âtheyâre a transfer from the military police,â hitch stimulated the conversation imposed by a single name sasha mentioned
âwho wants to transfer if not choosing this sector in the first place?â
âi heard there was another reason they were part of the military police instead of the survey corps,â continued hitch, stretching out her legs in a deep lunge. âsomething about the certain abilities for protecting historia. donât ask how they got out that setup, thatâs all the info i got.â
ymir uncrossed their arms readying theirself for the run. âwho cares. are we starting or what?â
âweâre actually waiting on someone,â hitch responded, folding herself into another stretch
huffing, ymir looked into the distance at the mountains where the sun usually rose
âthey need to hurry the fuck up before the sun even starts breathing over the mountainsâ
âhitch why do you always provoke them?â mikasa interjected
sasha waved a hand in mikasaâs face. âshh. wait. letâs see which one gets choked out first.â
hitchâs narrowed eyes relaxed as she saw movement in her peripheral. raising a hand, they waved at the approaching figure
âxasan! good morning!â
ymirâs resting gaze had shifted slightly, inhale hitching then elongating
the reaction was caught by hitch as xasan moved toward the group, a wide smile on their face
âhello,â xasan greeted, ânice to meet you all, i am xasanâ
âhello ja-san. iâm sasha.â
she tried her best. xasan chuckled at the pronounciation
as much as ymir tried to fight it, that rumble in their throat as they laughed made goosebumps decorate ymirâs skin
while the group chatted the newcomer up, ymir examined them from a distance
keeping their astonishment low key, they let their gaze roam their broad physique, admiring the dark brown skin that glistened even with the lack of light
while ymir had attempted to look away, xasan caught their eye. accessories decorating the two front strands of their locs swayed as their head swiveled
regardless of ymirâs quietness, xasan had spoken to them
something glinted in their mouth, planted on their tongue
âare you chewing a piece of metal?â sasha asked, moving into xasanâs personal space as she squinted at their mouth
mikasaâs hand reached out and gripped the back of sashaâs shirt, yanking their body out of xasanâs face
xasan rolled out their tongue, displaying the metal stud piercing.
âcool,â sasha marveled.
ymirâstill reeling from the interactionâchanneled their embarrassment into an attitude, eager to distract theirself from the entirety of this individual
âyou can look at it all you want later. letâs start already.â
hitch began, âdonât be rude-â
âtheyâre right,â xasanâs eyes drifted towards ymir as they moved toward them. âthe sun should be peeking over the hills soon.â
the group agreed with enthusiasm
ymir would be like iâŠi think like that too. kiss me maybe?
nonchalant niggas falling for their opposites quick as hell âąïž
meals turned into speculating opportunities
after being served their food, ymir would scour the room for the familiar golden hair accessories that decorated xasanâs short dreads, sitting on the opposite side of their own table to steal glances
though speculation was not only for ymir
hitch and sasha couldnât help to murmur to each other while ymir was distracted with an attempt to see what bogus mission explanation xasan was explaining so loud this time
there was irritation gnawing at their nerves. why?
