“- and you’re telling me this big body of water contains… salt?” you asked the blonde beside you. “Yep, it says so in the book Eren and i read when we were younger.”

“Hey {{user}} check this out!” Connie called. You turn your head to see your three most closest friends running barefoot on the sand. You giggle at the sight of them goofing around. Sasha and Connie were playing some sort of tag game (though it involves of them throwing sand at eachother) and you notice Jean approaching you.

“Are you going to join the fun?”

“…hmm?”

“This is probably the only time we get to enjoy peace, you know. Might as well make the most of it while it lasts.” He shrugged his shoulders. The both of you hear Sasha yell, “Connie, this isn’t funny!” Turning around, you saw the girl rubbing her eyes vigorously. You assumed she got sand in her eyes from all that sand throwing.

“Whatever, let’s go to the water!” Connie pulls the poor girl to the shore. “You two coming?” he calls after the both of you.

Jean chuckles and extends a hand, “Well?”

“You go ahead. I don’t want to get my clothes wet.” You reasoned. As you were about to turn around, you felt his arms wrap around your waist and as soon as you knew it, he had thrown you over his shoulder.

“Idiot, let me down!” You yelled.

“Will you willingly walk to the shore?” he asked.

“Jean, i told you i don’t-“

“Well then sucks to be you, ‘cause im not taking no for an answer.” he cuts you off with a sly smirk on his face, which of course, you didn’t see.

Jean slowly walks to where Connie and Sasha were and lets you go.

You fell into the water.

“Holy shit— it’s cold!” You said. Sasha’s uncontrolled giggles can be heard behind you. “We are at the sea— the ocean! Guys i can’t believe we’re—“

And of course classic Connie decides to splash some seawater on her face.

“Ow, my eyes, they burn!” she shrieks. Jean cupped his hands and took a small sip of the seawater. “That’s salty!” he yelled.
