Read on AO3 Here X Part of Jeankasa Pop Terms. @jeankasachallenge I wanted to write something silly and banter-y. Hope if you read that it's enjoyable.

I noticed that many people think that the JK in Pop Terms event is only about pop, but it's not. It's about EVERYTHING, it's about getting inspired by any media of your choice, regardless of where or when it was made. Everything is valid. I'm gonna make a post to clear things up. So wait for that, I guess 😭

Jeankasa; Little woman inspired

"Don't marry him," Jean's words cut through the air with chilling clarity. Mikasa's heart lurches in her chest, and in her mind, a whirlwind of thoughts is unleashed. Why now? Why Jean, of all people, is saying this to her?

The atmosphere grows tense as silence hangs between them. The whisper of leaves rustled by the breeze seems to quiet in comparison to the emotions engulfing her. Mikasa, her gaze fixed on the ground, feels her heart pounding with an intensity that threatens to burst from her chest. Thoughts crowd her mind, an uncontrollable torrent of memories and reflections.

"What?" she says in a barely audible whisper, seeking confirmation, an explanation. But Jean's words are not ambiguous; they carry a meaning she fears understanding.

The distance between them shortens as Jean approaches.

"Don't marry Eren," he repeats.

"Why?" Mikasa watches Jean's eyes, searching for answers that have remained concealed until now.

"You know why," his response is gentle yet firm.

Incredulity dances in her eyes, her mind grappling to make sense of what's happening. No, this can't be real. Emotions within her stir. Her younger self would have reveled in this declaration, a romantic twist of fate. But in this very moment, it seems absurd, almost surreal.

She recalls the days of her childhood, when her heart raced at his mere presence, the affectionate gestures that initially made her fall for him, the shared smiles. How secretly she had longed for this moment since childhood when she looked at Jean with innocent and affectionate eyes. Even now, glimpses of the boy who once lived next door linger in her memory, interwoven with the man before her.

She feels a pang of pain in her chest as if something vital is being torn apart within her.

"No, no," she whispers as if denying it could reverse the turn of events.

"Yes," his voice expresses conviction, unyielding in its insistence.

Jean extends his hand toward her, attempting to touch the soft skin of her cheek. But Mikasa retreats, as if his touch were an invisible burn. Tears finally spill over, streaming down her cheeks. The pain in her chest is tangible as if a part of her being is slowly being torn away.

"You're being cruel," she murmurs with a voice fractured by emotion.

The accumulated pain of years, the feelings she had tried to ignore and forget, all surge with force. Tears trace paths down her face as she struggles to maintain her composure. She had thought that when she left for Europe with her Aunt Kiyomi, she could finally leave behind these emotions that had tormented her. But here she is again, facing the same feelings for the man who was once her secret longing.

"What? How am I being cruel?" Jean questions, his voice slightly faltering.

Mikasa inhales deeply, her heart now spinning in a whirlwind of affection for a man who once felt affection for her sister. The situation feels like a tasteless joke, a cruel twist of fate. Did he truly believe that she could be a substitute, a consolation prize just because Pieck had rejected him? The struggle between pain, anger, and betrayal boils within her. Did he think she would simply run into his arms the moment he asked her not to marry Eren?

The weight of her affection for him is undeniable, but that doesn't mean she's willing to be used as a replacement for her sister, a stand-in for unrequited love.

All the pain she had harbored for so long rises from the depths of her past, accumulating in her throat until it's finally released, unleashing a flood of emotions she had tried to suppress for so long.

"I've been second to Pieck my whole life, and I won't be the person you settle for just because you can't have her. I won't do it, I won't."

The weight of her revelation hangs in the air, a raw vulnerability exposed. The pain in Mikasa's heart, her frustration, and her unwavering affection, all spill out in a torrent of words, painting a vivid canvas of emotions that can no longer be contained.

The fragile threads of her composure unravel.

"Not when I've spent my entire life loving you."
