I Wanna Be Yours (Jean Kirstein x Fem! Reader)

Forty-Two (42) - Forget

"If you can't do it...then I will...just so I can keep you safe." Jean said.

Y/n's eyes became glossy, her tears almost fell, but Jean cupped her face and gently wiped her eyes.

"I hesitated, too. Earlier...to kill a human. Because I think it's wrong, but look where it took me. I almost died, but thankfully I didn't, thanks to Armin. Also...I put my comrades in danger. So I understand how you feel, I can't even kill a human, doesn't matter if that human is ny friend or what, while you...Payne is your friend, I think that only made it harder for you to decide what you should do..."

Jean smiled a bit at Y/n, giving a little comfort to the young h/c lady.

"So...if you don't want to do it, then I will...don't think for now..." Jean said.

Y/n's lips trembled, she teared up and just relaxed onto Jean's gentle hold on her face. Jean leaned on the wooden barrier behind them, he leaned Y/n's head on his shoulder. Y/nclosed her eyes and held onto Jean's right arm.

"You should take a nap. I'll wake you upwhen it's already time for dinner." Jean said.

"M'kay..." Y/n said.

Jean looked down at Y/n.

A small smile crept onto his lips upon seeing Y/n is now looking calm.

Jean leaned his head on Y/n's head, he closed his eyes and also took a nap.

--

Sixty minutes have passed, and
Y/n had already woken up, her brows furrowed when she noticed that she's now laying on the ground, she has a cloak covering her from the cold and and her bag on her head as a pillow.

Y/n sat up, she rubbed her eyes and yawned. She looked around, only to see the horses are already sleeping.

Y/n looked outside, she let out a sigh after seeing that the surroundings is already dark, but there's a light from a bonfire coming from the outside.

Y/n stood up,

she paused for a while upon noticing that she's wearing a loose cardigan, her brows shot-up upon realizing that it's the cardigan she made for Jean.

A small smile crept onto her lips, Y/n picked up the cloak and wore it, then she kept her bag placed on the side.

"Hey..."

Y/n looked back only to see Jean, the man is holding a bowl of hot stew and a cup that seems to have a hot drink inside. "You're awake." Jean said.

He walked towards Y/n, then placed the stew and tea on top of the wooden barrier. "You should eat." Jean said.

"Where's the others?" Y/n asked.

"Outside. Also having dinner. Do you want to join us?" Jean asked.

Y/n shook her head. "No...I'd like to be alone for a while." Y/n said.

"I understand."

Y/n picked up the stew and tea Jean brought for her, she stirred the stew, then sipped on her chamomile tea.

Jean stood behind the wooden barrier, arms crossed over his chest, while Y/n is on the other side, and now eating her stew. They back-to-back at each other. "It may be a wrong timing, but can I ask you--"

"Cut to the chase, Jean-boy. What is it that you want to ask?" Y/n asked.

Jean frowned, he looked over his shoulder to glance at Y/n, he bit the inside of his lower lip, then looked away, his cheeks and ears became red.

"Do you...uhm...do you...l-like someone right now?" Jean asked.

Y/n paused, she was just about to have another spoon of her stew, but now she paused on her track, her spoon is near her mouth that's open.
