As the moonlight filtered through the curtains, Eren's gaze locked with Y/n's, deepening the connection between their souls. Their hearts beat in sync, echoing a symphony of desire. Slowly, he lifted his hand, tracing the line of her jaw with his fingertips, marveling at the softness beneath his touch.
Y/n's breath hitched as she felt the gentle caress, a surge of warmth flooding her veins. Her eyes fluttered closed, surrendering to the intoxicating sensation. Eren's touch was tender yet possessive, his thumb grazing her bottom lip, causing her to part them in anticipation.
Unable to resist any longer, Eren leaned in, his lips hovering just inches away from Y/n's. The electric tension between them buzzed, their fleeting breaths mingling in the air. Time stood still, the world fading away as he claimed her lips with a feather-light brush.
A shiver raced down Y/n's spine, sending waves of pleasure through her body. Eren's kiss spoke volumes, a language only their hearts could understand. His lips molded against hers, a perfect blend of passion and tenderness. The sweet taste of desire danced on their tongues, a symphony of emotions that crescendoed with each stolen breath.
Their mouths moved in sync, a dance of fire and longing. Eren's hand cupped the back of Y/n's head, deepening their connection, pulling her even closer. The room was filled with a symphony of sighs and gentle moans, as their bodies merged in a heavenly embrace.
With every kiss, the world around them ceased to exist, leaving only their fervent need for one another. They explored the depths of each other's souls, leaving no stone unturned, as their heartbeats became one, a rhythm that echoed through their entire being.
It was more than a kiss, more than just a touch. It was a sacred union, a testament to their love and desires. In that embrace, they found solace, passion, and a profound intimacy that words could never truly capture.
Y/n's heart raced against her chest, a mixture of desire and uncertainty clouding her thoughts. As Eren's lips fervently pressed against hers, a battle ensued within her soul. She knew the depth of their connection, the electric chemistry that flowed between them, but something was holding her back.
With a heavy sigh, Y/n summoned the strength to pull away, her eyes flickering with a mixture of longing and apprehension. The taste of Eren's essence still lingered on her lips, a bittersweet reminder of the passion they had shared. She gently placed her hand on his chest to create a small distance between them, needing a moment to collect her thoughts.
Eren's eyes flickered with confusion and concern, a flicker in his gaze that mirrored the turmoil within Y/n's heart. He searched her eyes, his voice mere whispers as he softly asked, "What's wrong?"
Y/n's voice trembled slightly as she tried to find the right words to convey the storm brewing inside her. "Eren, it's not that I don't want this," she began, her voice laced with vulnerability, "but I'm afraid...afraid of what losing control might bring."
Eren's brows furrowed, his hands instinctively reaching out, no longer desiring the intimacy but rather a soothing comfort. "I understand," he replied, his voice filled with empathy. "We move at the pace you're comfortable with, Y/n. Our connection is more than physical, it's about trust and understanding."
As Y/n looked into Eren's earnest eyes, her heartbeat steadied, reassurance flowing through her veins. It wasn't rejection or fear that made her pull away; it was the wisdom to honor her own boundaries, to fully embrace the depth of their connection without allowing fear to cloud her judgment.
A tender smile curved on Eren's lips, a silent exchange of gratitude passing between them. He pulled her into an embrace, enveloping her in his warmth and understanding, reminding her that their love transcended mere physicality. Their mutual respect deepened their bond, allowing them to navigate the complexities of their desires and finding solace in each other's arms.

The twilight cast a soft glow as Eren's car pulled up in front of Y/n's house. Y/n stood on the doorstep, her heart heavy with the weight of the impending farewell. Eren stepped out of the car, his tall figure illuminated by the fading sunlight.
A mixture of emotions danced across their faces as their eyes met, a silent understanding passing between them. Y/n took a deep breath, summoning the strength to break the silence that hung in the air. "Thank you for driving me home, Eren," she spoke, her voice tinged with a touch of wistfulness.
Eren's gaze softened, a gentle smile curving on his lips. "It's the least I could do," he replied, his voice carrying a hint of sadness. "I just wanted to make sure you got home safely."
Y/n nodded, her eyes shifting to the ground momentarily before meeting his again. "Today was... incredible," she admitted, her voice tinged with a mixture of fondness and regret. "I never expected to feel such a profound connection with someone."
Eren's expression mirrored her own, a longing glimmer shining in his eyes. "Believe me, Y/n, the feeling is mutual," he confessed, his voice laden with sincerity. "But sometimes, life takes us on different paths, even when our hearts yearn for more."
Tears welled up in Y/n's eyes, threatening to spill over as she reached out to touch Eren's hand. "I wish we had more time," she whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "But perhaps, this goodbye is necessary for us to truly understand the depth of our connection."
Eren's thumb gently caressed the back of Y/n's hand, an unspoken promise of remembrance. "Sometimes, the most profound connections are forged in bittersweet moments," he uttered, his voice filled with a blend of sadness and hope. "Just remember, Y/n, our paths may diverge, but our hearts will forever be entwined."
