Training and classes on Saturday were uneventful and went by slow. At dinner, I sat uncomfortably pressed between Bertholdt and Reiner as we listened to Mina, Hannah, and Marco make the plans to the lake the next day. Marco had a map and he and Jean were arguing that we go north instead of west and visit a pond that showed up on the map close to the camp. Mina and Hannah complained that it was much farther than the lake we already knew about, and we wouldn't know the condition of the lake until we got there.

More people had joined the group since we decided to go earlier in the week, and they were all crowded around the dining table that was originally only Marco, Mina, Bert, Reiner, and me. Being squished in between two men who were both larger than me in width and length made it impossible to eat. Bert and Reiner's elbows constantly bumped into me, and while Bertholdt apologized, Reiner snickered as he went out of his way to bump into me.

I pointedly ignored him throughout the meal, choosing to talk to Bertholdt instead. This only made him more persistent, and after he made me drop the soup in my spoon onto myself, I turned to glare at him, which made both him and Bert laugh loudly.

"You're not funny," I said, but I knew it wasn't convincing as I could barely keep myself from smiling.

I dabbed at my shirt with my napkin and sighed. The soup made the cloth feel warm and sticky against my chest and I stood up, "Since I guess I can't eat my dinner without getting covered in it, I'm done."

"I'll see you outside, right?" asked Reiner.

I smiled and nodded, assuring him that I hadn't forgotten about our plans to sneak out tonight.

I took changed into my casual clothes and showered quickly and found Reiner and Bert out on the porch to the classroom buildings, laughing and talking. Bertholdt saw me first, and instead of returning my smile right away, something else flashed across his face, betraying some other emotion. Was it pain? Fear?

Guilt rushed through me again. I had almost forgotten that Bertholdt was in love with Reiner, too. He was so good at hiding it, and he easily stepped aside for me, which made my guilt worse. I was selfish, and I knew that. Just like Reiner had told me when he confessed his feelings towards me, I couldn't let Reiner go even if it was the right thing to do.

Reiner turned to see me coming, and grinned, "Took you long enough."

"I wasn't gone long," I protested, but I knew he was just teasing.

"Some people wash themselves when they shower, Reiner," joked Bertholdt. "It helps with the smell."

"I smell like I've got daisies coming out of my ass, thank you."

Bertholdt and I laughed at his response, and the three of us stayed out on the porch laughing and talking until Bertholdt announced he was going to bed. Reiner and I stayed on the porch until Bertholdt walked away and left for the lake. I let Reiner lead the way, although I had learned the best tactics for sneaking out by now. There was never any instructors or officers around the side of camp with the obstacle courses at night. If you snuck in and out that way and walked around the back side of the buildings, it was very unlikely you'd be caught.

When we got out of hearing range of the camp, Reiner asked, "So are you sure about this still?"

"Of course, I am," I answered, with no hesitation this time, which seemed to satisfy Reiner, and he changed the subject.

"Why'd you shower if you knew you were going to be jumping in a lake?"

I rolled my eyes, "Because some idiot made me spill my soup all over myself."

"That could've been fixed with a rag. You'll just have to wash yourself again when we get back."

"Why? That water is clean, and I don't see how I'd be able to shower after curfew without getting caught."

He shrugged, "Fair enough."

When we got to the lake, we stood awkwardly for a moment before I told him to turn around. He obeyed without questioning and stepped away a few feet and turned around. I started taking off my clothes one by one, carefully folding them and setting them in the grass away from the muddy sand. Nervousness started to return to me when the realization hit me that Reiner was about to see me naked. My body hadn't developed as well as some of the girls' bodies my age. My body was covered in lean muscle more than the soft curves that most women had. The thickest part of me were where my thigh muscles and my breasts were probably smaller than Reiner's were.

After I was completely naked, I took a breath and asked, "How should I do this?"

He turned his head towards me and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I can't really jump in because there's nothing to jump off. There aren't even any trees close enough to jump in."

"I think just a running leap would satisfy the requirements."

I nodded and took a few steps away from the shore to get ready, "You can turn around by the way."

Reiner turned around with enthusiasm, which would've made me laugh except for how vulnerable I felt with being completely exposed. Reiner swallowed, looking up and down my body, "Have I ever told you that you're beautiful?"

