AOT BOYS REACTING TO YOU HOLDING ALL YOUR THINGS WITH ONE HAND
amihan's note; did someone do this already? if yes pls let me know to give them credit. might do it to other fandom if this doesn't flop :)) i remember seeing this picture before and recently thought of it again, happy reading!
mentioned charas; eren jaeger, levi ackerman -i can't think of anyone else 😭🙏-
-eren jaeger
aggressive compliments
tries doing it too
miserably fails
drops all his things
"holy fucking shit babe?!" he looks at you with his jaw dropping on the floor, his eyes fixated on your hand. you giggle, showcasing your hand that's full of things, "it's easier than it looks really," you say with a shrug.
"let me let me!" his words full of excitement while making grabby hands, you hand him your things and he begins piling them up. mind you, he have bigger hands but as soon as he got all the things it's met with the floor instead of his fingers.
his brows furrowing in confusion, you gasp, both in not believing what just happened and in shock. "eren! my phone!!!" you exclaim, bending down to check on your phone, upon inspecting you see a small crack.
you just sigh and look up at him with a pout, he gives you an apologetic smile, "on the bright side, that's an awesome talent you got!" he tries brightening the mood, you roll your eyes at him laughing a little.
-levi ackerman
just shocked in general to be honest
did a double take to make sure he wasn't imagining it
stares at your hand longer than he should
tho, i can see him doing it with ease
"want me to carry some of your things?" he asks while patting his pockets to check if he forgot anything after locking the car, he looks at you after not getting an answer.
"nah, i got it" you intertwine your fingers with his, walking towards the entrance of the mall. his eyes looks down at your hands and sees how you're holding many things at once, "what..?" he mumbles.
"hold up your hand for me," you look at him and hold up your joined hands, he stops himself from rolling his eyes, "the other one." your mouth forms an 'oh,' he takes a look closer, confirming that you're indeed holding many things in one hand.
he nods a little and offers his hand, "i told you, i got it already." he blinks at you before moving his fingers, insisting on holding them. you chuckle and roll your eyes at him, "you know it's easy to say, 'that's cool, i wanna try too.'"
nevertheless, you give him your things and he easily carries them in one hand. "oh that's surprisingly easy," he comments, not giving your things back. "also easy to say, 'i don't want you carrying your things, let me'" you tease him, squeezing his hand. he just clicks his tongue and looks anywhere but you.
amihan's note: fuck it i'm doing other aot charas too 😤 this will have many parts grrr i enjoyed imagining their different reactions, so here you go. happy reading!
mentioned charas; eren jaeger, jean kirstein, connie springer, porco galliard, reiner braun
-eren jaeger
you stepped in your shared bedroom without saying a word, not that he noticed anyway. he was busy with his workout, music blaring from his pocket-sized speakers. you stopped beside him, making your presence known, bending down you push the power off button on his speakers.
just as he’s about to complain, your phone starts blasting it’s own music. the countdown is already done as you set the phone on the table, fixing it to fit him in frame. he stands up, sweat running down his torso. you look at him with all seriousness in your face, your eyes trailing up and down his body before giving a thumbs up, “nice” you quickly commented.
eren smirked proudly, “i know” you then started clapping making him confused. “dance for me baby” that was all it took for eren to move. this boy got moves, no doubt about it. i feel like he will probably try to copy the clips he saw, prepare for some hot moves. oh he definitely will do the dolphin dive/floor grind.
-jean kirstein
jean was laying down on the couch with his eyes closed, arm covering them while you were laying on top of him, his other hand lazily draped over your frame. you're scrolling on your phone tiktok opened, you stopped on a particular video wherein they hype their significant other to dance to the song.
you took interest in the video and wonder what jean would do, you glance up at him seeing he's still half asleep. you poke his cheek trying to see if he'll wake up, he just grunts as a response not really giving you attention. this made you pout and stood up, his arm falling to his side.
you set up the phone by the television and saw that it captured both of you perfectly, once the timer runs out. you pulled him up which, surprisingly, he obliged without complaining. he looked at you in confusion, rubbing his eyes.
you stand aside putting him in the center of the frame. you begin hyping him up, trying to make him dance. it took a few seconds for him to process and start showing his moves.
i swear this fucker he started hip thrusting and grinding the floor the moment he realized, you actually posted the video and it garnered a lot of views. you bet there's lots of 'how to be air' and 'how to be a floor' comments.
