somehow unbuttoned, she'd figured she must have done it at some point but the thick hazed fog of lust made it difficult to recall. The sight of his abs rolling with his movements helped push her quicker into the comfort needed before an orgasm, her spasming insides beginning to change their pattern of movement. The relentless pleasure of Reiner not only pushing his fullness inside of her but his continuous circling of her clit was too much to handle.

"R-Reiner ~ I think... I'm going to..." She stammers not feeling anything like it before.

"Ha~ fu- I can't hold it..." He hisses, the fact he was making her cum proving to be too much.

He slithers a strong arm under her hips, grinding as he thrusts so her bundle of nerves had friction against his short pubic hair.

They both cry out loudly as they implode within the other, Reiner's pathetic whimpers above her desperate sighs as they take each other to levels of pleasure they didn't think were possible.

Dawn was breaking over the training grounds, Connie and Sasha were the first ones up and dressed, more than ready for their breakfast before their day of training.

"I'm telling you it's Rosemary." Sasha spat as she lazily stretched her arms above her head.

"And I'm telling you it's Thyme!" Connie pouts, shooting her a sly glance. "My mom grows it!"

"I'm the one who is obsessed with food! The stuff they put on the chicken is Rosemary!"

Connie stares ahead, mouth gawping open like the idiot he sometimes was, his arm reaching back to pat Sasha, getting her attention.

Her eyes open and her jaw drops too, seeing a shirtless Reiner break from the treeline, holding hands with y/n who had the large man's shirt draped around her. They watched in horror as the two exchanged a quick kiss before both breaking off and sneaking back into their respective barracks.

"...I've suddenly lost my appetite." Connie mutters, his eyes still wide.

"Oh, then more for me." Sasha chirps.

I am not a fortune teller to predict that he was prepared to die. You never know what people are willing to do in desperate situations.

Chips of wood fuse with shavings of my own skin, but it’s too hot I no longer feel pain. Or maybe it’s the little pains, one adding after the other, the broken bones, twisted joints, burns and cuts, that at some point, they all cancel each other. A way to protect us from infinite despair. All I can do now that I lost the connection from my brain to my limbs is think of you. Where are you now? Are you waiting for me? Where?

I see you picking flowers to festoon our home.

Our home.

Are you butchering a song or are you dancing to a march?

I always thought you couldn’t dance to a march, but you taught me how. You can dance to the chirps of birds too.

I remember the last words you uttered before I left home; I’ve been replaying that kiss in my head over and over again, slow, and warped memory that painfully ebbs as I try to carve the gentleness of your lips molding to mine. The sweetness of honeyed tea lingering in your mouth; your soft hands warming my flustered cheeks.  

And then, the distress in your voice when you muttered: I’ll be waiting for you. Unlike me, you can glimpse the future.

I once read in one of Hange’s books that humans are a cluster of simple atoms and molecules of water, carbon, calcium, iron. Isn’t that depressing? Water, you can take it from any river; carbon in the form of coal; calcium from the scrapes of chalk; iron from the rasp of a rusty nail. But I refuse to think that the essence of life is belittled to the composition of cheap chemicals. You can’t be just that. whatever your soul is made of must be something special, inimitable, nothing that can be found on Earth.

I didn’t want to admit it, but I’m dying. I’ve endured so much I don’t know how much more I can take. Humanity’s strongest soldier is not made of stone. But I think of you, I think of the promise I made. It’s so easy to give up, but I can’t. For you I can’t.

I will not let Saturn devour our children.

I’m not ready to give you up. The remembrances are not enough. I can’t give up your smile, the spark in your eyes, the way you soothe the lines between my eyebrows. The way you mellow my mood. I can’t give up your hugs, your kisses, the tenderness of your skin brushing against mine. And the cute love sounds you drop in my ear when we pressed together with so much urgency as if we could exchange atoms. If there is a God, and if he had a voice, it is yours.

He brought me to you, to fill my life with your grace.

And that’s all I needed.

Your laugh is dwindling but I’m not ready to let go.

I press rewind.

One more time.

From the beginning.

Until I wake up.

Please.

Statistics Professor Ackerman

Characters: Statistics Professor!Levi

Genre: Modern!au

Warnings: SFW with suggestive content in the last paragraph (marked with a [*] so you can actually skip it). Some spoilers for my future Statistics Professor Ackerman writing. Brief mentions of fem!reader insert (but no y/n being used).

A/N: Good day everyone!!! It's D-23 to Levi's birthday!!!! Today I have something a little different, which is a moodboard based on my Statistics Professor Ackerman au along with some little facts about Stats Prof Levi hehe.

I will be making a more detailed post about Stats Prof Levi in the future, so this post shall serve as an appetiser for the main course!!

Event master list | Event taglist | Rei’s taglist

Statistics Professor Ackerman is in his early forties and he lives alone in an apartment. His home is very minimalistic, free from clutter and has a hint of tea and eucalyptus lingering in the air. He also does not have many decorations and furniture at home, and only has what's necessary.

Statistics Professor Ackerman's home interior has a lot of white and wood, with some house plants and hanging succulents around the house. He likes things minimal, but doesn't mind the splash of colour. His home is airy and spacious, and looks very modern as well. Statistics Professor Ackerman also has a dehumidifier at home.

Statistics Professor Ackerman's favourite time of the day is the morning, and he always makes sure he eats breakfast before starting the day. He's okay with the lack of sleep, but he gets extremely cranky without breakfast. He also likes to take his breakfast with a cup of tea.

Statistics Professor Ackerman's cupboard is full of button shirts even though they're mostly plain black, white, navy, or grey. His ties and vests though, do have a splash of colour, or have certain patterns and designs. He arranges and sorts his clothes by colour and design.

Statistics Professor Ackerman has a soft spot for roses because they were his mother's favourite. He doesn't remember her much, but the scent of roses comforts him even until today. On his mother's birthday and death anniversary, he buys himself a small bouquet of roses and places them in a vase on his desk. It was his way of remembering her, and he does it every year without fail.

Statistics Professor Ackerman has had a few relationships in the past, but he could never commit to settling down with someone. He cannot see himself in a long-term committed relationship, but everything changed after he met you. Even though he was way older than you, he couldn't help but develop feelings for you, and he even had thoughts of building a future with you, even though it seemed impossible.

