The world is a cruel place, but yet so beautiful in many ways. People finding their purposes, people finding love, people fighting in wars and people trying to live in this world. My life felt lonely, knowing there is no home for me to go back too. My parents died from the titans, and all I could do was move forward and saying I'm okay. Yet, there was this one boy that my eyes would widen, someone I have admired for years. His name is Armin Arlert. A very special boy, so smart, so handsome, and such a kind tender heart. 

Walking along the port on the edge of Paradis Island I watch the ocean, enjoying the warmth of the sun kissing my skin gently. I close my eyes humming a soft tune that my mother would sing me to sleep, enjoying my free time while i had it before I go and train later on. My feet sinks into the sand, with the sand squishing between my toes as the water washes my feet.

Armin and I had a very close friendship, so close people assumed we were actually together. When I almost lost him to Bertholdt I felt like my entire world had crashed upon me, bearing the burden on my shoulders of his death. He risked his entire life, so we could reach the edge of the island and far beyond. Needless to say, he was still chosen to become the Colossal titan and only get to live for a certain amount of years. It made me realise I would not be able to be by his side for long, but it seems he has only nine or eight years left. It pains me to know his life would be short, but I hope it's possible he would survive.

"I'm nervous," i mumble, wondering where Eren went. He just disappeared out of nowhere without telling us, and now Captain Levi is pissed off about it. I was worried, and concerned on Eren's whereabouts but.......I am getting sick of war. 

My eyes lower from the sun as I take in the sunrise breathing in the morning fresh air, when I hear someone coming from behind. Turning around I see the blonde male walking up to me, seeing how much he has changed. I have always had this warm feeling around him, and it felt good.

"Hey (Y/N), what are you doing out here by yourself?" he asks me gently, standing beside me.

"Just wanted to see the sunrise before the new day," I reply, smiling warmly. 

"You seem to always smile, when really we are.......all suffering," He breaks the silence, as I turn to him.

"Well we have to lie to ourselves that we are okay, I mean.....we need to push forward," I comment, when he sighs deeply placing a hand on my head. My eyes widen, blood rushes to my cheeks in response.

"You know you can always talk to me (Y/N), remember we have known each other since we were six," He points out, his voice sounded very serious. My eyes widen knowing he was always there, helping me with anything. Then I met Mikasa and Eren, and Mikasa was always by Eren's side like a bodyguard for him. Looking back, I seemed to be Armin's bodyguard.

"I k-know, but anyway I need to go and train," i say, walking away from him. Before I could walk away I felt him grasp my arm firmly, making me halt in position slowly turning to him in confusion. His eyes held determination, his blue bell eyes pierced into mine like he has lost a lot in his life. I could feel my heart flutter with his gentle touch, creating more emotional feelings in my heart.

"Remember our promise?" he questions, my breathe hitches in my throat. A promise we made as kids when we were only eight years old. So long ago, and yet we still managed to survive this long. "That promise was one day.....I will marry you, and protect you with my life in return."

I smile gentle lowering my eyes, "I'm remember, we were so young and innocent?" I chuckle gently, when he pulls me into his chest. I gasp in shock with his warmth against me, making me relax within his touch. My hands rest on his firm chest, feeling his index lift my chin up with his knuckle looking deeply into his blue orbs. I could see himself being very serious at this point, before placing one hand against my cheek while the other settles around my waist.

"Dammit, (Y/N)..........I want us to be together, I love you too much to let you," he whispers, his lips purse together before licking his bottom lip to put moisture on his dry lips. "You have been by my side, no matter the circumstances. You cried for me, saved me, trained with me, talked with me, cared for me, tended my wounds for me and now......I want to give something in return. Will you be mine, my girlfriend?"

My heart beats heavily against my chest feeling butterflies filling inside my stomach, feeling light tears roll down. A smile curls upon my lips, feeling his thumb wipe away my fallen tears. Right there and then I knew, I love Armin Arlert. He leans down capturing my lips ever so gently, pulling me so close to him. I clung onto his jacket tightly, hopping on my tippy toes to fully capture his soft gentle lips.

We then pulls away ever so slowly leaning our foreheads together, panting heavily hearing him chuckle. "No matter how long I have being a titan, I will make sure we get married before my time is up," He whispers, running his fingers through my hair gently before capturing my lips again.

He moans against the kiss in satisfaction knowing we wanted to hold each other like this for a while, as I wrap my arms around his neck. The way his hands settled around my waist holding me gently but closely, my body grew warm with anticipation.

"Mommy!" i hear, as I turn to see my little two year old waddle towards me. My eyes widen seeing my little baby boy walking towards, his bright blue eyes lighten up in excitement. He leaves his toys behind, looking rather tired.

"Yay, come on.....you can do it!!" I clap, seeing him giggle in fits of laughter. He was so much like his father, blue eyes, round face and cute button nose. Once he touches my hand, I pull him into my arms lifting him up. "Now how about we head to bed, it's late baby.....your tired."

He leans against my shoulder as I pat his back gently rubbing small circles, hearing him slowly falling to sleep. Walking into my bedroom to get my husband to say goodnight, he lifts his head up from his book planting a tender kiss to our son's forehead before I walk out placing our son in bed. 

"Night my special little one," i coo softly, planting a soft tender kiss on his forehead. Once he was sound asleep I close his door slowly, before heading to my room before sliding into bed right beside my one and only boy.

"Hey baby," he greets, kissing me sweetly.

"Hey," I yawn tiredly, stretching my aching muscles.

"Come on, let's get some sleep," he chuckles, as he leans over blowing the candle beside him before sliding in and wrapping his arms around me. I hum softly, lifting my head up I kiss him sweetly as he returns the kiss. 

"I love you," I whisper, already half asleep in a hazy daze.

"I love you too, and I will always love you," he whispers, stroking my hair gently tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. He then rubs my swollen stomach, "You work so hard, you need some rest. I can't believe we get to have a second child in a few months."

"I know," I smile, closing my eyes I rest against his side. "I will cherish you all, no matter how small our memories are."
