"Y/N..," you heard a deep, gruff voice whisper to you, taunting you awake. Your eyes hesitantly fluttered open to reveal that you were still laying against Reiner's warm chest. The party had died down a little. Sasha and Niccolo weren't there anymore, and Mikasa was helping Armin clean up while the remaining friends talked casually. "Good morning," Reiner said when he noticed that you were awake again.

"Hey, sorry I didn't mean to drift off," you apologized, rubbing your eyes while careful not to smudge any makeup.

"You're fine. I feel bad that I had to wake you up, you looked comfortable," He was right, you were comfortable. His chest made the perfect warm surface to lay against, the steady rise and fall from his breathing lulling you into a sleepy trance. You softly smiled at him and hummed in response.

"Anyways, we should get going. It's already 11:30 and I have to get some sleep for the game tomorrow." You nodded in agreement and regretfully lifted your body off of his chest. Your back immediately felt cold from the loss of touch. Every instinct in you begged to fall into him again. Against your own will, you stood and offered your hand to help Reiner up.

He took it to use as leverage to pull himself off the ground, but his weight caused you to stumble. The both of you wobbled until he finally stood up straight, yet your hand slipped from his at the last second. His reaction was too slow to catch it again. Before you knew what was happening, you were falling backwards from your unsteady balance.

You braced yourself and expected to land on the hard wood floor, but instead you collided into a body with a dull thud. You looked up to see Eren's nose crinkled in a wince. He quickly recovered his facial expression to its neutral state and sat up. Your body was sprawled onto his lap clumsily, your mind too stunned and slowed from the alcohol to force your legs to stand up again.

"Shit, sorry Y/N!" Reiner apologized. The remaining people in the living room laughed at the spectacle before eventually returning to their conversation. Reiner's expression threw daggers at Eren behind you, though you were unsure as to why. Your body slowly began to unfreeze from the temporary paralysis, and you shifted to remove yourself from Eren's lap.

He roughly grabbed your waist with both hands to get you up. His thumbs dug into the lower dimples of your back. Before applying enough force to raise you, he sneakily leaned into your ear.

"Show him a good time tonight, won't you?" he hoarsly whispered just loud enough for you to hear him. Before you had enough time to react he lifted you easily and you were standing on your own two feet again. Your mind dizzied from his words and your face felt like it was on raging on fire. You were too flustered to look into those forest eyes again. Instead, you focused on Reiner's hand that was now against your lower back, as if not trusting you to not fall again, while he said his goodbyes to everyone. You joined him and gave your own round of good byes to everybody except for Eren before finding Mikasa and Armin in the kitchen once more.

"Hey guys, I think we're gonna head out," you told them.

"Sounds good. I'll see you at home?" Mikasa said, half questioning while glancing between you and Reiner who could be seen through the doorway in the living room.

"Yeah, I think so," you answered, killing her suspicion of what might happen tonight. "Armin, thanks again for letting me come tonight. I had a lot of fun."