maybe they were being too loudâno, the entire setting was bustling
perhaps they had no consideration for those around themâwrong, the entire table they were sitting at paid close attention to their words while they marveled shamelessly
then xasan--out of proximity and friendlinessâ placed a hang on the shoulder of the person sitting next to them, a firm grip shaking the individual as they continued the dramatics of the story
the twinge in ymirâs chest and the diversion of their prominent stare was an unspoken tell-all
peeking in front of them, their eyes met hitchâs glimmering orbs an understanding look on her face, while sashaâs folded lips hid their smile, snickers, and suggestive gestures
after swallowing a piece of bread and meat, sasha spoke, âso ymir, hitch and i were thinking about inviting ja-san to hang out with us from now on. theyâre really somethinâ else huh?â
ymir shrugged, contorting their face to give display of âwhy ask me, i wouldnât fucking knowâ
âwell are you okay with them being around? because itâs gonna happen a lot more now.â hitch out her elbows on the table, placing her head in the palm of her hand as she leaned closer across the table. âa lot more.â
âiâm okay with reaching down into your throats and taking out whatever keeps letting you talk,â ymir hissed, stabbing at their food
mikasa let out a snicker, covering their mouth in case food came out
hitch and sasha gave a subtle look to each other
âwhy the fuck are you all acting like this?â ymir couldnât even get a bite in, the mood of their friends making them uneasy
ymir flinched. âokay.â
so the group did exactly as promised and melded xasan into the group
the sum-up of the guys meeting them was an attempt to be friendly but failing
not showing interest in subtle advances by some of them, xasan punted them into the friend-zone, disregarding compliments
ymir would turn into a spirit of dark energy seething at how quick they closed in on xasan
when a sparring session was offered by eren after xasan explained the origin of their style, ymir rolled their eyes, scoffing loud enough for the rest of the group to hear
âsomethinâ the matter?â sasha blurted out
ymir saw the first move made by xasanâa deflection of erenâs punch with a hit to his bicep, making his face contort in confusion and pain, their left hand flew in for an uppercut, frantically blocked by erenâs opposing arm
xasanâs mouth was moving as they dodged and threw hits, talking to eren with a smile on their face
what the hell are they doing? eren furrowed his brows, trying to concentrate on their fluid movements. iâve never felt hits so heavy. what are their bones made out of, he thought, eyes darting around to guess where the next attack was instead of worrying about defense--he was exactly where xasan wanted him
âthe ending really got me,â they chuckled âi actually ended up having a breakdown and tore a tree from the groundâ
a multitude of kicks rained down on eren, xasanâs foot meeting the sides of his torso, arms, and legs
he tried to get a punch in, earning another deflection, a palm flying in towards his face and jutting his chin upwards.
âand the thing is i read it again right after i was done with it. maybe i do hate myselfâ
unbalanced, eren began stumbling backward until he fell on his ass, cheeks and tips of his ears reddening immediately
the group threw themselves into a fit of laughter
ymir on the hand was absolutely smitten
like they had the option to take this nigga out fully, but just played in his face
they liked the fact it didnât take much to show their strength other than the fact it was already wafting off of them with their very presence
ymir blinked theirself out of their trance seeing xasan jog back to them
not the group, directly to ymir
ymir thought they had done something wrong, body growing rigid with a light sweat following. chewing the inside of their cheek they kept a hard stare fighting not to look away
ymir would have never in their life dared to approach them first. the sheer essence of romantic rejection made them physically gag
they have literally no thoughts when xasan is in their proximity
instead of complimenting them ymir just says outta pocket things. not even meanâŠjust outta pocket
âyou shouldâve broken his face when you had the chance,â was the first thing to leave their mouth as xasan came up to them
the group erupted into another fit of laughter eavesdropping on the interaction
âi have the feeling there will be a rematch soon. i most definitely will beâ xasan grinned, still panting
that was all ymir could muster up, mouth agape with nothing leaving it
âwe should go for drinks later,â xasan offered, hands on their hips
ymir nodded absentmindedly, taking in the sweet musk that emanated from them.
âhello?â xasan waved in their face. âyou okay ymir?â
blood rushed to ymirâs cheeks as they heard their name spoken with xasanâs accent
and they wanted to hear it again and again until fate teared them apart
hitch came up to the two to help out. âthey would love to go. actuallyâthis just came to mindâwhy donât we make this a group outing? you seem to be mixing with the group well.â
âsounds good. i would love to poke around your personalities a bit moreâ their eyes didnât even leave ymir as they said the statement
hitch bit back a smile. âah yes. of course.â she nudged ymir and they were still unresponsive âumâŠymir will be there too.â
xasan brightened. âlet me know when weâre going? imma go wash upâ they gave ymirâs arm a departing gentle pat before jogging toward the dorms
the further xasan got, the more ymir unfroze
âwow,â sasha began, walking up with connie, jean and mikasa âhow was that for ya?â
âdo not let me do anything stupid tonightâ ymir grumbled
âhuh?â hitch cupped her ear
âif you see me about to do something i wouldnât normally do. stop me,â they explained further
âdefine âsomething you wouldnât doââ hitch probed, the devil on her shoulder rubbing its hands
ymir looked to her, silent
pursing her lips, hitch sighed and slumped her shoulders. âwhy would you do something stupid. itâs just xasan? our friendâ she was inducing a subtle confession
ymir bit their tongue, noticing everyoneâs stare
âforget i said thatâ ymir backed away from the group, needing time alone. âif youâre all going to be weird let me just not say anything at allâ
that night the group gathered in town, attending their favorite local tavern
ymir immediately saw the lack of xasanâs presence, looking around the sidewalk as they fiddled with their black long sleeve
âhitch should be coming with them in a bitâ a voice answered the thoughts in ymirâs head
ymir looked to mikasa, their face heating up
a couple minutes later, the two did approach the tavern, chatting
ymir looked at xasan for second before escaping and entering the tavern for a drink
their warning from earlier would begin to make sense
the loud setting of the tavern mixed with the numbness of the alcohol did little to block xasan out
to ymir, they were a being of light with an everlasting glow
also their eyes could actually never leave them
the dance floor was xasanâs, every variant of beat was met with ease, rhythmic rolls of their body attracting all the eyes of the building
one thing ymir could admire about xasan--among the countless other factors--was the fact that they lived as they should. no shame. what was on their mind was said and they knew no one could take that right from them. ymir didn't need to analyze and try to break them down like they did with everyone else.
