Work Text:
When they first began dating, Mikasa had always been the “clingy” one between her and Eren. She would get jealous when others are too close with him, even if it were a family member or a close friend. She knows about her own jealousy and is very insecure about it. But no matter how much self control she has, she can’t help herself from being angry.
However, for Eren, he finds it cute when Mikasa gets jealous, he even would sometimes tease her for fun. He would always reassure her that he loved no one more than her and would always stay with her.
After they turn eighteen, their personalities begin to switch abruptly. Mikasa became more outgoing and Eren began to be more timid. He would always be near Mikasa as if she were his life support. He becomes hostile to anyone that flirts with her. Hell, he will be hostile to anyone if they were close to Mikasa in general.
One day in particular when it was early sunrise, the two love birds were both in bed together as usual. Mikasa was first to wake up, but when she tried to leave for work, she felt something pulling on her waist, preventing her from leaving.
“Eren?”
She called out to her boyfriend quietly, trying not to be so loud early in the morning. “It’s already morning. I have to get ready for work.”
She turned her head around to see Eren, still dazed. He opened his eyes to acknowledge her for a moment, only for him to close his eyes and bury his chin further down to her shoulder, the warmth of his breath tickling her skin.
“Eren, I have to get up now.” Mikasa tried to squirm away once more, but Eren held tighter, preventing her from escaping leaving.
“No..” He mumbled in his sleep. “Stay a bit longer.”
Mikasa eventually gave up on convincing Eren to let her go. She altered her body around so that she was on her back and Eren was laying on her chest. She used her right hand to massage Eren’s scalp and hair.
“You’re very needy aren’t you?” Mikasa asked, grinning to herself. “Maybe more than me.” Eren looked up to her. His vivid turquoise eyes gazed at his lover.
“I guess it’s because I love you so much.”
That caught Mikasa off guard for sure. How could this man, no. How dare this man be so blunt?!
Unfortunately, Mikasa’s time to be flustered was cut short because of her phone ringing. She sat up to receive the phone call, which caused Eren to finally let go of her.
“Hello?” She answered. “Mikasa dear! How are you?” The person on the phone was Erwin, Mikasa’s father. “Hi Papa. How are you?” “I’m doing very well. Say, would you mind meeting with the family for dinner in the evening?” “Of course! I’ll come meet you after work.” “Thank you Mikasa. I’ll see you tonight. I love you.” “I love you too Papa. Bye.” Mikasa hangs up the phone. She looked down at Eren, who was now pouting on her lap.
“First, you’re going to work, and now you have to meet with your family?” He puffed with anger, causing Mikasa to burst into giggles.
“It’s fine Eren. If you want, you can come along if you’re gonna miss so much.”Eren hesitated for a moment, but eventually agreed.
“Fine, but only if your old man Levi and siblings won’t bother me.” He joked. “Oh my goodness Eren.” Mikasa laughed once more.
Eren grinned to himself when Mikasa laughed, his stomach would flutter with happiness for every time she was happy. “Mikasa.” He said, promptly sitting up. “I love you. I love you so much.” His hands begin wandering around his lover’s body. His left hand held up her chin while his right hand pulled her body close to his. Mikasa smirked, slowly wrapping his arms around his neck.
“That must be impossible, because I love you more.” Eren looked at her, his calm expression reverting into a perkish one. “Don’t you start now.” He sang, smothering Mikasa with kisses as they fell to the bed, both laughing uncontrollably. Well, this is one certain way to start off a morning isn’t it? But it’s certainly one of the best.
