Extinction (Hange x reader)

I love you

Day 3/7

The first thing I noticed when I woke up was the unfamiliar warmth and the smell of honey. As I opened my eyes mine met a hazel pair that shinned as they smiled at me.  Their hair was all over the face, the result of the lack of glasses, and I instinctively brought my hand up to remove the hairs. They smiled even brighter and I couldn't stop my own lips from tugging upwards.

"Good morning, darling," they said, their breath tickling my face and I became red at the nickname, so I hid my face on the crook of their neck.

a muffled "morning" left my lips as I moved closer to their warmth.

"We have to get up, it's going to be a long day," one of their hands played with my hair while the other rubbed my clothed back gently.

"Nooo," I whined and they chuckled the vibrations of their chest making me smile.

"Okay then, 5 more minutes?" They whispered gently, barely audible and their hand massaged my scalp so lovingly, it made it seem like they loved me. But that's not possible, right?

"mhm, thank you," a raspy chuckle came from their lips and I almost fainted at the sound.

"No need to thank me, dear," they pulled me impossibly closer and our legs tangled together.

"Not just for this," I mumbled and I felt their lips peck my neck slightly, butterflies erupted in my stomach and I held them even tighter.

"BE CAREFUL, MY TITAN!" Hange screamed from the top of the well and I gave them a thumbs up.

"Okay, you got this (Y/N), for Hange," I stabbed myself with the small knife, the stinging feeling quickly left as I was blinded by thunder.

I opened my eyes and saw the grass in front of me, I am aware... I am aware and I am in titan form! I did it!

I lifted myself up, exiting the well and I walked cautiously towards Hange, Levi, and Erwin, trying not to scare them. I gave them a thumbs up on my titan form, which I felt eerily familiar with. Like I had done this before, which I did shift once hut I wasn't aware.

I felt like I had been aware before like this had happened. Stinging pain in my head made me shut my eyes closed, it hurts, it hurts so much, all of my body was in pain. I yelled and images appeared in my head. A key, a man, a golden substance, my mother, Erwin. And death.

The next time I opened my eyes I felt a warm body beside me, someone was carrying me. I was a little scared until honey intoxicated my nose.

"Hange?" I croaked out. Nuzzling my head in their neck.

"It's okay, dear," they said but their voice betrayed them, it was shaky.

"What's wrong? What happened?" They set me on the ground gently, my legs were wobbly but I managed to stand, holding on to their shoulders for support.

"You can't control your titan form, and I don't want them to kill you, (Y/N), they will kill you," tears left their eyes and I quickly embraced the person in front of me. I felt their arms wrap around my waist.  It was just us? Where are Levi and Erwin? I wanted to ask but they were suffering so I held them even tighter.
