Reader-chan POV

I could hear rapid footsteps heading towards us, but I ignored them. I was concentrating on Eren right now.
I gently placed his head on the floor and placed my hands on top of his chest, over his heart. Then, I pumped at it before leaning down and placing my lips over his and breathing in (A/N: sorry if I mess up while describing this)
I pulled back and gave him a couple more chest compressions. I placed my ear over his mouth.
Nothing.
I grunted slightly and parted his mouth to breathe in.
"(Y/N)!! The doctor's on his way!!" shouted Mikasa beside me. I nodded but continued to give him mouth to mouth resuscitation until finally he coughed and inhaled sharply, his eyelids slowly fluttering open and his gaze locked onto mine.
"(Y/n)? What...h-happened?" he muttered before he passed it again. But this time, I could hear his faint breathing.
"Move it!! Doctor coming through!!" shouted a familiar elderly voice. I backed away from Eren and let the doc do his business.
"What happened?" asked Armin beside me. I didn't answer for a while, I was watching a couple people carry Eren into the infirmary.
Suddenly, I remembered a familiar scene that occurred a few years back.
But it happened to me.
I had been learning how to transform and control my titan form. But things went wrong. On my sixth attempt, I tried to get out of the muscle that held me in place inside the titan body but I couldn't. I then saw white spots covering my vision before passing out, and I could hear my heart beat slowing down.
The only thing I remember after that was waking up in the infirmary, where I was told that I had been close to dying.
The best explanation to this was too much fatigue. Eren probably tried too hard to transform. That's the best way I could put it.
"Its fatigue. His body is too tired and it tried too hard, therefore his heart was beginning to give out, as an after effect of transforming, because it takes a lot of energy," I responded as I looked at Eren's head hanging low as other soldiers quickly made their way inside HQ.
"How do you know?" asked Armin, his eyes meeting mine.
I glanced up at Erwin who looked away in discomfort before looking back down at Armin.
I shrugged. "It has happened to me before. The doctor is going to run some tests and will give him some shots and make him rest. Trust me, he's going to get well soon. He just needs to rest and relax," I offered a small smile.
"But Eren hasn't done anything extreme," Mikasa said, as she turned her head to look back at the entrance of the building. I opened my mouth to explain but Erwin beat me to it.
"His body doesn't only get tired from physical movements. It's possible he's been holding in too much emotion, causing him to lose sleep or something of the sorts. But for (y/n) it had been because she had overworked herself," sighed Erwin as he patted my shoulder.
"She had been practicing transforming and fighting techniques, while training with the ODM gear when she was not busy, until her body couldn't take it anymore, resulting in what just happened to Eren," Erwin finished with one last squeeze. "If you all don't mind, I will go check on him." He turned and walked away, with Levi on his heels.
"You can check too. I can see you're so eager." I smiled and Mikasa pretty much dragged Armin to the infirmary, leaving me with Hanji, Ciel and Sebastian.
"If ya don't mind, I'm going to run some tests," Hanji smiled evilly as she held a piece of flesh from Eren's body.
"You realize that it will dissolve into nothing right?" I stared at it dumbfounded.
"Exactly!!! So I need to go!!!" She screamed and ran to the lab. I smiled at turned to Ciel and Sebastian, who had become fascinated with a tree his face blank of emotions. Odd.
Ciel was looking between us and shrugged .
"I'm going to go eat something," he said and walked away toward the mess hall.
"Sebastian?" I asked.
"..."
I frowned and placed my hand on top of his gloved hands.
"You okay?" I searched his face as he turned his head to face me.
"I am perfectly fine, you mustn't worry," he sighed.
I crossed my arms over my chest and leaned on my left leg, staring at him incredulously.
"You're lying," I stated.
"I never-"
"Bullshit Sebastian," I rolled my eyes. "Are you mad? Did I do something wrong?"
"No."
"No? Are you serious? You weren't acting like this before Eren-" I froze when realization hit me in the face.
"You're jealous!!" I gasped. His crimson colored eyes widened a fraction.
"I do not get jealous-"
"You got jealous that I put my mouth on Eren's!!" I accused.
"Really Sebastian?" I asked in chastising tone.
Sebastian simply looked away, his gaze locking on the trees beside us. I huffed and brought my hand up to cup his chin and turn his head to face me.
"Are you mad at me?" I asked softly. He stayed quiet, but I could see the 'yes but no' message in his eyes.
"Y'know i was only trying to save a fellow cadet right?" I asked. He sighed and closed his eyes for a second before opening them to meet my gaze.
"I understand, and that was very courageous of you but I couldn't help and feel..."
I smirked a bit and leaned forward "jealous?" I finished for him. He nodded. I smiled and leaned even more towards him to hug him and laughed against his chest.
"Why do you laugh?" He asked me and ran his hand down my back. I shook my head and turned my head up, still leaning against him.
"I just didn't think that the great and amazing butler of Ciel Phantomhive would get jealous over simple mouth to mouth resuscitation." I laughed softly.
"Even the thought of it makes my blood boil." Sebastian muttered and tilted my chin up even more and leaned down.
I met him half way and pressed my lips against his in a slow and gentle kiss.
I pulled away slightly, to lean our foreheads against each other.
"I love you, Sebastian. Do you not get it? You're IT for me," I whispered and pecked his soft lips.
"My apologies for feeling jealous. But I felt that way because I love you too," he pulled away and kissed my forehead, making me lean against him and blush at his actions.
"Have I mentioned you look adorable when you blush?" He caressed my cheek with his gloved fingers. I looked down in embarrassment and smiled.
Sebastian chuckled and wrapped his arms against my waist and pulled me to him, resting his chin atop my head.
"Oh Sebastian?" I muttered against his shoulder.
"Hmm?"
"For the record, even if I wanted to purposely kiss Eren, Mikasa would have killed me before I even attempted to do so."