[*] Statistics Professor Ackerman has had a few sexual encounters and experiences with his past relationship partners, but he's never had intercourse before. Sure, he's gone down on his partners and used his hands on them as well, but he's never done anything more. Yet, ever since he started having feelings for you, dirty thoughts of claiming you for himself plagued his mind. He felt guilty for lusting over his younger student, but he just couldn't help himself.

I can imagine timeskip! Quil would probably not budge an inch when it comes to wanting to help Shawn with his idea I just realized, especially after being told LilShade practically foresaw this aaaaAA-

Haha, oh exactly-

Absolutely zero hesitation, this dude ain’t gonna let him go on this expedition alone.

“Yeah, pal. I, the mountaineering expert, am definitely letting you go headfirst alone into a place called ‘toughest mountain’. Sure.”

“C’mon, man-“

“I’m going.”

I WANNA BE YOUR ENDGAME – Chapter 05

🏒❤️ A Hockey Romance feat. modern!Sukuna

Pairing: HockeyPlayer!Sukuna x Reader (female) Genre: College AU, Hockey AU, fluff + smut Playlist: I wanna be your Endgame Word Count: 5k Warnings: 18+, smut, cigarettes. Fuckbuddies to lovers. Reader is a creative writing student. Sukuna is an ice hockey player + history student. This story will have approximately 10 chapters. Minors don't interact. Header by me. Divider @/benkeibear

MASTERLIST

You spend the Sunday in bed, trying to watch a TV show to shut up your mind, which keeps coming up with all too vivid images of what Sukuna and you did in the locker room. But you can't focus on the show. Instead, your gaze wanders distractedly through your room and brushes over the white, too-large hoodie that is draped over the backrest of your chair. Sukuna's hoodie. And you are mentally back where you started: In the locker room on Sukuna's lap.

You groan and bury your face in your hands. You will have to go to your classes again tomorrow, which means there is a high chance you will bump into a certain pink-haired, tattooed hockey player. But you have no idea how to act around Sukuna after this! Hopefully, you won't run into him, at least for a few days!

But of course, it doesn't work like that. You haven't even started your first class of the week before you see Sukuna again. He is leaning against one of the vending machines in the hallway that leads to your creative writing class, talking to one of his teammates while looking gorgeous as always, with his pink hair slicked back, tight black jeans that accentuate his muscular thighs, and a white team hoodie, just like the one that is waiting for you in your room.

You duck behind a large plant, groaning inwardly at how insane you must look to everyone around you. But you simply cannot face Sukuna right now! Just one look at him brings back the memories of those firm muscles under your fingers and how those large, calloused hands trailed all over your skin, and how good that thick cock felt inside you.

You make a strangled noise as you try to determine whether Sukuna already saw you or whether you can still turn around and run the other way. You are about to give in to the second option. But it's already too late.

"Hey, princess!"

You draw in a sharp breath as you clutch your books to your chest and slowly turn around again. Sukuna is casually strolling over to you, his hands shoved into the pockets of his black jeans, his typical arrogant smirk on his handsome, tattooed face.

You exhale slowly, lifting your head and straightening your shoulders, trying to will your embarrassment away as Sukuna stops in front of you.

Act cool, act cool, act cool!

"Hey, Ice Prince."

Sukuna's eyes sparkle in amusement, and he laughs that sexy low laugh and runs a tattooed hand through his pink hair as he cocks his head,

"Prince? I'd rather think I am the Ice King. But of course, I can be anything you want, princess."

Suddenly, he is so close to you again, towering over you, tall and big, and your back bumps against the wall behind you. Your heart is racing wildly as you look at Sukuna. At his lips precisely. Lips that lift in that sexy, rude smirk. Lips that you know feel so hot and soft against yours when they kiss you. Your breath hitches. And Sukuna laughs softly.

He leans down, his sexy cologne filling your nose, and his warm breath is on your neck when he whispers in your ear,

"Do I make you nervous?"

You grit your teeth and bring a hand up to push weakly against his broad chest, not really trying to push him away (not that you could move him an inch anyway), but in a helpless attempt to cover up your embarrassment. Why does he have to be like this? Why isn't he nervous, too? You shake your head, eyes burning into Sukuna's,

"No, of course not!"

But Sukuna huffs, leaning even closer, his voice full of smug amusement,

"Liar."

He smirks at you, his maroon eyes filled with a far too knowing look, when he adds in a teasing voice,

"Why do you act so flustered then? Like a scared little bunny. Is it maybe because you can't stop thinking about what we did in the locker room? How you bounced on my cock and how my cum was dripping down your hand and..."

You make a squeaking sound and reach up to press your hand over Sukuna's mouth to shut him up. And he laughs. You feel his lips move against your palm, feel his smirk, and then something warm and wet.

You jump, and your gaze snaps to Sukuna's eyes. He is staring right at you, a teasing, amused spark in his eyes while he is licking your palm.

There's another slow, teasing flick of his tongue, and much to your horror, it sends bolts of electricity and desire through you, making you press your thighs together involuntarily. But at least you finally come to your senses and quickly pull your hand away, wiping it on your jeans while you roll your eyes at Sukuna.

"Stop it!"

Sukuna grins broadly at you, his tattooed face still full of mischief, but at least he lowers his voice when he says,

"It's fine, princess. I enjoyed our little locker room fuck, too."

You restrain yourself from pressing your hand on his mouth again, and Sukuna adds smoothly,

"How about we make this a regular thing? It doesn't have to be exclusive to the locker room. We could also use a bed next time, or a shower, or anywhere else you like. You and I get along, and the sex is good, so why not have some fun together? It doesn't have to be a big deal. What do you say?"

You stare at him, your pulse racing and your head spinning at his offer, unable to form a response.

Sukuna smirks and touches your shoulder, letting his large hand trail down your arm until he reaches the pocket of your cardigan, where your phone is sitting. Sukuna pulls it out and holds it out to you,

"Unlock it."

You do as he says as if on autopilot and watch as Sukuna types in his number before handing the phone back to you. He takes a step away from you, slinging his backpack casually over one broad shoulder, and jerks his chin at you,

"Think about my offer, princess, and hit me up if you crave a little fun in your life."

He winks at you before he turns around and strolls away, leaving you standing there leaning bonelessly against the wall with your heart beating up to your throat and your mind whirling.

Did Sukuna just offer me a fuck-buddies arrangement?