-connie springer
you were currently out on a date, a picnic date that turned out to be disastrous.. well i expect nothing more from connie but hey! you are having fun and that’s all that matters, the day was filled with laughter. you leaned on his shoulder, the two of you sitting down already done with the food he packed.
you were scrolling through your phone while he watched beside you, cheek resting against the top of your head. suddenly you come across a video where their partner hype the other and see what they would do. like reading your mind, connie chuckles “alright, let’s do this” he gently pushed you aside, confidently standing up.
he offered you a hand and off you went setting up your phone, the countdown was down to three and you turned around facing him making sure you’re not blocking the frame. connie bops his head to the beat, big smile on his face. he looks at you for a moment before pointing at the camera.
he then busted out his moves, he shamelessly threw it back in public please people were staring when i say threw it back, i really meant it. "get it babe!!" you called out to him, encouraging him to continue. having his antics rubbed on you gave you confidence to come running behind him and catch his movements. he definitely exaggerated the movements and did more slutty moves once you did.
-porco galliard
you rushed to your shared room, the countdown already starting. you set your phone on the table, the countdown already in five seconds. through all your rushed actions, porco just sat there with a very confused expression.
as porco was about to ask what you were doing, you dragged him up and made him stand in the middle of the frame. you peaked from behind him and see that the countdown is done, his eyes following your every movement.
you went out of frame shaking your hips a little, “come on show me your moves, love” porco blushed a little, “i’m shy” he whispered to you, slowly coming closer to you. you shake your index finger at him, “uh uh baby, you gotta show me what those hips do” you giggle while pointing at his hips.
your hand found its way on his hips swaying them side to side, in which he complied. “see~ you got this” you remove your hands from him and wink, “fine” he rolls his eyes, his lips forming a smile. “you better watch closely” he then turned and saw that the video’s coming to an end.
his moves went hard, like he gave his all to it. it was mesmerizing to watch, your mouth hanging open. after snapping out of it, you complained to him how it didn't fit the video in time, “i can do it again,” he wrapped his arms around you, leaning to whisper in your ear, “but i want no cameras involved.”
-reiner braun
you've already set up your phone on top of the table when you came up to him and took both of his hands. he looked up to you and raised a brow, "anything i can help you with, angel?" you didn't answer his question, tugging his hands signalling him to stand up.
as soon as he did, you dragged him to where your phone was, you pushed the button to start recording. reiner, like the good boyfriend he is, stood where you left him. he innocently followed every movement you made, looking like a lost puppy.
when you heard the music from your phone, you smiled at him before hyping him up. "dance for me darling" you playfully gave him a lil' dancy dance to encourage him. now, don't get reiner wrong, he's usually the hypeman for his friends but he doesn't know how to react when it's done to him.
with small, shy, and timid movements, he did just as you wanted. his face red in embarrassment, you can't help but giggle joining on dancing with him to comfort him. he buried his face on the crook of your neck mumbling against your skin, "i don't know how to dance" he shyly admitted, you stroke his hair, "it's okay, i'm sorry for making you do so" you leave a kiss on his temple, temporarily forgetting about your phone that was still recording for the rest of its seconds.
amihan’s note: i also dunno what happened to his id jdbskdn the fight is kinda meh but uhhh… kinda like this, not the way i portray it tho. more how the scene play-out(?) happy reading!
masterlist: 300 milestone
eren + enemies to lovers + "shut up, she’s mine"
eren is pining on reader (she/her)
“armin!” eren’s voice booms inside the almost empty classroom, the boy in question flinches and looks for his best friend. “what?” the blond’s eyes full of panic, “i messed up,” he says and rests his hand on top of his shoulders.
“messed up with what? did you get detention again?” his friend sighs in disappointment, “no,” eren scoffs and crosses his arms. “then what?” armin leans back on his table and stares at his friend.
