cheers and screams filled up the room as the sportscaster announced how there were roughly 10 seconds left of the game and your guys' team was 2 points behind from tying with the visiting team. fuck i hope i don't miss this. You quickly kissed your left fist before pointing up to the sky, glancing over the sea of people looking for Mikasa.
Both your eyes met each other and you pointed to her and gave her a toothy smile before looking at the basket and that one player defending you.
Seeing as how they were gonna steal your ball, you knew you had to act soon. So you stepped your right leg forward quickly watching as they backed up and fell on their ass, you passed the ball in between your legs and caught it in your right hand before taking a step back to the three-point line, shooting and making it in the basket. A wave of relief washed over you as you heard the announcer speak along with your teammates jogging over to you, faces filled with joy.
"It went in! the game-winner y/n l/n making a three-pointer within the remaining time of 2 seconds! the home team won because of y/n with the score of 73-72!"

Grabbing a face towel on the bench you turned as you felt someone tap your shoulder, hoping it wasn't one of your fangirls you groaned before turning.
"y/n what the fuck. if I was one of your fan girls I would be all over you right now."
you chuckled, fetching your water bottle and chugging a big amount of water as it glides down your neck. "thank you Ymir, coach might kill me though. I could've passed it to you. After this I'm gonna look for Mikasa so be quick, I can tell you got something to say."
"god, the water running down your neck was even hotter. hope someone recorded that! anyway, with the amount of attention you're getting outside it's gonna be hard to get to Mikasa, have fun!"
you groaned as you stared at the back of her head, looking as she jogged over to Mikasa's blonde best friend with a dirty grin on her face, probably bragging to historia about how good she played. she said she'd distract all these people away from you.
Draping the face towel over your head you hoped that was enough for people to not see much of your face. Turning on your phone you realized jean sent you something a few minutes ago.
jean boy!!

Grateful for Jean's help you made a mental note to follow her on instagram later on, before skimming for her figure along the benches.
Seeing as how happy she looked while staring down at her phone you assumed she was texting jaeger boy. Ignoring that you decided to tap her shoulder and sit down next to her.
Giving her a large, genuine smile you were ready to execute your plan and charm Mikasa.
"hey... You're basically my lucky charm and I just wanna thank you for helping me win the game. Is it okay to take you out somewhere, perhaps this weekend?"
god, you were hoping this would work.
"y/n im not into girls and i don't wanna go on a date, especially with you."
ouch. let me try to fix this real quickkk...
"did i say it was a date? We could go as friends, never hurt anyone."
why am i actually getting nervous, i probably look all flustered and sweaty right now
wiping your forehead, your leg unconsciously began to bounce up and down rapidly while you were waiting for the moment she responded.
but god did she love how nervous you were getting right now. the way you were so bold and confident around your fans but when it came to her you were a nervous wreck, like she was a middle school crush to you all over again.
she loved having this power over people and hopes that it won't go away, especially with you. she never knew why but it always made her heart skip a beat when she saw you staring at her, refusing to let her blush spread along her cheeks and looking away from you if she did think it was there.
but her stoic straight face always made it seem like she was weirded or bored out from even glancing at you.
the corners of her lips tugging into a smile as she spoke, "depends on where it is, text me the location and make sure it's good. im free this Saturday, 5 o'clock sharp. I'm never late, hope it's the same with you. "
sighing as she grabbed her bag and slung it over her shoulder, she wished to see your face right now, knowing that it was likely melting with excitement.

you felt like a giddy young kid all over again. once she accepted to go out with you, you wanted to celebrate and fling your arms in the air and tell everyone in sight about how the Mikasa Ackerman actually accepted to go out for coffee with you. hopefully, it'd be coffee.
you haven't felt this way since Annie was in the picture and now it felt like you were moving on for once. sure you felt like your heart couldn't take these old emotions all again at once but you were proud and impressed of yourself
You marked the special date on the calendar app, just have to wait two more days...
pulling your phone out from your pocket you jumped on your bed and laid down continuing to tell the group chat enthusiastically about the wonderful news you got for them.