This new development turns you into a distracted mess for the rest of the day. You get into trouble with your grumpy professor once again when you fail to reply to her question because your mind is too occupied thinking about Sukuna and what to do about this whole arrangement he is offering you.

You drop your books and forget your jacket and curse yourself for being such a flustered idiot just because some hot hockey boy blessed you with the best dick of your life and is asking for a repeat!

Get a grip!

But even when you are back in your dorm, you can't stop obsessing over this whole situation with Sukuna. You keep playing with your phone, unlocking it to stare at the new contact.

Sukuna 🏒👑

Your lips twitch when you see the hockey stick and crown emoji next to his name.

Your fingers hover over the message icon several times, but you always lock your screen again before you can write anything.

You throw your phone onto your bed with a heavy sigh. You are too flustered and too shy to text Sukuna and agree to whatever it is he is offering. But at the same time, there's this excited tingle in your veins that screams at you to text him and just enjoy that star player dick.

Isn't this the kind of exciting thing you dreamed about happening to you when coming to this college? And now you get it presented to you on a silver platter, but you are too chicken to take it?

You groan and bury your burning face in your hands. Maybe you can make a decision tomorrow. You need some time to think, or rather overthink.

You manage to avoid Sukuna the whole next day during classes, feeling like a complete fool with the way you sneak through the hallways, always checking if you see his pink hair somewhere. Your lunchtime is spent in your classic literature classroom, munching on some sandwich you hastily prepared this morning. Hiding away like a coward.

You feel relieved when your last class of the day is over. Now you just have to head to the library to get some research material for a new assignment, and then you can go back to the safety of your dorm, where you can lock yourself in your room and obsess in peace over a phone contact with a hockey stick and a crown.

You roll your eyes at yourself, and the librarian tells you to stop giving her such mean looks. Your eyes widen, and you hastily apologize, fleeing towards the section she told you the book you are looking for is.

The old floorboards creak beneath your feet, the smell of old books fills your nostrils, and you feel at least part of the familiar comfort the library always offers you. You scan the bookshelves, looking for the number the librarian gave you. And sigh in annoyance when you finally spot the title you were looking for.

Of course, it has to be on one of the higher shelves, and you can't see a ladder anywhere! You get on your tiptoes, bracing yourself on the shelf with one hand while you try to reach the book you want. You curse softly when your fingertips barely manage to graze the wooden shelf on which the book is standing.

And suddenly a familiar smug, low voice speaks up behind you,

"Need help, princess?"

You whip your head around, looking over your shoulder at the very person you have been avoiding all day. He has that typical, lazy smirk on his tattooed face, and there's an amused glint in his maroon eyes.

"Sukuna?"

You blink at him in surprise, and Sukuna's grin grows broader.

He steps closer, closing the distance between you so his body presses lightly against your back, making your heart race like crazy. Even if you wanted to, you wouldn't be able to run from him anymore with the way you are trapped between the bookshelf and Sukuna's tall, muscular body. You gulp hard, pulse fluttering at the feeling of Sukuna pressed against you and the enticing smell of his cologne and the cigarette smoke on his clothes filling your nose.

Sukuna reaches above your head, effortlessly plucking the book from the shelf.

He doesn't pull away immediately but stays right there, pressed lightly against you, his buff body caging you in while his warm breath brushes over your earlobe. His velvety voice has dropped to a low, seductive murmur that makes goosebumps appear on your arms,

"I haven't seen you all day. Where were you hiding, princess?"

You huff, trying to sound casual, but you cringe inwardly when you hear how breathy your voice comes out,

"What do you mean? I wasn't hiding."

Sukuna finally steps away, and you let out a breath and turn around to look at him. He is holding the book you need in his large hand, and you reach for it, but you see a shit-eating grin spread over Sukuna's face, and even as you reach out, you know it means trouble.

And, of course, right before you can grab the book, Sukuna lifts his arm above his head, letting your book dangle from his long tattooed fingers out of reach for you.

"Uh uh, not so fast."

You roll your eyes, crossing your arms in front of your chest,

"What are you doing? Give me the book!"

Sukuna laughs softly, smirking at you in that rude and sexy way that infuriates you and turns you on at the same time. He shakes his head and drawls in a low, amused voice,

"I'll give you your book if you promise to see me tonight. My dorm, 8 p.m. We can just talk if you want. Or we can do more than that. It's your choice, princess."

Heat throbs between your thighs as your mind provides you with an image of the two of you on Sukuna's bed, naked bodies moving rhythmically against each other. Your hands trailing over Sukuna's smooth tattooed skin, your fingers feeling up his buff muscles... You draw in a sharp breath and look up at him with big eyes and a face that feels way too hot.

"I..."

Sukuna laughs softly, his cat-like eyes gazing deeply into yours, completely shameless, far too arrogant, but damn, it drives you crazy in a very good way. One corner of his lips lifts in that sexy smirk, and he cocks his head,

"Is that a yes?"

It's not fair how charming and sexy he looks and how he is tempting you with a good time. The kind of good time you really want. The thought of meeting him again, knowing what it will lead to, still makes you flustered and feel like some shy little virgin, but you really like what he is offering you. And so you nod and mutter a soft,

"Y.. yes."

And Sukuna looks so pleased.

"Hmm, smart girl."

He leans down, his grin downright devilish now, and his breath brushes over your neck, making your skin tingle everywhere. And it gets even worse when Sukuna's tongue darts out and licks a slow, wet trail up your neck while you feel his rude smirk against your skin.

You screech and push at his broad chest,

"Hey! Don't drool on me!"

But you can't hide how playful and amused your voice sounds. You shake your head and laugh breathlessly as you look up at Sukuna's grinning face and he laughs and pulls away. He lowers his hand, holding the book out for you to take.

You quickly snatch it from his tattooed fingers. But Sukuna is fast. It must be his hockey-player-reflexes. He manages to grab your hand before you can pull away, holding onto it while his maroon eyes gaze deeply into yours.

"8 p.m. at my dorm. Don't keep me waiting, princess."

He doesn't wait for an answer but lets go of you, leaving you standing in the middle of the library with wobbly knees and wide eyes.

You are a nervous, excited, giggly mess when you make your way over campus and to Sukuna's dorm.

You feel embarrassed and exposed when you slip through the front door of the large dorm building, thinking that everyone who sees you must know exactly what you are up to. As if you are holding a blinking red sign that reads, "I am going to have sex with your star player."