xasanâs eyes were closed. they used their limbs to their advantage telling a story with their moves. the foundation and fluidity of the moves matched their hand to hand combat style
the gold decor in their hair created glimmering streaks as they spun and flipped around
they contorted their body easily, kicking a leg over in a back bend then going into a cartwheel
staring in awe, ymir nearly brought their hand together to clap with everyone else, meeting sashaâs anticipating eyes
though very buzzed, they could still tell what their friends were up to, stifling the action by just rubbing their hands together
ymir poured theirself another cup from the tableâs pitcher, downing it in one go
after a couple seconds, things became very different very quick
ymir was swaying slightly to the music, palms patting each other under the table
xasan even danced with a drink in their hand, chugging the liquid before slamming the cup on the table
they traveled over to the teamâs table hand reaching out for sasha who was giddy, ready to get on the floor already
the group cheered for the two, clapping louder as they galloped around the open space, faces beaming with grins, laughter following. they spun and waltzed across the floor, stomping along to the rhythm
jaw clenched, ymir stood, not waiting for their balance to catch up.
âiâll be backâ they zigzagged to the corridor
just waited in the restroom until the song was over and everyone applauded
they were too drunk to deal with a very gorgeous looking xasan dance with other people
would they get on the dance floor by theirself? absolutely not.
if they had the chance to be in the arms of xasan, being led by their movements, bodies pressed to each otherâs, would they accept the offer?
regardless of the answer, the sensation in ymirâs abdomen after the thought warped their mood entirely
groaning, they pushed the door open bumping into someone else
as soon as the scent hit them, ymir looked up at xasan, gulping down the large accumulation of spit in their mouth
they walked backwards allowing ymir out
âi was just looking for youâ xasan spoke with a slight slur, deep smooth tone made it even worse for ymir when laced with the alcohol
mind blank. no thoughts. just staring. ymir breathed in, skin warming
that piercing created thoughts ymir had no busy thinking about
âhowâs your night going so far?â they asked, leaning a shoulder onto the wall.
