Almost, Always

Y/N L/N grew up in Shiganshina surrounded by familiar faces, late night laughs, and a friend group that always felt like home.

Except for him.

Eren Jaeger has always been the one person she can't quite figure out, and the on person who can never seem to figure her out either.

They argue like it's second nature. He says too much or not enough, she reacts before she thinks, and everything between them alway ends up slightly misaligned.

Almost understanding each other.

Almost getting it right.

Always ending up back in the same orbit anyways.

But things aren't how they used to be.

Y/N was the kind of girl who went out, stayed out late, and never thought twice about it.

Until she got into her dream school-The University of Paradis, one of the hardest schools to get into.

Now, everything is different.

She's more focused. Careful. Putting everything she has into her future-and refusing to let anything get in the way of it.

Even if that means leaving parts of herself behind.