But at the same time, your veins are singing with excitement. You feel almost high. You are meeting a super hot hockey player/the resident bad boy to get into a fuckbuddy arrangement with him or something like that! It's the kind of crazy thing you would have never thought you would ever get to experience.

You, who were always too scared, too anxious, too careful to experience anything exciting. But somehow, Sukuna made that whole cardhouse tumble down so easily, and suddenly, you feel so light, with your pulse racing and your whole body buzzing.

Your heart is pounding wildly in your chest when you reach the Itadori twins' apartment. You need a moment before you finally make up the courage to lift your hand and knock on the door. The seconds tick away, and your breath comes out in nervous, quick huffs as you wait for Sukuna to let you in.

Finally, the door swings open, and Sukuna stands in the doorway in low-hanging grey sweatpants, a black t-shirt, and that damn boyish smirk on his handsome face.

"Hey, my lucky charm."

He waves you inside, and you slip off your shoes and follow Sukuna into the apartment. It's bigger than the one you and Nobara share, which is probably a bonus the beloved hockey players get. The living area and open kitchen look clean but a bit chaotic, with hockey equipment, weights, and other gym stuff strewn everywhere. A red hoodie is hanging over the backrest of the couch, and various video games and manga are scattered all over the couch table next to several empty protein shake containers.

"Ignore the mess. I just came back from practice and didn't have time to clean. It's not my mess, by the way. My brother can't keep a clean room."

You smile to yourself, thinking that it's kind of cute that big bad hockey star Sukuna apologizes for how his living room looks. But before you can tease him about it, Sukuna already pushes open the door to his bedroom and ushers you inside.

It's surprisingly neat compared to the mess in the shared living area. The first thing you see is Sukuna's bed, which is actually made and suits him really well with the all-black bedding. On the left side of the room is a window and a desk with neatly stacked books. Above it is a shelf with trophies and next to that, a big pinboard with some hockey tactics written in Sukuna's elegant handwriting and a few pictures of Yuuji and Sukuna and an old man with a face shape that looks very similar to Sukuna's and Yuuji's, so you assume it must be their grandpa.

You look curiously around the rest of the room. A flag with the team crest is hanging on the wall behind the bed, and on the right side of the room, you can see a half-opened closet. The clothes you can spot in it are all black, with the exception of some white and red, which you assume must be Tigers merch.

A stack of cigarette packages and some energy drinks sit on a shelf next to a whole array of hair products (cherry flavored, like you already assumed), as well as several big bottles of cologne and a smaller bottle of black nail polish. You smile to yourself.

Vain idiot.

"So, did you think about my offer? About our little arrangement? You okay with it, princess?"

Sukuna's low voice interrupts your nosiness, and you whip around to look at him, feeling flustered again. You shrug and tug nervously on your fingers,

"What does it include exactly?"

Sukuna laughs and shrugs,

"Anything you want. We just have fun."

He has taken a step closer to you, and his low voice is smooth and velvety like a caress. You feel nervous, intimidated, and overwhelmed by the way your mind screams at you: You had sex with him! He was inside you. And you know you want it again. You are in his room. You just have to reach out and touch him!

A shaky laugh comes out of your mouth, but you nod and smile nervously at Sukuna,

"Okay, sounds good."

You gulp hard and lick your lips. They feel too dry suddenly as you look up at Sukuna's tattooed face, too aware of how small the room seems all of a sudden, and how good he smells, and how tall and strong he is. You add shyly,

"So... um, how do we go about this?"

You gesture helplessly at the bed and at Sukuna, suddenly ready to just run from his room and hide away forever. But Sukuna laughs softly and cocks his head, his face softer than usual, as if he feels bad for you.

He puts a hand on your waist.

"No need to be so nervous, princess. It's easy. Just come here, and I assure you, you will know what to do. It worked really fine the last time, don't you agree? Our chemistry is good."

He is right.

The moment Sukuna wraps an arm around you and pulls you against him, it's really easy.

Your hands automatically wrap around his neck, and you get on your tiptoes, pressing your body against Sukuna's, sighing when you feel his warm, firm body against yours. Your lips crash into his, kissing him hard as if to make up for your shyness a moment ago. And Sukuna kisses you back, his tongue licking hungrily into your mouth, both of you instantly overcome with the same craving you felt in the locker room.

Sukuna's large, warm hands are on your hips, steering you to his bed, while your lips trail from his mouth down his jaw, kissing his sexy tattoos before they close around his Adam's apple and suck on it, smiling when you hear the soft growl coming from Sukuna.

You tumble onto Sukuna's bed, and everything feels completely natural. As if you have never done anything other than make out with Sukuna. It's as easy as breathing.

Your hands slip so naturally under Sukuna's t-shirt and explore his abs and pecs before you tug on the soft cotton shirt, and Sukuna helps you pull it off.

It's the most natural thing ever to lift your arms above your head when Sukuna tells you to do so, letting him undress you too, pulling off your shirt, and then opening your bra expertly with one hand. He lets your bra drop to the floor before he replaces it with his large tattooed hands, cupping your tits and brushing his thumbs over your hardened nipples while his lips find yours in a sloppy, wet, open-mouthed tongue kiss.

From that moment on, the only thing you know are passionate, wet kisses and wandering hands, tearing at each other's clothes until you are both naked and writhing against each other on Sukuna's bed. You don't have to think. You just have to feel. And it's really as easy as he said. No shame, no worries, just pleasure.

Soon you are on all fours, your ass up, your face pressed into Sukuna's pillow, which smells so intoxicatingly like him. And you mewl loudly into that pillow because Sukuna dicks you down so good that you feel like you will melt.

He is kneeling behind you, one foot placed on the mattress, his large, strong hands on your hips as he takes you from behind, fucking you hard and fast and so deep. Dominant, in control, and knowing exactly how to fuck you right.

His strong hands hold your hips tightly, pulling you closer again anytime you try to get away when you think the pleasure becomes too much. But Sukuna won't have it and just holds you in place while his sexy, low voice tells you,

"Stay here, princess. I'm gonna make you feel so fucking good. Just be my good girl and let go. You can be as messy and loud in my bed as you want."

His words drag a loud, desperate cry from your lips as Sukuna's hips hump against your ass and your swollen pussy, fucking his thick cock deep into you, hitting your sweet spot in a maddeningly delicious rhythm.

