AN: So yeah, I wrote something. In English, so expect some mistakes… i'm sorry !
Also, according to the Pacific Rim timeline, Sasha is 7 years older than Aleksis. So when they enter the Academy, he is 17 and she's 24, and that's incredibly cute.

1. First meeting

2015, they both enter the Jaeger academy. They don't know each other yet, but he notices her from across the conference room during the welcoming lecture. He's barely 17, and she's terrifying, but he knows she's the one he wants to drift with. Because she's the only one who isn't trembling in the crowd of students, and because her lips are red and her hair is died just like his.

So by lunchtime, when he has finally gathered enough courage to talk to her, he walks towards her table with a fierce look on his face. He stops right in front of her and says:

- We should merge together!

And the whole table burst into laughter because god it came out so wrong and why would he even say something so weird when he didn't even know her. She doesn't laugh. She looks at him with her eyebrow raised and tilts her head to the side. She looks at him with her sharp brown eyes and maybe, he thinks, maybe she sees something in him too.

And finally, she pushes an empty chair towards him and says:

-Sit down, kid.

And he's never been so happy in his whole life.
