A short songfic. Get You- Daniel Caesar.

Pretend this is like.. a few years after season 4, meaning that they're 21-22.

They stare at the sunset from their balcony. The sun was a blazing pink and the sky had vibrant colours. This was no ordinary sunset.

Both of their hands are on the railing, entwined.

Jean stares at his fiancé in awe while her face is smiling at the beautiful sight, then he runs his thumb over the ring he gave her.

("The view is beautiful." Jean, looking at Mikasa: "Yeah."
^ That was a sentence I was going to put but that is VERY cliché.)

"Who would've thought I'd get you?" He says softly, matching the tone with the warm sky.

"Huh? What do you mean?" She turns her head to him, her black locks swaying with the breeze.

"Out of all the guys that want you, you picked me. Why?" His eyebrows furrow.

"You make me feel different. Don't be insecure." She gives him a reassuring smile.

Jean tilts his head to the side and pouts. "You're too blunt, Mikasa. I wanted full detail." 🥺

She sighs in defeat. "My heart flutters at the thought of you, and holding your hand right now makes my cheeks red, see? You've been there for me when the boys back home wouldn't dare join the military. I love speaking to you, I love waking up beside you. I love you. Only you. Happy?"

"Yes, yes. Thanks for answering. Extra cuddles tonight." Jean laughs softly.

"Extra cuddles everyday for putting me through that." Mikasa's eyes turn darker.

"Okay, okay, no need to turn the switch on." (Ackerman)

Her eyes immediately turn back to a warm grey.

"Okay." She whispers.

They continue to stare at the view, until Mikasa's thoughts swarm her.

"Why do you love me?" She asks.

Jean gets flustered. "I'm sure you'd know that..."

Mikasa shakes her head and tilts her head with a smile, waiting for his response.

"Can I say the same thing you did?" He mutters.

"No. Make it original." She demands.

"You're pretty." He says bluntly and pretends she never asked.

"Look who's blunt now." Mikasa spat, squirming her hand out of Jean's grasp.

He didn't want to let go, so he held her hand tighter and took it off the railing. They face each other as his eyes soften.

"The first time I saw you 8 years ago, you walked past me and I swore the sun shone on your face even though it was night. You were so protective of Eren that I thought I'd never have a chance. I was a boy who fell in love with a girl that had her eyes on someone else. You're strong and beautiful, even with these scars..." He says softly while running his thumb over Mikasa's scar on her cheek.

"Happy anniversary."