You feel tears run down your cheeks from how good you are getting fucked, and you do as Sukuna says. You relax and let him take full control.

You are a babbling, sobbing mess, but it's just like Sukuna said, you know, here with him, you don't have to be embarrassed or shy. You eagerly lift your ass, pushing back against Sukuna's body, taking his thick cock deeper, begging him for more, whining loudly anytime his thick mushroom head hits your sweet spot.

And Sukuna laughs and moans, and it's so sexy that it makes your pussy clench around his gorgeous, talented cock, making him groan that sexy breathless "fuuuck" that drives you absolutely wild.

The way Sukuna fucks you with those deep, hard strokes makes you almost delirious. His gorgeous cock is giving you such a fluttery feeling in your stomach and in your pussy, growing more blissful every moment.

You let out a high-pitched squeal when you cum, muffling the noise by pressing your face deeper into Sukuna's pillow. And Sukuna fucks you through it, groaning in that sexy low voice,

"Fuck yeah, princess. Cum on my fucking cock!"

Your breath hitches, and you scream and kick your legs, cumming so hard and intense that you think you will lose your mind.

And Sukuna groans and grabs your wrists with his large rough hands, keeping them in place as he pushes you down on the bed with his heavy body, mounting you, fucking you into the mattress. He snaps his hips faster, fucking his twitching cock into you at a maddening pace that makes the headboard of the bed bang loudly against the wall.

You whimper needily at the feeling of Sukuna's heavy weight on top of you and the switch of position it brings with it. The earlier doggy turned into a deep, intense prone bone that makes Sukuna's cock push even deeper into your sensitive pussy.

One of Sukuna's large hands grabs your chin roughly, turning your head to the side so he can give you nasty deep tongue kisses while he fucks you with those deep, intense strokes that grow harder and become more erratic as he nears his orgasm.

You mewl under him when you hear him growl and feel him push his cock deep inside you. And then Sukuna stills his movements, cumming inside you, fucking his cum into the condom he put on this time.

His hand around your wrists squeezes them tightly. His breath is loud and harsh, and a low, sexy moan falls from his lips only centimeters from your lips before Sukuna kisses you again.

A breathless laugh escapes his lips, and you feel his smirk against your mouth as Sukuna starts to move again, slow, shallow thrusts, fucking his whole orgasm into you while you mewl softly beneath him and squeeze your pussy around him.

With a last, teasing flick of his tongue, Sukuna pulls away.

He rolls off you and lets his heavy body fall onto the mattress next to you, a broad, satisfied grin on his tattooed face and a low laugh falling from his lips.

One of his large hands lands on your naked ass giving it a squeeze, and then his tattooed fingers trail slowly up and down your thigh, caressing it as if you are a beloved pet he is pleased with.

You still feel dazed when Sukuna gets up after a moment, shamelessly walking around his room completely naked, throwing the condom into the trash bin before he bends down to pick up his black boxer briefs from his bedroom floor.

He pulls them up lazily with one tattooed hand as he walks over to his desk, making you lick your lips as you watch his gorgeous muscles flex while he moves. He grabs his cigarettes and a lighter from his desk and opens the window next to it, leaning casually against the window frame as he lights a cigarette and brings it to his lips, inhaling the smoke with a soft little hum.

Sukuna turns his head, looking at you with heavy-lidded maroon eyes and a lazy smirk.

"See, I told you it's easy."

And you laugh and roll on your side, pulling Sukuna's blanket over your naked body, feeling exhilarated and a bit dreamy after such amazing sex.

"Yeah, you were right."

Sukuna smirks, getting that smug expression on his tattooed face again.

"I know. I am always right."

He turns his face to blow his cigarette smoke out the window while you groan in playful annoyance.

You walk out of Sukuna's bedroom fifteen minutes later, after you both got dressed again, and Sukuna showed you the various medals and trophies on the small shelf above his desk and explained what he got them for. It felt less awkward than after your locker room fuck, though it still makes you a bit shy to just talk to him like you are friends after he was balls-deep in you and you cried into his pillow from how good he fucked you.

Sukuna is close behind you, bumping into you when you stop short as your gaze lands on Yuuji.

Sukuna's twin is lounging on the couch in the shared living area, his feet resting on the couch table while he watches TV. Yuuji turns his head to greet you and smiles his big sunshine smile at you, honey eyes wandering from you to his brother and back again.

And you smile back awkwardly, feeling your face get hot again,

"Hey, Yuuji."

How long has he been here? Did he hear you? Does he know what you did in Sukuna's room?

You quickly flee towards the door, but before you can leave, Yuuji laughs happily and says,

"So Kuna found you! He was complaining the whole day because he hadn't seen you. I'm glad you came over!"

You blink and look back over your shoulder just in time to see a protein bar getting thrown at Yuuji's head while Sukuna yells at his brother to shut the fuck up.

And you quickly slip out the door, grinning from ear to ear as you hear the twins bickering. Your steps feel incredibly light as you jog down the staircase, snickering to yourself the whole way to the front door.

I FELT THE FLUTTERY FEELING IN MY STOMACH AND MY PUSSY TOO 😭😭💗💗

Here we are in a fuckbuddies arrangement with our sexy hockey boy ;) Also, big applause to Yuuji for exposing his dear brother. I know you are obsessed with us, Kuna. It's ok, baby 😘

I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Comments and reblogs would be very sweet!

In Chapter 6, Reader and Sukuna have some more fun with each other + also some bonding moments.

Thank you so much for all the love on this story!! It makes me so happy 💗💗

[damn-stark]

After All

Reiner Braun x reader

Requested by @lilshades “Helloo!!Hello!!! So I've got a Reiner request. What if Reiner and the Reader are exes and meet up again at the wedding of Jean and Mikasa (or any of your fav couple) Reader being the Maid of Honor and Reiner being the Best Man....BUT neither one of them know about the other presence UNTIL it's time to go to the altar and start their friends wedding???? 😀 The rest I leave to your awesome and brilliant mind....”

Warning- FLUFF, mention of alcohol use and Armin x Annie in case some of y’all don’t like that.

———-

Couldn’t say the dress you’re wearing is the most comfortable thing, but it’s Annie’s wedding, and you are her maid of honor, so you had to suck it up and wear it for just today.

All day….

“Why are you taking longer than I am?” Annie asks behind the door.

You open the door and let it open slowly to reveal you in the long tight light pink dress, and light makeup on your face.

