DYNAMIC: Strangers to lovers

~~~

You let out a sigh of relief as you sat down on the grass next to your squad mates. You had all just gotten done with the daily cleanings chores the Levi had you all do, and you were exhausted.

You sat down between Armin and Eren, laying down on your back as you stretched your arms behind your head, arching your back as you let out a groan.

You felt someone kick your foot, causing you to look at who did it.

Jean looked down at you, his face covered in a light layer of sweat.

"Oi, stop practicing your arching skills." He tossed you a canteen of water "here, need to stay hydrated."

You stuck your middle finger up at him as you chugged the water, pouring some of it on your face as well since it was boiling out.

You blew a raspberry out of your mouth as you played back down, staring up at the sky.

Armin and Eren layed down next to you, staring up at the sky as well.

You turned to Eren. "Where's Mikasa?" You asked.

Eren shrugged. "I think she's still cleaning up the mess hall with Sasha. Captain Levi is serious about the cleaning in there."

You patted Eren's head next to you, still staring at the clouds.

"That hair you've got going makes you kinda look like Ymir, y'know?" You removed your hand from his head, putting both of your arms under your head.

Eren shrugged "I'm growing it out." He said.

You chuckled "soon enough you'll be able to pull it up in a bun or something." You turned to Armin "it's kinda a shame you cut yours, I miss pulling it out of your face."

Armin's cheeks turned a pink color and he smiled at you.

"Commander Hange has new uniforms being made. They said that having long hair wouldn't be good for it, since it could get caught. I think Mikasa is gonna cut her hair, too." He said.

The sound of footsteps alerted you and your friends, making you, Armin, and Eren sit up off of the grass.

"Hey, brats! Off of the ground, you just cleaned, and now you're filthy" you all saw captain Levi, followed by Hange, Sasha, and Mikasa, walking towards you.

You, Jean, Eren, Armin, and Connie all stood and saluted. 

Hange motioned for all of you to drop your salutes, holding a small stack of papers.

"If all of you could come with me, that'd be great. A meeting with the Anti-Marleyan Volunteers has been called, and we all need to attend." Hange said, their voice holding an authoritative tone.

Jean tilted his head to the side "what about Eren? I thought he wasn't allowed to be around that tall lady, or any of them for that matter."

You shoved your hands into the pockets of your trousers, leaning on your right leg as you looked over at Jean.

"Yelena." You said dryly.

Jean turned to you, an eyebrow raised "huh?".

"The tall lady. Her name is Yelena." 

Jean looked at you and let out a scoff "ok? Whatever." He turned back to Hange "anyways, about Eren?".

Hange nodded "we've got it covered. As long as they make no advancements to talk to him, he'll be allowed in. Now, c'mon." They gestured all of you to follow them and levi.

Following, you all made a quick stop to grab your Survey Corps coats, then headed to the meeting.

Lead by Levi and Hange, then followed by you, Jean, Armin, Connie, Mikasa, Sasha, and Eren, you all walked into the large meeting room, the Volunteers sat at the rather lengthy table on one side, the familiar blonde woman sat in the middle of them.

Your eyes lingered on her, although she wasn't looking at you.

She was hot, you couldn't deny that. But you felt bad since everyone didn't trust her, or the other Volunteers. You tried to keep your attraction to her to yourself. Although, whenever she was in the room, your eyes couldn't help but wander.

She must've felt your gaze, because her dark eyes shifted to you, but you immediately looked away, taking a seat next to Mikasa at the table.

Thus, the meeting began. The Volunteers wanted access to the weaponry in order to upgrade them. Seeing as the ones used now were 'old fasioned' as they put it, and weren't very suited for an upcoming war.

Although Hange had said all of you were to attend, you didn't understand the point of being there if nothing was said to you. Though, you supposed the information was useful.

Once the meeting was over, you all stood up from your seats. Hange and Yelena shaking hands over the table quickly before departing.

As you were all leaving, you let your eyes fall on the blonde again, only to find her eyes on you, the corner of her lips twitching up the slightest bit as she looked at you up and down.

You looked away, pulling your coat closer to your body as if it were a security blanket.

Your legs felt weak, like you could collapse right there in front of everyone. In front of her.

But, you didn't. Instead, you took a deep breath and continued walking.

~~~

That night, you sat in your shared bedroom with Sasha, seated at the desk in there reading a book, wearing a pair of dark brown pants with a grey shirt, the Scouts symbol imprinted on a pocket on your left breast.

