The One that Got Away • Zeke Jaeger X Reader

Chapter 19

2 years later...

It's been 2 years since Reiner and I came home. It's been also 2 years since Zeke and I's relationship became deeper.

I noticed that Zeke is hiding something from me. When I'm asking him what's wrong, he just answer me that it's nothing, so that I will not get worried.

He's out right now, I don't know where he was going. He said he had some business to do. I wonder what it was?

We left their house, and we're living in Marley's warriors dorm with my other comrades.

Zeke just arrived, he entered my room with a watermelon. "I bought your favorite." He said with a warm smile.

I jump out my bed and rush to get it. "Thank you love! by the way, where did you go?" I said with a smile.

"I just went somewhere important." He answered, he smiled to assure me that I don't need to worry.

I didn't answer him to refrain myself from asking questions. I just went to my kitchen and put the watermelon inside the refrigerator.

He followed me, and he hugged me from my back. "It's so nice to hug you because you're so soft." He said resting his face on my neck.

I hold his hand on my waist and I turn around to face him.

I hold his face and leaned closer my face to his. "Please don't hide anything from me, you know that you can tell me everything, right?" I said.

"Of course I know that. I'm not hiding anything from you, love." He said and he kissed my forehead.

After a moment of silence, he pulled the hug. "By the way love, they will send us again on a war, next week." He sighed.

"I hope it doesn't take 5 years again." I chuckled.

After a moment of talking, I decided to call Pieck, Reiner, and Porco to join me eating this watermelon.

2 years ago, Porco inherited the Jaw Titan. Ymir looks so awful that time, Historia and her never got to marry each other, how sad.

"What's your deal, Y/N?" Porco asked in annoyance. Pieck and I are pulling him to come with us, while Reiner is just laughing.

"Come on! let's eat watermelon, Zeke brought that earlier and I want to share it with you!" I playfully glared at him.

After we successfully pulled Porco, we all sit down on my dining table.

"Zeke, are you always here in Y/N's room? every minute? " Porco teasingly asked.

I blushed on what Porco said. "Yeah, why?" Zeke raised his eyebrows at Porco. It made me blushed more. Porco choked and burst his laugh out.

"What's funny?" I asked. Porco is still laughing.

"That's why he's still single." Reiner said and we all laughed at him, while Porco stop laughing on what Reiner said.

"Shut up Reiner." Porco is annoyed again. Porco is a low tempered person.

"So, Y/N and Zeke, have you ever had s-" I didn't let Porco finished his words, he's really annoying me, because I forced him to go here.

"Ok ok! you shut up Porco!" I said at Porco in annoyance. Porco just burst his laughter on me, I just rolled my eyes.

We talked for a while and they decided to go back to their room.

It's getting dark and Zeke isn't going to his room yet.

"Do you want to stay here?" I asked.

"Can I?" He said with a cute smile.

"Of course." I chuckled at him because he looks cute.

After we ate we decided to go to bed. I lay down beside him and I lay my head down on his arms.

"Love, Levi was the one who took you down, right?" I asked and I look up at him.

"Yes, what about him?" He asked.

"When I was 11, when I was living inside the walls, he was my first friend." I said.

"Really? I'm sure he was arrogant back then, even 2 years ago." He chuckled but later on he hissed. "His face is so damn annoying." He said in annoyance, I just laughed at his reaction.

"You told me earlier that you're going to read a book for me." I said.

"Oh right." He said and he get his book beside the bed.

He reads the book and I'm imagining it as if it was me, the main character. Sometimes, I let him pause for a moment because I don't get what he was reading and he's going to explain it to me.

"They got married, and they have 2 kids named Grace and Hope. After that, they live happily ever after." He closed the book and looks at me.

"What a good story! I hope I can also get married and have kids, but I only have 4 years left." I said with a sad voice.

"Maybe in another life, or in parallel universe, we can have our own happily ever after." He said. I cried quietly on what he said.