“i told her i hate her instead of confessing,” he whines and looks at armin with saddened eyes. “why can’t you be normal for once,” the blonde says while snickering, “don’t laugh at my misery!”
you’re peacefully doing your homework which you forgot to do at home and today’s the deadline when eren decided that it’s the right time to once again, annoy you. you know, because according to him, his day is never complete if he doesn’t.
“y/n, hey psst!” eren keeps pestering you, however, you didn't give him even a quick glance. he pokes your side, desperate for your attention, “go away, eren. i’m trying to finish this,” you mutter, eyes glued on your paper.
surprisingly, he obliged… for a few seconds. “she said she has to finish that, leave her alone,” a classmate, who you don’t talk much to, speaks up to the boy.
you sigh and gesture to them, “finally someone with a brain,” you say without looking up.
eren raises a brow, amused by your classmate, he looks up at them, a smug smile present on his face, “who do you think you are?” your classmate shrugs, “a person with a brain, apparently.”
the boy scoffs, “go away, this is none of your business.” you just sigh, used to this situation, it’s not like it’ll turn into a fist-fight. you’re on your last question when the tension seemed to have sky-rocketed.
for the first time, ever since eren entered the scene, you look up to see him chest to chest with your classmate. both of them looking down on each other, “hey,” you utter out, leaving your homework behind.
you stand up in between them, pulling them apart from each other. “what are you? a bunch of children? you’re in high school now!” you furrow your brows while looking at the two of them before glaring at eren.
“and you, what the hell do you think you are doing?” you ask, confused by his actions for the past days. “yeah, it’s not like you're the boyfriend or something,” your classmate says with a scoff. eren snarls at them, "shut up, she’s mine."
you can’t help but scoff at his remark, “i’m sorry?” you say while crossing your arms, eren is quick to mask his shocked reaction. he mirrors you, crossing his arms also, “i like you, you got a problem with that?”
your eyes narrow on him, “...eren, what?” you hear a scoff from behind you, “don’t trust him, that’s probably one of his sick plays again” your classmate comments which you nod your head to.
“you’re trusting them more my words?” eren says while pointing at your classmate, you nod without hesitation.
“and you really think i’ll believe you more than anyone?” you snicker, the boy’s gaze fleets down on the floor, whispering, “well.. yeah.”
“seriously, what’s with you, eren?” you sigh while rubbing your forehead, armin rushes to where the three of you stand, “what’s happening?” his words repeating, looking at a dejected eren. “he was just about to start a fight while i was peacefully doing my homework.”
armin smiles at you, sympathy written all over it. “would you like to copy mine? i’m really sorry,” you shake your head, smiling sweetly to him, “no, i’m actually almost done, thank you though,” the blond nods and looks at his friend.
as armin drags eren out of the scene, his words echo in your head, “i like you,” your brows furrows in confusion, ‘did he mean that?’ even with him not anywhere near you, he never fails to bother and invade your mind.
you groan going back to your homework, not sparing your classmate a glance as you furiously answer the remaining question.
weeks passed since the disastrous confession, you groan into your hand, rubbing your face. head is still full of eren despite not seeing him, “ugh, i hate you so much,” you mutter.
eren clears his throat making you look up to him. “i hope that wasn’t meant for me,” you glare up to him, “it is meant for you asshole.”
“sorry..?” the boy holds his hands up in defeat. you roll your eyes at him, “what do you want?” eren’s face immediately changes, his aura nothing but serious.
you raise a brow at this, “please eren, i’m too tired for this,” you say while slumping back on your seat. “of what?” he rests his hands on top of your table.
you bring a hand up to gesture at him, “all of this. so if you can, please be quick so this can be over with.”
eren stares at you as you stare back at him, you’re about to say something when his next words makes your breath hitch, “what i said back there was nothing but the truth.”
eren observes as your eyes calculate his every move, “no, that’s not right.”
he sighs, getting a quick glimpse of armin who’s looking at him sternly. eren gulps and looks back at you, “i like you, y/n.” he reaches out for your hand, caging them with his own.