Annie immediately smiles upon looking at you with a frown on your face—“you look nice,” she compliments you genuinely, “what’s the big deal?”

You walk over to the mirror at the end of the room to look at yourself in the dress. Annie follows behind you and stays behind you to watch you until you turn to face her to answer her a bit uneasy to your appearance. “I’m just not used to wearing dresses, that's all.”

You don't further the conversation about yourself and instead you study her in her white dress again, and can’t help but smile widely. “You look amazing.”

Annie hides her bright red blush by turning her head since she couldn’t hide her reaction behind her hair today, but she can’t help but smile too. “You’ve said that already.”

You huff in a lighthearted manner and walk to grab her bouquet of flowers. “Yeah well it’s true. How are you feeling?”

“Nervous,” she admits and takes the bouquet from you. “Very nervous. I’ve never felt this nervous in my life.”

“It's normal,” you reassure her softly. “I bet Armin might be more nervous than you though. He doesn’t do well in situations like these, but for his sake he better toughen up.”

Annie exhales deeply and begins to follow behind you as you walk out the room to finally head to the chapel across the street.

“Wait,” Annie blurts before she could turn the hall to enter the main room. “I need another minute.”

You stop and turn to wait for her, seeing that she took a moment to sit down to do a few breathing exercises to calm herself down. You sit beside her and take her hand, smiling very faintly as you both look out at the chapel across the street, seeing that the doors were open, and only Mikasa waited outside for the sign to give the choir that Annie was coming to start the music.

“This is the moment…” you pause and sigh. “Your life is going to change forever. In the best way possible.”

“Maybe,” she adds out of nerves.

You scoff and giggle at her comment withlist you look over at her to counter her comment. “No, it is going to be good. You have a positive attitude about it. Besides Armin’s a good man, you’ll make each other happy.”

Annie drops her head and smiles at her bouquet of flowers in her hands. “Thanks,” she whispers before lifting her head and sharing a sweet lingering gaze. “Thank you for being here with me too.”

“Anytime,” you grin and stand up. “Now let’s go get you married.”

——

There was no need to feel so nervous because you weren’t the one getting married, but knowing that people were going to watch you while you walked down the aisle to reach your spot behind Annie, made you feel like you could throw up and then run away to wait for it all to be over.

You wish you could honestly, but you were holding strong for her.

“Ready everyone?” Mikasa asks you and the other girls standing behind you.

You meet her gaze and then glance back at Annie standing behind the line to then answer Mikasa. “Only if Annie is.”

There was a second of silence before a whisper. “I’m ready.”

Mikasa smiles slightly before opening the two large wooden doors, letting the music that played and the choir that sang sound louder now that the wooden barrier wasn’t there to block the noise. You’re told to wait a moment before you can begin walking down, but it was a mistake since now that the door opened, people stood up to see Annie, meaning they were watching you now too; you could feel your stomach turning and the spit rising to your throat.

“Go,” Mikasa whispers.

You draw in a small breath and proceed to exhale slowly before you put one foot forward to slowly make your way down first.

It was going okay, all things considered, you were avoiding looking at the few guests they had, instead you looked down at Armin who seemed to be sweating like crazy but trying to cover that up by wiping it off his face with a cloth. You looked at the pink bouquet of flowers that were hanging on the side of the benches, and the white carpet rolled down the aisle for the special event. You peeked at the well dressed man that was going to marry them, and thr further you got down the more you saw of the guests, and then saw Reiner behind Armin.

He had been hidden behind the heads and bodies of the guests who stood up to watch Annie, but now that you were making your way to your own spot, you caught sight of him and he instantly saw you.

You didn’t even know he was going to be here. Yeah Reiner and Annie were comrades, but Annie tolerated so much of him, and he thinks he’s caused too much pain to everyone in Paradis, so you didn’t think he’d be here. You especially didn’t think he’d be so close behind Armin, Reiner seemed to be his best man….

Which wasn’t surprising considering how Armin is, he probably didn’t want to choose between Connie or Jean so he went with the safer option so neither man could get offended. It’s understandable.

Nevertheless, Reiner was there, in a black suit that was well fitted on his body, but not around his biceps; the material fit him too tight, you could see how he flexed his muscle upon seeing you. But it wasn’t a bad look, he didn’t look bad in a suit at all actually, he looked very handsome, very elegant. Then again not a day has gone by where you didn’t think he looked nice and handsome.

It’s been five years since you’ve seen him. It’s been five years since you broke up because you didn’t desire to be in Marley anymore, and couldn’t handle all those political meetings you all needed to attend to discuss peace after the war ended. He came to Paradis when your friends returned home, but you didn’t see him, the moment you were close he had left for the boat just five minutes before.

It’s been so long, yet, not a year has gone by where you stopped loving him. You missed him, your heart ached for him every single day.

You wonder did he feel the same?

Yes, you saw how baffled he looked when you locked eyes, but that could mean anything really.

Maybe he never wanted to speak to you, or he just felt nothing but platonic feelings for you now after five years. Maybe he has a partner at home.

Annie, nor Pieck have mentioned anything about him having a partner, but then again why would they? They knew your feelings for him never died, so they probably were saving you from the pain.

Then again Annie would’ve said something after reading it on a letter from someone from her home town after these two years that have passed. She wouldn't keep that to herself, she’s too straightword, and you are her dearest friend, so she wouldn't keep such news a secret.

So maybe he didn’t have anyone. But still, did he still feel the same love for you like how you felt for him? You need to know because as you saw him on that altar, in that suit, with those sweet golden eyes of his, and that soft look he carried, it felt like you could melt. whatever nerves you felt for being seen and judged, disappeared since his presence alone still brought you comfort. Now all the nerves you felt were butterflies in your stomach and the rapid beating of your heart that beat solely for him.

Now your eagerness to leave this chapel was to talk to him and figure everything out in hopes there was a sign that he felt a spark of something. You hoped with your whole heart that he still felt something.

And that’s all you could think about throughout the entire ceremony, Reiner and your hope. Everytime you met each other’s gaze, or stole glances at each other when neither was looking throughout the ceremony, your hope intensified.

That fear also let fear begin to sneak itself in your heart too though. Fear that he woudlnt feel a thing and you’d just be heart broken.

Maybe it was your fault for getting your hopes and being delusional, but you couldn’t help it. You loved Reiner. Now you know that more than ever.

