It's been a few weeks since the
incident occurred, and honestly, I'm still shocked by it all. I've never talked to him so much, or even been around him for so long, it felt so foreign, but at the same time I felt proud of myself. Of course, the fact we were almost caught wasn't exactly good, but I was so close to him, I could feel his heartbeat.. I want to be able to hold him like that again..
Today was combat training once again, and luckily for me this time Mikasa was my partner. I was slightly nervous, but excited to spend time with him. As I was searching for his familiar face. I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder, followed by a quiet, "I guess we're partners today."
I quickly turned around with a bright smile, silently praying I didn't see overly eager, and was surprised with a small smile in return.
"I guess, so, go easy on me will ya? I'd like to stay out of the infirmary!" I joked tightening my pony tail before taking a few steps back so we could start. "If I go easy on you I'll be the one in the infirmary." the ebony haired male replied as he shifted into his fighting stance. I laughed dropping down a bit and putting my hands in front of me waiting for him to make the first move.
"Ladies first." He said to me almost teasingly, causing me to smirk, "Alright, but your gonna regret that!" I said lunging forwards to throw a strong punch, watching as he was about to put his arms up to block. I quickly used the momentum of my swing to drop to the ground and throw my leg out, successfully tripping the male, but before he could fall he quickly regained his balance sending me a look of surprise. I cursed to myself, that move was supposed to send him to the ground, but of course I knew it wouldn't, he was far smarter than that. I quickly stood and backed up a bit waiting for the next move to be made, never once breaking eye contact with the male in front of me. Mikasa moved with amazing speed throwing a punch similar to the one I threw earlier, only this time he meant to make contact. I rose my arms in front of me to block it, only to be caught by surprise when he grabbed one of my arms and twisted it behind me.
"Well shit." I said more to myself than anyone else, but still succeeded in earning a small chuckle from the male. 'Think (f/n) think.. you can get outa this.. somehow..' I thought to myself gritting my teeth with determination. All of a sudden an idea hit me, I smirked deviously glad my back was towards him. I went limp as if a sign to give in, causing him to loosen his grip slightly almost in worry in case he really hurt me, before tensing my body and throwing myself backwards sending us both crashing to the ground. Upon impact, he completely released my arm allowing me to quickly spin and pin him down. I smiled triumphantly not even processing the fact I was currently straddling the male.
"I win~" Not noticing the pink that now dusted his face.
"Y-Ya.. I guess you did." He said slightly flustered from our rather.. intimate position. It took me a few seconds to register the fact I was on him, and upon realization I quickly got off blushing deeply at my previous actions. "A-Ah sorry.." I said offering a hand and pulling him up.
"It's fine.." He said still blushing, and giving me a small kind smile.
'Well today was eventful..' I thought to myself as the sun slowly set signalling training was over for the day,
'Annie's gonna flip when I tell her..'