I blushed and shook it off, "Okay. I'm ready."

I almost took off to run towards the shower when Reiner stopped me, "Wait. You're too close. You've got to get a good running start."

He grabbed my arm and lead e back several more feet, before nodding, "Okay, this is good enough. You've got to make it good one, though, or you have to do it again."

"You didn't say anything about that before."

He shrugged, "It's fair."

I decided not to argue about it and turned towards the water. I took off running and when I reached the water, I took two strides into the water before jumping forward. I thought I'd dive into the water, but instead I hit the water with a loud flop. Flopping into the water while naked made the sting worse.

When I got up out of the water, I saw Reiner laughing uncontrollably. Between cackles, he got out, "Are you- okay?"

"Yeah. I'm fine," I answered lamely, and he continued to laugh.

As he tried to recompose himself, I leaned back into the water. It was cool, and swimming bare was an oddly pleasant sensation.

"Are you going to get in or not?" I called out, and his grin wavered a little.

"You want me to get in too? I thought you were going to get out."

"It feels good in here, come on! You don't have to get naked if you don't want to!"

He hesitated before starting pull off his clothes. He didn't tell me to turn around as he undressed, so I figured that meant I could look at him freely. Reiner's sculpted body was always something I enjoyed admiring. When he realized I was watching him he grinned and started to remove his pants even slower and turned to the side so I could get a better view of his ass. I rolled my eyes but didn't complain.

Reiner left his underwear on, and he slowly waded into the water to me. I envied Reiner's boldness and confidence. I had trouble making myself stand in the water to expose the rest of my body, much less flaunting myself the way Reiner seemed to do, but then I didn't have a body like Reiner's either.

When he reached me, he pulled me close and kissed me deeply. Before I could protest, he lifted me out of the water, so he wouldn't have to bend so far to reach me. The cold air hit my skin and I shivered as Reiner kept kissing, moving slowly from my lips to my neck. I wrapped legs around his waist, gasping softly as he sucked on the crook of my neck, and I could feel a bulge growing and pressing into the back of my thigh.

Abruptly, Reiner pulled away from my neck and started to walk back to the shore, still carrying me. The way he held me close felt protective and sweet, and I allowed him to carry me out of the water as I clung hard to him for warmth.

"Did you not want to swim?" I asked.

"I had other plans in mind," he explained, and his hot breath against my wet skin made me shiver again. "We can swim after if you still want to."

Once we reached the shore, Reiner continued to carry me towards the grass and laid us down, putting me on my back, and hovered over me without putting any weight on me. He resumed his assault with his lips, starting again with my mouth. I returned his enthusiasm and whined a little when he left my lips to trail down to my neck again. He continued down to my chest, and although I couldn't see I knew he was leaving behind marks, but I loved the sensations too much to care at that moment.

When he reached my breasts, he pulled back and placed one hand on my ribs below my right breast, "You're still all right with this, right? This is okay?"

"Yes," I said, a little breathless even though I was laying down and not doing anything. "You don't have to ask every time. Do whatever you want."

"Whatever I want?" he repeated, sounding surprised.

I raised my head to look at him, and I bit my lower lips when I saw how gorgeous he looked. His face was above the space in between my breasts. His golden eyes glowed in the moonlight, his hair was rumpled just enough to be messy, and his lips were slightly swollen from kissing. The lustful heat in between my legs grew deeper just from the way he looked at me.

"Please. I trust you."

He lifted his hand to move from my hands to squeeze my right boob and I gasped. He lowered his face to the left and kissed and sucked at the mound of flesh, still palming the other breast. When he lips made its way around and up until he reached the nipple at the center. As he started to suck and nibble, the other hand gently pinched my right nipple. A loud moan left my throat, and my backed curve almost on its own, pushing my chest into his face. He took this as encouragement to squeeze and suck harder before switching breasts. He repeated the same sequence with his mouth on my right boob, although this time the build up to the nipples felt more like teasing.

