I had hiccups, but they left while writing this.
Hiccups
Annie and Mikasa sat on the couch, Annie was wrapped in a blanket, sipping tea. Mikasa was wearing reading glasses, looking over a paper. Her back was slightly turned towards Annie, as she leaned to the light from the window, a comfortable silence between them.
A sound make Mikasa pause mid-sentence, she listened for a few seconds, but when she heard nothing new, she continued reading. Shortly after she started a new sentence she heard the sound again. She lowered the paper a bit, all her senses sharp.
When the soft sound penetrated the air again she turned around. Annie tilted her head a little to look at her. When she heard the sound again, it was accompanied by a shock running through Annie's body.
"Are those… hiccups?" she slowly took of her glasses.
Annie nodded, her body spasming again.
"Those are the cutest hiccups I've ever heard."
"Shut up, Ackerman."
Mikasa put the paper and her glasses on the small table in front of the couch and did the same with Annie's mug. Annie protested when her tea was taken away, a hiccup meddling with her words.
Mikasa wrapped her arms around the bundle that was Annie. Nuzzling her face against the other's hair. "You're so cute."
"Shut up, Mikasa." Annie tried to wriggle out of her hold, but couldn't do much with the way she had wrapped herself up in the blanket.
When she hiccupped again, Mikasa placed a kiss on her cheek.
"Geez, Mikasa, this isn't the time for this. I thought you had some paper to read." Annie protested.
"You're more important."
Annie blushed and let Mikasa shower her with kisses until her hiccups stopped without further protest.
"It's over." Mikasa almost sounded disappointed.
"Thank god." Annie said.
Mikasa pulled back and retrieved her glasses and paper. Annie finally wriggled herself out of the blanket and leaned towards the other girl.
"Mikasa."
"Hm?" she looked up.
Annie placed a kiss on her cheek. "I love you too."
Mikasa smiled, watching Annie settle back to drinking her tea before she returned her attention to the paper.
