Mike x Reader Part 2

"And Erwin will choose new Squad Leaders," Mike reminded as you pursed your lips together. You had only heard talk of that, you never actually expected it to happen.

"Is he? I've only heard talk of that," you explained as Mike nodded in understanding.

"Erwin wanted to keep it a secret. But (Y/N)," you looked up at Mike as he spoke your name. "Don't be shocked if he promotes you," the blonde explained as you looked at him in confusion before your eyes widened.

"What did you do?!" you demanded as Mike grinned cheekily at you.

"I put your name forward for a promotion," the blonde answered as you glared daggers at the man.

"And here I thought you liked having me around," you huffed and folded your arms. Mike chuckled at your reaction and snaked one of his long arms around your neck, pulling you into his broad chest.

You made an embarrassed 'ep' sound as the blonde rested his chin on your head. When he was tired, he was different. You had come to realise this over the past few years.

"I enjoy having you around, you know I do. But I can't teach you anything else, so I thought you might like the opportunity to be able to train others and develop your skills more," Mike explained as you hummed. You honestly didn't like the idea of leaving Mikes' Squad.

"Fine, but I'm still not happy about this," you muttered into the blondes' chest as Mike snickered. "Go to sleep, you know where I am if you need me," you ordered, pushing yourself away from Mike in a huff.

The blonde knew he had made you a little angry, but he also knew you would be furious if you found out tomorrow from Erwin instead of from him.

"Goodnight, (Y/N)."

"Goodnight, Mike."

Mike sighed as he tossed and turned in his bed. His eyes were wide open and he just couldn't find a comfy position to lay in. He continued glancing out of the window, knowing the sun would start rising soon if he didn't do something about his lack of sleep.

So, the blonde did the only thing he could think of. He sat up, rubbing his eyes, threw his legs over the bed and made his way towards your room. He glanced at the door for a moment, seeing no light emit from anywhere in the room.

Mike chewed the inside of his cheek slightly. It was out of character for him to be nervous, but this was an exception. This was the only time he had ever come to your room in the middle of the night because he couldn't sleep. He didn't doubt others in the Corps were doing the same thing, but still... he was a Squad Leader.

The blonde reached a hand out to the door and gently pushed it open. You groaned in your sleep at the creakiness of the door, rolling over in your bed as Mike stepped into the pitch black room.

When the door clicked shut, you opened an eye and looked up slightly, hand resting gently under your pillow as you pushed your head up a little, though you doubt the intruder would have seen it.

You groaned, the first thought running through your mind is that you were exhausted and weren't ready to face the day. So, you rested your head back on your pillow, closed your eyes and rolled onto your back.

Your arms and legs sprawled all over the bed as you yawned and steadied your breathing again.

Your eyes furrowed slightly as the bed dipped beside you. You opened your eyes though when you felt an arms link around your waist and a head rest on your chest.