After finishing, he leaned back and pushed my legs further apart. Once he decided I was in a good position, he bent his head down and kissed where I didn't expect him to. My legs bent and raised slightly, and he rearranged me so one leg was draped over his shoulder and the other lay out to the side. As he continued to work with his tongue, he slipped one finger inside of me, and I gasped. He allowed me a moment to get adjusted to the feeling before slowly moving his finger in and out, and then adding a second finger. I was glad we were far away from the camp because my moans were getting louder each time his tongue lapped over me. The sensations were much more intense and pleasurable then I imagined. I had tried doing what Ymir had instructed me to in the showers, but I couldn't do anything like this. My hips started to buck into his mouth as I tried to make myself relax.

He didn't seem to mind or notice the way I squirmed beneath him and continued to trace the same patterns with his tongue over my clit and push in and out with his fingers. My head started to roll back as my mind got increasingly hazy with the stimulation and pleasure. My incoherent moans turned into breathing out Reiner's name over and over, which encouraged him to swirl his tongue at a quicker speed. I was reaching my peak, and my legs were starting to shake as I neared the edge and went over. Waves of pleasure washed through me as I cried out and came undone under Reiner's mouth.

Reiner pulled away and smiled down at me, "You're so damn beautiful."

He leaned forward and down to kiss me. The taste of his lips wasn't him anymore, or anything else I could recognize.

"That tastes awful."

He chuckled, "It's you."

"I taste awful."

He pressed his forehead to mine and said, "You're exaggerating."

I could now feel his large member through his underwear, which was still soaking wet from the lake. I went to move, and he let me sit up and remove the underwear. The size of it was overwhelming. I did not expect it to be that long or thick, and I was amazed that it was supposed to fit inside of me. I reached out to wrap my hand around him, but he grabbed my hand and pressed a kiss to the back of my hand.

"Not tonight. This is your first time; this is all about you."

"But that's not fair."

"Oh, trust me, I'm getting my enjoyment out of this. Just lay back and relax."

I did as he said as he leaned over to where his piles of clothes were and dug in the pockets. When he returned, he had a condom one hand while pumping his other hand over his cock and put the condom on. The sight made me pulse quicken and when he settled back down on top of me I bit my bottom lip in nervousness and excitement.

"Are you ready?" I nodded my response, and he said, "This is will hurt a little."

"I know. I can handle that."

He smiled and adjusted my legs and himself. I could feel the head of him against me and he pressed his hands in the ground on either side of my head before slowly pushing in. It was agonizingly slow, and he stopped and stayed still before pulling out partway and pushing in again. The feeling wasn't extremely painful, but it was uncomfortable. The sensations were foreign, and my body didn't seem to like being stretched and full.

Full of Reiner, said a sly voice in the back of my head, and a shiver ran up my spine at the thought.

"Is this okay?" he asked.

I nodded again, and said, "This is all right, you can go faster."

He didn't bother asking me twice this time and pushed in with less caution. I gasped slightly as he started to fuck me faster, and I looked up so I could at his face. He met my eyes and immediately leaned down to catch my lips in a messy kiss, still rolling his hips into me. I grabbed onto his arms and kissed back. Reiner broke the kiss and buried his head in the crook of my neck, breathing soft, deep moans against my skin.

The discomfort was starting to ebb away, and I was able to relax a bit more. As my body acclimatized to having him inside me, I started to wonder what the fuss was about this. It wasn't bad, but there wasn't any of the mind-blowing pleasure that people talked so highly of. Then Reiner's cock brushed up against something inside me that made me understand. I cried out in bliss, and he must've realized that was the right spot, because he continued to fuck against that same spot repeatedly. The sensations brought stars to my eyes, and I whimpered out Reiner's name in pleasure.

When he heard his name leave my lips, Reiner started to increase his pace again and push in even deeper. He pulled himself back up and grabbed onto my hips as I continued to cry out and moan. I tried to bite my fist to quiet myself, but he stopped me.

"No one can hear you but me, and I want to hear you."

I obeyed and continued to let myself yell his name and the heat in my core started to build up again. Before I could warn him, and explosion of pleasure rushed through me in waves and my walls constricted and pulsed around Reiner before completely relaxing.

Reiner stilled when he felt me come undone around him, and then continued his thrusts. The overstimulation made me whine and cry louder, but it wasn't long until I felt Reiner start to shake above me and he became still.

After he pulled out of me, I sat up a little and watched him discard the condom and return to wrap his arms around me. I ended up back in the grass, but this time Reiner was on his back and I had laid my head on his chest.