remember they resort to saying random shit
âitâs not my night,â they slurred âi donât own that shit.â
xasan sputtered out a laugh putting a hand on ymirâs shoulder
their touch ignited ymirâs body
âand there it is. just as i thought. there is a possibility for you to be cuter than you already areâ
ymir processed the statement. âare you talking about me being cute or you being cute? we can talk about you being cute that makes more sense. and itâs stuff we both think about, right?â
xasan diverted their gaze, chuckling softly âuh, yeah?â
when their eyes met again, xasanâs hand cupped ymirâs cheek, thumb brushing over the brown freckles
âi think about you, ymir.â
ymir cleared their throat. âiâŠwe are d-developing a good friendshi-â
âi think about you in a lot of different waysâ xasan spoke pointedly, thumb skimming ymirâs bottom lip. they stepped closer, leaning down a bit
âyouâre okay with me touching you?â
âyes,â that answer was so quick. ymir was that close to adding a âpleaseâ but bit the inside of their cheek
something in ymir snapped when xasanâs hand met the small of the back and pulled them in to their body, their warmth exchanging
âiâve been waiting be alone with you since i asked you out earlierâ
ymir closed their eyes, leaning into xasanâs hand on their cheek
they didnât notice the small kiss they placed on their palm until xasan commented how cute they were bringing them back down to earth
âdo not call me that shit.â
xasan rubbed along their spine, feigning a frown. âis that a challenge?â
ymir rolled their eyes, tensing when xasanâs hand gripped their jawânot harsh. guiding
âi would not do that if i were you,â they whispered, gaze burning into ymirâs
that tone made ymir an absolute mess
ymirâs thinking âhmm attitude equals this? what will being a brat give me?â
bc ymir is definitely of brat essence please pay attention
âgood thing you arenât then.â
xasan glanced at their lips, before saying, âletâs join the others before we get in trouble.â
ymir agreed not wanting to hear anything from the group. âiâll leave first.â
retracting their arms, ymir smoothed out their outfit, giving a small departing wave before walking back out into the main room
the noise unmuted as they separated from xasan
everyone looked to ymir as they sat down
mikasa smelled xasanâs unique fragrant all over them
âdid you see xasan on your way out? everyoneâs asking for them. even the bandâ hitch eyed ymirâs demeanor
ymir shrugged, pouring theirself another cup of beer
âgo check yourselfâ they downed the drink
another tier of drunkenness had been reached
hitch narrowed her eyes until xasan came through the entryway, attention landing on ymir. they waved to the table while ymir poured another cup trying not to blatantly ask for their touch again
âwhere have you been?â hitch asked. looking between the two
âi drunk. i piss. a wonderful cycle on a night like this,â was xasanâs response
ymir laughed looking at hitch. âidiotâ
âactually, ymir?â xasan placed their hands on the table
âcan you pour me a cup?â
ymir never poured anyone else beer but their own no matter how many times someone asked. and for as long as theyâve known each other that was still the case
so when they saw their friend grab a clean cup from the middle of the table and pour xasan a cup with no rebuttal. no backlash. no nothing. they knew
ymir was one to do anything for their romantic interest. no hesitation. sober or not
âthank youâ xasan took the drink with a sly smile
ymir raised their mug and hit it against xasanâs
simultaneous chug plus ymirâs heart eyes on their crush
after that drink it was all over for ymirâs memory
the next day, hungover, ymir kept to theirself in their bedroom until it was time for a meeting in the middle of the day
they just drank water and laid down in bed not remembering shit from the night before
when it was time for the meeting ymir rolled out of bed, stretching their body out with a guttural groan
âfuckâ they stood up, rolling their shoulders back âshit. fuck this.â
they stumbled around the bedroom, gathering clean clothes to wear
âymir! you up? we gotta go!â hitch yelled
ymir opened their door âshut the fuck upâ
hitch handed them a steaming cup of mint tea
grunting a âthanksâ ymir took the cup and walked out of the room
hitch stayed silent, clearly wanting to ask something but just throwing glances at ymir
ymir sighed, brushing strands of hair from their face âwhat the hell are you looking at me for? somethinâ on my face?â
âhowâd your night go?â she rushed out as they entered the room for the meeting
shrugging, ymir searched for the empty seats near their friends. âdonât remember much. didnât throw up so thatâs always a plus.â they narrowed their eyes as they sat down next to mikasa âand why are you asking me? with that tone?â
hitch raise her hands in innocence âjust asking. saw another side of you is allâ
mid-sip, ymir choked, coughing as quiet as they could while everyone settled in
the hell was that supposed to mean? they were supposed to be stopping them if they did something stupid not simply let it happen. but ymir shouldâve known better with their mischievous asses
now ymir was racking their brain to figure out what the fuck happened, hating the fact they were left in the dark concerning their own drunken actions
the meeting began and as it did that sweet musk wafted into ymirâs nose, thoughts scrambling more than before
then everything began to fall into place
the alluring scent, the touches, that fucking piercing...but what was spoken? what was said?
âi had a fun time dancing with you last night,â their voice whispered from behind ymir, lips brushing their ear
ymirâs mouth dropped open, eyes widening, as their skin reddened immensely
