The next day

Ymir waited to hear the floorboards creaking down the corridor as she knew that Historia would be unable to sleep. As soon as the creaks could be heard, Ymir swung open her bedroom door and screamed "BOO!".

"AAAAAH", Historia shrieked, turning around to realise that it was only Ymir.
Ymir broke down into a fit of laughter.
"I can't believe that still works on you!", She snorted, "I suppose little Krista is still in there".
"You're mean!", Historia cried, crossing her arms.
"I know", Ymir got out, in between her her hysterics.

"Anyway, you don't need to go out and scream at the sky or whatever just because you can't sleep", Ymir told Historia, finally stopping her laughter.
"I-I'm not going to do that!", Historia lied.
"You used to always climb into my bed whenever you had nightmares", Ymir smiled, feeling nostalgic, "you're still welcome to do that, you know. I know you want to".
"I-", Historia started, hoping that Ymir couldn't see the colour of her face in the dark. She sighed. "Okay", she said.

Ymir went back to her room, Historia following her, and they both climbed into Ymir's bed.
"So, what were those nightmares about", Ymir asked as Historia wrapped her arms around her, just like she used to.
"It was nothing", Historia stated, her voice muffled in Ymir's arm.
"You need to stop this one-minute-I-love-you-but-the-next-minute-I-hate-you-Ymir thing", Ymir laughed, looking down at Historia.

"You're a hypocrite", Historia replied, "you never tell me how you're feeling".
"Oh okay, um, right now, I'm feeling very horny since Historia Reiss is in my-", Ymir started.
"Ymir!", Historia screamed, blushing and pushing Ymir away.
"I thought you wanted to know how I felt!", Ymir laughed.

"Fine. I was having nightmares about how you are going to ditch me again in two years time", Historia told Ymir.
"I really am sorry about that but I promise, I won't leave you for these two years, no matter what", Ymir sighed, "even if my body's bleached to the bone".
"I'll do the same", Historia replied, "even if my body's bleached to the bone".

"It doesn't matter if we only have two years", Ymir told Historia.
She pulled Historia close again so that she could run her fingers through Historia's long blonde hair.
"We just have to enjoy it as much as we can now", she whispered into Historia's ear.

 "We just have to enjoy it as much as we can now", she whispered into Historia's ear

The next morning, both Ymir and Historia woke up early as they had had a goodnight's sleep for the first time in a long while. They went downstairs and ate the last of the food Historia had brought a couple of days ago for breakfast.

"We should go to the market together today", Historia suggested, "I mean, we haven't really been out together".
"That sounds great", Ymir smiled.
They both went back upstairs to their rooms to get ready.