Hopefully it’s not too late.

——

“A refill please,” you tell the bartender as you push your cup towards him.

He reaches before he speaks. “Of course.” He turns away and does as he’s told, letting you wait at the bar.

“I remember a time where you couldn’t even smell alcohol.” You hear Reiner say behind you, making your body stiffen where you stood so he had to stop beside you so you could see him. “Now, it seems you’re—”

“You can’t judge me,” you cut him with a faint smirk as you turn your head to meet his gaze. “We’ve been through a lot. If alcohol is an acquaintance of mine, you can’t judge me.”

Reiner chuckles and watches you receive your drink whilst he responds. “Well as long as you can’t live without one another then it’s okay.”

You take a sip of your drink and hum when you put it down.

Reiner sighs and turns on his side to lean his body on the bar before he continues to change the subject in a different tone of voice. “You look very beautiful.”

Your eyes shift to him and you feel your entire face burn and your heart skip a beat as the butterflies in your stomach intensified, mixing the alcohol in your system. “Uh,” you try to respond as if unaffected. “Thank you.” You turn your body to face him with a faint smile. “I remember a time when you couldn’t even compliment me without turning bright red. Times have changed.” You lift your drink in your hand as if making a toast with him. “Cheers to that.”

Reiner looks down for a split second to smile wider and then returns his gaze to you to go along with you. “Cheers to the good change.”

Your smile widens and your eyes drift to your drink. You would’ve brought up the subject about the feelings that hadn’t changed, but you were too afraid to bring it up and risk being rejected because at least right now you’re friends. Who knows, maybe telling him that you still loved him would just change things in a bad way.

However….

“About change,” he cautiously brings up as he keep his eyes on you. “One thing that hasn’t changed is…” he pauses and exhales deeply before continuing. “My feelings for you.”

Once again your body stiffens, this time it feels as if your heart is frozen in place too. And the feelings in your stomach also seem to mix a lot more.

“Uh,” you mutter and set your drink down. “Really?”

Reiner scoffs lightheartedly and pushes himself to stand straight up to motion out to where you could speak in peace without any background noise from the party.

You leave your drink behind and follow him out, taking a peek at Annie who caught you in that instant but didn’t try to question a thing.

“I know it’s been five years since we last talked but,” he pauses again and makes sure to stop under a large tree that was a bit far from the party so his voice could be heard clearly by you, so you wouldn’t miss a thing he could confess. “I want to tell you that nothing has changed.” He sees that you had stopped a bit far from him and slowly steps towards you with a very sweet assuring look on his face. “You may have moved on but if there’s a possibility of you still feeling at least a fraction of what you felt then I will fight for you. For us, because I haven’t stopped loving you for a single minute, hour, day or year that has gone by.” He smiles softly and when he’s close enough he grabs your cheeks.

His hands were a bit cold and rough, but none of that mattered, all you cared about were his words. That confession you were afraid you’d only hear in your dreams.

“So tell me, y/n,” Reiner continued in a soft whisper since he didn’t need to project his voice loud since he stood so close to you. “Do you feel the same? Do you want to try and be happy together? It doesn’t have to be forever if you don’t want to, but if we can try for as long as you want.”

His words leave you completely speechless, so all you manage is tears, a huff of air and a nod with a grin on your face.

Reiner beams at you and leans forward to take you in for a soft and passionate kiss. You melt in his arms and can’t help but wrap your arms around his neck to push him as close as you possibly can.

He doesn’t complain and just smiles at you when you pull away for a second. He didn’t need to hear a verbal answer, he knew what you felt with that shared kiss under that green tree that stood far from the party.

After all he knows you more than anyone else ever could.

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "at least somebody's listening" edition!

Shawn was trying to read a story and, well

Shawn: at least someone's listening.

Quil: ha!

Clover and Jesse are so interested they fell asleep, it appears Quil liked whatever story Shawn was reading!

And clay loved the story so much it just lulled him right to sleep too XD

Anna: are you going to boat all the way to Ushuaia?

Dan: boat? Of course not!

Dan: I'm going to SWIM all the way to Ushuaia

Anna is once again worried for Dan. Dude always takes extreme swimming to the next level, she's probably thinking "please tell me you're not gonna swim through the drake passage"

"hold baby like phone!"

Clover is a little confused why she's being held by a person

And the finale!

Lil shade is trying so hard to be brave.

Quil: ah little guy it's just a crab!

He failed

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "a menace to tech Bros" edition!

Where Shawn's second job is being a troll XD

Anna: what are you doing?

Shawn: being a menace on a throwaway account.

"IStealAiArt"

Anna is absolutely loving the fact Shawn takes his trolling seriously when he's invested. Shawn is having the time of his life scaring Ai-Bros XD

Quil: Shawn!?

Lil shade having one of his more intense visions and Quil is absolutely worried for the fella, luckily he gets through it with only a slight headache.

Suddenly dragon!

Amaterius: what's that?

Anna: a phone.

Anna introduces technology to a creature whose world tech level is that of the medieval age. What could possibly go wrong!

Certified baby moment, it's been a while since I've drawn Slate and Sunkist!

And the finale, the bear fam!

Herbert: get me the hell out of here--

Herbert is having the worst day of his life while his two siblings and his mom are having a blast!

The water is shallow thankfully, Herbert doesn't Care. Herbert hates being in water unless it's warm and toasty.

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "we're on the menu" edition!

Anna has learned something new and it's that even leopard seals are afraid of the sea panda

Anna: why is she looking at us like that?

Slate: we're on her menu.

Anna: "we--"

Anna: the FUCK you mean WE!?

Anna does not know how to deal with that information at the moment and honestly such a big mood because when I discovered this neither did I!

Shawn got stuck. He hates that he's stuck but at least he's got someone to talk to!

LilShade: I hate this place. I just want to to home.

LilShade venting his frustrations of being stuck in one place to the local zooguin. He understands his plight.

And the finale!

Herbert: who are you?

"they did it again..."

Herbert: ...what do you MEAN "they" did it again??

Herbert has one hell of a story he's about to get dropped on him.

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "Eldritch conversation" edition!

Where Anna and Dan are simply having a lunch discussion

Anna: could humans be considered Eldritch to us?

Dan: if so then I guess I'm immune to Eldritch madness.

Anna: o-hoh no you ain't.