“it’s always been you,” slowly, he brings up your hand and leaves a kiss on the back of them.
“i need time, eren” you say while retreating your hand back. you sigh, looking into his eyes, “that’s if you’re committed and will be willing to wait,” your tone unsure, uneasy with the boy in front of you.
you asked for time? he did that without batting an eye. his determination and desire to proudly call you as his significant other is what pulled him through those months.
the long wait is worth it because now he have you in his arms, “i love you” you mumble to his chest.
on top of that, the first l-word was dropped by you, “i love you more, babe” he kisses your forehead.
eren jaeger couldn’t be any happier, this is everything he could ask for; to call you his and to have you by his side.
amihan's note: another shitpost, i'm sorry 🙏😭 happy reading!
-fushiguro megumi
he have a to do list in his mind but forgets it right when he's ready to do it. he gets completely side-tracked then after a few moments he realizes what he was supposed to do, a complete opposite of what's he's currently doing.
-okkotsu yuta
stares off to space out of nowhere. let's say you two are having a conversation then the next thing he knows, your voice is nothing but a white noise while his mind is completely blank. don't worry he'll snap out of it after a few seconds. apologizes for it and makes you repeat what you were saying, listening intently this time.
-hange zoe
they share too much or share too little. there would be times where she would be talking non-stop when a certain topic is up on the table. other times they would be too quiet when a topic- even if it's in her interest, is the talk of the group. honestly, it all depends on hange's mood.
-sugawara koushi
he's either a fast replier or a very slow one. one would think that koushi is a fast replier since he's chaotic but honestly, i feel like he gets a sudden boost of energy whenever he's in a good mood; that would be the only time where he replies fast, like millisecond fast reply.
-mitsuya takashi
he rests his legs on top of his friend's legs when sitting down. i don't know if you can imagine it but when he's comfortable and the group is having a good talk, you know like the long ones where the conversation keeps flowing? expect him to lay back on the arms of the couch and gently place his legs on top of his friend's lap.
-sanzu haruchiyo
when he does something or gets hurt, he acts like nothing happened. one time he was outside minding his business while scrolling through his phone until he's called inside by manjiro. everything is going great until he stands up and his phone suddenly slips from his hand causing it to come contact with the ground, the bonten members just laughs at him as he picks it back up and continues scrolling like nothing happened.
hi, mimi !! for the game can i ask for jean from aot :>
hdodndk there's the aot req *dramatic claps* here u go babe <33
- hopeless romantic
jean is a hopeless romantic guy and the group knows about it. in fact, this news is nothing new to you. he's dedicated with the things he do especially when it comes to love.
"y/n!" jean calls out, you open your window and see him with his goofy smile, an acoustic guitar sitting comfortably in his hands. the setting is very familiar for you. you lean against the window making yourself comfortable.
"this one's for you," jean clears his throat leaning towards the mic, he got the full set-up. his voice shaky at first but as the song builds up to its chorus, his voice transitions to low and charming.
that's when it clicked for you, this is exactly what you have told him a long time ago. "..a dream that will never come true" you sigh while kicking a random stone. "dreams always comes true, y/n" he smiles at you fondly.
the last strum of the guitar officially ends the song, you stare at him with pure adoration in your eyes. "jean..." you inhale deeply before giving him your brightest smile, "the answer's yes."
amihan’s note: might revamp this when i come back, kinda putting out half-assed at this point so i can somehow satisfy myself before taking a break, happy reading!
tagging; @dora-the-grownup sorry for the wait and the way i didn't put much effort to this 🙏😭
ex-boyfriend!colt x fem!reader
if there's anything colt may be known for it will be his dedication. once he sets eyes on something, or in this case, someone he likes, he will go out of his way just to keep them by his side.
he clears his throat while rubbing his clammy hands against his jeans, fiddling with the tucked in button-up as he rack through his brain going over how the scenario will play out.
