Chapter 1: New Home

Friday

He finally arrived at the central station, the only luggage he had was a big bag. The 18 year old boy moved to a small town to study, it's the first time he lives alone, he got a small room in a little residence. The brown haired boy took his bag and headed south, the residence wasn't far from the station, just ten minutes by foot.

After five minutes of walk he noticed a young blonde boy who walked behind him, after another two minutes the blonde catched up with him.

„Hey! You're Eren Yaeger, right?" the blonde said with a friendly expression.

Eren was caught by surprise and was confused for a second.

„Y-Yes, how do you know? And you are?" Eren replied.

„Oh! I'm sorry, that was rude, I'm Armin Arlert, and I know you cause we live in the same residence." the blonde boy answered with his friendly expression.

„It's the first time I'm here, my parents organised this for me, so how exactly do you know how I look?" Eren asked, still in confusion.

„The owner of the residence got a photo from your parents, he showed us." Armin replied.

Eren scratched his head „Makes sense, so you study here as well?".

The blonde boy nodded „But I'm already here for a year, I finished school early."

„Hm, so you are a genius?" Eren grinned.

Armin grinned „Some people say so, anyway, here we are."

The two boys stood in front of small residence with asian architecture, surrounded by hedge and trees. Eren knew from the photos his parents showed him that there was a court in the middle of the building, surrounded by the rooms. He also knew that it got two big bathrooms, one for male and one for female, a common kitchen and a common living room.

The two boys went to the entrance as Armin stopped Eren.

„Take of your shoes, the owner is.. let's say he likes everything clean" Armin told Eren why slipping out of his shoes.

Eren nodded and took of his shoes, afterwards the two boys went in. Inside Eren saw a short man with black hair and a cold look, around thirty years old. The man looked at them and nodded towards Armin before he focused Eren.

„Hello, I'm Eren Yaeger! Nice to meet you!" Eren began.

„I know who you are kid, I see you already learned the first rule" the man answered as he took a look at Erens shoes.

Eren nodded „Yes, Armin told me."

„Good, two rules, stay clean, don't cause any trouble and we two won't have any problem with each other, understood?"

Eren nodded again „Of course!"

„Good, I'm Levi Ackermann, but just call me Levi. Armin will show you your room." the short man said and threw keys towards Eren.

Eren caught the keys and nodded once more.

„Come on, you're in the room next to me, if you have any questions or need help don't hesitate and ask" the blonde boy said with his friendly expression.

Their rooms were in the rear of the residence, next to the bathrooms. Eren unlocked the door and went int, it was a small room with a bed, a table, a seat, a wardrobe and one middle sized window which showed him the backyard. He took his clothes from the bag and placed them in the wardrobe, he placed his laptop on the table and then called his mother.

„Eren? Everything okay? You already in your new home?" his mother asked immediately.

„Yes mum, I'm okay, everything is fine!" the boy answered.

„Please try to make friends okay? And if anything bothers you, call us!" his mother replied.

„Yes mum, I'm not a child anymore!" Eren replied.

„I know, please call us from time to time, okay?" his mother replied.

„I will, don't worry mum, I have to go now" Eren answered.

„Bye Eren, we are proud of you!" his mother replied before Erne hung.

Eren sighed before he left his room and sat down in the green court of the residence playing with his mobile phone.

„Oh! You must be the new one!" a voice from behind said.

Eren slowly turned around and faced a short blonde girl.

„Uh, yes I'm the new one, my name is-" Eren answered before he gut interrupted by the girl.

„Eren Yaeger! I know, nice to meet you, I'm Kirsta Lenz but just call me Krista." the girl smiled.

„Thanks, can I ask you something?" Eren replied.

„Of course, what's it?" Krista smiled at him.

„How many people live here at the moment? I already know Armin and now you, and of course the owner Levi." Eren asked.

„Ah I see, you already know Armin, so there are only Sasha and Levis cousin Mikasa left."

„Is Sasha a-?" Eren wanted to ask before he got interrupted again.

„She's a girl!" Krista laughed.

„Okay, thank you, and I guess you all study?" Eren asked.

Krista nodded „Almost, Armin and me study History, Mikasa studies sports, only Sasha doesn't study, she works in a bakery. What about you?"

Eren nodded once more „I study sports as well."

The blonde girl nodded and smiled at him „I see, well I have to go, I have to cook today, I guess we see us later? We always eat together, we are like a small family."
Eren nodded, still thinking about everything Kirsta said. She smiled at him once more and then headed to the kitchen. For half an hour he just relaxed on his back in the court, he was half asleep when Armins face showed up above him.

„Oi, time to eat!" the blonde boy told him.

Eren rubbed his eyes and stood up, the two boys went to the living room, as they came in Krista already served the dinner. Levi and a girl were already waiting at the table. The brown haired girl looked at Eren and grinned.

„So you are Eren? Nice to meet you, I'm Sasha!" she said with a grin on her face.

„Same here, where can I sit down?" Eren replied.

Levi pointed on the place next to where Armin sat down at the moment. Eren sat down and looked at the food, Krista made a salad with chicken stripes. In the same moment Krista sat down next to Sasha, only the place between Levi and Eren was empty.

„I guess we can start, Mikasa is probably late." Levi told them.

They sat at the table for half an hour, Sasha was telling about her day at the bakery and complained about the customers, Krista and Armin talked about their history classes and Levi ate in silence. When everyone finished Levi stood up.

„Okay, Armin you do the dishes, take Eren with you" Levi said before he left the room.

Armin stood up, took the dishes and then waved Eren with him. Krista and Sasha left the room as well. When they were in the kitchen Armin showed Eren everything before they started to wash the dishes.

„And? You feel good here already?" Armin asked Eren.

Eren nodded „Yea, everyone is nice, Levi is a little bit cold and strict but I guess he is alright, right?"

Armin grinned and nodded „He is, a little bit weird, but he really cares about everyone."

„And what about the other girl? Is she always late?" Eren asked out of curiosity.

„Just at Fridays, she's training." the blonde replied.

Eren nodded „She is Levis cousin right? Are they similar to each other?"

„Yes Levi is her cousin. And about the other question, kind of, at least at first glance, if you get to know her better she is quite different. You have to know, here parents were murdered when she was eight years old." Armin replied with a lower voice.

Eren looked in shock at Armin „That's horrible, is Levi her only left relative?"

Armin nodded as he finished the dishes.

Eren sighed „I won't mention it, I guess she doesn't like to talk about it."

Armin nodded again as they both left to the court „That's right, anyway, I go back in my room. I guess we see us tomorrow."

Eren nodded and again, sat down in the court. „I'll stay here a little longer."

Armin vanished in his room and Eren was alone in the court. He relaxed there for about half an our before he fell asleep.