Sasha was laying on her bed, eating a potato she had stolen from the kitchen. That brought back memories.

Sasha turned on her side, facing you with her mouth full of starch.

"What was up with you at the meeting today? You were all fidgety." She said, swallowing the food that was in her mouth and wiping the crumbs off her face.

You turned to her, placing your book down with a confused look on your face.

"What do you mean?" You asked.

"You kept spacing out and shifting in your seat. You also tapped your fingers on your chair until Mikasa told you to stop." She sat up, light brown eyes looking at you with curiosity.

You felt your face flush as you looked away from her. You had been caught. Well, somewhat.

Sasha suddenly laughed out loud "you were distracted by someone, weren't you?!" She smiled wide and poked your shoulders.

"Sooo~" Sasha teased "who is it?"

You turned away from her "no one, because I wasn't distracted." You crossed your arms over your chest.

Sasha shook your shoulders "liar! There has to be someone! You did the same thing when you had a crush on Armin!".

You looked at her in shock "how did you know about that?!".

She snickered "you weren't exactly hiding it very well, just like now. So, tell me who it is!".

You pouted "fine, but you can't tell anyone else..."

Sasha nodded eagerly, sitting on her bed with her legs crossed, practically bouncing.

You sighed "it's Yelena..." You muttered.

Your friends eyes widened "you mean the tall, scary, Marleyan woman?".

You nodded sheepishly.

Sasha gasped "is that why you corrected Jean today about her name?".

You nodded again.

The brunette grinned from ear to ear "well then you should tell her!".

You stiffened and turned to her, looking at her as if she were crazy. "I can't do that! I don't even know if she swings that way! Plus, what if I embarrass myself?! I'll never be able to live it down!".

Sasha got up from her bed and patted your shoulder "well, you never know if you don't try".

You sighed and stood up from your chair, and then headed to the door. 

"I think I'm go for a walk in the halls for a bit. I'll be back later." Before Sasha could get a word in, you walked out the door.

The halls were relatively bare, save for a guard every now and then, though they didn't ask why you were out of your room. You assumed it was because they were too tired to do so.

Walking down an empty corridor, you froze in your spot at the sight of a tall person standing under one of the torches, leaning against the wall, cleaning what looked to be a gun.

You recognized the blonde hair and hooded black eyes that looked rather uninterested at what she was currently doing. Maybe she was tired, you could definitely see the eye bags she had from where you were standing.

Yelena seemed to notice your presence, lifting her head ever so slightly to look at you, as well as being careful of the torch so she wouldn't smack her head against it.

You stiffened as she now was standing up to her full height, towering over you like a Titan.

She walked towards you, the glow of the torches in the hall highlighting her features with a soft orange light that brought out her cheek bones and eyes.

She stopped a few inches away from you, the height difference between the two of you even more apparent, as you noticed you stood at her chest.

You looked up at her, gulping. Her gaze was intimidating, almost scary.

Yelena looked you up and down once again, like she had done earlier.

You felt so small under her eyes, pun intended.

The blonde let out a small, breathy laugh out of her nose at your tense body.

"You afraid I'll shoot you or something?" She asked, leaning against the wall.

You gulped again, shaking your head. Your mind was going a mile a minute, you could barely focus on your own thoughts.

She looked at you up and down again before pushing herself off of the wall. "I can tell you're nervous, but not for the reason that I was thinking. Your pupils are dilating, and you're practically sweating even though this hallway is cold. "

You let out a shaky breath and turned your head away from her oh so inviting but intimidating gaze, only for her to grab your chin with her thumb and pointer finger, and made you look at her again.

You felt heat rise into your cheeks as her thumb then ran across your bottom lip.

"I saw you looking at me after the meeting earlier. In fact, I've seen you look at me alot of times these last few months, and not in the way the others look at me. I know you want me." Her deep voice was dripping with confidence, as if she knew everything, and she was right.

You stared at her with wide eyes, trying to process what she said.

She raised an eyebrow "well? Am I right?".

You hesitated, but nodded anyway.

Her grip on your chin tightened, her eyes going from teasing to stern "I want to hear you say it."

You let out a small whimper, one that made her smirk.

"I...I want you..." You said quietly.

"That's all I needed to hear." She said, leaning down ever so slightly.

Your eyebrows creased "what?".

She leaned down to where her lips were inches from your ear.

"I want you, too sweetheart."

With that, she pressed her cold lips against yours.

I know the ending was sucky, but I finished writing this at like 6 in the morning.