'you'll be fine, just do like what you've practiced in front of the mirror' he encouraged himself while nodding in agreement. however, as soon as his eyes stumble upon you, his brain automatically shuts down.
his once rehearsed lines went in from one ear and went out the other, mind blank while staring at the item wrapped around your hair, a neatly tied bow on top of your head.
colt doesn't remember standing in front of you but seeing your bewildered expression tells him that there will be no turning back. "colt…" you trail off, hand unconsciously tugging on the ribbon.
"do you need something?" you voice shy and quiet.
his heart aches recalling reiner's words “she’s been quiet ever since you two broke up. she doesn’t even hang out with us anymore,” the blond takes a deep breath, mentally preparing himself.
opening his eyes, he looks straight into yours, staring deeply to your eyes. “you still have that?” he says while motioning to your hair. colt mentally punches himself, out of all the questions he has to blurt out it really have to be that one.
while he’s having an inner argument with himself you reach out and hold his hand, “colt,” your gaze fleeting down to the ground as you continue your words, “i’m willing to give it another try if that’s what you came here for.”
his eyes widen at your offer, “are you sure?” he stutters out, voice shaky from both excitement and fear. fear that he will soon wake up from this wonderful dream and live another day without you tucked in his arms.
you nod your head affirmatively. during the past months, not only reiner but all of the group pursued you nonstop, asking on colt's behalf to give him another chance. “but… you got hurt.. i made you cry,”
he retreats his hands from yours while taking a step back, “i don’t deserve you, y/n” he says while shaking his head, trying to convince himself more than you. “i shouldn’t have done it, shouldn’t have broken your heart.”
you shake your head to his statements, taking the initiative to come closer and cup his face. “it wasn’t your fault,” you give him a sad smile, thumb caressing his cheek. “it was back then, i was clouded with nothing but anger.”
colt looks back at you, eyes glassy from the tears he’s holding back. “what i failed to see was how you owned up to it,” you push his hair back, both of you nodding along your words.
“how you’re willing to change it as soon as you realize.” a tear rolls down his cheek, closing his eyes as he basks in your comfort.
“but colt..” you sniffle, unbeknown that tears have been streaming down your face. he hums letting you know he’s listening, “i need time.”
you lean forward, foreheads touching each other, mirroring him as you close your eyes.
“i need time to trust you again, i can’t guarantee you when,” your voice cracking from how hurt you’re feeling on the inside, the memory still fresh from your mind.
colt nods, understanding your reasons. he brings up a hand to cup your face pulling away to leave a kiss on your forehead, his kiss lingering.
“and i will earn your trust again, i’ll never get tired of pursuing you even if it means following you ‘till the end of the earth.”
warning: insecure of a body part (stomach), not proofread
amihan's note: i'm having second thoughts about posting this, if this came out in any way as offensive or insensitive please do tell me whether it be on ask or pm, i will take this down as soon as i'm told, i'll keep the bonus scene only. with that out of the way, happy reading!
live-in partner!connie x gn!reader
ever since quarantine started, you and your boyfriend have grown comfortable with each other’s skins. be it wearing something revealing or just walking around your shared apartment with nothing but underwear, no one will bat an eye. though, sometimes you can’t help but hide yourself.
just like today, you are wearing a cropped bralette partnered with shorts. feeling the dryness in your mouth due to summer heat, you stand up from your boyfriend’s comfortable arms to get yourself some water from the kitchen.
he looks up at you feeling your warmth go away, his lips turn upwards seeing you stretch your limbs with your eyes closed. your shorts hanging low on your hips, your stomach in full view.
you hear loud barks which cause you to immediately turn and look at him, shamelessly checks you out. “you’re so hot,” he looks at you up and down before looking you in the eyes, giving a wink.
you whine and cover your stomach, this makes connie frown and tries to pry your arms that’s covering your stomach, “no baby, i was enjoying the view” he whines back at you while you shake your head at him, “i don’t like it,” you complained to him.
the two of you ended up in a banter causing connie to stand up, “that’s it” he said with finality in his tone. you made a confused noise and slightly tilted your head to the side,
“what?” he starts jogging in his place and puts both of his fists in front of his face, “square up, you perfect being!” he playfully gives you a light jab, being careful not to actually hurt you, on your shoulder.