"Do you still want to swim?" he asked after a few moments, breaking the silence, and making me jump.

"Yes, I do," I knew Reiner was just joking, but I got up and dragged him to the water with me.

I leaned back and floated on my back in the water, washing all the dirt and grass off me. Reiner waded next to me, more preoccupied with actively washing the dirt off him. I closed my eyes and let myself blissfully relax, and a few seconds later a splash of water hit my face. I yelped and sat up quickly, only for Reiner to catch me and hold me bridal style in the water.

"I love you," he smiled down at me, ignoring the grumpy look on my face. "You're not regretting anything?"

"No. I love you too, I'd never regret anything with you, and I'm glad I got over my anxiety. You're amazing," I smiled back at him and he looked away towards the shore, so I couldn't see his face. I caught a glimpse of a shy, guilty look before he turned his head completely, which was unlike him. Reiner was never shy or ashamed about anything.

"Reiner?" I asked, and he looked back at me, the odd look gone and replaced with his normal grin.

"I'm glad you think so, Princess," he pulled me closer to kiss me softly before saying, "but we need to get back."

I agreed and reluctantly got out of the water to get dressed and walk towards camp. We took our time joking, stumbling, laughing, and holding hands.

The next morning, we went left and went on the trip to the lake with the others, and after bothering Annie all through breakfast, I convinced her to come last minute and let me try to teach her how to swim again. Sasha was helping me again, and we were making good progress with Annie, which was partially contributed to Annie's previous athletic capabilities.

Halfway through the day, Connie and Thomas started making an uproar on the shore, and next to them, Eren, Armin, and Marco had disgusted looks on their faces. I was confused, as was everyone else in the water, until Connie held up a used condom for everyone to see, "Look what I found!"

Oh shit, I thought, horror flowing through me. Beside me, Sasha yelled, "Why are you touching it?!"

"Ew," said Annie under her breath, but as I was still supporting her under the water, I still heard it and I could feel my face turn red. Luckily Annie didn't notice, and I covered up quickly by agreeing with her.

"Completely disgusting."

Later, after Annie insisted that we'd helped her enough and we leave her alone, I sought out Reiner, who was crouched in the water, and wrapped my arms around his neck and floated behind him. To everyone else, it looked like a sweet couple's gesture, but only Reiner could hear me hiss in his ear, "You didn't throw it away? You just tossed it in the grass?"

"What did you think I did with it?" he whispered back.

"I don't know."

"What could I have done with it? Did you expect me to carry it back to camp?"

"You could've thrown it away somewhere better or tied it up to throw away later."

"I didn't know Connie was going to be rummaging in the grass there. Besides, it doesn't matter. No one knows."

"No one knows what?"

We looked to see Marco wading towards us, but thankfully they only seemed to have heard the last part of what Reiner said.

"No one knows that you suck Jean's dick at night," responded Reiner without missing a beat.

"I d-do not!" Marco sputtered out, and I went with it to occupy his attention.

"You know, it's okay Marco, we still love you, although you could do better than Jean."

"You two aren't funny," Marco said while crossing his arms.

"I'm not being funny," I insisted. "You really can do better than Jean."

Reiner laughed at my comment, and said, "You know I'm kidding."

Marco rolled his eyes but looked less upset and didn't ask what we were talking about again before walking away.

"You're an awfully good liar," I commented after Marco was out of earshot again.

Reiner shrugged, "That wasn't that good of lie."

"Maybe not, but it was quick."

In front of us, Connie and Sasha were starting to challenge other people to chicken fights. Reiner grinned and asked if I wanted to join, and I nodded. I climbed onto Reiner's shoulders while calling out to the rest that we would accept their challenge.

A/N: This was on of the hardest chapters for me to write, so if you think I did well, please leave a review! This chapter, like the last few, came out later than I wanted due to getting preoccupied with my classes and studying, but summer break starts next week for me and I hope to get on a steady schedule for writing these updates after that. I'm also thinking that this will be the last chapter in the training arc, as I'm ready to get to the action. If anyone is interested thinks they want more in the training squad arc, I could write more and post them as side pieces or flashbacks. Thank you for reading!
