Death awaited us.......

Things have always been hard for the survey corps, especially when all they could was scour the vast lands. All we had were our bamboo steel blades, that could only cut the achilles heel of the terrifying beasts that lie behind the Walls of Maria. 

Two Years ago an expedition failed, leaving it to be expelled for a period of time.

Being the only female that had the strength to overcome my fear of the titans, the nightmares still haunted me every night. Learning what little about titans, severing their limbs wasn't enough. With what little we knew, we had to remain calm and explain further about when we should start the next expedition.

"Dammit," hearing my boyfriend curse beneath his breath, my head drifts up to meet his frustrated gaze.

Closing my novel in hand, I place it to the side table and stood up.

Walking over I stood behind him and began to massage his shoulder gently, kneading my fingers into the tense muscles. Things hasn't been easy since he lost his close friend, Sorum to a titan two years ago. While experimenting the weak points, things went chaotic leaving us to retreat. Almost dying at the hands of the beast, Sorum risked his life for my own. 

Ever since, I blamed myself for his death. 

I even apologised to his wife many times, but now I cover my own grief and aided my boyfriend. While massaging his shoulders I felt warm calloused fingers drift over my own, before taking them in his own turning me around. Placing me upon his lap, his hands drift to settle upon my waist before resting his head against my shoulder.

"Sorry........I'm just...." he couldn't find the words, before I wrap my arms around his broader chest. With my head in the crook of his neck, I embraced his warmth.

"You don't need to say anything, just hold me.....alright?"

He hums softly feeling his hold tighten a little, as I shuffle a little. Pecking the base of my neck, my cheeks warm up in response to his tender touch. 

After a while of holding each other, we pull away before hearing a knock at the door. Quickly hopping off him, I straighten myself first before going back to my seat with my book.

"You may come in!" Carlo calls, hearing the door click open. "Father....what.....can I do for you?"

The Commander, I mean former Commander glances my way sending me a warm smile, seeing the kindness behind his dark grey eyes.

"Can't I see my son and my beautiful daughter-in-law to be?"

Blushing by the title he's given me, I lift the book to cover my face. Yes we're engaged as I've forgotten to mention, but sometimes I wondered if I was worth being his wife. Would I be good enough? Will I be able to be a good mother? Cook?

Carlo smirks lightly, "Yeah you can, I'm just surprised......you know....after what had happened...."

The old man sighs deeply understanding what he meant by, "No, I actually wanted to take (Y/N) for a walk and speak with her,"

My Fiance glances my way for a moment, before turning back to his father.

"What for, may I ask?" he raises an eyebrow.
