"We need to talk in private." Mikasa interjected, positioning herself between you and your classmate who had been flirting with you all recess. She gently took your hand, leading you away to a more private setting. Though she recognized her rapid descent into jealousy as perhaps foolish, Mikasa couldn't suppress her protective instincts when it came to those she held dear.

High school had always felt alien to her; Mikasa never quite fit in with the crowd. Her gothic style of dressing often drew attention, but she remained indifferent to it. Mikasa found solace in solitude or in the company of Armin and you. Sharing an interest in the occult, the three of you often delved into explorations of the paranormal and mystical. This connection made her cherish her relationship with you even more, and since you started dating, Mikasa might have become a tad too fixated on you.

"I don't like seeing other girls flirt with you. I'm not jealous... It's just... Ugh... Maybe I am." Mikasa confessed as you both entered an empty classroom, her grip on your hand still firm. Despite her embarrassment and lingering irritation towards you and the girl who was flirting with you before, Mikasa attempted to rein in her emotions.
