Attack on Fanfic (AoT oneshots)

Fireworks (ReaderxArmin)

AN: Hello, peoples! It feels so weird writing in the front of the chapter, but I wanted to say thanks for reading, voting, and commenting! I really appreciate it. Also wanted to say sorry for the very infrequent updating, I have no excuse for it and feel really bad about it. So anyway I hope you enjoy this 4th of July chapter!

Its the fourth of July and you're stuck working the ice cream counter, because your boss decided you couldn't havd the day off. You're bored as hell listening to your friend and coworker, Connie ramble on about how much he hates the summer season.

"I hate the heat, the tourists, and especially the attitudes that those tourists deem appropriate to have towards people who live in a "vacation town" like ours," Connie continues to grumble.

"I know Connie. They act like that every summer," you reply dryly.

"Yeah, yeah but they shouldn't act that way! And you know it!" You look at him in exasperation.

"They'll be gone in a few weeks don't give yourself an ulser," you say trying get him off the touchy subject.

"I kn..." he trails in reply.

"What?" you ask in confusion. When he does answer you look at what he's staring at and find an adorably handsome blond haired, blue eyed, boy leaning against a tree reading a book, "Oh..."

"Oh is right. He's cute, I'm straight and I have to admit that."

"Yeah..." you sigh, thinking about how you should go say hello to the guy, but can't leave because your boss is a hardass.

"Hey yn, he's moving."

"What? Where's he headed?"

"In here! Duh!" As Connie says this you realize that he's right.

The door dings as the cute blondie walks inside towards the counter.

"Hello, how may I help you?" you ask him smiling.

"Uhm, can I get a scoop of mint chocolate chip?"

"Yup! I'll get it right now," you respond with a bright smile, getting a cone and filling it with ice cream, "That'll be five bucks."

He hands you the change and takes hid cone, before he can leave you blurt out, "Are you free tonight?"

"Oh um yeah...why?" he asks with a slight furrow between his eyes.

"Well... I just thought that we could chill together..." you say awkwardly.

He stares at you in contemplation, then smiles brightly, and says, "It sounds like fun. When do you get off...?"

"Oh I'm yn and I get off in an hour."

"Okay, see you in an hour yn. I'm Armin by the way," he replies before walking out of the store with his ice cream.

Connie turns to you and smiles like the Cheshire cat. You blush at his stare.

"Aw you're so cute, yn!"

"Stop please, Connie. You're just gonna make me nervous."

"But making you nervous is fun," he pouts.

"Yeah, yeah" you roll your eyes.

***One Hour Later***

"Our shifts done!" Connie shouts happily.

"I know!"

"So can I hang with you and Armin?" he asks hope in his eyes.

"Uh no. I thought you had plans with Sasha?" you ask archly.

"Oh shiitake mushrooms! I forgot! She's gonna kill me," he groans.

"Well I'd wish you luck but, my date has arrived. Bye!" you reply, as ylu see Armin walking towards tha ice cream shop. You walk into the warm night towards him smiling.

"Hello, yn. What are we going to do?"

"Well I thought we'd go to the small carnival at the park, play a few games, eat some junk food, and watch some fireworks."

"Sounds great! Let's go!"

You grab his hand, take him to the carnival, play lots of games, where you win each other small teddy bears. The night ends when you and Armin are lying the grass staring at each other with the night sky above filled with different colored bursts of fireworks. You then lean foward and kiss him softly.
