*Tac* *Tac* *Tac* *Tac*
Goes the sound of wooden swords that smack each other till they both or one breaks.

*THUD*

"OOF!"

"C'MON KRISTEN GET UP AND FIGHT ME LIKE UP MAN!" You told Jean giving him a good whopping Jean was literally out of breath and his eyebrows knitted together in anger as he got up. Dust was all over the back of his Jacket since you flipped him he had scratches all over him since you     'accidentally' punched him square in the Jaw giving him another bruise as he was scratched all over the place as he fell on gravel as blood and sweat mixed together he then got up regaining strength. He looked pretty bad you had to admit so you decided to stop he then got in his fighting stance and almost fell and you caught him in mid air before he even made impact with the floor.

"You wanna take a break?" You asked him.

"Sure..." He gasped out.

"But first we gotta get you to the infirmary." You then put Jean on his feet and put his arm around your shoulders while limping with his other leg as you placed one hand around his torso and the other on his hand for support.

10 minute time skip ~
You both finally reached the infirmary you placed Jean on the left bed and you helped him with his leg and the nice old nurse came in.

"What happed?" She asked amused by all the bruise he had.

"Me and him trained in hand to hand combat and it looks like I've won...?"
Her eyes went wide.

"You did this to him?"

"Yeah... And I feel pretty guilty for too." You said as a wave of guilt washed before you.

"You shouldn't have gone so hard on him, its hand to hand combat it's just training." She said.

"Well I didn't know that! you see, am new here and I just came in 3 weeks ago and I have this lack of strength that I can't control!" You related.

"Its ok, we all make mistakes and we learn from them and now you know you don't hurt them severely."
You then relax you shoulders and you sighed heavily relaxed by how her kind yet gentile voice soothed your ears and your breathing relaxed soon enough too.

"Thank you." You muttered

"No problem, now would you help with applying the alcohol?" She asked you sighed and walked over to the tray of alcohol and the other necessity that were kept there she then dabbed the cotton in the alcohol and gave you one  and she did the same with another cotton ball and then she started to apply the alcohol on jeans bruises and he hissed in pain, and every single hiss, grunt or even yelp he gave the more guilt you felt the nice old lady then stopped and cleaned all the alcohol that remained with a dry towel and wrapped a large bandage around his head.

"Thanks." Jean said thanking the old lady.

"Your very welcome." The she said patting Jeans head twice and walked out a few minutes later she came back but with a tray of food and you leave to let Jean to eat in peace you then arrive at the mess hall and you sat on a table across from Marco and you began to eat.

"Hey whats wrong? you aren't usually this quiet." Marco said.

"*sigh* I beat the pulp out of Jean today thinking it was actual fighting when it was hand to hand combat I feel so guilty." You said that last part quietly.

"Oh, don't feel so bad am sure it was just an accident, and am also sure you didn't mean it." He told you. That was just what you needed right now Marcos soothing words were so fucken comforting you swore.

"Thanks, Marco you always find a way to comfort me." You told him he smiled and you yelped at the sound of plates slamming next to you Eren on your right and Armin on your left and Mikasa sat next to Marco.

"How'd you do that?" Eren asked you.

"Do what?" You asked him.

"You beat the living shit out of Jean without even breaking a sweat! And it usually takes Mikasa 30 minutes to beat him up Just like you did!" He said happily You slammed your forehead on the table not caring if it left a bruise on your face those nice beautiful helpful Marco words faded and turned into pile of dog shit and this time instead of one wave a guilt it was two waves as Erens smile disappears Jean then came into the room looking all were to sit while everyone eats he then finds a seat next to Marco and sits down in front of you and you were too filled with guilt to even face him.

"Whats wrong with Y/n?" Jean asked.

"Apparently you and her trained together and she said she took it too seriously and almost beat the lights out of you. And now I think she feels guilty now... I think?" Marco said

"Your still on, about that I thought we went over this." Jean said.

"Oh, so that's why your upset!" Eren told you.

"I know! But I regret every scratch, bruise, and teeth I knocked out of you! Am sorry." You apologised weirdly disgusted on how the word sorry, rolled out of your rolled off of your tongue.

"I accept your apology, now stop whinnying."

"Ok." You said softly as you raises your head.

"What's with the bruise?" He asked while everybody looked at you and the medium sized bruise you had on the middle of your forehead.

"I got this when I slammed my head on the table thanks to Eren who made me feel even more guilty than bef-" before you could even finish you were interrupted by a military officer.

"CADETS GRAB YOUR GEAR WE'RE HEADING FAR BEYOND THE WALLS TO HUNT FOR MEAT!"

Your thoughts:

This is going to be fun I was built for hunting!
You smiled devilishly at the thought.
And Jean didn't trust that smile yours at all and neither did the others at your table.
