Reader's POV

As graduation day approached, Mikasa found herself replaying the events of the dance in her mind over and over. The way Eren had looked at her, the way their hands had felt intertwined—it was all so vivid. But now, three days later, she hasn't managed to talk to him about it.

Each time she saw him at school, her heart raced, but the words seemed to get stuck in her throat. She wasn't sure how to bring it up, or if she even should. Would things change now that they had admitted their feelings? What if it complicated their friendship?

Mikasa sighed as she sat in her last class of the day, glancing over at Eren, who was animatedly discussing plans with Armin. He seemed so carefree, laughing and joking, while she felt a whirlwind of emotions swirling inside her.

After class, Mikasa gathered her things and waited for Eren by the door, heart pounding. Armin walked out, giving her a knowing smile before leaving.

"Mikasa!" Eren called, spotting her. "Hey! Are you ready for graduation?"

"Yeah," she replied, forcing a smile, but the weight of her thoughts hung heavy. "Can we talk for a minute?"

Eren's expression shifted to one of curiosity. "Sure! What's up?"

They stepped outside, the warm sun hitting them as they walked a little away from the bustling hallways. Mikasa took a deep breath, trying to find the right words. "About the dance... I've been thinking a lot."

~Flashback~

Eren and Mikasa snuck out of the dance early to share a moment alone together.

The cool night air was filled with the gentle rustle of cherry blossom petals as they drifted down around Eren and Mikasa. The music from the dance faded into the background, leaving only the soft sounds of the evening and the steady rhythm of their hearts.

Under the canopy of blossoms, the moonlight cast a silver glow, illuminating the moment that felt almost magical. Eren's hand gently brushed against Mikasa's cheek, his touch sending a shiver of warmth through her. She looked up at him, her heart racing, as they shared a moment of silence, everything else forgotten.

Eren's gaze was intense, filled with a mix of emotions, nervousness, excitement, and something deeper that had been building between them for so long. Mikasa felt her breath hitch as he leaned closer, their foreheads almost touching.

As she closed her eyes, she surrendered to the moment, feeling a mix of anticipation and tenderness. Eren's lips met hers softly, and time seemed to stand still. It was a kiss that held all the promise of what was to come, a blending of their friendship and the new feelings they had finally acknowledged.

The world around them faded away, leaving just the two of them under the stars, surrounded by the delicate blossoms that mirrored the beauty of their connection. Mikasa melted into the kiss, feeling a rush of warmth and joy that was unlike anything she had ever experienced.

When they finally pulled away, their foreheads still touching, they both opened their eyes and shared a breathless smile. In that moment, it was clear: they had crossed a threshold into something new and exciting.

"Wow," Eren said softly, his voice barely above a whisper.

Mikasa chuckled, her cheeks flushing. "Yeah... wow."

As they stood there, the petals continued to fall around them, creating a picturesque scene that felt like a promise of the future, a future they were ready to explore together.
