Dances and Dreams - Ymir x Historia


Pairing: Ymir/Historia

Genres: Romance/Angst

Warnings: None


"Step, two, three four, step, two, three, four and turn." Ymir said, laughing when Historia tripped over her dress.

"I don't get it, 'Mir!" She said, sounding frustrated.

"Here." She walked over, grabbing her hands. "You spin around while I grab my hand, and then a slightly hesitant step, and—"

"But Ymir! I can't do it!"

"You were able to learn the flamenco easily."

"That was something we did for fun! This is for an event and I feel scared."

"Then don't think of it that way. Just imagine it's us, going out on a romantic date, dancing in the park…"

"Ymir!" Historia giggled, blushing.

"What?"

"Why would we do the Ländeler on a date?"

"Because…."

There was silence.

"Because, Historia, I lo—"

"Milady Historia!"

It was a dream. All a dream.

And she looks up at the portrait, the memories assaulting her.


"I would have married you if I had the chance."

"Be strong!"

"I didn't just join the Survey Corps for you."

"I HAVE TO SAVE KRISTA!"

"I love you."


Tears. Falling one by one. Until she sobs. Crying her heart out for the one she has lost. Glossy hair, strong arms and brown eyes one could get lost in.

The flow of the familiar Ländeler, carrying her away on fond memories.

And for a brief moment, she finds herself dancing with the dead.

But only in her heart.


Well, that was depressing! Also, updating during school hours. Because what other time would any sane person update a story?

Jk, jk.

Ionie: Please tell me that's a crackship. I'll write crackships, but seriously. That's a new one for me. But I'll still write it.
