Under That Tree (Bertholdt x reader)

Chapter 3

You froze. A frigid feeling seemed like it touched through the cloth of your clothes to your skin, because it was so piercing cold. You flinched and rotated your body around to face whoever just tapped you. "Oh! Y/N! I- I'm so sorry! Really, I didn't mean to scare you like that. Are you alright?" a tall, lean figure in the shadows stammered. That voice, so reassuring, comforting, sounded so worried. The shadow covered person then came out of the dark, being that the moonlight was bright. You knew you had recognized that voice from somewhere.

It was Bertholdt's, but it sounded so much deeper?? What happened to his voice?!? Why is it so.... different?!? Maybe it's because he just woke up. Did I wake him up?? Oh god I feel so bad now. I didn't want anyone to follow me, and I definitely didn't want to wake someone up. "Ah, no, it's okay! I'm fine, really. Just a little startled." You reassured him. "Well, that's good then. Uh-uhm would it be okay if I could, maybe sit with you? I mean if thats alright with you, I don't want you to feel disturbed or, anything." He stuttered while looking in every possible direction but yours, placing a hand behind his neck. You "took a second" to think this through, but really all you ever wanted in the world was to do something like this with him. "Hmm, I guess you could." You replied absurdly.