you can’t help but giggle at his actions, “come on!” he says one more time, “if i win that means you are perfect just the way you are,” he starts showing his moves, beating up the air.
he stops and points at you, “and if you win,” he gives you a cheeky smile, “that will still mean you are perfect just the way you are.”
you fondly roll your eyes at him and remove the arms covering your stomach. “fine, you win!” he puts his hands in the air, “victory!!” you shake your head at your boyfriend’s antics.
he checks you out one more time, “damn, i’m so lucky to have a significant other like you.” he mutters under his breath and quickly pecks you in the lips. he traps you in his arms and falls back on the couch, you hum in delight forgetting why you stood up in the first place.
-bonus scene; {if you have short/long hair!}
“hey connie, babe?!” you called out from your shared bathroom, he rushes there while humming, “you need something, baby?” you look at him in the mirror where both your eyes met. he leans on the doorframe folding his arms across his chest, you blink at him as he blinks back at you, he purses his lips trying to contain his laughter. “whaaat?” he dragged out his word, eyes still locked with you.
you gather some pieces of your hair and make a cutting motion, the length way shorter than what you would usually want, “what if i just..” you open and close your fingers between your hair and stare at him, “..you know?” you look back at him over your shoulder. his eyes literally brighten up and nod with a lot of excitement. “do it!!!!” he then moves closer to you, “can i cut it for you?” he suggested, ecstatic with the idea.
“i hate you” you grumble out, looking in the same bathroom mirror running your fingers through your hair. not feeling the same length that it used to be, “you're the worst to be quarantined with” you huff and look back at him, who’s laughing at you. “you always say yes to my impulsive shits!” you complained to him, whining a little.
he encases you with his arms and kisses your forehead, “you look beautiful no matter what hairstyle you have,” he leaves a kiss on your temple, “athena got nothing on you babe.” you snorted at his statement pounding on his chest lightly, “damn it, baby. if you're gonna be sweet at least get it right,” you giggle at his chest.
he pulls back a little and looks at you with seriousness written all over his face, “what? it is athena right?” you inhaled through your nose with your eyes closed, connie just observes you, lowkey memorizing every inch of your pretty face.
you exhale and look at him straight in the eyes, trying not to laugh “it’s aphrodite” you informed him, connie’s mouth formed in an ‘oh.’ a little dumbfounded at the moment, “well, i don’t care. as long as you got the message.” he buries your head to his chest to hide his reddened cheeks from embarrassment, your laughter vibrating in his chest.

summary: armin arlert and you are a married couple who lives a simple peaceful life until he got promoted.
husband!armin x spouse!reader
you lean to his touch, face resting against his warm palms. you smiled up at him as he did the same, “i love you” you said to him. armin cherishes moments like this, you always look the happiest when you’re with him. it’s not even his ego speaking, you genuinely just love him as a whole.
he loves that about you, he has never felt this way towards anyone, he’s always been afraid; afraid that maybe he will be showing too much affection, afraid of being called needy and worse of all afraid of eventually pushing people away because of those. he’s come to the point where he is comfortably living behind the shadows of his friends, however, you’re different.
you’ve come to notice him more than the others, he’s got used to being the last option for everyone. but you came and changed that. you’ve always put him first more than anyone, anything. his cheeks heat up at his thoughts, you have always been different from others.
the odd one out if you put in other words, but it’s not just you.. it’s both of you as a couple and he likes that. a soft smile starts appearing on his lips, hand still holding your face. “armin? sweetie? helloooo?” you wave a hand in front of his eyes.
he looked back at you, his brows rising up followed by a hum. “ah, sorry” he softly replied, you pouted, crossing your arms, his hand falling down from your face. “you’ve been awfully distracted for the past few days” his smile ever so slightly falters remembering why he went and had this day with you, “something wrong, baby?” you asked, concerned for his well being.
“were they overworking you again? i can always ask erwin-” he instantly shook his head, you’ve always become protective whenever it comes to his work. “no, it’s not that”
he took your hand in his, his thumb caressing the back of it, his eyes staring back at yours. you hummed, heart slightly picking up its pace. you suddenly have a bad feeling about this, uneasiness surfacing inside you.