They stood there, enveloped in a poignant silence, the weight of their unspoken emotions filling the void. The inevitability of their parting hung heavy in the air, yet their connection remained unbreakable. With one last exchange of glances filled with unspoken words, Y/n slowly stepped back, breaking the physical touch but not the intangible bond.
As Eren's car pulled away, Y/n watched him disappear into the distance, tears cascading down her cheeks. The echoes of their conversation lingered in her heart, a reminder of a connection that defied time and space. And though they were saying goodbye for now, they both knew that their encounter, however fleeting, had forever imprinted on their souls, leaving an indelible mark on their individual journeys.
Y/n's footsteps echoed through the empty corridor as she hurriedly made her way to her apartment. Each step felt heavier than the last, burdened by the weight of regret that settled upon her shoulders. As she swung the door open, she dashed inside, the air in the room thick with her pent-up emotions.
Without hesitation, Y/n threw herself onto the plush comfort of her bed, burying her face in her tear-stained pillow. A muffled cry escaped her lips, a raw expression of the sadness that consumed her. The echoes of her rejection of Eren reverberated through her mind, tormenting her with what-ifs and what-could-have-beens.
Her chest heaved with every sob, her body trembling as the floodgates of her emotions opened wide. The emptiness she felt, the longing for Eren's touch, filled the room, colliding with the reality of her decision. How could she have let fear override her desires? How could she have turned away from the possibility of a love that felt so real?
The weight of her actions pressed heavily upon her, threatening to suffocate her. She clutched the pillow tighter, seeking solace in its softness, while her heart churned with an unbearable ache. Regret seeped into her bones, her mind swirling with a million "what ifs" and "if onlys."
I1n the confines of her sanctuary, Y/n allowed herself to grieve for the missed connection, for the love she had pushed away. The tears flowed freely, washing away the insecurities and doubts that had clouded her judgment. With each sob, she released the pain, the heaviness that threatened to consume her.
Y/n's trembling fingers tapped against her phone screen as she composed a message to her dear friend Sasha. The weight of her recent encounter with Eren begged to be shared, to be understood by someone who knew her so well. With a deep breath, she pressed send, knowing that Sasha's support would be a comforting balm amidst her swirling emotions.
Sasha🥔
You: Hey Sasha, I have something to tell you. Can we talk?
As she anxiously awaited Sasha's response, Y/n shifted her focus to her surroundings, finding a flickering sense of calm in her apartment. Moments later, a notification from Sasha's name appeared, causing her heart to flutter with anticipation.
Sasha🥔: Of course, Y/n! What's going on? Is everything okay?
Y/n's fingers danced across the keys as she began recounting her encounter with Eren, her words flowing freely, as if it were the only way to truly release the depth of her emotions.
You: So, something unexpected happened today... Eren confessed his feelings towards me. It was intense, Sasha. I could feel the connection between us, this electric warmth that soared through my veins. But...I don't know. I couldn't bring myself to fully reciprocate. I pulled away from the kiss, and now I'm filled with regret. What if I let fear ruin something potentially beautiful?
Seconds turned into minutes as Y/n anxiously awaited Sasha's response, her thoughts consumed by the multitude of outcomes that could arise from her confession.
Sasha🥔: Oh wow, Y/n, that's incredible! I can only imagine how intense that must've been. But hey, don't be so hard on yourself. It's okay to feel uncertain, to have reservations. What truly matters is that you honored your boundaries and listened to your instincts. Remember, love should never be rushed or forced.
Y/n's racing heart slowed slightly as Sasha's reassuring words washed over her. The weight of her regret began to ease, replaced by a gentle sense of understanding.
You: You're right, Sasha. Thank you for reminding me of that. I was just so overwhelmed in the moment. I want to explore this connection with Eren, but I also want to take things at a pace that feels right for me. It's scary, but I know deep down that protecting my own heart is just as important as embracing love.
Sasha🥔: Absolutely, Y/n. Your heart deserves to be cherished and respected. Trust your instincts and remember that true love will always meet you where you're at. If Eren is meant to be a part of your journey, he'll understand and support your decision. Just stay true to yourself, and everything will fall into place.
Y/n found solace in Sasha's words, gratitude swelling within her for such a wise and understanding friend. A renewed sense of hope kindled within her, her heart once again open to the possibilities that lay ahead.
You: Thank you, Sasha. Your support means the world to me. I'm going to take things one step at a time and see where this path leads. I'm hopeful for the future, and I know that with you by my side, I'll find the strength to navigate whatever comes my way.
Sasha🥔: You know I'll always be here for you, Y/n. Whatever you decide, I'm here to listen, to support, and to remind you of your incredible worth. Remember, you deserve nothing but the love and happiness that fulfills your heart.
With gratitude swelling in her chest, Y/n set her phone down, her heart filled with newfound determination to honor herself and her journey. Sasha's unwavering support served as a beacon of guidance, reminding her of the power within to find her own happiness, whether with Eren or along a different path entirely.
