*Seventh Grade*

You laid across the couch with your feet on your best friend Jean's lap.

"I'm gonna miss you," he said. You almost didn't notice his voice crack. Almost.

"I'm gonna miss you too," you said, your voice a little shaky. There was an awkward silence.

"Hey Jean?" He looked up at you.

"Yeah?" You took a deep breath.

"Nevermind," you muttered. You couldn't do it. Not now. Not at the last time you'd ever see him.

"No tell me."

"You'll think of me differently."

"What? No I won't we're best friends I'd never judge you." You winced a little. Yup. Best friends.

"Well, s-since I'm moving I guess it won't matter...Ever since we went to that dance together as friends...I've kinda...I sort of like you more than a friend," you admitted quietly. Jean noticed that all of a sudden your interest in the floor increased greatly.

"Wait...me?!" He asked, clearly puzzled.

"Yeah..." You whispered.

"Why me?"

"You're nice and good looking, and funny, and your personality is great, and just litrrally everything," you said. Your worries and doubts were soon washed away as Jean pushed your legs off his lap and scooted down close to you.

"Well if we're being honest about this stuff...I like you more than a friend too," he said, leaning on your shoulder. You held your breath.

"R-really?" Jean nodded.

"Isn't our timing fantastic?" You asked. He nodded again. The two of you spent the next hour or so talking about your feelings for each other and how they came to be. Soon enough, you glanced at your phone after it dinged. You sighed sadly.

"My mom's here," you said, your voice cracking with every word.

"Oh..." He said quietly, looking down. You stood up and straightened out your f/c dress. Jean walked you to the front door. You turned to him and smiled weakly. He pulled you into a tight embrace. The two of you stood there for what felt like forever. You swayed back and forth slightly. You took a deep breath and tried not to let the tears flow. There was a knock at the door. You both jumped. Your mom was standing there and waiting.

"Bye Jean," you said softly.

"Bye Y/n..." You turned and walked towards the door, looking back at the boy you were leaving behind one last time. And then, you were gone.

About a month later from Jean's PoV...

I laid in bed staring at the ceiling. I figured I was okay with Y/n moving. I figured I was alright now. I flipped over onto my stomache and groaned.

"Is this the kind of shit that's going to be keeping me up at night?" I asked out loud. What would've happened if I had kissed her when she told me how she really felt? Would I be feeling better? God I don't know...I miss being able to hug her and making her laugh and being able to attack her with tickles.

"Ugh." I closed my eyes and turned over again. Would anything have changed if I had just said, "Y/n, can I kiss you?" I wonder if her lips are soft...They probably are. Wait... I've been trying not to think about it too much. It's useless. I've come to the conclusion that yes. This is the kind of shit that's going to be keeping me up at night.

A very long time later...

I bounced in my seat excitedly. Our parents knew how close Y/n and I were (and still are) to each other, so after roughly three years we're finally getting to see each other again!

"Mom how much longer until we get there?" I asked. Apparently the plan was to meet each other at a halfway point between where we both lived.

"Calm down, Jean you're acting like a three year old," she responded sarcastically. It's been about two hours.

"You would too if you were going to see your best friend after three years," I said rolling my eyes. I leaned back in my seat and pulled out my phone. I texted her.

Jean: Are you as excited as I am?

Y/n: Obviously! We've been been driving for about an hour and a half now...

Jean: Us too... Hey are we gonna to the cliche airport reunion thing?

Y/n: Like the couples do? Like where the girl drops her suitcases and runs to the guy who picks her up and twirls her around?

Jean: Yeah exactly like that

Y/n: Yes this needs to happen

Jean: Then it's gonna happen (;

Y/n Ha ha okay

Jean: <3

Y/n: <3 <3

Y/n: Okay well I'll let you go do whatever horses do now

Jean: >.<

I turned my phone off and sunk down in my seat. I closed my eyes and tried to sleep.

I woke up a while later to the car slowing down.

"Jean we're here," Mom said. My eys popped opened even wider. I stared out the window and saw a familiar h/c girl sitting on a bench reading a book. I unbuckled my seat and opened the door.

"JEAN DON'T OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR'S STILL MOVING!" Mom yelled. I ignored her. There were more important things to worry about for the moment.

"Y/N!" I screamed. She looked up and threw her book behind her. Wow. She abandoned her book for me. We ran towards each other as fast as we could. I jumped up onto the curb as we collided with each other. Instead of the originally planned airport greeting, I fell backwards on impact.
Y/n fell on top of my laughing. Thankfully we were in the grass, so it didn't hurt too bad.

"Jean!" She exclaimed, sitting up and pulling me with her. I smiled like I never have before and pulled her into an even tighter hug then when we parted for the last time. I could hear faint sobs.

"Why are you crying?!" I asked, pulling away and looking into her e/c eyes.

"I'm just really excited to see you," she said. I decided to do what I wish I did over three years ago. I put my hands on either side of her face and slowly pulled her into a kiss, making sure she was okay with it. At first she gasped, but then she snaked her arms around my neck, melting into it. I placed my hands on her lower back and pulled her closer. I was losing my breath, so I reluctantly pulled away. Instead of her looking at me, Y/n burried her head into the crook of my neck.

"It look me so damn long to realize, but Jean Kirstein I love you," she said. I laughed a little and squeezed my arms around her.

"I love you too."

Okay yeah I almost started crying while writing this because of reasons and I think as my favorite oneshot this might be passing the drunk!reader×Erwin one...This is actually the longest oneshot I've written out of any oneshots I've ever written. I really like this one. Okay well see y'all next chapter!