“darling, i got promoted” your eyes widen in shock, not believing your own guts. you’re supposed to be overjoyed hearing this, your husband got promoted for god’s sake but anxiety is all you can feel. you forced a smile on your face, not wanting to ruin the mood.
“that’s great!” you shake both your hands in joy, you’re happy with his news but why are your emotions not cooperating? your guts still uneasy, “it’s overseas” his voice dejected, shoulders slouched. “but you still got a promotion! I’m happy for you baby!” he looks up to you, eyes glassy from the tears welling up, “really?” you nod smile still present on your face, “really”
“to armin!” jean’s slurred words echoed in the bar holding his cup of beer up in the air, the group rented the whole place for armin’s farewell party. which armin deeply disagreed with them doing, but once the group agreed on one thing there’s really no stopping.
the rest of the group repeated his words, cheering for armin who’s sitting beside you. your smile got wider, squeezing his hand, you leaned in and whispered “everything’s gonna be alright” your words reassuring him, his body relaxing almost instantly. he gave your hand a squeeze looking at you and mumbling a quick “thank you”
'umuwi ka na, baby
di na ako sanay nang wala ka'
translation: 'come home, baby
i’m not used without you by my side'
you stirred in your sleep, turning around and stretching your arm towards the other side expecting a warm body to snuggle with. you pat around the bed, brows furrowed in confusion.
you opened your eyes, sitting up straight looking at the empty space next to you. you groan reaching for your phone at the bedside table quickly tapping on his contact. “hello?” his voice laced with concern, you lay back relaxing from his soft voice on the other end.
'mahirap ang mag-isa
at sa gabi'y hinahanap-hanap kita’
translation: 'it’s hard to be alone
and every night, i miss you'
“what are you doing up? it’s the middle of the night there!” he lightly scolded you, your eyes closing picturing his cute angry face. “i miss you” his rant stopping after hearing you, he blushes and hides his face behind his hand speed walking to a room for privacy.
“don’t say those words so nonchalantly!” he whisper-shouted, causing your lips to turn upward, “you’re blushing?” he clicks his tongue, eyes darting every corner of the room he’s in. “armin we’re already married!” you teased hugging his pillow.
“so?” he weakly bite back, “that’s unfair, why are you always so cute?” you whined playing with the ring on your finger as it reflected from the moonlight. conversation flowed smoothly between the two of you, his voice unknowingly calming and lulling you back to sleep. your eyes drooping close, his story slowly fading away.
after some time of not hearing any response from you, armin chuckles imagining you adorably sleeping with your phone falling down on the bed. “see you in your dreams, my darling” he whispers on his phone before ending the call.
‘hanggang kailan ako maghihintay na makasama kang muli
sa buhay kong puno ng paghihirap?’
translation: 'how long will i wait to be with you again
in my life full of suffering?'
you held armin’s hands wrapping them around you, leaning in his touch as you took in his warmth humming in delight. he’s finally here, alive and in flesh. no more cold nights, the bed won’t feel big anymore.
“i missed you so much” you mumble on his skin, “i know” he said while stroking your head. “but you need to let go” he whispers, you shut your eyes tightly shaking your head.
‘at tanging ikaw lang ang pumapawi sa mga luha
at naglalagay ng ngiti sa mga labi
umuwi ka na, baby’
translation: 'and you are the only one who wipes away my tears
and puts a smile on my lips
come home, baby'
“no” you firmly said, hugging him tighter. “y/n, darling” his voice slowly fading “you have to” your breath hitched, his once warm body now feels cold. “armin no” your voice cracking desperately clinging to him.
“you need to accept it” he smiled sadly at you, “no no no, that’s not true” eyes still closed not wanting to face the reality.
“utopia district police chief, chief superintendent armin arlert died on duty…” the television’s static sound filled the room.
you felt your knees buckle, falling down on the cold floor of your shared apartment. your tears that you didn’t know you were holding back are now falling down your face freely.
