Mikasa

My eyes slowly opened with the feel of someone shaking my elbow. "H-Hey! Wake up!" I shot open my eyes realizing that some total stranger was touching me and I quickly spun around to discover a boy with light brown hair that was cut at the bottom, brown eyes, and his face was kinda like a horse.

"H-Hi." He smiled shyly as his cheeks flushed. "Hello." I smiled back waving my hand slightly.

"Sorry for waking you up, for a second it looked like you weren't breathing!" He laughed as I laughed at his explanation.

"It's cool, I'm Mikasa." I put my hand out for him to shake.
"I'm Jean." He shook my hand. His hand stayed locked with mine as he gazed into my grey eyes.

I felt my face flush and found this silence a bit awkward, "U-Uh.." I said as I looked to the side to break the awkwardness he created.

  "O-Oh, sorry." His hand slipped from mine and scratched the back of his head. I smiled softly to show that everything was okay, "It's no worries."

  He nodded and sat back in his seat as we both looked out the window in silence. "H-Hey-"

"All to Maria City." The bus speaker boomed as I jumped up and gathered my belongings. "It was nice to meet you Jean." I said hoisting my bag on the seat and firmly grabbing the handle and walking out.

   "M-Mikasa!" Just before I could have my final step out of the bus, Jean stood at the doorway of the bus resting one hand on the frame.

  "Yeah?" I turned my head, "I-I hope to see you again." He held out his hand. I smiled at his sweet gesture, I nodded and shook his hand, "Hope to see ya again, farewell Jean."

  Our hands slowly released as I stepped onto the dirt path, he nodded at the bus driver that was waiting for us to finish and he nodded his head.

  The doors slowly closed making a small burst of air blow and the bus slowly drove forward as he waved goodbye.

  I smiled waving back and sat on the stainless steel bench with a bus sign planted next to it. The sky was already purple and the orange was slowly fading. I bounced my feet in nervousness, this was the very first time I was going to meet her. My aunt.

  I let out a sigh and after a few minutes a black car pulled up and a tall girl with short strawberry blonde hair and a small braid was clipped on the side of her head, pale skin, light brown eyes, and freckles were across the bridge of her nose. She wore a light purple sleeves shirt with blue jeans and black flats.

I looked at her in slight awe, she was amazing...

She flashed me a bright smile and held one hand up waving, "Hi! You must be Mikasa." She giggled. I nodded and smiled, walking towards her and held my hand out for her to shake. But instead she embraced me with a tight hug and said, "I'm so glad to be welcomed into your family."

I smiled and hugged back tight, "Welcome to the family."

Petra slowly pulled in the curb, "I hope you will find this place home fitting." She said as she climbed out of her car and opened the trunk to get my bag.

I couldn't just let her grab my bag! She isn't a maid! I wanted to make a good first impression. I climbed out of the car closing the door behind me and discovered a tall brunette boy with emerald green eyes.