Anna: you totally have Eldritch madness

Dan: are you kidding me-?

Anna: nothing you say makes any sense to us! Therefore, Eldritch madness!

Anna's got a point Dan, you're not escaping the madness allegations!

Suddenly little shade!

LilShade: I frew up.

Kid is just being a kid and also accidentally scaring Shawn and Quil XD

Gariwald: my fellow can you not?

Gariwald and his ghostly adventures of babysitting a millennias old nameless ghost who constantly feels pain 24/7

Its a thankless and endless job

And the finale!

I love this meme and I had to do it with shawn

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "you're nuts" edition!

Where Anna is unsurprisingly not keen on Shawn going up the toughest mountain

Anna: Shawn... you're nuts.

Anna: what you're planning is dangerous. At BEST.

Anna: I can't reasonably allow you to do this, so many things could go wrong!

Shawn: I'm... prepared for the worst.

Anna: Shawn--

LilShade: you're gonna die.

Anna: PLEASE say /j!

Anna is even less inclined to let Shawn do this willingly when his own son, a god damn seer, says crap like that. She's reasonably scared AaaaAAA-

Shawn: Hey guy! Why does rookie call you babygirl?!

Jet pack guy: that's 40 more laps for you, Shawn.

JPG dreads having to do the yearly fitness test with Shawn because he knows Shawn hates it and will make it so, so silly XD

Suddenly it's the future guy again!

Shawn: so you're from the future? Nearish future too? That's pretty cool ngl! Its also pretty odd that you look similar to my son's best friend but I've seen weirder shit

"meow meow meow meow meow meow meow"

There is not a singular thought in this fellas brain

And the finale!

Heart: hello lil guy!

"holy crap tol."

Heart the 10ft behemoth strikes back!

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "the narrow window of funniness" edition!

Where its basically just me finding the funniness in penguins XD

LilShade: feed me papa

Quil: my penguin in Christ we are the same weight

I absolutely adore the fact that there's this small timeframe window where the heaviest penguin fledgeling is equal to the lightest adult penguin.

And I had to draw this with LilShade and Quil AKFHAKFHA

Anna: so what's you're favorite thing to do in hell- roaring mountain?

Rusty: get shot at.

Anna: oh-

Anna: what about you Scruff?

Scruff: oh, you know. Wolverines.

Anna asked the two wolfdog bros how they were doing and their replies couldn't be any more blunt. She's probably taken the hint that this specific place is more PVP-enabled than expected *whEEZE*

"you keep visiting us, it's pretty endearing honestly."

"it's nice to have a visitor! Even if it's of the avian kind"

"oh! The helicopter is gonna arrive in a day or two! We must be getting going up that mountain then, see you later, ghost!"

"we'll tell Mai we saw you! She'll be happy to know you're well"

Shawn keeps visiting the two humans for the two weeks they're stuck on the island, and when they finally begin to leave for their little danger trek, he's obviously torn between letting them go or being their guide...

And the finale!

Shawn: hey Anna, I got something I need to tell you.

Anna: sup Shawn! What is it?

Shawn: I've decided. I'm guiding those two humans up the toughest mountain.

Anna: *Chokes on coffee*

Anna was certainly not that surprise in the morning.

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "the metal iceberg gifted it to me" edition!

Where LilShade got a suprise present!

Anna: who gave you that bud?

LilShade: uhh... A giant metal iceberg I think...?

Anna: ???

Anna is a little confused, it'll soon click for her that he means a human boat XD

The unfortunate child on that ship is down one teddy bear *wheeze*

Violet: all this trouble just to sneak back into your own house?

LilShade: yeah but it'll be easy. My dad is a deep sleeper--

*Shade and quil, about to sneak out.*

Violet: huh.

LilShade had snuck out at night to show violet the tallest mountain, que them sneaking back into the house only to witness Shawn and Quil at the door!

Quil: Soo... Do we gotta have a talk or-

LilShade: PA NO!

Quil: lol

Lilshade: wait why are you BOTH sneaking out!?

Shawn: I thought you were ASLEEP! We just wanted to see the Aurora borealis!

Nothing like late night questioning that'll end up with the four of them choosing to see the latest natural wonder happening on the island!

And the finale!

Shawn: the two humans have taken residency in the ski lodge for now.

Mai: ah! That's a relief! There will be a helicopter from the research ship coming in a week. But it will be touching down ontop of the toughest mountain. I tried to tell them not but you know how people are.

Shawn: ah...

Mai: hopefully, the two will be ok getting up the mountain!

Mai: as for you, I know what you're thinking. Don't do anything foolish.

Shawn: hmm... alright Mai.

Shawn giving Mai a little update on the two stranded himans and she tells him that they'll be out of the island in a week. Also tells Shawn to not do anything reckless after hearing that information.

But we all know Shawn, reckless is his middle name.

[wildcardaces]

@agent-a-cpfancomic "finally awake" edition!

Where Shawn finally wakes up!

Mari: how long has he been here...?

Anna: a week now.

Mari: and how long has Shawn been... out?

Anna: also a week...

Mari: yikes, that is pretty bad. I understand why he's been visiting so often now.

Mari finding out why her son has been so persistent to stay by Shawn? It's more likely than you think! She would probably be warmed by this but at the same time also concerned. Anna is probably the same way too aaaa-

Thankfully, Shawn pulls through!

Shawn: ...quil...?

Quil: ...Shawn?

Shawn: whuh...what happened?

Quil: whoa easy! D-dont worry about it...!

Shawn accidentally gives Quil a spook by sitting himself up, but despite this and the fact Shawn isn't out of the woods yet, he IS awake! And I believe Quil would be so relieved and over the moon about it! *Cries*

Suddenly clover!

Clover: ok! Just to let you all know... Im trans!

Orion, Rudy, Oreo, Alfie and Violet: Same!

The gangs all here! Clover felt like she needed to get it out of the way first but forgot that she's surrounded by the gayest group of friends family and coworkers one could ever wish for AKFHWKFHWKFHWJF

And the finale!

Anna: soo...shade? Why is violet doing that?

LilShade: doing what?

Anna: you know...that.

LilShade: ohh...I dunno actually, apparently it's a zooguin, or just in general a captive thing?

Anna doesn't know why violet keeps pacing a certain diameter during the first year or so of their arrival to club penguin, LilShade is just as confused but he knows that it's got something to do with being cooped up in one place for so long.
