It's a 'her' (Ymir x Christa) (modern)

*TIME SKIP*
*A MONTH LATER*

HISTORIA P.O.V.

It passed almost a month since the day I confessed my love for Ymir to my sister.
I was finally became Ymir's girlfriend.
I was often visiting her and I was sleeping at her almost every night.
During the past few days we decided to go to the aquarium and see some animals.
It has been a great day.
Ymir also did a prank on a shark, hiding under the tank and, when the shark was close enough, she jumped out, scaring him and making him swim away!
I also had the video of the whole situation and I couldn't help but laugh anytime I was seeing the shark's reaction!

I was really happy to have her as my girlfriend. She was everything I could ever dream about. And no man could ever replace her. Especially Reiner.
The fact was that... I still hadn't said anything to my parents.
I was really seeing Ymir in secret.
Well, not a total secret.
My parents knew that I was hanging out with my friends. They didn't know who my friend was, neither that I was in a relationship with her.

And I still didn't know how to tell them. Even if all of that wasn't enough, my wedding with Reiner was still in a month.

"What's wrong?" asked Ymir, while we were walking away from the coffee shop, the take-away coffees in our hands.
I looked at her, smiling.
"Oh, nothing! Just that..." I looked at the coffee in my hands "my wedding is in a month and-"
"Wedding?!" exclaimed Ymir, turning all her body to face me, looking at me with her eyes and mouth wide opened.
I looked at her with an apologising look.
"S-sorry... I forgot to tell you that I couldn't do anything to block my wedding..." I said, holding tighter my cup.

She first blinked her eyes twice, then she shook her head.
She passed a hand through her hair, moving the tufts she had at the sides of her face on her head, then making them fall again at their place.

She looked firstly at the floor, closing her mouth, then she moved her eyes on me.
"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked.
I looked away from her eyes.
"I... I forgot..."
"You forgot?!" Ymir yelled.
She seemed angry.
During the month we were together, I've never seen her like that.
"Sorry..." I whispered.
"Christa! How could you forget?! Is this wedding more important than me?!" she asked, always furious.
I looked at her, still holding tight my cup.
"No! Of course not!"
Ymir sighed, calming down.
"Sorry, Christa... I didn't have to yell at you... I know that your relationship with your parents is difficult. Forgive me"

I smiled and offered my hand to Ymir. She looked at it, then she hold it, letting my fingers cross with hers.
"I forgive you" I said, with a smile.

Ymir and I continued to walk, hand in hand, but in silence.
She was drinking her coffee, lost in her thoughts, while I wasn't even looking at it.
I wasn't feeling like drinking.
I was feeling bad for not telling Ymir about my wedding.
She actually didn't know many things...

"Christa?" I heard her saying.
"Yeah?" I asked, turning my head to look at her.
Ymir wasn't looking at me, but at an indeterminate point in front of her.
"Who is this guy you have to marry?"
"His name is Reiner Braun. He is son of one of my dad-"
"Wait! Reiner Braun?" She asked.
"Yeah..." I answered, a bit confused "do you know him?"
Ymir ignored me. She semi closed her eyes and she frowned her eyebrows, giving to the indeterminate point in front of her an angry gaze.
I felt her hand holding me tighter and tighter, but I think it was due to the fact that she was furious about something.
"That fucking son of a bitch" I heard her whisper, still ignoring my presence and looking in front of her.
Her hand was holding mine even tighter than before. I was feeling her fingers pressing against the back of my hand and hurting my skin.
"Y-Ymir... you're hurting me..."

Ymir seemed to come back to reality.
She opened her eyes and looked at our hands.
"Oh sorry, Christa!" she exclaimed, letting go of my hand.
I looked at it. Red signs were covering my hand exactly were Ymir's fingers were pressed a moment before.
"Don't worry..." I whispered "by the way, can I ask you why do you have all this hate for Reiner?"
Ymir looked away, thoughtful.
"Well... it started during high school..."
"So you actually know him!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah, I know him. But, why does your dad want you to marry with that asshole of a man?"
"He's son of one of his acquaintances... but why is he so bad?"
"Does your dad actually know him?"
"I... I think so... but now that you ask, I'm not sure anymore"
Ymir sighed.
"Let's just say that he isn't the best person on this Earth" she said quickly.
"Did he do something to you?" I asked, curious and worried at the same time.
Ymir looked at me.
I noticed that she forced a smile. She also put her right hand on my shoulder.
"N-no! Of course not!" she said with a nervous voice "I could never let such a man do something to me!"
I looked suspiciously at her.
"Ymir..."
Ymir laughed nervously.
"Ahahah! Come on, Christa! Do you wanna eat something?! An ice cream, maybe?!"

Ymir took my arm and started to pull me away.
"Y-Ymir! You'll make me spill my coffee!" I started to scream, hoping that she would have slowed down.
But she didn't stop.

Ymir and I reached an ice cream shop and took two small cups. I took strawberry and she took peach.
We slowly walked away.

"You know?" I started, while I was finishing my coffee to be able to eat my ice cream "I don't know if coffee and ice cream are a good combination"
"Well, you can always spill the coffee on your ice cream, like if it was a topping" she said, doing it with half of her coffee.
"Do you think it will taste good?" I asked.
"Well, let's try! Take this"
Ymir gave me her cup with the remaining coffee, that I tried to hold with the same hand that was holding mine, while she was taking the plastic spoon to try her ice cream.

Once the spoon entered in her mouth, she took a bit of time to taste her combination. Once she swallowed, she looked at me.
"You know, that's not so bad" she exclaimed.
I returned her the coffee.
"Should I try it?" I said, hesitating a bit.
I actually didn't want to do the wrong move and ruin my ice cream.
"Try with mine. And, if you'll like it, you'll do it too" she said, smiling.
I nodded, then Ymir took her spoon, she put some ice cream and coffee on it, then she offered it to me.
"Open your mouth" she said.
I obeid.

It wasn't so bad. The peach ice cream and the coffee were a good combination.
"Do you like it?" Ymir asked.
I nodded, smiling.
"Yeah, maybe I'll try with mine too" I said.
Ymir smiled, then she rubbed my head with her hand.
"You're so cute, Christa" she said.
Then she folded a bit towards me and she kissed me.

REINER P.O.V.

While I was walking away from the ice cream shop, the cold ice cream in my hands, I noticed Historia walking with a girl, probably one of her friends.
I started to follow her, with the intention of saying 'hello' and maybe knowing her acquaintance.
But while I was increasing my speed to reach her, the girl that was walking with Historia turned a bit her head.
I stopped.
Was she... Ymir?!
What was she doing with Historia?!

I started to follow them again. Ymir wasn't the kind of person that had to spend her time with such a beautiful and soft girl like Historia.

While I was secretly following them, I noticed Ymir offering her spoon to Historia. The thing that shocked me was that she actually accepted it!
My heart stopped.
No.
Ymir couldn't have done such a thing to her!
That precious golden flower didn't have to fall into Ymir's temptations!
But, maybe, they were just friends... even if I knew Ymir so much to know that, to be that close to a girl, she wasn't looking just for friendship.

A few moments later, I saw what I hoped to never see.
Ymir folded a bit towards Historia and she kissed her.
I noticed how Historia wasn't doing anything to push her away. Instead, she was kissing her back.

I widened my eyes.
How could it be... Historia was... Ymir and her were... no.
No, she couldn't.
She had to marry me.

Did her parents know?
Well, of course not.
I had to tell them! They had to know that their daughter was hanging out with a girl like Ymir and that that damn girl wanted to ruin our wedding.
