A/N: Real quick thank you to everyone for reading!


As Pock fainted, Pieck stood up and went to her bathroom, taking a short shower to clean herself. She changed into clean clothes and went and began to tend to Porco, grabbing a towel and rolling up her sleeves, and-

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

"Pieck? It's Reiner!"

Shit.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

"What do I do?" Pieck spoke softly to herself. She stood. The couch was facing parallel to the door, so if Reiner got too far into the door, he would see some scarring images.

"Pieck?" Reiner stood outside the door, patiently awaiting his friend.

"Coming!" Pieck dropped the towel over Porco. It was just big enough to cover up his genitalia and parts of his legs. Pieck hoped that would be enough, and that Reiner would be gone soon.

Pieck arrived at the door, brushing herself off and sighing. She cracked open the door, a little less than halfway, and stood in the opening. "Hey, Reiner. What's up?"

Reiner was caught off guard by her odd entrance. "Pieck? What's up?" Reiner looked over Pieck's shoulder, catching a glimpse of Porco on the couch.

"Nothing! I'm just in my apartment, alone. No one else is here. What do you need?" Pieck moved more in front of the door, closing it a little more behind her.

Reiner held back many emotions, mostly a large and hearty laugh. Porco had finally done it. Ever since he returned from Paradis, almost every conversation between him and Porco or him and Pieck alone had been about the other. They had both been waiting for the other, and it seemed that Pieck had gone and done it.

"Alright then. Well, I was just looking for Galliard. Have you seen him since the war meeting earlier?" Reiner crossed his arms. "I know it's been a few hours, but you generally know where he is. He's usually with you."

Pieck blushed. "Nope! I haven't seen him since the war meeting." She looked down, then back at Reiner. "He, uh, he said something about going to the festival later? I'm not entirely sure."

"Huh. Without you? That's got to be a first." Reiner put his hand under his chin, looking down to the floor.

"Yeah." Pieck forced a small laugh, and twiddled her thumbs behind her back. "So, anything else I can do for you?"

"Yeah, if you see Galliard, send him to the festival. Zeke and I wanted to talk to him, but Zeke had other matters to attend to. I just thought you might know where to find him." Reiner spoke softer than usual.

"I will do that."

"Thanks, Pieck. Much appreciated." Reiner turned to leave.

"No problem! See you, Vice Chief Braun!" Pieck did a sarcastic salute as Reiner walked away, turning around the corner. She quickly went back inside, closing the door.

Phew. That was way too close for my liking. Let's just hope he didn't see anything. I don't know if I'm ready for us to be public information at this point.

Pieck walked back into the living room, using the towel to clean up Porco and put his pants back on, and cuddled up to his warm body, catching a quick nap.


That's all she wrote! This chapter is significantly shorter than any of my other chapters for this story, and will (hopefully) be the only one that is shorter than one thousand words.

Anyways, thanks so much for reading! I don't see many PokkoPikku stories on here, and even less are Rated M. Hoping I can help fill that hole!
