Y/N POV
I went out for a walk to clear my head from all the studying. I went to the one place that always calmed me down. A beautiful place for a picnic. I should call my friends to have a picnic here later. That'd be so fun. Soon, I arrived in a meadow full of daisies. Daisies were my favorite flower.

Daisies symbolize childhood innocence, simplicity, and joy. Memories I had as a kid were precious. But one stood out more than the rest. It was when my dad had taken me there for the first time. I was 4 years old. Ever since, it's been my favorite flower. Dad always took me here for dad-daughter dates. I loved those. Though, it all stopped on July 28, 2017. The day my dad passed.

We found out he had heart cancer.

But it's been 5 years since then. Dad would want me to move on. And to be happy. This is also the place where he gave me my nickname: 'Daisy'.

After a few minutes of admiring the view, I called my friends to have a picnic.

EREN POV
I've been roaming around the streets till I reached a lake on my own for Armin and the others had something to do. My mind suddenly replayed my encounter with that girl. I sure feel like Hanz wanting to get married with Anna even though we just met-- well, I wouldn't say 'met'. Then I smelled the scent of daisies, which reminded me of the girl even more.

Hm. A little visit won't hurt.

I saw a cluster of pyramidal spruce trees, and a wide meadow of daisies. It was beautiful. Maybe I should go there. It looks quite calming. Breezy. I could read the book Mikasa insisted on reading. Though it's probably boring. Where should I sit? Oh there. Maybe under that tree. Or the branches.

As what I would assume is 5 meters from a tree, there I saw a beautiful lady. Her hair danced in sync with the breeze. The sight is indeed breathtaking. It was her. She was giggling as she plucked a daisy and put it on her ear. Then she spun around, arms in the air. Crap, did she see me? Hopefully not. I don't want her to think I'm a creep.

I'll take my chances to talk to her. I tapped her shoulder. "Yes?" She looked at me. "Hm. Oh, yes! You are that boy who looked at me in the mirror!" I flushed since she still remembered. "Yes, uh-- what are you doing here?" She looked around. "I came here to remember a few memories. And to clear my head off things."

"Would you-- uhh-- like to be friends?" That's so straightforward, idiot. She's gonna say n- "Sure." Oh. Well that could've gone worse. "I'm Eren. Eren Jaeger." She extended her arm to shake mine, but instead, kissed her hand. Well crap. She probably thinks I'm weird now. "Pleasure." She smiled and walked towards the tree. This is awkward.

Alright, you nosy shit, it's time to ask her the real question. "Hey, uhm, what's your name?" She jumped off the branch. I think she hesitated answering my question. "That is something I cannot answer." She smiled and giggled, plucking another daisy. And climbing the tree once more. She looked at me, waiting for me to go with her. I saw her face.

A good look at her face. She seems familiar. Like I've seen her on campus. But that's impossible. I know everyone on the campus. I think.

Y/N POV
I hate to admit it, but this boy was cute. He made me flustered when he kissed my hand. Nice move, Jaeger. My turn. Just gotta wait for the right moment.

As he was making his way to the tree, I purposely dropped my wallet. Eren picked it up and waved it around, "Hey, your wallet fell." I shaped my lips into an 'O'. "I see." Now's my chance. I jumped off the tree, and swiftly grabbed Eren's shoulders and pushed him down, making it seem like an accident. His eyes widened from the sudden move.

He seemed to notice the position we're in, hence he was turning red. "Thanks, Eren." I slightly whispered, grabbing the wallet. "You're welcome." He was still red.

Checkmate.

I know my flirting tactics. I've seen dad do them to mom.

"So, uh, tell me about yourself." He calmed down. "Well..." We started talking about each other, soon realizing we have a lot in common. He tried tricking me a few times to say my name, but everything failed. My friends texted that they were all busy. But that was okay. I had Eren with me.

I had also texted my mom that I would be staying at a friend's house. Which was obviously a lie. Eren texted Mikasa too. Saying that he made a new friend, and wanted to sleep over. Both agreed. Soon, it was dark. And cold. Luckily for me, I brought 2 blankets, a few snacks, and water. Who knew this would've come in handy?

Or maybe the question is: Who knew I was spending the night with Eren?

We sat on a blanket with another blanket on us, admiring the stars. Soon, I fell asleep. And laid my head on Eren's shoulder. Subconsciously, I felt Eren lay on my head. And we both slept.

This day is a win in my book.
